TOPEKA-As expected, the Kansas House Ways and Means Committee yesterday approved the addition of $116,600 for women's athletics and a library security system to the fiscal 1980 KU budget.
Committee members also approved a transfer of $777,000 from an allocation for renovation of Marvin Hall to the Foundation.
Unexpected account to the budget were $80,000 to the Kansas State scholarship fund, $3,500 for the development of sandstone aquifers in western Kansas and $30,000 for the development of sandstone aquifers in eastern Kansas between KIU's Bureau of Child Research and the southeast
Also part of the governor's budget recommendations was a $1,277,500 allocation for the renegotiation of Marcun Hall.
However, committee members split that figure, allocating $1 million for the renovation of Marvin and Kirkwood.

said, are maintaining a 9.5 percent increase in student wages for next year, increasing the Kansas Scholarship program from $750,000 to $300,000 and raising a recommended faculty salary adjustment from 6 to 7 percent.
ZACHARIAS SAID the governor's recommended increase in student salaries would bring them in compliance with law.
Both the scholarship and faculty salary funding are needed, he said, to keep teachers and students at Karsas
"Faculty and students should not be enticed out of the state." he said.
ASK's other funding priorities, Zacharias said, are an increase in the fee waivers for graduate students from 60 to 100 percent, full reimbursement to universities for student union rentals, allocation of money for the removal of barriers for handicapped students, greater use of the salaries of Regents staff members from 2 to 1 percent.
problem was what to do with the existing carpet.
"The carpet is there," he said, "and you're just stuck with it."
Fischer said he knew one person who used a huge piece of canvas to cover the carpeting and got new color.
"Then he just picked it up and took it with him when he left." he said.
Blank walls, especially those of brick or concrete, are sometimes a problem in decorating. Helen Wulff, professional interior设计师, works its intersorts, 2851 Four Wheel Drive, said.
To make space on brick or concrete walls usable, Wallace covered the covering the wall or one section with a sheet or panel and set at the top and bottom by curtain bars.
Wallace said, "Framing things is really big—everything from Tshirts to old albums to towels—like from a hotel in Florida, with a name on it."
THAT SURFACE can be used to support items you wish to wang, she said.
Wall surfaces are open to a wide range of decorations including posters, pictures, placemats, grass mats, carpet remnants, wall art, decorative wood pieces and calendars.
Postcards, leaves, handkerchiefs,
seashells, medals and other small objects
also can be used for framing.
Gail Underdown, an employee at Public Hanging, 710 Massachusetts St., said two of the strangest things she had seen were a mason's trowel and an pillow.
Stretching pieces of fabric over frames or putting them inside frames is also popular, according to several Lawrence decorators.
WALL HANGINGS made of wheat are especially popular now, said Dorea Hall, owner of Dorea's Decorative Arts, 1006 New Hampshire St.
"It's so Kansas." Hall said. "I think the trend has been leaning for a long time toward natural things."
Inexpensive ways to make rooms look larger include mirrors on walls and light colored paint. Adhesive-backed mirror tiles serve the same purpose.
Cellings generally get little attention, but bare pipes running across them are hard to innove.
Interior design students suggested incorporating the pipes into the decor.
Students can hang things from them—flowers, plants, mobiles or wind chimes. Or, they can make the pipes themselves decorative by highlighting them, like painting them a different color than the rest of the room. DeWeese said.
PLANTS AND MOBILIES also can be used for gluing glue. A hanging lamp made by gluing glue on a frame, putting a light bulb in the middle is another example of decorating装饰, Jane Wong, works with gluing glue.
Insufficient storage space is frequently a problem, but there are a few remedies.
Orange crates, milk crates, prefabricated cubicles, or any kind of box that stacks well can be used to increase storage and shelf space.
Five and 10 gallon ice cream containers or even trash cans make excellent storage bins. Wong said.
Furnishing existing space can also be a problem, Dunkley said, but combinations of pillows, boxes, boards and concrete furniture are practical and versatile furniture for students.
The impersonality of dwellings can be reduced, Dunkley said, supplementing the "cold, green cast" of fluorescent lighting incandescent lightening from study lamps.
"It generally gives a warmer, homier, feeling to a place," she said.
Another suggestion is to personalize the living area by displaying collections: books, glasses, bottles, figurines, rocks or medals.
Blueprints and sheet music can also easily be incorporated into decorative wall coverings. Hixson said.
Janis Pizzato, Deerfield, III. interior design student, said a matching bedspread and curtains, which could easily be made from white sheets, could help personalize a room.
She also suggested using contact paper on shades or Venetian blighters to brighten

He said the total end hours in the school had risen from 83 to 119 students. Mr.user said 119 students majoring in structural engineering were listed under School of Engineering but were also enrolled in School of Architecture and in Design.
IE SCHOOL OF Social Welfare had a ease of 13 students. Edith Black, dant dean, said the school's practicum ram limited the number of students taught in each course; the school requires students work as social workers in action with their class work.
a School of Pharmacy, the other school rding a decline, had one less student spring than last spring.

The Graduate School had the largest increase, 101 students. Dorothy Haglund, assistant to the dean of liberal arts, said the Graduate School's admission process is more difficult to answer, but some departments had a higher acceptance because of space and staff restrictions.
The second largest gain was in the School of Fine Arts, which had an increase of 46 percent.
"We've had a very steady rise." Don Scheid, associate dean, said. "We haven't experienced any drastic or falls. I think enrolment is leveling off."

David Kraft, dean of engineering, attributed the growth of the school to a strong job market and an increase in enrollment by women and minorities.
Although the School of Law enrollment increased by 19, Martin Dickinson, dean of the school, said he expected the school's enrollment to remain fairly stable.
This year, the school accepted 190 students out of 650 who applied.
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, which had an increase of 18 students, has had slight increases during the past few years, according to Bob Adams, associate
