Campaigner says his ventures hampered by events committee
By SAM VAN LEEUWEN
Staff Reporter
Jeff Roth never thought he would have so many hassles dealing with the University Events Committee.
stur Roth said yesterday that ambiguous guidelines had twice spiked his group's attempts to campaign for Bob Stephen. Republican candidate for at-large
given by Roth is the president of the KU Student Bar Association and the organizer of the Students for Stephan committee.
The most recent problem, Roth said, occurred Saturday afternoon. While thousands of people watched ROT upset UCLA; ROH was injured by police action by KU police.
Roth said he had interpreted a letter from the events committee to mean that his group could carry a banner attached to the stadium. The team's central Stadium during Saturday's game.
HOWEVER, William Durrant of the
University police, said he ordered the group to remove the banner and balloon from University property because the group demanded permission from the events committees.
Durrant said the group had permission to carry the banner but not to attach it to the balloon.
Roth's group moved the balloon and banner to private property at the corner of 11th and Alabama streets.
But Eversole said an opinion by Vicki Thomas, assistant to he University general counsel, that he would not keep the events confidential but keep them out of carrybar a carrying outside the stadium.
Amre Eversole, chairman of the events committee, refused to comment about the letter or the action taken by University police.
Eversole's letter to Roth says, "Your request was denied as it was written, however, the committee wanted me to
write you to suggest a possible alternative.
'SINCE WE HAVE had some problems with banners on the campus in the past, I spoke with an attorney in the city and my security General Counsel about your request.
Roth said he was upset about the confusion because no one involved had final authority over the matter.
"She indicated that the committee could deny your request to secure the banner on the hill, but she stated that the stadium had not been hit." The stadium if traffic was not impeded."
"The events committee has a good purpose, but there was a total breakdown in communications," Roth said. "Rather than make a decision, the police said to move the banner off campus and everything would be all right."
Roth also said he had had problems with the events committee in August.
State agency to direct energy research
An interim legislative committee Friday decided not to change z new state law that calls for the Kansas Energy Office to work with universities on their energy research
The meeting of the committee was scheduled to give representatives from Regents institutions a chance to voice objections to a bill that established the energy office as the agency to allocate the majority of state and federal energy research funds.
Representatives from the University of Kansas, Wichita State University and Kansas State University, where the bulk of Kansas energy research activity takes place, had no objectives in the world for the university at the Del Shannon Executive vice chancellor, said yesterday.
Steve Harris, director of the Kansas Energy Office said, "It's not anyone's intention to have funds for all the energy to be systematically channeled through the energy office."
"THE LAW strongly suggests that the energy research activities that are going energy research activities that are going on and to provide support."
In the past, decisions about research

activity have been made almost entirely within a university. The energy needs of the state are now going to be looked at also, he said.
"Our role is going to stem from the development of a list of priority projects that we think the state ought to be involved with," Harris said, "and then move from that stage to provide whatever support we can to see that those areas are pursued."
Shankel said KU was concerned that the office might operate in a way that would stifle creativity among KU faculty members. He said, however, that KU had no objections concerning the law and would comply.
HE SAID PROBLEMS that could arise in response to irradiation out with energy office advisory notice.
Harris said a meeting with representatives from Regents institutions to help them understand the Kansas energy office's new role would be scheduled next month.
"I think that people in the Legislature, within the universities and within the energy office will try to make the law work to our mutual advantage," Harris said.
"If we need to change it later or if there are ways to make it work better, those will be brought up at future legislative sessions," he said.

Satellite union basement delay possible
Kansas Union officials may postpone plans to complete the basement level of the
By SAMVAN LEEUWEN Staff Reporter
Frank Burge, director of the Kansas Union, said Saturday the office of facilities planning was negotiation with B. A. Anderson and S. T. Dupree to estimate a cost estimate for finishing the basement.
Originally, the basement was to have been left unfinished until future need arises. But a surplus of $495,000 from the original basement basement completion problem. Burge said.
However, Burge said officials were "apprehensive" that Andersen's estimated cost might be more than the Union could afford.
Andersen is under contract with the Kansas Union Memorial Corporation, the governing unit of the Union, to construct the estimated 2.5 million Satellite Unit.
"A DECISION may be made to wait for near completion of existing contractors' obligations and then to put the additional costs into effect, but that the actual cost is realistic," Burge said.
Tentatively, the 16,000-square-foot

basement will include an activities center with an accompanying patio, meeting rooms and roomettes.
Burge said the Satellite Union planning committee also would consider hiring a professional firm to analyze the cost of furnishing the basement.
He also said the Andersen firm was seeking a 21-day extension to complete the Satellite Union because of bad weather later. Construction began nine months ago.
However, Keith Lawton, director of
fashion at the company's weeks ago
that the project was on schedule.
LAWTON REFUSED to comment when contacted at home yesterday.
Burge said Andersen's contract had a clause that allowed extra time if bad weather caused construction delays. If the weather was severe, no, he would be assessed against Andersen.
