Divestment
Continued from p.1
However, Dennis "Boog" Highberger, a committee member, said, "I think it's a little too nice to represent their homes."
Kirstin Myers, vice president of KU Democrats, said her group wanted to inform students how blacks in South Africa lived.
KU Democrats want to make the struggle for divestment by the Kansas University Endowment Association a concern for all students, not just a select few, she said.
"We want to let students know that this is a mainstream issue." Myers said yesterday. "We're not opposing the KU Committee on South Africa, but we wanted to do something additional.
"People from all walks of life should be concerned about the situation in South Africa."
KU Democrats plan to set up tables outside Wesco Hall and the Kansas Union from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. tomorrow through Friday to educate students on how blacks in South Africa are forced to live.
One way to educate students is to place them under the same restrictions that face the blacks in South Africa, Myers said.
The group is encouraging all students to get involved by signing a petition at their table favoring divestment. After they sign, they will be given $ \mathfrak{o} $
pass, similar to the type of passes blacks in South Africa must carry.
The petition demands that the Endowment Association divest from companies that do business in South Africa. It will say that students have consistently called for divestment and now they are losing their patience, Mvers said.
"The petition is a way to get students to think about the issue," she said. "Students need to think about the issue."
However, the passes are more important, she said, because students will become actively involved with a system that blacks in South Africa live with.

Henderson acknowledged the former and current KU athletes who attended the memorial service by asking how many people in the audience had actually been touched by Nesmith's healing hands. Many of those attending raised their hands in response.

I should because the building is like this," he said.
Shaungnesy said that many violations such as these existed because improvements on the apartments had been started but never completed.
A uniformed segment of the KU marching band closed the service by playing what Ryan said were Nesmith's three favorite songs: "The Star Stamped Banner," the KU alma mater and the KU fight song. "I'm a Jayhawk."
Mon Yin Lung, another Pinecrest tenant, said she wanted to move from her apartment and had found another place to live. However, she said she could not get out of her lease unless she gave 30 days notice that she was leaving. She is now waiting to see whether the improvements will be completed by Wednesday.
"Some of these things I could do an oven vent in a stairwell." "I could put this thing back on, but I won't because it's not my job."
"See this stairway," he said while standing on a landing in between two stairways leading to some apartments. "There are no railings. There's a little kid that lives up there and he could fall over the edge very easily. He could also step on these tacks that are on each step."
Cork said he was concerned about the violations that caused safety hazards at the complex.
Shanks said the baseball alumni now undwrote all the baseball scholarships, about $40,000 a year. But he wants to do more.

"You can look around and see they need a new stadium and new electronic scoreboard," Shanks said. "Because if you have nice facilities, you get good ballplayers. And if you have
The Blue Vintage team came back on home runs by Renko and Robertson to tie the game 7-7. That's how the five-inning game ended.
One recent alumni contribution was a major-league style batting cage to replace the old cage, which had been in use since the 1950s.
