Jayhawker to Combine Sections
By FOSS FARRAR Kansan Staff Writer
This year's Jayahawker will contain three sections, instead of the four of previous years, but its content won't be much to forget.
Rick McKernan, Goodland junior at Auburn and expected to combine the spring and graduation sections into a single case because it is an integral part of his program.
He said the American Yearbook Co. of Topeka reserved
time for the printing of each Jahewkha section and it would cost less to set up one time, instead of two, this spring. There is also a table of contentation of a table of contents pages, he said.
"Spring is their peak production time," McKernan said, referring to the yearbook company. "They're busy with the staff working seven days a week. By just having to schedule one leaves them a lot of pressure and us a lot of pressure."
Yearbook sales were down during the fall semester, and they weren't until thought it might be like last year's, which didn't contain the traditional four sections and had a few cards to represent the high street.
McKernan said he planned to follow the traditional format this year, using three issues instead of five. The last issue, which had already been distributed, had included an extended Christmas campaign. The winter issue, which is being

Manipulation of Genetics Possible, Shankel Says
Delbert Shankel, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, discussed the possibilities and probabilities of genetic engineering Thursday. He gave a seminar on human sexuality.
Shankel said that genetic engineering is the manipulating of genes to alter, reproduce, or create new genetic structures.
Much of what Adidas Huxley described in the book *The Nature of Scientific Writing*, has been factually written, Shankel said, has been a key to scientific development. Shankel said many different types of gender manipulation are being explored.
He said because an estimated 65 per cent of all diseases are hereditary, the elimination of many of them has become an area of concern.
SHANKEL SAID three possibilities exist for decreasing genetic defects, incorporating new genes to replace defective gene and limiting formation of defective gene carriers.
Hanksel said selective breeding of human population had been conducted on several genetic manipulation. Issues which must be resolved before selective breeding would be undertaken are whether selective breeding should be voluntary and who should decide which traits are selected.
Shankel said that artificial insemination, a method of fertilization practiced in practice. In the last five years, Shankel said, 10,000 babies have been born as a result of artificial insemination and it had been little selectivity of
donors in the past and that this could be a problem.
SHANKEL ALSO described pre-nalation whereby an egg is fertilized and implanted in the mother. The real problem presents a real problem in naming the parents on the birth certificate. There is a possibility of having as many as five eggs at birth. The father, the proxy mother and
printed, would have people, sports and feature sections, he said. The final issue will emphasize what has been happening in organizations and gain more sports and features.
Student prices were the same this year as they were last year. McKennaan said. Students paid $150. The second semester for the yearbook. He said the Jahayawk he helped by any other organization.
many necessary tasks.
Shankel said Huxley's "test baby tubes" may soon be a reality. He said British scientist had claimed he was ready to create test tube baby if he could volunteer to act as a proxy mother.
One of the potential realities of genetic engineering is cloning, the reproduction of a perfect genetic duplicate of a single parent. Shankel cloned cloning had been accomplished in frogs.

Sex determination before birth is also a possibility in the near future, Shankel said.

the creation of chimeraes, part human and part animal is also known. The researchers said those researchers who had investigated the possibilities said they were "happy" with the results.
"Geneetic engineering has a positive role in society if liberally educated humans have the wisdom to use it," Shankel said.
McKernan said about 30 staff members contributed work to the Jayhawker. He he said he and the business manager received $125 monthly salaries but feature encouraging talent for token rewards.
In planning this year's budget, McKernan said he was striving for a happy medium between the two teams, but wouldn't know the exact figures until the end of the year, but he believed they would be section Jashawker for next year.
"We get the money from sales, advertisement and the sale of space in the yearbook," he said. "We can buy space in the Jawhaker."
"Later on this year I'd like to come over and see the students we react to a cover yearbook and to the different number of sections," he
Kay said that funding for higher education was contingent on the availability of revenues. He added that the legislature would probably support at least what the governor had recommanded in his budget for education as it had done in the past.
Booth attributed the reluctance of the legislature to act on the funding bills to it being an issue, and it would not one cent sales tax would probably not come out of committee until it was assured of passage in the legislature. The people in the western part of the state, he said, opposed the measure and those who supported it, unless passage was assured.
Kansas Billboards Debated in House
THE STRIKE now in progress at the University was also discussed by the legislators. The problem of funding Kay said, was related to the manner in which the university had been state. He said that KU received a lump sum appropriation from the legislature and that the

Kay said that stabilization is needed in which funds had been removed from higher education and welfare, two of the largest sectors.
According to Kay some 25 bills were before the legislature to find alternate means of supporting him, and he was considered by the legislature.
Three state legislators spoke last night on issues concerning the student body of the University of Kansas, before an audience of 25 students. The legislators were sponsored by the Committee of the student vote and spoke in the Night Room of the Kansas Union.
Legislators Say Funding Crucial
The fate of billboards along Kansas highways will soon be covered by new regulations on billboards passed the Kansas Senate this week and is presently under consideration in the House of representatives.
The bill is designed to bring Kansas into compliance with the federal Highway Beautification Act. Kansas is faced with a 10 per mile fee of $8.8 million, in federal highway funds if the bill does not pass.

The speakers were State Sen. Arden Booth, Rep. Morris Kay and Rep. John Vogel, all of Douglas County. Topics of discussion ranged from the strike now in progress by University students to continued funding of the higher education in Kansas.
All three legislators said that funding was a crucial issue now before the legislature.
Booth said that the major bills before the legislature now convene before the legislature. He ranked funding of higher education among the top priorities.
The provisions of the bill do not prohibit, but do discourage, the use of billboards. Current Douglas County regulations perma-
ture that 50 square feet and located at least 25 feet from the highway. The new bill would allow billboards 1,200 square feet, but the minimum distance from the high-
way would be increased to 660
legislature should not interfere in the use of these funds by the University.
BOOTH SAID that student movements at KU had attracted the attention of the legislature. Because the legislature was in session, he said that they received a distorted picture of their actions. He added that some of the demands of the February Sisters had been met by sex legislation and discrimination in hiring practices.
Vogel said that legislation banning sex discrimination was in force and if it is not followed it will be punished for enactment at administrative levels.
Vogel and Booth agreed that the University was more or less unrestricted in the use of state funds. They said that legislators were not in a position to monitor the management of the universities.
When asked if he would be a candidate for governor, Kay said that he would make no announcement until the legislative session ended. He said that this was his most important task at present.
The legislators expressed sympathy for the strikers. They said that they were unaware of the protest and were protested by the strike. Action should be taken through the courts or other agencies if working conditions were not up to federal requirements, they said.
THE STUDENT VOTE was also considered by the legislators. All three descaled that registration of new voters had been impeded by the legislature. They said that their concern and that of the legislature was in facilitating registration.
Kay said that the student vote would have impact in all three districts, including West Vogel and Booth agreed that one would be important in the constituency and that students would vote for legislators who would represent the interests of their constituents.
James Adair, manager of Barnard Sign Co., a local billboard company, agreed to legislative. Adair said in order to see a billboard 660 feet from a highway it must be much larger. He asked the cost of erecting a billboard.
Vogel said that in his contact with student legislators and students he felt that they were not after radical change.
"All this legislation will do is make all small billboard companies go under and all the big billboards go under," Wager Roger counts. zoning
Student voters, according to the three, were solid thinkers and would not be much different from the general public.

administrator, supports the legislation. He said he would like to be able to remove from the highway one or two counties of one or two, all billboards in Dougss County curtailed by county regulations, he said.
McKernan said sales were slightly down this year primarily because of a reaction to last season, but he said, Nebraska and K-State had sold somewhere under him last year while KU had sold nearly all year.
Kellum foreases great difficulty in either the removal or relocation of existing billboards. The bill does not permit removal or prosecution until federal and state laws are appropriated for compensation.

He said some signs and billboards had been abandoned and owners must be located before any action could be taken.
Student Union Activities has received nine applications for the SUA Board. The nine applicants will be interviewed tonight by an interviewing committee composed of the retiring board of the省院 Board and representatives of the Kansas Union operating committee. The interviewing committee meets to select the officers for the new board.

The SUA Office has also
received 17 applications for
specific board member positions.
The deadline for board member
applications is 5 p.m. Friday, and
seven weeks before that time.
