but does not include the monthly stipend. Recipients are obligated to practice medicine for one year for each year they receive a tuition scholarship. This plan does not require that the student be underserved, but it does say he must stay in the state.
The state Department of Health and Environment Monday released a report that said the Kansas City, Kan., area is the only area in Kansas that is not underserved.
According to a petition signed by the students in the suit, the fee increases, which were approved March 17 by the Board of Regents, were "part of a plan devised to
force medical graduates to work in Kangas."

THE REGENTS VOTED to increase
tuition for the $3,000 a year in a four-
year program for six years.
The tuition scholarships are awarded annually and are in effect for one academic year. The service obligations begin nine months after the student physician's license is granted or his residency training is completed.
A public letter written by the Medical Students' Association says that the association thinks the increase was made to protect the Regents' power to assess fees.
The students said they did not oppose
alleviating the Kansas medical care shortage, but they questioned the justification for nearly tripling the tuition of new students in maintaining their education at the Med Center.
THE LETTER SAID students were not concerned about the financial fate of future medical students because "they will know what is in to and will be able to plan accordingly."
A central issue in the case is whether enrollment in a University program constitutes an agreement and whether the institution thinks that agreement if it increases its rates.
Gerald Jesierch, the plaintiffs' lawyer, said a fee schedule for the medical students' term was given to them when they were accepted to the school. The tuition schedule did not include the tuition increase and constitutes a breach of contract, he said.
wanted to change the status of the issue to a contract case; we should seek damage, the plaintiff should be able to sue.
Davis said that the fee schedule did not include the increase but that if Jesier
In a Sept. 10 hearing, Carpenter ordered Jeschirc to file an amendment to his original petition. The amendment, Jeschirc said, was ordered because the judge wanted a more clear and conise explanation of the points in Jeschirc's petition.
SUPPORTERS OF THE program say it is the best way to get physicians in the areas of pediatrics, geriatrics and transplantation.
However, opponents say the program will drive qualified medical school applicants away from the University because they do not want to serve in Kansas.
The program has attracted 365 applicants in its first year.
KU officials and legislators have indicated they are reassured that, under the terms of the scholarship, 168 members of the entering class of 1979 have obligated themselves to practice in Kansas in return for the support the program provides.

can be corrected." Shelton said. "But not by continuing deficit federal spending."
He said the initial step in battling inflation would be to get the states to tighten their belts and to stop accepting federal money in grants and other services.
Shelton ...
Aneton was an active member of the Republican party for 48 years and campaigned during Alf Landon's first run for governor. He said he switched to the Democratic party because the people had become disenchanted with the two traditional parties, which he said were
selling their platforms for votes and not sticking to their principles.
Shelton said he picked the American party because the party represented men who had accumulated personal wealth by their own work and initiative.
Shelton said that the party was not contributing financially to his campaign and that most of his contributions were small amounts from outside the state.

voted for student funding of women's athletics.
"We are facing a major dilemma. The Universities in Kansas have gotten by because of their enrollment, but because our enrollments have continued to climb. Now, enrollment has leveled off and we can't justly move money from the matheure because of increased numbers of students."
"KU STILL HAS bonds to pay on residence halls, Wesco Hall and the Legislature." The first suggestion by the Regents as a way to pay them. Our only alternative to stop the backslider is to join ASK. We'll have a meat cleaver over our heads at the Legislature
"rarner said that if ASK was not effective he would ask for student issues, KU could choose his."
"I think 10 months is a fair trial period and if by the end of that time we're not convinced of their effectiveness, we can back out." he said.
"However, if they're successful in lobbying for minimum wages for students, the graduate fee waiver or women's athletics will be considered to ASK the same year can be easily justified."
Zacharias said ASK had been successful in lobbying for many student issues.
"IF WE DON'T get the money, we won't fold up, but other universities will have to pay more. Of course, our purpose in wanting KU to join is not financial, but for the ad-
"We have a pretty good track record in the Legislature," he said. "We can be even more effective with KU's support. The additional $2,500 we're getting from KU this year will help to expand our financial base. If KU joins again next year, we can expand even more."
optional 23,000 votes and the unified voice at the Legislature."
Ralph Munyan, former student body vice president, said he did not think KU would receive enough benefits from ASK to merit the cost of joining.
CSHE is the KU lobbying group.
"The issues ASK is pushing for do not benefit KU students directly." Munyan said, "and we could lobby for things like minimum wages for students more effectively and cheaply through Concerned Students for Higher Education."
Scott Morgan, student senator, agreed with Muyan.
"Why should we spend KU students' money on issues that don't affect them," Munyan said. "If we join ASK for 50 cents a student a year, we're just giving our students' money to someone else to work with."
"I spite of the pros and cons, we'll end up paying 50 cents a student, which, in total, is quite a large sum. The students may be very nervous, as anything might something they may not agree with," he said.
RON ALLEN, executive director of RON CHELSE, said he was satisfied with the vote.
"I'm glad it's over here," he said. "Now I can start formulating what on WHSE
He said he hoped ASK and CSHE could work together to lobby for some issues.
Zacharias he said he thought KU's approval of the bill would influence the schools that host him.
"It will definitely help with the other schools," he said. "There was some question as to whether or not they should even consider it if KU was not going to approve it. Now, I think it will pass with a large major."
