Committee criticizes KUAC spending. . .
From Page One
football tickets and in the activity fees
allocated to the KUAC, which were $145, 000
Representatives of the fencing and rugby clubs who testified at the hearing agreed with Strohbeck that several organizations have become of increased funds for line items.
LARRY WISDOM, PRESIDENT OF THE Fencing Club, said the trend to line item allocations was because there hadn't been a lobby that upheld the interests of sports clubs last fall when the Senate added new line items.
"There was nobody to say 'Let's leave other sports clubs enough money.' Wisdom said. "I'm afraid fencing will have to apply for extra money from the Senate's contingency fund when it is allocated next fall," he said.
Fencing is requesting $1,400 to provide knowledge of advanced fencing skills, equipment, transportation and entry fees for tournaments, he said.
"We have over 90 members each year," Wisdom said, "and attend over 20 tournaments. We had to limit competition this year because of lack of funds."
STEVE LANGE, president of the Rugby Club, said the trend to increasing ticket subsidies was turning the University into "a bunch of armchair athletes."
Rick Whitson, faculty advisor to the club,
said it was requesting $845, an increase over
this year's $345, because tournament costs
were rising and the team needed jerseys.
The Culture and Communications committees also conducted hearings Tuesday
The Cultural Affairs Committee heard from nine groups that requested funds, including four groups with line item allocations.
KANSAS FORENSICS is requesting
$8,500 to cover the costs of attending tournaments.
Jim Prentice, president of the club, said, "About 25 teams participate in debate at KU. In the past six years we have sent 10 students to the debate team and have qualified two teams this year."
Craig Paul, student chairman of the Folk Dance Club, said the group consisted of about 50 students who met Friday nights. The group is requesting $350 to enable it to buy records, maintain its record and tape collections, and to bring in a guest teacher once a year.
TAU SIGMA, another dance organization,
teaches eight forms of dance to its 51 women
and 19 men members, according to Patricia
Wenger, club chairman.
"We present a concert each spring and do programs for various groups and high schools," she said. "But we are having a very hard time funding costumes for our concert and have had to cancel appearances at some high schools."
Joe Hedges, president of KU Bands, said their request for $9,939 was needed because most of their instruments were falling apart.
The group is requesting $1,789. It received $510 the past year.
The bands have been voted a line item of $5,313, but Hodges said the full request was needed to allow the bands to participate in a schedule of activities with quality instruments.
THE UNIVERSITY CONCERT Series has a line item of $25,566. Jack Mills, chairman of the Concert Series Committee, will be on hand to provide tickets to students at a reduced cost.
The International Club provides speakers, films and an annual banquet for foreign students and other interested students. said Parhad Amidi, club president.

--possible that those productions might be presented in the Inge series.
CHUK FISCHER, cultural affairs
caplain, said he didn't know what the
concern was.
"The committee eliminated a line item
he said, he said, "but that doesn't
happen very well."
Amidi expressed dismay when he learned after line items, the committee had only two.
The University Theatre is requesting $30,000, which entitles all students to free admission to the five major plays and all exhibitions in the William Ine Memorial Theatre.
Tom Rea, associate director of the theatre, said it was unfortunate that most students didn't realize they were entitled to free admission.
The Black Arts Alliance requested $3,000 to fund two productions, but Brea said it was
THE FEBURY FIRST Movement is requesting $1,919 to publicize imperialistic repression around the world, said Anita Shelton, president. The group has 45 members and is part of a national organization, she said.
Two groups appeared before the Communications Committee.
Ben Broome, student coordinator of Operation Friendship, said his group was bringing relations between foreign and American students at KU. He said the group's request for $596 would be used to help 45 local families contact foreign students and invite them into their homes.
