The two-year-old dream of a coffee house in the Daisy Hill Residence Halls is now close to realization.
Construction bids on the new Association of University College Cree located in Lewis Hall are now being taken, according to John Breisner, Salina sophomore and AHRH Executive Board mem-
The target date for opening the
coose house is November 28,
1972. The committee planned
for Country Club Week at
the beginning of the Spring
The coffee house will be located in a section of the Lewis Hall museum. A burrito snack bar and sandwich bar will be operated in the coffee house and live entertainment will be provided on certain nights every week.
THE PROJECT is sponsored by the AUHR in conjunction with the KU Housing Department and the service of the Kansas Union.
The coffee house is intended for use by the Daisy Hill residents and other members of the AURH. It should be able to provide a place for those people in the halls who have no transportation. Besides said, it was initiated because a student was on the course of the hall students fall in this.
The coffee house cases the limitation on their evening entertainment and meets their needs. Breiser said it will also provide
a meeting area where hall musical or theatrical talent can perform for the benefit of the residents.
THE CONCEPT of the coffee house was operationally defined by an AURH task force formed to make concrete proposals. Their report, which was issued this week, defined planned now being acted upon.
Once in operation, the coffee house will be supplied with food services by the Kansas Union Concession Service. The "mimіrestaurant" will feature a snack bar and other food options under order restaurants or drive-in
Union employees will serve food during afternoon and evening hours seven days a week. According to the task force recommendations, they remain competitive with local short-order establishments.
THE TENTATIVE PLANS can be provided several times to be provided for a week. Breesner said that "semi-weekly" musicians will be recruited for certain nights. They will be provided at a percentage of the small cover charge that will be required on live entertainment is provided.
Other nights there will be an "open mike" where the hall residents will be encouraged to wear a face mask and force they were sure that there would be trouble in obtaining students who would want to perform. They said that many halls now had similar "open mike" performances of the arts students, all of the fine arts students in Hashington Hall would help ima
a sufficient number of volunteers.
The coffee house administrative structure will consist of a paid manager and a coordinating committee, which is the representative from each of the nine AURH residence halls.
THE COORDINATING committee's function is to establish policies for the coffee house and to aid in finding entertainment. The manager's responsibilities will be public, day-to-day operation, financial management, entertainment for the facility.
The manager, who will be selected by the coordinating Committee, has not been hired. The deadline for applications is in October. Application forms can be obtained in Elkhorn and Joseph K. Pearson Hall.
The coordinating committee members are Mike Wenthe, Miles O'Reilly, Millikan, Leawed senior; Gerli Kuwana, Kansas City sophomore; George Lindley, Mission junior; Andrew Larsen, Sophomore; ophorme; Ed Schons. Tonganio senior; and Pam Wilkins, Nevilleville, Ill. sophomore.
JOHN HILL, assistant to the director of resident hall systems, and Ellen Hanson, assistant to the committee, are the committee's advisors.
While the coordinating committee is an independent group its subject to review and modification by the AURH
Federal revenue-sharing
of the city of Lawrence this
year, but city officials as yet have
formulated no plans for spending
City Manager Buford Watson said he expected the Lawrence shake-up to be about $300,000, smaller than the Douglas County alocation.
League director Ernie Mosher said that preliminary figures indicate that Lawrence will have a salary check for $355,000 in late October. A League handout states that the figures should be used with a salary check of $250,000.
Lawrence and Douglas County officials attending the League of Kansas Municipalities meeting on Monday received information on the House-Senate conference committee. Final Congressional action is expected late this week or early next week, President Nixon said.
Watson said Tuesday that city officials hadn't decided how the city would respond to several city commissioners and an interest in capital improvement.
Kansas is scheduled to receive $22.8 million as its share of the $5 billion federal program. All Kansas cities, counties and towns will receive population, will receive a share. Under federal guidelines one third of the money is allocated to the state government, with two-thirds for municipal units. Mosher said that the League's state allocation estimate was accurate, but that the shares available to local governments would not be certain computer printout is published.
"We feel that before any expenditure plan is proposed we must consider all the things we must be putting off." Watson said.
Guidelines exist for the categorical priority areas in which the money may be spent, including environmental protection, pollution and sewage control, public transportation, health, police and protection, emergency services and budget planning.
The revenue-sharing money may not be used as the required local match for existing federal salaries and other salary salaries of elected officials.
Lawrence Officials Await Revenue-Sharing Funds
The categories are broad enough Watson said, to allow quite a bit of choice of programs on the local level, and there is noinking bureaucracy between the state and the federal government.
The allocation of funds to states is based on a formula taking into account the taxing effort of each state, its urban populations and rural areas. The formula favors states with high income taxes, high urban-center populations and a low per capita income, though the House-Senate committee's compromise states to receive generous shares.
Kansas will receive a relatively high per capita allocation of $15.60. State-local shares per person range from $3 to $20. No
unit of government can receive less than 20 per cent of the per capita share in the state nor more than 145 per cent. Local governmental bodies in Kansas will receive from $1.12 to $2.82 per person.
The amount will depend in large measure on the per capita income of the community. The county council receive an amount near the minimum, $65,000, while Kansas city stands to pay $1,649,000. Lawrence's $255,000 estimate will be the state for municipalities.
City officials said that environmental timetables and League policies were also discussed in the two-day meeting, but that revenue-sharing was in nearly every conversation.
Sen. James B. Pearson, RKan., and Mayor Richard Lugar of Indianapolis, Ind., spoke of the challenges of revenue-sharing
Policy guidelines adopted by the League recommend that local governments use the funds for federal or state mandated programs and that special eminent jurors should programs of high federal priority.
County boards of commer-
cial cities are fairly share of the money for needs within the cities of the county or for purposes which are clearly
"The result of spending federal money should be visible to the public, said, and suggested capital improvements in a way that benefits all."
should be kept informed of the money's use, and caution is urged to avoid contracting long-term commitments beyond the financing capability of the city, which will revenue-sharing program stop.
The League committee's report recommended that the revenue be used for "people service" activities, leaving the property services. Therefore, federal money should not simply be used to reduce the property tax levels.
