Jewish ring in new year
By Chad Bettes Kansan staff writer
Many students walking through the Kansas Union yesterday were greeted by Dana Bleacher with a smile and the question, "Would you like some apples and honey?"
Blecher, a Steinhardt fellow with the Jewish Campus Service Corps and recent KU graduate, used the day to share an important Jewish tradition with Jews and other students.
Apples and honey is a way to bring in a sweet new year, Blecher said. In Jewish culture, sunund Sunday night will begin the observance of the new year 5759.
Monday is Rosh Hashana, the first day of the new year and the beginning of the high holy days in the Jewish religion. The high holy days end Sept. 30, with Yom Kippur, the day of atonement.
"These are the two most holy days for the Jewish community," said Donny Cohn, Omaha senior.
Because Lawrence does not have a Jewish synagogue, Blecher, KU Hillet and the Jewish Community Center are coordinating local observances.

Amanda Morgan, Leawood senior, said she would be honoring the holy days religiously. For her, it is a time to reflect on God and the year, including things that went wrong.
"It helps me be the best person I can be," Morgan said. "It shows me how I should treat other people and respect other people."

The Federal Communications Commission granted KJHK an application for a power increase from 100 watts to 2,900 watts.
"Hopefully, we'll get a lot more requests," said Dumler, co-host for a rock-music show from 2 to 5 p.m. Mondays." We'll get to see what people want to hear outside Lawrence."

Bids from vendors competing to install the new equipment for KJHK were due yesterday. The vendor will be chosen next week and has 60 days to complete the construction.
Hawke said students living on the east side of Mount Oread had a difficult time obtaining the signal but that with the wattage increase, listeners in Lawrence would have an improved signal.
Gary Hawke, general manager of KJHK, said the power increase could allow an audience of 1 million people to listen to the station. Right now, the station has the ability to reach only 100,000 people.
Mistakes also could be a problem. he said.
Hawke said the radio station could attract more sponsorship because of a possible increased amount of listeners.
Dumler said she was not afraid of her mistakes getting bigger.
"It's a student-run radio station, and you have to expect students to make mistakes." Dumler said.
said there could be some difficulty with doing the construction during that time of year.
The construction should be completed during Thanksgiving break because the station usually shuts down for a couple of days. Hawke
"Weather is a big factor since someone has to climb to the top of the building to install the new antenna," he said.
