potential revenue-producing sport than any other factors.
"I don't care who they are, no human being can cut out emotions that go with being a coach," she said. "It is necessary that the athletic director should support the overall system and not single out an individual team."
THERE IS A DEFINITE conflict of interest in being both an athletic director and a coach, Levinson said.
as basketball coach, she said, Washington must devote her time to basketball but, as athletic director, Washington is responsible for all 10 sports and all women athletes.
Tracy Spellman, adviser to the Council of Twyce Athletes, said she thought Washington perceived no conflict of interest in her dual role, but that many people did not.
"As long as that perception continues, the problems will continue," she said.
A legitimate complaint, as Spellman sees it, could be made about the apparent conflict Washington could have by approving her own budget for the basketball team.
But Spellman said she was pleased to see that Washington is giving more budget considerations to the Women's Athletic Advisory Board to minimize its impact on women's department in the areas of salaries, personnel, budgets and other policies.
WASHINGTON SAID she did not think she had a conflict of interest in her dual role because basketball would be promoted as the No.1 sport regardless of her position.
the one who will show, she said, that athletic directors have been involved with a sport, and have had success.
Steve Leben, former student body president, said it was not uncommon at other schools to ask students to go out. But, he said that although it had been handled well at other schools, the
Washington said, "I'd like to feel that I have been effective both as a coach and as an athletic director. I don't feel the program has been hurt by the combination."
situation probably could be handled better at KU.
She said that the situation did not always need to remain the way it was but that there were other ways to do it.
MEANWHILE, COACHES LIKE SNOW are waiting on edge to see how the department will decide to allocate its funds for next year.
And this year's decisions on how much to allocate to which teams may prove to be successful.
The Student Senate voted last year to eliminate women's athletics from its budget.
To offset the decision of the Student Senate, the University requested an increase of $15.11 more than last year's state budget, with will receive only slightly more than $23,000.
Leben said he thought the Student program did not need to fund the program was right.
"Our decision was based on the philosophy that it is the state's responsibility for its athletics," he said, and regret the legacy feature retired to along with our decision.
WITH NO APPEARNT HOOF of Student Senate funds for next year, Hogan said the administration had made a commitment to reduce budget equal to this year's total $211,951.
In fiscal year 1978, women's athletics received $157,546 from the state and $44,405 from the Student Senate, which means the administration would have to contribute $33,405 to meet fiscal year 1978 and 1979 budgets.
Whatever the administration decides to do, Snow said, "It won't be negative. It's positive."

REFERencing TO THE Palestinian people, Bear said, "I pray for my brothers and sisters across the water, that they are not used as the Indian people have been."
After Bear's comments, about 20 Indians performed a drum-bearing ceremony and sang on stage. Members of the audience of the performance raised elated fists along with the Indians.
After the ceremony, some members of the audience "screamed," "The people united will be defeated."
the moderator, Fawwaz Ulaby, professor of electrical engineering, said, "Long live the struggle of the Indian people, the resistance of all and the oppressed people of the world."
As Turki and Bear speak, about 30 police officers from the University of Kansas Police department stood at the doors, in the balconies, in the stairwells and outside the

"We learned a few things from Rabin's speech that we're applying now."
Yitzak Rabin, former prime minister of Israel, spoke in Hoch Auditorium April 6 and was interrupted more than 26 times by protesters.
The only antagonism, however, was from a member of the audience who accused Turku of neglecting to mention facts about the war that supported the Israeli military action.
The man asked Turki whether the PLO would agree to co-examine with Israel.
"We are not willing to co-exist with
Zealousmen are willing to co-exist with
the people we have in charge."
TURKHAD SAID earlier, "Of course, we are out to destroy Israel, to dismantle Zionism, to destroy this movement that has exiled us and now seeks to destroy us.
"Yes, we are violent," Turki said. "We have grown up with violence like we have grown up with our skins. . . Violence inflicted upon us by Israelis."
"What is it to see someone from Miami Beach who happens to be Jewish go and live in your country where you can't return?" he said. "This is violence."
"I don't think you in Kansas would be very happy if the Armenians came over and kicked you out because the Armenians needed a homeland." Turki said. "No
matter how much you sympathize with the Armenian cause."
Turki said that he preferred to see a peaceful reunification of Palestine and that the establishment of a Palestinian state on the West Bank would be a good first step.
TURKI PREDICTED that the collapse of Israel would come from within. He said that the United States would stop aiding Israel when Americans found their economic interests in the Middle East threatened by the Arab nations.
"They have nailed us, dropped concussion bombs on us and expelled one and a half million of us from our homeland," we heard. "They have not destroyed us. We have survived."
not represent the Palestinian people were not true.
"the PLO is the movement, the vision, the organic outgrowth of all the consciousness of the Palestinian people," Turki said.
"They are the slave masters and we are the slaves," he said. "When the slave commits violence to break his chains, it is violated by the violence inflicted by the slave master."
Turki said allegations that the PLO did
