Mobility selected for front of depot
By Liz Musser
Kansan staff writer
Elements of the past can exist in harmony with elements of the future.
The Lawrence city commission unanimously approved a piece of artwork last night that will stand in front of the Union Pacific Depot and that is meant to tie the historic nature of Lawrence to its future.
The stainless steel sculpture, Mobility, is planned as a circular-shaped abstract piece. The creator, Lawrence artist Shellie Bender, said the circles in the sculpture were inspired by train wheels in motion.
A five-member committee selected the piece from 42 entries from around the country.
The committee solicited public comment about the artwork before making its decision and presenting it to the commission for approval.
Carol Jones, chairwoman of the Lawrence arts commission, said placing of the contemporary piece in front of the historic
Union Pacific Depot, 402 N. Second St., would be appropriate.
"This piece links art with renovation and new construction," she said. "It will be a complement to the depot."
The Union Pacific Depot was renovated last year to serve as a convention and visitor center.
But Jim Brothers, a local sculptor, did not think Mobility was appropriate for placement in front of the depot.
He said that the piece was too modern and did not fit with the historic architecture of the depot.
"We are not New York," Brothers said. "Why can't we have a piece of sculpture that reflects our culture?"
Shellie Bender will receive $30,000 to construct the sculpture, which she is expected to complete in 1997.

College Republicans choose new leaders
It's out with the old and in with the new for the University of Kansas chapter of the College Republicans.
By Neal Shulenburger
Kansan staff writer
Only two of the club's leaders, vice chairman Tom Moore, Lawrence junior, and events chairwoman Maggie Wilson, Lawrence sophomore, remained in their old positions by the end of last night's election meeting.
One of the most significant changes in the club's leadership was Steve Finney, Shawne graduate student and former chairman of the club, becoming publicity chairman. Finney, who also is a graduate student student senator, said he was switching offices because he simply didn't have the time to remain chairman.
"I've been going back and forth between Topeka, here and Kansas City, and there might be some political campaign that I will work for," he said. "I simply didn't have as much time to do the job as I would like."
Ryan Kauffman, Overland Park junior and former fund-raising chairman, was selected as Finney's successor. Kauffman said he would use his election as an opportunity to improve the club.
"We need to increase the group's membership, especially in an election
year," he said. "We also need to get the word out on Republican ideas and let people know that we are not just a group of upper-class elite."
Unlike Finney, Chelsi Hayden, Alexandria, Va., junior and treasurer, decided not to run for any office. She cited similar reasons to Finney's for her own resignation.
"I'm doing a lot with Student Senate, so my time is spread way too thin," Hayden said. "I feel I benefit the group by resigning. Someone else will be able to devote much more time and energy to the job."
Brad Burke, Topeka senior, has been a member of College Republicans for seven semesters. He said that this kind of turnover in the leadership positions was common.
"The last chairman, Samantha Bowman, ended her term early," he said. "She just became too involved with her sorority and student senate. It seems to happen about every semester."
Burke said that the reason for the high turnover in the club was that the leaders were very active in other areas.
"The club is a kind of stepping stone," Burke said. "Political leaders look at the leaders of College Republicans and if they are good, they grab them up, and grab them up quickly."
