Batt wages raised
Nash says yes; Hegi no
With an abstention from Student
Body President Steve Eberhard,
the Student Publications Board ap
proved 4-3 Tuesday, a salary in
crease for The Battalion staff.
Editorial wages will be budgeted
at $185 per issue, up from a previous
$108 per issue.
“I thought there were good points
on both sides,” said Eberhard, exp
laining his abstention. “I thought
there should be some increase. ” But
Eberhard said he did not feel qual
ified to name a specific (lower) fig
ure and said he did not want to delay
the request another week.
The request was originally made
two weeks ago, but was delayed be
cause the board wanted more in
formation on the effects of and the
reasons for the raise.
“I have a romantic notion that
student newspapers are different
from professional newspapers.
There is no compelling reason to
compete with commercial busines
ses, whether we have the money or
not,” said Eberhard. He later exp
lained, “To put The Battalion on a
competitive basis is to deny the
educational experience accrued by
the staff.”
Battalion editor Greg Moses ar
gued that the increases would make
The Battalion more competitive
with other communications jobs on
campus and would help keep the
talented journalists on the staff. He
said many of the talented staff
members were going to jobs in dis
count stores and hamburger places
because of financial reasons.
“We are not asking for profes
sional wages,” said Moses. “We are
asking for enough money to keep
students on a subsistence level
while they are in school and working
on The Battalion.”
“The journalists earn it,” said fa
culty member William C. Harrison
of the journalism department.
“They are doing a good job. ” Harri
son voted for the increase. “If I were
a student senator, I would think of
cutting back this request severely, ”
said faculty member Tom Adair of
physics. “I don’t think that just be
cause The Battalion has a windfall
(in advertising), that the staff should
get a raise. ” Adair voted against the
raise. Also voting against the in
crease were: Dr. Robert Albanese,
management department; and Don
Hegi, student. Voting in favor of the
increase were John Nash, student;
Jim Lindsey, director of University
News Service and chairman of the
Student Publications Board; and
Harrison E. Hierth, head of the En
glish department.
In other action the board:
• Agreed to set the editor’s salary at
$225 for the remainder of the spring
semester. Editor’s salary was set at
$225 last spring, also, but Moses
said he had to cut the top salaries to
allow for a larger staff. “I think it is
commendable that the editor takes a
cut in salary but this does not seem
to be an orderly procedure,” said
Hierth, head of the English de
partment.
De
for next year’s
up $150 from the
• Set the salary
editor at $300,
present salary and up $75 from the
newly approved salary.
“This salary will get the editor we
want,” said Adair. “I want the best
man for the job even if we have to go
to the Pictorial Press ... or the
Eagle. It’s an important job and I
want to pay him what he’s worth."
