Oread Bookshop in the Kansas Union Monday, April 2 3:00 - 4:30 pm OREAD BOOKSHOP UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Faulty clock mars Dam Run By Molly Reid A malfunctioning clock may have accounted for Steve Coulter's disappointment with his winning time in the 5 kilometer (3.1 mile) leg of the 1980 Dam Run on Saturday at the Clinton Lake Dam. Kansan staff writer Coulter, a sophomore member of the Kansas track team, crossed the finish line in 16 minutes. 50 seconds. Coulter said he was not sure if he wanted his coach to see his time, but clock problems may save his reputation. "On a pace run, I cross the three-mile mark at about 15:20," he said. "I was hoping to be down around there." many runners competing in the 20 kilometer race said the times shown on their own watches deviated from the finish-line times by almost eight minutes. Lymn Ludorf, special events supervisor for Lawrence Parks and Recreation, said that although the race had been an annual event for 10 to 12 years, this was the first year the race began in Outlet Park, and problems Clock problems were not anticipated by officials, but official times differed from the runners' unofficial times in many cases. Recreation Services, and the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department cosponsored the races, which began at Outlet Park directly east of Clinton Lake. The courses started and finished in the park, with the 10 and 20 km races stretching along the dam. "There are a few kinks, but it is the first time here." Ludorf said. Approximately 150 people of all areas participated in the run. were inevitable. Ludorf said official results would be mailed to the runners. The first three finishers in each age category of each race received a medal. The races were divided into men's and women's categories for runners ages 24 and under, 25-34, 35-44 and 45 and over. Coulter said he decided to run in the race because he was not selected to travel to the LSU Purple Tiger Invitational with the track team this weekend. "I just wanted to get out and do it," Coulter said. "When I was running from my car, my calf tightened. That's why my time is so bad. Even feeling bad, I just wanted to keep up with Gordon Way." Way, a KU graduate and former member of the Kansas track team, competed in the 20 km, winning the overall race as well as the 25- to 34-year-old age group in an official time of 1:06:17.

Event raises awareness of hunger By Sandra Moran Karen still writes Kansan staff writer KU students will get an opportunity to eat meals typical of affluent or deprived nations in this week's third annual KU War on Hunger. Karin Denes, president of KU Students Against Hunger, said participants in the dinner would be divided into three groups and fed meals typical of First-, Second- and Third-World nations. Sixty percent of the participants will eat a Third-World dinner of rice and water. Twenty-five percent will吃 a Second-World dinner of potato soup and iced tea. The remaining 15 percent will eat a turkey dinner with stuffing and green beans. Denes said this group would drink Coca-Cola because it was typical of First-World affluence. Denes said the purpose of the weeklong event was to raise community and student awareness. Other events will include a daisy sale in front of Wescoe Hall, a Bands for Cans concert at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., and a talk by Karen Herman, a Kansas City area hunger activist. Money raised during the event will be used to establish a local food bank, she said. This would be the first such service in the Lawrence area. Denes said many food manufacturing companies and local grocery stores had agreed to donate food to the bank. A food bank is a non-profit organization that sells donated food to local soup kitchens at a minimal price. "I've talked with many people at the Salvation Army and other agencies, and they think it's needed," she said. George Amos, Salvation Army Safe House employee, agreed. "It's all we can do to have the food here," he said. "The need is here." Student group to strive for better advising By Carol B. Shiney Kansan staff writer David Sneed from the Center for the Study of Higher Education in Memphis, Tenn. KU's Graduate Representative Assembly should improve advisement as part of its mission, a research assistant from Memphis State University said Friday. the assembly, which is a new campus organization, should ascertain student needs in adviser/advisee relationships, determine how to meet those needs and take action, said "The graduate assembly can use these ideas and should be a leader to get these things moving on campuses," he said. Sneed gave a presentation on the "Adviser/Advisee Relationship" to about 20 people at the Graduate Representative Assembly meeting Friday in the Kansas Union. "Always it's important to know that graduate adviser/advisee relationships are as much the student's responsibility as the adviser's," he said. Heithem El-Hodiri, chairman of GradEx, the executive committee of the Graduate Student Council, said the meeting was the first for the new assembly. FREE PIZZA!
