KU Meets Guidelines
Pay Hike Budget Okayed
BY VICKI MONNARD
Kenson Staff Writer
The University of Kansas has complied with the 5.5 per cent salary increase guideline established by the federal Price and Wage Board, the Vice Governor, vice chancellor for business affairs.
Nichter said that the board, which required the University to show that its projected salary increases for fiscal year 1973 were within the guidelines, had approved KU's figures. KU's calculations showed that the annual salary for the University was 5.1 per cent in 1973.
In calculating the increase for K.U., the salaries for all the employees were broken down by hourly wage. Figures were combined in October 1971 hourly wage figures, Nichter said.
In comparing these figures, the total salary increases for employees was used, and not one for each individual employee. Nitcher said. For instance, the increase for a professor of English could be 2 per cent and the increase for a professor of business could be 8 per cent. This would meet the guidelines since the average is still below 5.5 per cent.
The board sets salary guidelines for institutions employing more than 1,000 persons by employee unit. KU employs more than 1,600 persons.
Not all employees of the University are included in this increase of 5.1 per cent. According to Nitcher, many University staff members are paid from research and training grants and their positions and salaries are not included in the University budget. The salary the salaries have budgeted and audited as being within the 5.5 per cent. standard.
The Pay Board allows employees to file a special catch-up provision if a unit's increase is over 5.5 per cent, Nitcher said. If a unit has an increase of more than 5.5 per cent but has not exceeded the sum of 7 per cent for each of the last three years, the board permitted an increase of up to 7 per cent for permitted Nitcher said that this option expires June 30.
He said this standard did not apply when there was a promotion to a position of greater skill, effort and responsibility or if there was an offsetting saving in salaries.
Nitcher said that in most cases salary increases were made by the department chairman and dean. He said that the department chairman recommended an increase to the dean and the dean submitted this request to his area vice chancellor. The vice chancellor requests a request to the Board of Regents to submit a recommendation to the Board of Regents.
Shultz Attacks Opponents For Proposals, Records
TORPEKA (AP) —Lt. Gov. TO
Shultz, former Gov. John Anderson Jr., House majority leader Morris Kay, and former Kansas Farm Bureau president Ray Pisich are seeking the nomination for governor.
Shultz, in the sharpest words of the campaign, said Kay "its an honor to be here" and received very poor advice" on his pledge to abolish the sales tax on motor vehicles.
The lieutenant governor said Anderson and his supporters

The Shruz proposals include making state income tax liability for individuals and corporations a fixed percentage of their federal income tax liability; by aggregating 10 per cent at this time.
HE ALSO proposed a 10 per cent reduction in property taxes across the board, higher for younger persons and for older persons and the disabled, placing a greater burden on personal property and intangibles and classification of property taxes.
Shultz said there was no way Kay could keep his pledge to
abolish the sales tax on food and medicine.
Turning to Anderson, Shultz said:
"A governor cannot abolish any tax," said the lieutenant governor. "In addition, his explanation of how he expects to make up the lost revenue is fictitious 'irresponsible' and 'undermanned.'"
I "HAVE heard Mr. Anderson claim he left a surplus in the state treasury. His spokesmen talk of his uncompromised praise and the excellent financial condition of the state treasury, which is one of the Anderson administration.
"The fact is, the Anderson administration spent this state to the brink of bankruptcy. In the office, there was no money in the state treasury to distribute the funds to local units of government."
Shultz said if the Anderson administration had conducted the state's business in a responsible manner, Avery would not have given his signature to the steps that ultimately led to the election of Robert Docking.
Boycott Movement Cancelled In Snack Bar Disagreement
By MARY LIND
Kansan Staff Writer
Any hostility that had come to Kansas University during the Kansas Union to renew a contract which allowed the snack bar in Murphy Hall to be operated by the university.
As of last Thursday, Mikla Larimer, Sacramento, Calif. graduate student had planned to instigate a movement to boycott. He initiated negotiations with the Union. At that time Larimer thought that the Union had regained control of the snack bar because the profits had increased and he was under student supervision
"It was wrong for the Union to take back control of the snack bar, because it had helped several students in the theatre to play school and it was a service to students." Larimer said Thursday.
Forrest Jolly, union vending manager, met with Larimer Monday morning and they expressed openness over the snack bar action.
Jolly said that Larimer had only heard one side of the story and when he heard the complete truth, he shrieked in shock. He had to protect the action.
Thursday Jolly said that the reason the Union regained supervision of the bar snack was that the students in charge had not been keeping the area clean and meet the state health regulations.
He said examples of violations of the health codes were the leaving being left early in the morning and not being picked up until midnight.
Jed Davis, director of the University Theatre, sang at a concert where she was a controversial one and did not feel that any action needed to be made.
"I think we're really cutting our own throats if we make a big controversy out of it. The
students may get it back sometime, but a big issue is made over it, the union may just say forget it. I think we aren't junning flames that weren't in the first place." said Davis.
Jolly said that there is no hostility between the students and the Union over the Murphy concession.
"They're pleased that we're down there now. It's a service for them and it's working out smoothly." Jolly said.
The snack bar will continue to be run by Union personnel Jolly said.
Several University of Kansas students have provided some of the essential data to be used in a case study. Mr. Lawrence area, according to Barry Wellar, assistant professor of geography and director of the

should be appropriated.
The KU Institute for Social and Environmental Studies became a think tank in 1973 on the request of Ron Short, former city-county planning commissioner.
WELLAR SAID Short believed both the University and Wellar had a certain level of credibility in dealing with such studies. The University offered courses that were related to their studies, but were not analyses and Wellar had participated in similar studies conducted in Chicago and Los Angeles.
"The entire analyses was initiated by Short and he set up a good portion of what the University was to do." Wellar
The analyses have been conducted in the development of a cost prehensive planning process for Lawrence and its environment,

"I FEEL that the scope of this report is unique. It forms the basis of what will be done here for the next five years, maybe 10."
Those working on the report are only allowed to make five types of recommendations: conservation, code enforcement or have grown up in weeds, rehabilitation where needed
Wellar said he felt the report was unique for yet another reason. Although many similar studies have been conducted by cities across the country, "none of them have examined money that we have," he said.
Students Aid in City Analyses
The survey, done by the planning department, was not as intense, and therefore could be conducted through the use of a digital photograph.
The students have conducted a foot survey of their neighbor's property, and an outline of the blocks to be covered and the structures on them.
IT WAS THE student's responsibility to mark down the exterior conditions of the structure, the conditions of the property, both front and back, of the building of sidewalks, streets and alleys.
The students made no survey of the people in those neighborhoods was neither time nor money. The social-economic background of the people will be collected from census census and local agencies
The city-county planning department surveyed McClanshan's surveyed the remaining 28 neighborhood-houses. The survey also responsible for about 60 tables, 200 to 300 pages of narrative description included in the survey.

Discussing the Democratic convention, Pomerance said:
Wellar said it would be MeCianathan's task in the report to tell the citizenry how the neighborhoods came about.
"It has been useful for the students as applications research," Wellar said.
Nine geography and architect students have been responsible for creating an interior Lawrence neighborhood. The analyses have
"Very few communities do a detailed report before they start working," said the former head of said. "We have suggested all kinds of things that should be done."
Throughout the whole event, we established priorities, and the highest priority was the public interest of the citizens and the protesters.
The convention, which lasted one week, resulted in only two arrests—one was for assault after a protester tried repeatedly
to kiss a Miami policeman. Two policemen were slightly injured.
More than 1000 state and local law enforcement officials were on duty in Miami Beach during the convention. National security troops placed on standby in the event of trouble were never used.
During the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago, 680 arrests were made and 1,381 protesters, policemen and others participated.
"I think that the climate and the tone set this time will be a sort of a pattern for the next convention." Pomerance said.
"university-city projects sometimes cause problems. In a small community, such as this, you sometimes have to say things you don't really mean in order to cause friction." Wellar vaal.
THE ONLY problem the University has had with the city so far, however, was a shortage of city staff members, Wellar said.
"If the city had reacted to our data when they were first turned in," Wellar said. "the analyses showed that it was a delay that forced us."
For example, the Hillcrest neighborhood was hard to divide as it was a mixture of urban and residential.

"I've taught myself everything," says Cooper. "I learned to sing by listening to some old dubrec songs. First, I played a part, and then I play the record over and learn Paul's part."
"I guess you could say that I've always been a singer by her lyrics than by her music. I used to write love songs, but that was more of a gift," Michell said.
Cooper hesitates to compare his music with that of any other current musician.
"Our report will eliminate the citizen excusing himself by saying he does not know what is going on." Wellar said.
He admits that he has to do a lot of thinking before he writes a song.
Cooper is currently working on a song about the death of childhood.
"The narrator is Time," Cooper said. He's telling about her own self-esteem and herself turning into a woman and her childhood behind.
"I PRACTICALLY have to think the whole song through before I can get it right in my mind," he said.

Five years of practice as a guitarist and songwriter have earned Dana Cooper. 21 years of experience with Electra Records in Los Angeles.
The neighborhoods have been evaluated extremely critically. If we correct minor deficiencies, we will be no major ones tomorrow.
The Institute will be responsible for having the report prepared and distributed. It will be sold to anyone wishing a copy. "We want to make the copy as useful as people are possible." Wellar said.
Cooper, who began playing guitar at age 17, started his career singing in coffee houses in Kansas City and New York.

"My interests are stimulated by fear" he said.
Aside from his music, Cooper is a very interesting person in his own right.
Though he said he hadn't really considered it seriously, the "star image" associated with someone like Beatsles or Dylan scares him too.
HE SAID that while he was in Los Angeles the problem with smog really hit him. It scared him into a realization of the smog problem. He also said that politics does not interest him, but people are accused because of the lack of good men in public office.
"If it ever happens I'll prepare myself for it, but I don't think I'd put up with people following me around all the time. I value my privacy too much. I also don't hurt the artist, should be harrassed."

For the future, Cooper says his goal is to "make money."
"I hate to sound materialistic," he said, "but it is the truth. I want to make enough money so that I can afford life and won't have to worry. I'd like to have my own recordingtudiando and get started in the business."
EXPRESSING an interest in Stravinsky, Cooper said that someday he would like to write an entire symphony.
"I like to progress from one type of music to another," he said, "just learning how to play it and learning more about it."
For now, Cooper is keeping
him up-to-date with his up-
lifting album. The album
is scheduled to be released this
January and will feature a
new album in the fall.

DAY CARE CENTER
The Human Development and Family Life Child Care Center will offer full day care for children, ages four and five years. Careful attention will be given to maintaining a cross section of racial, social and economical backgrounds. We feel that we can offer experiences that will contribute to the fullest development of your child.
OPENING DATE: August 28, 1972 (The Day Care class year follows the University calendar with regard to opening and closing dates, vacation days and does not operate during final examination periods.)
HOURS: The Day Care Classroom will be open from 7:30 to 5:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday. It is important that all children arrive by 9:00. Bringing your child in later than this will mean he will miss too much of the morning and will be disruptive to the rest of the group. The children are free to begin leaving anytime after 3:00.
FEES: There will be a charge of $17.00 per week per child.
STAFF: Our school staff consists of professionally trained faculty, graduate and undergraduate students. The Day Care facility is directed by Dr. Donald Green.
PROGRAM: Our objective is to provide an environment that enhances behaviors in children appropriate to their development. The child may learn many preacademic skills such as colors, shapes, phonics, numerals and letter writing, or he may learn self-help skills such as shoe tying, scissor cutting and buttoning. We hope that our activities foster emotional, social, and academic growth for each child.
MEALS: A well balanced lunch will be served everyday as well as a morning and afternoon snack.
Requests for enrollment may be granted by calling Miss Judy Wonn at 864-4950 extension 33, or stopping by the Human Development office. Room 130 Haworth Hall, on the University campus, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
