Musicians find fatigue, friends aboard "Bailey Bus"
By JEANNE FOY Staff Reporter
The KU bus system is rivaled by the "Bailey Bus," a bus patronized almost exclusively by music education and music therapy majors.
The "Bailey Bus" is not part of KU's official bus system, nor does it cost 40 cents to ride. All that is needed is a strong pair of legs and the desire to walk from Murphy Hall to Bailey Hall in 10 minutes or less.
The "Bailey Bus" is the nickname music education and music therapy bus. The bus is operated by the Musician's Academy.
For music education and music therapy students, life on campus consists of trudging endlessly between Murphy and Bailey because education classes are in Bailey and music classes are in Murphy.
make their frequent trips from Murphy to Railey together.
"Everyone usually walks back and forth together, and it's a good chance to meet people, except it's a hard way to friend." Carla Young, Colby senior, said.
JAYE GEORGE, Shawne sophomore, said, "Nobody told me my freshman year to schedule all my classes in either Bailey or Murphy, so I
spent my freshman year bouncing around."
George said that after class ended in either Murphy or Bailey, a student could arrive on time for class in the building only if the previous class was dismissed as soon as the whistle went off, no instruments had to be put away and the buses outside of Bailey did not have to be dodged.
Otherwise, forget it, she said.
Young said that when she got out of Bailey, she was late for class at Murphy, and when she got out of Murphy, she was late for class at Bailey.
JIM MAXWELL, Cameron, Mo. senior, said the problem of arriving on class to work was made more difficult during the week and Murphy kept the same time.
"There's nothing you can do about it," she said.
Young said by the time she made it to Bailey from Murpry, she felt as if she was going to die.
In Murphy, the opposite faces of one clock have different times. he said.
After reaching Bailey, she has to climb up another flight of stairs to reach the first floor, so she then can climb up the stairs to the third floor, Young said.
of my freshman year, I discovered the elevator in Bailey. If you're on time, don't take the elevator. If you're late, it doesn't matter."
STUDENTS could use the elevator in Bailey, but George and Young agreed that it probably was the slowest elevator on campus.
Young said she now was more physically fit than when she started attending KU.
"By the time you're a senior, your calves are rocks," she said. "The first three weeks I was at KU, I'd sit and rest on the bench at the top of the stairs."
Now I don't even notice the bench when I walk up the stairs."
She said a student sometimes could use the long distance between the two buildings to his advantage.
"If you wake up late, you can run to Bailey and people think you're coming from Murphy," she said.
AND TO AVOID boredom, the daily trek can be varied. Young said.
She said her favorite in cold weather was to walk to the bottom floor of Wescoe and take the elevator to the third floor.
"In cold weather, the elevator route is definitely the best," she said.
Water pollution cause unclear

The effect of industries and agriculture on ground water, the country's largest source of drinking water, is unclear, with some researchers saying they rubine the water and others saying no scientific evidence exists to prove
Ground water is the water that is trapped in aquaenes beneath the earth's
Jerome Welch, assistant scientist for the Kansas Geological Survey, said past farming and industrial practices had created problems in the quality of ground water through erosion and the introduction of harmful chemicals.
But Dennis Lane, a professor of civil engineering who has done research on ground water pollution for three years, said that the contamination of ground water had occurred.
JOHN HOYT, owner of O'Hoyt's RainSoft Water Conditioning, 409 N.
2nd St., said 86 percent of the water used in the United States was ground
Lane said the two kinds of contamination that occurred were natural and manmade. Natural contamination has gone on for millions of years. Concern for manmade contamination has increased since the 1960s, he said.
"The general ground water situation is not being impacted by manmade sediment."
Most of the problems created by agriculture and industry are in surface water, where the introduction of pollution is a serious problem, he said.
Welch said most practices that caused contamination of water had been stopped by Environmental Protection Agency regulations, but problems created by these practices still had to be solved.
HOYT, who agrees with Welch on the problem of ground water contamination, said the only way to solve the problem is through soil purification. Since the water is trapped
He said government studies showed that 46 percent of the ground water in the country was polluted beyond redemption.
underground, it cannot be flushed or treated.
Welch said purifying water was a costly process, but it was cheaper than using chlorine.
The biggest problem in Kansas comes from poor farming techniques, he said. Erosion and the seepage of chemicals used by farmers in fertilizing and pest and weed control are the biggest causes of the problem.
LAEI SAID studies of agriculture run- off he had done showed that little transport of contaminants through the soil occurred. He said his studies had measured the content of water running in fields and water seeping down in fields.
Lane said he had also studied other research over the past three years, and none of it had uncovered any problems with ground water contamination.
