Commission to review preservation
By MATTHEW SCHOFIELD Staff Reporter
Lawrence's goals on historic preservation will be the principal item on the agenda for the City Commission meeting at 7:30 tomorrow night.
The Lawrence city manager's office requested copies of historic preservation ordinances from five other cities, and received three. Kansas City, KS., Salina and Dodge City responded to the request.
The commission will attempt to develop its own historic preservation ordinance after reviewing the ordinances from other cities.
According to the agenda, the commission will continue with its discussion of special assessment policy, and consider rezoning the parking lot and building of the home under renovation. Kasdo Drive, so that the areas would be under the same zoning classification.
THE COMMISSION will consider rezoning ordinances for two areas: from 1308 to 1310 Pennsylvania St., and from 1312 to 1314 area on the south side of Fifth Street.
The commission will also consider $140,000 worth of improvements in the area 450 feet west and 750 feet east of Rockledge Road at Sixth Street.
The commission will consider adding regulations to the code of the city for a new multi-family district in Lawrence.
Bids will be taken on sludge pump for the Kaw Plant and electrical improvements for fire stations No. 1 and No. 2.
THE COMMISSION will also review staff reports on the Kasaskar Drive sidewalk, cleanup at 1016 Delaware St. and the city's water and sewer rate survey. Also reviewed will be community development reports on the city's water, sewer, and East Lawrence development plan for the 800 block of Pennsylvania Street and amendments to the citizen participation plan.

as an educational medium, according to two KU professors doing research on the topic.
All these violent elements of children's television could be eliminated while still enabling programs to hold a child's attention and perks serving
Aelthea Huston and John Wright, professors of human development and directors of the Center for Research on the Influence of Television on Children.
515 W. 14th St., recently received a $91,699 grant renewal for their research on television's impact on children from the National Institute of Mental Health. Huston said they were trying to discover how the way a program was produced affected children's understanding of its message.
WRIGHT SAID they were conducting a two-year longitudinal study of 320 Topeka families to determine children's viewing habits. A longitudinal study follows the research subjects for an extended period of time.
The study should be completed by January 1983, when the children will be between the ages of 5 and 7, he said.
The research has been in progress at the university since it opened in 1978. Haston said.
Huston told children spend more time with television than any other medium. The high TV use rates in Huston are
television, programs is important to researchers, she said.
"It's the production techniques — not the violent content — that are good attention-getters for children," Huston said.
RAPID CUTS, visual special effects and sound effects are "hyped-up techniques" that children's programs could use to hold a child's attention instead of violent elements, she said. In the past, now used in some programs, she said.
But more important, she said, these television programs can be used as a way to teach the children about life.
"TV can be more than just advertising Cheerios," she said. "Our general feeling is that TV isn't necessarily a bad thing."
"Mister Roger's Neighborhood," "Sesame Street" and "Fat Albert and the Cooby Kids" are shows that Huston was involved in when he watch because they had a message.
Senate debates will not be televised
Attempts to get this year's studentry presidential debate on television have failed, the news director of KJHK radio said yesterday.
Steve Youngblood, news director,
said the University-financed radio
station simply did not have the
resources to televise the debate.
Youngblood said JKHK had hoped to
show the debate on Channel 6, a cable television station distributed in Lawrence by Sunflower Cablevision.
The debate would have been shown on a tape-delayed basis.
However, Youngblood said KJHK would definitely sponsor a candidate debate sometime before the Nov. 17 and
18 Student Senate elections.
"It is tentatively planned for the day before the election," he said, "but we haven't made any decisions on a location."
IN THE PAST, the debate has been at the Kansas Union.
The KJHK debate will feature only the presidential candidates, Young-blood said. Lisa Ashner, Mission junior, is the Consensus Coalition candidate for student president. Kevin Walker, St. John's University, and Justin Canton Coalition presidential candidate.
This is the first time since 1977 that only two candidates have filed for the Student Senate's highest office.
IN ADDITION to the KJHK debate, two other campus groups have considered sponsoring forums for the two candidates for studentry president.
The president of the Association of University Residence Halls said he hoped to have Ashner and Walker meet in an informal Assembly sometime next month.
"It's mainly for our people to meet them and see who they are." Bob Dodd says.
But he said anyone would be welcome to attend.
A forum at McCollum Hall is also in the planning stages, Kristie Berglund, McCollim resident assistant, said.

Keys can be entered in rape trial State high court OKs evidence
By CAROL LICHTI Staff Reporter
The Kansas Supreme Court ruled Friday that a set of KU keys could be used as evidence in the case of a man accused of raping a KU student.
The high court's decision overruled a Kansas Court of Appeals and Douglas County District Court decision that the keys found in the apartment of the late Ralph Mueller, in May 1981 rape of a graduate student, could not be used as evidence.
judge ruled that the keys could not be used as evidence.
Gallaway is charged with one count of kidnapping, rape, aggravated sodomy and aggravated robbery in connection with the rape. His trial for allegedly raping the student was halted when a Douglas County District Court
The Supreme Court ruled that officers who searched Galloway's apartment acted properly when they seized the keys. The other courts had ruled that the keys, which belonged to the rape victim, could not be used because they were improperly seized under the search warrant.
Lawrence law enforcement officials were searching Galloway's apartment with a search warrant to find evidence that might link Galloway to the July 8, 1981 rape of a KU student when they seized the set of keys.
THE SUPREME COURT ruled that the officers had the right to seize the keys because they knew that neither the wife nor his wife had any connections to KU.
Galloway was convicted of one count of rape and one count of aggravated sodomy in connection with the July 8 rape.
The case on the May rage can now be retrieved in Douglas County District Court with the keys presented as evidence unless Galloway's attorney, Jeffrey Heeb, appeals the Supreme Court's decision to federal court.
District Attorney Jerry Harper said, "We plan to move ahead just as quickly as we can."

Harper said he did not know whether Heeb planned to appeal the decision, but he said, "I think this is the end of the line."
The keys and other evidence seized at the same time were essential evidence to the state's case against Galloway in the May rape, Harper said.
