Kansas Neglects Retirement Plan
(Continued from page 1)
A comparison of KU's retirement program with other Big Eight schools shows KU and K-State have the worst provision of any school. Full professors at the University of Colorado retire at 50 per cent of their maximum salary through contributions to an annuity plan by the school. This plan has been in effect since 1924. Iowa State has retired its faculty at the same percentage of salary since 1944. The Oklahoma schools, through a contribution by the teachers, have the same benefits. All Big Eight faculty members except those at Kansas schools, retire at 50 per cent of salary.
THE PRESENT PROGRAM for Kansas universities and colleges retires faculty members at 27 per cent of their salary.
Even the privately-supported Kansas colleges such as Baker, Friends, McPherson, Ottawa and Washburn have plans comparable to those of the other Big Eight Universities.
The proposed retirement system by the University and the state Board of Regents would bring Kansas up to the national level. Tomorrow, the proposal will be presented to the Budget Hearing Committee of the state legislature by the board and members of the administration.
(Tomorrow's article will give the details and significance of the new program and what it will mean to the future of the University.)

ASC Passes Bill for Rider-Driver Bureau
- Establish a student driver-rider co-ordinating center.
- Award bonuses of $500 to the 1960 Jayhawker editor and business manager.
- The All-Student Council las night passed resolutions to:
- Change the regulations governing the candidacy for the offices of student body president and vice president.
The driver-rider co-ordinating center plan calls for a matching board to be placed at a convenient point for students to exchange information concerning rides during vacations. Max E. Eberhart, Great Bend junior and vice-chairman of Statewide Activities, submitted the resolution for the "Transportation Control Center."
A Temporary center will open at 1 p.m. tomorrow at the ASC office in the basement of the Kansas Union to provide students with information about rides over the Christmas holidays.
THE CENTER will have information cards and a permanent board with a map divided into geographical sections.
NORB GARRETT, editor, and Ronald Dalby, Joplin, Mo., senior and business manager of the 1960 Jayhawker annual were awarded $500 bonuses by the Council upon the recommendation of the Jayhawker Advisory Board. The bonuses will come out of the net profit on the annual which amounted to approximately $3.000.
The two Javahawk executive received a regular salary of $65 per month. The bonus was declared "for
producing an annual of superior quality."
Five petitions were filed with the council for the student body presidency and one for vice presidency. Those for president were: Phyllis Wertzberger, Lawrence junior; Paul Caippio, Overland Park junior; Alan Hedrick, Mission junior; Paul Ingemanson, Topeka junior, and Byron Stout, Wichita junior.
The candidates will be required to attend all ASC meetings until the spring elections.
A RESOLUTION was submitted by Tom Kurt, Pratt medical student, which stated that it should be made clear that the nine KU students journeying to Cuba over Christmas vacation are not going as representatives of the University. This means the ASC did not sanction the trip.
The resolution failed to receive a vote after discussion determined that the resolution would appear to restrict or limit an individual's right of expression and intellectual curiosity.
