6 Wednesday, January 20, 1988 / University Daily Kansan Haskell to get repair funds By Donna Stokes Kansan staff writer Haskell Indian Junior College will receive $1.28 million in federal funds this year to bring the college up to fire and building code standards. Rep. Jim Slattery, D-Kan, has said that the college will need an additional $4 million to $6 million in the next five years to improve safety. Cynthia Rapp, press secretary for Slattery, said yesterday that critical repairs would include updating emergency exit lights and old electrical wiring, as well as fixing problems with fire exits and pathways, such as crumbling staircases. Water lines also need to be fixed to gain water pressure equal to fire code standards, she said. Charles Thomas, facilities manager at Haskell, said, "There are 42 buildings on the campus, and about them could use some improvements." The improvement money will come from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs. Improvements already are taking place. Thomas said. "We are really happy that we're getting a lot of the problems fixed, although we do have a long way to go." Powhattan, a residence hall, is currently under renovation and will be up to fire and building standards by October, Thomas said. The renovation of Pocahontas Hall is planned. That should also be completed by October. Renovations of other buildings, including the auditorium and the administration buildings, will follow. "We are considering safety first and foremost." Thomas said. Rapp said that Slatterry thought it was a priority to keep the college safe and well run. Slatterry will ask for additional improvement money from the Department of the Interior until the problems are resolved. "Slattery thinks it is shameful that funds have been cut from the Bureau of Indian Affairs," she said. 749-4333 JODA & FRIENDS LAWRENCE PAWN & SHOOTERS SUPPLY DISCREET,QUICK LOANS Jewelry, Audio- Video eqpt, Typewriters, Cameras, Musical Instruments, Firearms & MUCH MORE BUY, SELL, TRADE Mastercard, Visa, Layaway 718 New Hampshire 843-4344 JODA & FRIENDS Hair Cutting * Perme * Highlighting Fasces * Manicures * Pedicures Waking * Ear Perching * Tanning 3009 w. 6 841-0337 Open 7 days a week Permanent Hair Removal The Electrolysis Studio Free Consultations 15 East 7th 841-5796 FOREIGN LANGUAGE STUDY SKILLS PROGRAM --feasible," said Douglas County Administrator Chris McKenzie.

When the Surface Transportation Act passed in 1987, it included $7.2 million for the trafficway. But a technical error, discovered months after the act passed, allowed the county to use the money on only about four miles of the western leg of the 3.3 mile length. The four miles spanned the eastern leg of the trail from Clinton Parkway to Interstate 70 west of Lawrence. An amendment to correct the error passed Congress on December 18, and it allows the county to use the federal government's tax base. "It makes construction on the entire roadway more The $38 million trafficway is planned to loot south and west of Lawrence, joining Highway 10 with L70. Last week, city and county officials sent a letter to Senate Minority Leader Bob Dole, thanking him for the role he and his staff played in pushing the amended bill through Congress. "We solicited and appreciate his help in getting the language changed," said Douglas County Commission Chairman Dennis Hopper. "He really works for his constituents, and we appreciate his efforts." An official from Dole's Washington office said that the amendment, introduced by Dole, needed only clarification and was corrected easily. francis sporting goods inc. sporting goods, inc. 843-4191 731 Massachusetts Lawrence, Kansas 66044 Intramural court support! adidas basketball shoes $20 off!
