Student body leader vows to veto budget amended by Senate Krakow obiects for $1,600 for Crew

Student body president Jason Krakow last night vowed to veto any budget that contained additional money for the KU Crew.
"If this is the only capital expenditure request made, I don't think it's a sound budget and I will veto it," Krakow said during a special budget session of Student Senate. "It's not consistent."
Senate last night amended the Senate Finance Committee's proposed budget and voted to give KU Crew an additional $1,600 to buy a set of eight oars. The committee's original recommendation called for KU Crew to receive $7,875. Krakow said it would not be fair to other student organizations to give only the crew team money for capital expenses.
Krakow also objected to KU Crew's request for more equipment so soon
"Obviously, that was not the case," Krakow said, "I thought they would stick to what they said last year with a good faith agreement."
Earlier in the evening, John Cissel, liberal arts senator, made a motion to restore a request from KU Crew that would have used Senate money to buy a four-man shell costing $8,200. This request was denied by the Finance Committee during budget hearings because the committee was hesitant to finance any large expenditure unless it was necessary for a group's survival.
Cissell said that KU Crew deserved the new shell as well as the set of
"They not only bring good times and an education, but they bring recognition to the University," he said.
David Brandt, KU Crew captain,
said that the club needed the year
Glenn Shirtliffe, Finance Committee chairman, said that the Senate should not finance the shell because of the cost and because KU Crew needed to plan for future expenditures.
"If this goes through, they are going to walk out of here with one-fourth of the budget," Shirttale said. "I have some problem with that."
Roger Templin, Nunemaker senator, noted the amount of money KU Crew had received in the past.
"We do have a fixed amount of money and there will be future requests," Templin said. "The question for this body to decide is whether they want to spend that much on one organization, especially with the large amounts we've spent in the post."
By 10:30 p.m. yesterday, the Sonata had concluded by 8:47 f.
for a few hours out of Los Angeles, so the observation car was very popular and seats were scarse. I skipped lunch and dinner, settling for a microwaved cheese-burger from the snack bar so I wouldn't lose my seat.
That time, they didn't give any warning. After we had stopped at a station, I asked a passing attendant if it was San Jose. He said yes.
The Chief's Round-up came a little earlier that evening. I sat on the observation deck with a guy from Dallas on spring break and a guy from Los Angeles who was heading to Seattle to look for work. I watched the clock as we talked, knowing that we were soon due in San Jose, but also knowing that they always announced stops five minutes ahead to give passengers time to return to their seats and collect their stuff.
I panicked. I grabbed my jacket, said goodbye and hurried toward the car where I had left my bags, although I wasn't sure

if it was three or four cars behind me. As I went down the aisles, I had to dodge passengers who were getting on the train. I knew that when they were all on, we'd leave. I guessed that the third car back was mine, went down the stairs, found my bag and scurried off. My brother was waiting outside.
Sometimes, I was bored, and sometimes, lonely. Why all that is fun, I don't know, but it is.
The trip took 43 hours. It cost about as much as a discount plane ticket.

Treeby said that the national Presbytery might dismiss Swaggart from the denomination if he resumed preaching May 22 but that Swaggart could appeal that.
Juleen Turnage, a spokeswoman for the national office of the Assemblies of God in Springfield, Mo., said Swagart's option to return after three months "does not exist anymore."
"The General Presbytery overwhelmingly and without a dissenting vote affirmed the authority of the Executive Presbytery to make decisions on matters concerning ministerial credentials," she said yesterday.
Although the 13-member Executive Presbytery, which acts as the church board of directors, interrupted its regular bimonthly meeting to watch Treebey's televised news conference, "We don't consider that we've heard from Jimmy Swaggart, because we don't communicate through television news conferences with our disciplined ministers," Turnage said.
The Rev. R. Raymond Carlson, he assemblies' general superintendent, said Tuesday that if swaggart did not accept its ruling, 'the Executive Presbytery would to doubt take action to dismiss
Asked if Swaggart had considered leaving the Assemblies, Freeby said, "He is considering his possibility of an appeal.
