restore 10 of the 21 graduate teaching positions eliminated in the summer of 1982, when Carlin sliced $14.2 million from the Regents budget to avert a fiscal crisis.
The Senate plan differs little from the House-approved bill — both call for a 7 percent salary increase for unclassified employees and restoration of $2 million to the base budgets of the Regents schools. Unclassified employees include faculty members.
Carlin had asked for a 6 per share raise in unclassified salaries, in part financed by a $1.9 million loan.
THE BASE BUGET CUT would have represented the elimination of 86 employee positions, Regents officials have said, including 19 at KU.
The Senate bill would increase money for other operating expenses at the universities by 8 percent, instead of the 5 percent increase in tuition burden and the 6 percent recommended by the House.
Under the Senate bill, student salaries would be raised by 7 percent, which is 2 percent more than Carlin had proposed. Also included in the bill is a 7 percent increase in funds for utilities.
Salaries of classified employees, such as secretaries and maintenance workers, will be
dealt with in a seperate bill.
State Sen. Paul Hess, R-Wichita, said the increase in operating expenses was important.
"THIS AREA HAS probably hindered the growth and development of the Regents system as much as anything." Hess said. "This money goes into all areas except utilities and salaries, and will be used on libraries and buying equipment."
Because of a decline in enrollment at Emporia State University, the university would lose 157,863, of which $92,926 would be reduced from sales and the balance from other operating expenses.
However, Wichita State University increased its enrollment and would receive $772,201 more than last year. Of the amount, $679,098 would be used for salaries, and the remainder for other operating expenses. Both the House and the governor recommended the same steps.
Stephan continued from p. 1
Under the Senate bill, each of the other Regents schools would receive the following amounts: Fort Hays State University $25.5 million; Kansas State University, $151.3 million; Emporia State University, $25 million; Pittsburgh State University, $23 million; Wichita State University, $60.3 million; and Kansas Technical Institute at Salina, $3.6 million.
"But I think he needs to do more than send out a questionnaire."
HESS CHARGED THAT the three legislators who wrote the letters were setting up a "smokescreen" designed to kill the drinking age bill.
"Some people who don't want to raise the drinking age will go to any extent to try to defeat
At the committee meeting yesterday, the five other members of the conference committee denied that they had secretly re-written the drinking age bill.
Hess said that the conference committee had never met before yesterday.
Miller said that the bill had been widely discussed among legislators. But such discussions were common, especially for controversial bills, he said.
"There has been a lot of discussion," he said.
I might even call it negotiation. But that is not unusual.
The members of the conference committee
said that they had circulated the committee report among themselves, but that no more than two members had discussed the bill together.
IN THIS CASE, the Open Meetings Act prohibits any three or more members of the conference committee from discussing committee business in private.
The conference committee will meet tomorrow at 12:30 p.m. Gannon said that he had not invited to the meeting or informed of the starting time.
The drinking age bill is a hold over measure that was not passed during the 1983 session. The measure in the form that was sent to the conference committee has raised the drinking age to 21 for all liquor.
The House and Senate could not agree on a final version of the bill during the last weeks of the 1983 Legislature. Both houses appointed the committee, but still could not work out a compromise.
Shephard testified that after Patino's left hand had been placed in a handcuff, he struggled to prevent the other hand from being placed in a handcuff because he had not yet been read his crimes. Shephard and Patino testified that a scuffle ensued and that Patino was forced to his knees.
Patino replied that he did not think that Cobb had said "erratic."

Patino testified that Cobb's blows split spitches on his lip that he had received after an injury to the jaw.
They also testified that Cobb then struck Patino in the mouth with a metal flashlight.
Although Shepard and Cobb administered several sobriety tests on Patino at the scene, Shepard said, no breath-analysis test was performed.
PATINO TESTIFIED that he had had one glass of wine earlier in the evening and one drink
Patino said that because he did not then speak English fluently, the sobriety tests were difficult because he misinterpreted some of the questions.
Patino, who said he had received limited instruction in English before the incident, responded by spelling his name after Cobb asked him to recite the alphabet.
After he was read his rights and strapped into the passenger side of the patrol car with a seat belt, Patino said, he was having trouble breathing because of bleeding from his nase and mouth. He said he asked Cobb to roll down the window for air.
Shepard, who was standing on the passenger side of the car, said he then heard them exchange obscences and saw Cobb hit Patino in the mouth about three times with the back of her
Patino testified that he said, "This is incredible. I can't believe it is happening to me." He added, "I bought cobbls. This
A third officer, Richard Nickell, then came to the scene and forced Patino in the back seat and
Patino said he continued to spit blood on the floor and wipe his mouth on the seat because "in
my mind, it was the only way that I had to prove what had happened to me that night. I didn't know what was going to happen to me. That way someone could see the blood on the windshield, on the seat and on the floor."
SEVERAL OTHER WITNESSES for the plaintiff testified yesterday.
Moreano testified that he had suggested that Patino go to Trinity emergency room for X-rams of his jaw and spine. The X-rams did not show any fractures or abnormalities, he said.
Ermando Moreano, a physician from Trinity Hospital in Independence, Mo., testified that Patino's lips and hands were bruised and swollen when he examined Patino a day after the attack. He also said that Patino's legs were bruised and that that he had a broken blood vessel in his eye.
Three pictures taken a day after the arrest were admitted as evidence and distributed to the jury. A medical bill was also admitted as evidence.
The trial will continue today, with testimony from the defense as well as the plaintiff.
Senate says no to membership list request
By CINDY HOLM
Staff Reporter
The Student Senate last night passed a resolution prohibiting the Senate Finance Committee from requesting membership lists or student organizations asking for Senate fund
The committee decided March 21 to require the lists after one member of the committee asked the Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas for a list of members.
The committee reconsidered and tabled the proposal Thursday, pending the investigation of
Jon Gilmarch, chairman of the committee, said they had rescinded the proposal on the advice of the commission.
in asking for the lists was to reject funds for one or more organizations.
"The list isn't to verify numbers." Walker
said. "It is a tactic to show who is a member of
GLOSH."
The office issued a statement that said the committee had the right to verify the number of members in an organization but advised against doing so through membership lists.
But Gilchrist said the committee did not know it would infringe on the rights of the organizations by asking for the lists.
"Our request was not intended to harass anyone," he said. "We just wanted to verify as much information on the budget form as we could."
Speaking in favor of the resolution, Robert Walker, School of Social Welfare semester, said: "We have to work together. We need to work together."
Glen Elmer, special student senator and an author of the resolution, said the resolution was not intended to implicate the Finance Committee of discrimination. He said the committee's actions had created a perception of discriminatory that made people afraid to join the groups.
In other action, the Senate:
*passed a resolution opposing the limitation of setting the guests of the opposite sex to KU接待
appropriate federal money to the state scholarship program.
- passed a resolution declaring April 7 International Day at the University of Kansas
- passed a resolution urging the Kansas House of Representatives and the Kansas Senate to
- passed a resolution commending Head
Basketball Coach Larry Brown, and the KU men's
athletics team.
