Law students' fee may be eliminated
The future of the tuition difference between the School of Law and the rest of the University is still in doubt. Ralph E. Hall, a law professor at the University for academic affairs, said yesterday.
After discussions with other administrators this week, Christoffersen said there was agreement in the ad-hoc plan to ensure the tuition difference should be eliminated.
"But if the fee is eliminated, we must be prepared to ask the Legislature to make up the funding difference," Christofersen said.
The tuition difference is an extra $50 that was added to law school tuition in the mid-1960s to finance an increase in faculty salaries.
The extra fee was challenged this year by law students who said the extra money was not being used for faculty or any other expenses of the School of Law.
Earlier this semester, Christoffersen said the $5 difference went into the University's general fund and that he favored the elimination of the difference.
"People understand that there is no connection between the tuition differential and faculty salaries," Christoffersen said.
Winter climate often deadly for stray pets

To the poet, April may have been the cruelest month, but to animals lost in the freezing cold, winter can be deadly.
Very often, the "loot" pet is one that has taken off from home because of boredom, neglect or a desire to play with other animals, according to owners of lost pets.
If they go too far, they may never get back.
"It it's the wrong time of the year to get a beach vacation," Kansas City, Kan., adamorehonne often been a refuge for lost animals. "You can't pick up a scent that well on snow and ice."
FOR MANY animals that have strained too far, the streets can be terrifying. I roads and dark nights can mean certain nighttime tryouts to cross a road and find its way home.
Some animals that are injured are taken to local veterinairns by people who have found them.

the preservation of life and to reduce suffering for the animal," Lewis said. But whoever brings in the animal must decide, whether he will be responsible for the animal.
OWNERLESS ANIMALS, whether injured or dead, must be held over to the Humane Society. 1858 E. 19th St.
Some lost animals are lucky to be taken in and cared for by people like Bryant, who has kept a pet until the weather's gotten better and then let it go where she found it.
Others are picked up by people who take them to their home in order for the owner to know if there is a way to tell who the owners is. Sometimes they hand the animal over to the local dog owner.
"Generally, the policy is to render aid for
Unless the dog has identification or the owners come to look for it, the Humane Society is limited in what it can do. Unless the dog's owner wants it, it may have to be killed, or "painful to sleep."
ACCORDING To Carl Gumm, managers and investigator for the Humane Society, this could happen as soon as 72 hours after the animal has been brought to the noun.
"If the animal has a tag or has been picked up before, we call the owner to inform him that we have his dog," Gumm said.

"After signing the papers for release the owner must pay a fine—$10 if this is the first time the dog has been brought to the pound," Gumm said.
If no owner can be found, the tate or the animal is dictated by space limitations, its health and the length of time Gumm has had to keep it.
"I make the decision after the first 72 hours," Gumm said. "I am a dog trainer who helped for adoption it could move to the pen sided aside for adoptive pets. I know there are animals that are full, there isn't much we can do."
FOR THOSE who are lucky enough to get their pet back, the time it is gone is agonizing.
For others, the agony continues until they have given up all hope of ever seeing their pet again.
Rosalee Nune, 1917 Oxford Road, lost her Old English sheepdog about a month ago.
"You find out how much you really miss him," she said. "I can't believe he would affect me like this—I am heartbroken."
Nunez had lost him before but he was returned a week later.
"He's part of the family and it's hard to think that we'll never find him."
"I'm sure he was taken," she said. "The fence was locked with wire and he wouldn't jump the fence.
Another owner, whose cat has been gone four weeks, is still optimistic his cat will return.
ONE GIRL, who found a stray dog near her garbage looking for food, found that the owner didn't want it back and denied the dog was his.
"If anyone has 'Bruce the Screamer' they'll return her after a few days," he said. "She's a little eccentric."
Unless someone takes the dog off her hands, the Humane Society is the only answer.
Although she has kept the "terribly skinny" animal and put flesh on its bones, she now must get rid of it.
But Karin Wickenden, Fort Collins, Colo.
graduate student, said that thought, didn't
even cross her mind when she decided to continue caring for a cat she had found.
Her ad in the local newspaper brought a response from its owners who have moved away a month ago. They should be reuilted with their pet any day now.
Wickenden said she would never have turned the cat in to the Humane Society.
