(Continued from Page 1 from a severe thunderstorm to a tornado, they issue a "watch" to the endangered area, alerting its forecasters and spotters. When actual tornadoes materialize the local weather stations issue "warnings." The center's director, Frederick P.

Ostby, 58, finds release from storm- watching tensions by skating in an amateur hockey league. The other day he strolled down a corridor lined with pictures of the most destructive tornadoes, a rogues' gallery of killer storms. They included the "Tri-State Outbreak" of March 18, 1925, which killed almost 700 people in Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. "Every day is exciting in its own way," Ostby said. "But sometimes the most satisfying days don't look like much." He recalled May 12, 1980, when the Storm Center issued a "watch" for the Sedalia, area.

Alerted, a spotter sighted a tornado, a weather office issued a warning and sirens blared. "A trailer park was destroyed, but nobody was killed," Ostby said. "It wasn't a big story, but a lot of lives were saved." In the 1930s, 1,685 tornadoes were reported, with 1,947 deaths. In the 1970s, the total spotted was 8,575. The deaths had dropped to 990.

Homes (Continued from Page 1) last year. Although the program was not federally funded between 1974 and 1980, it subsisted on repayments of loans made from the $1.2 million grant. The $300,000 grant is intended to keep the program alive through this year. Weiss said he plans to apply for another grant in April that would extend the program. Weiss, who is retired from the Air Force, receives a salary for administering the program but said there is another reason he does it.

"Primarily I do this because I believe in the program," Weiss said. don't like misdirected welfare." Weiss would not elaborate on what he classifies as misdirected welfare but explained why he does not think the housing rehabilitation program falls into that category. "Most of those we help are wid- o.wed ladies on fixed incomes of between $350 and $600 a month," Weiss said. "They can't afford to put a $2,000 roof on their house when it starts leaking, and no one is going to Stations (Continued from Page 1) charges for emergency preparedness have not increased, and the service still receives and gives Salina stations direct access to weather service information, said coordinator Don Rectenwald. Larry Steckline, owner of the Mid America Ag Network, which has 20 radio stations in Kansas, dropped the weather service wire "the minute I heard what they were charging." At KXXX-AM 790 in.

Colby, the monthly rate would have jumped from $68 to $680, Steckline said. Mid America hired two new people at its Wichita station whose duties include recording weather information from the weather service wire at the station and supplying it to other Mid America stations, he said. Kansas stations also recently lend them that kind of money. So without this you end up with elderly in the community whose houses are falling down around them. "These are the same people who have been paying taxes for 40 or 50 years.

It's a rebate. It is not a welfare program." Joy Martin, 70, 400 W. Claflin, fits Wiess' description. When her husband died more than 10 years ago, she was left with a house that was still not paid for. She worked for several years in maintenance and as a housekeeper until she became too ill to work.

When she quit working she still had several house payments to make that consumed most of her savings. When the plumbing went bad in her house, Martin did not know what to do. "I just couldn't make the money stretch that far," she said. When Martin discovered the rehabilitation program, she asked for help, and they replaced the corroded pipes in her house. Once again, she had water pressure.

"They helped me, and I'm thankful," Martin said. "I couldn't have done it myself." learned they face back charges for the service. According to Siegel, the access rates took effect in May 1986, but a mix-up resulted in stations not being billed for the increased rates. The mistake was discovered recently, he said. "I'll be honest, made a mistake in not correctly raising the rates of some of the customers," Siegel said.

When employes went on strike in May 1986, the company was in such disarray that the increase may have been overlooked, he said. "Our thought is these rates fell through the cracks," he said. According to the Kansas Corporation Commission, the company must charge the forgotten fees. Under Kansas laws, a public utility must charge "no more or no less" of the corporation commission- approved rates, said commission lawyer Jo Jenkins. must charge the rates but has the option of making up the lost costs from other company funds, she said.

is charging the back fees and is giving stations an extended period to pay off the fees. Steckline believes it is unfair for to charge the back fees, because the mistake was made by the phone company. He described the rate increase and back charges as a "most shameful thing" and is considering suing "It is a real unfortunate situation, and I feel like we're getting the short end of the stick from Black said. regrets its error, Siegel said, and has applied to the corporation commission for lower access rates. But until then, the company must charge the correct rates, he said.

"We regret this has happened," Siegel said. "The fault is clearly ours." For your information Sanctions (Continued from Page 1) is inclined to turn against him. Senior Latin American diplomats said Friday that Noriega had been offered political asylum in Spain. But there was no indication the general would accept such an offer. Reagan also ordered stepped up scrutiny of Panama by U.S.

Immigration and Customs Service officials "to apprehend drug traffickers and money launderers." Panamanian Ambassador Juan B. Sosa said he was pleased with Reagan's announcement. By themselves sanctions will not be enough to bring down Noriega, but this goal will be achieved when combined with the actions of the Panamanian people, Sosa said. Based on information he refused to disclose, Sosa said he was "very optimistic" that Noriega intends to depart Panama shortly. The administration is trying to force Noriega's ouster and weaken the military-dominated government by increasing the cash-squeeze in Panama.

Measures already taken with U.S. support have caused' a severe cash shortage, prompting the government to suspend many banking operations, crippling Panama's economy. U.S. military and economic aid to Panama was cut off last year following the initial popular uprisings against Noriega in June. Last week, the United States ruled that Panama was not cooperating in efforts to control drug trafficking.

Under the finding, the United States was required to stop military and economic assistance which already had been done and to oppose Panamanian requests for assistance in international lending institutions. (Continued from Page 1) muddled one. Trailing Bush badly in delegates and in polls in that state, Dole pulled more than $200,000 in television ads off the air and dismissed more than half his campaign staff. "We're hanging by our fingernails," he said in Moline. "We need to somehow capture the attention of the Illinois voters." Dole bought a half hour of live television time on a Chicago station for Saturday night and said, "I dare George Bush to have a debate." He pointed to the plea to Iran- contra charges Friday by former White House aide Robert C.

McFarlane and said the Iran-contra issue won't go away for Bush. Dole said his campaign had between $1 million and $2 million on hand. But he was reeling from his 17- state collapse on Super Tuesday, when Bush won 16 of those states and took a giant step toward the nomination. "What we need is to slow down this Super Tuesday momentum," Dole said. "We will reassess after Illinois.

I am going to be very realistic about this." Corrections Because of incorrect information given the Journal, the gender of a baby boy born to Scott A. and Dawn R. Growl, 1060 Marymount, was listed incorrectly in Friday's edition. The year in which Glenn Cunningham set his world record for the mile run was incorrect in Friday's edition. The 4:06.7 minute record was set in 1934.
