Budget to Hayden for final approval
Package includes Margin of Excellence
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — The Legislature yesterday sent about three-quarters of the state's next annual budget to Gov. Mike Hayden, including money for theMargin of Excellence program for Board of Regents universi-
Other major bills passed included the "KanWork" 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 comproposition before the wrap-up session began.
"T
Their actions today in passing all but three of the remaining regular appropriations bills hopefully signifies a readiness to bring this session to a timely and orderly close.

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 $4.2 million for academic 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 plan, recognizing that need." Vancrum said.
However, Rep. Rochelle Chronister, R-Neodeas, 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 will beat Lake Superior in a new annual KSU Concrete Race.
"We've got the winning cake right here," he said. "This is the year. We've got all the calculations, we have to 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.
