Insulation strike ends at Watson
After a 3% month strike that set the Watson Library renovation project back two months, insulation workers agreed Saturday to a new three-year contract.
The contract, signed in Kansas City, Mo., raised the workers' hourly wage from $15.79 to $17.89 the first year. Wages will increase to $19.64 the second and to $21.64 the third year.
The insulation workers struck contractors in Missouri and Kansas after a three-year contract expired in October.
Three labor contracts involving other Watson renovation workers expire in April and are being negotiated, Bob Green, president of the B.A. Green Construction Co., said. Green Construction is the general contractor in the Watson renovation.
Green said the Northeast Association of General Contractors had been negotiating separately with the bricklayers, the teamster and the carpenters unions for about a month.
Green said, however, that he did not expect any future strikes to last as long as the insulators' strike.
ASK seeks new campus director
By GENE GEORGE Staff Reporter
KU's lobbying efforts in the Kansas Legislature probably will not be hampered by the lack of a case against Kanader for the assault of a Kansas director according to Jeff Evan, interim ASK director.
Evans, who was ASK director from April to December 1980, said the situation would be different if campus ASK officials were in charge of leader in the middle of the legislative session.
"Right now, everyone is still jockeying for positions," he said.
WITH SCHOOL just starting, Evans said,
ASK has not "gone out and beat the bushes yet"
to find a new director.
ASK will begin advertising today for a new director
Evans said the new director would have to work hard this session to get better feedback.
The ties have not been great with the
He said, however, that relations between students and legislators were not strained.
House and Senate and the KU campus;" Evans said.
"We need to know them (the legislators) personally to be effective. We need to put the time in."
THE NEW director will have a good start. Evans said, because the Douglas County delegation held a forum in December at the Oakland City Executive director of ASK, outlined ASK aims.
ASK officials from KU will be working with the state ASK officials on issues such as keeping the beer drinking age at 18 and making a new landlord-tenant bill, Evans said.
But, he said, there are other issues he that the University should get involved in separately.
"Most of these issues are budgetary," he said.
Evans said KLUB lobbies should work for pay increases for faculty members and for staff.
PART-TIME JOBS are important for some students, but the pay system, as outlined by federal minimum wage standards, is hahazard. Evans said.
He said ASK should push for a pay system that would guarantee the minimum wage for certain jobs even though the student might not work a 40-hour week.
Students who carry full-time schedules and work deserve the minimum wage, he said.
All students who work for the University get at least minimum wage. However, officials have said the latest increase in the minimum wage will force the University to lay off some workers.
EVANS AGREED, saying the new minimum wage of $8 might have caused problems for some occupants.
Another issue that should concern KU is the formation of central library system, Evans
THE SYSTEM is designed to save money for capital improvements by eliminating the need to buy additional copies of certain books or other publications, he said.
2 students die in crash
Two KU students were killed and another injured early Sunday morning in Montrose, Colo., when their car crashed into a truck parked by the side of a road.
Frederick Myers, Roeland Park junior, and the driver, Michael Grauburger, Prairie Village junior, were killed instantly, according to a doctor at the scene of the accident.
The three three were on their way back to Lawrence after a weekend vacation in Colorado.
Scott Sipin, Leawood junior, was hospitalized in Montrose with a concussion and minor head injury.
Splaim, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, said Grubberberger apparently fell asleep and was hospitalized.

He said University administrators were unprepared for the elimination of the six-month period, which in past years allowed them to wait until the next fiscal year to adjust wages.
KU is required to federal minimum wage standards because 80 percent of workstaff are employed in the KU area.
