There is such a thing as unorthodox car design, but this is a bit much.
Actually, this is a complex problem a trained transportation engineer might have difficulty solving, but not the naturally creative art of painting. It requires artists to paint the paintings' final destination. Tail-gaters have been making extremely accurate guesses of the content and meaning of the paintings' final destination.
'Will Protect Academic Freedom'
Rome Speaks to Law Students
By ALAN SIMONS
Kansan Staff Writer
Richard Rome, Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, said Tuesday in a Student Association that he is in the liquor-by-the-drink and tax lid amendments, and voiced his opinions on academic enforcement at rock festivals.
Rome said that the taxes on the sale of drinks which would be the passing of the liquor by-the-drink would provide an alternate source of revenue for legislature funding other than personal and tax relief. Rome said bettings would be another alternative source of revenue, he said.
The tax lid, Rome said, would reduce or get the money to the people.
Rome said the tax lid amendment would put a limit on the amount of taxes to be collected and the amount in the state tax base. If existing tax laws were amended, no local unit covered by law could collect taxes in excess of the tax base for operational expenses could not be increased each year for the next three years by more than five per cent of the previous year's total being an inflation factor, he said.
An absolute limit would be placed on property tax by the tax lid. Rome said. Inflation would not be considered directly. However, an increase in property tax could reflect itself in the amount of tax that would be collected on that property.
Home said the tax lid would not affect the interest on bonds, and it would reduce welfare programs and junior welfare expenditures. Therefore, if a school needed new facilities, and had no funds to provide them were needed, the school board could appeal to the State Board of Education to increase in their budget, he said.
If a county or city did not wish to have the tax lid used within their tax systems, there would be problems. It would also institute an alternative policy Rome said. The city could agree by a referendum approved by the voters to impose on themselves a two per cent income tax or a one per cent property tax.
The tax lid, Rome said, would ease the strain put on the economic plight of the working class by inflation.
Rome questioned some's solution to what they consider the main problem of purging the campus of those who exposed violence diss—as the governor did.
"Academic freedom must be upheld," he said.
Referring to Angela Davis, avowed communist who was fired from her teaching position and said, "I would tell her teach."
Rome said that he would more readily prosecute someone who was a victim of the bingo game than he would someone involved in an illegal bingo game or lot-

Child Care Centers Discussed By 'Second Wave of Feminism'
Child care centers related to women's economic discrimination were one aspect of the women's movement discussed at the "Economic Justice" workshop in the "Second Wave of Feminism" series at a p.m. Tuesday.
Emin Kelly, dean of women, and Frances Horowitz, professor of
Biblical Literature, sponsored by the University of
Kansas Commission on the Status of Women.
Dean Taylor and Mrs. Horowitz debated the aspects of women's equality with special application to day care centers.
Mrs. Horowitz explained that day care centers are definitely a way of raising women from the household, but are not always beneficial for the child.
Profit making franchised day care centers are currently being built around the country. These centers, Mrs. Horowitz said, are the ones that can be harmful to a child because these would shift personnel more often than someone coming into the home.
Mrs. Horowitz explained that the working mother must investigate these different child care centers to suit her needs.
The next "Second Wave of Feminism" workshops will be scheduled Wednesday.
They are "The Revolt of Women in National Professionalism" p. 1 m. in Oliver Hall and "The Evolution of the Female Personality."
