Corrections
Because an editor's error, the Kansas yesterday incorrectly listed the name of Rm McCurdy, assistant professor of music and coordinator for the KU jazz department, in a page-one item about jazz.
Because of a reporter's error, the Kansan yesterday incorrectly described a holiday celebrated in Republic of China (Taiwan). The holiday, on Oct 10, is a national holiday and not a celebration of independence. The holiday is not recognized by the People's Republic of China. Also, the Kansan incorrectly reported the location for the showing of the movie "The Green, Green Grass of Home." The movie will be shown in the auditorium of Dyche Hall.
Suggestion confuses language departments
By JOHN EGAN Staff Reporter
University officials are confused about a recent Board of Regents recommendation to discontinue the bachelor of general studies degree in three language departments while ignoring three others.
The Regents, as part of their five-year review program, recommended Sept. 20 that BGS degrees in the East Asian, Slavic and the French and Italian departments be eliminated. Missing from their report were the Spanish and Portuguese, German and classics departments. The classics department includes Latin and Greek.
Robert Spires, chairman of the department of Spanish and Portuguese, said this week, "None of us understand why the three were sinsted out. I was a little confused by it."
JERRY BERGEN, ASSOCIATE director of academic affairs for the Regents, said the Regents had overlooked the other languages during their review this summer.
"It the review didn't cover all of them," he said, "it probably should have."
Several language department chairmen support the Regents recommendation about the foreign language BGS.
"It is a rulings that makes sense," said John Williams, chairman of the department of Defense from Washington.
There doesn't seem to be any pattern of consistency here," said Gerald Mikelson, chairman of the department of Slavic languages and literatures.
But the chairmen said they were puzzled about the oversight.
Donald Watkins, chairman of the department of Germanic languages and literatures. It is a bit surprising that departments recommended only three departments for deletion."
FEW OR NO students have earned BGS degrees in any foreign language since the BGS was introduced in 1973, according to foreign language department chairmen.
foreign language.” Mikkelson said, “Practically nobody selects the BGS option if he is majoring in a foreign language.”
Andrew Tsubaki, chairman of the department of East Asian languages and cultures, said his department had decided before the Regents recommendation to stop offering this semester the no students had earned DG degrees in an East Asian language.
Students choosing the BGS option are exempt from foreign language. Western Civilization and laboratory science requirements.
Watkins said, "The BGS is not really meaningful in the foreign languages."
J. MICHAEL YOUNG, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said. "If you major in a foreign language, you might as well get a BA."
Some students working toward a foreign language degree choose a BGS because it allows them to take an unlimited number of hours in foreign language, Young said. A bachelor of arts degree limits students to 30 hours.
Although he supports the Regents recommendation, Mikkelson said the Regents might have sent a false signal that they were not supporting foreign language.
"A lot of people got the impression that in one way or another our departments were being phased out," he said.
Young said that the departments probably would act on the Regents recommendations this semester.
However, Young said he was unsure about when the BGS degrees in the Spanish and Portuguese, German and classics departments might be dropped.

Stephen rules gun law applies to reserve police

Chicken, gorilla face off Freshmen using costumes in campaign
TOPEKA - Reserve police officers may carry concealed weapons when on duty but they are subject to a state law prohibiting the carrying of concealed firearms when off duty. Attorney General Robert Stephan said yesterday.
By DAVID LASSITER
Moore sought the opinion on behalf of Lake Quivira Police Chief Michael Wilson, who asked whether reserve police officers could carry concealed weapons when off duty.
In a legal opinion to Johnson County District Attorney Dennis Moore, Stephan said people who donate time or receive nominal pay for being a volunteer reserve officer and whose primary source of income is other employment are also law enforcement agencies that are not eligible for a exemption to the state law that prohibits carrying a concealed firearm.

An oversized chicken and gorilla battled over student votes for freshmen class offices on Wescoe Beach yesterday
Jeff Fevurly, Tonganoxie sophomore and campaign manager for the Imagine Coalition, wore the chicken costume yesterday.
Fevrily said that working in the suit was hot business. He had been in the suit from 8:30 until 11:30 a.m. and then again from 12:30 until 3:00 p.m.
"But when you're in the chicken suit, it goals like forever." Fevrier said.
"I usually have someone from the coalition in plain clothes escorting me," he said. "When I attract someone over, then they can talk to them about the election and try to persuade them to vote for us."
If you're just standing there holding out sheets of paper, people walk right by you.
FEVURLY SAID THE chicken was a cheap way to attract votes. Board of Class Officers elections usually allow for small campaign budgets. The Imagine Coalition's
total campaign budget was spent on the chicken costume and two signs
Wearing the suit is fun, said Fevrurly
Weirding the suit but not the smile. "People smile and point at you," he said, "I can talk to anyone that I want in the suit, because it is familiar."
Craig Abraham, Look Coalition's presidential candidate and winner of the election, said members of his coalition had adopted the gorilla mascot because they knew that the chicken would be out on election day soliciting votes
"We wanted some way to draw attention to our coalition." Abraham said.
ABOUT 750 FRESHMEN elected Craig Abraham, Wichita, president; Brady Stanton, Prairie Village, vice president; Amy Varney, Prairie Village, secretary, and Margaret Salisbury, Topeka, treasurer, according to Jennifer Kasten, freshmen elections chairwoman.
the gorilla plucked the chicken yesterday. The Look Coalition swept the freshman class elections.
The ballot included three other coalitions — Action. Advantage and Imagine — and independent candidates.
Four years ago, Dan Lowe, senior class president, introduced chicken mascots in freshmen class office campaigns.
He has used the chicken or a similar costume each time he has run for a class presidency, said his roommate George Heinlein, Kansas City, Mo., senior Lowe found the chicken to be effective way to capture attention during his campaigns
Lowe was elected as freshman, sophomore junior and senior class president.
LOWE, A MEMBER of the Pih Gamma Delta house, loaned the chicken idea to one of his fraternity's pledges, hoping that the chicken would bring the freshman the lack it
The pledge, Steve Wanamaker, Leawood freshman and presidential candidate of the Imagine Coalition, lost the election despite the lucky chicken.
Debbie Krumme, Advantage Coalition's secretarial candidate, said she thought the chicken was a good idea.
"But I don't know if we can win against a chicken and a gorilla," she said.

Krumme said that she didn't think the image coalition was wrong. The evidence for the election issues
