BySTEVEN LEWIS
Kansas Staff Reporter
The Association of Mexican-American Students (AMAS) will ask the federal government to investigate the University of Kansas unless the University's attitude toward nonblack racial minorities changes, Becky Mendoza, Topena graduate student and board member of AMAS, said yesterday.
Mendoza said AMAS would ask the Department of Health, Education and Welfare to investigate the University's action oledge to aid racial minorities.
"This year we've been offered a part-time graduate assistant, but a part-time recruiter doesn't have the mobility and time to travel seeking Chicanos."
"This is the biggest university in Kansas, yet it doesn't offer a full-time Chicano recruiter," Menduca said. "K-State, the University of Missouri at Kansas City and even Garden City Junior College all have full-time Chicano recruiters."
She said the University's minority affairs office was completely dominated by blacks.

"We have offered this position to AMAS," he said.
Jackson said he was assisted by a part-time American Indian recruiter and had an assistant to conduct the training.
Jackson defended his recruiting, saying,
"When I go to a high school I recruit all
you."
"Sure I recruit more blacks than Mexican-Americans, but that's only because there are more blacks proportionally."

6 Easy Ways to Save Money
In this difficult era of mounting taxes and rising costs, everyone feels the urge to save. Substantial savings may matter in many ways, such as . . .
1. Give up wearing clothes. If you don't wear them, they won't wear out. Thus you won't need to replace them.
2. Do without shaves and haircuts, finger waves and manicures.
3. Give up eating and drinking.
4. Sell your furniture store.
5. Live in the park, and save rent altogether.
6. Walk, don't ride.
Take your pick, pals.
But if you feel these methods are too rigorous or impractical, there's still another way of conserving cash. That is, shop at Lawrence's most fun place to shop
