"The only outcome of the adoption of Tasheff's proposal would be that the treasurer's duties would not get done at all." the letter said.

She also said that her bill would make the job subject to more control than it was now. She said the treasurer was responsible only to the student body president, but the StudEx chairman was responsible to StudEx and the Senate.
Tasheff said House shouldn't have used Senate equipment for issuing a letter expressing his personal feelings. She said she didn't know the letter was to issue the letter at the Senate's expense.

"ANY EDITORIAL comments that are made (by Senate officials) should be handled through the Student Senate Record." Taschef said.

In the letter, House charged Tasheff with not going through the normal committee process.
Kevin Flynn, Senate executive secretary,
said that House would be bill $15 to pay
that tax.
Normally a bill is sent to a committee to be debated. But because the new Senate's committees hadn't been formed, the bill was introduced directly to the Senate.
Tasheff said she hadn't waited until new Senate committees have been formed because a decision couldn't have been before the Senate's spring budget hearings.

Near the beginning of the meeting, several senators asked the presiding officer. Steve Owens, owner body president, House wasn't giving a treasurer's report.

Parking fee hike studied

University Council is scheduled to review revised parking and traffic regulations and increased parking permit fees for the 1976-77 school year at its meeting this afternoon.
Cotton, associate dean of pharmacy, is a council member.
Hugh Cotton, chairman of the parking and traffic board, which revised the regulations, said yesterday the council might defer action on the proposal until its first April meeting so council members could have more time to review the changes.
Many composers have written works for Rostropovich. One of the works, "Sonata in C Major" by Benjamin Britten, will close Friday night's concert.
Rostropovich to perform Friday night
Other pieces on the program are: "Aria," by George Fredrick Handel; "Adago" and "Karl Maria von Weber;" Song in a Mafia play; "Sona in a Mafia play"; Beethoven; and three pieces from "Funt Stucke in Volksen," by Robert Schumm. Student tickets are on sale for $1 at the event.
Mistislav Rostropovich, acclaimed by many as the world's greatest living cellist, will perform at 8 p.m. Friday in Hoch Auditorium.
All nonstudent tickets have been sold. But Raymond Stuhl, faculty adviser to the University of Kansas Concert Series and professor of stringed instruments, said that series tickets were trying to acquire 381 tickets for the public from the remaining student tickets.
Stuhl said he wouldn't know until a count was made today whether they are avail-
But Rostropovich has said he misses his country and plans to return when he is allowed the freedom necessary for an artist's expression.
Rostropovich, a third generation Russian cellist who will be 49 Saturday, began to play and compose for the piano at age 4 and began studying cello with his father at 8.
At 14 he performed at a Composer's
Concert in Orenburg, U.S.S.R., as cellist,
pianist and composer, just a year after his
first public performance.
If acquired, tickets for the public will be
$5, $5.50 and $6.
He has since received honors all over Europe and North America.
It is unknown how long he will remain in this country. He has signed a two-year contract to be music director of the National Orchestra, D.C., beginning with the 1977-78 season.
Steve Brown, White City senior and a parking and traffic board member, said the board's major recommended charges were increases in parking permit fees.
Under the board's recommendations,
universal parking permits would cost $50 a
school year; medical and handcapped
permits, $46; blue and red zone permits;
$32; green zone permits, $28; and residence
halle permits, $17.
Now, universal, medical and handicapped, blue; red, brown and yellow permits cost $50 for the school year. Green permits cost $25 and residence hall permits cost $15.
THE BOARD also has recommended that campus passes, now issued at no charge, be received.
Brown said the board recommended the large increase in the cost of universal permits in hopes of making the permits more equitable.
He said the universal pass also would include a campus pass, which according to the board's recommendations, other permit holders would be required to buy.
Brown said another major recommended change was that both registration and permit stickers be placed in the lower right corner of the front windshield next year. Now, the stickers must be placed in the rear window.
The medical and handicapped permits would include a campus pass, Cotton said, accounting for the large increase in price for those permits.
Holders of universal passes can park in all lots and holders of other single-lot permits must pay $2 for each additional lot pass, he said.
Brown said the revised regulations also stipulated that unauthorized cars be towed from stalls reserved for the handicapped. The stalls have been added in parking lots around campus within the past year, he said, and to mention of them in current regulations.
THIS CHANGE would make the campus traffic sticker policy consistent, he said, because campus passes must be placed in a location where they can be read from the traffic control booth.
Cotton said the board recommended a fee for campus passes to reduce traffic on campus.
The regulations have been approved by Keith Lawton, director of facilities and planning, and Mike Thomas, director of police and parking.
**WE TOOK the old regulations, cut them up and tried to put them back together in a new way.**
Brown said the remainder of the board's recommended changes were designed to increase his knowledge.
Cotton said the parking and traffic board, composed of four students and four faculty members, had spent three months revising the regulations.
Cotton said the regulations had been submitted to SenEx to be referred to the University Council for consideration. The council isn't required to approve the roadway or parking and traffic board submitted them after appointed changes and eventual endorsement.
Final approval of the regulations will come from the chancellor's office, Cotton said. He said he expected no major changes made in the board's recommendations.

KU bills go to Bennett
Bv. JIM COBR
Staff Writer
A bill containing appropriations for a new computer facility at the University of Kansas and a radiation therapy center at the KU Medical Center has passed the Kansas Senate and is ready for Gov. Robert F. Bennett's signature.
The governor is expected to sign the measure, which provides $1.8 million in federal revenue sharing funds for the city. The governor also plans $1.8 million in building funds for fiscal 1978.
The bill also will provide $500,000 for the radiation center during fiscal 1977 and $1.05
The 4 million computation center, to be built east of Robinson Gymnasium, will house a new computer system. The system will run for this duration; this month by an evaluation task force.
THE RADIATION center will house expensive and sophisticated radiation sources for cancer treatment, David W. Burkholder, MD, of Northwestern Medicine for the Med Center, said yesterday.
THE BILL includes an 8 per cent increase in faculty salaries and a 10 per cent increase in faculty bonuses.
"This is a significant advance for the state," he said. "We've been holding up quite awhile waiting for the center. Radiation therapy is needed here."
While this year's legislature works toward its April adjournment, action is expected during the next two weeks on several other bills affecting KU.
Hospital operations at the Med Center,
however, will be allowed a 12 per OEE
inpatient.
A MAJOR appropriations bill for state colleges and universities, H.B. 2928, should be discussed this morning in the Senate Ways and Means Committee, State Sen. Wint Winter, R-Ottawa and committee chairman, said.
The bill, as passed by the House Friday, would allocate $43.1 million to KU during fiscal 1977. The Med Center would receive $24.7 million.
Included in the bill are revenue sharing appropriations of $460,000 for planning an addition to Malott Hall and $270,000 for an addition to Robinson Gymnasium.
The governor had recommended 10 per cent salary increases and 12 per cent OEQ increases at KU. Several legislators said they expected that attempts to increase salary raises be made, but were not about whether such moves would succeed.
State Sen. Bob W. Storey, R-Topela, a member of the Ways and Means Committee, said that he would support a move to raise the salary increases back to 10 per year. He thought a majority of committee members also would support such a move.
"IT'S JUST a matter of money," he said. "I personally feel that if the commitment (to increase salaries over a three-year period) goes on, ago, then it should be followed through."
Storey said Senate Democrats probably would oppose a move increase salaries by 10%.
But State Sen. Jack Steinger, D-Kansas City, Senate Minority Leader, said at the hearing that he wants to
that the 2 per cent cuts in salaries and OOE were "a considerable amount of money."
Steineger questioned whether operations at the larger universities and the Med University were part of his research.
A bill that would provide additional fiscal 1976 appropriations for KU and the Med Center still must be considered by a Senate Ways and Means subcommittee.
STOREY SAID that because the bill had passed in the House without major amendments, he felt it was appropriate.
passed in the House without major amendments, it should easily pass in the Senate. The measure, H.B. 2830, appropriates $194,874 of additional OE to KU and $1.75 million for additional salaries and wages at the Med Center.
A one-year extension of a state program providing up to 14 medical and osteopathic scholarships went tentative approval in the Senate yesterday afternoon.
Bills that would allow KU to purchase liability insurance for students and permit the Kansas Board of Regents to issue bills of credit are also being debated in the legislature.

Rock Chalk pairings announced by KU-Y
Fraternity and sorority pairings for next year's Rock Chalk Revue were made last night at a meeting organized by KU-Y in the Hawk's Nest.
The matching process, devised by KU-Y, Panhellenic and the Interfraternity Council, used preference lists submitted by interested Greek groups to make the matches.
"It was a purely mechanical process"

Independent organizations may still participate in Rock Chalk by notifying KU-
John Schwartz, director of this year's Revue, said he hoped this method would give all interested groups a fair opportunity to participate in Rock Chalk and eliminate the competition between groups which have occurred in the past because of poor communication.
Stricter standards enforced for English 101
By BARBARA ROSEWICZ
Staff Writer
James Gowen, director of freshman sophomore English, said yesterday the policy change would help ensure that students who passed the introductory composition course had a command of basic literary skills.
He said special tutoring sections would be assigned for students who had "gross sentence-level problems and gross organizational problems."
Students in English 101 at the University of Kansas will be offered more individual help with writing problems next fall but will pass a final examination to pass the course.
Those students will be identified on the basis of a writing sample taken on the basis of the student's grade.
HOWEVER, if someone writes a bad paper on that day, Gown said, he won't have to take the special session if he later proves his writing ability.
Gowen said the program wasn't a remedial English class.
A student will attend regular class sessions and mandatory sessions, in which he will meet with an instructor and discuss his problems.
Students in English 101 usually have about three conferences with their teachers
Gowen said students in the new program would attend more conferences with special tutors, instead of only three conferences with their teacher.
He said that usually about 200 students out of the almost 2,600 enrolled in the course were not proficient.
BECAUSE NO additional funds have been obtained to hire extra tutors, Gowen said, which will be made available in section of the English 101 classes. This move will free some instructors to act as teachers.
Gowen said the move wouldn't overcrowd regular English classes, because students are not native speakers.
semester ultimately leave the fall introductory composition classes leaving no more than the present class enrollment average of 23 students a section.
The Freshman-Sophomore English Committee and an ad-book committee will meet twice, checking for gross writing problems and grade it on a pass-fail basis, be said, to be sure students know basic writing skills before taking the rest of their required courses.
Even if a student passes the final, Gowen said, he can still fail the course for other reasons, such as not doing the required amount of course work.
A STUDENT will fail the course if his final isn't passed by the committees and he will have to take English 101 and the final examination again. Gown said.
The final will be the same type of three-hour final now given in the introductory composition course. That final presents a subject to consider, and asks students to questions to consider and asks students to
Teachers will still grade the finals, Gowen said, and use the results to determine a letter grade.
write a theme in response to those questions.
"We're not sure we're solving all problems," he said.
THE GRADE on the final examination counts as one-fourth of the final grade.
The final examinations are now exchange-graded. A teacher other than the instructor first grades the paper and then the inquiries books for inconsistencies in the grading.
Gowen said that under current policy a
case would necessarily fail the course

with students at the basic course level, he said.
An advanced composition sequence might also be expanded in the future, Gowen said.
The School of Journalism and the School of Fine Arts have talked to the English department about offering advanced courses in specialized writing.
ONE SUCH specialized writing course has already been offered. It is the English 360 course of Advanced Composition, designed for pre-law students.
Another idea to provide additional composition skills, Gowen said, might be to require students to take a junior-senior course at college or during their nine-hour English requirement.
The purpose of this idea she said, was to promote advanced writing skills after a student had learned the importance of such skills in his other school work.
Gowen said this idea hadn't yet been presented to the Freshman-Sophomore class.
