figure, although it had a record high on-campus headcount.
At K-State, both on and off-campus enrollment dropped, said R Carlhoff, editor for news of the college.
He gave no reason for the decrease and said that because the drop was slight, K-State had to give up.
Rochat said K-State's on-campus figure was down less than 2 percent.
BUT ROCHAT said off-campus enrollment had declined by 6 percent.
Because of regional guidelines set by the Regents two years ago, he said. K-State cannot offer as many classes as it used to in highly urban areas such as Kansas City and Wichita.
Although K-State offers classes in Topeka, Roach said, its enrollment there is offset by KU, Emporia State and the Kansas Technological Institute, which also serve the area.
Wayne Davenport, university director of public affairs and information at Pittsburgh State, said Pittsburg State's part-time enrollees did not go off-campus and women students, had dropped
BUT HARD times, he said, had prevented many students who needed to commute to the university from enrolling. Pittsburgh State traditionally has drawn many commuters.
Davenport said he was unsure of the reason for the drop in women students.
One Regents school that is happier than most with its enrollment figures is Fort Hays State. Although its FTE went down, its headcount went up, meaning that more students are enrolled at the university than last spring but are taking fewer hours.
Jim Forsythe, dean of the graduate school at Fort Hays State, said the headcount increase could be attributed almost solely to an increase of graduate students.
FORSTYTHE SAID the university had tried especially hard to recruit graduate students this

nor use it for an opening in future environments. But Paul Kinaid, director of information services at Emporia State, said that Emporia State president John Visser had set a goal for the university at least to increase its enrollment by 300 next fall by using campaigns and brochures.
"I don't know if that's a unique feeling to Chancellor Budig," he said. "I don't think the Legislature is insensitive to it, with limited funds available."

SHRIVER SAID that all the people the committee met with were concerned about the University's ability to maintain a good academic reputation despite budget constraints.
The students and faculty were especially concerned about the effect of budget reductions on library acquisitions, equipment and supplies, be said.
Buddy said Watson Library had been forced to cut thousands of magazine and journal subscriptions.
Moreover, he said, KU does not have enough money to operate two computers which it would like to use.
Lisa Ashner, student body president, told the subcommittee that she was worried by the proliferation of special fees to students, which could be on in areas such as chemistry and engineering.
The SIE SAID SHE wanted the University and the Legislature to agree on a constant percentage of
the budget that student fees would support.
Student come to KU planning on paying only
Scott Swenson, Associated Students of Kansas director, told the subcommittee that reducing the state scholarship program at the same time and reducing the were rising by 20 percent was unfair to students.
The Board of Regents is considering reducing the maximum stipend for state scholarship recipients from $500 to $300 because federal support of the program has been cut by $200,000.
SUZANNE CUPP, Classified Senate president, told the legislators that KU classified employees were worried about a bill in the Senate that could require state employees to pay a premium for health insurance. State employees who are single now receive free full coverage.
She said the subcommittee members told her that the Legislature would not be able to restore merit pay increases for classified employees this year and would be removed by Carlin from the budget last spring.
The subcommittee members said that merit increases would be delayed until the economy recovers.

Headcount figures for last spring and this spring are charted here, along with the number of students gained or lost and the percentage of change in enrollment. Enrollment at the College of Health Sciences increased from 2,410 to 2,452, but was not included in the KU figure because many students at the College also are enrolled on the Lawrence campus.
Early prison release granted to terminally ill Nick Civella
By United Press International
KANAS CITY, Mo. — The U.S. Polee Commission in Washington yesterday granted early prison release for repurposed organized crime boss Nick Civella, whose legal counsel and attorney were killed.
Attorneys for 70-year-old Civilea say their client is suffering from terminal lung cancer and has less than two weeks to live. They had asked the commission to release Civilea on an early parole in order to let the reputed mob leader be private medical attention and to "die in dignity."
A SPOKEMAN for the U.S. Justice Department said Civella would be released today, more than a year and a half earlier than scheduled.
from the Medical Center for Federal Prisoners at Springfield have not been successful, either before the commission or before a federal judge.
Civella has served 20 months of a four-year sentence for conspiracy to hribe a federal prison
Civella's past requests for immediate release
If the commission had not acted to release Civella, his mandatory release date would have been July 10, 1984, said Tom Stewart, associate public affairs for the U.S. Justice Department.

Civella's attorneys began trying to obtain their client's early release in September, after a cancerous egg-shaped mass was found in his lung.
THE REQUEST for immediate release was denied in November by U.S. District Judge Scott Wright, who ruled he did not have jurisdiction in the matter.

IN DODGE CITY, Country Club members spent the cocktail hour and beyond sipping Hawkeye martins and Hot Lips peach daiquiris. It was "M*A*S*H*日" at Bethany College in Lindsborough, where the trumpet instructors dressed up for a Klinger look-alike party.
In Salina, a former M*A*S*H doctor remembered disarming a wounded Korean child, operating for 72 hours at a stretch and building an artificial kidney.
Although it sounds like something Hawkwee or B.J. might do, Maurice Connolly did them all while commanding the 807th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital during the Korean War.
Connolly served as an adviser for three segments of the show. One show required disair
"There was a Korean child who had a grenade hidden in his pants," Crony recalled of a life-lice incident. "While we were treating him, he got the grenade out and pulled the pin.
"I reacted like you would have reacted. You see, you just hold down on the top there and you can put the pin back in. It was just a little tense, tough, waiting for the rest of the staff to find the needle."
CONNELLY WELL remembers the day he arrived at his unit, which included 17 doctors, 17 nurses, 20 enlisted men and 400 Koreans. He was the lieutenant colonel in command.
"I had just settled down and Radio Moscow came on," he said. "Well, I didn't want to listen to it but a couple of he guys told me, 'Oh, everyone does.'"
"Well, this beautiful American voice came on the air and said, 'Welcome to the front. Col. Connolly. We hope you have a good time. Don't worry about your wife or children in Minneapolis, Kan. We're watching them for you. We'll take good care of them.'
"I don't mind telling you that scared me to death."
Although he was invited to a “M*A*S*A*N*bash” in Salina, he said he preferred to stay at home so he could tape the final segment. Some information for this story was supplied
