State May Fund Women's Sports

The 1974-75 University of Kansas Women's Intercollegiate Sports program could receive as much as $85,575 if the recommendation made Saturday at a meeting of the Board of Regents is approved and passed by the legislature.
The recommendation included all six schools in the state higher education system and would allocate $85,757 to KU and $63,094 to the lesser amount to the four smaller schools.
In November 1972, the women athletic directors from the six schools met to discuss the intercollegiate sports program, according to Sharon Drydale, KU women's athletic director and advisor of the women's sports program.
DRYSALE SAID that the group also discussed its philosophies to decide if there would be a discussion of this issue.
programs. She also said the group wanted to get an idea of the kinds of programs offered in the state and how they fitted the needs of the students.
"We wanted to see if we could better arrive at a basic composite program," she said. "There were differences among us. We were all organized a bit differently and, as I was growing up, we were more different. But, at the same time, we were all interested in the same program."
Other meetings were also held. Drysdale served as chairman of the Committee to Investigate the Status of Women's Intercollegiate Sports at KU. This committee was organized by Chancellor Nichols to collect background information and to explore the place of the women's sports program at KU.
"WE DISCUSSED where on campus we could best implement the program and the methods used."
A yearly allocation by the Student Senate has been the group's only source of funding at KU since its beginning. The amount this year was $9,367. This figure was intended to cover all operational expenses for eight sports offered by the program.
entire program," Drydsale said. "We also to arrive at policy statements we could
However, Drysdale said, the term operational expenses" did not seem acquainted.
"IT SOMEHOW seems to imply what we need to operate and that is just not the case," she said. "It does not provide enough money for any of the staple things. The physical education department provides many of our services such as the larger museum, secretarial help, storage, supervision and maintenance, besides our staff."
Library Workers Await Emplove Board's Decision
University of Kansas library workers are awaiting a decision from the Kansas Public Employee Relations Board on whether they will be able to organize as a library unit within the Communication Workers of America.
Library employees Sandy Wilson and Nita Betty represent library workers before the five-member Public Employee Relations Board Thursday in Topeka. They requested permission to join the CWA as a library unit.
Charles Oldfather, University attorney, said earlier this week that the question in this case was the size of the unit. He said it was too small and the University would prefer a collective effort from all clerical workers on campus.
The Kansas Department of Administration, which controls civil service workers, wants all the clerical workers from across the state to belong to one union.
Under the state's "master plan," workers who type for the highway department, file for the county and belong to one union, Wilson said. Clerical workers have a "community of interest," the state claims. The state philosophy is to keep a large number of units than with a large number.
"We don't feel that their 'master plan' is workable," Wilson said. " Their plan defeats the whole point of unionizing," Library workers do not want to force unionization on the other clerical workers in the university, Wilson said.
"We are ahead of the pack because we're so tightly packed together." Wilson said. "We work together all the time, so we are ready to face challenges across campus just aren't ready."
"It's a small thing, but, for instance, go into any campus office and they are using electric typewriters. But there are none in the dark ages," she said.
Library workers would like a larger voice in administrative decision making. At present, they have no way of influencing what part of the total budget will be allotted for salaries, or influencing any other decisions.
If the proposal for state funding is passed, there is always a possibility that the Student Senate would discontinue its allocation to the group.
"All were asking for is the chance to
say I had audited 'No one is near the
bargaining point.'"
If their request is denied, the workers can still join a union of all the clerical workers across the state. But Wilson said that that would be like no union at all.
"That will just have to be a future consideration," Drysdale said. "With state and federal funding subject to cuts at almost any time, we would hope that the doors would always remain open, because we would be able to a stable framework for years to come. How important is it to dear to the student senators that we are making every effort to sustain ourselves."
THE PROPOSAL would include the following sports at KU: volleyball, basketball, softball, track and field, gymnastics, swimming, field hockey and soccer, said that it was very difficult to say which of the sports required the most money.
"It depends on whether they enter regional, state or national competition, the size of the team and where the particular market is," he said. "It's better the team, the more expensive it is."
MARLENE MAWSON, also a member of the committee, said there was a need for intercollegiate sports experience within the physical education department in order to properly prepare the students professionally;
"Many employers will ask how much intercollegiate experience you have had before considering you for a coaching position," she said. "This is where we see the need for the program in terms of educational value and this is why we feel it should be kept in an academic atmosphere."
Appearing Friday Night
Rep. Larry Winn, R-Kan., told the Lawrence Kiwanis Club that in the wake of the Watergate investigation he expected H.R. Halideman, White House chief of staff, to step in as President Nikon's domestic adviser, to leave or resign in the next week or 10 days.

Winn also said he expected Secretary of State William Rogers to become Nixon's major adviser and Henry Kissinger to become secretary of state.
WANN ANSWERED this question for the Kiwanis Club by quoting a rumor he said had occurred.
"I just think it makes sense," Winn said. As to the Watergate affair, which has reopened, he says the Committee to Reeled the President, Winn said that the most common question he had been asked was, "Why would the president want to bug Democrat headquarters?"
According to the rumor, when Senators Hubert Humphrey, Edmund Muskie and George McGovern were all in contention for the Democratic nomination, the financ-
tery party was allegedly considering accepting bids from either Cuba or the Soviet Union.
Winn declined to comment on the validity of the rumor but he said it could be a possible reason for the political espionage activities.
Winn did say, however, that he did not believe that President Nixon had any prior knowledge of the war.

Winn Says Nixon Aides To Go Soon
ADDRESSING HIMSELF to the status of the economy, Winn said the spending priorities of the American public were out of hand. He said that Nixon's voluntary Phase II was a success and that he ever-present American demand for more and more possessions and food.

Winn called controls dangerous and said they were having a cosmetic effect on the economy, and were not tackling the real problem of government overspending.
Winn also predicted that Americans would never live in an uncontrolled economy because of their demands upon that economy. However, Winn admitted to be the only workable temporary solution to current economic problems.
Winn said that it might take a depression to snap the American people into choosing priorities when spending money.
