Optional Plans for Activity Funds Presented to Finance Committee
Following open hearings, the Senate Finance and Auditing Committee adjourned to a closed-door session Monday night to discuss student activity fees and a budget request.
R. L. Bailey, Atchison graduate student and former co-chairman of the Finance and Audit committee, presented a detailed plan for the reorganization of his firm's fees. Bailey said that this radical change was necessary for two reasons, first to "circumvent" some of the more intrusive activities, make the activity fee more valuable,
THE PLAN BAILEY presented first analyzed the present mandatory $21 activity fee that is paid with tuition at enrollment. Approximately half of the $21 goes into athletic Association, according to Bailey. Under his plan, this $6 would be eliminated.
The second part of his proposal stemmed from the activity fee funding of events and organizations that can charge admission, and thus are able to earn their own money. These events would be covered, under Bailey's proposal, by an optional activity ticket.
This ticket, which would cost approximately $7.30 would entitle the purchaser to admission to such things as the KU film Series, most dramatic presentations, the three rock concerts, an innovation to accompany and promote activity ticket sales.
BAILEY ESTIMATED that some 10,000 activity tickets could be sold.
The student organizations which have no means for raising revenue would be funded through voluntary contributions to an organization funds. Bailey said that there should be some way in which students should be able to designate where their contributions are made, and that the senate should retain some control to prevent the elimination of the smaller clubs.
The purpose behind the voluntary contributions funding would be to effectively
circumvent the regents, according to Bailey. "If money came in the form of donations, it would not be state money, thus it would not be subject to regents' approval."
THE ONLY MANDATORY fee that would remain is a $2.50 fee to cover the Kansan subscription and to subsidize student government.
Another proposal came from Tuck Duncan, Wilmett, Illie, siphomore, who suggested that the Senate collect all fees apart from registration and tuition, eliminating regents' control.
MIZE URGED ALL people with any thoughts on student fees to attend the Monday night session which will be the last opportunity to propose changes.
In the closed door session following the hearings, the committee decided to continue the hearings another week. According to John Mize, Salma junior, chairman of Finance and
Audit, next Monday, the committee will again hold open sessions to field all opinions and suggestions concerning the activity fees. All valid proposals which are formally presented will then be combined in an enactment that will call for a student referendum.
Also in the closed session, the committee approved a budget recommendation for Black Veterans on Campus. A $700 budget will be presented for Senate approval.
The budget includes a $400 newsletter

the students.
Ebert Urges Recall of Senators Who Consistently Miss Meetings
Bill Ebert, president of the student body, said Monday that many of the members of the Senate have no concern for the rights and interests of the students they represent. Many of the senators have not been attending the meetings.
Ebert said the Student Senate Executive Committee encouraged those students who are dissatisfied with the lack of concern displayed by their senators to initiate recall actions immediately so that an election can be held in the schools to elect new student senators.

Four More Arrested
Two Cited at Kent For Court Contempt
KENT, Ohio (UPI) - A special county prosecutor and a professor were cited for contempt of court Monday, for publicly spreading the story of violence last spring at Kent State Universities.
At the same time, four more persons were arrested on indictments handed down by the grand jury. Only six of the 25 persons charged have not been arrested.
The four arrested Monday were: Jeffery Hartzler, 21, of Smithville, Ohio, a former student at Kent's Ovilet Academic Center; 19, of Barberton, Ohio, and Michael S. Erikson, 20, of current students at Kent State, and Thomas D. Miller, 21, of Smithville, Ohio, a former winter quarter student at Kent State. They were held on second-degree riot charges in connection with violence that ended last May 4, when the police were shot to death by National Guardsmen.
Seabury H. Ford, a special Portage County prosecutor who aided in the grand jury investigation, and Glenn Frank, a geology professor in North State, were cited for contempt of court.
Frank pleaded guilty to the contempt charge and was released on a $200 personal liability bond.
He asked all persons on campus to "remain calm, and above all do not react in any way that will be detrimental to the welfare of Kent State University.
The contempt of court citation was filed against Seahurst H. Ford, by the Portage County Clerk and sent from a court order which prohibited any persons involved in the grand jury investigation from making public statements or representations about the grand jury's report on its月长任命.
An article last weekend in the Akron beacon Journal included statements stating that the organization's association's executive committee said, if the statements in the article were true, Frank T. Levin would be the plaintiff.
Although Ford said he had been unimpeachable, he pleaded guilty to the contempt charge. Ford was sentenced to bond, pending the outcome of two separate suits which have been filed questioning the driver.
Hartzler, Gerbetz and Miller pleaded innocent. Gerbetz, Miller and Erwin were released on $1,000 bond. Hartzler was ordered to pay $5,000 in previous case involving the illegal sale of drupe.
The arrests brought the total number taken into custody to 17 including eight current students, one non-student, one professor and eight former students.
The grand jury indicted 25 persons on a variety of charges, ranging from first-degree rioting to interfering with a fireman at the Fire No. 1 National Guardkmen were indicted
The meeting has been called by StudEx and will be open to all interested students.
A meeting has been called to discuss the university Senate motion passed Thursday, which eliminated the regulation requiring student membership on all policy making, school and departmental committees. It will convene at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday in Room 609.
Denial of Student Voice Questioned by StudEx
Agnew Pleases Carolinians With Pro-South Court Plea
"Richard Nixon then determined to achieve a better ideological and geographical balance on the Supreme Court," Agnew told a cheering GOP rally in the hometown of U.S. Washington. Clement F. Haynsworth, whose appointment as Supreme Court was rejected by the Senate.
"His resolution to achieve that balance will never waver despite those radical liberals who have vowed to end the war."
"Judge Haynsworth was plainly the victim of anti-Southern bias," said Agnew. "But our pledge was and still is that this administration will appoint and will see construc-tion on the Supreme Court. Yon and Carolina will see that pledge redeemed."
Agnew's pledge was the first such promise made by the administration since the Senate last spring rejected the Supreme Court apop-
tion of a second southerner, G. Harold *carrill*
A crowd of 6,000 in Greenville interrupted Agnew's speech 22 times for applause. The loudest cheers were voiced for his Supreme Court comment and his statement that the Nixon administration "fatly opposes compulsory busing solely for racial balance."
wholeheartedly believe in the neighborhood concept and this administration takes action.
“If this year we retire just a handful of those radical liberals—and I've been preaching that from coast to coast—we have a strict constructionist from the South with a sense of whether Birsty Bach and Ted Kennedy like it or not.” Agnew said in his Raleigh statement.
Jesse Jackson Calls Convictions In Wichita 'Mockery of System'

The rally, a fund raising event for the defense of the 'Wichita Nine,' attracted about 2,000 persons to the Memorial Hall here.
Jackson, called the convictions a mackery of the system because the men were not truly criminals.
The nine men, one of whom was found innocent, were charged in connection with the killing of a model boat and forcing by threats of two Model City officials in Wichita to write them a complaint.
Leonard Harrison, director of the Ballard Community center in Lawrence and one time assistant to Herman D. Lujan, associate attorney at Cordray U.S., was one of the men convicted in the case.
Earlier this year, Harrison said he was recommended to lecture again at KU, but was turned down by administrators. The eight judges appealing the convictions to higher courts.
Jackson said the real threat in Kansas is not to the black men, but to democracy itself.
He said that when black men sought jobs they were not termed peers with white men. They were, when the nine were tried by an all白人 judge, they suddenly gained white persons as peers.
"It means that the system is mocking democracy—it is mocking the people," he said.

Unrest Led to Study of KU Military Training
Student discontent with ROTC began to manifest itself at the University of Kansas during 1967 or even 1966, according to William Ballour, vice chancellor for student affairs.
Two of the demonstrations were not peaceful. In the spring of 1969, the chancellor's review, the ROTC version of an agreement, was signed in November 1970, the Military Science Building was stoned. Colonel Philip Riedel, head of AROTC, saw the latter incident as being more "a reaction to Kent State and the Cambodia genocide" an action against the principles of ROTC.
The protests were against all sorts of military recruiting, which included Officer Candidate School (OCS) in addition to ROTC, and was part of a general unhappiness with the war. ROTC was a "symbol on campus of military authority," he said.
IN FALL 1968 a faculty committee to examine the question of officer training on campus was established as a result of the early peaceful demonstrations, according to Frank Zim, St. Louis senior and presiding University Council and the University Senate.
mending the establishment of a temporary committee to examine such matters as military course content and to identify and examine the instructors.
Analysis
In fall 1969 the committee presented its report to the University Senate, recomm
That to the greatest extent possible, regular academic courses be substituted for existing ROTC courses in order to provide for students in academic materials by academic departments.
The temporary ROTC committee was given until September 1971 to present its recommendations, which were to be arrived at through autonomous investigation. Zilin said.
THIS COMMITTEE submitted its report and recommendations early, and last Thursday the University Senate expressed its approval of the work by passing the recommendations and directing that they be acted upon.
That attached to each substitute course there is a military science course or section taught as part of the purpose of providing the "contact hours" basic to meeting the professional needs of the student.
The recommendations:
That when course substitution is not possible, the KOCT course be-learned by multitasking.
Last Thursday, the University Senate approved a report by its temporary committee on ROTC that recommended several changes in course structure and curriculum. However, was overshadowed by the reequalization of a section of the University Rules and
structors
Where appropriate and workable, the joint appointment of faculty in both military science is recommended. Such joint appointments include both the appointment of military science, instructors in academic departments or military science department, instructors in military science department.
Regulations requiring 20 per cent student representation on policy-making groups of the university. The Kansan here presents some background on the issue of HOTC and the temporary committee's recommendations.
THE COMMITTEE also recommended the establishment of a permanent 'ROTC Center' to provide students with a coordinate the actual integration of the courses and the operation of the integrated curriculum. This committee will be appointed by the college dean as chancellor for academic affairs and should be
made up of faculty members and students. Under the new code "contact hours" will not count as credit. The report defines these hours as "the periods during which the potential junior officer is brought into contact with the representatives of the service and exposed to the organizational structure and operational modes of that branch of the profession." These hours are such activities as leadership laboratory, drills and marksmanship.
Rieided points out that this ruling is not new. These hours have never been available for students who do not have a necessary adjunct to receiving credit for the academic courses which makes their status vulnerable.
"You don't get credit for it, but you don't get any credits if you don't take it," he says.
He expressed the belief that "some of the drills possibly shouldn't be on camp," suggesting that they would be more suitable for the summer camp.
SMITH SAYS that in addition to receiving
HE THINKS the new plan is a good one and will tend to integrate ROTC into the campus and make it more compatible with the academic aims of the University.
He explains that the University sets high academic standards for military instructors. At least a bachelor's degree and eight years' education are required. Smith says that all commanding officers have been to the Command General Staff School and that the services are sending "the best officers they can provide." He stands by commanding officers with very few exceptions.
As far as control of the program is concerned, the University has always had the right to pass judgement on military instructors and each school has the option of offering courses for credit George Smith, vice president for institutional planning, says.
reports on every instructor and either accepting or rejecting him the University is taking reviews of the commanding officers' military records, their permanent military records. He says he assumes that these dues will be taken over to administer ROTC affairs.
Riedel does not anticipate a great change in procedure as a result of the report by the temporary committee, of which he was a member for nine months. He views the new plan as a step forward and is eager to begin the arrangements involved in establishing the new board, so that it can be submitted by March 1971 and implementation by fall 1971.
He says many of the ROTC courses will not be absorbed easily into other departments. The ROTC program is already engaged in a system resembling team teaching in its extensive use of guest lecturers from around campus. Under the new program Riedel this infusx of University professors will become more formalized and more frequent.
HALF FOUR AND Smith struggle as far as a review is concerned. Fourth of four thanks that the book is the UNREST.
