KU basketball fans were ready for Missouri's Steve Stipanovich last night in Allen Field House. Stipanovich told police last month that he had been shot by an intruder, then confessed that he had shot himself. Stipanovich contributed 12 points in Missouri's 63-55 loss to the Jayhawks.
Sell-out crowd heckles Mizzou's Stipanovich

The sell-out crowd at Allen Field House last night came armed and prepared to humiliate
The fars left with pride from a 63-55 KU victory and Stipawacow left with his character, if not with the fars.
Stepnopovic, 9-foot-11 sophomore center for the Missouri Tigers, made national headlines when he told police last month that he had been shot by an unknown intruder in his Columbia, Mo. apartment. He later confessed he had shot himself.
KU fans, perhaps remembering past performances of the Antlers, a group of Missouri students who heckle opposing teams, began fighting for control in St. Joseph's Siwanville when the Tigers came to town.
Lawrence stores sold all their cap guns. Alocal bar had Stipainvacum t-Shirts printed and sold. Shirts were painted with the obvious paint. He shot S.S.'s and "Shoot Erm Down. Hawks."
The excitement and roar of the crowd before the game could have registered on the Richter Scale. When MU began warming up during the game, the dogs booed were all running. A showdown was to come.
WHEN THE SMOKE cleared, the real shoot-out took place on the court, where it belonged. KU beat the Tigers in a typical archrival contest.
1996 because it was Kansas-Missouri. Typical because both teams were undefeated in conference play before last night. And typical because of the same game, which brings out the best in any crowd.
KU fans have not developed the knack of heckling to the extent that the Antlers have. The cheers were unorganized and the signs were, at least, nondriven. Event the cap guns didn't infiltrate in museums.
The Antiers, however, began "professional heckling" five years ago, and have made it an art of sorts. Three years ago, they selected the players, and then sent them to a team, of which several players were Jawhaws.
Two years ago, they initiated a "Down with Ted" rally, designed to promote the firing of Head Coach Ted Owens. Last year, they changed their strategy and campaigned against the firing of Owens, who the Antlers claim "is Missouri's sixth man".
THE ANTILERS are now 23 strong, 23 humans, that is, and one stuffed deer head, complete with antlers, named Curtis for Curtis Redding, a former football player who was sent to St. John's University's basketball team.
"Everybody loves to kue HU." George Stockell, Missouri veterinary student and heat helmettaker, said of his experience.
Stecklin said the Antlers became organized four years ago, when they chose the name and had T-shirts made. The rest is history, he said.

State representative blasts Forer, Dillingham expedition
By BRAD STERTZ Staff Reporter
When State Rep. Joseph J. Hoagland announced his Judiciary Committee's agenda yesterday, House members expected the ordeal to get, however, was markedly extraordinary.
institute or issuing this agenda, Hoagland, R-Overland Park, told the house that if Norman Forer and Clarence Dillingham were typical of his neighbors then that school was a "seeded of malcontents."
Members of the House applauded Hoagland's speech and some members gave it a standing ovation.
Equally shocked was a KU instructor in the School of Social Welfare, Bill Lockett. David A. Hardcastle, dean of the School of Social Welfare, refused comment. Foster took the slap in stride.
But the three members of the Lawrence House delegation neither clapped nor stood. They were
Hogaland said that since the hostage crisis had passed, he wanted to air pent-up feelings about the刀 KU officials reprimanded Forer and Dillingham after a trip to Iran in December 1979.
"Forer and Dillingham should not have come back from Iran and expected to find their jobs," Hoagland said from the floor of the House. "If those two faculty members typhoid the School of Medicine at the University of Kansas then I am not sure we need a school of Social Welfare."
STATE REP. BETTY Jo Charlton, D-Dawrence, said her first response to Hoagland's comments was outrage. She wanted to immediately argue with him on the floor but thought it would be better to confront him in private.
"If he goes so far as to introduce legislation he will hear from me," Charlton said. "I think he should have voiced his opinions privately with the agents rather than publicly on the house floor."
"It was heated when he said all of this and I thought he should have resigned because a public official has no business dictating who is not appropriate to him. University. It was most inappropriate of him."
Forer, associate professor of social welfare, led two delegations to Iran in an attempt to solve the hostage crisis. He said all he could do was laugh at Hoagland's comments.
"He is certainly not alone in saying what he did," Forer said. "But it shows that he has no knowledge about the subject and I haven't seen anything an interest to find a way out of the crisis."
Forer said that such feelings were what disrupted the climate that may have resolved the hostage crisis much earlier. Feelings such as Hoagland's, he said, were what kept a delegation from Iran, approved by the federal government, from coming to Lawrence last year to meet with Forer's Committee for American-Iranian Crisis Resolution.
"As a citizen, I feel cheated," Forer said. "I feel as though we deserve more intelligent people in our government."
AFTER HIS HOUSE speech, Hoagland said he was trying to make the point that Forer should have been fired from the University.
He said he did not know whether KU failed to fire Forer because it did not want to or it could not be because he was a tenured professor. He said KU officials told him they could not fire Forer because he was tenured.
When Forer and Dillingham, a former instructor in the School of Social Welfare, went to Iran in 1979, they were suspended without pay. They have filed suit against the University, Acting Chancellor Del Shankel and former Chancellor Archie R. Dykes for libel, invasion of privacy and denial of process in action taken against the two as a result of the trip.
"If a university cannot discipline employees who clearly abandon their responsibilities, then maybe the tenure rule needs to be changed." The university's executive committee have to realize is that tenure is a privilege.
"I am as much in favor of academic freedom as anyone, but I am not in favor of paying people more."
Emotional Carter greets ex-hostages
Hoagland said the faculty should also keep in mind that when they came to the defense of Forer, they jeopardized the opinion of the public.

WIESBADEN, West Germany—Former President Carter, his eyes filled with tears, embraced the 52 freed Americans one by one yesterday and told them their ordeal was a “despicable act of savagery” their country would never forget.
Carter, who flew to West Germany as President Reagan's special envoy to greet the returning hostages, let bitterness that he had held back for 14 months come out as he said the hostages had been treated "much worse than had been previously revealed."
The hostages, who gave the former president a welcome as exuberant as the one they had received upon arriving in Wiesbaden hours earlier, told their families by telephone of beatings and other abuses endured at the hands of their Iranian captors.
Summer up 444 days in three words, hostage
Air Force LT. Col. David Roeder. "It was毕"
Bellows.
IN TELEPHONE CALLS that carried the words "I love you," across the Atlantic hundreds of times, some of the hostages told their relatives of mock executions, months of solitary confinement, beatings and cruel deceptions persecuted by the Nazis. Was it told his mother had died when she had not?
Carter met the hostages at the Wiesbaden Military Hospital, where they arrived before dawn to a fluttering sea of yellow ribbons and swirling water. The appalliance of 2,000 servicemen and their families.
Earlier, the hostages landed at Rhein-Main Air Force Base after a 13-hour journey from Tehran with stops in Athens and Aligiers. An exuberant throng of servicemen, students and Wiesbaden residents transformed a small patch of Germany into what the $2 have in store for them back home.
"You can never imagine," said former hostage Kathryn Kroob, her voice breaking . . . "you can never imagine how much the letters you have in your heart mean." Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
The meeting with Carter was equally exciting. He thanked us for the support we had and shook the hand of every hostage. He thanked us for the support we had and shook the hand of every hostage.
AFTERWARD, IN A statement made before returning to his home in Plains, Ga., Carter described his encounter with the 50 men and two men his administration had worked so hard to free.
'My first act was to shake hands and embrace with deep, emotion every single liberated liberator I knew.
"I pointed out to them that since their capture by the Iranian terrorists and their being held in this despicable act of savagery, the American people's thoughts have gone out to them—that our nation has been united as perhaps never before in history."
Calling them America's "true heroes," Carter and the team are "adominant cabnicle circumstances that will never be forgotten."
But Carter said Iran also had "suffered severely" for its "criminal act," because it got back less than $3 billion of the $12 billion in assets frozen after the hostages were seized.
"Their attempt to extort money has not
been successful, and their brakes into
aplugage so it lofted through the
wall."
Carter's press secretary, Jody Powell, said there were tears in Carter's eyes as the smiling hostages lined up to shake the hand of the man who was killed about 30 minutes before their release Tuesday.
"Without a doubt, the happiest moment of my life—more than when I was married, more than when I graduated from Annapolis, more than when I was elected president—was when I learned yesterday that your plane had taken off." Carter said.
THE HOSTAGES crowded the balconies of the building and waited for chefs and wave the former chief executive.
"trank God and Jimmy they are home," said a sign waved by him below. "We still love you." "And I and my husband and I,"
Before leaving, Helmut paid special thanks to Chancellor Helmut Schmidt and other West
German officials, who he said "helped us in ways I can never reveal public to the world."
While Carter was meeting with the hostages in West Germany, the new administration in the United States was planning to "carefully study" the agreement ending the hostage crisis before deciding whether to carry it out, according to a State Department spokesman.
Most of the necessary documents, in the form of executive agreements, were signed by Carter and the left.
However, some of the mechanics of the agreement, including the shipment of remaining military spares, would have to be completed to carry out the complex deal, in which Iran's $12 billion in frozen assets were to have been traded for the 52 American hostages.
Spokesman William Dyess, stressing that he was speaking for the new team under Secretary of State-designate Alexander Haig, said, "the Reagan administration doesn't want to commit itself without having had a chance to study the documents.
"There are many financial and legal issues that you need to consider. And President Reagan will study it very closely."
Earlier, new Treasury Secretary Donald Regan said the general outline of the hostage agreement did not appear to present any problems. The administration would review the tactics of the case.
"We've been kept abreast by the previous administration, but we don't know the specific details," Regan said. "We'll be going into those today."
U. S. officials said about $8 billion of Iran's assets were transferred to an escrow account Tuesday morning before the hostages were freed.
However, an additional amount, thought to be more than $4 billion, is still under U.S. control, in the form of contested funds in banks or other companies as real estate, securities and other property.
Under the agreement, such property will be handed over to Iran as it is turned into liquid assets, or as legal questions are settled.
Parties looking to 1982 gubernatorial race

Both sides agreed that it was too early to make any firm strategy commitments for next year's races. But at the same time, both sides said that they would be the building blocks for next year's campaigns.
Kansas Democrats are busy refilling the state campaign treasury, while state Republicans are concentrating on the Legislature, but both sides are concentrating quietly towards the 108 gubernatorial race.
Democrat Gov. John Cartlin is considering running for a second term. And a handful of Republicans have said so.
The Republicans face a different challenge with so many possible candidates, said Sarah Toews, research director for the Kansas Republican Central Committee.
"I would not anticipate any other candidates now," Plim Pogor, executive director of the State Democratic Central Committee, said yesterday. "I'm not aware of anyone talking about it."
"A lot of these people won't want to divide the Party. That's not our goal," she said. "Our goal is to remain united."
Tows said she did not think "a half dozen people will run" in the Republican primary.
soon. Owen, former lt. governor, state senate and campaign manager for Sen. Robert Dole, R-Kan. has scheduled news conferences across Kansas Monday.
Owen had said last fall that he would be a candidate
Only one Republican—David Owen of Stanley-
sa he planned to make a formal announcement
Other Republicans eyeing the governor's job are former Gov. Robert Bennett, Attorney General Robert Stephan, former State Sen. Wint Winter Sr. and House Speaker Wendell Lady.
Bennett said he would announce this fall bother him. He has said he had been leased buildings last year and will move them.
THE ONLY DEMOCRAT to file for the chairmanship, which is being relinquished by Larry Bengsten of Junction City, is Robert Tilton.
Traditionally, Kansas Democrats reorganize their central committee and choose state leaders 100% of the time.
Plover said the Democrats' work on the 1982 race would not start in earnest after 1982, when he was 67.
IN THE 1978 race, Carlin unsecured Bennett, who is now a lawyer in Overland Park.
Plover said Tilton, chairman of the Shawnee County committee,"had the blessing of Boehner."
Also this winter, Democrats need to replenish their state campaign chest.
Ploger said the state committee spent a record $33,000 on races across Kansas in 1980.
Toevs said her party was busy "watching Carlin and closely keeping track of his broken promises."
Tows said two "broken promises" that could be fodder for Republicans campaigning in 1982 were Carlin's retreat from his support of the campaign, his failure to lower utility bills as he promised.
Carlin campaigned for those issues in 1978. He was unavailable for comment yesterday.
One issue the Legislature will consider this session is the exposed and percent severance of mineral resources and minerals.
The proposed tax is viewed by many
themselves as a potential attempt by Carlin
to make points with the voters.
"All I can give is the governor's stock answer, good government is good politics," Ploger
He said Carlin was trying to keep the tax issue "out of the realm of politics."
Republicans think the tax plan would "blow up in his'bil's face." Tees said.
"He admitted last week that it will increase utility bills."
I didn't think that Caryin's stand on the
But Pilger predicted that casual severance tax would be a political plus for him.
Another possible legislative issue is capital punishment. Toews called that issue "pivitol."

Student group objects to football game move
Staff Reporter
A group of six KU students protested moving the 1981 KU-Missouri football game to Arrowhead Stadium by parading signs in front of camera cameras at last night's football game.
The students, organized by former student body president Greg Schnacke, carried signs citing slogans against the team. "We're a Memorial Stadium" and "Jawhawk football is for Jawhawk country,"
in the stands at Allen Field House during halftime.
The students also handed out petitions stating opposition to the move of any future KU-MU games scheduled to be played in Lawrence to the Kansas City, Mo., stadium. The petitions were printed with Student Senate letterhead.
Bert Coleman, student body president, said that the signs and petitions were not authorized by Student Senate, but that he was the president. Coleman wrote to the committee the opinion of KU alumni on a move.
