Silent protest
The latest development in the continuing controversy surrounding the move of the Jimmy Green statue in front of old Green Hall is a sign someone placed in the statue's hand yesterday afternoon. It isn't the first time someone found Green's outstretched statue, but the statue also has been seen holding beer cans and has been painted purple many times.

Senior musicians, students jam

The musical group that calls itself the "Senior Musicians" is not the latest in hard rock, but Room 310A Bailey Hall certainly rocks when the band practices.

Every Friday morning a group of 10 older citizens of Lawrence get together with music therapy students from the University of Kansas to make music.
The music program, which is its second year, is a part of the regular Senior Scholar program administered by the Adult Life Resource Center. The Senior Scholar program offers free courses at Kansas Board of Negels schools to anyone 60 years old.
Bus 62, a minibus provided by the Council on Aging, brings the old citizens to Bailey.
The senior musicians take lessons individually or in small groups from the students from 10 to 11 a.m. Afterward, the whole group gathers to pay as a band.
TEN MUSIC THERAPY students are now involved in the program.
Other students come to observe and learn.
The students receive credit for their activity.
"The group began as a harmonica and guitar band, but so many people expressed interests in learning to play other instruments that we expanded our program." Alicia Clair Gibbons, instructor of music supervision, said Tuesday.
The clarinet, flute, xylophone, piano and drums have now been added to the band.
Gibbons said that the music therapy
Football seating debated; committee opposes change

The Student Senate Sports Committee passed a resolution last night opposing any move by the University of Kansas Athletic Association to allow its student seating at football games next year.
The resolution was in reaction to a request Tuesday from Doug Messier, assistant athletic director, for the Athletic Seating Board to consider reducing student seats at football games to increase sales to the public.
Burt Nurley, student assistant to Messer,
said there were two options now being considered by the seating board to change student seating.
Messer said Tuesday that the move would increase revenues for KUAC and help reduce a possible deficit of more than $100,000 that KUAC may face next year.
The resolution strongly urges KUAC and the Athletic Seating Board to disapprove of any move to reduce the number of prime seats offered to students. Copies of the resolution will be sent to Messer, Gydie and Danielle. The executive vice chancellor
THE FIRST OPTION is to offer seats in
the north end zone to students at a reduced rate and offer the current student seats near the 50-yard line to the public for the full season ticket price.
The second option is to move the band seats close to the end zone and sell the curtain.
"We could probably sell 700 tickets to the public at prime rates next year," Nunley said. "That amounts to approximately one million sections of the lower deck of the stadium."
Jeff Chaney, sports chairman, said reducing student seating would hurt KUAC in the
*Building strong student support now would lead to students buying season tickets
THE RESOLUTION will go before the full Senate for an approval at its May 3 meeting.
Chanay told the committee that the athletic seating board was going to conduct a poll of KU students to find out what they were offered and received student seats at basketball carnes.
He said 600 students would be contacted by telephone April 24-26 and would be asked several questions about issues concerning KU sports.
"Sometimes we are taught," she said.
"The senior musicians have a lot to share with use about their music and how it was performed when it was popular.
students were not always the teachers in the music sessions.
"THEY SHARE THEIR MUSIC with us and we share the currently popular music
Ruth Cole, Huntington, W. Va. senior, who is studying music therapy, said she really liked the book.
"I feel close to all the people that participate and like the feeling of everyone working together," she said. "I feel like we have a music experience every week."
Gibbons said that anyone interested in music and in getting involved with other musicians was welcome.
"You don't have to have any musical skills whatsoever to participate," she said.
'We do whatever we can to help a person develop the skills he wants. We begin from the level on which a person is capable and take it from there,' she said.

ON THE OTHER HAND, Alice Fuel, 838 Garfield SJ, wants to learn to read music. But she has not told her student teacher that she can improvise on the piano.
"But I wanted to learn to pick it up by ear," she said.
Another senior musician, N.E. "Bo" Abella, 54 Oklahoma St., said he did not know anything about music when he joined the program.
"But I've always been interested in the clarinet and thought I'd learn to play." he
Irene Manele, 1137 Tennessee St., said that she had played the flute in college.
"That was 50 years ago and I hadn't stayed since. I just decided I buy a buret in a store," she said.
Gibbons said that Malone had begun to pick up her skills and develop self-confidence in her playing abilities by working with the students.
"People's self-esteem is our prime concern. We try to build up self-esteem by developing successful experiences. Success is the key to self-esteem." Gibbons said.
THE STUDENTS AND senior musicians will perform at 11 a.m. today at the American Baptist Campus Center, 1629 W. 19 St.
Bennett eliminates funding for Toronto honor camp
TOPEKA (AP)—Gov. Robert F. Bennett deleted by letter veto went more than $1 million in an appropriations bill which was approved as a successful financial honor camp near Toronto Reservoir.
Bennett said yesterday that he removed the funding because the expenditure was too large.
FUNDING FOR an additional honor camp received support in the Legislature during the regular 1978 session, but location of the camp near Toronto generated controversy.
"The need for an additional honor camp is agreed to," he said, but the location remains unknown.
Bennett she agreed with those who opposed the Toronto location because there was already one honor camp at the reservoir and no need for another at that location.
AT THE FOOT OF THE MOUNTAIN

another camp is already located and where there is no need for additional inmate labor and little opportunity to place that labor in usable work details, is unjustified.
"THE VALUE OF the honor camp to the corrections system is that it affords an opportunity for non-instrumental placement of inmates in detention facilities of assistance to their rehabilitation period.
"The value of the honor camp to the state as a whole is that it allows those who have committed a crime to serve their sentence productively and in a small part repay to the taxpayers of the state the costs that have been incurred in their incarceration."

Bennett said there still was time during the final three-day veto session next week to approve funding for an honor camp at a different location.
