Revue chalks up donations
This year's projected $35,000 Rock Chalk Revue donation to the United Way of Douglas County is expected to exceed last year's sum by about 17 percent.

The Rock Chalk Revue could buy 7,000 pizzas from Pizza Shuttle with the profits from the show. Instead, it hopes to donate the $25,000 to the United Way.
This year's goal donation is about 17 percent more than last year's $30,000 donation.
"For example, if someone calls and needs food, we don't just give it to them. We tell them which agency that we've funded that they can go to." Titts said.
"Every year we try to figure out new ways to raise more money. This year we had a drawing for a trip to the Lake of the Ozarks, a free dinner at Teller's and a couple of movie tickets," said Andrew Schauder, Green Bay, Wis., junior and executive producer.
Debbie Titts, United Way office manager, said the donation from last year's show was one of the largest group contributions in Douglas County.
are distributed among the 30 member agencies. Although the United Way does not help people directly, it sends people and money to agencies that need help.
The United Way receives about $900,000 in annual donations.
Ticket sales and program advertisements make up most of the money that the revenue gives to the United Way.

Ticket prices are $10 for Thursday,
$12 for Friday and $15 for Saturday. The Saturday performance is sold out.
"Saturday always sells out the quickest, that's why it is more," Schauder said.
Schauder said that the shows often sold out, and that the ticket prices were set according to demand.
Cash cap makes groups spend less
Tickets can be purchased at the SUA and Lied Center box offices.
Limits enforced during notebook selection process
By Jennifer Roush Special to the Kansan
Simple demo tapes were required
Entrepreneurs know that it takes money to make money. But this year, groups that wanted to participate in Rock Chalk Revue had to spend a little less money to get into the show.
Groups could not use color copies in their notebooks or use professional services to record their music.
To reduce spending by organizations not guaranteed a place on the playbill, the revue advisory board set spending limits for notebooks and music presented to judges in November.
of all prospective performers,but the board did not set specific dollar limits.
Revue executive and assistant directors imposed the limit in response to spiraling expenditures by groups trying out for the show.
Kristin Moore, revue business manager and Lawrence senior, said that in previous years, many revue hopefuls had spent as much as $2,000 on recording. Notebooks with color pages and slick production added to the totals.
Performers were unfazed by the changes and said they believed that the quality of the revue would be unaffected by the limits.
"Our house and Sigma Nu spent around $3,000 on our notebook and tape," Mitchell said. "The spending limit isn't a problem at all. It's really been more of a relief. It just puts the smaller organizations on better footing with groups that have more funding, and you don't have to sit around wondering how much you need to spend. It also keeps people from getting taken advantage of in recording studios."
Mike Russell, Pittsburg, Kan., senior and a director for the Delta Chi-Gamma Phi Beta show, said that spending limits forced groups to rely more on their initiative and creativity.
Once a group makes the cut, however, all bets are off. Many living organizations allow for Rock Chalk spending in their yearly budgets. Cast and crew members contribute as well. The revue board sets no spending limits on show supplies.
Aime Mitchell, St. Louis junior, agreed with the new limits. Her sorority, Delta Gamma, tried out for the revue last fall but didn't
make the cut.
Russell estimated that Delta Chi and Gamma Phi Beta spent about $2,000 to get into the revue. Since being selected in November, they have spent between $1,500 and $2,000 for sets, about $1,500 for costumes and about $700 for music.
No color copies could be included in submitted notebooks.

For 49 years, Rock Chalk Revue has entertained audiences at the University of Kansas. The revue is the University's largest single contributor to the Douglas County United Way. The revue's donation goal this year is $35,000 plus thousands of hours of community service.
The Rock Chalk Review Advisory Board set guidelines this year to encourage groups to spend less and to allow more groups to compete for the review.
