ISA requested $723 for office supplies and cultural events. Last year it received $698.
DAVID VAN PARYS, Senate treasurer, said Saturday that he would like to freeze ISA's funds during the investigation.
Van Parys said that if the committee found the obligation about the advertisement to be true, it would receive second time in two years that ISA had requested for one purpose and used them for another.

According to VanParys, in July 1979, ISA requested $100 to print brochures. VanParys, who was treasurer at the time, said he later discovered that Mr. Parys had been used to print a student's master's theory.
"I'm going to go before the committee and ask that their funds be frozen because they don't act in good faith," Van Parys said. "We operate on the assumption that groups act in good faith and when they say they are using money for one purpose, we assume that's what it's for."
"When you add it all up, they are violating their contract with the Revenue Code and the Student Senate."
VAN PARWS SAID that although the treasurer's office should be responsible for keeping track of student funds, it should not have to police a particular group.
"I can't take the time to baby-sit that group," he said.
Loren Busy, Finance and Auditing Committee chairman, said he was not convinced that an investigation was necessary.
"All there is now is a lot of alleged violations," he said. "As long as they can prove that they're being neutral with Senate funds, it doesn't matter what they do with their other money."
The only stipulation against political activity in the Senate's regulations prohibits using ac-
trity fee money to promote issues or candidates in elections or referendum.
"I don't think that there's any place we can get them for misuse of funds." Bubby said.
Billa said that ISA probably should be funded under the Student Services Committee rather than the Cultural Committee, because of political filers printed by the association.
"I'm having second thoughts about them being funded under the Cultural Committee," he said. "I have nothing against them being political, but I cannot claim itself as a cultural organization."
AMANI AGREED with Billa, saying that ISA was not representative of Iranian culture.
"I don't think politics becomes the culture of any society," he said. "They only present a ensided view, and that view comes from outside the country and has no roots with the people."
In the past, Amiani has said that ISA represents a communist viewpoint.
Shahrok Azedi, an ISA member, said that the association was open to all students.
"There are some groups of Iranian students who don't want to join with us because we think that people should have rights to oppose and support Khomeini," he said.
"The members of the Muslim Student Association, the ones who support Khomeini, can join us, but those who oppose him can't join them."
He said that ISA allowed its name to be put on the leaflets to support free speech.
AZEDI SAID THAT all political leaflets published by the association were paid for by association members and not by activity fee money.
"That means to us that we are supporting freedom of speech," he said.
Azied said that he did not think the association would be in favor of being funded under the assessee.
"What we want is to be recognized as the representatives of the Iranian students, and the only organization who is qualified to do so," he said.
Heape said changing the committee that ISA was funded under was not solution to the problem.
AZEDI, ANDRHONDA NEUGEBAUER, a member of Latin American Solidarity, said there was a feeling among some groups that the Inter-American Union over the use of Senate funds by cultural groups.
"The leadership of the International Club, without being asked, has intervened in the publication of leaflets and ads, and the leadership doesn't have that right." Neuweizauer said.
Van Parss said that all the accounts of the cultural groups were separate and not under the same jurisdiction.
"Any group that is named in the budget, has a separate account," he said. "A lot of times ask Krupa Bla to process their forms, but they go through Krupa or the International Club."

"We had a meeting that was designed to in effect get from former Chancellor Dykes, and myself, because of our past experience with the KU Medical Center, our advice relative to what could be done to address some of the concerns," Berman said.
He said the meeting was meant to help the University and any statements contrary to that were "absolute and palpable nonsense."
"It's a fundamental absurdity to suggest that there is any association, any nexus whatsoever between the budget cuts and November's elections," he said.
"That frugality is being expressed completely across the board."
"If the Legislature, if the Ways and Means Committees, are taking a frugal approach to appropriations that this particular year, it has to do with the financial situation of the state," Berman said.

THE WISHES of the Big Eight's coaches and officials came true when the NCAA announced its at-large bids yesterday and both Missouri and K-State received one.
FARRAR SAID that he did not expect Carlin to support the bill with the mistake.
not recommend any changes. Because the hill passed in general orders action, the only way that the change could come would be to have a proponent ask that the mistake be corrected
Farrar said that he was confident that somebody would suggest the change.
"It would be political suicide," Farrar said, "because of all the royalty in the state."
Branson, maintaining that the mistake was a minor matter, said that the opponents of the bill might be making too big of a deal about the mistake.
Missouri will play Lamar in the first round of the Midwest sub-regional at Austin and K-State will play the winner of the West Coast Athletic Conference in the West sub-regional at Los Angeles. The playoff is between San Francisco and Pepperdine.
Carlin wants the royalty owners to be totally exempted from the tax and the mistake in print could have been acceptable to him. He said he hoped that a quick solution to the misprint could be found by them.
The Missouri-Lamar winner will face Louisiana State and the K-State-wheever winner will face Oregon State, last week's first-rated team.
"I expect that this will all get done fairly easily," Branson said. "I don't think that too many votes will be changed because of this."
K-State Coach Jack Hartman had parents about a trip to Los Angeles for his WWW.com visit.

A REQUEST OF KANSAS UNIVERSITY
I was recently informed that the important service provided by the Audio-Reader Network for the Visually Handicapped in Kansas would be greatly reduced, if not eliminated, by the implementation of quadraphonic broadcasting either at KANU, Kansas University's public radio station, or other stations along the Audio-Reader intranet network. As this system of broadcasting must first be approved by the State Commission (FCF) before it could be used anywhere, it was disturbing to find, in a representative Tom Hagemed, Mr. Richard Shiben, Chief of the Broadcast Bureau of the USDA, a belief that permitting quadraphonic broadcasting would mean the end of Subsidiary Communications Authorizations (SCA) services, which include background music and reading services for the blind . . . in fact, is not true." This swearing statement, unsupported by data or explanatory material of any kind, pales along the following two opinions which I obtained from the Association of Radio Reading Services.
Mr. Robert D. Watson, senior engineer, Minnesota State Services for the Blind, finds "the greatest concern . . . the possible authorization of the 4-4-4 method of quadraphonic transmission which would use the 61 to 91 KHr part of the channel spectrum for quadraphonic information, and suggest the use of SCA's be relocated at 5k Hz." The use of 95kHz SCA with 4-4-4 quadraphonic transmission will not work with usable speech programming.
Mr. Jules Cohen, an engineer well known to the Federal Communications Commission, is described as concluding that "... systems employ three quadraphonic subcarriers, would in effect, eliminate the subsidiary services now so successfully provided with the 67 KHz subcarrier, the 95 KHz subcarrier, with its limited bandwidth, functions to so degrade system performance that the SCA is useless except for a narrow band need such as telemetry."
Section One of the Fourth Amendment prohibits the states from making or enforcing "any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States." Audio-Reader is indisputably a privilege, an immunity i.e., a freedom granted to a special category of persons, cherished by its listeners. Our legal system disguises corporate mergers or consolidations which could still competition thereby protecting the individual; yet the implementation of quadraphondic broadcasting will work just such mischief by severing the communicatory lifetime of several thousand print-handicapped individuals. Black's Law Dictionary lives public both as "everybody", the community at large, "the people" and as "a", a part of the inhabitants of a community. "This second definition of public is the one Mr. Wailson used when he said: "The services occupying the 6 KHz SCA channels are important public assets which deserve to be, and must be, protected."
There are many people in the community who sincerely hope that Kansas University will remain committed to this standard of public broadcasting.
