12 University Daily Kansan Taxi fares will jump in June By SHIRLEY SHOUP Staff Reporter Lawrence residents can expect a taxi-fare increase by the end of June. An ordinance passed by the Lawrence City Commission Tuesday deregulated the company but required a 30-day wait Thompson said the new rates would be the same as those he had requested, and been denied, before the city deregulated the The new rates will be 90 cents for the first one-eighth mile and 20 cents for each additional one-fourth mile. THE CURRENT rate is 70 cents for the first-seventh mile and 10 cents for each additional one-seventh mile. Under the current rates, a taxi ride from the Kansas Union to the Union Bus Dept. 608, Massachusetts, costs $1.18 when the bus is on the route. The city denied a rate increase in March because commissioners said Thompson could not show that an increase was Commissioner Ed Carter suggested then that the city should not control the taxi rates because the company was a private business. The city commission will review the tax rates in six months. "If they think I've gouged the public, then they will probably Thompson said gasoline costs were only one reason the rate increase was necessary. Thompson said his gasoline supplier had told him the price of gas would be going up 5 cents a gallon in the next week. but, ne沙,the minimum wage,workman's compensation, insurance and repairs and maintenance were also increasing. At the meeting, Commissioner Donald Bims said he thought the detritus was a mistake, but Mayor Randle Clover disagreed. "A couple of people have told me it'a a good idea, and if we can get some competition going, I'm all for it," he said. Carter said someone had called him and inquired about starting a cab company, but he would not say who the caller was. Thompson said anyone who wanted to start a company could do so, but he did not force a host competitor moving into Lawrence. "There might be some fly-by-nighters with one or two cabs, but they would be no real competition," he said. "If someone is serious about starting one up, I'm for sale. I’m tired of hassling with the city." BIRKENSTOCKS.DONT FIT LIKE SHOES.THEY DONT FIT LIKE SANDALS. THEY FIT LIKE FOOTPRINTS.

According to Warner Ferguson, associate director of the Union, food vending services on campus operate in the red. Figures taken from the 1978 Audit Report of the Union show that vending machines in Union University have a total of 314,247 halls served with $134,247. However, according to the report, vending operations cost $333,768, a loss of $19,511. Bv KATE POUND Staff Reporter The loss, however, is softened by a commission from the Coca-Cola Company, which owns several soft drink machines on its property. The commission is $7,000 and $8,000 each year. For ferguson said. The loss was absorbed into the total opening budget of the Union, Ferguson and MacKenzie. "IT'S IMPORTANT that you look at the total picture," he said. According to Ferguson, the Union is willing to take losses in some of its operations because it is a non-profit organization that is profitable operations help balance the deficit. Ferguson said vending was an important part of the Union's concession operations. The Union had a net profit of $617 last year, the audit report showed. "We were one of the first major colleges to really mush vending." he said. The operation began 25 years ago in the residence halls, according to Ferguson, and has grown to a total of 38 UNI-owned stores. The uni is a family, cigarettes and snacks all over campus. An additional benefit of the machines, he said, was that a percentage of the vending revenue was paid to the library fund of each residence hall. Ferguson credits the Union's service policies, low prices and refund policy for the benefits. "THEY'VE BEEN very well-received by the students," he said. According to the concession rights agreement between the University and the Union, the Union must pay each residence fee required to be incurred by in the vending machines in that hall. The Union also must pay the halls' 1 cait for each can of soft drinks sold in the halls, and 2 cait for each can of milk. Scholarship hallis, because of their low sales volume, receive 25 cents for each case of soft drinks sold, Larry Schmidtberger, business manager at the Union, said. "IT WAS FELT it would be nice to have IT WAS FELT in the laith and this is one source of IT WAS FELT" The halls receive from $40 to $250 a month from the vending machines, McElhenei said. The amounts vary because of the sizes and residents of each hall. Libraries have been established in each hall and the vending machine profits are used to purchase only books, periodicals and educational materials. McElennie said. According to the contract, which runs until July 1, 1982, the Union must maintain change banks in the residence hall, service the vending machines every day and submit reports of all vending operations, including pricing, to the Office of Housing. IN RETURN, the Union receives sole copyright rights in the halls while Housing provides secure locations for the machines and provides trash containers "I think the University encourages us to fulfill the commitment because we carry insurance and follow the health regulations," he said. "It's our understanding that they would like to limitation as much as possible to the Union." The Union can sell many of its vending machine products at a price lower than found in off-campus machines because, Ferguson said, of the high sales volume on campus and because the Union is a non-profit corporation. The Union's prices on candies, pastries and snack items are "in line with, or below" prices in off-campus machines, Jack Coulter, manager of branch, manager of B and B Vendig, said. The contract helps the University maintain health regulations and also helps the Union provide the vending service at a lower cost, Ferguson said. The Union also sells canned soft drinks and milk at a price that is 10 to 15 cents lower than the off-campus machines, including the Canteen Corporation, of Kansas City, Mo. "WE OUGHT to be able to sell things to students at a cheaper rate," he said. "We think we can keep the prices as low as they can be." "Their prices are about as low as can be found in Kansas," the spokesman said.
