Blood shipments affected by strike
By Bryce J. Tache
At Greyhound bus drivers con-
tinue their strike, an area民安
Red Cross chapter is relying
and staff drivers to transport胀
Drivers for Greyhound Lines Inc., one of the major shippers of blood for the Red Cross, were to begin their sixth day on the picket line today.
Kansan staff writer
The King's Daughters' Medical Center in Ashland, Ky., has used taxis for deliveries about 10 times a week from a blood bank about 30 minutes away.
Union officials yesterday asked striking drivers to use their own cars to deliver blood to hospitals and supplies had been disrupted.
Kalen Larson, assistant director of the office of communications for Red Cross Blood Services in Wichita, said the strike had not greatly affected blood deliveries to Lawrence.
"It's more of an inconvenience," she said. "It has not caused any major problems, but if the service even more, but problems may arise."
She said Greyhound bus service had been spotty since the strike began
Tim Jensen, station manager of the Lawrence Greyhound station, 1401 W. Sixth St., said that there
were fewer blood shipments during the first days of the strike but that all shipments now were being made.
"Things are back to normal," he said. "We have two to three blood shipments a day, and that is usual. We shipments take top priority."
Larson said about 30 volunteer drivers and 15 Red Cross employees were shipping blood to 130 patients in Kansas and Oklahoma.
She said that volunteers and employees provided shipments all year but that they had heavier loads because of the strike.
"We make 18 scheduled runs every week," she said. "That includes daily runs to Lawrence."
Blood taken at the American Red Cross Blood Center, 329 Morgantown St., is shipped to testing and equipment in Wichita, Larson said.
Brian Rubbery, media manager for the Red Cross headquarters in Washington said that some bus drivers had reported fewer blood shipments but that he had no specifics.
“There are 2,800 Red Cross chapters,” he said. “It is possible that the strike could be affecting some of the smaller areas, but I haven’t heard of any problems on a national scale.”

Med Center names dean for school
By Steve Bailey
Kansan staff writer
A new dean has been selected for the School of Medicine at the University of Kansas Medical Center
James Price, chairman of the Department of Family Practice, was named dean designate of the School of Medicine effective March 1, said Nancy Miller, spokesman for the Med Center.
Price will become dean after the current dean, Martin Pernoll, leaves office May 31. Pernoll resigned in December. He was out of town yesterday and could not be reached for comment.
James Price had been chairman of the Department of Family Practice since 1982.
D. Kay Clawson, executive vice chancellor for the Med Center, said the dean designate would perform the duties of the dean while the dean was out of town.
Price had been chairman of the Department of Family Practice since 1982. Miller said Price resigned the position of chairman when he left the dean designate position. A new department chairman has not been named.
Price said he was asked to fill the position after an internal search committee from the Med Center recommended him for the job. He then requested that the position be a one-year term.
"After considering the proposal, I decided to accept the position," Price said. "I asked that it be a term appointment because I would be approaching my 65th birthday near the end of that period. However, there is the capability by mutual agreement to extend the term."
Clawson said the 'Med Center should have a permanent dean by the year'.
"Long before then we will have searched for and selected a dean,"
"At that time I elected not to accept that resignation until after the holidays, feeling and hoping he would change his mind," he said. "Dean Pernoll has worked very hard and has done a superior job."
Clawson said he received Pernoll's resignation on Dec. 20, 1989.
