You would't believe the schedule I got . . .

Chalmers defends options
Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers Jr. defended his action in offering KU students a choice of options at the end of the spring semester before a television panel recently.
Appearing on a television program entitled, "What Happened at KU?" and broadcast over WIBW television, Chalmers said he knew of no activities at the University which had been suspended by his action.
"The faculty continued their teaching, making evaluations until the end of the semester," he said. "More than half of our students took their final examinations."
Chalmers said KU was probably less prepared for the Cambodian invasion and the Kent State deaths than any other university in the nation because of the arson of two weeks previous to the incidents.
In answer to questions posed by the three-man panel about the future of KU in the fall, Chalmers said the University faculty, administrators and students would have to do some intensive soul searching when classes open in the fall to ease tensions.
"We must ask ourselves year-by-year, are we doing the opti-

Chalmers appeared on the program at the advice of John Conard, who will be the new director of University Relations and Development.
$100,000 fire damages stores local draft board
Damage estimates for the fire that erupted Saturday morning in the 900 block of Massachusetts Street in downtown Lawrence were set at well over $100,000 by Lawrence Fire Chief Fred Sanders.
Cause of the fire, said Sanders was tentatively attributed to faulty wiring in the basement between 925 and 927 Massachusetts.
Windows of the stores were smashed to allow trapped smoke to escape.
Three stores and the Professional Building, which houses the U.S. Selective Service office, were damaged in the blaze. The fire was reported at 9:16 a.m. and brought under control by the Lawrence Fire Department at about 11 a.m.
Firemen used four trucks to fight the fire, and exhausted their supply of chemical foam in an effort to bring the blaze under control.
The other stores damaged were Pound's, a recently opened fabric shop and Ray Stoneback's electrical appliance store, which suffered smoke damage.
The fire was reported by Willard Doores, operator of Doore's Stationery, one of the stores damaged by the flames. Doores suffered burns on the left arm when he tried to combat the fire with an extinguisher before contacting firemen.
An employee of an adjacent store reportedly heard an explosion when a vacuum cleaner was plugged in just before the fire started.
Reports of a prowler in the basement of the building Friday were not immediately connected to the fire.
