Phelps said that Hinman filed a sex discrimination suit against the University of Kansas and some faculty members in the late 1970s, before Tacha was appointed vice chancellor in 1891. The lawsuit, which is pending in the U.S. District Court in Topeka, criticizes KU employment policies. The suit includes promotion, recruiting and other minorities for women and other minorities.
A KU associate professor of English opposed the nomination of Deanell Tacha, vice chancellor for academic affairs; as judge for the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in a letter mailed yesterday to the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee.
Hinman said Tacha wasn't upholding an agreement signed by the University with the U.S. Department of Labor in 1892 that emphasized equal employment opportunities at KU.

Fishbone blends different styles
Wednesday, Nov. 6, 1985
By a Kansan Magazine writer
Ska-rock-reggae-postpunk-new wave-jazz band-band funk is a helluva long adjective, but it's one that aptly describes the style of Fishbone — as well as the California band can be described.
Fishbone's energetic stage show and ethnic rock and roll sound has earned them plenty of attention in Los Angeles music circles. Fishbone earned a contract Columbia Records and an LP titled, what else, "Fishbone."
truss. Whee!
The band's freetic act should earn more attention when the band hits Lawrence on Tuesday to play Cogburs, 737 New Hampshire St.
The music starts at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $5 in advance and are available at Cogburs, from Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity members or at CATS ticket outlets. The charge is $6 at the door.
"It is a brand of ethnic rock and roll," said guitarist Kendall Ray Jones. "It has a lot to do with cross-cultural pollution. That is, it contains a lot of different musical styles."
Fishbone may already have fans around these parts. The band has a music video, "(Modern Industry)" which is shown on TV 30.
Drummer Fish, after whom the band was named,summed it up,saying, "Our music is like a mutt;it's
The young band — members range in age from 17 to 19 — combine bits and pieces of all sorts of musical influences into a sound they call their own.
made up of different things. But when it's put together, all these combine to make up our own sound."
sound.
Fishbone's members met in 1979 while being buses from their innery homes in Los Angeles to a junior high school in the suburban San Fernando Valley.
The fledgling band took in members - they had as many as 16 at one time - and garnered different styles from the different backgrounds each member brought with him.
"We were coming in from the inner-city and listening to one kind of music and then we would go out to the Valley and be exposed to more rock and roll and punk-type music." Jones said. "We were real young and inexperienced so we didn't know a band was supposed to follow guidelines. We didn't pay attention to any rules.
"We just wanted to do it all . . . and we did."
The band finally solidified into its present lineup: Fish; his brother John Norwood Fisher, bass; Jones; Angelo Christopher Moore, saxophone and vocals; Christopher Garden Dowd, trombone and keyboards; and Walter Adam Kibby II, trumpet.
By 1891, Fishbone was playing the Los Angeles club circuit under the name Megaron and the guidance of manager Roger Perry, who also had a hand in launching the team. They were the first to recognize the band to work in Coca-Cola commercials and then the recording contract.
