Relays has little effect on local businesses
By BRAD STERTZ Sports Writer
Take the Kansas Relays 'away from the University of Kansas and Lawrence area businesses might be too expensive, but none too extraordinary.
Managers and owners in businesses ranging from motels to restaurants to bookstores have all said that they expected only moderate increases in business because of the Relavs.
THE BULK of the increases will come from the athletes of the schools competing in the Relays, than from spectators of the events.
"The increased business that we expect will be nothing like the increased sales we have from football teams, and more importantly of the Jayhawk Bookstore, said. "When you talk about the Relays, you talk about 4,000 to 5,000 fans. Most of what we get will be from the Relays, so the Jayhawk items to take back home."
Nancy Balough, manager of the Virginia Inn Best Western motel said that her motel had been filled, as usual, far in advance. However, the reservations consisted mostly of track teams that had made their reservations when they checked out last year.
"FOR THE MOST part, our reservations this year are from the track teams that do business with us year in and year out," Balouch said.
Sales at the KU Bookstore during the Relays have varied from year to year.
"It is very hard to say how we will do this year, because sales vary from one year to the next." Michael Reid, assistant manager of the KU store in the city, said regular hours and staff. We really do not expect any huge rushes in sales.
"WHAT HURTS the sales potential with the Relays is that people attend events all over the campus and down on the track. Rarely do the spectators come up to watch a game until time beforehand, the football team."
"A lot depends on things like the weather and the attendance at the Relays," Muggy said. "But what is the worst is that often the sales depend upon how much free time the athletes have away from the track.
Both Muggy and Reid said that the majority of the increased sales they would experience would come from athletes and not spectators.
MANAGERS OF THE Cornucopia Restaurant said that for the weekend of the Relys the mode of obligation would be business as usual.
"We usually get good business," an assistant manager of the restaurant said. "We will have the most shifts that we can on, but it is hard to say what a busy weekend. Still, though, we are expecting some extra."
Student officials, spectators add to Relays
Whether an participant, spectators or are an independent part of the RELAYs.
Students at the University of Kansas traditionally play an important role in the Kansas Relays.
By DAN BOWERS
"We couldn't have the kind of meet we have without the students." Kansas coach Bob Timmons said. "They are what help make this meet what it is."
At the 86th running of the relays this month, that student support will be evident.

Every year, over 260 students, the majority from residence halls, scholarship halls, fraternities and sororites, volunteer to assist the Kansas Relays Committee and other officials in helping run the meet.
In exchange for a Kansas Relays T-shirt (this year's version is red) the volunteers assist by working with an event. Their chores may include flashing high jump, long jump or pole vault marks on an indicator board for the spectators to see, setting up hurdles prior to a race or running results from the finish line up a seemingly infinite amount of steps to the press box.
Ann Frane, a member of the Kansas Relays Student Committee, said there were again over 250 student working at the races. The number of people coming from organized livestock grounds.
"The student officials are a great asset to the meet," she said. "They help us out a lot in ensuring that the meet is run well.
"We probably have more student
Timmons said, however, that he did not encourage negative support directed toward rival teams.
"The more vocal the crowd is, the more audible its support, the better the athlete is able to perform," he said. "And in return, the higher they perform, the more appreciation the audience can have for the athlete."
"At the same time, they have a lot of fun, and have the opportunity to work close to a lot of the country's finest athletes."
A less visible but more vocal group of
participation than any other meet in the country," Timmons said, "and we appreciate that."
Ryun, Santee, Cunningham to run lap together
Former KU milers Glenn Cunningham, Wes Santee and Jim Ryan will lead the opening ceremonies of tomorrow's Relays. The complete schedule is:

"Negative support to an opponent doesn't help anyone's performance," the spectators should show appreciation for the goalkeeper whether it is a Kansas athlete or not."

students attending the Relays are the spectators, and Timmons said their role in the Relay was also a vital one.
