Ford, Carter seek votes in kev states
By WALTER MEARS
AB Special Correspondent
With only hours to go before they rest their campaigns in the hands of a closely divided electorate, President Gerald Ferd and Jimmy Carter yesterday sought to sway voters who would make or break a president in tomorrow's election.

In person and on television, Carter worked in Texas,
then in California. Acknowledging that the election is razor-close, he declared that the nation needs change that only he can bring.
CARTER, the runaway leader in midsummer public opinion poll, is rated ahead of Ford in two late voter opinion surveys by margins so narrow that both said the election could go either way.
That uncertainty added to the tension and the urgency as Ford and Carter, who were the electoral votes in 2016, held 95% in 2018.
Ford moved last night to Canton, Ohio. Today, he goes Akron and then names to Michigan for appearances near Detroit.
Carter flew from Fort Worth to San Francisco and Carter flew from Los Angeles, and plans to meet his vice presidential running mate, Sen. Walt Mondale, at a rally in Flint, Mich., for final bid to

IT WILL TAKE 270 electoral votes to win. In the two days of the campaign, Carter and will have won at least one more vote per candidate.
The voters also will elect a new House of Representatives, 33 senators, 14 governors and Cousands of local
Ford and Carter aren't the only candidates for the White House. Of the others, the most important is Eugene McCarthy, the former Democratic senator, whose candidacy has helped turn off the tip into the outcome from Carter to Ford in close contests.
In the House, where Democrats now rule 290 to 145, the election isn't likely to produce a major shift in the party lineup. Democrats create a probable Republican gain of 12 to 12 seats. Republicans have little chance in winning, and will remain solidly Democratic.
THE SAME IS 15 of the Senate, ruled 62-38 by Democrats. When the votes are in, the democrats may rule.
The shift in power, if one comes, will be at the top of the ticket, and there the most recent public opinion polls indicate.
There are 36 Democratic governors, 13 Republicans and one independent. That isn't likely to change much, either.
A New York Times-CBS survey published Saturday night said Carter was just ahead, but that his lead was within the 2.5 per cent margin of error. Thus, Ford could have been correct to publish the percentages of Ford and Carter support.
A LOUIS HARRIS conducted for ABC News said Carter led Ford, 45 per cent to 44 per cent.
Ford attended a Roman Catholic mass in Buffalo, N.Y., yesterday. Carter went to the University Baptist Church
At St. Stanislas Church, in a Polish-American area of Buffalo, Ford heard a Roman Catholic sermon against abortion. Some Catholics have criticized Carter for refusing to support a constitutional amendment to ban
Also in Buffalo, Ford reminded a gathering of party workers that the election "countdown is just 50 hours away," and urged them to make sure all their relatives and acquaintances voted.
Carter kicked off his final swing through California last with an outdoor rally telecast to four western states.
"Every vote counts," Carter declared to the thousands of cheering people crammed into Ghirardelli Square and the courthouse.
CARTER WAS TO devote most of his last day of campaigning today to California where Ford is generally the leading contender.
"I don't want to lose," Carter told the rally. "I don't intend to lose."
Carter was introduced by Gov. Edmund Brown Jr., who portrayed the Democratic presidential candidate as a choice "of the future, of possibility, of openness." He said he believed that he would "recycle the last eight years into the status quo."
The Carter rally was televised in 10 cities in California, Oregon, Washington and Nevada.
Carter, whose campaign is broadcasting radio advertisements urging Southerners not to "let the Washington poll keep one of our own out of the White House," said on Wednesday he would solidify his position in Texas, the biggest Southern state.

Fund refusal jeopardizes Pedalplan
By JOHN MUELLER
The future of Lawrence's Pedalplan, a comprehensive city proposal to build new bikeways, has been jeopardized by a federal law that requires Lawrence funds needed to begin the project.
Myles Schachter, project director and an employee in the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Office, said Friday that a regional office of the U.S. Department of Transportation recently had decided to award bikeway development funds to Wichita, Kentucky, for a project that requests for Lawrence and six other Midwest cities were rejected.
BUFORD WATSON, city manager, said the agency didn't indicate in the rejection letter why Lawrence's application was turned down.
Schachter said Pedalplan was organized in the hope that it would qualify as a demonstration program under the Federal Highways Act of 1973. Programs begin in cities receiving grants will be models for bikeway programs across the country.
The original Pedalman, according to a city report, comprised five phases. Each phase would take two more than five years and since the project was to be completed within 20 years.
Pedalplan was to have included bicycle pedals and lanes across Lawrence. It would have included extensions of the city's current bikeway system, which has two sidewalks and a bike rack connected the Deerfield area of northwest Lawrence with the central business district.
THE PROJECT was estimated in the report to cost $230,926. Phase One proposed 8.6 miles of bikeways, costing $106,900 which have been completed by spring 2014.
"Without the seed money, we're in the scrounging stage," Schachter said. "The faster we get the money, the faster we can implement the plan."
But the city had counted on $0 per cent federal funding to finance the first phase, Schachter said. Without federal funding, Lawrence lacks $5,527 to start Pedalman.
Schachter said the city has started looking for other federal funding from the Department of Energy and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of the Interior. The Department of the Interior has recreation funds that were originally created in phase, he said, but possibly not all of it.
"WE MIGHT HAVE to scale down parts of Phase One, but the first part can still be done. The Kaw bridge segment money makes it possible that there's nothing definite." Schaefer said.
The first part of the program calls for 1.87 miles of bileway, at a cost of $2,500. The second part of the program calls for 2.45 miles of bileway, at a cost of $3,600.

The graceful 10, and clumsy 70 rub shoulders in Kabuki workshop
By MERLE GOLDMAN
Watch my fingers
Staff Writer
Laughter filled the dance studio of Robinson Gymnasium Friday night when graze rubbed shoulders with clumsy eagerness at a Kabuki workshop.
The graceful were 10 young Japanese men from the National Theatre Institute of Japan who belonged to the Martial Arts of Kakuki trio. They were slight but robust men who have spent years leaning how to move in a perfectly expressive manner.
The clumsy and eager were the 70 students and townpeople who participated in the first day of the course of the fundamentals of a high stylized form of traditional Japanese theater. In two hours they learned that even the simplest movements in Kabuki demanded skill and understanding.
Steven Silver, Lawrence graduate student, tried to cross one eye while holding the other one straight as part of an exercise called Mle, which was given Fridays as part of a course.
Once Kuroeonell II, Kabuki actor and professor of dance at Harvard University, provided the bridge between the artists and the novices. He wore a lavender Harvard T-shirt, and spoke with a heavy Japanese accent. A travel guide for the journey from West to East.

Kuroemon taught the group fundamental movements from a version of Kabaki's "Snowbound" routine. The American theater. These ranged from the proud highstepting walk of a Japanese swordman to "roppo," a dramatic hopping performance of a fighter escaping from a dangerous situation.
THE WORKSHOP flowed along with three beats a measure. Kuroeon gave a short introduction to each movement, then the workshop participants imitated it.
One technique that the workshop participants didn't imitate was a somersault, which one of the troupe members perused. After, after which he landed firmly on his feet.
where the performer did a somersault with one motion, the Kabuki actor paused for a second in midair and therefore looked more graceful.
The technique that fascinated the workshop participants the most was "mie." This is the pause posture that Kabul artists use to represent a climactic moment in a story. To "cuc'ma," the actor stands very still with his face towards the audience,
Kuroemon said that unlike acrobatics,
opens his eyes wide and crosses one eye while the other stares straight ahead.
"Don't think," he said to the students. "just do!"
Even though the troupe members spoke only a little English, conversations were easily started. At one point, Kuroeon had gone to the library and found a member and some students to be quiet.
Runny nose ad fools callers
Staff Writer
By MARTIN ZIMMERMAN
Not one of the burning issues of the day, perhaps. But Dave Hay, Overland Park junior, whose phone number was attached to the ad even though he didn't place it himself, said the response has been "great." The answer is as many as 50 persons a day called, each searching desperately to aure their simuitsus, he said.
"If you have problems with a runny nose, call KU Runny Nose Information Center. Free literature upon request."
This classified advertisement appeared in the Personal section of the Kansan last Monday and Tuesday. The article described how afflicted persons could call for help.
UNFORTUNATELY, for both Hay and his would-be patients, the ad was a hoax. There is no such entity as the KU Runny Nose Information Center, and
Hay said that the volume of calls dropped off greatly the last few days, but that during the period after the ad was published, his phone rang constantly.
Hay, even though he handles first aid chores for the Lawrence Rugley Club, don't consider himself the messiah because you still won't conquer the common cold.
"It got bad that we had to take the phone off the hook to get any peace," Hay said. "Some people would just call us and let them go." A runny nose, but some sounded serious."
Hay advised one woman, who called to say her bird had a rummy nose, to give the bird a pint of whisky—and stand back.
When the ad first appeared, Hay suspected that a friend in Manhattan had pulled the hoax. When he checked
Hay's roommate, Doug Letsch,
Overland Park junior, said yesterday
that the hoaxer had finally confessed
and that it was indeed the "buddy"
from Manhattan, who attended KU last year.
at the Kansan advertising department, however, he found that the guilty party had signed the popular alias, "Jones," on the bill.
In the meantime, persons plugged with runny noses should stock up on tissues, take two aspirins and make sure they don't call Dave Haye.
DESPITE THE JANGling of their phone and their nerves, Hay and Letoch have remained reasonably calm. He said he thought he saw a possibility for a new career.
KU softens move for potential Jayhawks
A program to ease the transition of high school, junior college and out-of-state students to the University of Kansas will begin today, through the efforts of the Student Senate and the Office of Admissions and Records.
The program, Statewide Activities, will be staffed by KU student volunteers who will conduct campus tours for visiting students and families, accompany students to school events high schools, and distribute information packets to students in their home towns.
from their home towns or share their academic interests.
Statewide Activities is a subcommittee of the Senate Communications Committee.
"This is not a recruitment program,"
Steve Laben, Communication
Committee chair.
Sheila Everhart, Statewide Activities chairman, said Friday that a file would be kept of KU students interested in providing buoys for visiting students, giving them a chance to swim in the KU. The file will help visit students be paired with KU students who either are
"We do not view Student Senate as a recruitment agency, but rather as a means for helping students who lean toward coming to KU adjust to college life.
Everhart said that although the purpose of the program wasn't to recruit, it would still do so. The University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University and Kansas State University have such "elite tour guide systems that it's gotten to the point that these colleges no longer have to recruit," she said.
JOHN MYERS, director of admissions, said, "Even though the program is for students who indicate an interest in us, there are general PR values in it, too." It's almost impossible to know why a person comes up to visit, but just a tour can lead to
"We had the student interest, but the program lacked organization," he said.
Leben said the program had often been tried but hadn't succeeded.
"We started clear back in March to organize this program. I think we figured out the where and the why; now all we need is the people to do it."
Leben said the Statewide Activities committee would recruit people this week to work in the program. Forms are available in the Senate office or from Myers.
