The University of Kansas Student Senate kicked off a week of budget hearings last night, with a recommendation being made by KJH. A student-run FM radio station.
The Senate Communications Committee voted unanimously to recommend the Senate approve the station's request for a new transmitter, which includes $18,300 for a new transmitter.
Several committee members said they thought KJHK could not now serve the University community with its 10 watt transmitter.
"Students are paying for KJHK now, not all students will benefit from the station unless it gets a bigger transmitter," Steve Corrado, Dorado, senior, said after the meeting.
JKHK's present equipment can be heard well at all times only within one mile of the station's transmitting antenna behind Marvin Hall, Ernest Martin, assistant professor of speech and drama, said. Martin is JKHK's general manager.
With a 1,000吨 transmitter the station is effective range of about eight miles, Martin says.

A less powerful transmitter would cost almost as much and would not increase KJHK's range a great deal, Pat Montromtow, student engineer, said.
The station serves the KU community by airing promotional announcements by KU groups free and playing jazz and blues. The station's music, Joanne Brand, station manager, said.
of KJHK's budget request, $9,135 has already been set aside by the Senate Revenue Code. The Code states that 25 cents should be added to the fee you go to KJHK, and this amounts to $9,135.
THE $18,320 FOR A NEW transmitter would have to come from the Senate's unilateral effort through money it unilateral effort to pay for the money, although it's difficult to say exactly how much the fund contains because the figure changes often. Phil Cobb, senate treasurer,
The Finance and Auditing Committee began its preliminary hearings for the Senate's internal budget for the fiscal year 1979.
The proposed budget, funded up by Phil Cobb, Senate treasurer, calls for expenditures totalling $34,760, a slight increase over last year's budget of $33,361.
Included in the proposed budget are pay increases for the Senate office. Cobb proposed that salaries for student bodies would increase from $100 a month to $500 a month. The vice-president's salary would also be doubled from $100 a month to $200 a month.
THE EXECUTIVE SECRETARY'S salary would be raised from $100 a month to $170 a month. And the treasurer's salary would be raised from $150 a month to $175 a month.
Rabin lecture draws protests from students
A number of KU students are planning two demonstrations Thursday to protest the scheduled visit of former Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin to the University of Tel Aviv.
Mohamed Gebril, president of the Organization of Arab Students, said that members of his club and the Iranian Student Association will march down Jayhawk Boulevard at noon and gather in front of Hoch Auditorium that night.
Rabin will deliver the 1978 J. A. Vickers Memorial Lecture in the Auditorium at 8
The University Events Committee approved plans for the demonstration last week, stipulating that classes must not be disturbed in the daytime march.
In addition to this proposal, Finance and Auditing will consider tomorrow a bill submitted by Steve Leben, former student body president, that also proposes pay increases for State officers, but according to Senate estimates would be effective May 1 instead of July 1.
Also in the budget proposal is money that would fund salaries for research assistants hired by the Senate to research issues dealt with by the Senate.
He said that Rabin was personally responsible for the occupation of Arab countries that exists today. He also said Rabin had negated United Nations resolutions calling for Israel to withdraw from Arab territory in recognition of the rights of the Palestinians.
Mike Harper, student body president, said that such help was necessary because Senate issues were becoming more and more research oriented.
MIKE HILL, chief of KU police said the demonstration plans had not affected the community.
He said that issues needing research included legal issues in transportation and land development.
The students will carry signs, distribute leaflets and chant slogans during the day, according to Shawkat Hammoude of the Organization of Arab students.
THE ACADEMIC AFFAIRS COMMITTEE耳展 presentations from seven groups requesting funds. The groups include American Museum of Natural History and the students' Association.
According to the proposal, the increases would be effective beginning July 1.
The committee decided that it would not hear requests for funds from the University Association of Women Engineers and the Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

Milton Katz
Harvard law prof says money talks in politics

The truth to the old cliche "money talks" is never more evident than it is in politics, according to Milton Katz, Harvard University law professor.

Katz, who spoke at a noon forum at the University of Kansas School of Law yesterday, will present the Phi Beta Kappa Lecture on "Liberal Education in Modern Industrial America" at 7:30 p.m. at the Kansas Room of the Kansas Union.
Katz told students and faculty at the forum that money was a necessity in politics to effectively reach the American public.
"You can't say a word to your fellow Americans without spending money," he said.
The problems created by expenses are further complicated by the number of voters a candidate tries to reach with his campaign, Katz said.
Katz said that an organization called the Citizens' Research Foundation recently calculated the amount of money spent on federal elections and discovered that the 1972 presidential campaign cost the American public $400 million.
Katz said the problem in presidential elections was not to reduce expenditures but to make them more useful and fairly distributive.
Another problem in politics, Katz said, was the built-in advantage a wealthy candidate had over another candidate without the same financial means, especially in cases where the media were concerned.
"The process of trying to get into political life is expensive," he said.
"All people know about a candidate is what they hear or see through the media," he said. "In this sense, access to the media is crucial."

HOLLYWOOD - Comedian Wood Allen won best director and best picture Oscars for "Annie Hall," and his leading lady, Mia Farrow. He also co-founded annual Academy Awards Monday night.

Men" was颁发的 last year.
But it was Vannessa Redgrave, who won the Oscar for best supporting actress for "Julia," who created the biggest stirl inside and outside the Music Center for expressing her politics before, during and after the ceremonies.
The ceremonies were picked by the Palestine Liberation Organization, the American Nazi Party and the Jewish National Council against accusing Miss Redrave of anti-seismic accusations.
In accepting her award, Miss Redgrave said:
You have refused to be intimidated by a small bunch of Zionist hoodlums and I salute you. I will continue to fight against anti-Semitism and fascism."
She was referring to protests against her making of the documentary film, "The Girl on the Train."
Her remarks drew a rebuttal from writer Paddy Chavelsky, who said:
"I am sick and tired of people exploiting the occasion of the Academy Awards for promotion, but I do not propaganda. I would like to suggest to Miss Redgrave that her winning is not a great moment in history, a proclamation was a simple 'thank you' would have suffered.
"Star Wars" won the most Oscars of the night, six, but none were considered major awards. "Annie Hill" was second with four, followed by "Julia" with three.
Allen, who plays jazz clarinet with a band in a Manhattan night club, did not appear at the show because he said he could not "let them (the band) down. They count on me."
Original Screenplay—Woody Allen and Marshall Brickman for "Annie Hall."
Screenplay from Another Medium—Alvin Sargent for "Julia."
