Red Cross hunts for 'Rare Birds'
By Cathy Garrard Kansan staff writer
This summer the Lawrence chapter of the American Red Cross hopes to attract more than 500 rare birds.
Jo Byers, Lawrence Red Cross chapter manager, compared rare birds to summer blood donors because both were scarce.
The second annual Red Cross "Rare Bird" summer blood drive will be held at the Middletown Public Library on Wednesday, June 17 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
She said that 2,500 people were active donors in Douglas County but that the number was not nearly enough.
"We wanted to catch people's attention," Byers said. "The summer is bad for blood donations. People go on vacation, or they don't want to give blood when the weather is hot."
"Fifty-six out of 100 people qualify to be donors, but only 10 actually are."
The drive's goal is to ensure a sufficient blood supply for hospital patients. A goal of 500 donations has been set by the center.
Last summer the week-long drive surpassed its goal, but the center was overcrowded during the drive, Byers said. The drive was stretched into two weeks this year so the donors would not have a long wait.
Blood donated to the Lawrence chapter of the Red Cross first goes to the regional center in Wichita. It is a hub for hospitals in Kansas and Oklahoma.
Byers said increasing the donor base was another major objective for the foundation.
A donor must weigh at least 110
'I wish people would always realize how important giving blood is. You can save a life, give someone another holiday.'
— Pam Aversamo chairperson for the summer blood
pounds, be over 17 years old, have no history of hepatitis and cannot be in any groups with high-risk for contracting the AIDS virus.
Byers said that summer donations were low but that the outpouring of donations during the Persian Gulf War was excellent.
"We actually had an oversupply of blood." Byers said. "It was quite an accident."
"When people see a need, they come through," Aversano said. "I wish people would always realize how important giving blood is. You can save a life, give someone another holiday."
Pam Aversano, chairperson for the summer drive, said the donations helped the organization.
Lawrence residents can donate blood at the Red Cross Blood Center, 329 Missouri St. on Mondays. Tuesdays and Thursdays from noon to 6 p.m. Wednesdays from noon to 8 p.m. and Fridays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Volunteer donors can make an appointment by calling 749-3017.
Each donor during the summer drive will receive a free T-shirt with a Jayhawk on it wearing sunglasses and a straw hat.
Reserve early for 1992 graduation
By Eric Swanson
Kansan staff writer
Anyone who wants lodging in Lawrence for next year's commencement ceremonies should make reservations now.
Only one of the hotels or motels in Lawrence is completely filled for next year's commencement, most of them are at least half full.
Halcyon House Bed & Breakfast, 1000 Ohio St., is full for next year's commencement. It may even be full for commencement in 1993, said Esther Wolfe, one of the owners of Halcyon House.
"Lots of times we have graduations booked for two or three years in advance," she said. "People know that we only have eight rooms, so if they don't make appointments early, they won't get a room."
Kurt Price, a desk clerk at the Eldridge Hotel, 701. Massachusetts St., said the hotel already has all the necessary reservations for its 48 suits.
"I believe we're just about booked up," he said. "Quite a few people who were around for this year's graduation made reservations for next year while they were here."
The Holiday Inn Holdome, 200 McDonald Drive, also has begun taking reservations.
since the first week of June. The hotel, which can accommodate 768 people, is about two-thirds full already
The Best Western Hallmark Inn, 730 Iowa St., began taking reservations in June, but problems with the reservation book have forced it to stop, said Manager Jennifer Lane.
"Right now, I honestly don't believe that we're booked," she said.
While some motels have been taking 1992 graduation reservations since June, others have not. The bookings books until later in the year.
The Westminster Inn, 2525 West Sixth St. does not take reservations for commencement until Jan. 1 each year, said Ken Venkze, a desk clerk there. The only exception to this rule is if the reservation is for 10 or more rooms.
"We were booked solid by the end of last January because we told so many people to call us back then," he said.
The Super 8 Motel of Lawrence,
515 McDonald Drive, will not take
reservations for commencement
until October.
Aimee Williams, a desk clerk at the Super 8 Motel, said, "Most people are here for commencement in 1989 and then they want to make reservations for commencement in 1990 that same day. We want to give more people a chance."
Soviet reformers lobby to save democracy
The Associated Press
MOSCOW — Former Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze and other prominent reformers yesterday urged pro-democracy forces to unite and wipe out threats of dictatorship
"The main task that we are facing is to save democracy," Shewardnade told a news conference where reformers released a platform for a nationwide political organization they hope to form in September.
Shevardnadze's group of nine Communists and ex-Communists hopes to force the Communist Party — the dominant political force in the Soviet Union — to expel hard-liners who want to return to one-party rule, said group member Arkady Volsky.
The showdow between reformers and hard-liners will come at a Communist Party Central Committee meeting this month, said Volsky, a one-time aide to President Mikhail Gorbachev.
"The opposition is very strong," Volsky said.
He did not indicate whether the meeting would be before or after Gorbachev meets in London on July 17 with leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized nations.
If the meeting ends with a Communist Party committed to democracy, it could then affiliate with or merge into Shevardnadze's pro-democracy coalition, Volsky said.
Shevardnadze had said earlier that
Do you keep losing your shorts?
he saw a need to create a democratic party that would act parallel with the Communist Party.
If the Communist Party joins, itstained record could damage the pro-democracy coalition's credibility, but the party would give the reformers enormous financial and organizational resources.
Shevardnadze, who quit as foreign minister in December, said he would decide within a few days whether he would quit the Communist Party.
