IFC, TKE Dispute Rush Incident, Fraternity Faces Possible Fine
The Interfaternity Council (IFC) judicial board yesterday recommended that Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE) fraternity be fined $80 for alleged violations of rush procedures, according to R. Dennis Mullen, Park senior and president of TKE
Mullen said the recommendation was made because TKE allowed Jeffrey Titus, Great Bend freshman and former Delta Tau Delta pieced his shoes in the TKE house after graduation with a DTP.
IF's constitution prohibits a student who has deplored a fraternity from living in the university, and is then expelled.
Frazey, Hill City senior and FC president, refused to comment on the board's action. He said a formal statement would be issued by the judicial board today.
Mullen first reported last night that the judicial board had levied the fine and had ordered that Titus leave the TKE house. That statement early this morning, however.
Mullen said early today that the judicial board's action was no more than a recommendation that had to be approved by the IFC floor.
The IFC executive committee had recommended that TKE be fined $800 and
placed on social probation for six months. Instead, Mullen said yesterday, the board recommended a day that Titus had stayed in the house. If Titus remained in the house after Sept. 10, Mullen said, the board recommended an extension of his term as president of TKE's volunte rights at IFC meetings.
"We had a house meeting tonight on this whole issue," Mullen said this morning. "We decided we can see the feeling of the IFC on this issue, and we want to do everything we can to support the goals of the IFC."

it was understated. I double-checked with them past week about the upcoming part of my week.
Seaver said that the chancellor's office was behind the move for secrecy. However, Dykes denied he ordered the reports be withheld.
"All four committee chairmen met with me last week," Dykes said. "As I understood it, they just wanted to get them on a plane and edited before they released them."
Dykes said that the reports would not be withheld permanently.
One of the charges that has been leveled at the committees is that they were working under undue hustle. All four charmers said their argument was time to study the question, however.
Angino said the four chairmen met Friday afternoon to discuss the general consensus that the substance of the reports would be revealed to AUAP tomorrow.
"It'sPatently untrue," he said. "All of us felt very put out about this. But if I know Archae Djekes, I think the faculty will have a chance to make any change in the current tenure program."
"There will be a fair and open discussion of the roots," he said.
Ernest Angino, professor of geology and civil engineering and chairman of the committee studying the impact of tenure decisions, said the decision to withhold the reports was based on the chairman's interpretations of their responsibilities.
"It would compromise the chancellor to release the reports," Angino said. "They are his—or his predecessor's—committees in decision on how to release the information."
THE STUDENT Senate will consider means of funding clubs and organizations on its contingency list fund at the senate's meeting. The committee will also join the Jayhawk Rooft of the Kansas Union

In fact, in separate interviews, Moesen and Angino both replied with the same response.
"It's my personal opinion," they both
sad, "that work expands to fill the time allotted to it."
While three of the chairmen refused to discuss their committees' conclusions, they all spoke freely about the procedures used in the probe.
Divinazenas and the Moeser's committee both used questionnaires distributed to them. They were asked about
"I know for a fact that all of the committee talked to other faculty members before reaching their conclusions," Angio said. "Calling our meetings 'secret and closed' like Frances Ingemann did in the Daily Kansan is a bunch of bull. Some of these people don't know what they're talking about."
At least one dissenting report might be filed, Angino said. However, he declined to identify the dissenter and termed the points of disagreement "minor."
Mullen had said before the house meeting last night that TKE would appeal the action. Afterward, he said, "We're going along with everything the IFC says on this."
Moeser said his committee had had little internal conflict because compromise internal conflict because compromise
Srinivasan said all his committee's decisions were unanimous.
The four committees were established
14 by the former Chancellor Raymond
Nichol.
"All we did was review the opinions indicated on the questionaires and write the opinions of the majority into our report," he said.
Handley said her committee dealt with the least controversial topics and, therefore, there was very little conflict between members.
"The IFC asked us not to talk to the Kanan about the decision," Mullen said last night. "But these are the facts and they won't hurt anybody if stated accurately."
The facts, he said then, were that Titus was technically not a pledge because he had never paid pledge fees, although Delta Trau did pay pledge fees for him and he had signed pledge cards.
He asked the committees to submit recommendations to the Faculty Rights, Privileges and Responsibilities Committee of the Faculty Senate by Sept. 4. The committee was ordered to combine the reports and forward a single report to SenEx by Sept. 18. SenEx must submit a final report to Dykes Oct. 2.

the commission transferred $1,378 from the allotment for renovation of the police building to a new allotment called East Lawrence lighting.
The report will be sent prior to Sept. 14 to the Department of Treasury by the city hall.
Don Schake, Neighborhood Development Program director, detailed the current use of the $50,000 federal revenue funds allotted to the East Lawrence Improvement Association. Schake said the funds were being used to improve the school facilities and the work was being done by local help to keep the money in East Lawrence.
with the funds, the association will replace or install 50 new mercury-vapor street light units, he said. Considerable damage was done to sidewalks also is being done in the area.
Work crews have already used chemicals to kill grass and weeds which grew between bricks in the sidewalks, he said. They are now planning to eliminate an overgrowth of trees and bushes in alleyways and will later plant them or oil 21 arches in East Lawrence.
the Hillcrest Shopping Center. The proposed building site, which is near the main east-west driveway, is an area with an existing traffic problem and would increase the conflict, according to a report submitted by the city planning staff.
More business will be opening in the city that will be even heavier, Mayor Hamilton said.
Yesterday's denial was the second for the photo shop's request for approval of a site plaque.
At the suggestion of Buford Watson, city manager, commissioners asked the city planning staff to make a recommendation where to place the roadway for the proposed study. The commissioner made the special study of the area being done by the Obinger and Smith firm as a guideline.
A lack of federal funds and the difficulty of connecting Haskell to Massachusetts is slowing down plans to begin engineering, Walson said.
Mayor Nancy Hambleton praised the association "for getting a lot of mileage out there."
In response to a letter from John Weatherwax, 401 Missouri, concerning water drainage problems near Fourth Street and the Kansas Turnpike access road, Mayor Ham堡ion suggested the planting of a grass such as canary grass could stabilize the area where water passes through, she said.
A proposal that would develop a monitoring system with federal funds to see that the needs of different kinds of school children are met was accepted yesterday by the Lawrence School District 497 Board of Education.

Plan for Retarded Okayed
The proposal, which would provide in divalual attention for problem learners, was designed by Jerry Chaffin and Bob Campbell, both professors of education at Johns Hopkins University. June Smith, coordinator of pupil personnel, other Lawrence public school personnel.
The proposal would be an additional service to an already functioning program that integrates mentally retarded students into regular classrooms. The program the
federal proposal will be working with us currently at Pickney School, Smith said.
The Pinckney program is integrating 11 educable mentally retarded students, 11 Kindergarten II students and 16 students who have mild learning disabilities, Smith said. Kindergarten has been a transitional school where they aren't ready to go to first grade.
"A full service school is one that makes available all the services, materials, tutoring, special classes and other needs that each child has," said Chaffin.
The board approved the district request for $9,000 in Title IV federal funding to cover overhead costs.
