State Legislature to address student-related issues
The 1980 session of the Kansas Legislature, which convened this week in Topeka, will address several issues that threaten direct effect on University of Kansas students.
Among those issues are:
- A proposed bill that would raise the minimum drinking age in Kansas to 21;
- An amendment to the Landlord-Tenant Act, designed to force negligent landlords to comply with existing health and safety codes, and with their rental agreements;
Most officials react favorably to budget plan
*A bill that would prohibit the use of student fees to pay for academic, instructional or health care buildings, relieving students of the payments they receive.
- Proposed salary increases, to the $3.10 minimum wage, for students employed by the University;
- ASK's Bob Bingameng said that almost every legislator he talked to this week wanted to know what ASK's position would be on such a bill.
- A bill raising tuition by $300 for foreign students;
- Proposed funding for non-student uses of student unions, such as faculty and administrative meetings, which now are partially funded by student activity fees;
The executive director of the Associated Students of Kansas, the state student lobby group, said yesterday that changing the drinking age would be a "very hot issue."
If passed, the self-help amendment to the Landlord-Tenant Act would affect students who rent apartments or other housing.
The LA, with representatives from each member school, sets the issues for lobbying priority. KU has 23 voting members.
- A bill reducing the residency requirement from one year to six months for out-of-state students;
- Proposed increases in the maximum amount of federal funds available for scholarships will increase the proposed bill increasing the number of scholarships available to students at state colleges.
Although a bill to raise the drinking age has not yet been introduced, most observers are confident that the issue will be raised this session.
According to the bill's sponsor, State Rep. John Solihack, D-Lawrence, the amendment would give a tenant an easy lease to sell, without requiring the agreement or with state health and building codes, if the landlord refused to make necessary improvements within a certain period.
Binghamman said he expected a bill to be introduced, and that he didn't know when it would pass. The bill a bill would be determined by the Legislative Assembly when it meets in
- A proposed 100 percent fee waiver for graduate teaching assistants.
Landlords not be liable for anything not already included in the existing act, Solbach said, and only necessary repairs could be made.
The amendment is expected to come

Robert Redford is ending his extended vacation from film-making with Jane Fonda in "THE ELECTRIC HORSEMAN," a Columbia Pictures release. In 1982, she won the award for named Steele, steals a million-dollar race horse and runs away to the mountains, where only a clever reporter, played by Fonda, is able to find him and where, of course, he found her. By Sydney Pollack, will open Dec. 21 at Hilight Theatre, Ninth and fifa streets.
Warner Bros. Pictures will be offering "GOING IN STYLE," a comedy about Green Street and the movie stars George and George Burke who give up their lives of loneliness to become bank robbers. Tony Bill produced and Martin Crawford will open December 25 at Hilbert Theatre.
"AND JUSTICE FOR ALL" has been playing around the country since November, but it will arrive Friday in Lawrence at Hillel Theatre. At Pace University as a beahead stab, the student satirical stab at the American judicial system. Other stars of
the Columbia release are Lee Strasberg,
John Forsythe and Jack Warden.
Dam Aykroyd and John Beulish are featured in "1841," a comic look at the attack on Pearl Harbor. Ned Bedy also stars in the film, which was produced by Buzz Feitshauls and directed by Neil Frye. The 31st and Iowa streets, will be featuring "1841" beginning Dec. 21.
Also at Cinema Twin on Dec. 21 will be "THE JERK," Steve Martin's film debut in the title role of what can be described as a self-explanatory film.

power was a man pedaling a bicycle-like contraption. It could move in the form of speed or space covered, but the Gosammer Condor showed what the human body really can do, with a robot that looks like a bicycle.
AND THEME WERE men who went faster than other men, without the aid of technology. It started during the winter when a girl missed a world record in the mile run by 1. second in the Milrose games at Madison Square Garden. The next week, he came back in the Jack-in-the-Box indoor games and returned in the record by 2.3 seconds, with a time of 3.328.
As the summer came around and people started running on the larger outdoor course, he was the first place. That name was Sebastian Koe, and it belonged to a 22-year-old Briton who finished the summer with three world records in the 10-meter run and the 800-meter run. His mile record of 3:49 was set in a dream race in which the first 10 runs finished with a time of
REYNALDO NEHEMIAH showed he could run the hurdles and as Well could run for distance. Indoors, he seemed to set a new record every time he ran, at every age. At the Olympics, Outdoors, Nehémiah didn't take long to set a record of 1.30 in the 110-meter hurdles, a speed that usually left him quite alone at the finish line, especially when his friend Greg Foster was not running. It would be hard for him to "Skirts" Nehémiah wasn't been around.
These men run, ostensibly for the thrill and the glory. The people who play for pay also had quite a year, especially Nolan Ryan. Ryan helped the California Angels stay in the pennant race for his team's personal glory when he came within one hit of his fifth no-hitter on July eight against the New York Yankees. Playing on national television, Ryan kept striking out Yankee hatsman, until促请 Jackson slapped the ball in.
For the men, two college stars of the winter and spring became professional stars of the fall and winter. Larry Bird of Chicago and Michael Jordan of "Magic" Johnson of Michigan State and the Los Angeles Lakers took their free-bleeing passing game straight from the NCAA finals to the NBA. The next day, they were accompanied by, above they go, if the excitement of their collegiate styles is not dulled by the day-to-day grind of the NBA, those two men on their own could provide the spark that will lead to the college game out of the slum it has been in.
disputed error in the sixth spoiled what was otherwise an exciting, impressive dislay of pitching.
AND RYAN showed what he was worth in another way after the season, when he signed a contract with the Houston Astros to pitch for a million dollars a year.
Basketball provided its share of interesting stories, including Anne L. Pacey, a player. She lasted through a few practices, until she was cut and given a front-office job, which she soon inducted into the Women's Professional Basketball League New Jersey Gems. Female woman, Nancy Genma, of Old Dominion received the feature treatment in Sports Illustrated's college basketball issue in one of the most dominant players in the sport.
There were many other sports in 1979, but these were some of the best. The usual champions were crowned, and Pittsburgh had more than its share. The Staten Island Steelers and the World Series, and Terry Bradshaw and the Steelers in the Supremay Bowl. The Seattle SuperSonics surprised a lot of people with their second NBA championship. The Montreal Hornets beat Stanley Cup, and there were even a few people outside of Canada and the Northwest who cared. And Oklahoma beat Nebraska, again.
