Part-time jobs add variety to life
By S. Allen Winchester
Kansan Staff Reporter
You saunter into a bar.
"What will it be?"
"Two tall draughts and an order of french fries—say, aren't you in my economics class?"
He might be, because many KU students have part or full-time jobs ranging from bartending to ski instructing, from cafeteria work to guarding the Museum of Art.
Part-time bartending is a popular job with many KU students. Tim Vaughan, Wichita senior, works 21 hours a week and carries 17 credit hours.
"When I have a test, I can usually find a substitute," he said. "The job is a double savings for me; I work when I would normally be out spending money and therefore also save it."
John Gangi, New York City seniior, also is a part-time bartender. He works about 12 hours a week, during what would be leisure time.
Fine Arts will present two concerts
The School of Fine Arts will present two concerts next week when the KU Concert Choir gives its annual fall performance and the University String Quartet gives a recital.
Both programs are open to the public without charge.
The Concert Choir, composed of 125 students, will perform at 3:30 p.m. Sunday in the University Theatre. Director Darrell Benne will lead the group in traditional Christmas songs and music by Brahms, Poulenc, Distler and Thompson.
Four-KU faculty members forming the University String Quartet will present a chamber music recital at 8 p.m. Monday in Swarthout Recital Hall.
The group will play "Quartet in D Major" by Haydn, three pieces from "Mikrokosmos" by Bartok-Serly and "La Oracion del Torero" by Turina.
Violinists for the Quartet are Howard Poyajian, chairman of the string department, and Paul Todd, assistant professor of music theory.
Karel Blaas, assistant professor of string instruments, is violinist, and cellist by Raymund Stuhl, professor of string instruments.

"I like the job, because it has good fringe benefits, better than I could have gotten with the University," Gangi said.
Web Cummings, Kansas City, Mo., third year law student, is guard captain for the Art Museum patrol. He works about 16 hours a week and carries 14 credit hours.
Cummings' job is to see that no one walks off with paintings or other art works. The museum patrolmen do not wear uniforms but are dressed in casual clothes.
Cummings said the only thing that has ever been stolen is a coffee pot, missing since 1965.
He said one advantage to his job is he can study while working. He can usually be found at the reception desk at the entrance of the museum.
Jack Armbrister, Lawrence sophomore, is a night dispatcher at the Traffic and Security office in Hoch Auditorium. He works from 32 to 40 hours per week and carries 15 credit hours.
His job is to take information from campus police cars via a radio transmitter and receiver and relay additional information or assignments back to police cars.
"I also need the money to keep my car running, although it is hard to keep up a job and do school work properly," he said.
"The last four hours of my eight hour shift are pretty quiet so I manage to get some studying done." Armbrister said. "If I get behind, I can usually catch up during the weekends. I like police work because there is something different happening each night."
"I don't like school, but I like to drink beer, so I work," said T. J. Austin, Parsons junior. Austin works about 12 hours a week serving food in McCollum Hall cafeteria.
Ray Niemear, Hutchinson sophomore, is carrying 19 credit hours and working 20 hours a week at the Center for Research and Engineering Sciences (CRES). He is a computer programmer. As a freshman, Niemear was head photographer for the Jayhawker. He has a 2.54 G.P.A.
Dave Myers, Overland Park sophomore, is a ski instructor at Mont Bleu near Lawrence, during the winter. Mon Bleu uses artificial snow for its slopes. Myers also is a grocery store checker.
"Studies always come first, but so far my employers have been
pretty agreeable when I've had tests," he said.
Students seeking jobs can find help at the Office of Student Financial Aid, 26 Strong Hall, or the State Employment Service, 839 Kentucky.
Similar job opportunities are offered by the State Employment Service.
The other job-finding program is the College Work-Study Program. Students needing part-time earnings to stay in school are eligible for this program. To remain eligible, students must maintain good class standings while employed.
Jobs are also available at all residence halls.
