Court Grants Injunction
(Continued from page 1)
In the petition the plaintiffs charge that the Seating Board has violated ASC Bill number one and eleven by establishing a seating plan without the express consent of the ASC; furthermore they charge that the Board has violated the contractual rights between KU students and University itself.
The petition was granted and the restraining order issued because, "The petition showed cause to justify the issuing of the restraining order," according to Student Court Chief Justice Rick Kastner, Goleta, Calif., third year law student. A hearing on the case was set for a special session of the Student Court Dec. 1.
The Student Athletic Seating Board has established a new seating plan in which KU students would purchase season tickets for four dollars. Each KU student's registration card states: "This Certificate of Registration and your KU-ID Card entitles you to admission to unreserved seats for regularly scheduled inter-collegiate basketball games. . .."
Four Debate Teams Enter Tournament
Four KU debate teams will be participating in this weekend's tournament to be held at the Central State College in Edmond, Okla.
Bill and Bob Ward, Wichita sophomores, who have compiled a record of eight wins and four losses, will lead the debate squad in the senior division.
Randy Shultz, Shawnee Mission sophomore; Nancy Wood, Wichita sophomore; Paul Falzer, Topeka freshman; Bob Krusemark, Atchison freshman; Phillis Schofer, Wichita sophomore; and Kelly Hayden, Atwood freshman, will see their first action.
THE FOUR DOLLAR fee would go for the administration of the new seating plan and for construction of additional student seating in the Memorial Stadium, according to a letter received by most full time KU students, Wednesday, from the Seating Board.
Barry Bennington, one of the plaintiffs in the case, explained his position saying, "I feel this restraining order and hearing were called for because, up until I received the letter from the Student Athletic Seating Board, I thought that I would be able to attend the basketball games as always.
"The letter however, seemed to indicate that I would have to pay four dollars to josie with the students as I have always done before. I would not have a reserved seat in spite of the fact that I would have to pay this additional fee—apparently for nothing.
"I THOUGHT THAT I had a contract with the University as a KU student who has paid his fees. Now it seems to be that the Seating Board has erased this contract. I feel that this situation calls for a judicial determination of whether this action by the Board had been taken in conformance with the ASC Constitution and its bills.
"Furthermore, the question as to whether or not I do have a contract with the University allowing me to attend basketball games upon presentation of my registration and ID cards only must be clarified."
CHAIRMAN OF THE Student Athletic Seating Board. T. J. Snyder explained the Board's position by saying, "The function of the Seating Board is to represent the student in establishing cooperation with the Athletic Department and the Athletic Corporation Board which results in the best possible seating arrangements in all inter-collegiate athletic events.
"WE ALSO REPRESENT the student by developing seating plans and presenting these plans to the ASC for its approval. After the ASC approves of the proposed seating plan it is then proposed to the Athletic Department which, in turn, submits the plan to the Athletic Corporation Board. Final jurisdiction rests in the Athletic Department or even the Athletic Corporation Board."
Snyder commented on the Student Court action saying, "I was quite surprised about the legal action by certain of my fellow law students. I sincerely doubt that a restraining order against myself and the Seating Board will have any serious effect on the sale of basketball tickets which will commence on Monday, as scheduled, unless the Athletic Department changes its current plan for the ticket sale."
ASC chairman, Mike McNally,
Bartlesville, Okla., junior said,
"The ASC has not voted to approve or disapprove of the four dollar basketball season ticket fee. ASC Bill #11, a bill to establish the Student Athletic Seating Board, does not explicitly give this student board the power to regulate the price for seats claimed by students."
