Candidates: ASK may sway election
By DON KNOX Staff Reporter
KU's affiliation with the Associated Students of Kansas, already threatened by a possible recall vote, could hinge on the election of KU's next student body president, the two candidates vying for the position say.
Lisa Ashner, Mission junior, and Kevin Walker, St. Louis junior, the two candidates, both said yesterday that the future of ASK, a Teope-kan based group, would definitely become an issue in next month's Senate elections.
"Die to its lack of ability to have any real effect on student issues, ASK will face a large funding cutback from a Momentum-controlled Senate," said Walker, presidential candidate for the Momentum Coalition.
BUT ASHNER, the presidential candidate with the Consensus Coalition, said she planned to oppose any KU attempt to pull out of ASK.
Walker and Ashner were the only two students to file by yesterday's deadline to compete in the Nov. 17 and 18 presidential elections. This was the first time since 1977 that only two students filed for the Senate's highest office.
Ashner, the present chairman of the Student Senate Executive Committee, criticized a plan for a vote determining ASK's continuation at KU.
"I think ASK should have their periodical review," Ashner said, "but I don't."
endum on ASK without having one for every other student-funded group."
A BILL FOR the referendum, sponsored by Paul Busirk, Liberal Aris and Sciences senator, will go before the ethics committee for a vote Wednesday.
Asher said a successful ASK voter registration campaign at KU this fall and a state work-study program recently introduced by Mark Tallman, a former governor supported her position to continue working with the student lobbying group.
"If you're not willing to commit to ASK — especially with the current situation with the University budget — then you need to have another lobbying system to go on board immediately." Ashner said.
Lawrence Chamber of Commerce officials yesterday toured seven possible sites for an industrial park.
But Walker said a student vote was a good idea and had his support.
Chamber tours proposed park sites
The chamber's board of directors probably will endorse one or more of the sites Oct. 27, said Gary Toebben, positive vice president of the chamber.
The chamber initiated a search for available industrial park sites in late August. The chamber received seven proposals by its Oct. 15 deadline, and released details of the proposals yesterday.
TOEBEN SAID the chamber was considering endorsing more than one
The proposed sites range in size from 19 acres to 275 acres.
Toebben said the chamber would not acquire any land in its search for an industrial park site, but rather would provide the facility a site and help to make it available.

Funds allocated to 27 groups Senate ends budget hearings
After more than 25 hours of hearings and deliberations during the past two weeks, the Student Senate Finance and Auditing Committee unanimously recommended that $14.3 million be located to 27 student organizations.
The budget package, which will go before the Senate two weeks from today, included full funding recommendations for seven of those groups, four of which had requests that totaled more than $10,000.
THE FOUR GROUPS were KU Crew, Headquarters, Consumer Affairs and the Graduate Student Council.
"We feel like these are the groups that have proved themselves in the past," said Loren Busy, finance committee co-chairman, of the four groups. "You have to look at the scope of the services they provide to the student body. You have to think they deserve the funding."
Three other groups also received full funding recommendations from the committee. They were Alpha Rho Gamma, $135; Tau Sigma dance
ensemble, $300; and the Microbiology Club, $122.
But the committee reduced requests of 20 other groups and denied funding to 15.
Many of the groups that had requested funding for speakers and lecturers had reductions in funding. A Senate resolution passed last month severely restricted the amount of money the finance committee could recommend for speakers and honorariums.
"Of course, there are some situations in which the Senate has funded speakers," Busby said. "John Houseman, for example, was a named speaker and we had a chance to bring him here. But some groups were requesting that some Dr. Jones come in from Kansas Citv."
THE 20 GROUPS that the committee recommended for funding, with reductions, were: American Choral Directors Association, $173; from a request of $1,043; Amnesty International, $48 ($67); BACHUS, $130 ($30); Biology Club, $53 ($63); Student Social Workers, $175 ($185); Communication Studies Interaction, $192 ($50); Counseling Students, $340 ($1,085); Graduate Anthropology Club, $141 ($795); Graduate Students
in communication, $393 ($453); KU German Club, $228 ($426); KU International Folk Dance Club, $150 ($900); KU Russian Chair, $20 ($72); KU Solar Energy International Club, $16 ($84); KU Women's Soccer Club, $130 ($235); Music Therapy Club, $185 ($364); Pre-Med Club, $128 ($183); River City Women's Health Collective, $104 ($128); Undergraduate Business Council, $112 ($21); and Women in communications, $90 ($40)
THE 15 GROUPS denied funding were: American-Iraeli Friendship Organization, Board of Class Officers, Pre-law Club, Friends of Lebanon, Jayhawk Sports Car Club, KU Amateur Radio, KU Gun Club, KU India Mountainering, KU Water Skiff, Transitional Care Services, Physiology and Cell Biology Club, Prephysical Therapy Club and Record.
Jill Eddy, finance co-chairman, said she expected this fall's supplemental budget hearings to be the last. There are proposals, she said, to combine the fall hearings with funding hearings held in the spring.
The finance committee allocates $52,014 every spring.
