Senior Class Slate Reduced to 2 Parties
By MARLENE SELLBERG Konson Staff Writer
The field of candidates for senior class president has narrowed from three to two. Larry Hampion, Tampa, Kan., junior, played a star role every night because he had severe tonsillitis.
"I wouldn't be able to launch an effective
Dave Murfin
campaign, so I've decided to forget it." Hampton said Tuesday night.
Pat Nutstron, Sailna junior, and Dave Wichta, Wichita junior, still are very much in the middle.
"There is a lot a senior president can do. He is in the best position to influence people," Neumust, presidential candidate of the Uncoalition party, said Monday.
NEUSTROM SAID that KU was heading in a new direction because of a new chancellor, the recent Pearson Humanities issue, the construction of Wescow Hall, the new health center and the recent hiring of Gale Saves, assistant athletic director.
"The question to ask," Neustrom said, "is 'Where is KU going?' As a senior class we have a good perspective on this and I want to mold the direction KU is going to take."
Murfin, presidential candidate of the Seniors Organized for Service (SOS), said, "I've always wanted to do something for the University. I've worked on boards and committed for three years preparing our team. I feel I can serve best as a class officer."
MURFIN SAID he wanted to provide the seniors with as many services as possible and to unite the class as a vital part of KU.
Neustrom said the class president should be a director, motivator and coordinator. The job is all-encompassing, he said, and an individual can make it as much as he wants
Neustrom said that if elected, he wanted to organize a committee to enlarge the intern program started last year by the Concerned Students for Higher Education in New York. He said the senate funding and hire a person to solicit alumni support for the program.
This program currently offers students
cance to work with businesses to train for
work in the field.
Neumston said that he would also like to enlarge the "Who's at KU" program by having it under the direction of the senior class and a special committee.
CONTINUING CONCERTS and having more quality discounts on the class cards are two goals Neustrom and his coalition have set.
"I don't see the HOAP award as an issue. Since it costs $500-$800 to fund the award, it is not fair for nonpaying class members to receive a paycheck. I can't elect for voters who don't own a class card."
Neustrum that he would like to see a booklet published by the senior class be distributed before Christmas and spring semester. You must contain University information for parents.

THE BOOKLET would contain information on research programs, university activities and news about institutions, faculty and administrations, he said.
Murfin said he would like to initiate a job guidance committee that would represent the senior class within and outside KU. The committee should provide as many services as possible.
Murfin said he would like to see the class card discount program reprovided to weed
"I'd like to make the merchant give more before he could be represented on the cash register."
Murfin said he would start a bulletin committee and a travel committee. The travel committee would work to plan more trips with greater reduced rates for seniors.
The bulletin committee would publish a monthly newsletter containing news about any activity related to seniors, a social schedule and a schedule of career careers.

interviews. Both committees would be funded by class card revenue, he said.
PAUL, RANKIN, Lawrence junior and member of the Uncoalition, said he would help coordinate ideas as a catalyst and impetus if elected vice president.
Rankin said, "I'm running for vice president because a lot can be done within a senior class to promote the University and interest in higher education."
Rankin said that the senior class should attract freshmen and keep the high schools informed of KU activities through the Alumni Association.
Tom Busch, Leawood junior and vice presidential candidate for the SOS ticket, said. "I'm running as an individual to ex-tenants' opportunities available to the senior class."
Busch said that the job of vice president was the least defined of all of the offices so it would allow him room to make that office what he wanted. He said he would function as an energizer and an administrator for the committees.
The Occupational Survey Guide should be expanded to include more seniors, Busch nurses, and they should also contain qualifications of the test administered to sent to all interviewers prior to their
BUSCH SAID HE FAVORED a poll tax for seniors not owning a class card but still desiring to vote for the HOFE award. He earned it in 2014, and cost between card cards and nonvowers.
campus visits.
"Class organization has the potential to offer the greatest degree of efficiency in productivity and getting students involved." Busch said.
Debbie McAdams, Kirwood, Mee, junior and a member of the Uncoalition, said, "I think I was the best player."

senior class because every senior class is apathetic and I'd like to change this.
McADAMS SAID she would like to see more concerts and speakers, such as a former POW and a woman politician. She said she favors community projects to bridge the gap between Lawrence and the campus.
McAdams also supports the minor privilege fee for men who wanna women who have had a broken arm. HOPE AWARE!
Pete Kanatzer, Toperka junior and candidate for treasurer on the SOS ticket, said, "I'm running for office because I believe I live in a community that has class and correct some of the problems."
Info on Careers In Government Offered Today
Students interested in working for government agencies will have a chance to learn all about getting government jobs; the second annual Government Careers Day is today in the Big Eight Room of the Kansas Union.
At Careers Day, which is sponsored annually by the University of Kansas Division of Continuing Education, students will be able to meet with representatives of such organizations as the U.S. Treasury mission, the U.S. Treasury Department, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Veterans' Administration, the U.S. Social Security Administration, the Small Business Administration, the U.S. Federal Corps of Engineers, and the U.S. Navy.
Representatives of these agencies will be available to students from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., excluding an hour's break at noon for lunch. They will be here to inform students about the requirements of their careers and fitness. Last year, about 400 students participated in the Government Careers Day.
Candidates Surveyed On Ecology, Milieu
A survey of the winning candidates in Tuesday's primary will be taken by Zero Population Growth (ZPG) to determine the attitudes on the environment and ecology.
Pennie Vononchen, Eudora graduate student and vice-president of ZPG, said last week that environmental problems were closely related to the population growth in Michigan. The state has decreased in recent months, she said, the group is placing more emphasis on ecology.
The candidates will be polled on their attitudes on Clinton Reservoir, pollution control and other issues.
Problems that Kanatzar mentioned were a gap between officers and class members, apathy and a lack of funds. He said the main tasks of the treasurer were getting money and providing leadership to keep the projects going.
I think I'm a promoter, "Kanazer said.
I want to get people to help out.

She said she would like to have more senior parties with a different twist, such as a pig roast, a dance marathon, a winter ballet at Mt Bleu, and a trip to Padre Island, Tex.
MARY LOPTUS, Kansas City, Mo., junior and SOS candidate, said, "I'm running because there has been so many critical criticisms of the choice of concerts. I want to improve this."

Grafton said the senior regalia could be improved by organizing the committee in the spring and giving them more time to find better discounts on the shirts and mugs.

A University of Kansas student was hospitalized Tuesday with scalp lacerations after being struck by an automobile on a bridge over the Mississippi River, according to KU Traffic and Security.
Lofus said she strongly believed that all seniors should vote for the HOPE award. She said that a poll tax would have to be assessed to those not owning a class card.
As a candidate for secretary, Suzi Grafton, Moline, III., junior and Uncoalition member, said the secretary should be a role to keep things moving and developing.

She said that the senior class should hire a librarian and make some effort in Topeka to promote higher education. She also favors a relationship with the Alumni Association.
