ASK assembly seeks KU reps
By JULIE HEABERLIN Staff Reporter
Any student interested in being a delegate for the Associated Students of Kansas legislative assembly this weekend should contact the Student Senate office by tomorrow morning, the ASK campus director said yesterday.
John Keightley, campus director,
said that nine students were needed to fill the University's 29-member delegation.
Several times each year, KU delegates for ASK meet with delegates from the six Board of Regents schools and Washburn University to decide where students will be lobbying group based in Topeka, will focus upon in the Kansas Legislature.
"THE LEGISLATIVE assembly is the best way to find out what ASK is and does," Mark Tallman, ASK executive director, said. "And since it has been a controversial issue at KU, this is a good way to find out about the organization."
Every year since KU joined ASK, student senators have debated its effectiveness in the Legislature. This year, a student senator proposed a student referendum on whether the University should continue to participate in the organization. The proposal died in a Senate committee.
ASK members have maintained that criticism of their effectiveness is
"THE DELEGATES WE have right now are really representative of the camps as a whole, and include student senators and other students," Keightley said.
But he emphasized that any student, regardless of affiliation with a student group, was welcome to join the delegation.
The assembly will be at Fort Hays State University and begins tomorrow at 6 p.m. Committees will meet Saturday to study various issues before the commencement of the Western Hotel in Hays will off the assembly that night.
KEIGHTLEY SAID that students from the other universities had submitted resolutions on controversial, non-student related issues, but that the KU delegation would probably focus on increasing financial aid.
"I can't tell you how the KU delegation will vote, because it is a democratic process, but we are all ready to output (focal issues). Kouhliy said.
the last legislative assembly — that we will oppose any tuition hike that goes above the provisions of the 25 percent fee-cost ratio."
ASK is supporting what came out of
The 25 percent fee-cost ratio means that each student will pay 25 percent of the state's cost of his education at the University. ASK opposes any increase that would have students paying more than the 25 percent.
Mark Tallman, ASK executive director, said the ASK position on the fee-cost ratio could be controversial because students often misunderstood it.
TALLMAN SAID THAT by accepting the Regents' decision on the tuition increase, ASK demonstrated its commitment to improving higher education. He said the increase would make the Legislature more supportive of more student financial aid from the state.
Other resolutions the assembly will consider are; changes in the state rape laws, anEqual Rights Amendment to the state constitution, student financial aid for handicapped students, a state work-study program for students and the state scholarship program. The assembly will also discuss Social Security benefits and the state drinking age.

the roof was completed, and Winter-

Harsh winds and temperatures may push completion of the K.S. "Boots" Adams Alumni Center beyond the year. The Association association official said yesterday.
Dick Wintermote, Alumni Association executive director and secretary-treasurer, said the late May target, "always an ambitious date," but he added that the continued to slow completion of the bricks and construction of the roof.
Wintermite said that if temperatures dropped too low, the concrete might not be poured this winter. This could slow the project because the muddiness of the ground in spring could make pouring concrete difficult, he said.

coup in 1964, the vote was seen as a vital step in Brazil's return to democracy.
THE CENTER-LEFT opposition, the Brazilian Democratic Movement Party, clinched the gubernatorial race in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil's richest and most populous state, with a victory for candidate Francisco Montorillo.
The first victorious opposition candidates said they would press for a constitutional amendment providing greater popular election of the chief executive.
Furniture will be the next major expense, Wintormite said. The Alumni will continue their program.
THESE AND OTHER unexpected additions should be paid for by the $5 million that the Kansas University received from the university, raised for his center, Wintersmoke said.
Family and friends of Kenneth Adams, a former KU graduate for whom the building is named, donated $1.3 million for construction.
The original $2.9 million contract has risen to $3.2 million since Andersen made its bid in November 1981, Wintermute told. He said the additional $700,000 roof and the correction of unseasoned excavation problems.

DAVID AMBLER, vice chancellor for student affairs, said his office had not decided which group would move into the office. The office recommended last summer that the office of student organizations and activities and the college center might moved to the Union when the Alumni Association leaves.
Meanwhile, the Kansas Union governing board and the office of student affairs, which have authority over the Union, are deciding who will move into the Union office that the Alumni Association now occupies.
