SenEx to discuss merger
The University Senate executive committee will discuss today a plan to merge the university with the New York State College of Pharmacy.
Evelyn Swartz, chairman of SenEx, said the committee would focus on the proposed merger of the men's backyard, which is the KU women's Athletics Advisory Board.
Swartz has said the representation on the new board must not be as complete as that.
The merger proposal was submitted in February to Chancellor Archie R. Dykes in a letter from Del Shankel, executive vice chancellor; Marian Washington, director of women's athletics; and Bob Marcum, director of men's athletics.
The current men's board has 20 members and the women's board has 16 members. The combined board would have 15 members. The two parties voted and eight would be ex officio members.
The proposed membership of the board would comprise three elected faculty
representatives, three elected alumn
representatives and one student athlete
Compared with the current men's board, the faculty, alumni and student representation would be cut in half. Compared with the current women's board, faculty representatives would be cut from four to three, and student members from two to one.
ON THE PROPOSED board, the eight ex officio members would be the university comproller, the vice chancellor for student affairs, the student body president, the chairman of the Student Senate Sports Committee, the executive secretary of the University, the executive director of the University, a faculty representative to the Big Eight Athletics conference and National Collegiate Athletics Association and a faculty representative to the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women.
Compared with the current men's board, this would eliminate one ex officio member; the chair position on the board would be replaced by an executive director of the Alumni Association.
The proposal would eliminate the following ex officio members from the women's board: president of the council of women athletes, chairman of the health, recreation and recreation department and the representative from the chancellor's office.
Smoke detector warns of blaze
A smoke alarm has been credited with saving the lives of two residents of a mobile home that was almost destroyed by *n* fire late Monday night.
Firefighters said Alice L. Smith and her son Jason were asleep when a smoke alarm sounded in their mobile house at 101 N. Allegra St., alerting them to a fire in the home.
Damage to the home and contents was estimated at $7,000 by firefighters. The cause of the blaze is being investigated by fire officials.
