Student support solicited in CYR cigarette petition
Walk a mile for a Camel? Perhaps you would like to support a bill recently introduced into the Kansas Legislature to permit the sale of cigarettes on the Hill.
The Collegiate Young Republicans (CYR) are giving KU students just such an opportunity this week.
Petitions supporting the bill are being circulated to all the organized living groups on campus.
IN ADDITION, similar petitions have been distributed to taverns on the campus edge. All students favoring the sale of cigarettes on the campus are asked to sign.
Bill Porter, Topeka senior and CYR state chairman, said it appeared that student opinion is quite strong for such a measure.
"The present ban of sales on state campuses is an inconvenience to students and faculty alike, and it has not achieved its purpose of reducing smoking," Porter said.
Porter thought students also hate to see the loss of revenue to their student union funds.
Steve Friesen, Russell junior and CYR campus chairman, thought the petitions were a way of letting the legislature know how KU students feel about this bill.
"WE HAVE distributed them to every organized living group on the hill. We refrained from putting them in the Kansas Union and school buildings because we thought it wasn't proper," Friesen said.
Friesen said the petitions that have been signed so far will be taken to the CYR state convention this weekend in Hutchinson. However, other petitions will remain in circulation until the middle of next week. All the petitions
will then be taken to the legislature by Bill Brier, co-author of the bill.
"There is no set amount of signatures necessary," Friesen said. "The response so far has been tremendous and we are expecting a great deal more."

Bill Evans is
one of the very tiny group of real poets we have: a sensitive, intuitive and imaginative genius in his medium." Jazz Magazine "The delicate probing fingers are like tendrils of sound that curl around the melodies with a wispy ethereal quality...Such music wears well. The more one listens, the more there is to hear." Down Beat Magazine That's what the jazz critics say about him. But even people who don't like jazz respond to Bill Evans. His music is tender, lyrical, passionate. It's A SIMPLE MATTER OF CONVICTION, and that's the title of his newest album, with Shelly Manne and Eddie Gomez (V/V6-8675). Treat yourself also to these two recent releases: INTERMODULATION with Jim Hall, guitar. (V/V6-8655) "The sustained interplay of the two musicians is of a quality rarely found in jazz." John S. Wilson BILL EVANS TRIO WITH SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA (V/V6-8640) "So perfect it's hard to distinguish between Bach, Chopin and Evans." Leonard Feather Exclusively on
