Kennedy claims two-state victory
NEW YORK (AP) - Sen. Edward M. Kennedy upbeat President Carter in his 2016 re-election night, revitalizing his challenge for the White House and silencing the Democrats
New York gave Kennedy more than a victory. It gave him a surprise landscape.
Former U. Ambassador George Bush won the Republican primary in Connecticut, gaining a comeback of his own. But Reagan supporters won the majority of New York GOP delegates, so swell his already commanding lead in nationwide nominating
Bush, in Milwaukee, said the connecticut victory bodies well for him in Wisconsin next Tuesday.
"It looks to me like I was getting my point across," he said. "If it made a difference there it will make a difference here."
Reagan, in Longview, Tex., said he never thought he'd win Connecticut, "it being George's territory." Bush won by five percentage points.
John B. Commly, who recently withdrew from the Republican presidential race, had thrown his support away to Ronald Kruger in him "the second-best man I can think of."
The Kennedy camp, accustomed to
to almost weekly defeats, finally had
something to celebrate. Kennedy's six
wins lead to Connecticut and its
16-hole team lead in New York.
Kennedy said the New York and Connecticut voters 'were sending a very clear and powerful message . . . that they can no longer resist 18 percent of their votes that made them
... I think we're going to see that "repeated in states all across this country," he said. "I think we're well on the road." he added. The former Carter in nominating delegate strength.
Kennedy said he now would resume the campaign 'renewed by the expressions of support and confidence' and said he hoped that his plan would be the normation at the national convention.
"The bubble's burd for Jim Carter," said Tom Southwick, Kennedy's spokesman. He said Kennedy's victories would be an enormous boost for fund-raising.
Reagan said New York "certainly is going to quiet those people who are telling Kennedy he ought to set out of the race."
He said the defeats were due at least in part to Carter's decision to balance the budget and to the controversy over the administration's U.N. vote critical of Israel.
At the White House, Press Secretary Jody Powell said last night's losses would not lead Carter to begin campaigning actively. The House is confident she faced a difficult struggle to overcater Jackie.
Robert Strauss, Carter's campaign manager also blamed the president's failure to meet a deadline for anti-Israel resolution at the United Nations—later termed an mistake—and on his own actions.
Powell said Kennedy would have to win 63 percent of all the Democratic delegates still to be chosen to catch Carter.
"It hurt, it hurt," Strauss said of the U.N. vote. But he told followers in New York, "I don't count this as a loss but as a dip along the road."
Even in double defeat, Carter was gaining delegate strength, and in that column, he carries a nationwide lead Kennedy will find difficult to overcome.
With 99 percent of the precincts counted in New York's delegate-rich Democratic primary, the results read:
Kennedy 573,713, or 59 percent, for 163 delegates.
BEN BIGLER/Kansan staff
Carter 399,441, or 41 percent, for 119 delegates.
This was the picture in Connecticut, with all the votes counted.
Kennedy 98,571 votes, or 47 percent, for 29 national vote delegates
Carter 87,108 votes, or 41 percent, for 25 deleates.
California Gov. Edmund G. Brown Jr had 3 percent, as did minor candidate Lyndon LaRouche. Six percent of the ballots were uncommitted.
Bush 70,070, or 39 percent, for 15 deleates.
Reagan 61,333, or 34 percent, for 14 deleates.
Rep. John B. Anderson of Illinois 40,481, or 22 percent. for 6 delicates.
Rep. Philip M. Crane d Illinois received 1 percent; the balance went to a minor candidate and three entries who already participated in the campaign. Two percent were unaccounted.
In New York, where Republican candidates were not on the ballot, Reagan supporters won easily. They had 73 wins. Bush only 6, with 38 uncommitted.
With his New York and Connecticut delegates, Reagan had a total of 327 of the 998 it will take to win the Republican nomination. Bush had 69. Anderson 45.
Neither New York nor Connecticut permit crossover voting by independents and Democratse, whose ballots had boycotted Anderson in three earlier primaries.
Carter appeared likely to emerge from the two primaries with a national total of 746 delegates, Kennedy with 384. It will take 1,666 to win the Democratic nomination.

Hearing delayed by BSU conflict
Lobbying for the Black Student Union budget by the Student Senate and other departments by the committee at Student Senate budget budget.
Tanya Ivy, Student Services chairman and BSU vice president, fought the committee for funding for printing expenses.
After nearly an hour, the BSU budget proposal, presented to the committee Monday night, cut by 1.137 to $493.82.
Ivory argued that a cut of $841 from films would cripple BSU's attempt to provide services for students.
"We're talking about culture, not fun." she said.
But Kevin Mebut, a committee member, said the group could raise enough revenue by charging admission to the rams rather than selling tickets.
ERIC HARNESS, a committee member, said, "I think $250 would give the group enough money to obtain high quality materials."

"It will allow them to obtain adequate projectors and projector operators as well as the film itself. It gives them a one-shot chance. If they charge a $1 to $1.50 fee, it can generate enough to run other films."
Groups requesting funds were Women's Coalition, $825; Commission on the Status of Women, $481.91; Consumer Affairs, $12.38; MECHA, $1,068.75; Sierra Club, $855; Campus Safety Servery, $1,087; KUYU, $2,121.07; and Immorvative Internationally, $251.36.
The KU Tae Twean Do Club may not receive funds if the Sports Committee's preliminary recommendations from last night's basketball game are approved.
Nine other organizations presented budget proposals last night to the committee, emphasizing expansion and advertising
The committee was reluctant to fund the Tae Kwon Do club because members said Choon Lee, the instructor, appeared to be in a bad mood.
"The committee members are reluctant to fund the club because it is advertising to increase the man's business," Evans, commends.
THE TAE KWON DO Club want $180 of its $750 budget for advertising in the University Daily Kansas.
See BUDGET page 11
Also in question was $200 the club requested for the purchase of protective equipment. Committee member Mark Holloway said the club seemed to want the money to fund equipment for the KU branch of Lee's school.

Campaigns aided by Action 80 members

Members of Action 80, a private organization developing plans to assist companies for more than 10 percent of the contributions to the campaigns of four city commissioners, accr
Ten Action 80 members contributed to the election campaigns of Mayor Barkley Clark and City Council member Robert Carter and Don Binns. Commissioner Marc Francisco did not receive contributions
Francisco, Binns and Schumm were
elected in 1979, and Carter and Clark were elected in 1977.
The largest individual contributions by Action 80 members were $100.
But Clark said he did not expect the contributions to affect the commission's vote on the downtown mail proposal.
"I really don't think we operate that way," he said. "I have no idea how much any member of Action 80 contributed my efforts and I don't really care who contributed."
However, Francisco, who is often hesitant to approve development in the city, said she thought the commissioners' tie to Action 80.
Schumm said that despite the $230 he received from Action 80 members, he opposed an enclosed mall anywhere in Lawrence.

"There will be some tension," she said.
"It's hard to take money from people without feeling somewhat in debt.
Carter received almost $500, Clark received $270, and Bins received $120
Clark said he thought the Action 80 contributions were large because the members were wealthy and politically active.
KU profs lobby for merit benefits
By GRANT OVERSTAKE

THREE KU professors, lobbying for higher merit salary increases for Renssons school's faculty members, were in Topeka yesterday after a group of students sent messages to members of the KU宿舍 House.
Evelyn Swartz, a member of the University Senate executive committee; held a series of public meetings on chapter of the American Association of University Professors; and William Scott, president-elect of the Kansas State Conference, gave an afternoon meeting minutes with Speaker of the House Wendell Lady, R-Overland Park, and House Ways and Means Committee chairman Mike
In addition to faculty salaries, the group, made a pitch for KU operating expenses—particularly for Watson Library. The professors called the meeting "productive."
THE KANSAS Senate has approved a 10
"We presented a general notion that it is impossible without better salary increases to keep professors in the job, properly and still keep young professors," Scott said yesterday. "It matters a lot of points. They didn't promise anything, but they said they would keep the ideas in mind going into the conference."
"We came out with the hope that the final salary appropriation will be at least 9% percent," Strinvasan said.
SWART2 CALLED the current faculty salary situation "very serious."
Every percentage point is important with merit salary appropriations because each point represents 1.5 million dollars to the school's salary budget, Strinivasan said.
percent merit salary increase for Regents schools' faculty next year. The House has approved an 8 percent pay increase. When the conference committee meets in early April, the proposals will be combined. After the proposal, Hayden are likely to be on that committee.
A stipulation in the Senate's salary recommendation says that two percent of the budget for the faculty members who have made significant teaching contributions, or ten percent of the faculty members who have made significant teaching contributions, or ten percent of the faculty members who have made significant teaching contributions.
"This presents a problem both in terms of mechanics and the fact that unclassified staff will not be eligible for the two percent increase that teachers can receive for teaching will be amended," he said.
"I know a lot of junior faculty members who have grown families who are experiencing financial problems," she said. "Most of them love university teaching and learning."
would not want to change, but I don't know what's going to happen if economic conditions are not better for them, and, indeed, for all faculty members."37
"It sounds like a threat and don't it want to sound like it," he said, "but I have talked with faculty members who are extremely worried that their university has gone down in the past few years.
"Many faculty members have large classes. Many also teach on-campus as a service to the University. They're really knocking themselves out. If they aren't adequately paid they will be unhappy. I don't think they're having much when they are giving more and more to help to help the University through an uncertain period if their real income goes down."
SCOTT, professor of English, will become president of the Kansas State Conference of the AUAP next year. He said Regent's College would be unified on the issue of further salaries.
Srinivasan was on lobbying on behalf of the AAUP during the past three Legislative sessions, but he said that traveling to the United States is not enough to secure higher faculty salaries.
"This has to be a year-round operation and not just at the time of the Legislative session," he said.
