KU officials awaiting affirmative action's fate
By KATHY BRUSSELL
Staff Reporter
KU officials are not worried about the future of the University's affirmative action program, despite a plan to abolish such programs proposed by a future U.S. Senate committee chairman.
Hatch, who is scheduled to become the next chairman of the Senate Labor Committee, said last week that he would push for a constitutional vote.
Mike Edwards, director of KU's office of affirmative action, said this week that he was not so much significance to attach to a lawsuit made recently by Sen. Gritch, G. R-Utha.

The constitutional amendment proposed by Hatch would have to be ratified by the states, and the influence of the Reagan administration enough to get the amendment passed, he said.
"I personally have seen or heard nothing to indicate that President-elect Reagan would not be committed to affirmative action at either the federal or state level," he said.
Because Congress cannot repeal state laws that require compliance with affirmative action regulations, passage of a constitutional amen-
won't know the effects on his own program, he said.
Bob Fillmore, associate general counsel for the University, said he saw no reason for concern about Hatch's statement.

A LAST an alternative to Carter, Reagan and Anderson. several independent television stations (notably KCOP in Los Angeles and WOR in New York) will air the *Deer Hunter* on November 4, election night. This has caused a considerable outcry, not only because of its violence, but also because some critics have deemed it unpatriotic to offer viewers something interesting to watch on election night.
Personals
CANCHE BERGEN married French director Louis (Pretty Baby) Mullle; Jill Clayburn and her writer husband David Rabe are expecting a baby, while Henry Winkler and wife Stacy had a baby girl September 30 (they did not name her Fonnaliza). Frederic Forrest married Zaczi's Marilu Henner in New Orleans.
GYFFEN RECORDS, after signing John and Loyon (their Double Fantasy LP will be out in mid-November, followed by an actual life-on-stage tour). Donna Summer and Eton John, has finally signed some unknowns: Greg Copeland, a singer-songwriter whose first album was duced by friend and co-writer Jackson Browne; Dan Farnell, co-writer of Boz Sage; Daniel Jolo' hit and backup singer Seagame; and Ariela Taylor;Mc MacKinley, a Muscle Shoal artist with previous records on RCA and Arista, and On the Air, a british group featuring Simon Townshend, younger (age 16 or 17) brother of Pete.
Casting Pearls
FAY DENNAYAN and ROBERT MITCHEL will portray Eva and Juan Peron (Argentina's original fun couple) in a TV movie *Erika The First Lady*—which has been directed by Marlon Brando. This one, filming in Mexico, may ever closer to the facts. But don't count on it.
MISS PIGGY next leading man will be Charles Groldin last seen in Sunburn and Heaven Can Want) Groldin prepared for his swine lower role by co-starring (in three soon to be released films) with Lily Tomlin in The Incredible Shrinking Woman, Goldie Hawn in Seems Like Old Times, and Jill Clayburgh in My I'm Tumor. After his stint with the sublimie pig, Groldin will write and direct a comedy drama about Hollywood to star himself, Peter Falk and Jack Warden.
RACTIME E. L. Doerotow's bestseller, is moving now before the cameras (on a waiver during the actors' strike) starring a veritable galaxy of famous names: James Cagney, out of retirement, is the Police Commissioner; Opt. B'Dren is (1) J. P Morgan writer Norman Mulligan; and Stanford McGovenn (seen in *Ordinary People*) plays Evelyn Nestle; Mary Seenburgen is the mother Houdini has not yet been cast.
ALICE IN WONDERLAND, the version written by Elizabeth Swados for Joe Papp's production in New York a few years ago, will appear on NBC, starring Meryl Streep as Alice.
PERSONAL EFFECTS, director Briana de Palma's next (which will probably undergo a title change, thanks to a TV movie of the same name) will location in Philadelphia and star (tra) la Jolla Travailo, writer Patricia Palma, the scriptwriter for *The thriller adventure," but de Palma're writing it anyway, so all this information is utterly superfluous.
Releases & Non-Releases
IEG EALES a two-record set recorded in concert at Santa Monica, the Inglewood Forum and New York City will be out by Thanksgiving—giving poor ElektraAsylum ample reason to offer its performances. Steely Dan's new long-awaited album, which was unlabelled, will soon (perhaps already) emerge on either MCA or Warner Bros. Any bet?
JIM CARROLL the New York poet, writer and singer/songwriter who was to have his album released by Rolling Stones Records earlier this year, has been shunted aside once again. With an executive changeover at Rolling Stones—long time prez. Eric McGrath resigned—Carroll's肥木 now will presumably be released by Atco next year (it's been finished for months). Meanwhile, Carroll is doing poetry readings, most recently at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis.

HOLLY VINCENT has reportedly gone through three producers (so far) in the process of getting rights for her first American album, currently being recorded at Electric Ladyland Studios in New York City. A Los Angeles native who claims spiritual parentage from early Buddy Holly and Gene Vincent M. Vincent took off for London and gave a year ago and scored a heartfelt single there with "Tell That Up." Vincent is used to taking her commands obeyed, while assembling her band, the Italianes, she worked in a bodge and discipline parlor right here in Hollywood, scant blocks from Ampersand's executive suites. One might say she was . . . bound for stardom (get it!)
PILISTIN HILL EVANS whose romantic, meticulousazz phrasing influenced a generation that included Herbie Hancock, Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea, Joe Wawinol (of Weather Report) and Paul Kelly to name a famous few, died September 14 in a hospital in New York after a brief illness. A heroine he mashed Evans' health years into a methadone program up to the time of his death. Born in 1929, Evans recorded over fifty albums, including the classic *Kind of Blue*. He won the *downbeat Critics Poll* five times and also won Grammy awards. The *Village Vanguard* sessions, a live concert, one of the best of the *Easy* series of easy interplay with his band members. Of his most recent albums, *Crosscurrents*, with veteran saxophone players Lee Konitz and Wayne Marsh, is among the best.

Just send your questions, whether weird or wise, to Cheech and Chong Quizmaster, Ampersand, 1680 N. Vine, Suite 201. Worried wood, CA 90028. We'll dispatch a ball boiled, bard nosed, maybe even hard of hearing journalist to Columbia pictures, where Cheech & Chong will soon film Cheech & Chong's Columbia Project; we'll make those answer 20 of the best questions submitted (our choice, and that's final). What's more, Cheech & Chong will send each of the chosen askers a small token of their esteem. Very small. Their choice (don't complain to us). December 1, 1980. Cheech.
excellent, very much. I will thank you.
But hurry! Questions must start by midnight December 1, 1980. Cheech & Chong want me to teach until next spring, after they've finished the aforementioned Columbia Project, but our Quizmaster needs the time to learn to read. Duty requires to include your name and address with the question; only one question per person, please.
Won't this be fun.

LAN ARKIN is currently filming Chu Chi and the family Flash in San Francisco; it's a family affair, with script by Aikson's son who has a feature role as well, plus smaller roles for wife Barbara Dana and other son Tony. Carol Burnett co-stars in the story of a former baseball star reduced to washing windows for a living. Arkin has said it's one of the best scripts he's ever worked on—but then he's worked on some real duds. Remember Rafferty and the Gold Dust Tuxes? Fire Sale?
Baring Not Quite All
THE IANE FONDA. Whose Body Is That? Award goes to Angie Dickinson, whose upper torso was seen in *Dressed to Kill* but not her, albeit her organs. Fonda, remember, had a stand in (well, he) in for most of the nude love scene with her in *Coming Home*. And as long as we wail lowering in the sky, we should point out how beautiful she is in *Blue Lagoon* was not Brooke Shields. Most disappointing news of all the barely glimpsed body in the shower scene in *Psycho*, was not Janet Leigh's.
W HOME LIFE IS IT ANYWAY, the Broadway hit that first starred Tom Coni, then reworked for Mary Tyrone Moore, will come to the screen with Richard Dreyfus as the allying artist who fights for the right to end his life. Dreyfus, meanwhile, looked slim and gorgeous for his role as a classical pianist in *The Competition*.
