Resolution on South Africa killed By HOLLIE MARKLAND Staff Reporter The Student Senate Finance Committee last night voted 5-4 to kill a resolution prohibiting student organizations from buying products manufactured by companies with ties to South Africa. The Finance Committee questioned the feasibility of the resolution because it lacked specifics about how student organizations could participate that had no connections with South Africa. ACCOUNTING TO STATE statutes, any student organization that makes a purchase costing more than $150 must go through a bid process. The organization cannot choose the company it buys from, and the bid goes to the lowest responsible bidder. If it had passed, the resolution would have been a statement against racial segregation as practiced in South Africa, said Chris Barrick of the ad hoc committee in South Africa. Dennis "Boog" Highbierger, student body vice president and sponsor of the resolution, said he would not reintroduce the bill to the Finance Committee, although the Student "TM TIRED OF picking a dead horse," Highberger said. "I suppose this is sort of a defeat, but this won't stop us. We'll keep working." Senate Minority Affairs Committee was still considering a resolution that asks the Kansas University Endowment Association to divest from South Africa. Sandra Binyon, Wichita senior, who was at the meeting, said she did not think the issue affected students at the University of Kansas. She said the senate should drop consideration of the resolution because it would not benefit students. But committee member Lynn Anthony said that in the past the senate had not hesitated to deal with social issues, for example a recent effort to boycott the Adolf Coors Co. "This is not a student-oriented resolution," Binyon said. "I don't think Student Senate should be bothered with it." "If we are going to attack one moral issue," she said, "why not another?" THE RESOLUTION WOULD have required student organizations that receive money from the $24 student activity fee to spend their money with companies that do no business in South Africa. The resolution called for a social responsibility subcommittee to enforce the spending limitations, but the resolution did not detail how the committee would enforce the resolution. The resolution did not detail how violations of the resolution would be handled. Some members of the committee called the resolution unworkable. Eric Wynkoop, graduate student senator, also said that the resolution was not a legitimate issue for the Senate to handle. "There has never been a float in the homecoming parade against apartheid," Wynkoo said. "Radical groups on campus have always been concerned, but not the student group. The club is in Student Senate, it is bringing it up and saying it's student issue, and it's not." Student organizations received a total of $938,000 from the student activity fee in fiscal year 1985. In other business, the Finance Committee voted to give $1,098.93 to the Associated Students of Kansas Task Force '84. The money will go for posters and pamphlets to promote the ASK voter registration drive. Union burger battle hot topic for Senate By JOHN HANNA Staff Reporter The Student Senate tonight will move a battle over burgers in the Kansas Union to its front burner. In their first meeting of the semester, student senators will vote on a proposal to override the veto of a petition asking the Union Memorial Board to include a corporate-owned fast food franchise in the renovation plans for the Kansas Union. IN APRIL, THE STUDENT Senate approved the petition, but Carla Vogel, student body president and Dennis "Boog" Highsmith, student body vice president, vetoed it the next day. The petition is the first item on the agenda (for the 7 p.m. meeting in 100 Smith Hall. A two-thirds vote of the full Senate is required to override the veto. Russ Piacek, Nunemaker senator and co-sponsor of the petition, said yesterday that tonight's meeting would be a forum for debate on the petition. A fast-food restaurant like Burger King Corp. or McDonald's Corp. in the Union would be popular with students and convenient for them, Ptacek said. It also would allow the Union to lower its book prices, he said, by funneling restaurant profits back into the Union. "I think this just reflects their unwillingness to conform to what the majority of students want for food services," he said. Vogel and Highberger's veto was not right. Plateck "AT MOST, THEIR vet was a glorified letter of rejection. Their arguments are absurd, and they seem to be grasping at straws to defeat this proposal." But Highberger said yesterday that a fast-food restaurant would not fit in with the University atmosphere and would take control of food services away from the Union. Highberger said he was somewhat annoyed with the issue. He said he hoped discussion of the issue would help. "I guess it is a concern that I should be more patient with, but I think it really is trivial," he said. "I just think a few people are behind the idea. universities. Placeck said the issue would die if the Union Memorial Board did not take action on the petition this fall. I don't. That's where all of our major differences come from." Russ thinks capitalism is a good idea, and SINCE LAST SEPTEMBER, Ptacek has been working with McDonald's and Burger King, trying to bring the fast food chains into the plans for renovating the Union. The Union Memorial Board has been planning a $4.1 million renovation of the building for about 16 months, said Jm Long. The project was done still is considering proposals, Long said. The board should have a final plan prepared by this fall. Long said, and renovation could begin in late 1985 or early 1986. He said the final plan probably would include a fast-food restaurant in the Union's food services, whether it was owned by a corporation or by the Union. A committee of the board, acting on a presentation by Ptacek, has been considering the proposal for a fast-food restaurant since the end of April. Black unrest causes riots in S. Africa By HEATHER R. BIGGINS Staff Reporter Riding over rent increases and the denial of black rights in South Africa last week left 31 dead, 300 injured, and some South African students at KU concerned. Black unrest came the day South Africa's new constitution took effect, Sept. 3. Under the new system, South Africa's white ruler minority gives Asian and mixed-race minorities limited political rights while still denying representation to blacks, who make up 73 percent of the population. One way to reduce the threat of 22 million non-whites against 4.5 million whites is to separate the blacks from the rest of the political system, according to Marion Scheepers, Potchefstroom, South Africa, graduate student, who is white. "It's a dangerous way of living when the minority governs the majority," he said. "To ensure white control, the government reduces the threat by allowing some political rights to the Asians and coloreds while continuing to exclude blacks." Scheepers said that coloreds were of mixed white and black descent. Non-whites, excluding blacks, have registered widespread indifference and opposition when only 30 percent of the registered mixed-race voters went to the polls Aug. 22, and 20 percent of the Asian voters went a week later. But Paul Mamabolo, Johannesburg, South Africa, sophomore, who is black, said. "The Asians and coloreds are telling our government that they don't want to play their game and that they won't betray the blacks." Aparthiet foes say inferior black schooling, rent increases and unmet demands by blacks for equal rights sparked the violence that began in usually docile rural townships near Mamabolo's home town. The only way to resolve the unrest is to increase boycott, riots, international pressure and for leaders to meet and address the problem of an unjust system. Mamabolo said Gottfried prepares women for football fundamentals Staff Reporter Before class, the students were intent studying for a quiz they would take within But the quiz wasn't on world politics or science. It tested the students' knowledge of college football referees' signals. Last night, 32 women ranging in age from their teens to their 60s, learned about defensive football during a clinic conducted by Mike Gottfried and members of his staff. After the quiz, the coaches gave the women a detailed look at the often confused, often amusing game of football in the Party Room of the Frank R. Burge Union. THE FREE CLINIC, established last year by Gottfried, was taught in two sessions. Last week the clinic opened. Doris Henton, 608 W. Sixth St., prepared for the 10-task quiz on reference signals by [H]eather. "This game is really simple," said Jay Bonds, defensive end coach. "Coaches have made it confusing. When I entered it, it was already confusing." "I like this one best," she said, demonstrating the call for an illegal procedure not permitted. AS THE WOMEN ENTERED the classroom, they picked up sheets showing 14 referees' signals. Later, a referee, wearing a black-and-white striped uniform. demon strated the 10 signals that were on the quiz. The women wrote down what each gesture meant, such as the raising of both arms to signal a touchdown, field goal or point after touchdown. As a college student at Wichita State University, Starr said she didn't go to football games. But at last week's game between the University of Kansas and Wichita State, Starr said she used some of the knowledge that she learned from last week's Pat Parks of Hiawatha, whose son, Mark, plays tight end for the Jayhawks, saw the clinic as an opportunity to learn more about the game her son plays - and to deliver some clean laundry to Mark "WE DECIDED WE'd come down every day if they'd do it." Parks said about the church. Linda Sutter, 1915 Edgele Road, a physical education teacher at Lawrence High School, was surprised when she ended up modeling football gear "This is kind of stylish with the big shoulders." Sutter said as she tried on a pair of shoulder pads. "These are really light, too." She also learned something she could apply to her life. "Now I can watch my son play and be a little bit more informed," Sutter said. "I'm still a little confused, but see, I've got my notes." Steven Purcell/KANSAN Doris Henton, left, 608 W. 61th Street, and Jenny Kowal, 601 Louisiana St., practice official's signals at a clinic held to educate women about the basics of football. The clinic last night was the second half of a clinic led by head football coach Mike Gottfried and members of his staff. THEY SHOOT SENIORS, DON'T THEY?
