Chancellor Gene A. Budig spoke in a packed Strong Hall righteyunda yesterday after about 80 students who were upset about the racial climate at KU marched to the administrative offices and demanded action.
Budig, who was attending meetings at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., returned to Lawrence when he learned about the protest. He arrived at Strong about 4 p.m.

- Check with your parents' policy; it may cost less to stay on their plan.
- Keep up the good grades;
you can save up to 25 percent with a g.p.a. of 3.0 or higher.
- Go beyond the basics;
bodily injury liability cover should protect you against any lawsuit or $100,000.
- Avoid high deductibles.
Optional coverage, collision and comprehensive, should have a low enough deductible so you can afford what the insurance company doesn't cover.

CRX powerful and sporty
by Dan Hadel
If you are a KU student looking for a reliable, comfortable car but also yearn for sportiness, Honda has brought the answer. The Honda CRX SI combines the quality engineering that has made the name Honda synonymous with value along with the power and fun desired in a sports car.
The CRX SI is driven by a 1.6 liter, 16 valve, fuel-injected engine, and shifts smartly with a 5-speed manual transmission. The CRX SI gets 28 miles per gallon in the city and 33 mpg on the highway. Front-wheel drive makes it the perfect year-round car for any weather conditions. And if you're tired of being pushed around on the highway by Mother Nature's crosswinds on those trips home, the
CRX S1 aerodynamic shape allows it to cruise controllably on the highway. Slim pillars give the driver a greater outward visibility of 280 degrees.
Honda backs up their cars with a 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty. This warranty along with a price range of $9,500 to $12,000, makes the CRX SI the perfect pick for the student desiring quality and sportiness.
