Apollo Jets Homeward With Valuable Cargo
SPACE CENTER, Houston (AP)—Apollo 16 astronauts rocketed out of lunar orbit Monday night, smoothly firing a once-troublesome rocket engine, to begin their 66-hour 240,000-mile voyage home with a record cargo of rocks.
Astronauts, W. Young, Charles M. Duke Jr, and Thomas K. Mattingly II fired the main engine of their command ship, the *Knox* attack helicopter and out of radio contact with earth.
That engine had delayed the lunar landing and almost forced cancellation of the final moon excursion which provided Apollo 16's major findings.
Eleven minutes later they reappeared from behind the lunar backside.
They had burst of the moon's orbit and were speeding home.
"Coming up like thunder," said Young.
"Burn completely nominal."
"IT'S REALLY beautiful," he added.
"That baby really reads out of there."
While Duke and Mattingly were busy taking pictures of the rapidly receding moon, Young looked toward the earth, and said:
'Spectacular. The earth rise is just beautiful. It just came up like beautiful rock.'
"It's just a crescent earth, a silver," he said. "We can hardly get to get there. We know."
before we get there, but we're really looking forward to it."
Tucked into Casper's hold were 245 pounds of rock and miles of black and white and color film taken on the moon. Geologists believe the rocks may tell the story of how volcanoes wracked the moon a decade ago. The mountains and cave canvases and valleys.
YOUNG AND DUKE collected the moon material during their 7-lour stay in the Descartes Mountain region. They lifted off Sunday night from the highlands, a major portion of the moon never before visited, in their lunar module, Orton.
With the cargo, they had achieved the primary goal of the mission. Apollo 16's stay in moon orbit was shortened 25 hours because of the engine problem discovered before lunar time last Thursday. Between the time and the crucial firing Monday night, the engine fired properly twice, to guard against the possibility of the engine's condition worsening, officials ordered the Apollo mission cut short.
With their science cargo, they had achieved the primary goal of the mission.
Fund Shortage Cited
Budget Recommendations Slash Groups' Requests
By HAL RITTER Kansan Staff Writer
Less than one-fourth of the student questions questioned by the Senate's Finance and Auditing Committee have been received, and the full allocation they requested.
The recommendations released Monday night reflected the problem of a shortage of funds for student organizations faced by students during their budget hearings last week.
The recommendations will not go into effect unless they are approved by the Senate during its budget meeting Wednesday night.
Besides reducing most of the organization requests, the committee cut the proposed budgets of three of the eight student receivers receive funds from the student activity fee.
to receive about $162,920 according to the line item apportionment system approved by the Senate last December, but the committee reduced the request to $156,000.
The Athletic Corporation was supposed
THE LARGEST CUT was to school councils which were given 75 cents per student per semester by the department and enrolment or an estimated $24,440 for fiscal 1973.
The committee reduced this amount to $3,760 and placed a minimum of $200 and a maximum of $1,000 on each council's allocation.
The Student Senate was allotted about $66,725 by the apportionment enactment, but the Senate's budget totaled $60,610. The Senate had recommended an allocation of $66,810.
Committee Vetoes Restructure Bill
Two of the eight areas, the University Daily Kansan and men's and women's intramurals, were voted increases by the committee.
By FOSS FARRAR Kansan Staff Writer
Sixten members of the Student Rights Committee voted Monday night to reject an amendment that would substantially restructure and functions of the Student Senate.
The original amendment was proposed in early April by Peter George, Lawrence special student; Richard Mackenzie, John House; and John House, Ravtown, Mo., senior.
Neil Shortlidge, Chicago junior and member of the Student Rights subcommittee, which studied the amendment, said he objected to the amendment's proposal that the position of student of the student body be abolished.
Shortlidge said that the amendment proposed that "living groups" on campus be represented in the Student Senate but that it failed to define such groups.
Shortside he disagreed with the amendment's proposal for fall elections of the student body president and representatives to the Student Senate. He would instead recommend that election move up to an earlier date in the spring.
The amendment would also change the membership of the Student Executive Board.
THE AMENDMENT also provided that in any student body presidential election, at least 30 per cent of the student body would vote. The president must vote to make the election valid. Shortlisted if elections were moved to an earlier date in the spring, a run-off election could be held a week after the primary, and a per-cent mark were not reached. he said.
Special representatives are elected by the Student Senate and are usually previous Senate members, Shortlidge said.
Shortlist said the amendment proposed would do away with special representatives to the Student Senate but that the subcommittee would propose that the representatives be retained because of their expertise.
involved in the Senate on a rotational basis, Shortlied said. He said the subcommittee objected to this because "StudEx should be a set group so that they would know what was going on for a whole term."
DEBORAH BROOKS, Croston, Md., sophomore and chairman of the Student Senate, who attended the amendment came up at the next Student Senate meeting, possibly in two weeks, she thought the Senate would move to have it in writing. She could study and revise the amendment.
The committee also approved the creation of a minority affairs subcommittee consisting of one member from the Womens Coalition, two members of the Womens Women, two members of the Womens Coalition, one member from the BSU, one member from the AMAS, one member of the Iranian Students, one member of the American Indian and four students.
The committee recommended that Robert Shelton, assistant professor of religion, be asked to attend the first meeting of the minority affairs subcommittee to explain the function of the Human Relations University Senate. Shelton was a former chairman of the Human Relations Committee.
The Kansan was supposed to receive $43,900 or $1.35 per student per semester according to the Senate enactment. The committee recommended an allocation of $60,800 to the Kansan Board had agreed on an increase of $1.85 per student or an estimated $53,760.
INTRAMURALS RECEIVED a recommended increase from $5,150 to $9,750 after the University withdrew its annual allocation of $3,300 to the program.
Two of the apportionment areas, University Theatre, and the Concert Course Series, were recommended to be presented stated in the apportionment enactment.

Budget Cuts May Force Increase in Ticket Prices
Student season ticket prices for football and basketball games may be raised next fall, Dillon Dillon, Hutchinson junior and student body president, said Monday.
prices, according to Dillon.
Dillon said the Athletic Corporation had budgeted $162,000 for the fiscal 1972-73 year based on the expected $162,000 of student activity fees and allotment from the student activity fee.
If the Senate, in its budgeting session Wednesday night, decides to lower the Athletic Corporation's expected revenue, the committee probably be forced to raise student ticket
Dillon said there was also the possibility that a minor raise in student ticket prices would be made even if the Senate decided to fund the Athletic Corporation the entire $102,000.
Although the Athletic Corporation had been "cutting corners everywhere" it would probably lose at least $20,000 this year, Dillon said.
Dillon had regular season ticket prices would probably not be raised within the year. He said regular season tickets had already been printed for next year.
N. Viet Offensive Takes 7 Bases; Drives S.Viet Forces to Highlands
SAIGON (AP) - South Vietnamese forces retreated 15 miles Monday before a slashing North Vietnamese attack in the central highlands that overran seven
They began to regroup Tuesday in a tight defensive ring north of Kontum City, with enemy tanks reported half a mile from the new line.
Troops of two regiments of the South Vietnamese 22nd Infantry Division—
overwhelmed at Tan Canh and Dak To, 25 miles north of Kontum—were reported scattered and trying to reach friendly lines. The fate of its half-dozen American advisers and of its Commander, Col Le Duat Duc, was unknown.
A surface calm prevailed Monday at U.S. Command headquarters in Salamon. But an office present at a top-level command was called into service, and it was used to describe the situation in the
highlands, where the enemy is apparently bent on cutting the major highways and seizing the cities of the three provinces. Some South Vietnamese troops were trapped in Tan Cah when it was overrun by enemy tanks. They were reported in in battle. Ho Chi Minh were maintained with Col. Dat until Monday night.

Student Senate Adopts New KU Curriculum Survey
BY ELAINE ZIMMERMAN
Following a detailed explanation of the KU Curriculum and Instruction Survey, Monday the Academic Affairs Committee of the Student Senate adopted a resolution calling for mandatory use of the survey pressing a budget increase for its operation.
Dennis Embry, Lawrence senior, and Steve Emerson, Tompea senior, directors of the survey, planned activities and future plans for the survey. The committee had requested Embry and Emerson to appear before it decided who would be responsible for requesting the by the survey was warranted.
Kansan Staff Writer
Embry emphasized that the survey's purpose was not merely to evaluate instructors but also to improve the quality of instruction. He concludes that strategy is based on the tick technique. The carrot is the improvement of instruction through diagnosis of teachers'
faults and the stick involves evaluation of performance, he said.
THE TWO-FOLD ASPECT of the carrot and the stick approach. Embryo said, will enable students to choose their courses with teachers and teachers with concrete suggestions.
The third option, made available for the first time this year, allows teachers to request that the results be sent only to them, with no superiors seeing the ratings. The other way around requires instructors could receive help in improving the level of instruction, but not
to have to worry about the effects of adverse ratings on their careers.
Embry said it was important to avoid a hostile environment in evaluating courses and instructors, especially where first-year students were being improved that teachers could achieve through feedback from students would not occur in such an environment. He said evaluation surveys had been moving away from the traditional questions to questions of a diagnostic nature."
EMERSON SAID the third option was an attempt to maintain a balance between the carrot and the stick technique and avoid antagonizing faculty members.
Embry said there has been a change in the hundred-year-old tradition of using research and publication as the only criteria for the promotion and tenure of faculty members. The reversal has not been 100 per cent, he said, but more emphasis is being placed upon the quality of instruction.
Emby said an increasing number of departments were using the Curriculum and Instruction Survey in determining whether non-tenured teachers were rehired. These include the mathematics, English and speech departments, he said.
"It would be politically unfeasible for the administration to require every instructor to use the survey." Embry said. "If this were done, there would be no student publication. The autonomous nature of the survey is important."
ONE-THIRD OF the instructors currently use the survey, Emryh said, and 80 per cent of them have requested that the results be published in Feedback. He said the vehicle by which total faculty would could be achieved was the University Sequate.
Embry said it would be equally inadvisable to act through the University Senate Executive Council. Support for the mandatory use of the survey should be
generated at the grass roots level of the university, he said, reducing faculty spending.
Emby said that the Curriculum and Instruction Survey was in the process of expanding its work beyond the University of Kansas.
ONE COMMITTEE MEMBER proposed inviting AAUP representatives, the committee, to help the mandatory use of the survey to address the committee. He suggested forming a coalition of interested parties to bring pressure for adoption of a mandatory rule.
Embry said the KU chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) adopted a resolution two years ago calling for mandatory publication of survey results as well as its mandator. The AAUP also requested that faculty interest in improving the quality of instruction and a general willingness to participate.
Kansas State Teachers College at Emporia and Oklahoma State University have requested their services, Embry said. He said the survey was now working on a limited basis at Emporia, but technical considerations, such as course designations differing from KU's SSN numbers, made extensive expansion of services impossible without additional personnel.
Widespread use of a Student Profile of Expectations and Values could greatly improve course content, Embry said. For example, he said, an urban policies course containing primarily sociology and political science majors would be taught differently than the same course comprised mostly of architecture and a specialization in the first week of class would give an instructor an idea of the class composition and he could proceed from there, Embry said.
