Molly Laflin Puffs, Presides at Senate
By MARY WARD Kansan Staff Writer
Molly Laffin, Lawrence senior and educator of the student body swirled into her desk, women's office threw down her books and exclaimed, "Mary, Mary."
I dutifully asked, "What?"
"I bought a pipe," she explained. "I thought it would really be a gas. A friend of mine says they do it all the time in England."
She started to fumble through some shopping bags and pulled out a pipe. She then proceeded to fill her new pipe and tried to light the cigarette with a match, that special thought of deep serious thought that men often
have while puffing on a pipe.
University Budget Forum
She said she would smoke the pipe at the senate meeting Wednesday night if she could figure out how to keep it lit.
"It ought to crack them up," she said.
Ping Pong Tournament
Kansas State legislators will present their side of the state colleges' universities' budget problems at the second of two forum meetings 8 p.m. Thursday in the Big B Room of the Kansas Union. The forum this week will feature Max Bickford, executive secretary of the Kansas Board of Regents; Sen. Tom Vickle, R-Springfield; Dan Park, and Rep. Jerry Harper, R-Lawrence. The forum has been designed as an information session to learn how the schools' budgets fit into the overall perspective of state financing.
Faculty Recital in Swarthout
Richard Angeloet, associate professor of piano, will present a faculty recital at 8 tonight in Swartwout Recital Hall. He will play selections by Schubert and Brahms. Angeloet joined the KU music staff in 1970.
The RU Ping Pong Club will hold a tournament beginning at 9 a.m., Saturday in Room 173, Robinson Gymnasium. The tournament consists of men's singles and doubles competition and includes the competition. Those interested should contact Richard Chenat 864-4612.
She did puff on her pipe as she presided over the senate meeting, and it did "crack them up."
Speech on South Africa

DESPITE HER SEMINGLY light attitude toward chairing senate meetings, Mrs. Kelsey served as the senate secretary I really like it although it is exasperating when things happen we really want to say something
As chairwoman of the meetings, Miss Laflin cannot

state an opinion unless she yields the chair to someone else and is given the floor to speak.
She said that when recognizing people to speak she tried to pick people she thought might have opinions opposing those opinions. She does this to try to assure that both sides of a discussion will be presented. She said she also tried to recognize people who did not speak often at senate meetings in order to give them a chance to be heard.
When she was a senator, Miss Lafin said, she often did not understand what was happening in this area. She was being voted on. This year she said that she had tried to explain what happened in the Senate, but if happen the it was out for or
against the proposal being considered.
AS VICE-PRESIDENT of the state bar, she has her job to serve as counselor over sensitive meetings. She said she also had served as a "troublehunter" for her client.
When committee chairmen have too much to do she helps them out. She had to take over the management of the reclamation center before someone was hired to manage it. She continues to be as chairwoman of the Reclamation Center. Governing Board.
Miss Laffin said she wore closely with committees and did the "leg work," such as calling meetings and sending out letters to the members of the Committee Board, which interviews appointees and commitstees. She also answers letters and works on the aendas.
She could not estimate how much time it took to be vice-president, but she said that it probably involved more than three hours a day. She said it was difficult to distinguish when she was working.
"It kind of becomes your social life too," she said.
The ability to combine her social life with the world around her can appeal to Miss Lafin. She said she thought it allowed people to let their children speak.
MUS LAFLIS said she would be so able to become acquainted with people outside of the senate she people meet in, in other places in she especially enjoyed her association Commission on the Status of
