At Kansas University the Kansas Union swapped out pinball for video games to raise money for the student union's operating costs and fees. Executives say a 50 50 profit split with the vendor could reduce reliance on student fees, with early weeks showing $500 to $600 weekly intake from video machines.

Local Kansas lawmakers clear 1982 projects boost
The 1982 Kansas Legislature finished amid funding moves for Haworth Hall expansion at Kansas University, a new Douglas County judge and court reporter, and a turnpike interchange financing idea near Lecompton. They also sought to retain Douglas County in the 3rd District, a plan vetoed by Gov. Carlin and now tied to a federal court panel.
