According to Bryonia Wiley, vice chairman of the Douglas County Republican Council, each of the three county commissioners elects sheet 21 delegates to the county convention.

Doug Bell, chairman of the Students for Ford Committee, said most University of
first year that a meeting had been held before the county convention. She said the convention was an attempt to bring the election process down to the grassroots level to get more involvement from county Republicans.
Most managers said exact increases, didn't yet been determined.
Rises in the cost of utilities appear to be the main reason for proposed rental increases of apartment complexes in awrence.
People who attend tonight's meeting will be divided into three groups when they arrive. County commissioner district 1 will meet in Building 1, district 2 will meet in Building 2 and district 3 will meet in Building 21.
Most increases will take effect this summer and will range from 10 to 15 per cent, involving more than half of the complexes in Lawrence.
Malls Old English Village increased its rates in January but won't increase
"We had to offset the increase in the cost of utilities," Clarence Hubbard, copmanager of Malls Ole English Village, said yesterday. "Our utilities have increased about 17 per cent, but we have only increased our rent 12 per cent."
About half of the managers of the complexes planning increases said tenants renewing leases wouldn't be affected by the increases.
THIS IS DUE to encourage tenants to stay and as a courtesy to long-time renters,
Pat Bailey, Lawrence Property Management (LPM) rental manager, said, "The increases are probably because the company has been growing and general up-keep costs are all on-spine out."
Rental rates at most of the complexes had been raised last year also, managers said. Several, however, said they would be offering special summer rates.
BAILEY HAS information about Parkman Duplexes, Alvamar Quail Creek, Jayhawker Towers, Campus Quadlexes and other schools, which will have some increase. she said.
Nancy Evans, manager for Crescent Heights, Acorn, Acam and Gaslight apartments, said that often the increases were for thins tenants didn't consider.
"Tenants often forget about roofing or plumbing repairs, but the costs for these are high."
*Buying things like hot-water tanks and such is expensive without the rise in demand.*
Joe Stoup, manager for Birchwood Gardens, said another reason for the increases was that real estate taxes and insurance rates got hither each year.
ECONOMIC competition has played a
important role in the development of
Apartment and Spanish Crest Apartments.
Thelma Jones, manager of Spanish Creed, there might be a slight increase in the rate.
"We feel that we've had quite a demand or apartments along with rise in cost of装修."
Other apartment complexes planning increases, according to their managers, are Argo, Frontier Ridge, Park 25 and Park Plaza.
Of five complexes not planning an increase, there said they had had increases in three—Trailrider, the Management of these three—Trailrader Square complexes—and they knew of no new increase and said the previous increase was made in anticipation of rising utility costs.
The management of Avalon, Harvard Square and West Hills complexes said it was unure of whether there would be an agreement or decision would be made later this spring.

Apartments, said he didn't expect an incr-

Edwards also said she expected a large number of uncommitted delegates at the commissioners' convention because of the number of people who hadn't made up their minds on whether they were going to support or former Calif. Gov. Ronald Reagan.
Terry Edwards, chairman of the Douglas County Ford Committee, said she hoped to have a large number of delegates supporting Ford at tonight's meeting.
Burkhead said he thought Reagan's victory in last week's North Carolina primary would boost his candidate's chances to get the nomination.
Dean Burkhead, Douglas County Reign for President, chairman, said that he was eager to see how Reagan did at the campaign convention. He had done well in other Kansas counties.
"He (Reagan) isn't written off any more as a candidate." Burkhead said.
Last weekend the first time SUA
injured a cover charge in the Hawk's Nest,
they ran into a police officer.
John Works, Hawk's Nest manager for SUA, estimated yesterday that the crowd size was about 200 on Friday night and 150 on Saturday.
Average attendance on Friday and Saturday nights this semester has been about 290 persons, Miller said. The capacity of the Hawk's Nest, however, is 500 persons.

"From a financial standpoint we didn't break even." Works said. "But there was enough reinforcement that we aren't going to have to discontinue any plans."
SUA testing live music's popularity
SUA officials predict that remodeling of the Hawk's Nest to accommodate daytime food service and study, plus evening entertainment, will be completed by this fall.
Nightclub entertainment in the Hawk's Nest is now being tested more severely to see if it will cause problems.
But he said he thought that, despite the current disco craze, there were still many students interested in live band entertainment.
Weeks said competition from other local clubs may have been a reason for the less than ideal team performance.
"This will give us an idea of what we'll be shooting for next fall." Miller said.
"People are going to be surprised at what can be done with the union facilities."
MIKE MILLER, SUA advisor and coordinator for remodeling, said SUA hoped the Hawk's Nest could be financially self-sufficient. The team is completely funded by the SUA and their partners.
"The decoer has got to be something that is complementary to daytime activity as well as nighttime. It should be a natural part of the room."
"We're not just putting together a party room, because the Hawk's Nest already has everything we need."
Miller, who has prepared an evaluation of this semester's Hawk's Nest project, said SUA is constantly analyzing possibilities to determine the best use of the space.
IT'S PROJECTED that the Hawk's Nest can operate successfully on Friday and Saturday nights with live entertainment. Not, the program must be subsidized, be said.
The evaluation is based on the cost of food service and entertainment in relation to the height of the customers. The estimate that evening openings for the Hawk's Nest can be self-supporting if 250 people paying a $1 cover support attend each event and spend approximately $1.25 for food service.
AN ATTEMPT to present the KU Jazz Ensemble in the Hawk's Nest Thursday afternoon this semester failed because he didn't seem enough to make it worthwhile. Miller said.
Millionaire at Midnight and Oz will perform during April in the Hawk's nest. Miller said. The March of Dimes Dance Mathon will be there Friday and Saturday.
Miller said that a disco format had been originally planned this fall for the Hawk's Nest remodeling. But it was decided that there was a greater need for a place presenting live dance music in a pleasant atmosphere, be said.
Benefit finances to be determined
The future of benefit district financing of public improvements in new subdivisions will be discussed by the Lawrence City Commission at 7 tonight.
The commission will discuss whether to discontinue or modify its public poency for financing the construction of public immediately. The commission will seek sewers for planned housing developments.
Under benefit financing, the city acts as a loan agency to developers who want to sell
Since 1973 it has financed the improvements on the lots by floating general
The cost of the bonds are passed on to the
owner of the lot, who pays annual special assessments leveled against the improved
SUA hopes the project can be operated next fall by student managers.
One reason the commission will review benefit financing is the recent rise in the amount of delinquent special assessments. Approximately $120,000 and is being paid by clients. In other business, the commission will discuss a request by Marty Miller, student commissioner representing Lawrence High School, be purchased for a motorcycle park.
The commission will also discuss an authorizationizing a stop sign on Jayhawk.
