Budget to Hayden for final approval
Package includes Margin of Excellence

TOPEKA **The Legislature yesterday sent about three-quarter of the state's next annual budget to Gov. Mike Hayden, including money for the Margin of Excellence program for Board of Regents universi-
Other major bills passed included the "KanWoK" welfare reform program and salary increases for judges.
The House and the Senate passed eight appropriations bills containing close to $3 billion in spending. Hayden had proposed a $4.2 billion budget for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1.
Hayden praised the Legislature for tackling major appropriations bills on the first day of its wrap-up session. The House-Senate conference committee negotiated the compromise before the wrap-up session began.

appropriations bills hopefully signifies a readiness to bring this session to a timely and orderly close," Hayden said.
The Margin of Excellence program was proposed by the regents as a way of making state universities more competitive with their peers in other states and to increase faculty salaries.
A conference committee agreed to spend a total of $9.1 million to fund
the program, $5.3 million for salary increases and $3.8 million to improve other academic programs. The regents had requested a total of $10.8 million, $6.3 million for salary increases and $2.9 million for programs. The extra money would increase faculty salaries by an average of 7.5 percent.
Rep. Robert Vancrum, R-Overland Park, urged his colleagues to reject the conference committee's compromise on the Regents budget. The House had voted only to fund the salary increases.
"This has been rather a substantial change in philosophy — we said we would fund the faculty part of the program, recognizing that need." Vancrum said.
However, Rep. Rochelle Chroniser, R-Neodesha, said many of the universities would use the extra program money to hire extra professors.
Students will race canoes at KSU
By Julie Adam
Kansan staff writer
Sink or win is the motto for KU civil engineering students this weekend.
The students, who built and will race their concrete canoes in Manhattan on Saturday, say they will win.
Dan Lanning, Ottawa junior,
was putting the final coat of paint
on the canoe that he says beat
the Lake Superior rafters in the
Annual KSU Concrete Canoe Race.
"We've got the winning canoe right here," he said. "This is the canoe, and the calculation, it's not a big sink unless there are big waves."
Ben Frevert, Pomona senior,
said that about 25 civil engineers
have helped to construct the canoe,
which is a different design than canoes that KU engineers have made in the past.
PERLMAN, CHER, COSBY
McManness leaned back in his chair, ignoring the mike cord, and recalled his conversations with the members of Mummenschanz, who came from Switzerland. "It was great to talk to some people from a different culture," he said. "One of the big things: during your short moments, you get to really relax. You find out things. Like the morning or evening, you get to relax one of the mimes said that the culture in the United States is an entirely different environment."
Buchholz continued, "The compensations (for the long hours) are more in the people you meet than anything else. It's rewarding to get the exposure to everything."
Buchholz watched Itzhak Perlman warm up before a performance at Hoch. "He likes to warm up do maybe some bluegrass or country-type stuff, just the things that he likes to do. Things he likes to fiddle with for fun. He likes to play. A very up person, very upbeat. When he walks on stage he's all serious and gives a very serious performance. But when he comes back, he'll just play around. He is a fun person."
Not all performers have been friendly and fun, Buchholz said. When Buchholz was still new to KU, Sonny and Cher
performed in a sold-out Allen Field House. The singers brought their sound own crew and system, and Buchholz said the sound system didn't work. The couple tried to cut their scheduled 45-minute show to 20 minutes because of the poor sound. SUA threatened to sue, so the show went on.
"It just stuck out as the worst of an arrogant show team," he said. "They had a limo waiting. As soon as they were off the stage, when normally people would do an encore, they were in the limoine and gone."
McManness remembered a rock group that did know how to use a sound system — Molly Hatcher. Their sound person wore Boeing 747-approved hearing protectors. "They said to 'red-line it,' which means to run it to the max. I was putting cotton in my ears and hearing protectors over my ears. I got in this room when they started and shut the door. Dust just started filtering down because they were over-powering the hall."
To Buchholz, the most memorable entertainer was Bill Cosby, who was at Hoch the night that Martin Luther King, Jr. was shot. Cosby had completed the first of two shows on his tour in 1972 when he made Cosby made calls around the country to get details. Then he
went on for the second show.
"He went into about 15 to 20 minutes of it and told the audience that he couldn't do it; it was useless," he said. "Of course, the audience was shocked. They had been standing outside when all of this had occurred and didn't know what was happening. It was amazing that he could get that far through the show."
Both men said the professionals they had watched usually gave their all for every show. They told about Bonnie Raitt, who played her guitar so hard that when she came off stage during a break, Buchholz noticed that her fingers were bleeding. She went back out for the second set with her fingers cleaned up. But when she returned at the end of the show, her fingers were bleeding again. The audience never knew, but Buchholz did.
