A. S.K?...WHATEVER.
Two years ago, when ASK took a position on the severance tax, Kansas State University considered quitting the lobbying group because K-State leaders thought that this position was contrary to the majority of its students' opinions on the tax.
ASK is moving away from social issues because of this diversity of opinion and because a survey last spring indicated that legislators who did not think strongly in agreement to student-related issues, Talman said.
He also said that KU's traditional ineffectiveness in ASK's legislative assemblies was inevitable unless the University, together with ASK's other member institutions, block-woked.

Talman said that many supporters and opponents of ASK argued that this conglomeration of debates was a waste of time, but, he said, the diversity probably would continue because of the democratic nature of the organization.
Sixty percent of ASK's $5,873 budget is earmarked for staff salaries. The rest is allocated for travel, advertising and office supplies. Tallman worked a 40- to 60-hour week during the 1962 fiscal year, for a salary of $13,600.
John Keightley, the KU campus director who receives $80 per month, said the local organization spent it all, 5,600 budget largely on materials which includes publishing updates during legislative sessions.
ASK
Organized in 1972 to lobby strictly for academics, ASK has since lobbied for such controversial issues as the legalization of abortion and the decriminalization of marri-
affect students, although the legislative assemblies still debate a wide variety of issues.

responses that Tallman said he received in time. Recognizing that problems exist in every student organization, David Adkins, KU student body president, spoke out against Bushkirk's recent proposal at the Right's Committee meeting because he said it unfairly singled out ASK.
But despite Adkin's opposition and the committee's decision, dissatisfaction with ASK still exists among student senators, Buskirk said.
ASKM asked 221 surveys and printed the 29 responses that Tallman said he received in time.

He said that the controversy about ASK would surface again during revenue code hearings in January and February, when the Student Senate would be faced with tough budget decisions.

"No group should ever go unquestioned," Buskirk said. "You've got to express problems you have with organizations like ASK."
Student Voice is an ASK publication that is published sporadically.
One of the campus organization's biggest successes during the current election campaign, Keightley said, was a campus voter registration drive that registered 1,400 voters.
The questionnaires that were returned to ASK later were published in its campaign issue of Student Voice, although Republican Doug Leaf stated they were immediately, and his answers were not printed.
But Lawrence's six state representative candidates said their only contact with ASK members during the campaign had been to receive a questionnaire on student issues and a printed invitation to an informal legislative reception.
One legislator attended the reception. The others said they received their invitations too late to attend.
