Consumer Affairs opens KU branch
Hours will be erratic, and the office still needs more volunteers, but the KU branch of the Consumer Affairs Association will open next week, Clyde Chapman, association director, said yesterday.
association's downtown office at 819 Vermont St., will stock a variety of pamphlets on consumer problems, including a landlord-tenant booklet put out by the association.
Chapman said that the agency would offer advice on consumer-related money problems, but that most of the information requests would concern housing, mail-order businesses, active companies and credit cards.
Students who need consumer affairs information should go by the KU office on the second floor of the Kansas Union. Hours will vary, so students should check the hours on the door, he said. Or they could either the KU or the downtown office.
Chapman has been handling the work load of four full-time employees with the help from volunteers since federal regulations began, with $30,000 less than last year's budget.
Following program cuts required in March by the U.S. Department of Labor, the Consumer Affairs agency that investigates consumer complaints lost three employees paid by Title IID. A comprehensive Education and Training Act.
The nine-year-old operation receives money for general operating expenses from city and county revenue sharing. As director, Chapman is paid by KU student activity fees allocated by Student Senate.
The KU office will be staffed primarily by volunteers.

Budig
One man asked if there were a way to ease restrictions on the transfer of credits from small colleges to the universities.
From page one
Iola is the home of Allen County Community Junior College.
Both Budig and Acker said they would try to better inform transfer students about graduation status; students wouldn't end up with wasted hours.
"We will make significant efforts to improve our articulation activities."
THE KIWANIS men had to return to work, so the luncheon ended promptly at 1 n.m.
With 5½ hours to go before dinner started at the Emporia Country Club, the administrators decided to visit a few friends and see the Emporia Gazette, the newspaper that William Allen White brought to fame.
He said the questions asked at the luncheon were typical—there's usually a question about student financial aid, federal reductions, environment and the
On this stretch of the road, Budig drove.
His answers? Funds will continue to flow to the universities, but they may come from private businesses. Students also will continue to flow to universities
and colleges because the increasing number of adults who return to school will make up for the decreasing number of graduating high school seniors.
He said people usually asked how many graduating medical students would stay in Kansas to practice. He said he replied that 50 percent of the graduates stayed in the state and that the percentage would increase.
Parents would ask about job opportunities for their children. For example, for those involved in the School of Education, he said, "There will be a teacher shortage within the next three to five years."
AS HE NEARED Emporia, Budig warned: "Don't be surprised if I slam on the brakes, jump out of the car and run to a Dairy Queen."
Von Ende had said earlier that Budig traditionally stopped for an ice cream
First stop in Emporia: Dairy Queen.
Budig ate a small chocolate-dipped cone while von Ende devoured a hot fudge brownie delight. It was 3:45 p.m.
The chancellor still had 45 minutes before he was to meet Acker at the Emporia Gazette. Acker had a haircut from Budig's hair, almost reached his ears.
Forty-five minutes was time enough for a haircut. Topper's Barber and Style Center was the chosen site, and in 1987, Budig's crown matched Acker's.

As Budd himself said, "There are many miles to be traveled; there are many people to see; there are many students to support of the University of Kansas."
After an involuntary visit of downtown Emporia, the administrators stopped for a brief visit at the Gazette office. Katherine White, the daughter-in-law of William Allen White, showed Budig around.
Escorping him to the newsroom, she cried, "Up every person, stand up. This is our mission."
A HALF HOUR later, there was still time to visit James Pickert a member
of the Kansas Board of Regents, and John Visser, president of Emporia State University.
Then the ritual began again: dinner at 6:30 p.m., a sneech at 7:30.
what our state universities have done to make Kansas a better place to live."
"There are those who've forgotten
"Now is the time to stand behind your state universities," Budig told about 30 Emporia Jaycees. "Without strength in Kansas will not achieve its true potential."
And the speech went on. It will continue to go on, next week in Kansas City, Kan., Pratt and Hays. It will continue throughout the year.
Bars
From page one
said students looked at the Rock Chalk as a home away from home.
He got out just in time. In 1969, the bar business fell victim to the activist movement when drug sales were up and beer sales were down.
Cooper, who now works for the Kansas Turnpike Authority, said he sold the bar because he wanted to do something different.
But the bar that was most affected was the Rock Chalk.
WOODEN SAID that before 1969 he sold 200 cases of beer each week at the Wheel, but sales fell to 60 cases a week because of drug use.
In 1972, Dan Rather and "60 Minutes" visited the Rock Chalk to do a story about campus drug problems.
Morrow said hundreds of students would stand in the street near the Rock Chalk and another nearby bar, the Gaslight.
"Whatever element that era was here, it very much typified the change that occurred and the activism that occurred in the 68th and early '70s," he said.
In 1972, Vern Miller, Kansas attorney general, shut down both bats. The Rock Chick reopened the New Haven; the Gaslight burned down and the drug use
After the New Haven it became Flagship International Sandwiches, the Ark, the Catfish Bar and Grill and, finally, the Crossing.
THE NEW HAVEN lasted only a short time. From 1972 to 1880 the old Rock Chalk building had numerous owners and names.
When Morrow became owner he had to rip out the interior—furniture 1964 Rock Chalk milk licenses—remodel the kitchen and add a norch.
Just as one problem ended, another began for the three bars.
For something new and unique!

In response, the Lawrence City Commission wanted to close down the bars after on KU home football game days. But bar owners came up with a plan to keep beer drinkers inside and to get more help to control the crowds.
Despite these problems, tradition goes on. And one can bet that the Hawk will still fly high, the Wheel will keep turning and the Crossing will always look down Oread Avenue toward the KU camp us.
THE OWNERS are now fighting a 1966 classification that labels the bars commercial businesses in an area zoned residential-dormitory. If a bar should burn down, it could not be rebuilt.
Neighbors started complaining to the city about the noise and overcrowding around the bars. Even the toilets didn't escape criticism.
