The referendum was written and circulated by Ed Rolfs, Junction City junior, and Kelly Scott. Houston sophomore, president and vice president of the study body.
Rolfs said the referendum wasn't merely a public opinion poll, but an action that would change how people vote.

body president, said yesterday that he would abide by a 1973 decision of University Attorney Charles Oldfather that ruled referenda invalid.
StudEx Votes to Investigate Athletic Post Appointment
The Student Senate Executive Committee (StuEx) voted last night to have the recent appointment of an assistant athletic director, investigated.
StudEx directed the three student members of the athletic board to examine the circumstances surrounding the appointment Monday of Doug Messer to the assistant director post without the board's knowledge.
Richard Lauter, Evanston, Ill, senior and
vice-chairman of SenEx, asked StudEx to charge him with the investigation because he was "just a little bit tired of being used as a stump by stamping by the Athletic Corporation."
Lauter said the Kansas University Athletic Corporation appointed Messer to the post and then asked the board to confirm him. He said the appointment was in violation of NCAA regulations and the board should have been notified first.
Del Shankel's administrative and academic experience make him an excellent choice for the new post of executive vice chancellor, according to officials at the university.
Officials Like Shankel Appointment
Chancellor Emeritus Raymond Nichols said Shankel's knowledge of the University was one of the reasons Shankel was selected for the host.
Keith Nitcher, vice chancellor for business affairs, said he was also pleased with the choice because of Shanket's long tenure. He is now in academic and administrative positions.

William Balfour, vice chancellor for student affairs, said he highly approved of Shankel as executive vice chancellor. He, along with his administrative and academic experience.
No Action Against BSU Without Formal Protest
A white student must be denied membership in the Black Student Union (BSU) before any action is taken against the student and student leaders said yesterday.
Michael Moore, president of RSU couldn't be reached for comment.
The difficulty encountered by a white student who tried to join BSU was reported by the school administrator.
Mert Buckley, student body president,
said no action should be taken by the
Student Senate unless someone files a formal complaint.
However, Buckley said that if a charge of discrimination was proven, BSU wouldn't be held responsible.

"I've talked to Mickie Dean, Duane Vann, (former presidents of BSU) and Michael Moore on several occasions about the aloofness of BSU," Buckley said, "and I feel that the president's deepest interests to be more open with the Senate and the press about their activities."
PATRICIA WISE, former KU graduate and rising opera star, will perform at 8:00 a.m. on Thursday in the Great Hall of City Hall.
Nancy Archer, student body vice president, said that if BSU wouldn't allow students to join the organization on the basis of academic should at least examine the situation.
According to Archer, if discrimination is proven, Kansas state law would govern the situation and it wouldn't be a senate matter. Two candidates would win opinions on what
John Beiserer, Salina junior, said, "I wouldn't be too concerned unless mem-
bers of the board are in attendance."
William Balfour, vice chancellor of student affairs, is also waiting for a formal announcement.
Ed Rolfs, Junction City sophomore, said the Student Rights and Privileges Committee of the senate should meet this week and investigate BSU activities.
If a formal complaint is filed, Balfour said he would probably try to resolve the problem without using the University judicial process. However, if a compromise couldn't be reached, the University Judiciary would make the final decision.
