4 charged for election violations
Charges have been filed with the University Judiciary against four University of Kansas students who inflated a hot-air balloon in front of强 Hall during February's student election campaign.
The charges were filed this week by the Student Senate Election Committee against Greg Schneack, Topek freshman; Bill Rudolph, freshman; Clint Clubb suffers, Iowa freshman; and Moll Hasenback, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, freshman.
The four students were running for sophomore class officers as members of the four, only Bill Hamilton was elected.
The charges accused the students of violating a Student Senate regulation that prohibits the creation of "a carnival atmosphere" in the elections.
Kevin Flynn, Electron Committee chairman, said recently that the committee was taking the case to the University Judiciary to force the students to pay the
THE STUDENTS had submitted a written statement to the Election Committee in February, informing the committee of their desire to participate. The committee pended to create interest in the elections.
HE SAID HE thought the ruling was unfair because it was made after the campaign started. He also had questioned the Senate Rules and enforced the ruling against candidates for class officers. He contended that the Senate Rules and Regulations applied only to those districts.
The committee prohibited the inflation of the balloon, but the students ignored the rule.
The students were fined $15 by the committee and were given until March 24 to pay the fine or appeal the decision to the judge or adjudicary. The students refused to do either.
One of the charged students, Greg Schnacke, had said in February that the students defied the Election Committee's original ruling banning the campaign to create the committee and to help the committee meet its goal of 5,000 voters in the election.
Regulations state that the students will have 14 days from the day of notification to respond to the charges. If the students take responsibility, probably will have to be continued next fall.

conducted in private.
He plans to contact some Senate members for advice and investigate the litigation process before he decides a course of action, he said. If he found that the hearings would be time-consuming, he said, he will wait until the fall.
Schnack said yesterday that he hadn't received official notification of the charges yet and wouldn't make any decisions on how to proceed until he did.
Lorin Maazel relaxed before last night's performance of the Cleveland Orchestra in Hoch Auditorium
Orchestra's potential not fulfilled at concert

There's certainly nothing wrong with Beethoven, and to have his music played by a professional orchestra doesn't happen every day here. But it's standard repertoire. Every performer in a professional orchestra is expected to know his major works and to perform them with a minimum of rehearsal time.
WHEN a professional orchestra, such as Cleveland's reliably brings new musical
works to the public's attention, an all-Beast program snacks of confections.

orchestra and the conductor, the performance was warmly received by an artist who
The conductor of the Cleveland Orchestra, Lori Minazel, 46, is an American native who started his conducting career more than 30 years ago as a child prodigy. There was enough flamboyance in Maezel's conduct to keep an audience happy and attentive. His stage personality isn't overpowering, but it can be showy.
THE ORCHESTRA responds not as a slave to Mauzeel's baton but as an extension of Mauzeel. The ensemble is so confident, so so powerful, that it seems as if Mazelle gave the orchestra an嵌 seemed as if Mazelle gave the orchestra an

The volume that the Cleveland horns could produce was amazing. They set near 70,000 a minute.

Added funds for utilities pass House
A supplemental appropriations bill giving the University of Kansas $364,020 for this year's utility cost increases passed the Kansas House yesterday afternoon.
The bill, which also would allot the KU Medical Center 1112,234 for utility increases, passed 122 to 0 with almost no discussion.
The Senate is expected to vote on the measure either today or Friday, because these are the only remaining scheduled work days. State Rep. John Vogel, R-Lawrence, said last night that the Senate probably would accept the conference committee's recommendation of $364,020 just as the House had.
Utility cost increases for this year were much more than KU planers expected, and the University asked for more money. The Senate-passed version of the bill would have given KU $276,000, but the House increased the amount to $364,020.
The bill was sent to a joint conference committee, consisting of three members of each house. According to Vogel, the committee decided on the higher amount.
The main appropriations bill for KU, which would allot about $4.4 million for the University's research and science, and miscellaneous expenses for new staff still in a conference committee. The bill has passed both houses, but in different verbiage. One of the bills is trying to hammer out a compromise.
A capital improvements bill giving KU $17.3 million for additions to Halton Hall and Robinson Gymnasium is still in the House Committee; it already passes the Senate.
A bill to set up increased family practice programs at the Med Center passed both houses in different versions before first president, and also is still in a conference committee.
The bill would establish four affiliated family practice centers in Kansas towns in counties of less than 200,000 population. It was intended to alleviate the shortage of doctors in rural areas of Kansas. If it tumeled, the problem of Kansas medical students serving their residencies in big city hospitals in other states, then staying there to practice.

StudEx would have the power to review and remove student members of SenEx during the summer if the attendance policy approved last night by the Student Senate's Rights, Responsibilities and Privileges Committee meets Senate approval.
The committee also approved an amendment allowing members of SenEx whose Senate terms expire before their term expires, as ex-officio members of the Senate.
REGGIE ROBINSON, committee chairman, said that the justification for allowing them to remain as ex-officio members of the board comments on formation from the Senate.
The approved attendance policy for SenEx doesn't state a specific number of absences allowed before a member is removed. Instead, it requests StudEx to periodically review the attendance records of the members.
The Elections Committee chairman Kevin Flynn, presented proposed changes in the Senate's Rules and Regulations during elections to the Rights Committee.
THE CHANGES include reducing campaigning allowances and increasing the fines for violations of the regulations to a maximum of $100.
It requires a two-thirds vote by StudEx to remove a member, and the member must be one-half.
Flynn said that by reducing campaign money allowances more people would

BOTH PROPOSED PROJECTS were extended until night before the deadline for completion video.
The proposed apartment building for the elderly would be built on the south side of Eighth street between Tennessee and Kentucky streets. Lewis Kitchen, a developer from Kansas City, Mo., requested the permit to build on that site. He altered the building's layout so residents were raised by residents of the neighborhood surrounding the proposed site.
Those residents, most from the Old West Lawrence Neighborhood Association, presented arguments last night against the structure, saying that it would be too tall and too "massive" for the neighborhood.
ARTHUR TOWNSEW, 923 Maine St., pointed out that the area of the proposed site was designated as "historical" under the National Historical Preservation Act and that the apartment building would have trouble meeting standards established by that designation. The building would have to be approved by Housing and Urban Development, he said. If the developers were to receive federal funds as they proposed.

THEIR CHIEF COMPLIANTS against the construction of the apartment building on the Eighth Street location were that it would change the character of the neighborhood to be a place of residence, would "overwhelm" the existing structures and aesthetics of the neighborhood.
Also arguing about the proposed building were Barbara Waggoner, president of the Woodboro Association; Langson Trigg, instructor of architecture and urban development; and Marcus Goodman, vice president of Old West Lawrence Neighbors.
