Students voice election indecision
By CHERYL HAWLEY
Staff Writer
Who to vote for as the nation's president is a decision that hasn't been made by 16 of 25 University of Kansas students interviewed Wednesday.
Earl Nehring, professor of political science, and Cynthia Flynn, assistant professor of sociology, both said the students' indecision was probably caused by the uncertainty of who will be nominated by the major parties.
Of the 16 students who were undecided, three said they were beginning to favor certain candidates. Of the nine students who had made up their minds, three said they would vote for President Gerald Ford, one for Ronald Reagan, former governor of Texas and former Morris Udall, D-Ariz, for two Edmund (Jerry) Brown, governor of California.

Views on inner-city woes varied
An influx of poor people to the inner city since WW II coupled with the exodus of industry and erosion of the tax base have many central cities in financial difficulty.
Bv FRED JOHNSON
Interviews with three University of Kansas professors indicate that there are different opinions about whether the deterioration of the country's central cities can be halted and how a reversal can be accomplished.
Russell Getter, assistant professor of political science, said recently that although the Federal government hadn't solved the problems of the central cities, it
THE MOVEMENT of commerce and industry to the suburbs moved jobs away from low-income people who needed them, Getter said. The subsequent loss of the tax base made it difficult for the city to provide housing for people who remained in the city, he said.
had learned to cope with them on a month-to-month basis. He said the government had learned to be flexible in its assistance to the cities. For example, Gettar said, in 1961 federal aid to municipal governments was $40 billion; today it is more than $40 billion.
"The cities have had to use federal revenue sharing funds and other federal sources for their operations."
said. "This means that they don't have much money left for capital expenditures. If the city raised its property tax to gain additional revenue, the remaining industry would be encouraged to move to the suburbs or to leave the region of the disadvantaged aren't being met."
The state governments could redraw the boundary lines of local governments so an agency could be able to meet the needs of the people living in that area, he said, or the federal government could require the suburbs to make a certain amount of low-cost housing available to low-income residents.

Wollmann said students should never be afraid to see a doctor because they don't know.
For students who pay full fees there is no additional charge for almost all services of the physicians and for most diagnostic lab services. For these services their services are provided at reduced costs.
"There is never a condition of ability to pay before a student receives treatment," he said.
The daily room charge for students who paid full fees are only $23 a day, compared to $60 if no health fee was paid. Wolman said most hospitals charged more than $60
Payment can be made over a period of time if necessary, he said.
WHEN A STUDENT pays full fees at the time of enrollment, $38.50 is for the student health fee. That fee covers 75 per cent of the funding for Watkins, which is entirely self-supporting. Twenty-four per cent of the services are from the changes for some of the services and one per cent comes from an endowment from the estate of Elizabeth Watkins.
Students questioned in the waiting room yesterday said they expected to spend at least an hour at the hospital when they went to see a doctor. But all of them said they were satisfied with the care they had received on previous visits.
The speech is part of the Minority Affairs Cultural Enrichment Series sponsored by the University of Iowa.
Actors to speak in culture event
Davi Hodges, Shawnee Mission senior.
Davis, who has credits for playwriting and motion picture directing as well as acting, is best known for "Purile Victorious," a play he wrote in 1962. He has performed in 13 plays in the last 30 years, including "The Production of A Raisin in the Sun" in 1899. He appeared in eight motion pictures, the latest, "Let's Do It Again."
Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee, a black husband-and-wife team who has appeared in more than 30 motion plays and plays, will appear at 7:30 tonight in Hoch Auditorium.
Dee has appeared in numerous plays and more than a dozen motion pictures including "Buck and the Preacher." She has edited an anthology of poems for children, and other Poems" as well as recorded and conducted recital tours of black poetry.
The last of the Minority Affairs Cultural Enrichment Series will be Tuesday with the showing of the movie "A Raisin in the Sun," starring Dear and Sidney Potier.
said she thought the doctors spent enough time with the patients but that getting in to the doctor was time consuming. Hodges said she would spend those classes when she wanted to see a doctor.
ALBERT WEAVER, Lawrence junior,
said that he was generally satisfied with the doctors and that they thought it did a good job. On previous visits to Watkins, Weaver said, he had to wait anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour and one-half.
Phil Dellasaga, Leawood junior, said that he had been waiting for 20 minutes but that he usually had to wait at least an hour. Dellasaga said he was satisfied with the treatment he had received in the past, but熟得 Watkins should hire more doctors.
GETTER SAID solutions such as this would never be tried because people living in the suburbs had enough political power to protect their lifestyle.
Elizabeth Henley, Lawrence sophomore, said that she had been waiting for an hour and that when she had to see a doctor she tried to go when she didn't have any classes.
"I try to come with two hours free," she said.
Henley said she thought the hospital needed either more doctors or a branch that would be able to treat her.
CLAIRE GLEASON, nursing receptionist, said she saw most students who came in and most of them understood why they had to wait so long.
Gleason said the wait for students was half an hour to two hours, depending on weather conditions.
"The wait is always longer during the cold and flu season," she said.
Gleason said she tries to explain to students why waiting occurs. One doctor is always on call for emergencies, each doctor has a day off, doctors have meetings which they must attend and some of the doctors teach. she said.
One of the services offered at Watkins and used by a number of students and faculty at the University.
Immunizations can be received for foreign travel, entrance to the KU Medical Center, tetanus, flu and many other purposes. Bee also said a number of special groups were immunized each year in students on geology field trips, museum classes and ROTC members. Boo polsters and typhoid shots also can be obtained.
ANNETTE BEE, allergy and immunization nurse, said she saw between 30 and 40 children.
Bee said there was no charge for any of the immunizations, except yellow fever, if the bee had been injected.
"These are given at any students' request," she said.
Faculty and staff may also get immunizations at a slight charge.
Herman Lujan, director of the Institute for Social and Environmental Studies, said the central cities might see a rebirth in their economic capacity under intensive transportation. He said that if the oil producing countries increased the price of gasoline by the early 1980s, people might move back to the central cities to take advantage of less expensive transportation and land.
Bee said any students wanting immunizations for foreign travel this summer should try to get them before final exams and get them ready "would always comfort after the shots."

The cities probably will have to continue to cope with their problems from month to month.
"The poor in the central city will be hurt by rising prices and helped by the increase in the tax base, which will allow the city to do more for them," he said. "The poor may follow cheap housing to the suburbs when the middle class moves back to the central city." The poorest population with enough middle-class people to support the poor through taxes."
AS PEOPLE and industry move to the suburbs, the value of land in the central city will decrease, he said. At some point, however, it will be economical for industry to move to the city rather than pay for expensive suburban land, he said.
Joseph Pichler, dean of the School of Business, agreed that transportation would be an important factor in determining the future of the central cities.
Pichler said one solution would be to educate people in the central city and teach them the skills needed to handle white-collar jobs. Desegregation of housing also created new opportunities for colorblind workers could move freely to areas where they were needed, he said.
HE SAID that the skilled people needed for white-collar city jobs live in the suburbs. The workers needed by suburban industry live in the central city, he said.
statements and policies." she said
Henry Jackson, Lane said, is too emotional.
Reagan's fiscal policy to reduce the yearly percentage increase of the national defense budget, a senior senator, sidesthe liked about the former California governor. He said he would vote for Reagan if he were nominated, but if he did not nominate he would vote for any Democrat.
"I like (Jimmy) but, he hedges the heel. I like Udall, to, but I don't think he will. I like Dalton."
Chris Lane, Lawrence junior, said, "I wouldn't vote for Reagan for dog catcher. I wouldn't vote for Hunter."
"He reacts to things rather than thinking about them," she said.
She said if Reagan got the nomination she would voce for anyone else.
One student, who said she preferred to be unidentified, said she liked Jerry Brown because he didn't have the traditional students' favoritism toward certain groups.
In this campaign, Nehring said, there is a greater degree of uncertainty about who the candidates will be because of an increased number of primaries and a change in the Democratic party's rules on the selection of delegates.
Kent Eisler, Lawrence junior, said he didn't care to discuss politics and didn't believe in political parties. The emphasis in his speech, on is the Democrats and Republicans.
Mike Gillispie, Lawrence law student, said he was learning toward Udall as the legal judge.
winning said it is typical for students to feel no candidate represents youth.
"There is no serious contender I can really back, including Uttal." he said.
"I vote for the man. This party business is stupid," Eisler said. "Sometimes a good man loses in the primaries because he is applauded."
