Student Senate to encourage interest in fine arts
By PETE WICKLUND Staff Reporter

The Student Senate next week will try to help finance and promote the KU Concert and Chamber Music series. It hopes to inspire at the same time student interest in the arts.
The Senate Cultural Affairs Committee met yesterday afternoon to finalize plans for the 1983 student membership drive for the Swarthout Society — a group of local philanthropists that has helped finance the series since 1980.
Students will be able to help sponsor this year's series, which includes 13
presentations in classical and jazz music or dance.
Jacqueline Davis, director of the series since 1979, stressed the importance of recruiting members for the series. "We did horribly on grants last year."
"We did horribly on grants last year because of the recession and cuts in programs."
The implementation of a corporate board, founded in 1861, which helps the series by seeking donations from industry, was a big help to the Swarthout Society.
"Without it I wouldn't have dared take a chance on bringing the New York City Opera National Company or the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra."
The committee will be conducting membership sales next week in front of Wescoe Hall. Students can become members of the society and will be recognized for their contributions in concert programs and will have a chance to meet artists at special receptions. They will also be invited to special lectures and discussions pertaining to the concerts.
Davis said.
Shari Rogge, cultural affairs chairman, said that the committee will also try to recruit student organization members. Those memberships start at $30.
interest in memberships at the various living groups on campus.
Rogge said that she hoped students would look at the entire scope of the series and not think that classical music was all the series offered.
Besides conducting sales at Wesco, the committee will also try to inspire
"I don't think a lot of people are aware of the variety," Rogge said.
Davis said that Swarthout was working extra hard to publicize the series and the membership drive
Student memberships will be Monday through Friday next week, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in front of Wescue. Student memberships will be available for $10 or more.

By the Kansan Staff
KU students can have a taste of Mexican heritage today at the Kansas Union as part of the activities organized for Mexican Independence Day.
Lawrence elementary and middle school students will perform traditional Mexican dances in the Meadowlock room from noon to 1 p.m. and the Union cafeteria will offer Mexican dishes from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. the sponsor of the activities said yesterday.
Gerry Williams, assistant director
of the office of minority affairs, said a group of students called Los Dammings from St John's School. The group also perform traditional Mexican dances.
Connie Garcia, coordinator of Los Domingos, said the children would wear traditional costumes made by the children's parents.
With the help of a dance instructor from Topeka, the 14 members of Los Domingos learned the traditional dances a year ago. Garcia said,
The children range in age from five to 13 years old and have danced in several events during the last year and a half, she said.
