Wednesday, April 4, 2001 --- The University Daily Kansan Section A · Page 5 Event highlights literacy By Sarah Smarsh writer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer University of Kansas professors, coaches and students volunteered yesterday with area youth to improve literacy. The Center for Community Outreach sponsored two "readouts" to highlight advocacy for literacy during Into the Streets Week, the Center's annual effort to increase community service and issue awareness on campus. Professors and coaches read to children at the Hilltop Child Development Center, 1605 Irving Hill Road. KU students later read to children at Ballard Community Center, 708 Elm St. Pat Pisani, executive director of Hilltop, said reading to children helped their desire to read on their own. "It increases their interest in written language because they're hearing spoken language that's fun and excited," Pisani said. Volunteers at Hilltop Included Terry Allen, football coach; Sally Frost Mason, dean of liberal arts and sciences; Mary Klayder, professor of English; Marian Washington, women's basketball coach; and Roy Williams, men's basketball coach. The event complemented the ongoing National Week of the Young Child, Pisani added. ly reading to capture the imaginations of the children, ages 3 to 5, with books that included A Bug's Life and various Dr. Seuss titles. Maureen Seferovich, Lenexa junior and organizer of the read-outs, said the volunteers used live- "They were really great, keeping them entertained with their interesting voices." Seferovich said. "I read quite often to them, so it was really a pleasure to be involved in it," Allen said. Laura Hays, Wichita freshman, was among the student volunteers at Ballard. She said she hoped reading to the children would go beyond the literacy cause and spread a lesson about community. "Maybe seeing some older kids coming out and helping will make them want to help someone when they're older." Hays said. Bankston and Harris said apathy toward Senate would decrease if Senate did more things students could see everyday. Harris cited VOICE's proposed centralized hub on campus, where students could Edited by Svdnev Wallace Browning calls for new Senate leadership pick up periodicals and buy snacks. Mills said money could be spent on other things. Continued from page 1A Browning said Senate needed new leadership and students were being sold short by both state government and student senators. Things became heated when Browning spoke about the Parking Department and used an expletive during his speech. He later apologized and said he was very emotional about the Parking Department and other issues at the University. Edited by Sydney Wallace Zoning issue vital to city commission election Continued from page 1A solutions to keep those neighborhoods vital. "I think it was a lot of hard work on the part of a lot of volunteers," Dunfield said. Incumbent Erv Hodges finished fourth with 4,060 votes, Scott Bailey finished fifth with 3,961 and Adam Mansfield finished sixth with 2,527. Mansfield said he would continue to stay involved in city issues and said he was happy with Dunford's re-election. Dunfield has emphasized the importance of long-term city planning for development in Lawrence during his campaign. He said as an architect, he had been looking at zoning in the older neighborhoods in Lawrence and for Bailey said he intended to stay involved in community issues that had concerned him during the election. "I think he's done a good job and will continue to do a good job," he said. "Clearly traffic is a big one for me," Bailey said. "We'll find solutions to some of those, and I hope to be a part of that." Hack and Dunfield will serve four-year terms on the Commission and Kennedy will serve a two-year term. — Filed by Benedict Strover SUA Spring Films April 4-May 5 --tate 7:00 147 Min The Graduate 9:30 105 Min When Everett (George Clooney), Pete (John Turturo) and Delmar (Tim Blake Nelson) break out of a prison in Mississippi, they go on a bizarre search for the measure hidden before they are incarcerated Wednesday April 4 Preview: Blow 8:00 O Brother Where Art Thou 10:00 106 Min All movies are shown at Woodruff Auditorium.
