From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for August 22, 1989:

• The opening of a new Kansas University campus postal station was to be postponed for one week. The influx of students, the full slate of enrollment and other activities, and delays in the training of new personnel were stated as causes for the delay. Lawrence Postmaster Bill Reynolds said the small contract station in the Kansas Union was to have opened on the previous Monday. Elimination of the U.S. Postal Service substation at KU was to bring the campus in line with other universities and would also save the Postal Service money, Reynolds said.
• Lawrence police this morning had no suspects and no motive in the early morning fire-bombing that had caused $500 damage to a downtown tavern. A local man who had been gathering aluminum cans near AJ’s 8th Street Bar, 117 E. Eighth, had called police at about 4:20 a.m. to say that the building was on fire. Upon arriving, officers had discovered a broken, charred bottle lying near a broken window and some fire damage to the window frame and surrounding area. The fire had burned out by the time police arrived. Lawrence police spokesman Chris Mulvenon said police had also found five unlit Molotov cocktails and another firebomb that had been lit but apparently not thrown near the building.
