ASK...
that would not influence their voting on KU's proposed membership.
From page one
Jeff Suelb, Fort Hays "body president, said, "The ultimate goal of ASK is to have all state schools join. Our real concern is with the dollar problem—whether or not it's fair for KU to have more representation than we do and pay less."
"I don't anticipate voting on KU's membership soon and before we do, we'll have an extensive orientation period. I don't think it will be an emotional vote at all."
Jeff Right, student body president at Washburn University, agreed.
"I don't think we'll have any problem passing the resolution here," he said. "It may increase our efforts to pull out because it makes ASK more oriented toward state schools but we wouldn't block another student." And just because we were considering quitting,
Student body presidents at the other three member schools are optimistic about the KU membership proposal's chances in their senates.
Becky Winterschett, student body president at Emporia State University, said, "I view KU's joining ASK as a golden opportunity.
Shirley Edmunds, student body president at Pittsburgh State University, said, "I'll look for a way to do that."
"Right now when we go before the Board of Regents, they want to know why KU isn't a member. With KU's 25,000 students, along with the members we already have, we'll have a lot more mow with them. I think it will pass," she said.

Students looking for off-campus housing are running into problems because of the high cost of living.
Off-campus housing units scarce
Staff Reporter
Other problems of those seeking off-campus housing include cost, distance from campus and type of accommodation, access to facilities, director of the office of residential programs.
"Their problems are the same, but the normal difficulties are complicated because of the limited number of apartments still for rent," McEhennie said.
Lawrence Rentals Exchange, 1611 St.
Andrews St., has 20 units available. The company manages more than 800 apart-
ment locations according to a spokesman for the company.
Another apartment listings service, Kaw Valley Management, also has a small museum. It has one of Garyhardt's managers, manager of Kaw Valley, said he had five units available. The only reason for the vacancies, Garyhardt said, is that construction on the units was completed just recently.
McElbenie said another frustration for
students looking for housing was that conditions were not what they expected.
"We carry listing for apartments ranging in cost from $125 a month on up," he said. "But students are often disappointed with what they find for the money."
McEhennie's office has listings of available apartments, but it does not offer referrals. The office also has a list of people looking for roommates.
McEllenbie said students looking for apartments have some to choose from, but the residents don't.
House...

members moved in, they discovered that nothing had been done to improve the building.
- now our major concern is fixing the place up to make it look live and at least look real.
From the looks of the building, the goal seems to be a monumental task.
From the outside, the house looks much like other old houses surrounding the property.
Appearances can be deceiving.
The steps leading up to the large front porch are old and rickety. The porch itself is cluttered with paint can, boxes filled with trash, old furniture and several mattresses.
The door looks as if the slightest breeze could rubbine it.
Once inside, things are not much better.
The inside door does not have a handle or door knob.
Each room downstairs needs wallpaper.
Large holes and torn spots cover the walls.
in the dining room, folding chairs surround two folding tables. An old door leans up against the wall. The fireplace is cluttered with dirt and paper.
The only telephone in the house is a pay phone.
Members of the fraternity are using their own money to hire professional workers to wallpaper, paint and repair both the interior and exterior of the house, Shapiro said.
They hope to be repaid by the national fraternity after the work is completed, he
After the house is repaired, probably a month from now, Shapiro said, they move on to the next step in organizing a fraternity—recruiting members.
The fraternity needs seven more members living in the house before the national university.
At that time, the national fraternity will find a new house for the fraternity, he said.
However, Alpha Epsilon Pi is not going to stop at seven new members, Shapiro said. They hope to build up a membership at least one more than the other Midwestern Jewish fraternities.
"There are some pretty fair-sized Jewish fraternities in the Iowa, Missouri, Indiana, and Illinois campuses," he said. "Hopefully, we'll be able to equal them in time."
Shapiro said that Naismith Hall was likely source for recruitment.
"There are a lot of Jews in Naismith who I think would be interested in joining if the school were open."
Reaction . . .
From page one
"Certainly the simple fact of the merger would not make me drop the complaint,"
sex discrimination in KU athletics, is not wholly won over.
"I don't think a merger itself will bring equity. It could be used as a way of keeping women down. I hope the University will award faith and use it as a way to help women."
William Hogan, executive vice chancellor, said that a merger of athletics departments still was in a preliminary planning stage. He also said it was not being planned to avoid any difficulties KU might have in complying with Title IX.
"Three or four years ago plans were discussed to eventually have the programs merged," Hogan said. We're looking for the program that provides a high quality program for women."
Women's field hockey lost sponsorship by the women's athletics department in May after the department's budget was reduced by the Kansas Legislature.
"The merger is an easier way to meet some of the compliances of TITLE X." Beebe
Diana Beeber, women's field hockey coach, said, "With certain restrictions, I think a merger could be excellent. It definitely will help women's sports."
sand. "I don't think women's athletics would have to be a financial burden to men; if certain things could be accomplished in the women's program."
BEEB E SUGGESTED that when donations were made to the Williams Educational Fund, which raises money for athletic scholarships, the donor should be responsible for all donations should be used for, but not that it be used for only a men's or only a women's sport.
She suggested that all donations be divided between men's and women's sports at a constant ratio. She said an example would be to allot men's sports 70 percent of a donation and women's sports 30 percent of a donation.
Beebe also said, "It should be a condition that women's sports are coached by women and not by a man. It is not fair to have all the girls in women's sports, not good women to advance to the college level."

Alpha Epsilon Pi has been invited to meetings of the Intra-Praternity Council,
"This will enable them to see what we have to offer and us to see what they have to do."
Although the house will be predominantly ash, it will be open to any man, according.
"After they have had a chance to get off the ground, usually about a year, the IFC will consider them for membership," he said.
Other officers of Alpha Epsilon Pi are Danny Ludwig, president, Brent Reznik, and Peter Schmidt.
