Old smokey will be a missed KU landmark
By PAUL BELDEN
Staff writer
For more than a half-century the tall, slim sexagenarian has worked for the University of Kansas department of facilities and operations.
His job was to remove waste from the number 7 and 8 boilers at the KU power plant. He also helped many out-of-towers find the University. He did these chores unfailingly, seven days a week.
He had one vice, however: he smoked quite a bit. . like a chimney, in fact.
But University officials didn't need him anymore. He hired team of him at the university.
The work of this gang of tanned assassins can be seen or heard from almost anywhere on campus.Chunk by chunk, the KU smokestack is dying a slow death.

Workers are proceeding by digging out 4-feet-square sections of the smokestack, cutting renforcing steel bars imbedded in the concrete, then letting the sections fall into the smokestack, Perkins said. The rubble is being dumped at the KU landfill west of Iowa Street.

Perkins said that the two boilers receiving new smokestacks should be operable by Oct. 15, depending on the weather.
As of yesterday, about 40 feet of the smokestack had been torn down, Perkins said, but as the stack gets greater and taller, all else goes.

Until then, the two boilers now on line should have no problems handling the work load this summer and fall, he said.

seeing children who needed help. Mark said he remembered the day that a child in his care ran away from a group home.
"I didn't sleep for two days. I felt guilty. I thought, 'What did I do, what did I do?' " he said. "I thought maybe I should quit."
But he stuck to it, and now he and Liz have their home on what they pleasant Ridge. The home and its neighboring group home are located in a 40-acre clearing on top of a wooded hill south of Lawrence. A mile-long gravel driveway winds down to a county road.
The house and grounds are immaculate. The kitchen is spotless, and in the children's rooms, everything is in its place. Outside, the children help clear snow from the road in the winter and mow the lawns and cut firewood in the summer.
Mark said that such work was a new experience for most of the children and that it was good for them.
"And if we're going to be like a real family, well, we don't need to be doing that."
Working with children and letting the Villages worry about the finances and regulations is the best part, they said. "I think the Villages philosophy behind that is if we're going to be strapped down with paperwork all the time and writing these reports, we can't be proper parents," Mark said.
Mark said he would prefer to
do more parenting and have less contact with the children's natural parents.
"I have a really hard time with some of those parents," Mark said. "I can put up with kids mouthing off to us all day long. But you get an adult mouthing off to me, and that's a different story.
"Sometimes this person beat this kid for 10 years, or sexually abused them, and then they start saying I have been rude.

Mark and Liz handle things so well that the children often return to seek advice or to introduce their girlfriends and boyfriends.
"You have to look at the rewards," Liz said.
She said it was satisfying to see the children graduate, knowing they wouldn't have done so without having lived at the group home.
