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, so they hired a team of hit men to rub him out.
The work of this gang of tanned assassins can be seen or heard from almost anywhere on campus. Chunk is dead, smokestack is dying a slow death.

Perkins said that the two boilers receiving new smokestacks should be operable by Oct.15,depending on the weather.
New vice chancellor selected
Until then, the two boilers now on line should have no problems handling the work load this summer and fall, he said.
"One of the boilers can handle most of the summer heat. In winter, however, we'll have both of them up to full operational capabilities, and sometimes a third," he said.
Workers are proceeding by digging out 4-feet-square sections of the smokestack, cutting reinforcing 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.
For the first time, a woman will be the executive vice chancellor for the University of Kansas Lawrence campus.
Judith A. Ramaley, acting executive vice president for academic affairs at the State University of New York at Albany, was selected for the job from 55 candidates, said Del Shankel, chairman of the executive vice chancellor search committee
As of yesterday, about 40 feet of the smokestack had been torn down, Perkins said, but as the stack gets
