Illicit campaigning charges upheld
Dave Shapiro and Mark Anderson, former candidates for student body president and vice president, were recently found guilty of unethical campaign practices by the Association of University Residence Hall (AURH) Judicial Board.
The board on March 25 said Shapiro and Anderson had been guilty of door-to-door campaigning. Neither was present at the meeting.
The two had been charged in a petition submitted Feb. 17 to the Student Senate Elections Committee of State, minutes of the vote, and Sellhards Pearson Hall. The matter was later referred to the AUHR board.
As a result of the board's meeting, Shapiro and Anderson were issued a warning about their actions during the campaign.

would help. We just hope the actions taken will keep this from happening, again."
She said the complaining women had been insulted because Shapiro and Anderson didn't show up at the meeting. She said that the March 25 meeting had been the second one called and that Shapiro and Anderson had responded to neither.
"It was like a slap in the face," she said. But Shaparla said he and Anderson didn't attend the meetings because they felt the contempt of them and that it wasn't worthwhile to attend.
"The way it was phrased make us look like the bad guys forcing ourselves onto people and that just isn't true," Shapiro said. "We were escorted by a resident at all times and only went to doors of people we knew and only went our escort, who also was a friend, knew."
Shapiro said the action taken by the board was a force because it didn't set any pointers.
"There were no rules set or punishments," Shapiro said. "So we aren't supposed to do it again--but what's to happen if they also does it? Will they only get warned?"
Shapiro said he thought the accusations were blown out of proportion.
Although it may not have hurt his campaign, he said, "Well, it didn't help."
Steve Owens, student body vice president,
said he was glad it wasn't made into a big problem and that he thought the whole campaign was fairly clean.
"As far as the future is concerned," Owens said, "it might be a good idea to provide the Senate office with copies of AURH's campaign rules so candidates could pick them up when they file for office. You can't always sure about the rules ourselves."
Bruce Woner, Senate Elections Committee Chairman, said the elections committee wouldn't pursue the matter any further.
If the swine flur comes in this fall, the University of Kansas should be ready for it.

KU prepares for flu vaccine
President Gerald R. Ford asked Congress last week for $135 million for swine flu vaccine for 215 million Americans. The House approved the plan Monday, 354-12. The president's largest ever attempted—will call for the vaccine to be ready in September.
Martin Wollmann, director of student health services at Watkins Memorial Hospital, and Tuesday that when a vaccine would be able to receive vaccinations, would be able to receive vaccinations.
The swine flu, which originates from pigs and hogs, has characteristics similar to other more common flu viruses, according to Russell. Bussell, professor of microbiology
"There is nothing essentially different. From reports I've seen, one could have told the difference between it and other flus until the virus was isolated," he said.

"No other cases have been reported, but there is concern that it is a warning sign of an epidemic for this winter," Wollmann said.

The swine flu is of a kind that caused an international epidemic in 1918 and 1919, killing 20 million people worldwide and 548,000 in the United States.
"The vaccine is just now starting to be prepared, and it should be ready no later than 2018."
"We are still awaiting word of how distribution will be handled." Wollmann said. "All that is known is what is coming out of the White House."
He said that the United States Public Service didn't have any plans for bandwound students.
Wollmann said that there was no cause for alarm, though, because no cases of swine flu had been reported except those at Ft. Dix.
After lying dormant for nearly half a century, the flu afflicted six army recruits at FT. Dix, N.J., two months ago. One of the recruits died.

PREMIERES
About 1,000 KU students were hit by the swine flu in the fall of 1918. Three of those students died from the swine flu, which was then called the "Spanish influenza." The epidemic was believed to have originated in Spain.
Loiskman, infection control officer at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, said that if money for the vaccine available, he would be ready to distribute it to the public this winter.
Wollmann said that he guessed that batches of vaccine would be available at different times and that priorities would be made to decide who got the vaccinations first.
"The elderly and the chronically ill will be vaccinated first as they are more susceptible to diseases." Wollman said. "Then it will be given to the rest of the population."
