Kissinger, Rabin confer
NEW YORK - Secretary of State Hatey A. Kissinger and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin on Tuesday would show whether a new agreement could be worked out between them, although no longer could be worked out between them.

Telescopes improved
LEXINGTON, Mass.—Scientists have developed an optical system for telescopes which, they say, dramatically reduces the obscuring effects of atmospheric distortion, the age-old antagonist of astronomy.
The new system, developed by the Ikr Corp., in Lexington, uses mirrors and a computer to distort the distortion so that observers instantly get a clear image of it.

Mayor Barkley Clark, clark in a blue and beige colonial army uniform and calling, "Hear ye hear! Yeah!" introduced the town dignitaries, including several former mayors, Army officers and organizers of the day's festivals. Background music was by the 312th U.S. Army Reserve Band, the only the 312th band in the Army Reserve.
The Playmen from Baker University presented excerpts from the Ballad of Black Jack, a musical portraying early Kansas, and Nic Averill and Company gave its Stars Band a performance. The band culminated in a chorus lenditure of "It's a Grand Old Flag," which brought
forth a round of foot stomping, clapping and singing from the crowd.
The buffet and ball was the end of a full day of hospesn pageantry in downtown Lawrence. Activities began at 9:30 a.m. with a parade on Massachusetts Street and a celebration in the community presentations and performances in South Park. Clenice Hills, chairman of the Douglas County Bicentennial Commission, called the presentation of bicentennial flags to Douglas County and five of its cities the focal point of the day's activities. The event was hosted by Edenwood and the Clinton area were recognized as official Bicentennial communities.
Five area bands participated in the parade. They ranged in expertise from the KLWN Transistor Band, a group of local children marching to Band from the radios they carried, to the 42nd Army Band of the Kansas National Guard. About 30 organizations from the Lawrence area entered floats and displays in the parade.
The booths in the park demonstrated a wide range of approaches to the historic celebration. Some organizations, like the Daughters of the American Revolution and the Lawrence Arts Commission, presented only a simple display of the activities and
issues that involved their group. Others, like the Frontiersmen Drum and Bugle Corps and the Seem to Be Players performed throughout the afternoon.

Although most of the displays were about the American Revolution, other moments in national and local history were represented by groups such as the Lawrence Chapter of the Antique Auto Club of America and the Old West Lawrence Association.

"It's a fair, like any other," one young person said.

Cagers pass Olympic test
By MARCY CAMPBELL
An older woman commented, "I enjoyed all of it. I think people put a lot of work into something like this and it's well worth-while."
Kansan Staff Reporter
Fifteen women have been selected to attend the national tryouts for the United States Women's Olympic Basketball team, Robert Benson, director of the central division of the Olympic trials, said yesterday.
The Olympic trials were held Friday through Sunday in Allen Field House. Sixty-six candidates from the central region of the United States attended the trials, Benson said. The candidates were housed in Ellsworth Hall.
"We are impressed with the quality of play," Mildred Barnes, chairman of the Olympic Committee's central department, said. It was impressed drastically over the past two years.
Barnes is also the president of the Amateur Basketball Association of the United States of America. Benson and Barnes were selectors for the trials.
Outreach unit may get new home
The school became available when officials of the Shawnee Mission School District decided to close it this fall because of enrollment shifts within the district.
A vacant school in Johnson County may soon become the new Kansas City, Kan. center of the University of Kansas Division of Continuing Education.
The Board of Regents gave permission last Thursday for the University to centralize its Kansas City activities at Linwood School, which is at 99th and Mission Road in Oklahoma City. The Board of Endowment Association will try to purchase the building for about $25,000.
These programs, he said, include an evening MBA program, which will use computers and a program in early grades to help students require enough room to set up a preschool.
Ron Calgaard, associate vice chancellor for outreach, said yesterday that the purchase of the school would allow the students to attend Kansas City that required special facilities.
Calgary said more room was needed for the University's course offerings in the Kansas City area. About 155 courses, triple the number of three years ago, will be offered and will be used in the school is purchased, the University will use it for about 40 per cent of those courses.
Courses will be taught at various places in Kansas City, Calgard said, in part because the school isn't conveniently accessible to everyone in the area.
"We'd like to straddle the county line and
be closer to the Med Center," Calgaard said, "but the school will be a great help."
said, "but the school will be a great help." Classes are taught at several places in the Kansas City area and offices for the Kansas City center are located in three temporary buildings next to the Med Center. Centralization will cut rental costs for classrooms and improve efficiency, Calgaard said.
When administrators asked approval from the Regents, they said they would ask for no additional money to operate the center next year, Calgaard said. Present matters are budget and income from courses offered at the center should meet expenses, he said.
The endowment association will purchase the school and will rent or lease it to the university. It guarded said administrators with wider access to the school district to negotiate the purchase.
Calgaard said the price of the building was the minimum permitted by state law, and the building had been depreciated.

"We are looking for quick, agile people with good hand handling skills, good size and height."
Age wasn't a qualification, Barnes said. The only qualifications were that the candidate must be a U.S. citizen, an American and at least 21 years old. Examination was also required, she said.
The women selected at the regional trials will attend the national trials June 23-28 at Central Missouri State University in Warrensburg, Benson said. Fifteen or more athletes from this group will participate in this group to be the Olympic team. Only 12 may attend the summer Olympics, he said.
The team will train from mid-August to mid-September in Colorado, Benson said. Colorado was chosen because the team's first taste of international competition, the World Championship in Cali, Columbia, will be played in high altitudes.
Those selected to go on to national tryouts are Barbara Wischmeir, Missouri Valley, Iowa; Nita Stephen, Stephensville, Tex.; Joyce Elder, Adel, Iowa; Marla Shuey, Colafx, Iowa; Janie Fincher, Gallm. N; Julie Lucas, Fayette, M.; Doris Felderloff, Muenster, Tex.; Debra Waddy, Osmond, Bevera Renda, Merle Fuddy, Danion; Dionice Runcus, Duncanville, Tex.; Charlotte Lewis, Pooria, III.; Candy Rangler, Centrille, Mich.; Cherr Rapp, Estelline, Tex.; and Molly VanBenthuyen, Moravia, Iowa.
The World Championship, which will be Sept. 23-Oct. 4, qualifies international teams for the Summer Olympics, Barnes said. The top three teams will automatically become
The U.S. team will compete against teams from Japan, Czechoslovakia and Australia in the tournament. If they win two of three games, they move on to the semifinals. If they don't win first, second or third in the competition, they are out of chance to qualify at the pre-olympic qualifying tournament, the location of which hasn't been set, Barnes said.
"We'll be short in comparison to many teams," Barnes said. "We average 5 feet 10 inches whereas the Russians average closer to 6 feet."
The next stop for the team will be the Pan American games Oct. 12-26 in Mexico City. These games don't qualify teams for the Olympics, but because of experience in international play, Benson said.
She said the Russians have players who are 7, 0, 6-10 and 6-5.
