KU to ask Regents for additional monev
ByGENE GEORGE Staff Reporter
University of Kansas officials are going to this week's Kansas Board of Regents meeting with a collection plate. The University needs almost $800,000 more this year to cover increase in telephone rates, x-ray film, total enrollment and cutbacks in federal grants.
The Regents are meeting Friday at Fort Hays State University at Havens.
Richard Von Ende, KU executive secretary, said the increases were overwhelming and "something over which we had no control."
"When you get 300 to 400 more students. than you expected, you will have more costs," he said.
THE NEEDED increases are big, Von Ende said, but he does not think KU is pulling any surprises on the Regents.
"They (the Regents) may not realize the magnitude of the increases, but all
institutions will be asking for more money," he said.
Most of the increases, he said, are coming in the University of Kansas.
Von Ende said the federal government was cutting back on its capitation grant to the school, the amount of money the school gets based on its enrollment.
The cutbacks coupled with an increase in enrollment mean the school will need $191,229 more for the 1981 class. In contrast, the $300 million for the 1982 fiscal year, Von Ende said.
The Med Center also wants to add 218 classified full-time employees.
Von Ende said it would need $235,769 more in fiscal years 1981 and 1982 for those added employees.
In a related matter, the Regents will consider setting a student fee rate to cover the cost of building the campus in the Kansas City, Kan., campus.
Last year, the Legislature approved
a $20 million building project, with
$3.7 million in loan funds.
One-fourth of the rest of the cost must be made up through gifts to the school, and what is left must be paid by issuing bonds.
Those bonds will be paid by the
school and assessed to students in
the Med Center.
ACCORDING TO A proposal discussed by the Regents in September, those special fees would range from $10 a semester for students in Allied Health institutions to a semester for graduate students and a $5 a semester for medical students.
The fees also vary depending on the number of credit hours a student is enrolled in.
The Regents Legislative, By-Laws and Policy Committee will discuss on Friday the RU banner policy which is part of the university's campus facilities. The committee will
consider acceptance of the recommendations of the KU Blue Ribbon Council, which regarding the display of political advertisements at University events.
The discussion of the use of facilities stems from incidents at KU where a group advocating First Amendment rights had displayed banners at Convocation this fall and at Commencement last spring.
The committee also will discuss the withholding of paychecks from faculty members who owe money to the state. The discussion stems from recent legislation that allows state institutions to garnish money from employee salaries if the employee owe them money.
The committee is waiting on recommendations from the Council of Presidents, composed of the top ad- ministers, Region governors, schools, before making any decisions.

Cancer-gene connection studied by geneticists
"There is ample data in hospital files to indicate that relatives of people having certain types of cancer have a two- to three-fold greater risk of having the disease than the public as a whole," he said.
Genetic abnormalities may cause certain cancers to run in families, R. Nell Schimke, a medical geneticist at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said yesterday.
According to Schimke, a young woman whose mother and older sister have had breast cancer has a greater risk of getting the disease.
Schimke recently attended a national meeting of geneticists in New York City, where they discussed recent evidence linking genetic factors to diseases such as cancer.
"What we are really interested in now is finding out what environmental condition kicks off the battle for that that start a tumor," he said.
Schimke said that many families
"There is probably some minute genetic condition that sets off all types of tumors; we need to find out, what it is."
might have genetic mechanisms to set off cancer, but not all encounter an environmental situation to trigger a reaction.
"We already know that smoking can be linked to lung cancer, that asbestos can cause certain types of blood disease and that high doses of radiation can cause bone cancer and leukemia," he said.
"As many as 5 to 10 percent of adult cancer patients appear to have a genetic factor," said Schikek. "If you could identify those families at risk, we would urge them to have regular checkups and possibly, head off the disease."
Schimke added that many families may have a genetic makeup that safeguards them against certain diseases. If such genetic indicators were detected, he said, it might help doctors detect the probability of cancer in those without the indicators.
"Hello, fire department? I need helo," she said.
The mother, eyes filled with tears, told the fire dispatcher that her 7-year-old son's arm was stuck in a sewer drain. Moments later, a fire truck and a firefighter cut off the metal bars on the sewer drain and freed the boy.
The films, shot in all three cities, is
presented by Airtron Corporation.
Insc. 162, N.W. North St.
The scenes are part of an educational film about firefighters that stars Lawrence, Kansas City and Topeka firefighters.
The film will be shown to elementary school children, Lawrence Fire Department Chief Jim McSwain said yesterday.
"I think it's a good film for that age group," McSwain said. "It is realistic."
Film features local firefighters
"We're probably going to use it when groups come through the station and when we go out to groups," he said.
McSwan said the firefighting equipment in the film was more up-to-date than the equipment in films now shown in schools.
The 15-minute film, "Community Helpers: Firefighters", is one in a series of eight, Dixie Powers, Centron's product development and research, said.
Powers said his company released the system and hoped to sell them to districts.
McSwain said the Lawrence Fire. Documents also would use the film for public relations.
Other subjects in the film series, include police officers, the postal service, sanitation services and medical services.
and I think it depicts the more modern fire department."
