StudEx Boosts Funds For 'Workforce '75'
The Student Senate Executive Committee (StudEx) Sunday approved increased funding for Workforce 75, a service that its proponents hope will grow to be a university-wide job placement program for graduating seniors.
StudEx transferred $2,800 from the committee program fund to expand the pilot program sponsored last year by the Board of Class Officers. A computer will be used to monitor staff and units of participating nurses with job openings in Kansas, Missouri and Illinois.
The program will be administered by the Student Services Committee of the senate.

Board member Thomas Weiss, associate professor of economics, who has accused Walker of overspending on nonrevenue sports, such as tennis, baseball and track.
The Athetic Association has accumulated a deficit of $257,000 from fiscal 1971, '72 and '73. This year, however, preliminary figures indicate that the Athletic Association will show a profit of about $10,000, according to the Athetic Association business manager.
Messer said last week that the small projected profit was significant because 60 per cent of the major college athletic facilities in the United States would be in the red this year.
Asked whether he thought the dramatic increase in student ticket prices would significantly reduce ticket sales, Messer replied, "Not really."
However, in a Kansas interview last January, long before the Student Senate cut the Athletic Association's activity fee allocation, Walker was reported to say that an increase in ticket prices probably would be counterproductive.
Student Body President John Beisner reported that a compromise had been reached on student season football and basketball ticket prices for next year. A combined season ticket for both will cost $25.
He also asked for help in forming a task force to study the problems of graduate student participation in university government and higher education, and graduate students and two undergraduates.
StudEx approved about 20 summer projects proposed by its members. Included are the formation of a student advisory board to the intramural program, a survey of academic requirements at other universities, a review of the university judiciary, a review of the senate's activity fee allocation procedures and a campus bus promotion campaign.
Bus bursiders was up during the spring semester, according to Beisner. Total riders were up $19 per cent from the previous year, and the number of 1,000 bus passes were sold last semester.
Official Says SLA Draws 'Crackpot' Letters
A key official in the FIH investigation of the Patti Hearst case said yesterday that "crackpacks and mental cases" were sending letters and other communications signed by the Symbionese Liberation Army that vowed to kill the pigs and in one instance alleged that Patricia Hearst was dead.
"All the crackpots and mental cases between Canada and Mexico who can hold a pen are drawing seven-headed cobras (the SLA symbol) and writing 'kill the pigs' and 'death to the Fascist insect,' said the FBI official, who would speak frankly only if his name were withheld.
