Wichita State fouls out on calls
By United Press International
WICHTA—Athletes at Wichita State University, already the subject of an NCAA investigation, allegedly charged more than $2,000 in long-distance telephone calls to the school's athletic association in recent years.
The Wichita Eagle-Beacon reported yesterday that among the phone calls, more than $1,700 in calls were billed to basketball office telephones in fiscal 1980 during an apparent breakdown in internal controls.
Wichita State Athletic Director Ted Bredehoff said one employee of the school's athletic association had been accused of using with lax controls of unauthorized biking.
Cliff Levinson, a sophomore starter on the Shocker basketball team, said he had repaid about $1,000 in phone calls
but that university officials had been unable to find $400 of that amount.
Levington said he made 200 calls as a freshman to his friends and mother in California, and agreed to repay the money when informed of school policy.
THE ATHELITIC association has not been reimbursed for $30 in calls by a former basketball star, Lynbert player, Billy Wilson over $255.
Head coaches are required to notify the athletic association of unauthorized calls, but Bredehoft said unauthorized calls often were not checked for three months because of delays in receiving phone bills.
National Collegiate Athletic Association rules forbid athletics to bill calls to a school without an athletic association's knowledge or approval. Wichita State officials said the athletic association never approved the calls
Hashinger band wins contest
and billed the athletes as soon as calls were found.
The NCAA last month began a preliminary inquiry into allegations that Wichita State basketball players got gifts from Shocker coaches and fans.
Waiting for the Coup, a band made up of residents of Hashinger Hall, won the competition. It has also won "Battle of the Bands" contexts last night at the Lawrence Opera House.
Original Singer, a Kansas City band,
finished in second place with two votes.
Jimmy Lee and Rock-n-Roll Souglers,
the Gear and Lawrence's Three Kitchen
Chairs and Table, which included
members of local bands the Clean and
Get Smart, each received one vote.
Wichita State was the hardest hit last month in a series of Kansas City Times articles on alleged athletic violations at Wichita State University and the University of Kansas.
THE TIMES REPORTED that coaches financed everything from clothes to one player's former girlfriend's abortion. This week's cover story asks us what that the "wheatshoppers lead the nation in sham as well as slam."
The five-piece band combined originals with covers of songs by the Rumones, Devo and the Kinks and was one of the top 10 bands, each playing a half-hour long set.
The six bands were chosen to participate by KJKH staff members from audition tapes submitted by 11 bands. They also participated in five plays played publicly in Lawrence before.
Waiting for the Coup received three votes from the eight-judge panel. The
Despite the charges in those articles and the ongoing NCAA inquiry, the Wichita State basketball team has continued to win, often being ranked in the nation's top 20. The team won theiley championship with a 12-15 record.
This weekend the team plays for an NCAA playoff berth in the conference's post-season tournament.
The Times' charges did not include any reports of telephone abuse. But now all three major universities in Kansas have been accused of such abuse.
The Times said that K-State track athletes misused an athletic department telephone credit card. The Kansan said that KU basketball players misused an assistant coach's telephone credit card.

Diet is important for good health
You are what you eat, the saying goes and according to the dietician at Watkins Memorial Hospital. KU students should eat more wisely.
By ALVIN A. REID Staff Reporter
The dietician, Mang Pumgran,
said that being overweight was a
health hazard often overlooked on
college campuses.
overweight are No. 1 problems on college campuses, but they don't receive enough concern because the complications that go with them haven't arisen yet." Mangrum said. "Being overweight can cause health problems and need to back problems, heart attacks or stroke."
Mangrum, who was a staff dietician at the National Institute of
Health in Bethesda, Maryland,
before coming to KU last month,
said she had noticed an upswain
in concern about weight problems.
"Weight, nutrition and health are becoming popular subjects with people today," she said. "This attitude is good because it signals that more people are concerned about their weight."
Mangrum said it was essential for a student to see a doctor before seeking dietary help.
"While losing weight should not be considered dangerous, all students interested in dieting should have a doctor's permission," she said. "Once they receive a clean bill of credit, they can proceed with the program."
Mangrum said she sometimes helped students needing special diets, such as diabetics, but she
usually helped students determine daily caloric requirements.
She said a weight-loss diet could be incorporated into a residence hall menu for students who lived on campus.
Mangrum said more females sought dietary help than males, but only a few more.
"More women are participating in physical activities such as aerobics, and more men are concerned about their waistlines."
"Women, as a general rule, are more concerned about weight reduction than men and men generally get more exercise, but this situation is changing quickly;" she said.
All dietary services are covered by the student health fee. The dietary offices are located on the campus of Watkins Memorial Hospital.
Shuttle bus breakdown irks students
Jayhawk West Apartment residents learned this week that the four-mile trip to campus could be expensive without a service provided by the apartments.
The bus broke down Monday, leaving residents without transportation to school. The bus is expected to be fixed by next week.
"They haven't rented another bus and don't intend to," Bob Scott,
"We rented here because of the shuttle bus to campus, but it's terrible to advertise that if it's not true."
Lawrence senior, said. "People have been taking taxis to campus at $4 to $5 a shot. My wife and I have had to pay $10 to 6 a day for parking meters."
Apartment manager Rita Knollman said that the bus needed a new engine and probably would not be fixed until next week. Repairs will cost more than $1,000.
"I can understand they're having problems getting back and forth to school, but we're doing everything humanly possible," she said. "We've spent a lot of time and a lot of money on that bus."
In the meantime, residents will have to continue to provide their own transportation.
"It is kind of annoying that it's broken," Jim Vicew, Westchester, Ill., junior, said. "But I just take my own car to school."
"WHY DO THE HEATHEN RAGE?"
Pasima 2:1 and Acts 4:25
"WHY DO THE HEATHER RAGE" Why? what is the cause? It must be to rid of the Government of God, His King, His Moral Law, His Ten Commandments: "To break the bands, cast away the coats" of restraint the Almighy has thrown on our paths to hold us back from damming ourselves, children and posturity in time and eternity!
The writer has been asked more than once the purpose of these articles. Thought it had been made plain, as a personal Christian witness. The above Scriptures give the basis and inspiration for these articles.
WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE RAGE OF THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE GOD OF THE BIBLE? "HE THAT SITTETH IN THE HEAVENS SHALL LAUGH. THE LORD SHALL HAVE THEM IN DERSION; WHEN SHALL HE SPEAK UNTO THEM IN HIS WRATH; AND WHEN THEM IN THE SORE DISCREPLE." *Psalm 2:4.5*
Today we are asking: Why the rise in Communism? Why the race situation? Why the labor troubles? Why the youth rebellion? Why the horrible breakdown in the family and the economy? Why the antagonism in anarchy just about all over the world? All the answers are in the above Scriptures and they come from God Almighty. You may not find them and the way out on account of unbelief.
A heathen is one who does not believe in the God of the Bible, and so he rages against Him. His Anointed, His Moral Law and Ten Commandments, with the result of his anger leading to a great scorpion that suffresse! His Word reveals that when God's House is exalted above all else in the earth and the nations flow up to it to be taught God's ways and walk in His paths. He will give peace on the earth, and man will live happily and peacefully. A heathen is individual, or nation, by repentance and submission to Christ, receiving Him as our sacrifice and atonement for sin, and being given a new heart where we are written in Christ's name.
But we are 'sorter' refined heathen, devoted friends of science and its study, but not capable or deriving from the study of Scripture nourishment for heart and mind. "It is with the heart, not the heart, that man doth his highest God," he writes. "Christianity offering man a saviour that saves him" "in his sin" rather than "from his sin." He is not the Christ of the Scriptures; but of man, a non-virgin non-miracle worker, non-resurrested, non-God: IN FACT it IS SATAN IMMELF TRANSFORMEIED INTO AN ALIES OF LIGHT" titulam it if choose, and in and in the angles of etern!
