The sixth annual KU Critique Bike
tacers, sponsored by the Mount Bragg
Sports Center, will be held on April 25.
With more than £1,600 in merchandise and trophies being awarded, the race will be sponsored by the British Airways.
The 1.3-smile course will start in front of Wesson Lake on Jayhawk Boulevard and proceed through the Kansas Union tunnel and out to Memorial Drive. From there the students can head south to go south around the Chi Omega Fountain and continue down Jayhawk Boulevard.
**THIS YEAR IS** the first fall-semester race since 1971, according to Gene Wee, state representative for the U.S. Cycling Federation (USCF). Previous races, which usually had problems with rain, resulting in fewer spectators, Wee said yesterday.
However with other big bike races scheduled in Ames, Iowa; St. Louis and Springfield, ILL; this weekend, Wee said, it is difficult to tell how big the turnout will be. Last week's race was expected this year than ever before. Last year's race attracted about 75 riders.
"We thought it would be better to switch it this year, because the weather should be better and, with the semester just beginning, students would have more time." he said.
ALL KU STUDENTS, Lawrence citizens or members of the USCF are eligible to participate. Competition for students and community bikers will include races between college living groups and an open race for anyone.
We said the word criterium meant one-half to a mile and one-half bike race on a closed circuit, meaning the racers would be stopped at the finish line and be closed Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.
"Originally criterium meant a bike race where after each lap, the racers would sprint for the finish line and a couple of laps later, sprinted again," Wee said "However, a win on one sprint doesn't mean you've won the race."
THE CORRECT name for these spirits are "prines" (pronounced "preens"); Wee said. A few primes will be run during the races to "stir things up." Wee said.
Three races will be run for USCF members--two in the senior class and one in the junior class. These races will be 20 to 40 miles long.
Students also have an option to pay a smaller entry fee and compete in fewer competitive races, or they can pay more and enter the USCF races, which are more competitive and offer more expensive prizes. Wee said.
Entry fees for non-USCF are $1.50.
Entry fees for USCF are $2.25 and $3.25,
depending on class.
Entry forms and more information are available at the SUA office.

Finn said that, in addition to a concept, the designer is given a budget with which to create the concept. She said she had found that a tight budget can be an asset instead of a liability because the designer can be in charge of greater creativity and resourcefulness.
"You can build a great and wonderful thing on $30,000, but you can also do it with $100," Jim said. "A tight budget makes you more creative than you would be otherwise."
Finn said that this is something she tries to impress on the student designers she works with on the other shows. She said she also tries to get the students to separate the art aspect of theater design from the aspect of craft. The job of a designer, she said, is not just to build a set but to find out what the audience is saying and to convey it to the audience.
TO DESIGN a set, the designer must go through steps before the design is completed to get a feel for what the final design is going to be. Finn said that the common procedure for this was to start with a sketch of floor plan and then build a model of the set.
"Models tend to work well," she said.
"They give one a sense of the space that is available. It's a good tool for young desimmers to learn."
For her preliminary model, Finn unabashedly uses children's building
AS A CLOSET child, Finn finds that the theater gives people a chance to relive the experiences of the past. He becomes adults. She said that society had a tendency to negate the娃like innocence that helps us to appreciate life's magic. The theater can recapture at least part of this magic.
"A lot of us are closest children," she admitted. "This is the first time I've had the experience."
"It's a different way of viewing the world," she said. "You can accept it at face value."
KU graduate student wins writing award
"Taking Flight," a short story by Paul Stephen Lim, Lawrence graduate student, recently won first place in the short story division of the annual Palanca Memorial Weekend.
earlier this year, Lim's first full-length play, "Compensations," was selected as the best original script by the American College Theatre Festival and was produced at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.
The Hewlett-Packard first family of calculators are in a class by themselves.
Hewlett-Packard built the world's first advanced pocket calculator back in 1972. And led the way ever since.
Today, Hewlett-Packard calculators are recognized as the First Family by more than one million worldwide. Including Nobel Prize winners, USA-USR astronauts, explorers, educators, scientists, businessmen, and students. Here why
First family design.
Hewlett-Packard was first—and continues to lead—in the translation of state-of-the-art technology into advanced calculators
First family performance.
Hewlett-Packard means the kind of performance that includes RPN logic with four-memory stack, a full range of advanced functions, and much, much more.
First family reliability.
When you buy a Hewlett-Packard calculator you get one year's protection on parts and labor. And a two working-day turn-around on most repairs.
First family support.
Every calculator comes with its own comprehensive Owner's Handbook. In
