Student ticket prices for football and basketball games could as much as triple next year, recommendations made by the KU athletic Corporation board ticket committees are solid.
The KUAC board will meet at 3:30 p.m. in the Satellite Union to consider the recommendations. It also will consider proposals to move a KU-MU football game to Arrowhead and sell beer in Memorial Stadium and will decide whether KU women's teams will join the NCAA.
THE RECOMMENDATIONS of the ticket committee would allow the board to set policy regarding pricing and let the athletic department work out specific costs.
The committee also has proposed a policy for the board to adopt requiring students to pay half the public price for both football and basketball tickets.
Leben said the proposed pricing policy was unjustified and drastic. Based on this year's public prices, $19 student tickets would cost $31 for a seven-game football season and $15 student tickets would cost $38.50 for a 14-game basketball season.
He said that he had met with athletic officials and student board members and that a compromise could be worked out before the board met this afternoon.
BASED ON NEXT year's prices, which have not been set officially, student tickets could cost $36 for football and $42 for basketball, Leben said.
The ticket policy committee, headed by David
pion, vice chancellor for student affairs, will

1 that he met with Bob Marcum, tor, yesterday, and that the two had
agreed to recommend to the committee at the 2:30 meeting that student football tickets be based on one-third the public cost rather than one-half.
He also said he believed some of the information used to back up the committee's recommendation was "unintentionally" misleading.
"But phasing it in doesn't change the problem," he said. "It 'it only lengthens the pain. Let's not accept something we don't think is fair. We are not going to take effect for two or three years."
"That would mean tickets would cost about $12. Lessen them. I don't think that's out of line with it."
Leben said the information did not include student contributions to women's athletics and distorted declining percentages of student contributions to the total athletic department budget.
"When you talk about increases, students have to bear their fair share of the load," he said. "But a major reason that student income has declined is that we've paid off our debt that we agreed to finance (the east stadium addition of a 7,000-seat student section). Lo and behold, revenues did decrease, but they were supposed to."
consulting a plan as the recommendations would be thoroughly discussed at both meetings today before any decision was made.
If adopted, the policy could be put into effect gradually over the next few years, Leben said.
He also said private contributions had increased to more than $1 million a year.
KU STUDENT FUNDING for athletics is comparable to other schools in the Big Eight
Louis said.
"The athletic department is in a difficult financial situation," he said. "It is not a desperate situation, but it is serious."
Significant increases in funding of women's athletics have to be made, he said. Also, KU's football and basketball recruiting budgets are second to lowest in the Big Eight, and the capital improvements budget is the lowest in the Big Eight.

Terri Fry, Kansan business manager, defended the fee increase before the Senate.
Three student senators voiced opposition to the Kansan's request. The Kansan receives $73,280 and the Kansan its total allocation to be paid to $109,800. The Kansan now receives $2 from the activity fee.
"We've done things in an effort to keep even with rising costs," Fry said, "but if we raise our rates to our advertisers any more, we'll no longer be competitive."
Fry also answered questions from Steve McMurry, Transportation Board chairman, concerning the Kansan's cash carry-forward account.
"The Kansan is a half-a-million-dollar business," Fry said. "Our costs vary from month to month. Cash carry-forward is to maintain our costs."
