State Legislature to address student-related issues
The 1980 session of the Kansas Legislature, which convened this week in Topkaka, will address several issues that the 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;
- Proposed salary increases, to the $3.10 minimum wage, for students employed by the University:
- A bill reducing the residency requirement from one year to six months for out-of-state students;
- A bill raising tuition by $300 for foreign students:
- *A bill that would prohibit the use of student fees to pay for academic, instructional or health care buildings, facilities and payments they are making on them.
- Proposed funding for non-student use of student unions, such as faculty and administrative meetings, which now are partially funded by student activity fees;
- A proposed 100 percent fee waiver for graduate teaching assistants.
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.
ASK's Bob Bingaman said that almost every legislator he worked to this week wanted to know what ASK's position would be on such a bill.
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."
The LA, with representatives from each member school, sets the issues for lobbying priority. KU has 23 voting members.
Bungman said he expected such a bill to be introduced, but he wasn't sure when he would and that ASEs's position as a bill would be determined by the Legislative Assembly when it meets in session.
If passed, the self-help amendment to the Landlord-Tenant Act would affect students who rent apartments or other housing.
Most officials react favorably to budget plan
Landlords not be liable for anything not already included in the existing act, Solbach said, and only necessary repairs could be made.
According to the bill's sponsor, State Rep. John Solbach, D-Lawrence, the amendment would give a tenant an easy legal means to fight eviction without agreement or with state health and building codes, if the landlord refused to make necessary improvements within a certain period.
The amendment is expected to come
before a House Judiciary Committee for a vote in about two weeks.
Most students employed by the University will receive an increase in salary from $2.90 to $1.00 an hour if the Legislature follows a plan of increasing education to raise student salaries.

with the economy in a crunch and money tighter than ever, there is still a chance to make a difference, forget, forgive themselves with junkfood and stuff it the movies. Hollywood juggles it.
Entertainment key to movies of 1979
University Daily Kansan
The films of 1972 were, for the most part, light and entertaining, but they also contain dark moments, and in one case, "The Muppet Movie," bizarre people in real situations. There was a little for them.
Few films in *72* attempt to make any sort of serious comment on "life in the real world," and even some in "Apocalypse Now" and "The China Syndrome" had an effect that will tran-
A NOTICEABLE trend in this year's movies was that of the continuing saga. Sylvester Stallone got back into shape in "Rocky II" and somehow managed to win
the heavyweight championship that he'd taken a shot at in "Rocky."
In "Oliver's Story," Candice Bergen arrived on the scene to try to start a new "Love Story" with Ryan O'Neal.
"Moanerak" saw James Bond in outer space contempoilies, life in the city of Dublin and the land of Draculaunca form of George Hamilton, convincing women across the country that they could kill a man before First Bite.
Because Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid died in a movie by that name several years ago, we were treated to a sort of pet memoir. And because the Sundance: The Early Years."
In "The Concorde-Airport" 79, a star-studded airline crew compressed even more pressure than the pilots so be bad after all. But fast, but not by any means! Short and squat, back into back like a heartbeat in a jaws' lament: I love 'a heart'
with Peter Falk and Alan Arkin at their comical best. Monty Python's "Life of Brian" delighted some and disgusted others, but whatever the case, it did at least.
Although some of the more serious movies of the year, such as "Apocalypsie Now," "The China Syndrome," "The Seduction of Joe Tynan," and "Norma Rae," were well received, across the office sales area to indicate that Americans in 1979 preferred to contemplate Ilois Lane's life and Kermit's big break.
A movie that didn't really fit any category was "The Warriors," a violent one that evoked violence in many of its audiences.

THE HORROR FLICKS of 79 were, with few exceptions, more hype than horror, but they did pose some "heavy questions." The "Anitymite Horror" forced many people to question whether that space could be haunted. "When a Stranger Calls" had baby sitters everywhere wondering whether they should unplug the extension phone, and "Alien" posed doubts as to whether the space program should be refunded.

Music . . .
From page 20
titles vary from the usual love song to some abstract aspect of life. To list the top hips would fill a couple of pages, but here are four titles with a "Lady," "Sultan's of Sang," "Forever in Blue Jeans," "Precious Love," "Heart of Glass," and "Honestly Satisfied." No takes Takes; "Am't A Bitch," "She Believes in Me," "Ring My Bell," "People of the South Wind," "Last of the Singing Winds," "Just Want Me," and the list goes on and on.
The end of the year almost always brings reviews and wrap-ups of the music that was popular. It also brings the music of the year to mind. It is one of the highlights of the year. From all indications, it can be
expected that Supertramp will receive the best group of the year award, while Dona Summer will get it in the top three vocales, the Rock 'n' Roll competition will be very close, and on the Country West side, on the Southern Partion just about to wrap up.
Because this is the last year of the decade, at least 10 have received the prize and been awarded the award. The prize to get it is a song that has been called *Jesus' Heaven* or *Heaven to Hapeen*, by Led Zeppelin.
Yes it has been quite the year and decade for music. The 1980s are almost upon us, and it promises to be a productive decade for music.
On those cold winter nights slip into something warm and cozy like nightgowns, pajamas and robes.
