Two-Campus Government Considered
By BOB SIMISON Kansan Staff Writer
The University Council began work Thursday on a measure that would create separate governing bodies for the university and campuses of the University of Kansas.
Three sections of a proposed amendment to the 1970 University Senate Code were approved in $1\frac{1}{4}$ hours. At least two more weekly work sessions are planned involving 12 articles can be submitted to the University Senate for approval.
Three articles of the revision will be submitted by the Faculty Council.
Sections one, two and three of article one, approved by the council Thursday, would create an All-University Senate comprising the members of the University senates of the Kansas City and Lawrence campuses.
SUBSEQUENT ARTICLES outline the two University senates. The article creating the Kansas City body would empower it to "formulate such rules and regulations as it shall deem wise and better for governing the Kansas City campus.
James Moeser, associate professor of organ and chairman of the Committee on Organization and Administration of the Senate would create its own structure.
"It's understandable that there are problems on each campus that are not appreciated by the other," Acting Chancellor Raymond Nichols said during a Tuesday. "This revision eliminates the tedium problem we've had with cuurouts."
Three consecutive meetings of the University Senate were cancelled last year, Nichols said, because a quorum of 20 per cent could not be gathered.
"The reason was obvious," he said.
There was no interest in what we were
doing.
MEMBERS OF the council made four challenges to the wording of sections two and three of article one. Three motions to amend were defeated.
Section two names the chancellor as presiding officer of the All-University Council. An amendment to substitute the presiding officers of the two University Senates on alternate years failed by voice vote.
An amendment to increase the All-University Senate quorum from 20 per cent of the senate to 20 per cent of each University Senate failed. So did an amendment that would have required 20 per cent of the Student Senate for a quorum.

International Club elections were held last night amid charges of "power grabbing" and "manipulation." Two clearly divided
groups within the club had prevented the elections from being held last spring. "We will try to accommodate all ideologies," said the newly elected president, Abdullah Aladwani, Kuwait junior, right.

KU, Regent Search Committees To Join in Selecting Chancellor
By LINDA SCHILD Kansan Staff Writer
The selection of a new candleholder for the University of Kansas will involve two committees and the Board of Regents, the chair, chairman of the board, said Thursday.
Stewart, who was asked by the board to draw up guidelines for a search committee, will recommend his plan to the reeents at their meetings in Hays Saturday.
KU students, faculty and alumni will be represented on a campus advisory committee.
A regents search committee will comprise the six regents, who are KU alumni, and Stewart, who will be chairman. Elmer Jackson, Paul Wunsch, James Basham, Henry Bubb, and W. F. Danenbarger quality as KU alumni, Stewart said. He has not yet contacted each of them about his proposal.
"The actual appointment will come from the entire board," Stewart said.
"This will involve the three reegents on the regents search committee," he said. "I would think that since they won't be immediately involved they would follow our recommendation, but they have a right to their own opinions."
"I haven't focused on in on the exact duties of this search committee. The University community committees."
they can meet with the regents and we'll decide who does what.
"The role played by the campus committee will depend on their time limit."
The size and percentages of the campus search committee will be decided
"The office of chancellor certainly requires a strong leader for the University."
"He could be someone other than an academician, in the strict sense of the word. The chancellor has that kind of person already available to advise him."
"I wouldn't rule out anyone, with or without advanced degrees.

House Rejects Vietnam Cutoff
WASHINGTON (AP)—A proposed cutoff of money for U.S. Indochina war operations in four months was quickly and quickly overturned House Thursday after 10 minutes of debate.
The proposed amendment to the $7.46 million defense appropriations bill was approved without objection, with all off except U.S. withdrawal money in four months, provided Hanlou released American prisoners and gave an acctory to American citizens missing in its territory by the war.
The $74.5 billion appropriation for the fiscal year starting last July 1, the biggest defense bill since World War II, was approved 322 to 40 and sent to the Senate.
Acting on another amendment, the House overrode its Appropriations Committee and voted to authorize the military KP, or all but recruits and men in the field.
REJECTION OF THE end-the-war measure came after F. Edward Hebert, D—La, chairman of the Armed Forces Committee, said the House had already taken its stand on antiwarm amendments and there was little left to argue about.
Rep. Joseph P. Addabbe, D-N.Y., author of the amendment, said, "We have stayed too long and paid too great a price." The president and world and have instead suffered infection.
"It is time I believe, to come home and beal our own wounds."
Speaker Carl Albert refused to take sides on the Addabbo amendment, saying "I'm for ending the war but I'm worried about the honor of the United States.
"the honor of the United States is not going to be hurt if we do not go ahead and win this war," he told newman, "unless we do we are disgraced or irresponsible."
BESIDES REJECTING the end-the-war move, the House rejected efforts to chop out $445 million for the advanced B-1 airplane and another $400 million for tougher nuclear warheads.
The KP amendment-criticized as coddling Gls and defended as helping attract an all-vollunteer military-was proposed by Rep. Robert L.F. Sikes .D-Fla
Sikes said that recruits and GIs in the field would still have to do chores. He said the services would have to find money for hiring civilians to take over KP choirs on of their regular money allotments without special funding from Congress.
"The next thing you know, we're going to have to give them breakfast in bed," complained Rep. William E. Minshell, R—Ohio, "and everything that goes with it."
REP. CLARENCE LONG, D-Md., said the taxpayers in his district have to spend some of their time on such menial charges as mowing the lawn and hanging out the wash. They were not going to like them, so they let GIs get out of the cleanup chores.
But Rep. S. Gusber, R-Calif., said "KP and the indignity" it imposes an impediment to President Nixon's goal for achieving an all-volunteer military next June 20. He said if it was continued now, he would not have the next year for lack of sufficient volunteers.
Chairman George H. Mahon, D—Tex., of the House Appropriations Committee, said making KP a civil duty would cost the services $275 million a year. Sikes said the services told him it would cost $125 million a year.
THE HOUSE vote overrode its Appropriation's Committee, which called KP and other chores "wholesome and character building" for GIs and recommended termination by next April 30 of the House to turn the chores over to civilians.
The Sikes amendment permits the services to hire civilians only for KP, not for the other chores including barracks cleanup and cigarette butt polling details.
The House rejected by voice vote an amendment by Rep. Sidney R. Yates, D- Ill., to scrap all $10 million for toughening nuclear warheads.
Pope Denies Women's Clergy Role
VATICAN CITY (AP)—Pope Paul VI, spurning appeals from cardinals and feminist groups alike, has barred women attending the Sunday Mass in the ministry of the Roman Catholic Church.
The Pope ruled Thursday that women could continue to read the Bible during Mass and perform some altar services, but not because they would never claim it as a right for themselves.
"In accordance with the venerable tradition of the Church," the decree said, "installation in the ministries of lector and acolyte is reserved to men."
The decree dashed the hopes of thousands of womens and nuns who thought the Church would not deny official recognition to the help they have been giving priests in religious services for years.
This barred women from receiving a formal investiture by a bishop for what they have been doing for years. They can be barred from this role depending on the priest locally in charge.
By contrast, the decree extended the rights of Catholic men. The Pope allowed them to become lectors and acylates while preserving their lay state that is, without becoming clergymen bound to obedience to the bishops.
Cardinal Flahiff of Winnipeg, many bishops in the 1971 synod here appealed to the Pope to allow women to become ordained and to help make up for the lack of priests.
A Vatican official said Pope Paul sought the advice of bishops around the world before issuing the decree. The official, Rev. Paolo Delez, said several episcopal conferences were in favor of having women ministers as lectors and apostles.
Spearheaded by Canada's George
Most Roman Catholic women in the United States were predictably critical of the Pope's decree, although a few countenance the tradition of the Church should be upheld.

Republican Commissioner to Profit From Highway Plan, Demos Assert
By GARY NEIL PETERSON Kansan Staff Writer
A proposal to build a highway connecting K-10 with 24 to 40 highways has come under fire recently by local officials who charged a possible conflict of interest.
Fred Stewart, Democratic candidate for the 3rd District County Commission seat, and Fred Kroenig, the proposed highway land site because the park's square-mile area is owned by Stewart's Republican opponent, 3rd District County Commissioner Heuer Heck, and members
Stewart charged at a Democratic Club meeting here several weeks ago that Heck was "doing something illegal" by having a highway cross his land, because Heck would profit substantially from the sale of his land.
The Kansas Attorney General's office said that Heck could not be prosecuted on the grounds of conflict of interest. John Martin, assistant to Atty. Gen. Vern Burton, said the sale of the land could be interpreted as "misconduct," but that it was not illegal.
The 1971 Douglas County Real Estate Tax Roll shows that Arthu Heck owns 2.27 acres of land in the section under consideration. However, 173.16 acres of land
THE PROPOSED four-square-mile site, just east of the Co-op plant and runs northwest of it.

Stewart was not sure how much land
Heck owned or the exact location.
are in his parents' name; 235,971 acres, in his sister-in-law Helen's name, and one acre, in his brother Walter's name. This acre is 86 acres, the 2,560 studied, or 16.11 per cent.
In addition, Rep. John H. Vogel (R—Lawrence) and his wife own jointly 55,173 acres. In the name of his wife, Irene, alone in New York, owns tax rolls. Vogel is Heck's brother-in-law.
The Douglas County tax assessor said those figures were based on 30 per cent of retail value of the land in 1963. John O. Adams of the Kansas Highway Commission, said that the land was more correctly valued at about 10 per cent of its actual 1963 worth. Therefore the lands could be worth more than $805,700.
According to 1971 Douglas County tax rolls, Arthek Heck and his family's land is worth about $62,800, Vogel's i.d. is about $15,400, and Havden's land. $12,130.
HECK, HIS family, Vogel, his family and Hayden together own about 630.80 acres of the land being considered—almost a quarter.
Will H. Hayden, former Douglas County Commissioner, has land holdings of 77.24 acres in that area.
Adams said feasibility studies in that area indicated there was a need for a highway to link north and south Lawrence on the east.
"A highway will go into that area someday," he said.
Adams said the need would be met by
the state in cooperation with city and county officials.
After an initial study, a new study will determine the exact location of the highway, according to Buck Jones, spokesman for the Department of the Highway Commission.
Asked why a highway would be built in this segment of "bad land," Jones said city and county officials had expressed a desire to develop that side of Lawrence.
HE SAID the land would be difficult to
withstand since a great deal of water
bottomed it.
These studies will be called "corridor studies" and will consider the terrain of the land and problems that will have to be solved.
The Lawrence city planning agency, however, in its master plan and zoning codes, stringently restricts building anything in a flood plain.
"Highways are built to encourage development." said Jones.
"Building restrictions will make it difficult to build here at all," Jones said. "For the highway, fill will have to be brought in to build up the level so that if the river ever floods, the highway will not be underwater or washed away."
Dean R. Sanderson, Douglas County Engineer, said that the bypass originally was planned for the west side of Lawrence and those areas were changed "to fit the needs of the county."
Answering the accusations of conflict of interest made by Stewart and Dave
Berkowitz, candidate for Douglas County attorney, Heck said he did not intend to sell his land to the state for a big profit from a highway.
Heck said that he had had his land for more than 40 years and that he was not afraid of it. Heck said that he
"But if the state has to put a highway over my land, then it has to be," Heck said. "I'd rather it did not go over my property if I could cross my father's original barnstead."
Asked about a possible conflict of interest from the possible sale of the land to Mr. Rumelian, he was carefully correlated with the highway not going over his property since it would damage his neighbors' land. He also said he could see no conflict of interest since he was not involved in the sale.
Douglas County Attie, Mike Ewell said he could see no reason to question the "respectability of Art Hek" or consider the action liberal or a conflict of interest.
Eiwell said the accusations and inendas were without base and called Fred Stewart
Hheck said Thursday that he had spoken to Elwell and that he would "abstain"
Asked if he would enter the hearings which will take place following the corridor studies, Heck, pausing, said the wizard had to "abstain" from that, too.
Elwell said Tuesday that he would "abstain" from any activity involving the property. He said it would be advisable for Heck to stay clear and "keep quiet."
