Student body leader vows to veto budget amended by Senate Krakow objects for $1,600 for Crew
By Jeff Moberg
Kansan staff writer
Student body president Jason Kraak last night n 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 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
"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.
Cassell said that KU Crew deserved a new shell as well as the set of 948.
"They not only bring good times and an education, but they bring recognition to the University," he said.
David Brandt, KU Crew captain.
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," Shirtliffe said. "I really have some problem with that."
"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 past."

STYLES
W what's new for spring? The color is green, especially lime and chartreuse.
The pattern is floral, and the fabric is washed silk or body-hugging Lyrca® spandex. The motif is nautical, and many styles are reminiscent of the '60s.
Dresses , . . femininely romantic. Fabrics are sheer and silky, many with floral prints. Important tailoring trends include fitted bodices, full skirts, simple necklines and buttoned backs. Multiple tiers and flounces add a fifty touch.
Another option is the "Jacqueline Onassis" look in linen. It offers simply constructed dresses in solid colors, often with white accents.
Shorts . . . now for dressing up. Shorts are taking the place of skirts for dressy occasions, especially with jackets for a business look. They are walking shorts, sometimes called "city" shorts, and they often are made of linen. As sportwear for men and women, shorts are taking the shapo of bicycle pants, worn very tight, cut to mid-thigh length and made of a stretch knit.
How much leg skirts reveal is a heated issue in the fashion world right now. "Like it or not, miniskirts are here to stay and shorter than ever this year," says JoAnn McFarland of Saks Fifth Avenue in Kansas City, Mo. True, you will see many more minis this year than last, but women across the country are rebelling. Many refuse to buy short skirts, forcing designers to come out with both short and long styles. This means that for now, women have a choice. Although the long, narrow styles are turning up less frequently, long, full skirts are still a viable option for those who don't have the shape for a mini. For those who can wear them, short skirts are worn casually as well as for dressing up, and they are a cool alternative to shorts.
Jeans . . . "double chemical!" in place of acid wash. The new process creates jeans with a pale, even color, not blotchy as acid-washed jeans were. Also seen are jeans patched with different fabrics and adorned with embroidery. Later in the season and into the fall, dark denim will make a comeback.
Pants . . . getting wider at the hem. The wide look hasn't reached Lawrence yet, but be prepared. Otherwise, capri pants, made of stretch knit and ending at mid-calf, are hot.
Tops ... cropped away. Tank tops are tight and short, some looking nearly like jogging bras. Bandeaus are big. Lots of styles are made of clingy stretch knits.
Swinsuits . . . tanks are hot. Many have low backs and spaghetti straps. Monokinis are back. Bikinis are in, in but new shapes. The string is out; baneaus and bra tops are in. The panty has a higher waist than last season's. Suits are made in metallics or tropical prints, or they are black with a bright flash of color. Some suits have studded designs on the front.
Career looks . . . long jackets with short skirts. How much skirt shows below the jacket depends on what skirt length a woman is comfortable with. Jackets are either long and boxy or short and fitted. The skirt that goes with a short, fitted jacket must be shorter to look balanced. But beware of buying a too-short skirt for work. Most men and women in the business world agree that a very short skirt is inappropriate for the office. Both Jacket styles can be paired with dressy city shorts as an alternative. Underneath, instead of the usual collared shirt, many designers prefer a sheer, silky blouse, simply cut.
Eveningwear . . . also short. Most styles are strapless and have flounces or multiple tiers. Crinolines still peek from underneath skirts, and bubble-shaped skirts are back from last season. Florals up this spring, and the important fabrics are tafeta and organa.
Shees . . . slingbacks are big, in heels and flats. Aknstrap shoes and ballet slippers with ribbons that lace around the ankle are in. Fabric-covered shoes dyed to match and canvas spadrilres in floral, striped or bold, geometric patterns are popular. Woven leather shoes with lace ties update the hurache style for both men and women.
Accessories . . . golden, dangly earrings and bright, chunky bangles worn in multiples . . . watches with big faces, Roman numerals and reptile bands . . . large silk flowers to pin on dresses, collars, hats, purse straps and in the hair . . . scarves as sashes around the waist, as hat bands or as replacements for last season's bows . . . wide-brimmed straw hats laquered in bright colors . . . cinch belts in assorted colors, especially black . . . tights with flowers or bold, geometric shapes.
Menwear . . . washed silk. In Kansas City, Mo., and across the country, silk is turning up in shirts and shorts for men. The fabric has a matte finish and is extremely soft and comfortable. In Lawrence, however, shoppers will not find it. Cotton still reigns here. The reason: Men who shop in Lawrence tend to be more conservative, says Jeremy Furse of Britches Corner. Generally, they resist the flashy New York styles and opt for more classic, preppy looks. For those men, silks are going too far. Furse says. His customers prefer what he calls an "undated traditional" look
Colors, patterns ... black and white ...
black with fluorescent brights — acid green,
shocking pink, burning orange ... navy and
white, red and white ... polka dots;
stipes; checks; bold, geometric prints;
floralis.
Because it is a classic look, the nautical motif is well represented in Lawrence. The "Out of Africa" look is back, as well. Mud-washed madrases is the latest pattern. Crests on the breast pocket decorate button-downs and casual shirts. Suits are updated with a subtle thread of color woven into a neutral background.
Some fun, new patterns show up on silk ties. Bold geometrics and optical illusion prints take the place of the traditional repeat patterns and paisleys. Some designs are reminiscent of the '40s and '50s.
