Station Owners Wary Of Gas Price Boost

Collins said his business had been able to survive because his station offset profit margins.
When the final financial data are completed by the computer center, J. J. Wilson, University of Kansas housing director, said yesterday he expected an increase of 25 to 40 occupants in KU residence halls as compared to last year.

Bob Candin, accountant for the housing office, said he thought final figures would be
At this time last year, 684 rooms were vacant and no residence hall was full. Hashinger Hall is the only fully occupied hall this year.
The latest report indicated 3,153 users were living in double occupancy rooms and 758 were living in single rooms. Six hundred seventy rooms were vacant.
The only coed hall that didn't report a loss of residents is Haskinger, Oliver, McColm and Ellsworth Halls all have more vacancies this year.
