Page 6 University Daily Kansan, September 15, 1983 Democrats fight for top spot By United Press International TOPEKA — Gov. John Carlin plans to spend the week talking to Democrats in an effort to his support for his choice for state party chairman, but many leading members of the party are not revealing their preference. The current conflict is a "political disagreement over process" how the state committee should be run, who the key people should be and how these key people should be selected," Myran Roe, administrative aide to Ree. Dan Glickman, D-Kan., said yesterday in Wichita. "The party is going through a difficult time right now in trying to reorganize," said Roe, who has been active in Democratic Party politics for more than 40 years and back together again and that we'll be in good shape for the 1984 elections." THE 131 MEMBERS of the state' committee will meet Saturday in Hutchinson to select a replacement for Mr. Moore, who would be resigned as chairman. "Prior to this weekend, the governor and most everyone else was assuming that Larry Gates was the only candidate for the position," Bill Hoch, Carlin's chief of staff, said yesterday. "Pat Lehman's efforts have stimulated the governor to get involved and do what he can for Larry." Gates, a 35-year-old Overland Park attorney, currently is state party treasurer. Ms. Lehman, a 40-year-old aircraft industry toolmaker in Wichita and vice chairman of the party, is making the first challenge to the governor's choice since Carlin was elected in 1978. When asked if Ms. Lehman's entrance into the race caused a split in the party, Hoch said, "I think that that's hard to sav. "I don't think it revolves exclusively around presidential politics. That's only a small portion for the reason for this contest. It is not Glenn-Mondale Carlin is chairman of Ohio Sen. John Glenn's presidential campaign in Kansas, while many Kansas Democrats support former Vice President Mon- HOCH SAID CARLIN had scheduled meetings "on a short notice basis" with Democrats in the 3rd and 4th congressional districts. He also worked with party leaders in the 2nd District. A spokesman for Attorney General Robert Stephan said yesterday his office had not received a request from the Republican, D-Doptao, regarding the election. Hensley said he would ask the attorney general whether Ms. Lehman should automatically move to the post since she now is vice chairman. Minks freed by animal lovers embark on vicious rampage SOUTHEND, England — Animal lovers who released hundreds of caged minks forgot that the animals tend to get a little rough when roaming free. The minks started a regular blood-bath, killing chickens, ducks, pheasants, pets and each other, officials said yesterday. Farmers with shotguns, police and Agriculture Ministry officials Tuesday joined the hunt to round up the minks in Suffolk, northeast of London. "They are vicious and even likely to attack people if cornered," a ministry official warned. Officials said only about 400 made it into the surrounding countryside but that was bad enough. that was so close. Police warned residents not to approach any mink, noting it could easily bite off a human finger. The Animal Liberation Front claimed responsibility for cutting holes in security fences at two farms, thus making it possible for up to 3,000 animals to escape. Peter Edleston, one of the mink owners, denounced the raids, carried out by masked men. "No one can tell me these Animal Liberation people are animal lovers." he said. "These creatures are now being hunted down and many of them have died under the wheels of cars and lorries." The Animal Liberation Front has claimed responsibility for several raids in the past, releasing animals used for experiments and research.

The University Senate Executive Committee postponed direct action yesterday on the proposed program discontinuance policy until it had studied the proposal for possible revisions. SenEX members will meet for a senex session on the issue Money afterward. Program discontinuance may be revised Sen Ex delays action on program plan Staff Reporter By DONNA WOODS Staff Reporter JAMES CAROTHERS, SenEx chairman, said that although he had hoped the committee would be able to decide yesterday to call a Senate meeting, it was necessary for SenEx to reach a consensus about the policy first. "It is much more important that we "act promptly," than act promptly, or gather, with undisciplined Charles Kahn, professor of architecture and urban design, said that SenEx needed to completely agree with the university's plan to support the University Senate for discussion. David Shulenburger, chairman of the temporary committee responsible for drafting the proposal, said administration officials had noted two reservations with the proposal. Shulenburger said that Deanell Tacha, vice chancellor for academic affairs, was concerned that program discontinuance would only be initiated in the fall semester. She was also about the notion of severance pay or demised faculty members affected by a discontinued program, he said. Carothers said any action should be initiated and completed within one hour. One reason, he said, is that the SenEx committee that receives recommendations for program discontinuance, Academic Policies and Procedures, changes members between May and August. THE PROPOSAL DOES not provide severance pay, Carothers said. Severance pay is receiving wages regardless of whether a faculty member is working. The current SenEx proposal states, "Faculty on continuous tenured appointments who are scheduled for dismissal for reasons of Program Discontinuance will be retained for the years in which their programs are being phased out . . . and will receive their salaries for at least two academic years. Faculty on continuous tenured dismissal whether or not they are continued in their previous duties at the institution." Without revisions to the policy, Carothers said, faculty members would be working, although their jobs would not necessarily be the same as before. Kahn said he was still concerned about its impact in programs that are distracting. Freshmen All interested in filing for freshman class officers pick up applications at BOCO office 110B Union.
