Proposed cuts ieopardize classes
Bv ALISON YOUNG
Kansas bleak economic situation has hit home for KU students, hundreds of whom were turned away from full classes for next semester.
The University's budget, which already was strained by a record fall enrollment, faces more tightening because of Governor-elect Mike Hayden's proposed 3.8 percent budget cuts for all state agencies. KU officials said recently.
Administrators said last week that about 100 sections, in which students pre-employed, could be taken.
Class offerings are so limited that the University may send advisory letters to students who have been admitted for the spring semester and plan to
enroll next month, officials said.
Bruce Lindvall, director of admissions, said he didn't want students to pack up and move to Kansas if the courses they were expecting weren't available.
According to statistics generated by the enrollment center Nov. 26, after main enrollment was completed, several basic classes turned away hundreds of students.
The statistics show the number of students who tried to enroll in a course but couldn't because it was full. These figures may be inflated because a single student could have been turned away from several choices in the same department.
■Math 115 enrolled 330 students, but turned away 9; MATH 121 enrolled 188, but denied 23; and MATH 122 enrolled 382, but denied 51.
According to Statistics:
Western Civilization 104 enrolled 678 students.
- Five of the seven liberal arts required 200-level English courses were closed, turning away a total of 758 students, including 26 juniors and one senior.
Economics 104 enrolled 303 students, but turned away. 183.
Political Science 110 enrolled 501 students, but denied 271.

TEGUCIGALPA. Honduras — Honduran warplanes and troops ferryed by U.S. helicopters yesterday attacked about 1,000 Nicaraguan government forces who had violated Honduran territory, the United States and Honduras said.
In Managua, Nicaraguan Foreign Minister Miguel d'Escoto said U.S. warplanes had bombed two
troops along the two countries' border in response to an incursion Thursday by 200 Nicaraguan troops who allegedly attacked a border outpost, wounding three Honduran soldiers and capturing two others.

kind of gossip that interested the campus."
Another person who remembers the Owl for its racy reputation is Nora Cleland, editor of the Oread.
Cieland was at KU during the late 40s and spent a lot of time working at the Lawrence Daily Journal-World.
"I remember the Sour Owl as being very naughty," Cieland said. "But it was great fun to read.
"The kids who wrote that thing were clever, I remember being at the Journal-World, sitting around waiting for the next issue to come in so we could see what they'd done next."
The Owl was published peacefully until it finally died in the spring of 1956.
Sigma Delta Chi decided that
the spring '56 issue would lampoon "confidential" magazines, gossip magazines which were popular during the '50s, according to Calder Pickett, Clyde M. Reed distinguished professor of journalism.
In the final issue, the staff members lampooned then-Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy. They also parodied men's basketball coach F.C. "Phog" Allen, for whom Allen Field House was named.
The issue was just too much for many readers in high places. Probations, reprimands and apologies again followed the Owl.
That time,however,would be the last time.
Since 1956, the owl has been dormant. Only in the archives can it be found today.
Ryther said he missed the Owl and wished more humorous writing would appear at KU.
"I think there's a place on this campus for a high-quality humor magazine," he said. "But 'it'll have to be good — really good."
