Arabs to Discuss Disengagement Today
Arab nations will hold a summit in Algeria to discuss disengagement of the Syrian and Israeli armies, the Algerian Embassy in Paris and official meetings with representatives from other countries.
The meeting comes in a week of important oil developments—more nationalization of American companies in Libya, and an Arab oil meeting Thursday to discuss the petroleum embargo imposed on the United States.
The official Algerian news agency said the participants in the Algiers disengagement talks would be Syria, Egypt, Algeria and Saudi Arabia.
The kidnapers of heiress Patricia Hearst demanded millions of dollars worth of free food yesterday for California's needy as the first step in negotiating the girl's freedom. They threatened to kill the coed if her family didn't comply.
Hearst Kidnapers Demand Food for Needy
The demand was accompanied by an 11-minute tape recorded message from Miss Hearst, who urged her parents to meet the kidnappers' conditions quickly. Her father, newspaper magnate Randolph A. Hearst, said he would do his best.
The Symbionese Liberation Army, which claims responsibility for the kidnapping on Feb. 4, said it "arrested" Hearst for "crimes her mother and father have committed against the American people and the people of the world."
$24 Million Already in Campaign Coffers
About a year before the next general election, candidates for federal offices and supporting committees had more than $84 million in hand to pay for them.
Some of the money reported on hand at the close of 1972 represents leftover business from 1972 elections, but most of it is in pools looking forward to potential election.
The figures released yesterday by the Center for Public Financing of Elections were compiled from a study of official candidate reports required by federal law. This is the first year the new reporting requirements have been in force well in advance of a major election year.

"He (the agent) sold some hash to my friend and my friend sold him some THC back," Rickman said.
Bellows said, "The guy looked like a junkie."
The agent had smoked with them before, Mitch Long, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, said.
"He did lots of things policemen don't do," he said.
Some of the police officers were making pokes about the drug arrests, Kathy said.
"I got very special treatment," she said,
"I was the only one I saw that wasn't hurt."
Rickman complained that one of the *narcotics agents*' had 'the gall to call me if I
"I hadn't even been booked yet," he said. The agent said he had turned the students in for their own good and in the end they would thank him for it, Rickman said.

Legislators Minimize Impact of Raid
It's too early to tell what effect yesterday's drug raid will have on Kansas legislators' attitudes toward the proposed Chancellor Bill Rochester and Chancellor Archie R. Dykes said yesterday.
However, the general attitude of the estimated 80 legislators who attended last night's Association of University Residence Hall (AUR) legislators' dinner was that Atty. Gen, Vern Miller's raid wouldn't have any effect on the proposed budget.
Rep. Wendell Lady, R-Overland Park, said some legislators might use the drug raid as an excuse to cut the University's proposed budget. He said, however, that the university's objective enough to realize that theraid involved only a small number of students.
Lady is a member of the Ways and Means Committee, which is now hearing KU's request.
Lady said he hadn't heard any comments from other legislators about the drug raid. He reiterated his support for the Board of Education in the 10 per cent increase in faculty salaries.
Rep. Paul Feleciano, D-Wichita, said legislative attitude had changed since the early 78 when a "wait and see" attitude made legislators hesitant to appropriate measures. When he said, the attitude is one of support and response to the students and the administrators here.
Rep. Mike Glover, D-Lawrence, said he thought legislators were more intelligent than to cut the budget request because of a drug raid that involved KU students.
Rep. John Vogel, R-Lawrence, said theraid wouldn't affect legislative attitudeas much as Miller's 171rd on Lawrence.He said the legislators realized they couldn'tpenalize a whole institution for the actionsof a few.

Glover, however, said the 1971 legislature cut the university's budget because the state wanted to ensure it not because of bad publicity about KU. The state's economy is healthier now, he said, and as a result the 10 per cent increases for expenses have a good chance for approval.

Mert Buckley, Wichita senior and student body president, addressed those present at the event.
"They're not getting enough money for teaching students. They have to do research in the field."
Vogel said the 1971 raid had a deterrent effect on legislators because it was one of the few cases in which he
Buckley said he knew legislators questioned whether KU professors and instructors spent too much time doing
Buckley told the legislators that the 1.5 per cent difference between the regents' council and the governor's proposed increase would not result in an amount to that much of a difference among them.
"It's a morale booster to get the faculty this 10 per cent, not so much dollars and cents." Buckley said.

Buckley urged the students and legislators to discuss general budget issues and affect library and to also discuss the requested funds for women intercollegiate athletics.
