However, Republicans still outnumbered Democrats by 750 voters in these five precincts. Include Lawrence residents and students in the representation for the precincts is more than 8,100.
Some people see clear evidence of a conservative trend among students, although its impact on parties remains difficult to determine.
Colleen Morrow, executive director of the College Republican National Committee in Washington, D.C., said, "The ideology of the students now is toward more fiscal conservatism."

ALEXANDER ASTIN, a professor at the University of California in Los Angeles, has completed a 19-year study of political opinions among freshmen students around the country. Based on his findings, Astin said, students today are not so much politically conservative as they simply are materialistic.
"The Republicans this year have just managed to appeal to self-interest much more than they did in the past."

At the University of Kansas, the College Young Democrats list a membership of 250 students. The College Republicans have about 150 members, according to Jack Sippel, public relations chairman for the College Republicans.
SIPPEL SAID HE saw a definite trend

"Students now are looking for more cautious solutions," he said. "They're not looters."
Kirstin Buerbach Myers, president of College Young Democrates, said that many students' support for Reagan was a result not only in the criticism as it was of ignorance of the issues.
"We have a lot of members whose roommates have changed from Republicanis to Democratis because they have become persuaded by the issues," she said.

Retail liquor stores will be closed as a result of the 1949 Kansas Liquor Control Act.
"The way the law reads," Hazard said, "the liquor stores must be closed until the police arrive."
THE 1837 CEREAL MALT Beverage Act requires taverns to be closed and the 1965 Kansas Private Clubs Act allows clubs to remain open.
"These laws have been amended and changed over the years," Hazzard said. "But, the old adage of not being able to buy booze on election day is pretty much true."

"THE ONES WHO THINK about it usually stock up," she said. "But you can bet there will be a lot of people waiting outside at 7 p.m. There usually is."
"Personally, I kind of enjoy the day off," she said. "And the evening business does picks."
Wallace said. "Being closed makes sense on election day if it's consistent. It won't hurt us."
At the Jayhawk Cafe, Wallace will eagerly await the closing of the polls.
Shirley Barrand, owner of Barrand Retail Laupon, 204W. 21st St., said she didn't mind the change.
"All the law really does" he said, "is build our thirst until the 7 o'clock hour when the latch comes off and we can start partying."

With students' minor mechanical problems out of the way, Johnson said, teachers will be able to concentrate more on the rhetorical aspects and quality of compositions.
The department is not trying to replace teachers, he said, but trying to make their jobs easier.

Students can use the critique to correct any errors before they turn in the composition, he
In addition to the plot project, the University is planning to allocate about $120,000 to establish a writing center, Johnson said. The writing center will include a library of reference materials for students and teachers.
THE WRITING CENTER, which should be fully operational by fall 1986, will employ eight of our staff.
help students with questions about writing,
he said. An administrator will run the center.
The department will also add two new programs to help students with writing, Johnson said. One program will be designed to teach students basic grammar points. The other program will help students organize thoughts andick subject matter.
The system's computer and terminals will be in the language lab on the fourth floor in Wescoe Hall. The writing center will be on the same floor in Wescoe.
Johnson said the computer system would aid students in all areas of study. The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Task Force on General Education in a report issued last month made "writing across the curriculum" a primary goal.
Gerhard Zuther, professor of English, said, "I'm very hopeful that it will be of significant use to our instruction. I hopeful, but I don't know enough to be optimistic."

football and basketball games. The package cost $45 and was available until Oct. 27, 1984.
Monte Johnson said that although the rush yesterday to buy tickets indicated some students were interested only in basketball, "at this point, it would obviously be preferable to get students to buy tickets for both sports."
"ITS A GOOD IDEA because if they don't get the football revenue they'll have to raise ticket prices. So if they can sell tickets, why not?" said Joe Babbk, a Louis junior.
Other students in line said that they thought the football team was improving and that they would buy an all-sports ticket next year.
Arl Bavel, Lawrence graduate student,
said, "I don't think there's any reason we ought to have to buy a football ticket until we get a decent team."
Of those who said they didn't like the way tickets were being sold only one had a ticket.
Some students said they thought the all-sports ticket was a good idea.
Rob Coleman, Dekalh. III., graduate student, said. "At other schools they have a priority system. If you bought a ticket last year you have a higher priority."
SOME OF THE STUDENTS complained that the basketball ticket sale was not advertised well enough and some said they didn't know what the procedure was.
