MUSEUMS Continued from p. 1
"They were real critical issues." Ashe said, "I felt the museum did not have adequate support in order to support its role for the graduate students, professors and the general public."
Ashe said a good start would be to elevate a secretary from a half-time position to full-time.
"It is essential to handle the increased activity of the museum," he said. "It (the museum) is a major systematic resource. In order to fulfill that role, we need to add the staff."
Ashe said the salary for the present collections manager was paid for by a grant from the National Science Foundation. The grant has paid the manager's salary for the past three years, but it runs out in May.
He said the salary would be taken
over by Margin funds, but the source of the money really didn't matter.
"The important thing is that the University supports the positions they promised," he said.
The Museum of Natural History,
meanwhile, needs to add staff to
relieve the strain on graduate stu-
dents working at the museum.
Bearse said.
Bearse said adding staff, rather than raising salaries, would better remedy the situation.
"The graduate students are grossly underpaid," he said. "But we would not use money to raise salaries; it's just that we've got so many jobs for them to do that we need to add more people."
"We're spreading the money further rather than thin," he said.
Bearse said the Herbarium needed a new director. He was unsure whether money from the Margin would help finance it.

"We are not sure what resources we will have to commit to get that," he said.
Hyundai Computers Introduced to Kansas
DENVER (FSI). The Hyundai Corporation has selected Connecting Point Computer Centers as their exclusive authorized dealer in Lawrence and Manhattan, Kansas. This selection follows the signing of a major supply contract with the 180 store Connecting Point chain here last month.
Hyundai, the $24 billion company known for its high quality, economical cars, has been a major producer of microcomputers for the past several years.
Hyundai's Super 167E line of PCs follows their automotive tradition of price/performance. Myles Schachter, Connecting Point President, said that he chose the Hyundai product line because of its great price, high speed and excellent software bundle. Each Hyundai, he said, is fast at 1 MHz or twice as fast as the original PC, has a full 640K memory, $12" or $14" flat amber screen and a 101 keyboard.
The Electric Desk software included with every computer is a quality word processor, spreadsheet and database. The system also comes with Keyworks, a program to store keystrokes.
Dr. Rhonda Ross, the firm's Customer Support Manager, has found that the price has not compromised the construction of these powerful PCs. She states that the systems appear to be trouble free and highly compatible. She said this explains the manufacturer's 18 month warranty - far in excess of the industry standard.
Hvundai Super 16TE
Due to the new Connecting Point-Hyundai contract, the Manhattan and Lawrence stores are introducing these PCs at more than 20% off already competitive compatible prices with training included with every purchase. Already, United Telephone Midwest Group, Menninger's Foundation and PARS Service has selected Connecting Point to provide Hyundai PCs to their employees.

Museums to receive financing
FINANCIAL INCENTIVE PROVIDED
BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH GROUP
Under the Margin of Excellence, three science museums on campus would receive a total of $60,000. This year's proposal asks for $45,000 to help pay for salaries. The other $15,000 would finance operating expenditures. The Herbarium may also receive some money to hire a new director.
The Museum of Anthropology would receive money to finance the salaries of a collection manager, a contract archeologist, and a outreach coordinator. The positions are already partially financed in this year's budget.
The Museum of Entomology would receive money to add a collections manager.
The Museum of Natural History would add staff members to relieve the strain on graduate students working at the museum.

He Wanted to Play in the Major Leagues
ROBERT RELFORD started college at the University of Colorado on a baseball scholarship. But when he decided on an acting career, he knew there was one place to be, one school where he'd get the best training. The American Academy of Dramatic Arts.
Since 1884, the American Academy of Dramatic Arts has been training professional actors—actors who have won nominations for 89 Oscars, 60 Tony and 142 Emmy Awards. Many alumni, including Peter Weller, Kate Jackson, Gary Sandy, Cleawon Little, Christine Ebersole, Stepfanie Kramer and Scott Valentine, came to the Academy after attending traditional colleges for a year or more and then deciding to study acting full-time. The Academy offers a two-year Professional Training Program, an invitational Third Year performing program, and a six-week Summer program.
If you want to play in the major leagues, come to the American Academy. There's still time to register for our February semester. Call now.
