University Daily Kansan, October 26, 1982 Page 7 Panhellenic selects officers for 1983 The KU Panhellenic Council selected new officers recently, and those women are preparing to assume their duties as the KU Panhellenic president said yesterday. Officers were selected by representatives from each sorority, said Jan Fink, the president. The nominees were evaluated on the basis of written applications, interviews and house affiliation. "Each house can only be represented once, and no house can have the same office twice in a row." Fink said. "We try to keep a constant balance of representation, but we're also looking for qualified people." "SOME HOUSES are on this year who haven't been on for a while. We try to spread it out." Fink said the old officers would coach the new officers one-on-one in the next three months. "We do it this way to give them an inside scoop on rush from the very beginning," she said. "After that, I'll be there to help and advise, but it's their show and I'm confident that they can do a good job." NEW OFFICERS are: president, Allyson Beasley, Overland Park junior; vice president for membership, Lynn Huss, Omaha, Neb. junior; vice president for pledges, Andrea Mitchell, Rochester, Minn., sophomore; vice president for campuses, Sophomore; sophomore; public relations coordinator, Teddi Banks, Enterprise sophomore, treasurer, Elizabeth Ault, Leavenworth junior; secretary, Leigh Forbes. Lawrence sophomore. Beardsley said that her main hope for the coming year would be to create a more positive attitude towards rush, with fewer decisions which new members are selected. "WE REALLY NEED better communication among the houses during rush." Beardside said. "We have to good communication before rush starts." This year's officers created a scholarship committee and a judiciary committee, re-organized Greek Week and rewrite the Panhellenic History Book. They also sponsored a dance to benefit victims of muscular dystrophy. Prof's plan would put waste to work By BRET WALLACE Staff Reporter A KU professor would like to use the discarded by the University to help students. William Smith, professor of electrical engineering, said recently that enough waste paper was generated on campus to supply the owned solid waste boiler for six months. Under a plan that Smith designed, the University would build a solid waste boiler near the current boiler, which is run by natural gas, he said. The new boiler would generate the steam for heating campus buildings. Three-fourths of the waste paper in Lawrence goes to the city landfill, he said. If used to power a boiler, it could supply the university $600,000 a year on fuel costs. SMITH, WHO HAS advocated the use of a solid waste boiler for the University since 1975, said his plan also included converting air conditioners, which he steam driven, to electricity, so the university would be used only six months of the year. "Steam-driven air conditioners are very inefficient. They should be re-used." which would pay for themselves in about a year," he said. A solid waste boiler and a preparatory plant for the waste would cost about $20,000. THE UNIVERSITY has considered building a large stand-alone solid waste plant on West Campus, he said, but it would be because it would cost about $1 million. Rodger Oroke, director of support services for facilities operations, said he was convinced the University should have a solid waste disposal plant. "I am convinced that on a small scale, what we presently dispose could be used to produce steam for heat for one or more buildings." Oroke said. SMITH SAID to gain the most efficiency from the waste paper, it would have to be converted into solid pellets. Pellets produced from this plant would produce about 8,000 British thermal units a pound, so 14,250 tons of pellets a year would be needed. A Btu is the amount of the heat that raises one pound of water one degree C. The amount of paper waste in Lawrence in 1977 could have produced 14,577 tons of pellets that it all had saved, he said. But he estimated that THE REMAINDER could be provided by natural gas, while it is available, waste wood or paper brought in from Topeka or Kansas City, he said. only 60 percent of the waste could be saved which would not be enough to meet their needs. Natural gas is too expensive and will be in short supply in 20 years, Smith said. The shortage of natural gas was what prompted Smith to begin investigating alternate fuel sources for the University. During the winter of 1978-77, natural gas was in great demand and many places ran out and had to use oil as an alternate source, he said. Kansas State University came within two days of running out of gas and oil. When the Natural Gas Policy of 1978 was passed, the shortage of gas was abated, but prices in the last year and a few months were much less need for alternate sources. Smith said. THE PRICE OF NATURAL gas has increased 72 percent since July 1981, from $2.83 for 1,000 cubic feet to $5.04, with the new price effective last week. Several independent companies have studied the possibility of using a solid waste boiler at the University and have demonstrated its practicality to using natural gas, Smith said. The Consensus Coalition led all other coaltions with 45 filings. Lisa Ashner, Mission junior, and Jim Cramer, Prairie Village junior, are the Consensus Coalition candidates for student body president and vice president. The Momentum Coalition had 41 student files for the Nov. 17 and 18 Senate elections, Kevin Walker, St. Louis junior, and David Teopearten, Vancouver, Canada, senior, filed last week as the Momentum candidates for student body president and vice president. two members of the Introspection Coalition.
