Prices Generally Stable
Food prices covered by the weekly Consumer Protection Association survey generally remained stable last week.
However, the price of t-Bone steak went up 54 cents a pound at both Kroger stores while dropping 10 cents a pound at A&P. The Kroger increase brought the price, which had dropped from $1.68 to $1.84, during the previous week, back up to $1.69.
Other stores showed no change in steak price.
Average prices for a pound of other meat items are: cut-up frying chicken, 56 cents; regular ground beef, 96 cents, and Oscar Meyer hot dogs, $1.47. These prices reflect declines of one to two cents a pound since last week.
The price of a one-pound package of bacon declined at two stores, bringing the cost to $1.99.

Gay Lib Ponders Court Ruling
By DON LEVY
Kansas Staff Reporter
Leaders of Lawrence Gay Liberation, Inc. (LGL) are meeting this week to develop a reaction to the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in *Suit against the University of Kansas*.
The court's decision ends a 3-year legal
Allen Hires Truck Driver Names Whomper Board
The names of seven of the nine members on the new board of directors for the Reclamation Center were announced last week. The principal faculty paoen and director of the Whomper,
Dennis Brothers, Lawrence graduate student and LGL coordinator, said yesterday that LGL hadn't been contacted by its attorneys and that he couldn't speculate on the meaning of the court's decision.
The board members are: Stephen Hill, manager of Jayhawk Fiber Form Co.; David Miller, former KU student body president; James Hodgson, Allen Press; Kathy Clark, Macdonald, Idaho, junior and former manager of the Reclamation Center; Mary Lou Sherman, Lawrence housewife; Allen; and Brad Walker, newly appointed manager of the Whomener.
Reynolds, a pianist, is a former member of the rock band. The Penetrations.
He said his main qualifications for the manager's job were, "I'm good at lifting things. I can be energetic when I want to be."
Reynolds said that he had little experience in keeping financial records and that Miller probably would be board of management, would handle mail of the bookkeeping.
He said he hadn't met any of the other members yet, except Allen, who told him that he was on the job.
Reynolds began work Tuesday at the Whomber. He said he had spent his first two days working on crushing cans and taking a load of cans to Kansas City.
Reynolds said that he wouldn't be paid more than $2 an hour, but that his salary would be contingent on how much material the Reclamation Center recycled.
He hasn't finished building the fence around the alley area where cans and bottles are deposited because he has been dumped in the space in the warehouse. Reynolds said.
"For the last two days I've been about the only one down there," he said.
Concerning his immediate goals, pools said. "I like to try to see if I can do it."
Reynolds will be at the Whompron regularly from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and when volunteers come out of d-town deliveries are made, Allen said.
Allen said she had also hired a new truck driver, Darrine Katz, yesterday.
"He was out today picking up stuff," she said, "I got three thank-you calls."
battle between the LGL and the University, Brothers said.
The court turned down Monday a writ of certiorari, or a request that the case be heard by the court, according to Charles Oldfather. University attorney.
THE GROUP'S request for recognition was denied by former Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers Jr. who said that University funds shouldn't be allocated to support the sexual proclivities of a group that might be violating state law.
The battle began in 1970 when the LGL sought recognition as a campus organization to "provide an understanding of sexual among the people of Kansas."
The case then was tried in December 1971 in the federal district court in Topeka. The LGL lost, and the case was appealed to the 19th Court Circuit of Appeals in Denver, Colo. Attorney William Kunster represented the LGL in the appeal.
The LGL lost in the court of appeals.
Lue Hubbell, Lawrence graduate student and LGL treasurer, said yesterday that the LGL's Lawrence attorney would probably advise York to find out the details of the decision.
Hubbell said Justice William O. Douglas may have written a dissent, which would be helpful to the LGL in formulating a policy for any future actions.
"We really don't know what we're going to do. All I can say is that we're going to do something."
The LGL may discuss the issue at its regular Monday night meeting, Hubbell
The court's decision came as no surprise, Brothers said.
"The Supreme Court has been refusing to hear Gay Lab cases," he said.

A petition that would abolish the $2 transportation fee paid by each student to subsidize the bus system for next semester will be presented to the Student Senate Executive Committee (StudEx) today by the City of San Antonio City sophomore and student senator.
The petition, if approved by the Student Senate, will comment that the Board of Students abolish
Rolfs said last night that he would introduce the petition in the hope of eventually making the bus system self-supporting.
"I am totally in favor of the bus system," Rolfs said, "but I don't think students who don't ride the buses should have to pay for it."
Buckley said he didn't think Rolfs had given the petition much thought.
Mert Buckley, Wichita senior and student body president, said at the senate meeting last night that budget adjustments usually "cuber stapped" by the regents.
He said this $20,000 and the money collected from the sale of bus passes next semester should more than cover the cost of the bus system for the spring semester.
StudEx to Consider Ending Bus Subsidy
Rolfs said that according to figures he had obtained, there would be about $20,000 left in the transportation fund after this semester.
He said he didn't think there would be enough money to operate the bus system
next semester without the transportation fee.
"Unless Ed has done a more thorough study than any other else at this point in time, I would think it extremely chancy to make such a bold statement," Buckley said.
Rolls also objected to a proposal made by Buckley in a list of alternatives for funding
the Curriculum and Instruction Survey and LA&S 48 courses.
nuckety had proposed that some money
over from the bus system could be used
for a project.
"This is only one of many alternatives that merits further study," Buckley said.
