KU puppet troupe teaches through entertaining plays
Entertainment can be educational. At least that's the idea behind the Wonderland exhibit, a troupe of puppeteers in the University of Alabama's Educating Education Arts and Museum Program.
"our goal is primarily entertainment and secondarily education," Jim Nabors, director of the arts and museum program, said yesterday. Nabors said the troupe performed in libraries, schools and shopping centers across Kansas.

student and the leader, said the troupe tried to apply puppets to problems of education. The troupe, comprising KU students, devises ideas on how to educate by using puppets, and puts the ideas in practice on the statewide tours.
ASLA SAID that special interest groups often commissioned the troupe to perform. In these instances, Asla said, the troupe tailors the presentation to the needs of the participants. The troupe asked Truck Roadeo has asked the troupe to present a program on truck safety, he said.

"The programs are based on folk and fairy tales," Asla said, and the troupe takes a well-known tale and adds a modern twist to it.
Nabors said the programs appealed to people of all ages, but usually the audiences
One of the tales, Asa said, involves Police B. Bearley, a Bearley, Cinderella (or speedy car) officer.
"Bearly is a police officer from Boise, Idaho, who has a drinking problem," he said.
Nabors said all the characters have separate personalities.
**AMONG THE** other characters are Pounce de Leon, a lion; Babba Yagga, a wicked Russian witch; and a zebraorn.

the rent due date. The Bakers, who paid rent on a month-to-month basis, notified the management that they were leaving 28 days before they moved, Nation said.
The troupe always adds new parts to the program, according to Asla, who builds and designs the puppets the troupe uses. Large puppets take about one week to build.
John W. Brand Jr., attorney for the apartments, said that under the 1979 Kansas Resident Landlord Tenant Act, tenants who didn't have a lease and paid rent on a month-to-month basis were required to give their tenants their intent to move before the rent due date.

"Usually the landlord and tenant can work something out if there are problems and the manager is aware of them," Brand said. "From what I know about apartment maintenance, we have an atmosphere where things can be worked." After all, they're human, too.
He said that the Bakers hadn't told Nation of any problems, but instead went to several community agencies that aid renters who were not legally married. He said, he decided to handle the matter officially and the couple, even though a lawsuit normally wouldn't be filed for such reasons.
Brand said that he wrote a letter to the bakers to remind them of their obligations to the company.
Mrs. Baker said that she wouldn't pay the rent unless ordered to do so by the court, but she didn't want to take the issue to Frydman, an attorney for the Legal Aid Society, Inc., in Lawrence, but hadn't asked what, on what she called, a feasible solution.
They moved into a second apartment, she said, after cracks in concrete in front of the entrance of their first apartment caused the break. The door was closed. Baker said that the second apartment had cracks in the linoleum that caused heat that the linoleum that backled was dangerous.
Baker said she didn't think she should pay the rent because Nation refused to perform an inspection of the apartment before the Bakers moved in.
"One thing tenants have to do before they call the city is help themselves," she said. "I'm here for valid complaints, such as screens falling off windows, broken windows or problems with heating, but there are lots of things tenants can do themselves."
She said that many tenants don't keep their apartments clean, or don't care for their pets and the Frontier Ridge housing standards. And met city minimum housing standards.

He referred to a letter Broughton had written to Wakarusa Manor, in which he requested that an aide from the home occupation from Wakarusa, that doctor's appointments not be scheduled between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. and that the personal appearance and hygiene of several passengers be improved if a doubt didn't cause discomfort to other passengers.
Thompson said that his cab company wouldn't make any of those demands on its customers.

Broughton said nursing homes—Wakarusa in particular—had been abusing the mini-bus service. He said that the Manor received Medicaid payments for its patients, and that a portion of that money should have been used for transportation.
"WE'VE NEVER had a problem with the other nursing homes," he said.
"The drivers-I don't know where Cal finds them, but the service they give is much more than just providing transportation.
Broughton also said that many patients needed aides because they couldn't get around by themselves, and that his minibus was the only alternative to the request that aides accompany patients.
Nell Mitchell of the Jayhawk Area Agency concluded the meeting by saying. The human element has been forgotten in the decision-making-bus program means a lot to the people.

"And there's something about getting in a group of people your own age with your own age."
Broughton said, "The folks who use the mini-bus now are very afraid that they're
going to lose it."
The commission deferred a final decision on the matter but decided to visit Saline County next month to investigate its subsidy program.
