Speaker urges political action
By Elaine Woodford
Kansan staff writer
University students shouldn't be bystanders during the election season, the state chairman for the Kansas Republican Party said yesterday.
"I think that political involvement at this age in your life is a great experience," chairman Fred Logan said.
Logan spoke last night at a meeting sponsored by Student Uni- tivities in the Kansas Liberty Railroad Rock
Logan said students might think that the only way to get involved and make a difference was by working on presidential campaigns. But local and state campaigns are excellent ways to get involved in the political process, he said.
Presidential campaigns are more work than glory, Logan said.
"The presidential campaign is nothing more than grunt work." he said.
Logan encouraged all students, not just Republicans, to register to vote and to affiliate with a political party.

"Don't just sit there, take a stand, take a position." he said.
Logan said that the state Republican Party wouldn't focus on the presidential campaign

"It is very rare for a state to have a favorite son as a presidential contender. We think Dole

Logan also spoke about the importance of
Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole as a contender
for the Republican presidential nomination.
Dole supporters are hoping that he can beat Vice President George Bush by at least five to 10 percentage points in today's New Hampshire primary.
"If Dole can beat Bush by five to 10 points, he can win the nomination," Logan said.
Pat Robertson has been the wild-card candidate who has surprised political observers, but Logan said Robertson had only a ghost's chance of capturing the nomination.
Robertson backs Cuban missile claim
"I think that Robertson is helping Dole by showing the weaknesses of the Bush campaign," he added.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Pat Robertson said yesterday he wouldn't back off his assertion that there are Soviet missiles in Cuba, drawing an emphatic denial from the White House and skepticism from a man identified as his source. Campaign rivals blasted the assertion as outrageous and rash.
Robertson told a GOP candidate's forum in Dover, N.H., "the least we can do in this is get those nuclear weapons out of Cuba," a reiteration of statements he had made Sunday during a debate.
But later in the day, the former television evangelist said he had been asking a question, not making an assertion, when he made the
controversial comment.
"I was asking in the debate: 'Is this true?' he said. "I have no sources other than what I've said, so there was no categorical statement per se."
Yesterday in California, White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said SS-4 and SS-5 missile sites established in Cuba in 1962 were confirmed as having been destroyed in that year.
"We also are confident that the missiles were removed from Cuba at that time," Fitzwater said. "We have had extensive intelligence collection directed at Cuba since 1962 and have no evidence that SS-4, SS-5 or other strategic missiles have been deployed there."
Lead-off primary voters pick Bush, Gephardt
The Associated Press
DIXVILLE NOTCH, N.H. — Midnight voters in the New Hampshire mountain hamlet of Dixwille Notch today gave Republican George Bush and Democrat Richard Gephardt the winning votes in the nation's 1988 lead-off presidential primary.
More often than not, Dixville's votes have been a bellwether for candidates seeking the presidential nomination.
Bush received 11 votes and Gephardt 4. In the rest of the debate, Bush was unable toJack Kemp 5. Pete du Pont 2. Alexander Hag 2 and Pat Robertson 1.
Among the Democrats, Paul Simon received 3 votes. No other Democrats
received votes.
"In the primary, Dixville has a pretty good record in choosing the eventual candidates for each party," Town Clerk Till Tomlinson said of past elections. "It's just when we came to November, we'd frequently be in the wrong party."
Since 1960, Dixville Notch voters have sided with the loser in all but three presidential elections. They picked the winners in 1972, when they favored Richard Nixon over George McGovern, and in 1980 and 1984, when they sided with Ronald Reagan.
Few residents of the resort town in northern New Hampshire were willing to discuss in advance how they might cast their ballots.

Canada Lee, Sidney Porter, Joyce Carey Adapted by the author himself, this extraordinarily powerful, greatly acclaimed and still timely film portrays the tensions that grip South Africa in profoundly human terms. Two men — one white, the other black — have sons whose lives beaten and murdered determined by their racial discord. Flooded on location and set in the contrasting Environments of a South African back country village in Natal and the cosmopolitan city of Johannesburg, this is a moving treatment of racial tensions and the accompanying trials of religious faith.

Getting the job you want isn't easy. Especially for recent college grads. Very few majors will prepare you for a specific career, and guarantee you get hired right out of college. For the rest of you, finding something you like won't be simple. You could contemplate grad school. Or law school. Two or three more years of school, and student loans comparable to the national debt. There are very few jobs out there that require little or no experience. Jobs that you would enjoy, where the only requirement is a college degree.
Graduation will be here soon enough. Consider a civil service career with the Federal Aviation Administration. For more information about a career as an Air Traffic Control Specialist, including an application, send your name and address on a postcard to:
