Prof: Tensions build as new era dawns in Poland
Police ignore violence, he says
By Christine Reinolds Kansan staff writer
Jaroslaw Piekalkiewicz, professor of Soviet and East European studies, spoke about the current economic and political structure of Poland to about 20 people at the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont.
The forming of a new system of government has caused tension among the Polish people, a KU professor said last night.
"Poland is entering a place where young people are asking their parents, 'What were you doing when patriotic Poles were killed?'", Piealkiewicz said. "They ask why their parents supported such a system."
of Lenin and Marx, and the police are ignoring the political violence, he said.
Anna Cienciala, professor of history, attended the lecture and responded to some of Piekalkiewicz's comments.
"You cannot draw the line between supporters of the communist government and nonsupporters," Ciencias said. "Most people were in the middle and had to live in reality as it existed."
Pikalkiewicz said that bitterness did exist between groups that had supported the communist system and supported the new system of government.
Poland dissolved its communis government a week ago to form the
Social Democracy of the Republic of Poland.
"The Poles are determined in their beliefs, fighting for their ideals and willing to make sacrifices for those they are not likely to compromise."
Poland's economy is suffering because its diversity in manufactured goods is limited, he said.
Since the end of the civil war in Poland in 1953, there has been no investment in agriculture. One-tenth of the Polish population lives on farms and 87 percent of those are private, Piekalkiewicz said.
In the past, the government had discouraged prosperous private farmers by taxing them heavily, he said.
John Garland, associate professor of business, was also scheduled to speak but could not make it.

Midshipmen receive recognition for service and academics
By Buck Taylor Kansan staff writer
Applause interrupted the usual tranquility of Summerfield Hall yesterday afternoon where KU Naval Academy hosted a spring semester awards ceremony.

Nearly 70 members of the about 100-person unit were presented with several different awards by the unit's commanding and executive officers.
Capt. Richard Shurts, commanding officer of Naval ROTC, said members could receive up to four standard Navy awards.
"Each semester we have an awards ceremony just to recognize people for their outstanding performance or for the previous semester." he said.
Awards were presented for superior merit in scholarship, physical fitness, good conduct and distinguished service.
Shurts said scholarship awards
"We give the good conduct awards to midshipmen who are basically doing well in their classes and in various functions within the unit." Shurtz said. "Then the distinguished awards of all special awards except they need the 3.2 GPA instead of the 3.2 for the regular scholarship award."
went to midshipmen with grade point averages of 3.2 or higher. Physical fitness awards were based on the Navy physical fitness test administered in the spring. The award was given to members scoring more than 275 points out of the possible 300 points.
One member of the unit, Sam Froese, Bristol, Ind., junior, and a platoon commander, received a special award for having run 3,000 miles in three years.
"I am on the track team, so that helps me out," he said. "After each 1,000 miles completed, you receive a

physical fitness and conduct awards. In addition to the awards presentation, the unit honored retiring executive officer Elaine Roberts with a plaque and a battalion softball cap. Roberts, who has held her position at KU for five years, said she was exchanging her uniform for a pair of jeans after a 20-year career in the Navy.
"I consider it a privilege to have served with this battalion." Roberts said. "The key words are served with not the word but, but served with a great battalion."
Dan Searles, St. Louis senior and midsiphanist 1st class, praised Riverside
"Not only was she an excellent teacher," he said, "but she was also instrumental in preparing seniors for their commission into the fleet."
