Remains identified as Lawrence man
by a Kansan reporter
The skeletal remains of a Lawrence man who had been missing since 1981 have been identified with the help of a Kansas State University anthropologist, the Douglas County Sheriff's Department said Monday.
Nickols Dikov's skeletal remains were found Jan. 7 by a fisherman above the banks of the Wakarusa River, about a mile southwest of the city.
Dikov in October 1981 walked away from the Cherry Manor rest home, 3015 W. 31st St. It has since been renamed the Colonial Manor

"I estimate that it (four metatarsal) was broken at an early age and never healed properly." "Finnigan used to be severely shorter than the opposite foot."
According to the Douglas County Sheriff Department, Finnigan's analysis assisted County Coroner Carol Modell in identifying Dikov's body last week.

Graduate to 'give something back' as a teacher with the Peace Corps in disadvantaged country
by Alan Morgan
Kansan staff writer
In Mali, El-Hodiri, 22, will teach secondary-level mathematics. She graduated from KU with a degree in French and economics and decided that the Peace Corps would give her a chance to see if she should pursue a career in teaching.
Teaching is a profession Naglaa El-Hodrii always has wanted to pursue, but living in a mud hut was not part of her original plan.
It is now.
Eli Hoodri, a 1988 KU graduate, admitted into the Peace Corps. After completing a three-day orientation program in Philadelphia on Jan. 30, she will fly to Malia, in Africa.
"I've always wanted to teach, but I guess that I kind of gave up on the idea for awhile during college." El-Hodri said. "This will give me a chance to see if teaching is really what I want to educate students with self-censored up to now, and this is a way that I can give something back.
"The Peace Corps is also something that I have wanted to do for a long time. I'm the type of person who doesn't need the aid commercials on TV."
two KU students from Mali, and was able to get a better understanding of what to expect from her trip. She said they recommended living in a mud hut if she had the choice because it would be much cooler during the summer. In April and May the temperature can be as high as 120 degrees.
El-Hodiri will spend two and a half years in Mali as a teacher. The U.S. government will pay her expenses while she is there.
"In the Peace Corps, you are expected to live at the same level as the people you are helping." El-Hodiri said. "You are given a lot more money to live on than they
have, but you're not supposed to exploit your wealth."
exploit your wealth.
Eld-Hodri said that she would have the option of living with a family in Mali or living on her own. She said that she would like to live with a family, but was not sure of the type of house in which she would live.
can be as high as living outside the United States
will not be a new experience for El-Hodri. She lived in Egypt from the time she was 6 months old until she was 3. She has returned to Egypt many times since then but she traveled in Europe and spent her junior year of college studying in Bordeaux, France.
The year she spent in France will help her because Mali's national language is French. El-Hodiri also must attend a 15-week training course to learn Bambara before she begins teaching. Bambara is another language that is spoken in Mali.
El-Hodiri is not alone in her desire to use her education in the Peace Corps.
Beverly Raynor, public affairs specialist in the Peace Corps, said that the Peace Corps usually received 20 to 30 applicants on each recruitment trip to Lawrence.
"KU is a really active campus in which the students are very socially aware," Raynor said. "We usually attract a lot of teachers and political science majors from KU."
"I wish that I could be reassured that the mathematics I will be teaching in Mali is the same stuff as I did while tutoring, but I really won't know until I get over there." El Hodiri said.
El-Hodiri worked as a tutor in the mathematics department at KU.
"Everybody tells me not to go over there with the idea that I can change the world," El-Hodiri said. "I just want to see myself get something done.
