CAUSE: Growth leads to second school proposal The result of that, Johnson said, was crowded classrooms, writing off struggling students by not giving them personal attention and allowing fewer students to participate in extracurricular activities. Continued from Page 1A. One reason for a defeat on a similar proposal in 1900 was racial and ethnic concerns, said Al Azinger, superintendent of Lawrence Public Schools. He said many voters worried that the new school, which would have been on the west side, would cater to the rich, white residents shown to dominate that neighborhood in the 1900 Census. Poor and minority students on the east side would attend old Lawrence High. This year's proposal more fairly divides the town, Azinger said. Adding buildings or more stories to current buildings would be too complicated and expensive, he said. But Clay Comfort, representative for Sound Alternatives for Educational Excellence, disagreed. Minutes from a study group that met in 1991 showed that the architectural firm Gould Evans said adding to the old campus was cheap and feasible.

He said the district needed to spend more money on improving the teacher-student ratio instead of costly construction projects. Krista McGlohon/KANSAN Comfort also said more teachers would mean more advisers for student groups. One argument for a new school is it would create smaller student groups so everybody could get involved. But Comfort said more teachers would better facilitate that. "The only way you get more active with more kids is to have more teachers available." he said. Comfort also said the Lawrence School Board tacked $11.1 million of improvements to other schools on the bond issue. Because such improvements have passed easily in the past, he said, tacking them on was a way to make a bad idea look better. EFFECT: Bond issue may raise taxes, rent increase. The property owner will make for the additional taxes by increasing rent. So students renting apartments will pay property taxes indirectly. every dollar they purchase. So a student with a food budget of $1,500 a year will pay an extra $15. But both sides of the school debate have encouraged KU students to vote with the education of the community, not their own finances, in mind. Should the 1-cent sales tax on the ballot also pass, students will be paying more in an entirely different way. Lawrence property taxes will be decreased by 7 mills, making up for the rise in the levy from the school district. But students still would pay 1 cent more for "Democracy is not going to survive without an informed electorate," said Al Azinger, superintend of Lawrence Public Schools. "I would hope KU students would be part of that electorate." Continued from Page 1A. SLATTERY: Decision-making experience is a must for governor Continued from Page 1A. agricultural background made him a candidate who understood the needs of Kansans. He wears black cowboy boots on the campaign trail, a symbol of the 21 years he spent on his family's farm. He is in touch with voters, and he plans to make their lives better, he said. "I have a specific crime plan and a job creation plan," Slattery said. "I've called for reforms in health care, and I have an ethics reform plan. I know how to improve the state of Kansas." He is the candidate of change, Slattery said, while Graves plans to make minor modifications to the status quo. Slattery has pledged that he will end the good-old boy network in Topeka by prohibiting legislators from voting on projects they have personal interests in and by granting the tion, Slattery has spent 16 to 18 hours a day campaigning, explaining who he is and what he stands for to voters.

"But I have to believe that it will pay off in the end." Throughout the campaign, Slattery has been the underdog, trailing Graves in every poll. But his campaign will peak on election day, he said. Despite the 16-hour days, Slattery still jogs at least 15 miles a week. "I've been called a maverick, while Graves has been dubbed the silver spoon," Slattery said. "I'm confident that the maverick will win by a nose at the wire." Your Vote Can Make A Difference.
