Budget Cuts Stop Raises
College Presidents Say Promotions to Be 'Dry'
By GAYLE TRIGG
Kansan Staff Writer
The presidents of the six state colleges and universities were scheduled to meet with the Kansas Board of Regents this morning to submit their recommendations for what amounts to be "dry" faculty promotions. They said because the schools will all be filled in, they would not be promoted which would be granted were expected to be without a financial raise.
Of the six presidents only three were available for comment Thursday on the Iraq war.
Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers Jr, said that it now appeared by freezing salaries at their present level and by curtailing the number of hourly employees, mostly students, rate at which they are hired. RU could reduce financial deficit to approximately $250,000.
CHALMERS SAID this amount may be small enough that it could be absorbed by the various schools at KU in areas of spending, to be decided on independently by each school. One school may decide to have fewer guest speakers, another to have fewer faculty members in residence and another to take its jobs from office supplies. The amount to be cut may be about a cent of the non-salaried money appropriated to the schools.
Clark Ahlberg, president of Wichita State University, said he hoped the present appropriations were not final. He said he expected the Board of Regents to request the legislature to reinstate that part of the budget for the university and to increase its proximately $210,000, to enable WSU to have the additional 16 faculty positions and 5 clerical positions needed. At present he

estimated the budget cut at 7.1 per cent.
SEOUL (UPI)—The South Korean national police announced Thursday the captures of two Communist agents they had been sent to Korea to sabotage the coming general elections. The police said the men planned to blow up industrial facilities, organize student demonstrations and create confusion.
AHILBERG SAID that on a percentage basis, WSU actually had the largest increase recommended by the governor to the legislature. He attributed this to the fact that WSU had an enrollment increase which KU, Pittsburgh and Emporia did not have. The universities funded for the College of Health-Related Sciences, which has already been established.
If any deficits remain after the legislature adjourns Tuesday, Alhberg said they would have to cut back in areas such as research, the library, the computation center and in staff and faculty recruitment. He said there must be timely adjustments for civil service employees.
JOHN E. V. IISER, president of Kansas State Teachers College at Emporia, said he thought Emporia's appropriations were about 6 percent because they were where they were at the beginning of this year. He estimated that they had lost about 5 to 7 per cent because of inflation, with The Government, Emporia State will lose 10.7 faculty positions for next year and 2.7 clerical positions.
Local Landlord Gives Ultimatum
An eviction threat has been made by a landlord whose property was pictured in the University Daily Kansan's Wednesday editorial pages.
An incomplete check Thursday night of residents of the houses showed that James Grimes, Anderson, Ind., freshman, had been threatened with eviction by his landlord. Grimes lives at 1000 Ohio St., better known as "Pooh Corner."
Grimes said that he had been contacted by his landlord, Daniel S. Ling, associate professor of physics, and told to find other accommodations. Ling gave no reason, Grimes said, for wanting him to leave. Grimes said he had no plans to leave.
When Ling was contacted by the Kansei, he said he had talked with Grimes and suggested that he (Grimes) went he was unhappy with his apartment. Ling said Grimes had told him that he liked it at the house and planned to stay.
"Mr. Grimes is going to move from there we way or another," Ling said.
Visser said they would be able to get on by this budget for one year, if they had to, but he said he was worried because they wouldn't be able to make the changes and improvements that had been planned. There had been a plan to revise and improve security on the Emporia campus, but the program would have to be postponed. He also mentioned concern about the situation of medication visits, coming up. He said they really needed to put time and effort into that.
LIME OTHER COLLEGE presidents in the state. Vicepresident no salary increases for faculty, staff or civil service personnel. Vicepresident no salary increases for the salaries of all state employees, it would make little difference at Emporia State, as the legislature had essentially frozen university
There will only be “dry” promotions at Emporia next year, vacant positions will be left open, the part-time staff will be cut, the staff from Emporia will be cut back and subcontracts will be at a minimum. Visser does not expect to drop any existing programs, but to make an across-the-broad approach.
A CUT OFF $907,000 left Fort Hays State College with an operating budget at the same level as this past year's budget, according to a recent study. That means that they too would make no salary increases nor create any new positions, but that there were vacant positions on the lower levels which they would like to fill. He said they could pay them $5,100 for filling those positions, because of the low salary.
Both George F. Budd, president of Kansas State College at Pittsburg, and James A. McAin, president of Kansas State University at Manhattan, were unavailable for comment, having left for the Board of Regents meeting in Topeka.

He said recreational areas and residence halls would also be built on Campus West.
The University of Kansas must consider its future while planning for its present, R. Keith Lawn, vice chancellor and director of operations and operations, said in an interview recently.
Lawton said a physical master plan had been designed that provided for the removal from the central campus area of those functions using building space which are not used for classroom instruction. They would be relocated in the Campus West area, west of Iwaoka Street.

"I think the need for the orderly management of daily operations is self evident and absolutely necessary," Lawton said.
"Long-range planning is not so self evident or predictable, therefore periodic reassessment of such a plan is necessary to keep it flexible.

Last Town-Gown Encounter Stresses 'Getting Together'
By JOHN GRAM Kansan Staff Writer
"The important thing about our getting together is not the things 'outside' that we're talking about—the Hill, the community and the drugs," it's the fact that we're talking about.

George C. Scott, controversial star who vowed he refuse an Oscar if he won, was given his chance last night when the Motion Picture Academy Awards in "Patterson" paid him his performance in "Patterson."
"Patton" was also named best picture and won six other awards.
Glenda Jackson won best actress honors for her performance in "Women in Love." Next to "Patton's" eight, the highest number of statues going to a single picture was two, and she is now Daughter. "These were for John Mills, best supporting actor, and best cinematographer."
Tumultuous applause greeted the announcement that veteran star Helen Heyen had won the award for best supporting actress for playing the old lady stowaway in "Airport." Like Scott and Miss Jackson, Miss Heyen did not show up to collect the prize.

The dearth of winners at the ceremony has become common over the last few years. Since 1961 only three winners of the best actress award have shown up to accept it: Julie Andrews, Julie Christie and Barbra Streisand.
Periodic special awards were given throughout the presentation to film performers, as well as to Irna Bergman. The Jewel Herbst Humanitarian Award went to Frank Sinatra.

saluted with scenes from "Citizen Kane," "Magnificent Ambersons," "Wild Strawberries" and "Passion of Anna." Both men are working in Europe and accepted on calls.
Melvin Douglas, himself a best actor nominee for "I Never Sang for My Father," introduced Miss Gish and narrated clips from the movie *Way Down East*, crossing of the ice flow in "Way Down East."
In other contests, the screenplay of "M.A.S.H." was honored as the best of those based on another source, and "Woodstock" was named best documentary. The Beats were saluted in a special segment of the film about an Oscar for their scoring of "I'll Be U."
The lone award won by "Love Story," the year's biggest box office hit, was for best musical score. Due to "Patton's" sweep, no other film nominated for best picture won more than one award. One, "Five Easy Pieces," was shut out.

Council Approves Code; Bill Sent to Faculty Senate
By MIKE BROWNLEE Kansan Staff Writer
The new code incorporates a number of statements by the American Association of University Professors which attempt to define the sciences of professional university educators.
The Faculty Council today passed the Code of Faculty Rights, which defines the rights, privileges and responsibilities for members of the KU faculty.
The code will now be sent to the Faculty Senate for approval. If no quorum is reached in the Senate for its passage, the Faculty will be called on to put the code into effect.
The code also specifies the procedures in censuring or firing a member of the faculty. No disciplinary sanctions may be imposed on a faculty member before he is notified of the charges against him and before a hearing is held before the University Judiciary or the Faculty Committee on Tenure and Related Problems.
The code protects professors and students with respect to information about students which the professors acquire through their duties as instructors and counselors. Information received in confidence will remain confidential under the code. This does not include information given to a prospective student or information on aptitude concerning his future occupation.
