Schol halls to get directors of same sex
By WARREN BRIDGES Staff Reporter
A decision announced this week by the office of residential programs would prohibit hiring males as female graduate school halls, and vice versa.
The decision will take effect at the end of this semester.
At the beginning of this semester, two of the four male scholarship halls had women directors and one of the four female halls had a male director.
Joyce CHIF, assistant director of residential programs, said yesterday that the move would not adversely affect a selection of scholarship hall directors.
"We have a number of excellent candidates for next year," Cliff said. "And we have several for each position." Mr. Roehl suggested affecting the hire of qualified directors."
THE DECISION follows a recent incident in which a male director resigned after he became engaged to a woman in his hall.
Vince Conner, Colorado Springs,
Colo., graduate student and former
resident director of Miller Hall, an
all-female hall, said Monday that he
had resigned Feb. 19, after his engagement.
Conner said he did not know whether his engagement led to the decision of the residential programme office, but he felt he thought that the decision was unwise.
"There is no need to change the policy," Conner said. "In my situation, there was a conflict of interest, but I will continue to take when you hire a resident director."
A replacement for Conner has been naked, but officials declined to release the image.
president of Miller Hall, said she had mixed feelings about the decision.
Nancy Nelson, Concordia senior and
"I UNDERSTAND WHY the office did it," she said. "But I also know that the girls here were comfortable with Vince, and I know the residents of the other two halls with directors of the ice cream are happy with their situation."
Cliff said the decision was a "general philosophy change in the hills."
She said that the decision had been considered since the beginning of the year and had nothing to do with Conner.
"That was a personnel change and was unrelated to the decision." C4H4
Brenda Stockman, Maple Hill senior and president of the All Scholarship Hall Council, said that the decision was made to affirm the selection of qualified applicants.
Andrea Romine, Paola graduate student and resident director of Grace
Pearson Hall, an all-male hall, said the decision had both good and bad results.
She said she had benefited from being the resident director of an all-male ball.
"I HAVE GAINED a lot here," Romine said. "And I think the men here have learned to see women in a new light.
"People tell me living with 50 guys is the greatest job in the world. And I am."
Romine said she did not think the office's decision would decrease the value of the bonds.
Scott Long, Cunningham junior and a resident of Grace Pearson, said that applicants for director now are judged solely on their qualifications and not their sex, and he hoped that would not change.
"IM CONCERNED that future applicants may not be accepted, even though they may be qualified for the position," he said.
Debate team given bid to nationals
A University of Kansas debate team has been given an automatic bid to the National Debate Tournament, the KU forensics director said yesterday.
Donn Parson, the director, said that KU's team of Mark Gidley, Houston senior, and Rodger Payne, Sand Springs, Okla., senior, was given a bid because the team ranked among the top 16 teams in the country.
Parson said the rankings were based on a team's overall record.
At the KU Heart of America tournament last weekend, Gidley and Payne were the only undefeated team after the preliminary rounds, but they did not advance to elimination rounds because KU was the host team.
Fifty-two teams from 40 schools,
representing 23 states, participated in
the state tournament.
GIDLEY ALSO WON the first-place speaker award at the Harvard and the Heart of America tournaments.
rayne was the third-place speaker at the Harvard and Georgetown tournaments.
Gidley and Payne are the 43rd KU team to attend the National Debate Tournament. Parson said.
He also said that no other school had sent as many teams to the tournament
The national tournament will be from March 30 to April 5 at Colorado College in Colorado Springs.

City to write request for preservation grant
By JOHN HOOGESTEGER
Staff Reporter
The Lawrence City Commission last night directed the city staff to write a grant application for money to conduct a historical preservation study.
Arley Allen, chairman of the city's Historical Preservation Committee, urged the commission to take the time to develop the grant application properly so that no problems would arise later.
Lawrence is one of four cities in the state whose plan for spending the money met federal guidelines. Federal dollars went to the city for the study amounts to $20,000.
"THE STATE HISTORICAL department could use the information later on to the disadvantage of the city authorities, and properly written and received," he said.
Commissioner Don Binns, a candidate in yesterday's primary election, left the meeting during a lengthy period of the historical preservation grant.
"Hell, they're deliberately dragging this thing out to give Marci a forum to sound off. I got tired of listening to it," he said.
The grant would provide money to survey parts of Lawrence to determine the historical value of various buildings, provide the city with historical data and help the city decide what to do about historical preservation.
The commission also agreed to use
Community Development funds from 1981 to finance the city's part in the survey. The city has to produce $6,000 in matching funds to get the grant.
The grant would run from July 1, 1983, to June 30, 1984, and would coincide with creation of a statewide comprehensive preservation plan.
THE COMMISSION also voted to hold a joint city commission and planning commission meeting on March 14 concerning downtown redevelopment. At a public meeting at 7 tonight at City Hall, the city's developer, Sizerel Reality Co. Inc. of Kenner, La., will present the redevelopment proposal. The commission is expected to make a decision about the proposal at the March 22 city commission meeting.
In other action, the commission approved on first reading three reapplications.
A request to rezone a portion of a 10-acre tract near the southwest corner of Crestline Drive and Clinton Parkway will be voted to vote. Two commissioners abstained.
Mayor Marco Francisco said that she hoped the commission's action did not indicate that it thought the entire lot belonged to multiple-family use, only a part of it.
THE COMMISSION deferred second reading of the ordinance until March 22.
The city commission will not meet next week but will meet March 15.
