natural grass playing surface. The stadium is due for extensive renovation, including the removal of seats for waterproofing
SenEx members also said the constant turnover of nonteneur track faculty would make solid, long-reaching academic programs harder to develop.
Christofferson agreed that the use of nontenure track faculty might have that effect.
"It WILL certainly have an effect on long-range research programs because they are usually done by tenured faculty members," he said.
Leban said it would even cut into the effectiveness of the notteventure track faculty.
"When they know they are only going to be for a year or two, they are going to have to spend a good deal of time looking for their next job," he said.
"They serve the University, but they don't get the benefits given other faculty members," he said. "They don't even get the benefits to scuttle down and live a normal life."

KUAC to discuss repairs
By DENNIS MINICH
Proposed renovations to Memorial Stadium will be discussed at the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation (KUAC) monthly meeting this afternoon.
Staff Writer
J. Hammond McNish, KUAC chairman, said yesterday that the discussion would center on a proposed general renovation of the university's related problems of financing the project.
Clyde Walker, athletic director, said last week that improvement of the 56-year-old stadium would be necessary because many parts of the facility never had been
McNish said the main concern was the interior surface.
"It will be necessary to take out the seats and rip out some of the existing concrete to make room for new ones."
Another problem is the artificial turf that covers the playing field in the stadium.
*MCNISH SAID* that this year would be the last the existing surface could be used and the new surface could be added.

Stewart said 3M no longer made the turf that 3M had and a substitute would have to do so.
MNeish said one surface being considered

Purdue University.
"When we first went to put in the artificial surface, it was believed that it was an
irrevocable commitment because of the concrete laid below the surface, but that idea has changed and we are considering natural grass again," McNish said.
Stewart expressed a preference for the artificial turf.
"It is much easier to handle and care for an artificial surface than grass." Stewart said. "It takes much more punishment and requires less work on a regular basis."

Walker said all improvements would be subject to approval by KUAC, the university.
