Businesses support limits on bookstores
By Chris Siron

Kansan staff writer
A proposal that could lead to limitations on what KU bookstores sell was discussed in a Kansas Senate committee yesterday.
The Senate Economic Development Committee studied a proposal to establish a three-member Private Enterprise Review Board. This board would determine when state officials compete with private businesses.
The 1989 Joint Committee on Economic Development drafted the proposal in the fall in response to complaints from Lawrence and Manhattan businessmen about unfair competition from KU and K-State university bookstores.
Bill Muggy, manager of the Jayhawk Bookstore, a private store at 1420 Crescent Road, said yesterday that "unaffair leveraged competition by the University of Kansas for the private sector dollars runs unchecked and deep."
Supporters of the proposal worry that state-operated agencies, such as the KU bookstores, can sell popular cheaper than private businesses can
Myles Schachter, owner of Connecting Point Computer Center, 804 University Avenue. The stoves had become too profit-minded. He said they took advantage of their
low rent and that property tax was not assessed on state property.
Schachter said legislation was needed to curb the entrepreneurial spirit of state institutions.
Schachter said the bookstores did not limit their business to students. He said they had grown increasingly specialized with howwward services to off-campus residents.
Ted Ayres, general counsel for the Board of Regents, said the board opposed the proposal because it made them bookstores' ability to serve students.
Schachter said KU bookstores had become the third-largest business in Lawrence with annual sales of $20 million
He said the computer sales in the Burge Union had put his business "in dire straits" and forced him to cut his staff in half.
He said that because Lawrence depended on student business, KU bookstores could affect local stores. But, he said, KU bookstores did not gain an unfair advantage simply because students chose to shop there.
Ayres said he doubled KU books earned a $20 million each year.
"Schachter has made many claims, not all of which have been substantiated," he said.
