Commission OKs cab license for Jayhawk Towing
By DOUG CUNNINGHAM
Staff Reporter
-The Lawrence City Commission last night approved a taxacib license for Lon Faler, owner of Jayhawk Towing. 1545 N. Third St.
Faler said he would start his taxicab service, the second in Lawrence, as soon as possible with two or three taxicabs.
The commission also voted 4-1 to have the city staff prepare an amendment to the parts of the city code dealing with taxicabs, which now states that all taxicabs must have taximeters.
However, Faler said he would not need any
taximeters because he planned to charge a flat rate for each trin within the city.
MAYOR MARCI FRANCSCO voted against drawing up the ordinance for what Commissioner Barkley Clark said should be emergency passage.
She said this ordinance should be no different from any other.
The commission also directed the staff to prepare an ordinance that allowed for a system of telecommunication.
The commission had received a letter from Tim Miller, 395 Ohio St., asking that the city take some action to alleviate what he said was a parking problem in the Oread neighborhood.
He said that the city's 48-hour limit on parking in one spot on a city street was too short and that it forced some residents to unnecessarily drive their cars.
COMMISSIONER DON RINNS dissented and said the city was inviting legal problems by setting up such a permit system.
The commission also discussed the future role of the Downtown Improvement Committee, which assisted the commission in selecting a citywide plan for the proposed redevelopment of the downtown area.
Francisco noted that the committee had a meeting scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Monday at City
The commission also discussed the site plan it approved last week for a bus depot at the southwest corner of Sixth and Michigan streets.
Francisco said that one reason the site plan had been approved was that the lot was an existing lot of record, or one which had been on file with the city for a certain time.
The commission recently received a letter stating that the lot for the proposed bus depot was approved.
The commission agreed to discuss the matter next week.
Strike
THE NEW SCHEDULE, unlike any other proposed during the negotiations, calls for a nine-game regular season, including a makeup game and one final game played, as scheduled, Jan 30 at Pasadena, Calif.

camps today for the first time since the strike was called Sept. 21.
"The long battle has finally come to a tentative conclusion," said Ed Garvey, executive director for the union. "We demonstrated solidarity and the players demonstrated, once and for all, that the players are the most important element of the game. Dan Rooney (president of the
Pittsburgh Steelers) said it best when he said, 'Now we're in a partnership.'
The 28 owners must also agree to the settlement but, like the vote of the union's rank and file, that is also expected to be a formality. The owners are to gather in New York today for the vote.
"ITS PRETTY a normality," said Jim Miller, director of information on the NPL Management Council. "As long as the executive recommends it the owners usually go along."
The Management Council said it would not elaborate on the agreement.
"We'll have plenty to say after ratification," Miller said.
The breakthrough seemed to come at 6:20 p.m. Jack Dollon, executive director for the Managers' Group, said: "It's a terrific moment."
site of the negotiations and announced that he, Garvey and Upshaw had reached an agreement.
"The proposal is really nothing different than we presented last night except it was a maturing process," Donlan said at the time. "We're happy with the settlement."
ACCORDING TO a union spokesman, Garvey and Upshaw met with the executive committee beginning at 7:10 p.m. They issued a statement 90 minutes later saying "certain democratic procedures" had to be followed before a settlement could be completed.
Mark Murphy, the player representative for Washington and a member of the executive committee, said the committee did not take an actual vote on accepting the proposal but recommended to the 28 player reps that they agree to the offer.
When asked what the vote was among the player repons, Tom Condon of the Kansas City
Chiefs and executive committee, said: "I don't want to comment on that."
The proposal that brought to an end the first in-season strike in the league's 69-year history is nearly the total sum that the union demanded in earlier talks. However, the contract will cover five years, with $1.3 billion going to players beginning in 1983 through 1986.
THE REMAINING $300 million will be distributed this season, with a portion of that money already tied up in player contracts previously negotiated in addition to the $60 million bonus pool earlier proposed by the Management Council.
Turkey
"It's a lot of money, particularly this year," said Kansas City Chiefs president Jack Steadman. "It's a big, very lucrative contract for the players. The trade-off is that we'll have five years of peace. It was an expensive exercise, not only for the players but the owners."

off the ground and look at it, then just set it down in the same place.
"A turkey is a very stupid animal."
"A turkey is a very stupid animal."
BUT AL Adams, a poultry specialist at Kansas State University, said he thought turkeys were rather intelligent birds.
"They have a personality — more of one than a chicken has at least," he said. "I've never tried to hunt turkeys, but people who do it are one of the hardest wild animals to shoot."
"They have a lot of inmate intelligence. Adams said there were not many turkeys let in."
"We are one of the smaller turkey states." he said. "We grow maybe 80,000 or 90,000 turkeys. At one time we were a big turkey producing state."
Kansas used to produce about a million turkeys a year, he said.
TURKEY FARMS left Kansas because most of the processing plants closed down and because shipping to the nearest plant in Nebraska became too expensive, he said.
David Smith, Douglas County agricultural extension agent, said the turkey industry was very commercial, with some farms having as many as 100,000 turkeys. Turkey producers left the fertile plains of Kansas for less productive soil.
"In some of the regions where turkeys are grown, it's not really good farmland," he said.
Adams said that the trend in turkey farming was toward confinement but that many Midwestern farms still left their turkeys to graze.
Call them stupid, call them fat, call them out of the pasture. But don't call them late for supper, because they are not only good for Thanksgiving dinner, they are also mean.
