Candidates clash over ASK budget, beer
By DAVID SWAFFORD Staff Reporter
Kevin Walker, Momentum Coalition's presidential candidate, began last night's Student Senate debate in the lobby of Tempel Hall by clarifying his stance on the issue of selling beer in the stadium.
The debate, sponsored by the Association of University Residence Halls, touched on several topics, including the sale of beer in the stadium and whether to support Associated Students of Kansas.
Earlier, Walker had said Momentum would solicit help from
Anheuser-Busch Inc. to get beer sold in Memorial Stadium. But members of the Consensus Coalition claimed that he never worked with the company.
WALKER SAID Lisa Ashner, Consensus presidential candidate, had "totally blown the issue out of porportion."
"The issue has become a political football. The whole thing has become tainted."
"Anheuser-Busch has expressed interest in giving us advice on how to sell beer in the stadium. But their research is not about university politics. They are leaning
Jim Cramer, Consensus vice-presidential candidate, opened his part of the debate by saying that his coalition had looked into the issue during the summer and found out that it was against Anheuser-Busch's policy.
against it now because it has become a political issue."
"The stance has changed on the issue," said Cramer. "Earlier, it was 'Let's bring in the big boys.' Now they're saying that they are just talking to Anheuser-Busch for advice."
ing 50 percent, arguing that ASK "is just not doing the job right."
THE TWO OPPOSING coilitions differed most on the future of ASK. Momentum favors cutting ASK fund-
Walker said ASK had not gotten a bill to the Kansas Senate floor concerning higher education in the past several years.
Consensus argued that ASK won indeed doing its job. Ashner said ASK registered 50 percent of the eligible voters at KU this year.
She said there were three full-time ASK employees who were a real benefit to students because they were frequently in Topeka. For instance, she said, ASK was the only student group lobbying in Topeka at the time the Legislature approved the current budget reductions.

Planning director likes citizen initiative
A high rate of participation in land use and zoning decisions is an important characteristic of Lawrence citizens, the director of planning for the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Office said yesterday.
Staff Reporter
"One of the real benefits is the fact that you have so much citizen participation. That makes our job more difficult — but it also allows us to be successful and to do more meaningful planning." Banks said.
Price Banks, the director, started his duties in Lawrence on Oct. 4.
LAWRENCE IS FACING some big changes because of the proposed redevelopment of the downtown area, Banks said.
"I think that's probably the most exciting thing that's happening. That's still at a frail stage. But I'm impressed with the enthusiasm of the people in lawrence and I'm impressed with the enthusiasm of the developer.
"I think that development, if it is designed and put together properly, ought to enhance the neighborhood on
Lawrence is fortunate to still have an active downtown. Banks said
the east and it ought to be good for the businesses downtown, rather than taking away from them."
The riverfront along the Kansas River will offer opportunities for development, possibly during a second semester of the downtown project, Banks said.
"DURING THE 1960s, a lot of urban renewal projects cleared a lot of large areas in central cities. They were replaced with office buildings, and at times just as well roll up the sidewalks. They became dead zones," he said.
"We have a really valuable resource here in the riverfront, but nothing has ever really been done with it," he said. "We put up office in City Hall toward the river."
Banks worked in Michigan before coming to Lawrence. He replaced Garnet Stoll, the former director, who was now a manager to make a similar position in Lincoln, Neb.
PLANNING FOR future development is easier in Lawrence than in some other areas of the country, Banks said.
"I think the combination of the University of Kansas being here and the fact that we're between two major urban centers has proven a real benefit, in that it has kind of stabilized the economy and provided for a relatively stable rate of growth," he said.
"That's much easier to deal with from a planning standpoint because it's much more predictable."
Still, the University - and the students who are here because of it - pose some special planning problems when new development is considered.
Students often have needs that are different from those of the general population.
for the new library had been completed. The $88,000 furnishings include book stacks, study carrels, casual seating and office furniture.
“IT'S VERY difficult to write ordnances to establish controls that work for both groups,” he said. “Ideally, in areas with large numbers of student apartments, you would require more facilities in areas with family apartments.”
Planning is becoming especially important, Banks said. It is prompting a look at Lawrence's current zoning regulations and ordinances.
something that takes a broader look at what Lawrence needs," he said. "As we stand right now, we're in a position of real importance to come in." It would be nice to cobbled it back.
WE WANT TO come up with
Also, the changing economic situation brings about different types of changes in firms.
The library is financed by a $3.7 million allocation from the Kansas Legislature, $1 million from Med College and $200,000 from private donations.
THE LIBRARY, named after former KU Chancellor Archy Dickes, will have double the 20,000 square feet of space in the Clendering Library. The library will have 444 seats, an increase over the 201 in the present library.
Drinking Myth of the Week
Construction work on the new $2 million Archie Dykes Library is ahead of schedule and 90 percent completed, with a total of 14 facilities planning at the Med Center.
PEOPLE GET DRUNK ...OR SICK ...FROM
DUTTERING DRINKS
The new library will house more than 127,000 volumes of material. The History of Medicine bake will remain on the shelf for a storage of older journals. Weichert said.
**PEOPLE GET DRUNK ... OR SICK ... FROM**
**SWITCHING.**
That shouldn't really make much difference. What
usually causes an adverse reaction to alcohol is
drinking too much.
The expected completion date is set for March, but books will not be moved into the library until June 1 because of the absence of events at the end of the semester, he said.
MIXING YOUR DRINKS CAUSES HANGOVERS.
The major cause of hangovers is drinking too much.

Dog, visiting sister help alert family of damaging house fire
Heidi heard strange noises in the heild, but did not suspect anything until Ozzie's persistence made her suspicion acted as if something had happened.
A dog named Ozzie and a visiting relative alerted a sleeping Lawrence family that their house was on fire yesterday morning.
Cheryl Heidi, Minneapolis, Minn., the sister of Brenda Patella, 801 Missouri St., koke up about 2:45 a.m. because her family's pet dog, was pestering her
When she opened the attic door she found smoke.
Patzel said Ozzie and Heidi probably saved the family's lives.
"There was an awful lot of smoke and the smoke alarm hadn't gone off yet." Pet.

The fire was started by a short in the cord of a lamp in the attic, McSwain滩
He said the fire department was called to the house owned by Joe Patzel at 532 North 14th Street.
The fire熄毁 the structure of the attic and its contents, McSwain-said. The rest of the house received some smoke and water damage, he said, but fireighters were able to salvage much of the contents of the house.
Heidi came to Lawrence to celebrate Patzel's birthday Wednesday.
BRENDA PATZEL SAID Ozzie, whom one of the Patzel children called a wonderful dog, had been a family pet for five years. Ozzie likes to sleep in the guest room where Patzel's sister was staying, she said.
"I'm not sure she's anxious to come stay again," Patzel said.
