President Reagan's Commission on Drunken Driving, the National Transportation Safety Board, the National Council on Alcoholism, the National Safety Council and the National Insurance Institute for Highway Safety all import raising the drinking age to 21, Taylor said.
"IM NOT working for total prohibition," he said. "It's strictly a matter of highway safety."
Ken Wallace, owner of the Jawhay Cafe, 1340 Ohio St., said the raising of the drinking age was a good start.
He said he agreed with a statement by John Hartman, professor of sociology at Wichita State University, that alcohol consumption was "the largest, single, controllable cause of human disease."
"We'd be out of business," he said. "Raising the drinking age to 21 would be the death knell."
Wallace estimated that 90 percent of his customers were between 18 and 21 years old.
WALLACE AGREED with Tallman that present laws allowed those under 21 to drink in a bar.
If the drinking age is raised, you'll see more
driving and drinking, more hard liquor and more drugs," he said.
Shaun Trehnholm, owner of the West Coast Saloon, 2202 Iowa St., said, "I think the people who are trying to raise the drinking age have good intentions, but they're not practical. Anyone who thinks raising the drinking age will increase highway safety is kidding himself."
Trenholm estimated that 30 percent of his customers were 18 or 19 years old. But he said he thought he could remain in business if the drinking area was raised.
Boranayak said his organization could only consider raising the drinking age as part of an attempt to "modernize the archaic laws" governing alcoholic beverages in Kansas.
Boranayk said legislators should consider extending tavern closing times beyond midnight for the first time.
"At least 40 states have some form of Sunday beer sales," he said. "All four states surround
He estimated that raising the drinking age to 21 would result in a 10 percent drop in sales by 45 percent.
"The recession has already caused a 2 percent decrease." Boranvak said.
word "normalization" on the agenda, fearing ties with Israel would alienate other Arab countries.

n hope "Our delegation is very satisfied," Kimche said, "because our main aim here — normalization — is spelled out."
The United States proposed the term "framework for mutual relations" and spelled out some of the topics the term would cover. It was acceptable to both sides.
"All agreed to address the items on the agenda open-mindedly without commitment to the outcome of the negotiations," Kimche said.
The agenda topics he listed were: termination of the state of war, security arrangements, framework for mutual relations — including liaison, the end of hostile propaganda, and the movement of goods, products and persons — a program of complete withdrawal and the conditions of Israeli withdrawal within the context of the evacuation of all foreign forces.
Canceled
The question of how to discuss each agenda item at the same time probably will be raised by all subcommittees. One proposal is for the creation of subcommittees on each item.

adding that students who could not pay on time were treated to a friend make their payment.
Thompson said that the best way to avoid problems was to go through early enrollment.
Students who participated in residual enrollment were also attempting to pay fees and find jobs.
Alicia Kramer, St. Louis junior, did not attend NU first semester and was enrolled for the first学期
"THE WORST thing would be waiting in and then not getting classes," she said. She said it was her own responsibility.
Bill Turner, a freshman transfer student,
enrolled Wednesday, but said he was not told he
was required to pay fees at a certain time. He
was not paid by his school's scheduled time and his enrollment was dropped.
"I didn't get what I wanted yesterday. I probably got it today," he said.
Students are allowed only one visit to enroll.
Problems with class schedules after that must be resolved through adding and dropping.
Debbie Westold, Prairie Village sophomore, said she had been waiting more than four hours in the line, which stretched from the east end to the west end of the building.
THOMPSON SAID that the increase in students wanting to add and drop courses was due to lower rates of participation.
"There are more closed courses than in the last ten years," he said.
Courses were closed because fewer sections were offered. Starting today, he said, he will try to have a list of closed courses posted outside the computer center so students will not have to wait in line and then find that the classes they want are closed.
Thompson said that he thought the new system had worked well, but that he hoped the method of paying fees would be changed. He said that he would like students to have the period between early enrollment and the beginning of classes to pay their required fee.
Rush
Fink said she had not heard any complaints about the rush process.

"Everybody going through rush is here because they want to be in a house," she said. "It's a numbers game. The houses can only take so many girls.
"We can't take everybody, although we'd really love to."
LAST NIGHT after attending their last round of parties, the protestive pledges convened at the Ranada Inn, 2222 W. Sixth St. to decide final names for the new homes they will choose as members tonight.
"Tornorow is going to be the hardest," Amy Lundberg, Winnertie, ill., freshman, said at the game.
Mindy Goodell, Bartlesville, Okla., freshman, said. "We've gotten to where if we think about it anymore, we'll have a breakdown.
"It's a neat deal. It's a lot of fun and you meet a lot of people. But I'm about to fall asleep on my bed."

Construction finally to begin on long-awaited AOPi house

Staff Reporter
After years of waiting, the Alpha Omicron Pi sorority finally will have a chapter house at the University of Kansas.
The sorority's executive board yesterday announced in a prepared statement plans for construction of a chapter house at Sigma Nu Place next to the Alpha Chi Omega house.
The Harris Construction Co. Inc. of Lawrence will handle the project, which will cost more than $1 million and should be completed by August, 1983, the statement said.
The English Tudor-style structure, which will cover 19,300 square feet, will house 75 women, the statement said.
Plans for the two-story building include two and three-women study rooms with sleeping dormitories and public areas that include a formal living room, dining room, kitchen, recreation room, chapter room and library, the statement said.
AOPI, WHICH has 83 chapters in the United States and two in Canada, was founded in 1897 at Barnard College of Columbia University in New York. The AOPi chapter at KU was re-installed April 12, 1980, and has tried to get construction of a chapter house under way ever since.
AOPI members have been living in residence halls and apartments while waiting for word of construction on the house.
Several alumni from the Lawrence area have supported the project, the statement said.
Sue Lewis, administrative director of the AOPI international headquarters in Nashville, Tenn., said financing was secured through the First National Bank of Lawrence.
The statement said the Kansas University Endowment Association also had been involved.
Kay Sutherlin, executive board director, has been coordinating the plans with University officials.
Groundbreaking ceremonies will be held as soon as weather conditions permit, she said.
