Condom machines will be on campus
By Jennifer Schultz
Kansan staff writer
Condoms will be available in KU residence hall hanging machines next semester, David Ambler, vice consultant for student affairs, said last night at a Student Senate meeting.
The condoms will be sold in existing machines and should be in place by the beginning of the semester. The cost of the condoms has not been determined, Ambler said.
He said mechanical adjustments to the machines and orders for the condoms would also be made before the end of this semester.
The condoms will be removed from the vending machines during the summer because mostly minors will live in the residence halls. Amber said. The University will conduct several campdings during the summer.
The Office of Student Affairs has been considering including the condoms in residence hall bathrooms for years, Ambler said.
"No one is doing this lightly," he said. "We are very much aware of problems of society."
Schreiner said Ambler told him of the decision in a letter sent to him Nov. 1. According to Schreiner, Ambler said in the letter that the University would discontinue distributing the condoms if the vending machines were vandalized or if the condoms
want to be sensitive to that. We also want to encourage students to act responsibly."
Ambler said the decision to make condoms available in residence halls was made informally by instructors in the last several weeks.
Senate opposes engineering fee
Mike Schreiner, student body president, said he thought that Ambler chose to make the announcement at the Senate meeting because Senate played a vocal role in the issue.
Student Senate passed a resolution last night stating that Student Senate adamantly opposes a proposal that would charge engineering students a $15-a-credit hour fee.
"Student Senate has been presuring the administration to do it for quite a while." Schrere said. "We're also authority to do anything about it."
Last year Senate passed a resolution stating it wanted condons to be distributed on campus and asked KU to study a condom vending machine program used at the University of Minnesota.

The resolution also requests that the School of Engineering consult and include engineering students and Senate in making decisions affecting students.

Mike Schreiner, student body president, said the resolution would be sent to the Board of Regents
The fee was proposed by the deans of engineering at the University of Kansas, Kansas State University and Wichita State University. The proposal, designed to help schools cover the cost of equipment used in engineering courses, will be presented to the Regents in November.
David Suroff, engineering senator, said, "If engineering equipment costs are going up, then raise our tuition gradually. But one school will always cost more to operate than others. Students should be able to choose their careers by interest and not what they can pay."
"One of things I think (senators) ought to be sure about is that they are representing the engineering profession."
Locke said 40 percent of the engineering schools in the nation charged engineers a special fee to maintain, operate and replace laboratory equipment.
But Carl Locke, dean of engineering, said the fee was necessary to finance needed equipment
Scherner said this was not the first time a restricted fee had been imposed on students.
Dean sees no alternative to fee

Although student senators are opposed to an equipment fee, the dean of engineering sees no alternative to retain the quality of the School of Engineering.

"Without a substantial increase in funding to the school, we are going to degrade the quality of education," said Carl Locke, dean of engineering. "At this point, engineering equipment is not being funded by the state. We have been forced to hire private source sources, which is an uncertain source."
Locke said the tee was needed to repair and replace existing equipment, including com-
Locke said that although engineering senators passed a referendum against the fee, they did not propose other ways to guarantee the use of equipment and education in the school.
David Suroff, engineering senator, said the

legislators threatened to cut KU appropriations.
Surroff said a concern was that a fee in one school could aid a precedent and create a fear of being prosecuted.
Locke said. "The fees may spread, but they may be needed. While students may think they are paying a lot for their tuition, it is lower than many schools."
Brian Cullin, president of Engineering Student Council, said he opposed the fee because it would apply only to engineering students, and that he felt freshmen need freshmen away from the engineering field.
Shaun Nicholson, co-president of an engineering fraternity, Tau Beta Pi, said he supported the fee because he saw the need to fund the university's programs in other means to finance the improvements.
Pat Warren, Student Senate Executive Committee chairperson, said it was possible that in 1984-85 the Legislature would have reduced KU's budget by the amount the University raised through the

Schreiner also said the proposed engineering fee did not meet the Regents requirement to explore all other possibilities of financing before imposing restricted fees.

Tiger men's basketball coach Bill Morse recapped his memories of the small-town hero.
"Boh is tremendous," Morse said. "We still replay the videotape of our championship game and hear his voice. He also made a recruiting tape for the team, which not only is great for the recruits, but also for the fans and players."
Morse said Davis was recognized both on and off the air.
"In Hays, he was always out in the
camp, and everybody knew him and liked him."
Davis went back to television for a short time, but he continued working with radio. He began hosting "Tiger Basketball with Bill Morse" after the popularity of the basketball team began increasing. The minute segments appended night eight a week and featured Davis focusing questions about the week's games to Coach Morse.
"He is a great interviewer," Morse said. "He asks questions that are easy to answer, and he always says the right thing. He's among the best in the country, especially in New York."
Davis said that he enjoyed television but that he thought he enjoyed radio more.
he said one of those options would be for the est money for the School of
Not only does Davis credit the small town with his rose to fame, but it was also in Bayside that he met his wife.
In 1864, the Davies and their son Steve left Hays and moved to Lawrence.
"I had done some work in the past, filling in for Tom Hedrick. I also worked for Learfield Communications, which is the rights holder for KU athletic broadcasts," Davis said when speaking of his breakthrough in Lawrence.
iRE currently works in the morning at KMZR radio in addition to broadcasting for
Davis said he appreciated the benefits of his job.
"I just got back from a lunchme with Coach Mason," Davis said. "He brought a couple of players, and broadcaster came up and asked Williams, (does) the same during basketball."
Linda Davis and Steve, 9, also travel with Bob Davis whenever they can. He speaks proudly of his son as he points to Steve's regular seat in Allen Field House. Davis said that Steve never missed a game and that he had met all the players.
"We're happy here," he said, grinning.
And his faps are too.
"It's going to be pretty difficult to duplicate 30 wins like last year, but they'll be much more difficult."
"I think he learned math by looking up at the scoreboard," he said with a smile.
Davis recalled the 1988 Kansas-Kansas State game in Pontiac, Mich., as one of his most memorable games. Kansas defeated Kansas State in the Regional Finals and earned the right to the Final Four. He also remembered the support the fans of both teams gave each other in the games preceding the finals.
Davis said he enjoyed football, but as it became colder, he was ready to move inside Allen Field House. He's excited about playing basketball season and proges a good team.
Kansas fans can continue to enjoy the vows he gave. He has no plans to leave the team.
"It was great to see that kind of support," he said.
