A little more than a year ago, John
Dobbin explored Lawrence for a spot to
bowl.
When he noticed a "For Sale" sign on an 11,000-square-foot building at eighth and New Hampshire streets, Dobbins' ideas began to grow. Within a year that empty building became the Marketplace, the first shopping mall in Lawrence.
A concept new to Lawrence, the Marketplace has been referred to as the city's answer to Crown Center's West Village in Kansas City, Mo.
Much smaller than West Village, the Marketplace has eight shops under one roof. The shops' items range from Mexican chess sets to Chinese antiques.
DOBINS, A 26-year-old Lawrence native, and Jack Gaunnitz, associate professor of business at the University of Maryland worked out an idea to remodel the building.
Design Build Architects of Lawrence designed a building for the shops.
Dobbins and Gaunnitz formed a partnership with three Lawrence businessmen: John McGrew, John Eceldil and Gary Rauck. Five bought the building on Eighth Street.
Originally, Dobbin said, he wanted mostly arts and crafts in the school to give him inspiration.
THE ARTISTS and buyers who leased
their property have the responsibility of
designing the corporate facade.
Aline Holtzman, owner of Su Casa, a Marketplace shop that specializes in Mexican imports, said she had been told by the store that her store was like being in a museum.
"This is something a little different from what you find in the Mexican border shops," she said. "We sell ceramics, wall hangings and copies of pre-Colombian artifacts."
Native American Artists, a shop owned by local Indians, draws from resources a little farther north. The Indians trade with tribes in New Mexico and Arizona for handcrafted turquoise jewelry, paintings, pottery, baskets and rugs.
THE STORE also sells custom jewelry and offers jewelry-making classes.

Another class, choosing antiques, is taught by Mary Mallinowsky, manager of Dirty Thirty's and Earlier, another Marketplace show.

The Marketplace hasn't attracted a great deal of business. Bobbins said.
"The only problem with the Marketplace now is that no one really knows we're here."
Platinum donor visits jewelry professor
A businessman who recently loaned 20 ounces of platinum to the University of Kansas School of Fine Arts visited campus Carlyle Smith, professor of design.
The donor, David E. Lundy, president of Battley-Bishop, Inc., Malvern, Pa., said he wanted to meet Smith, who founded KU's School of Nursing. South retired at the end of this school year.
Smith and Lundy had talked to telephone and exchanged several letters, but hadn't met before Wednesday. Smith's reputation and that of the jewelry department were the reasons KU was selected to receive the platinum, Lundy said.
The platinum is "on loan" to the University for as long as the school finds it useful with, Lundy said. If the metal becomes contaminated, Battie-Bishop, Inc., will replace it. Platinum is concentrated through frequent melting and pouse.
Several other colleges also have received quantitie s of the precious metal from the company.
Members of the jewelry department are experimenting with the platinum to learn how its properties compare with those of silver and gold. Platinum is stronger and more durable than other metals, making it possible to use smaller amounts in jewelry
production.
"Platinum can stand on its merits as a material for jewelry," Lundy said.
Platinum loans to colleges were begun to encourage the use of the metal in jewelry
"The more people who have experience with the metal, the more widespread interest there is."
Batty-Bishop uses platinum to manufacture industrial items, such as decals and paint. The metal also is used in cancer research, and is found in the batteries, glass fiber, automotive tires, glass fiber, and automobile catalytic converters, Lunday said.

REVOK
Parks, who has since married and is now Carol Schrader, testified that she had received a broken rib and a facial cut during the altercation.
Joseph Gardner Jr. 28, was found guilty yesterday in the Douglas County District Court of aggravated battery against his former girlfriend, Carol Parks.
Schrader testified that on the night the battery occurred she told Gardner she didn't want to see him anymore. She and Gardner were discussing a broken date on the porch of the Anthony house when Gardner attacked her, she said.
Testimony during the trial indicated that Gardner and Schrader had lived together from March to October in 1976, but the jury returned earlier he left him to join a Christian relapse.
Man guilty of 2 battery charges
He was also found guilty of battery against Robert Anthony, who had tried to intercede in an altercation between Parks Home, 1333 Broadway, that took place at home, 1333 Broadway, November.
Anthony said that he had suffered a groin injury after Gardner kicked him when he was playing.
Gardner testified he had asked Schrader to come out to the porch to smoke a cigarette and then became irritated watching them through the front window.
He said be then asked her to go for a walk with him and she refused.
Schrader testified that after she refused, Gardner grabbed her arm and when she tried to pull away, he pushed her onto the porch railing.

Anthony said he came onto the porch at that point and was kicked by Gardner. Gardner then threw Schrader over the porch railing, according to Schrader.
Schrader said that during the confrontation, Gardner kicked her three times, twice in the rice and once in the face. She ran away when he heard police car sirens.
Gardner said that he had kicked Anthony because he had feared an attack. He hit Anthony's groin although he had tried to hit his midsection.
Gardner testified that he and Schrader fell against the porch railing and that Anthony came into the porch in a threatening manner.

Gardner said that he had tried to help Schrader to her feet, but that her bulky coat made her hard to hold. He had released her and she fell over the porch railing. Gardner said he thought he was kicking at her posterior when he kicked at her.
"I kicked at her because I wanted her to get up off the ground and because I was mad and couldn't figure out what was going on," he said.

He said he loved Schrader and hadn't meant to hurt her.
The jury's decision was reached after one ballot. But the jury deliberated 90 minutes before they reached the verdict of guilty of aggravated battery.
One juror said last night that the jury agreed initially about Gardner's belief that he spent most of the 90 minutes to determine whether Gardner had acted with intent to injury.
To find Gardner guilty of aggravated battery, the jurors had to be convinced that Gardner acted with intent to injure Schrader.
After the verdict was announced, Jack Maxwell,贤律师 for Gardner, requested a poll of the jury, requiring the jurors to individually announce to the court that the verdict handed down was their own.
Gardner has been held without bond at the Douglas County Jail in connection to a pending murder charge in the slaying of Margaret Maxey, 46, Feb. 6.
His brother, James Gardner, 18, will be arraigned in Douglas County Court for assaulting his son, David today.
