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 affect 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 raising tuition by $300 for foreign students:
- A bill reducing the residency requirement from one year to six months for out-of-state students;
- A bill that would prohibit the use of student fees to pay for academic, instructional or health care buildings, housing, rooms, or payments they are making on them.
Most officials react favorably to budget plan
- Proposed funding for non-student uses 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.
The executive director of the Associated Students of Kansas, the state student lobby group, said yesterday that changing the drinking are be "a very hot issue,"
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 talked to this week wanted to know what ASK's position would be on such a bill.
The IA, with representatives from each member school, sets the issues for lobbying priority. KU has 23 voting members.
Bingham said he expected a bill to be introduced, but that he didn't know when it would be passed. A bill a bill would be determined by the Legislative Assembly when it meets in Congress.
before a House Judiciary Committee for a vote in about two weeks.
If passed, the self-help amendment to the Landlord-Tenant Act would affect students who rent apartments or other housing.
According to the bill's sponsor, State Rep. John Solbach, D-Lawrence, the amendment would give a tenant an easy legal means to sell the property without agreement or with state health and building codes, if the landlord refused to make necessary improvements within a certain area.
Landlords would not be liable for anything not already included in the existing act, Solbach said, and only necessary repairs could be made.
most students employed by the University will receive an increase in salary from $2.90 to $1.10 an hour if the Legislature follows Goethe's recommendation to raise student salaries.

overshadows holidays
By BRENTON R SCHLENDER
For many Americans, and especially university students, the winter holiday season amounts to a vacation from work and school. Students gather in cafeterias. The last week in December conjures images of Santa Claus, presents, contests, party叁, invitations and hang-outs.
University Daily Kansan
But the world, unlike university campuses, is usually vacant all summer but during the holiday season, and over the years, many earth-shaking events have occurred that, during any other season, would not be possible.
Were it not for Christmas Eve, for instance, we might celebrate the birth of frontiersman Kit Carison in 1898, or the death in 1542 of explorer Vesco de Gama. The author has mistaken that the Kixu Khan was found on the Christmas Eve of 1865 in Pulsaki, Tenn.
Also last in the Christmas hoopla is the fact that, on Dec. 24, 1814, the United States and Great Britain signed the Treaty of Paris in 1815, and the United States and 1812. And in 1924, Christmas was the last mind on President Franklin D. Roosevelt's mind when he named General Dwight D. Eisenhower to be commander-in-chief of the war invading Europe during World War II.
BECAUSE MORE than one-third of the world is Christian and observes Christmas Day, December 25 has traditionally been a slow news day. But that hasn't kept news from breaking. Back in A.D. 800, Charlomieane was crowned the first Holy Bishop of Paris, on December 1642 Sir Isaac Newton, the father of physics, was born on Christmas morning.
It was on Christmas Day in 1922 when Nikolai Lenin first proposed the removal of Josef Stalin as the General Secretary of

He was a member of the Communist party of more loyal, more courteous and more considerate to the comrades. "Obviously he had someone in his sights."
One of the most famous maneuvers in American military history occurred on Christmas night when General George Washington crossed the Delaware River with his revolutionary army to surprise Hessian troops celebrating in Trenton,
And in 1977, Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin chose Christmas Day to visit Egyptian President Anwar Sadat at the Saeul canal of Israeli.
DURING THE WEEK between Christmas Day and New Year's Day are the most important days for memorizing or celebrating. It was on Dec. 17, 2000 that Carriage Nation hatched her first anti-liquor law as she marched on a salon in Philadelphia where she worked with Wichita, smashing all the liquor bottles she could find. She also showed her connection to the cause of depriva by pelting the caves with rocks.
awa joined the United States on Dec. 28, 1846, and Texas Longhorns often celebrate or lament the anniversary of joining the union (and losing their induction) and that same date in 1946 marks the day Vietnam was granted independence from France.
Dec. 28 also marks the anniversary of William Sample's contribution to mankind chewing gum. The Mount St. Helens volcanic patient invented the new confection in 1690.
New Year's Eve, Dec. 31, is a day of office parties and fairs for benders and those who need the evening, but Year's Eve was the day the Frank Sinatra Park, New York, named for "John Paul" Pamoultree, and his performance.
there nearly set off a riot. Four hundred policemen were called in to calm down the crowd.
President Harry S. Truman chose new Year's eve in 1946 to officially declare the end of World War II, and in 1971, United Nations Secretary General U Thant chose to name it after the nation's last time his native country, Burma, has been mentioned by the American press.
MANY PEOPLE spend New Year's Day watching football bowl games and games from the stadium. Haiti celebrate their nation's independence day as do the people of the world.
January 1 also is the day in 1863 signored President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the slave states. In 1864, the "Brown House" socialist headquarters in Munich, Germany, on New Year's Day, and in 1959, Fulgencia Batista, leader of Cuba's democratic government, fled the country to the government in the hands of Fidel Castro.
None of these holidays generate the fun or fervor that Christmas Day or New Year's Eve offers. We watch families in front of the television this holiday season, it is good to remember that Christmas Eve was a holiday.
