Tuition Rise . . .
Izabel Iskhanian, Lattika, Syria,
sophomore, she said might not return to KU
(Continued from page 1)
"I will probably go to a cheaper school," she said. "If I remained at KU I would have to work more hours than I do now and that would seriously affect my studies."
PETER LEWIS Des Moines, junior,
said he had considered transferring to a
school in Iowa before he heard about the
increase in tuition.
"I wasn't sure I would return to KU next year anyway, but it would increase my chances of going to go to college my own state where it would be cheaper." One student said he would try to qualify as a freshman.
One student said he would try to quarry as a Kansas resident.
Robert Friedland, Newton, N.J. junior,
he could not handle the increase unless he
got it.
"I have not been forced to go somewhere
he said," he said. "But next year my parents
will be with me."
Moriarty said she thought the increase would discourage many nonresidents from coming to London.
"IN THE PAST, the tuition increases have not affected the resident and nonresident mix of students," Kelly said. "Other schools in the country also are going to have to raise their fees to make ends meet."
Dave Glanx, Kirkwood, Mo., junior, said that although he did not want to pay more tuition, he did not think the increase was worth considering the financial status of KU.
"The increase will make my budget much tighter, but I think a nonresident should be given the same priority."
This is how the $1,235 annual out-of-state tuition at KU compares with other universities' annual tuition across the country:
University of Arizona—$1,240
UCLA A ¥2,196
University of Colorado $-1,620
University of Minnesota $-1,437
University of Nebraska $-1,261
Kansas State University $-1,066
Ohio State University $-1,770
Texas A&M $-1,345
Area Group Protests Sale of Head Lettuce
The Lawrence Friends of the Farm Workers, a group consisting mainly of University of Kansas students, has picketed the Safeway store in the Mall Shopping Center for the past five中午 mornings and is booking boycott of Safeway and A&P food stores.
SUA Selects 1973-74 Board
The boycott was called by the United Farm Workers (UFW), led by Deser Cairn.
Eight KU students were selected Student Union Activities Board next year.
The board members and their positions are: Bill Brown, Riverside, III., senior; travel; Barb Krase, Overland Park sophomore, forums; Carolina Langer, sophomore, forums; Robert Lindeman, Salina sophomore; recreation; Jim Milio, Hinsdale, III., freshman, films; Curts Reinhardt, Centralia junior, Festival of the Arts director; Jes Santaura, Junior, special events; and Kathy Tussing, Des Moines, Iowa, junior, public relations.
The board members were selected by retiring board members and the new SUA
Karen Hauenstein, Overland Park senior and local organizer of the boycott, said the purpose of the boycott was to force Safety and A&P, the two largest food chains in the country, to buy lettuce picked under UFW contracts.
More growers would then sign contracts with the UFW, she said, enabling the union to negotiate for higher wages, more fringe benefits and better working conditions for its members.
"Only a small percentage of the lettuce on the market is picked under UFW contracts," Haunstein said. "We are boycotting Safety and A&P but we urge them to be careful (head) lettuce at any store. Instead they should switch to some other type of lettuce.
"Many stores advertise their lettuce as being union-picked, but this does not mean that they are actually union-picked."
She explained that the Teamsters Union also offered a union for the farm workers. She said she would work at the lettuce worker with job security, a senority system, grievance procedures or protection from pesticides, all of which are provided for in UFW contracts, Hauesten垦
Haustein said the group would continue to picket the Safeway store on Saturday at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
The manager of the store, Charles Dallas,
had no comment.
The boycott is also supported by the Mexican-American Students of KU, the Iranian Students Association, the National Farmers Association of Douglas County, local Carpenters Union 2279 and Plumbers and Steamfitters Local 763.
SUA Offers Cheap Buses
University of Kansas students who will be leaving Lawrence during spring break now need to get a JOB before then.
"We came up with the idea to lower travel costs for students leaving breaks and backpacks."
According to Tom Powell, Kansas City, Kan., senior and chairman of the Student Senate Transportation Committee, a charter service has been set up with the Kansas City, Kan., to facilitate travel to Kansas City and Kansas City International Airport (KCI).
Powell said that arrangements for the service were finalized with Duane Ogle, owner and manager of the Lawrence Bus Co., last week.
Students must take a bus from Lawrence to the Kansas City, Mo., bus station and then transfer to another bus for a bus trip to KCI, Powell said. The total cost is $2.25.
Powell said the charter service would charge a flat rate of $75 for the trip to KCI. The charter rate would cut the cost per bus to $2.50 if 30 students reserved the bus.
The service was not set up strictly for travel during breaks, Powell said, and could be used by any University group for any trip during the year.
"It can be used by teachers for field trips," he said, "or by students for parties,
4 Candidates Reject Survey, Substitute Talk
As an alternative to answering a questionnaire sent out by the Kansan last week, four Student Senate candidates from the House of Representatives designed said they would be available for questioning at the Architecture Student Union in Marvin Hall, tomorrow, today in the jury room of Marvin Hall.
the candidates, Ward Simpson, Wichita senior; Stephen Poupirt, Albuquerque junior; John M. McDowell, Junior; and Chuck Fischer, Candenton, Mo., freshman; indicated that they considered the questionnaire vague and that answers to the questions might be midleading.

Ashcroft, Mo., sophomore, who returned a
first round in the tournament.
The service is strictly charter and a flat rate, based on the distance of the trip and any waiting time involved, will be charged, including the cost of bus travel to be made by calling the Lawrence Bus Co.
