Regulations Would Raise Expenses
City Zoning Exempts KU
By GARY NEIL PETERSON
Lawrence, like other cities, has a zona ordinance which helps her们 to avoid being an ex-governor adequately provide a workable plan to map and construct the city.
The University of Kansas campus, however, is exempt from adhering to these standards.
THE CITY ZONING code, adopted in 1966, is a set of rules governing the construction of buildings in the city may be used. These laws decree where houses, office buildings and manufacultures are to be constructed. They regulate such things as parking, landscaping, building heights and windows.
The purpose as outlined in the ordinance says in part: "Thezoning regulations set forth the rules for the health and safety to promote the health, safety, morals, and the general welfare of the City of Lawrence and its residents in the streets; to secure safety from fire; panic; and other dangers; to provide adequate housing; and prevent the overcrowding of land."
Despite article 20-202 of this ordinance which states "The jurisdiction of this ordinance shall apply to all land located in the City of Lawrence, Kansas," the University is granted immunity.

If the University were required o follow the ordinance it would be in greater financial difficulties ban it is presently in.
These expenses would come from the necessity of planting more bushes, constructing walls, landscaping yards, ranches and exits from the parking lots, widening streets, purchasing buildings permits, certificates of occupancy, special use permits and submitting site plans.
While this would entail great sums of money, it would also add to the cost of the city to handle the increased load, according to large numbers.

"I TRIED TO PUT McCollson into it successfully but once it viewed it in full light, it was appalling," he said.
THE ORCHESTRA then told him that they would not play if McCollum would allowed to perform.
Bukaty said while the McCollum skit was being performed Thursday night, the band started to play its instruments and the audience of 500 to 600 people had tried to stop it and after several minutes he quieted the noise.
The McColm skit was the second one written by the hall. The other was written because McColm did not have their music and dancing skills.
Bukaty said he thought that McCollium had understood that they were responsible for their own music.
Steve Orcutt, Kansas City
Kenny Reed, resident in favor of the skis, said there was a misunderstanding between the production staff as to who was responsible for the music. McCollum thought that KU-Y

leads dropped out, the music wasn't arranged and participation wasn't good.
"We took it upon ourselves to change the script," he said.
He said he took the new script to the KU-Y and Bukaty and KY decided to take a chance on it. He used the script scripts were completely different.
George Pangbun, Erlama. A graduate student and McColum Hall president, said the skit had been approved by the McColum
Nashimh Hall, not located on university premises as opposed to private buildings, is required to meet all requirements of the ordinance.
The skit was performed for the hall last Tuesday night.
In cooperation with the University, Nasmith Hall conforms to the rules and regulations concerning student residents. At he same time; the hall must be the dictate of City Hall.
Bukaty said the McColum skin was not one of the four major skits performed at Rock Chalk Theater, one chosen by the three judges.
McColum residents thought they should be guaranteed a position since they were an early adopter of everything ready to eat. Bukayt said.
The ordinance says that Naismith Hall must have 1/4 parking places for each 2 oceans. He will have a living unit, whichever number is greater. Oliver Hall, on the other hand, need only have the number of spaces so designated by the architect. He will have University planning board.
However, the KU-Y said there must be an independent in the revue and McColium was included in the In-Between-Actions.
Bukaty said he told the KU-Y there would be no guaranteed places in the revue.
IF SOMEONE in any campus university housing wishes to establish what is called a "home out of the home, not outlawed by residence hall contract, that resident may. In any residential area out in the city though, a building should parade of a fine or imprisonment.
This is covered in article 17 of 20-1701 which prohibits a home occupation in a residential area. A home occupation includes an occupant in the assembly of handicraft articles, laundering and pressing, teaching or tutoring and sales to persons on the premises. These types of things can go on if a space permit is obtained from the city.
Although most home occupations such as sewing or attending a class, they could be belated if a person filed a complaint at the police department.
BUSINESS ENs LINewance are required to have an eight-foot high screening fence or wall to separate a loading area from a residential district includes homes and apartments).
The purpose of this is to eliminate the unsightiness of trucks loading and unloading food or garbage of manufactured goods. To preserve the beauty of the area to the residential district surrounding. The University is not required to have such a wall between the residence halls on Daisy Hill and the other apartments and the other halls.
Another incident where fairness to Lawrence businesses is questionable relates to parking lots.
Size and location of these loading facilities is also determined by the city codes.
IF THE CITY or business wishes to construct a parking lot on land located in the city limits, the Building Inspector's office for the building Inspector's office for
approval. Zoned as C-1, off street parking, the site plan size and location on the lot and the placement of all trees, bushes and grass must be shown. A four to six foot wallpapered wall or fence must separate the lot from the street and adjoining property
This part of the code is another

ecological balance, according to
The University, however, is not required to uphold the city's responsibility of beautification.
LARGE PARKING LOTS such as X and O zones have no such limits between O zone and Naimshi Hall and another one stands between O zone and the single family homes across Eighteenth
The city zoning ordinance also prohibits the use of parking lots for uses other than parking by car. You may only park any Use for bazaars, charging parking fees over and above the regular charge, if any, would require the obtaining of a special card to 20-607 of the ordinance.
This means that if KU were under the jurisdiction of the city, a permit would have to be obtained in order to charge 50 cents for people to park in O zone for football or X zone for football games.
CONCERNING THE EX- excavation of land for construction purposes, the ordinance in 20111114 requires a special use permit required for adequate measures will be taken to prevent odor, dust, noise, lights, drainage and traffic from being objectionable to uses described.
If construction and excavation problems arise and become objectionable to residents around a construction site, complaints will be filed against the matters will be taken care of to assist Lawrence citizens of their right to peace and quiet guard them by the zoning条例.

PARKING LOTS in Lawrence must, according to 2011/12(a)(4), "have ingress and egress so that no traffic congestion and hazards."
The ordinance calls for parking lots to be no more than three miles from the city, a distance from a major thoroughfare by way of a major or other road in Mississippi and Eleventh streets are neither one major thorough

Greek Theatrics Differ in Appeal

Building heights in Lawrence for residences and office buildings, the building site is 45 feet or 45 feet, unless the area of the building site lot is inundated to minimize overcrowding of the land and the destroying of the foundations.
BUT BECAUSE of it, litigation was necessary by the Allen and O'Hara Corporation, owners of the building, a city, a variance from the law, in order that they could build a tensity building with fewer than 50 percent of its square feet.

Named best actor at Rock Chalk
By STUART CLELAND Kaneon Reviewer
As fraternalities and sororites emerged on their respective skirts, the Chalk Revue" played out its uneven course Friday and Saturday evenings, showing once again the unconscious energy of the annual Greek theatres. As usual, the quality of the production was wildly inconsistent, with various skirts generally providing most of the real entertainment. But even when the scripts were somewhat less original, the energy of the performers and chorus had to be admired. The Lymn Schornick, Yates Center senior, gave a professional sound to the music. And the between-songs were especially polished (except for one female soloist), with special mention going to the choreographer. "There's A Show Comin'"
KAPPA SIGMA and Delta Gamma next presented "The Great Helite or To Hell with the Tithe." The story of a heavenly bounty from the past of Hell, it was plagued by poor pacing and a trite script, although Elliott Hassan, shown commemorating the Devil, and an uncredited
Across the street from Nismith high school was McCollin Elsawon Lewis, Hashinger, Templin Joseph R. Pearson, Fraser and Blake the University was free to study stories high as long as they were structurally sound and con- tributively building Building Code used by the state.
THE EVENING'S first effort,
"The Sweet Smell of Success or
How An American Beauty Rose",
Kappa Kappa Gamma, was an overlong but fun take-off on the Miss America pageant, circle good shing with his dance and dancing trail rise of a ninety-degree door type from Kansas all the way to her success in the concert, some tasteless and humil jokes, the script is (in my opinion) the second best of the evening. As Dorothy, Shannon Halverhout, as many moments, as did Winn Halverhout, Shawne Mission mission, as her wiley manager, explained that real talent doesn't consist of being a great opera singer or ballerina, but in tap playing.
Kappa Sig was funny as a rather bemused Saint Peter. Again the musical numbers saved the day, especially "When You in Hell You Stay in Hell." (Though why should you be a girl on the boys' shoulders?)
According to the ordinance, in a residential-dormitory district, if the building is to exceed the height limit from the building to the front, rear and side property lines or lot boundaries, the building must be four foot or height increase.
IN RESPECT to this law,
normally buildings must be set back off the street at least 50 feet for the first 31 stories.
Elsworth Hall is located about 25 feet from Engel Road passing in front of it. If the campus were under city jurisdiction, the hall would be about 25 feet from the street unless a variance were granted from the law.
the evening's final skit was the *Uckoo Story* or Time of Tau Delta, a tale from Tau Delta and Kappa Alpha Theata. The story of the breaking and repairing of a town clock, it is one of the most charming a capella chorus number, an unappeasantly frenetic melange of smutty jokes, songs and shrieking actors, all of whom appeared to be infiltrated with St. Vitus dance. Perhaps the most endearing character is the town drunk staggered on-stage tucking in his shirtless trousers for work ballerina. This is humour?
FAR AND AWAY the best production was Alpha KappaLambda and Alpha Gamma Delta. The odds are Even that the Bengals seeming rare virtues of talent, imagination and originality, it transplanted the battle of the two teams with funny and touching results. Helping move things along was excellent original music by Eric Braun with clever and well thought out lyrics by Bikales; Daw Swenson, Sioux Falls junior; Nancy Cohen with Brian Martin. Wootham freshman. The script was fine too despite one or two lapses), and I especially liked the incarnation of God, as flashlight sources.
I WOULD BE more hesitant to criticize Rock Chalk if all the skirts were of the same relative height. I would not AKL's and AGD's came up with something far superior to the others in its freshness and originality shows that college students can write entertaining skirts that reflect on trite situations, idiotic plots and stupid sex jokes, future script contributors would do well to follow their example. For only a few years now, it has become the showcase for real creativity that it deserves be.
To determine how large a lot must be to build a residence hall on it, there must be 800 square feet per living unit. The total number of units of the University residence halls on Daisy Hill is 1.479.
This means that a minimum of 1.2 m square feet, incl. about 1.2 m square feet, are the lot area on which Nunemaker is situated, according to figures cited in the land use regulations there is about 1.3 million square feet of land on the hill. If the land site that Nunemaker is on were taken from this university were subject to review by the city, part of a university campus, be condemned and removed.
CONCERNING OFFICE building requirements, the ordinance says that for every 300 parking spaces, a parking space must be provided.
Fraser, with an office space of almost 85,000 square feet, provides 30 spaces, but the office also require 283 parking spaces.
Strong Hall has about 230,000 square feet of office space in it, however only 22 parking spaces exist in the old building to be occupied by workers at Spacefrog. The ordinance would require 776 spaces.
There are approximately 20,000 square feet, useable in space for parking. The location located in the city, the required number of parking spaces would be

State Women Meet, Urge Party Reform
The first Kansas Women's Political Caucus, held in Wichita Saturday, called on the state to work for women's priorities and humanist goals and to recruit and rally support such priorities and goals.
The caucus voted unanimously to:
1. Support Kansas Senate Bill 53, a series of amendments to this Kansas Act Against dissecination, without further amendments.
2. Urge the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment as passed by the House of Representatives without crippling amendments.
3. Recommend that the legislature fund the Governor's Commission on the Status of Women.
The morning session included speeches by Cora Hobble, chairman of the Governor's Commission on the Status of Women and Wikimedia to the state legislature from the League of Women Voters, and

"The Soviet Union going to Japan was the same as the US," Ketzel said. "The Soviet Union does not recognize Japan, and the two countries have never signed an agreement. Japan has the potential to develop Siberia, but it cannot be with the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union trip to Japan must be considered to be important, as the American triumph."

Ketzel said this was one way out of longstanding animosity with the U.N. mission. He said the progression of events which led up to the Nixon trip to China bore a strong resemblance to a theory proposed some time ago.
"The Chinese, long before the Communists and before the intruder came here, held themselves as the center of civilization," the Ketelzi insisted. I don't know. But the fact that it was Americans going to Peking cannot help but suggest to some that this is a one-way ticket.
KETZEL said the policy changes made by the U. S. began several years ago and were largely unilateral.
Ketzel said the trip to China was brought on by many factors, including the fact that which made the trip possible were made by the United States. He said the history of China was shaped by its impact as aspect of Sino-U. S. relations.
