ASC Cuts Funds To Organizations
By Jane Boyd
The debate team of the University of Kansas will not receive an appropriation from the All Student Council this year.
The debate team has requested funds 10 out of the last 11 years to sponsor a team in the national tournament at West Point. (One year the debate team did not qualify for this spring tournament.)
The ASC decided two weeks ago in its annual budget session an appropriation to the debate team would be unconstitutional.
The ASC constitution states that organizations desiring appropriations of student funds should be classified according to their purpose.
The University is responsible for the educational and public relations organizations. The ASC is responsible for all social, service and administrative activities.
The constitution says: "No organization may apply to both sources for funds."
The debate team does receive funds from the University but has also been receiving ASC funds unconstitutionally for five years.
The council also cut a $260 appropriation request by the combined pep clubs for migrations because members didn't think it was their place to pay for students' trips to other campuses.
However, it passed a $200 appropriation for the Associated Women Students' I.A.W.S. regional convention to be held in Columbia, Mo., during March.
The council did add $50 to the requested $100 appropriation by the
pep clubs for "white shirts and rallies."
A request for $7.87 by the Student Bar Association for magazine subscriptions was cut since the explanation by finance and auditing committee did not believe it to be the business of the ASC to purchase magazines for the law library.
Appropriations requested by the Bar Association for two coffees, a spring dance and a picnic were also cut.
The council felt these functions could be handled within the group itself.
Funds requested for initiations for Mortar Board, senior women's honor society, and Alpha Phi Omega, a national service organization, were cut with the same answer.
City Expenses Booklet Available
A booklet explaining the revenues and expenditures of second-class cities is now available at the Governmental Research Center.
"Municipal Finance in Kansas 1953-1956" by James T. McDonald of the center is a study of cities with population over 2,000 and not exceeding 15,000.
Mr. McDonald's booklet is one of the nine booklets available in a fiscal information series of the center.
The other series are governmental research and the citizens pamphlet series. Publications of the center are available to interested citizens.
Harrison's Name Omitted From List
The name of A. B. "Red" Harrison Jr., Wichita freshman, was inadvertently omitted from the list of candidates for vice president of the freshman class listed in yesterday's Daily Kansan.
Chi-O Fountain Retains Popularity
Some students apparently choose to use their outside time with such diversions as dumping dye into the Chi Omega fountain rather than earning extra money through working on several available jobs on campus.
Damon Mountford, Coffeyville senior and director of student employment, said several jobs are available in the buildings and grounds department that pay from 90 cents to $1 an hour. But applications are scarce.
"Men are needed on these jobs for 15 to 40 hours a week. They must check with me when they apply for this work," he said.
No one seems to be rushing to take these jobs and students apparently prefer to use their extra time for other activity. Last Sunday, campus police reported, the Chi Omega foun- tain had a "slightly pinkish cast" from dve.
Interested persons wanting to apply for work with the buildings and grounds department may contact Mountford at KU 546 from 1-3 p.m. weekdays or from 8 a.m. until noon on Saturdays.
