University Rests Budget Case The University has rested its case for more money from the state legislature. President Eric A. Walker's testimony before the Senate Budget Committee Wednesday seems to have been well re ceived although none of the committee members would com- mit themselves on the Univer sity's request for additional money.

He also said that he hadn't recalled any senator sug gesting that the way to solve the University's problems would be to raise fees. He is not a mem ber of the committee. Sen. George B. Stevenson (fl.-Clinton), chairman of the budget committee, questioned the University's proposed ex pansion plans and said the plans pose a problen. in ap praising the University's needs. He did not think there was any "fat" in the University's pro posed budget. "It's just a matter of how far we can go," Stevenson told a newsman Wednesday night. Yes terday he refused to expand on these remarks. Hays said the "time may come soon" for him to do something about the University's appropri ation request. The University re quested $43 9 million from the Stale Assembly but Gov. David L. Lawrence cut" the request to $34 2 million in his budget mes sage. Walker in his testimony said the University needs $8.3 mil lion to make adjustments in faculty and staff salaries and in auxiliary benefits. He pre sented charts comparing the University's salaries with those being paid by Cornell, Purdue. Michigan State, Ohio State, ri linois, Maryland and Wiscon sin_ He also said that it would take $4.3 million alone for new faculty and staff members, maintenance of new buildings and new re search programs during the next two years. Walker told the com mittee that the University plans to enroll an additional 5600 students during the next bien nium, noting that during the pres ent biennium resident enroll ment increased 3834 .students. Walker pointed to rising costs of materials and supplies adding $1.3 million to the 'University's maintenance expenses Fraternity Debtors-- (Continued from page one) gain more detailed information about the prevalence of the problem.
