Steak Prices Drop by 14 $^{¢}$
The prices of T-bone steak continued to decline at four stores last week. Average price in the 10 supermarkets surveyed by the Consumer Protection Association is now $1.54 a pound, compared with $1.68 last week and $1.84 Sept. 24.
Other meat prices included in the weekly survey remained relatively stable last week. Cut-up frying chicken is now
averaging 57 cents a pound, down two cents from last week. Regular ground beef averages or cents a pound this week, up 10 cents, but hot dogs are still averaging $1.49 a pound.
The steady decline in the price of T-bone steak may be partly in response to the publication of the survey. CPA urges consumers to compare prices of other beef
items before drawing any conclusions about the least expensive place to buy beef.
The weekly food price survey is based on a list of 55 items compiled by students to reflect student tastes. From this list, two separate pieces of information are published every week. One is a partial list of individual items and their prices. The other is a market basket total based on all the items which were found at all stores.

Student Opinion To Be Sought On Activity Fee
Students will have the opportunity to make suggestions about the distribution of their student activity fees at 7:30 p.m. in the Kansas Room of the Kansas Union.
Rick McKernan, Salina senior and chairman of the Finance and Auditing committee, said last night at the Student Senate Executive meeting (StudEx) that changes in the allocation of the fee would depend upon the recommendations of the students and the size of the crowd that attended.
"I'm not saying that there will be any changes made," said McKernan, "but the committee would like to give the students a voice in the distribution of their money."
He said any changes that were made would apply to next fall's activity fee.
Presently, the full time student's $12
activity fee is divided this way: senate,
$1.50; intercollegiate athletics, $5;
University Daily Kansan, $35; University
Broadway, concert series 90 cents;
intramurals, 20 cents; organizations
councils, $2.30.

Kelly said he thought Veteran's day probably had been designated a holiday because it was nearly in the middle of Thanksgiving and there were classes to Thanksgiving vacation.
Registrar William Kelly said the 1973-74 school calendar had been originally outlined by a committee consisting of the academic heads of the six state colleges. He also asked the Board of Regents. The calendar then went to the calendar committee at

Quadagno...
"I THINK KU has to come to grips with
that college enrollments are going
to decrease."
- If a department has a faculty member,
* if the department has a have had confidence
* in that individual.
"If you've got confidence in the people hired, then they should receive tenure as they have in the past," Quandagno says. "Of the three people in biological sciences that were terminated last spring, their job was replaced at Harvard, Cornell and Berkeley."
These termination letters were later rescinded, he says.

Campus parking is another issue about which Quadagno has a strong opinion.
"Theparking situation at KU is the worst I ever seen." he saves.
Quidigno is currently parking in O-zone and paying 20 cents a day because of the flooding.
"I owe $125, and they (Security and Parking) won't issue me a zone sticker," he says. "The most frustrating thing is that I was parking in the right color zones but the left."
