Walker doesn't file for new election
By CINDY HOLM Staff Reporter

Kevin Walker, a presidential candidate last fall, did not file Friday for the new student body presidential election that resulted from an appeal by his Momentum Coalition.
Walker declined comment except to say that he was not planning to run. He is the third presidential candidate from last fall who didn't file.
In a prepared statement released Friday, Walker said his priorities were his wife and two children, his education and his desire to enter law school.
"With these priorities in mind," he said, "will be very difficult, too expensive and, too
time-consuming to involve myself in another campaign at the expense of family and our privacy, which has been violated too many times.
In December, Charles Lawnhorn, Kansas City, ban, senior, filed an appeal on Walker's behalf to the University of Kansas Judicial Board protesting the November election. The appeal asked the board to declare Walker the winner of the election or to call for a new election that would include Momentum on the ballot.
On Jan. 5, Chancellor Gene A. Budig called
"In the last two years, Momentum has done exactly what we originally set out to do and that is to let the student body know that Student Records are to be made to manipulative incumbents and vote fraud."
for a new election.
for a new election.
Walker's name had been left off the ballot because he could not confirm his enrollment by the filing deadline, Oct. 17. The Student Senate rules require confirmation of enrollment on the declaration of candidacy forms.
Two other candidates who ran in the November election have said they would not run in the new election.
Scott Swenson, who ran as Priority Coalition's presidential candidate, announced Thursday that he would not run in the new election.
Steve Bergstrom, who ran as Freedom Coalition's presidential candidate, said Friday that he had decided not to run because the whole election process had been smeared by the problems.

himself and Brown be discussed, as well as the issues raised by those letters.
NORMAN SAU, chairman of the history department, said that several issues needed to be addressed in such a forum. He declined to elaborate, but said he didn't think there were any significant problems between the faculty and the athletic department.
Saul was one of the professors who received a copy of Katzman's letter and Brown's response.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, said that the University already had addressed many of the issues dealing with student athletes and academics.
Last February, several athletic department administrators, professors and athletes participated in a public forum titled "The Role of the Athlete in the Academic Community."
Fewer than 15 people attended the forum in the Frank R. Burge Union.
However, Ambler said he would support a new forum if the present controversy raised new issues.
One issue that needs clarification, Amber said, is the rights and responsibilities of student athletes. He said that the controversy between Katzman and Brown showed that student athletes often were unsure how to deal with academic disputes.
JAMES CAROTHERS, chairman of SenEx, said that the forum was an interesting idea. He knew of no specific plans by SenEx, however, to conduct such a forum.
Norman Yetman, the chairman of the Academic Support Committee of the University
of Kansas Athletic Corp., said that a forum was needed, but that at the moment the atmosphere was too emotionally charged for it to be productive.
"It should not come at a time when there is such a divisive issue," he said. "It should address the broader issues behind the controversy."
One reason that discussion is needed, he said, is to lessen the level of animosity between the athletic department and faculty members.
Yetman proposed that the issues eventually be raised at the University Forum, a weekly series of lectures sponsored by the Ecumenical Christian Ministries Center. 1204 Acre Ave. Waiss, a university Forum board member, said his organization was considering the idea.
called the Senate office and found out that only one candidate had filed.
Filing continued from p. 1
"After seeing how things have been running," Philip Duff said, "we thought the Senate needed assistance."
Before the 5 p.m. filing deadline, Philip Duff said, they collected the 500 signatures that they needed.
The Duffs are running as independents without coalition ties.
"It's just us running," Philip Duff said. "We're not claiming to be anybody else."
Bob Swain, Topeka junior, will run for president with vice presidential candidate Robb
Murphy, Washington, Iowa, junior, on the
Apathy — I Just Doesn't Matter ticket.
"I'm fed up with the circus that happened last semester," Murphy said. "It's a big joke and we don't want to live there."
Murphy said that he didn't really expect to win but that his coalition's name was a social movement.
The Student Senate has had so many rinky-link issues, he said. You could be a candidate for the office.
However, he said, if the Apathy — It Just Doesn't Matter candidates are elected, they will hold their own.

government and has demanded abrogation of a May 17 Lebanese-Israeli accord.
THE LEBANESE ARMY fought a fourth straight day of clashes in south Beirut with Shiite Muslim militiamen, who were backed by the army. They were also based in the mountains overlooking the capitals.
EARLIER, GEMAYEL immediately accepted the resignations of Wazran and his Cabinet, which came in response to appeals from Syrian-backed Muslim rebels. But they appeared to have little effect on the escalating battles.
Members of the 1,200-man Marine peace-keeping contingent fought a brief small arms encampment in the afternoon with Muslim militants. Brooks said. There were no reports of American casualties.
An estimated 150 people have died and 561 were wounded in the fighting since The Red Cross and its allies compiled from the Red Cross, hospitals and other sources. No official government figures were available.
The Lebanese army announced that 20 soldiers and 16 officers had been killed and 197 others wounded.

Others suggested limiting the number of students who could be in the room at one time using art materials that emit toxic fumes. Other teachers had used a spray room with an outside wall into a spraying room.
"You can smell laquer and fixitive all over the building," a secretary said during the meeting. I came in on a Saturday once my office was closed. I walked in, worked out. Sometimes I get three-day headaches.
