flP datelines eSens will discuss requests
Wichita, Kan.-Being the only woman in the U.S.
Senate is "kind of scary" admits Nancy Landon
Kassebaum, "but I'm hopeful that there will be other
women coming along."
The daughter of 1936 GOP presidental nominee an J
former Kansas Gov. Alf Landon coasted to victcy
Tuesday in her first try for major office, defeating former
congressman Bill Roy, a Democrat.
Mrs. Kassebaum became the first woman to represent
Kansas in the Senate and only the second woman to be
elected a senator. Former Sen. Margaret Chase Smith
of Maine, also a Republican, was the first.
Gambling voted down
Although Missourians said yes, voters in three other
states said no to measures that would have legalized
gambling.
Despite proponents' predictions that legalized casino
gambling would toss a needed economic lifeline to the
Miami Beach ocean-front resort area, 72 percent of voting
Floridians swamped the plan in "no" votes.
In New Jersey, the first Atlantic City gambling casino
opened just six months ago and voters said Tuesday that
was enough: they rejected a proposal to allow sports
betting on jai alai by a 60 percent vote.
In Virginia, 53 percent turned down a proposal to
allow pari-mutuel betting at horse tracks.
But in Missouri, voters approved a small wording
change that will permit them to participate in games like
the Readers' Digest Sweepstakes.
Amin makes offer
Nairoi, Kenya-President Idi Amin offered Wednesday
to withdraw his troops from the 710 square miles of
Tanzanian Territory he annexed nine days ago. But first,
Amin said in a broadcast speech, Tanzania must promise
never to invade his country again and stop assisting
Ugandan exiles living in Tanzania from carrying out "sub
versive activities" against Uganda.
NIT Rnard nf Recents is srhfrliilfr! tn
discuss a variety of controversial requests
at its meeting Friday.
Among these issues is a request by
ASUN president Ken Marienau to deposit
$40,000 from the Student Activities Fi
nancial Services account to the ASUN
Credit Union.
The credit union, which began opera
tions in August, was designed to provide a
high savings yield, low loan rates and a
credit rating for the students.
Marienau's recommendation states that
all student organizations are required to
deposit all their funds through the Student
Activities Financial Services office. The
current balance of these funds does not
usually fall below $220,000 and the pro
posed deposit to the credit union would be
about 18 percent of the normal minimum
balance.
Another request to be considered is a
$47,000 budget increase for the Sports
Complex toilet, concession and locker
addition.
Sponsors of the request, Miles Tom
mmeraasen, Vice Chancellor for Business
and Finance, and Bob Devaney, Athletic
Director, recommend that the increase
be granted because of a change in the
foundation for the structure.
Also, confusion in the contract of the
Curtis Animal Holding Facility is resulting
in a $17,800 budget increase request.
The original specifications submitted
by Curtis described the space as either
"inside" or "outside."
The Physical Plant interpreted the term
"outside" space to be areas actually out
side of the building.
In veterinary technology jargon, "out
side" space is really inside the building,
but refers to outside the animal holding
rooms.
Tommeraasen and Martin Massengale,
Vice Chancellor for the Institute of Agri
culture and Natural Resources, sponsored
the recommendation which stresses that
the university should comply with federal
and state animal handling laws.
This would call for a higher than average
cost per square foot for construction.
The meeting is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.
Friday at Regents Hall.
