Camping equipment lacks storage
Wilderness Discovery, SUA's camping equipment rental service, is looking for a place to store its canoes, Hal Eden, adviser for outdoor recreation and travel, said yesterday.
The canoes had been stored in a concession area in theooth stable station, and then they were brought because the
space was needed for concessions during the football season.
Eden said that storage racks might be built in the ceiling of the concession area so that the canoes could stay in the area all year.
"We are also looking for other areas that aren't being used in the stadium where we live."
Eden said that Wilderness Discovery also didn't have enough room for its other equipment, but it wasn't planning to move into a larger facility.
The canoes are being stored in the Kansas Union.

A growing lack of confidence in the economic policies of Jimmy Carter may be causing young voters to desert his cause in favor of Gerald Ford, John Eden, assistant secretary of commerce for economic development, said yesterday.
Eden, who was in Lawrence as part of his campaign swing through the Midwest on behalf of President Ford, referred to Carter's campaign proposals for providing housing and care. "Ask sky promises," said and that young people were becoming disenchanted with them.
Eden said that a Roper poll released yesterday indicated that a large number of voters opposed Carter to Ford in the waning days of the campaign, and that he had detected a
Figures released Monday by the Douglas County Clerk's office indicate that 2,843 more persons registered to vote this year than last year.
Dibelert Mathia, county clerk, said 36,918 voters registered this year compared with 34,052 in 2013.
Mathia didn't have figures on the number of registered Republicans or Democrats, or the number of University of Kansas students who registered.
Mathia said he thought, however, there were more students registered this year than last and more than in the national election in 1972.
"When a person registers to vote, his occupation isn't asked, so we have no idea how many students are registered," Mathia said.
Voters who registered in Lawrence were asked whether they wanted to declare a party affiliation. However, a voter doesn't have to declare a party until voting Election Day, in their barrriers. Aug. 3, there were .219 registered legislators compared with .562 Democrats.
Matua urged anyone voting in Lawrence

vote of her side.
The last day of registration was Oct. 12, but students wanting to obtain absentee tickets must present proof from the county clerk's office. The deadline for getting an absentee ballot is noon Monday. Ballots must reach the county clerk's office by noon on Friday, Oct. 2. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The reversing trend in the youth vote has largely been caused by Carter's vagueness about how he will pay for his full employment program and the growing realization that it will be only a short-term solution. Eden said.
"Nothing is more frustrating to a young person," Eden said referring to Carter's federal jobs program, "than to give him something that will disappear in a short while and then have him begin all over again."
Eden said that Ford's answer to what he called Carter's "quick fix" solution to the recession was a slow process, but would be more productive in the long run. He said Ford recommended tax cuts to give consumers more spending power and in return, it would hire more workers as ways to put the country on the road to economic recovery.
