KU must disprove athletic allegations
Acting Chancellor Del Shankel said he could not comment on the Big Eight policy cited by Gaunt until he had received official notification that the conference that such a choice must be made.
"What we do in situations like this is make sure any and all allegations are cleared," Gaunt said. "It is up to the institution to cooperate with us."
"Without all allegations be creamed, the chief executive could not do that," Gautt said. It is not able to clear itself, it would certainly be convicted of terms of ethical conduct, to alert the conference."
Further investigation would be conducted by the Big Eight governing body of member athletic directors and faculty advisers if the University could not clear itself, Gauld said.
THE NEWSPAPER also reported that academic standards were easily manipulated by the press.
The Kansas City Times alleged last week that KU had violated several NCAA rules, including the promising of employment to a recruit, entrusting transportation for a basketball player's mother.
The University of Kansas has been told it must present evidence that it did not violate National Collegiate Athletic Association guidelines or face litigation from the Big Eight Conference or the NCAA.
GAUTT SAID that the chancellor of each NCAA institution was required to sign a compliance form each year stating that the university was conforming to NCAA regulations.

"We have said that we would cooperate fully with the NCAA or Bie Iright." Shankel said.
GAUTT SAID he hoped the University would either alert the Big Eight that the allegations could not be substantiated or invite the conference to help them clear the charges.
Bob Marcum, KU athletic director, said the
shuttle department should conduct its own
airline services.
HARSHMAN SAID no such stories about KU had been brought to his attention. Earlier, he had said that Wichita State University, another university, in Times, was reputed to be "breaking all the rules."
THE ALLEGATIONS reported by the Times did not appear to surprise people involved with cost-cutting measures.
"I've been out of town and haven't had time to start looking into it yet, but we certainly will soon," Marcum said.
"The public probably wouldn't know about it until the NCAA had completed the investigation and announced its findings," he said. "Charges or recommendations of investigations must come from a specific institution or conference or the school itself."
"Our organization has no power to indict schools," he said. "But we recognize the situation, then you hear the same stories in front of you. You go on and over again, some of them are bound to be true."
"If they ask us to respond, we will. However, that will be up to them."
Mary Harshman, president of the National Association of Basketball Coaches and University of Washington coach, said that various athletic violations were occurring at universities across the country and had been for years.
He would not speculate on whether the association would suggest that KU be investigated, but said the association would try to document any members heard about.
The coaches association will voice any concerns or ideas about problems to the NCAA at the coaches' convention in March and during the season when it meets with the NCAA, Harshman said.
"Athletes, coaches, even officials have been caught manipulating Harman. Hansman said, "It was enough to do illegitimate."
"If I knew Washington was going to in-
stitute me at the University, I wouldn't be able to release it."

The lawmaker, Rep. Timothy O'Sullivan, D-Hutchinson, introduced a bill this week to make those motorcyclists pay for more expensive no-turn insurance if they choose not to wear helmets.
A Hutchinson lawmaker wants to make motorcyclists 18 and older pay for the privilege of not wearing a helmet.

Cyclists may pay the price for traveling without helmets
"I voted against the amendment making the law mandatory last year," he said yesterday. "But since then I've seen how many fatalities we've had in my district around Hutchinson."
O'Sullivan's bill amends a law passed last year
that requires requiring helmets for motorcyle
18 and your teen.
O'Sullivan said a recent KU study showed that the average health care cost for a person injured while not wearing a helmet was $18,000. The average person injured while wearing a helmet was $6,000.
He said that since most states had repealed helmet laws, motorcycle fatalities had increased.
Branson added that the bill would cut down on health care costs.
If a motorcyclist does not have the insurance
"It's a way of reducing serious injuries," Branson said of the bill. "If we can use some incentive to make them wear helmets, I certainly will favor it."
The bill, which will be heard before the mouse Insurance Committee next week, was opposed by a group of voters.
Kandas repealed its helmet law for all motorcyclists three years ago. Currently, only 19 states have helmet laws, O'Sullivan said.

One of the co-sponsors was State Rep. Jessie Branson, D-Lawrence.

federal rules, and I agree with Reagan that it is a needed more, but also an apparent that issued in all regulators the latter.
DOYEN, HOWEVER, added that while the states would have more control over the funds, there would probably be fewer funds because of the planned tax cuts.
"One of the main things they told us," Doyen said, "was that they wanted more light across their buildings almost all the time."
"I don't think there will be any problems with the reductions in Kansas," he said. "I think the reductions in Kentucky."
DOYEN SAID the legislators pledged their support for Reagan's plans over the weekend but they asked him to pursue the budgetary cuts before the tax cuts.
Reagan also called for the cooperation of the legislators to make tough adjustments in the legislation.
"The top group of the administration said they were still fine tuning their plans," Doyen said. "They just wanted to fill us in and get our support before they introduced anything."
Doyen said that at the meetings the legislators talked with Reagan, Vice President George Bush, Secretary of Transportation Drew Lewis and several special assistants to the president.
HE ALSO SAID Kansas benefitted from his
father's Dear wife, Elizabeth, on the domestic affairs she
spread.
"It is fortunate for Kansas to have someone inside the administration," Doyen said. "Almost every time we have needed something she has been able to come through."
