IN THE SPEECH. Budig said there was no place at the University for "bigotry, intolerance, racial or sexual discrimination, anti-Semitism and the like," and reaffirmed that the University must maintain an open forum for the expression of ideas.
Cobb's letter says that the speech excerpt was being distributed "because recent events have called into question its meaning. Discussions about the Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas — its registration by the University and its funding by the Student Senate — have been widespread. Such discussion is entirely appropriate."
"What is not appropriate, however, and what will not be tolerated by the University, is the attendant harassment, intimidation and threats. Whatever attitudes individuals may hold, those individuals are not to be subjected to coercive or threatening behavior."
THE LETTER SAYS the registration of an organization with the University does not constitute approval or disapproval of the organization by the University.
Robert Shelton, associate professor of communication studies and religious studies, said he would draft a letter of appreciation to Cobb on behalf of the faculty members who had signed the petition requesting administration response to GLSOK attacks.
"Basically, we are saying that we appreciate this strong, positive response to the issues raised and the concerns we have." Shelton said. "We want to encourage as wide dissemination of the administration position as possible, to students as well as faculty.
'WE ARE INVOLVED in various ways as faculty, and we stand ready to be of assistance to the administration to further develop skills to similar positive leadership in the future.'
"We open the lounge a little sooner," she said. "But we sure don't wear red."

Temple said the crews at Memorial Stadium would need extra help to handle the crowd.
Fans are fans, but the cornhusker crowd sometimes becomes too boisterous. Temple
"OUR OPERATION IS prepared for any size crowd." Temple said. "We'll have every area of the stadium covered, whether we have 30,000 or 52,000."
"Any time you have that many people who travel together gathered in one place, they're bound to get a little excitable," he said. "And the fact is, you understand that they get a little cocky."
Some former Nebraskans left their Big Red lovelties at home after coming to KU

now. Whenever I talk to my family, we hash it out, but I don't really follow the Nebraska games that closely anymore."
"I'm predicting a serious blowout by Nebraska," he said. "Nebraska's too big, too strong. The third and fourth quarters will be a track meet."
Still, Frakes predicted the Cornhuskers would win. 44-10
Alfred Rodriguez, an assistant professor of curriculum and instruction who received his doctorate from Nebraska in 1978, said he would love to see the Jawkins win.
"Being away from the Big Red environment, one begins to see how obnoxious that whole football fanaticism is," Rodriguez said. "When I was at Nebraska, I went religiously to the games every Saturday. You can't argue with success, but I just think the fans have their priorities a little mixed up sometimes."
Moynihan said the United States did not know if the Soviet freighter was carrying 'MIG fighters but added "we have reason to think it might be."
SEN. BARRY GOLDWATER, R-Ariz. chairman of the Senate intelligence committee, said that president Reagan would be justified in taking "strong action", including the use of force, if Nicaragua brings in MiG-21s.
Nicaragua flatly denied that the freighter Bakuriani was carrying the high performance Soviet fighters, but insisted on
its right to buy jets to protect itself The Defense Ministry refused to identify the cargo.
The Soviet Union declined to respond directly to reports that the freighter was possibly carrying crates of unassembled MIGs.
Instead, the official Tass news agency published the Sandinista government's statement accusing the United States of an invasion to set the stage for an invasion of Nicaragua.
In Mexico City, Czechoslovak Prime Minister Lubomir Strougal told reporters the freighter unloaded only helicopters.
"I WAS INFORMED last night that a sheet boat docked at a Nicaraguan port and a sailboat crashed."
on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
He did not say what types of helicopters were unloaded.
Washington said there have been continu- contacts between the United States and the Soviet Union regarding the freighter but declined to say whether Dobrynin had called.
NICARAGUAN FOREIGN MINISTER Miguel d'Escoto handed a protest note to U.S. Ambassador Harry Bergold in Managua charging that violation of its airspace was a prelude to "direct military intervention" by U.S. forces.
"If the United States attacks Nicaragua, there would be very grave consequences for all the world, and the United States would lose prestige," he said.
Britain's Independent Television News reported that the Soviet ambassador to Washington, Anatoly Dobrynin assured the UK that it did not need to worry about the cargo.
In California, White House spokesman Martin Fitzwater said the administration also was concerned about the presence of at least 10 U.S. Navy Petrolet ships in and around Nicaragua.

you want to make sure you do this because if you bite into un-rehydrated horseradish, it'll curl your socks."
Hawley, whose bachelor's degree is in astronomy, said he didn't have many opportunities to look at the stars while he was in space.
HAWLEY SAID THE film he was showing, taken by a large movie camera on the shuttle, was part of a movie that would be released next spring called 'The Dream is Coming.'
"The stars look as good from space as from a dark pasture in Kansas," he said.
Hawley also presented to Steve Shawl, professor of astronomy, a jacket of the book "Out of the Darkness: The Story of the Planet Pluto." Shawl had had many physics and economy graduates of KU sign the cover, and Hawley carried it with him on Discovery.
"It was certainly my pleasure to have it on board with us as a remembrance of KU and the program that certainly helped me get up there in the first place," he said.
"We were all very proud to participate in this flight. I'm happy to be able to come back and report to you that we did 140 percent of what we set out to do, because as the flight ground always manages to think of things they would do you do that they haven't grown of before.
"I'm proud to be a member of that crew and to proud to be a representative of NASA on this mission."
"And as I tell everyone everywhere I go. I'm proud to be a representative of the University of Kansas."
