AURH responsibilities defined in statement
The Association of University Residence Halls last night issued a statement defining its duties and responsibilities to the residence halls in the system.
The statement, made at an AURH executive board meeting, says, "AURH shall serve as an ambassador for residence halls and institutions of the University half system."
Mark Myers, AURH treasurer, said last night that the word ombusman should be emphasized in the definition. He defined an ambushman as one who investigates reported complaints, reports findings and hels to achieve equitable settlements.
The statement was issued after a controversy arose last Monday when the AUHR executive committee defeated a motion to support residents of Joseph R. Pearson hall in their attempt to get compensation for their hot water problems.
On Jan. 29, hot water service was disrupted at JRP because mixing valves were malfunctioning. Earlier this week, service was resumed.
Some JRP residents said they would seek compensation from the KU administration because of the inconvenience of being without hot water.
AURH executive board members last night agreed that the defeat of the JRP motion Monday night was due in large part to the wording of the motion.
"The controversy started with differing interpretations. 'Myers said.' People were quick to blame."
Myers said that a three-member subcommittee would be formed to meet with members of JRP to decide what would be done to help JRP with its problem.
The members of the subcommittee; Chris Cline, chairman of the AURH housing committee; Myers; and Larry Britton, AURH president, will meet with JRP representatives in a few days, according to Myers.
"We will open the matter for further discussion. Myers said, 'We hope we will get it done.'"
Myers said that in the past AURH did not have a formal statement outlining the functions of AURH. He said that the bylines of the association had served that purpose before, but that it was largely a matter of interpretation.
Myers said he was hopeful that this new statement would more sharply define the rules.
Minority panel to reorganize
The Minority Affairs Subcommittee, which has been inactive since November 1976, is making a coneback, focusing on issues that have not been addressed.

Brady said the subcommittee would have its first organization meeting Tuesday to arrange for people to attend.
That meeting, he said, will be an information meeting. The first substantive meeting will not be for two or three
weeks.
Reactivation of the subcommittee, Brady said Wednesday, was sparked by a controversy last semester over a University Daily Kansan review of the Natalie Cole concert.
At that time, Brady and several groups on campus asked for the formation of a board to review the content of the Kansas.
However, a rider that Brady attempted to add to the Kansan's supplemental budget request was defeated by the Student Senate.
THAT RIDER would have suspended funds allocated from the fund to the Kansan until a review could be formed and implanted.
The idea for reviving the Minority Affairs Subcommittee, which has existed as part of the Student
B Berlin told him the subcommittee would be more effective than he had proposed, but would not be imitating the other concerns concerning only the Kaiser.
Rights Committee since 1974, came from a meeting Brady had with Margaret Berlin. Bonner Springs junior, a biomedical researcher, served as chair.
"It it sees problems in the Kansan, it can work on Berlin. But "it would not be limited to just those cases."
According to Brady, he was inspired to reactivate the subcommittee because of responses from the black community.
"Last semester, basically we were trying to lay the groundwork to see if there was any interest," he said.
Brady said the first problems that the committee would tackle would probably concern a sensitivity workshop for Kansan personnel, and possible discrimination within the Greek system.
THE WORKSHOP, he said, would be designed for reporters who thought they needed to develop a greater awareness of the problems and lifestyles of the minority community.
Brady said the result would be more accurate reporting because reporters would be able to get their news from that source.
The subcommittee, according to Brady, would be developed as a recognized voice for the all minorities at KKU.
He said the subcommittee could act as a representative in the Senate for minority groups when the Senate considered it.
Small minority groups often get railroaded through the bearings, Brady said, and the subcommittee could use parliamentary procedure to allow the groups a chance to defend their budget requests.
"IT COULD BE a responsible voice in the Student Senate," he said.
"If the people look upon the subcommittee as the voice of all minorities," Omez said, "they would be mistaken."
He said the problems involved in recruitment and recruitment faculty and staff should be projects of the subcommittee.
George Gomez, Topea junior, and president of MECHA, a Mexican-American student organization, said that he thought the chances for revival of the subculture were good, but that its role should not be exaggerated.
It would be the beginning of next semester, Gomez said,
before the committee would become fully active.
Bernie said getting people to attend the first meeting and election, a strong chairman would be the first candidate to be elected.
"The mechanism is great," she said, "but the people in it make all the difference."

Psalms 2:1 and Acts 4:25
The 90th Palm is "A prayer of Moses the man of God." It is especially appropriate for New Year's, birthdays, and funerals. The Eternity of the Almighty is contrasted with the brevity, fearfulness, frailty and evil of man's life. "Before the mountains were brought down from Everlasting to Everlasting, The art God G'od has not created us with minds capable of comprehending that which has no beginning, nor end. Why 'kick against the pricks?' Why not acknowledge our limitation? It could be the preparation needed to learn to live with God's heart, and lean not to our own understanding." — Pros. 35.
Man's time and days are "As a sleep; like grass which growth up, in the morning it lhithsesthit and growth up. It grows until the midday; it grows until men to destruction, and sayeth, Return, ye children of men." Return to dust: "Return unto the ground — For dust thou art, and unto dust shall thou return, for thou art the one who is in God we warned not to disobey orders regarding eating the Forbidden Fruit Five times in three, 9, 11 — Moses the anger and the god of God be delivered from him. We命 in the light of His countenance!" This Psalm is frequent at tunerares, or parts of it, for often these verses are used in a moral context. Man can set in the light of His countenance! This Psalm is frequently

"I only could imp, I surely would, stand on the rock where Moses, stood." Think these words are from a Spiritual. Probably the basis is the passage in Exodus 31-19 23 where God placed Moses in the "clief of a rock" and covered him with a stone, so that he could see God's basis of the beloved song "Rocks of Ages; clief for me, let me hide myself in Thee." It is bad, it too bad, it two thousand and more bad, that some of our modern aretics are telling us that "The Rock of Ages" is out of delaf From the way I read it, I am aware that there are many other a友ed a factor done such prophets if it a millstone were hanging about their neck, and they were thrown into the sea".
Word for "myth," you certainly are out of place in a Protestant Christian Church man. Unbelieber, is it "myth" that men return to dust? Do you expect to expect to be surrounded by "myths?" And unto the woman He (God said) I will greatly multiply the sorrow and conception; in sorrow shall thou bring fort children? Ask any, or ask all women who have traveled to childbirth its this statement of wisdom.
Imagine you stood where Moses did and watched the Almighty 'turn man to destruction and return him to dust.' Even Moses himself 'returned to dust' outside of that good place, so he 'turned back' into 'destroying' beating a match for us to the cemetery, and dust.)
With the background of his experiences in his mind's eye, and having confessed them in the first part of his prayer, he began to be a teacher.
"TO TEACH IT TO NUMBER OUR DAYS, THE WAY WE APPLY OUR HEARTS TO UNIOS WISDOM." Note he asked God to be their Teacher to the end they might have wisdom for the past several days. "The fear of The Lord is the beginning of wisdom."
FO denies anti-union allegations
P. O. BOX 405 DECATUR, GEORGIA 30031
ny JOHN LOGAN Staff Reporter
The head of Facilities Operations yesterday denied charges that the proposed transfer of Kenny Brouhard, a stammerfist, to Broundhar's activity in a union.
The FO director, Rodger Oroke, said the transfer was because of personal differences between Brouhard and his supervisor, Tony Bermudez.
"Rather than let him remain in a decaying situation that was not benefitting anyone, we gave him the benefit of the doubt and reassigned him," Oroke said.
Brouhard had said yesterday that the transfer was because of his union involvement. Brouhard, who is business manager for his union local, Public Service Commission, has been a ministerials and foremen of a continuing campaign of harassment of union members.
Brouhard alleged that union members who complained of unsafe working conditions or contract violations by PO were warned to shut up or lose their jobs.
Oroke denied the charges.
Bermudez, Brouhard's foreman, said he agreed.
"WE DON'T harass anyone," he said.
"His union membership has absolutely nothing to do with the basis for reassignment."
"It doesn't matter what organization they do," it seems, what color they are," he said. "It has to be the same."
"We don't care to one way or another what they belong to. We're not picking on them."
But Wallace Rogers, Eudora, another
salesman at the retail shop,
and Bergmann displayed an ad.
"He doesn't come out and say it," Rogers said, "but he makes it obvious he is opposed."
Rogers said Brouhard's decision to join the union five years ago started the bad feelings between Bermudze and Brouhard. The situation was not surprised by the proposed transfer.
"I figure it all boiled down to the point where they are trying to get rid of him," he said.
BERMUDEZ ADMITTED that since Brouhard had decided to join the union in 1974, the two men had had personal differences and that the result had been ten-
"The last five years have been pure hell." Bermudez said.

"We're looking at something that is a personality-rooted problem," Oroke said.
But Oroke was quick to play down the effect of union membership on the dispute.
Rogers and the bickering had led to a split between the six men in the shop, three of whom were working.
Orke also defended a controversial paragraph in the letter he wrote to Brouhard, notifying him of the proposed transfer.
The paragraph read, "I feel you should be aware also that most certainly the steamfitting shop and construction services are being used in a documentation that either yourself or others might be involved in continuing disruptive activity or below-average work performance, that requires special training."
Brouhard said the paragraph was
that he believed harassment of
him but Orkea he said he disliked
him.
"When they are separated, it's only natural to observe both sides. If you see a similar problem developing in either of them, we should be zeroing in on the real problem," he said.
"We ARE only separating two people so we can zero in on the problem," he said.
Oreake said he planned to follow through with the reassignment soon. Brouhard already has announced his intention to file a lawsuit against speedeer against FO if the transfer is made.
