Hart arising as Reagan's foe Hart buries Mondale in Vermont; Reagan is ahead, third win on road to nomination maintains Carter
By United Press International
Sen. Gary Hart buried Walter Mondale in a landslide in Vermont's non-binding primary yesterday, grabbing his third straight victory in the battle for the Democratic presidential nomination.
With 97 percent of the 264 previews reporting at 11:30 p.m. CST, Hart had 49,213 votes or 71 percent, Mondale 14,273 or 20 percent and Jesse Jackson 5,465 or 8 percent. Even though Reubin Askwell dropped out of the race last week, he still got 415 votes, less than 1 percent of the total.
Campaigning in Florida, Hart noted that in Vermont a lot of Republicans apparently crossed over to vote for him and he said that meant he could beat Ronald Reagan in November.
"I believe the result in Vermont shows this campaign does have a chance to reach out beyond the Democratic Party to expand the frontiers of our party and to expand the electoral base of our party." Hart said. "I intend to defeat Ronald Reagan."
MONDALE STILL LED in the battle for delegates to the Democratic National Convention. He had 132 to 29 for Hart. Many of Mondale's delegates were House members picked earlier this year to go to the convention and they could change their pledges.
Mondale dismissed the Vermont results, saying, "We were not really contesting Vermont. No delegates were being selected in the contest."
HART'S STUNNING Vermont victory — his most impressive to date — gave the Colorado senator a clean sweep in northern New England over the past eight days.

That would mean he would be building on a string of four consecutive wins going into Super Tuesday, March 13, when 11 jurisdictions hold primaries and caucuses to pick 511 delegates.

WASHINGTON — Jimmy Carter said yesterday that President Reagan would win if the 1984 election were held today but the Democrats "have a good chance" in November if they can overcome his charm, dramatize the issues, and unite for the first time in 20 years.
"Today, I think President Reagan would win," the former president said.
But, Carter said, "I think the Democrats have a good chance provided we can delineate the issues and overcome this personal attraction." But Carter also provided we have a unified Democratic Party.

A proposal passed yesterday by the KU College Assembly will include some KU students from some upper-level computer science courses after this semester because of new grade point average and prequisite requirements.
The assembly, the governing body of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, passed a proposal from the acting chairman of the computer science department that will set new standards for eligibility to take some computer sciences courses above CS 200 and CS 210.
According to the new policy, students who enroll in courses beyond CS 210 without having established eligibility automatically lose their places in those courses.

Tonight 'Hawks begin second season with rematch against O-State
By JEFF CRAVENS Sports Editor
Now we start
That was Larry Brown's first statement after Saturday's 91-70 victory over Oklahoma State. Brown was referring to the "second season," in which a team ends its season with the next loss.
The Jayhawks start down the tournament road at 9:10 tonight against the Cowboys in Allen Field House. Many KU players said that although they have to play OSU in back-to-back games, the Cowboys were a better choice than some of the other alternatives.
KU and Oklahoma State split the season series, with OSU winning 71-61 in Stillwater. Kansas State and Missouri, the two other teams that were possible opponents, both were beaten twice by the Jayhawks this season.
"Now we start."
BROWN, HOWEVER, thinks teams that play on the final day of the regular season should not face each other in the first round of the tournament. Colorado and Iowa State, who play tomorrow night, also are faced with that situation.
"I think it’s tough," Brown said. "I think they (Big Eight officials) have to change a situation like that. I don’t think it makes a lot of sense. But that’s the way it is."
"If we had beat them twice, then I would have minded playing them back-to-back," forward Carl Henry said. "Since we split, I don't think it is that important."
KU center Greg Dreiling said, "I guess it really doesn't matter. The fans might want to see someone else, but we'll come out and play like it's the finals of the tournament."
For OSU coach Paul Hansen, the back-to-back meetings mark the second time in four years he has been faced with that situation against the Jayhawks. Three years ago, KU won the regular season finale by 15 points, then beat the Cowboys 96-69 in the first round of the tournament.
of the doctor, "We don't want to do it, but it's something we have to do." Hansen said about returning tonight. "We did it a few years ago and it got worse. We hope to come back and make it an incredible game."
THE COWBOYS ARE led by 6-foot-7 sophomore forward Joe Atkinson, who led OSU with 25 points and seven rebounds Saturday. He scored 24 points in the victory over KU earlier this season.
over RK carries the ball. "Atkinson is always a factor out on the court," Henry said. "He is always blocking shots and getting on the boards."
Raymond Crenshaw, who has switched from forward to guard late in the season, scored 18 points and grabbed seven rebounds Saturday. Winfred Case, a reserve guard, was the only other OSU player in double figures with 14 points.
Calvin Thompson continues to be the hottest Jahewk, hitting 62.6 during the past eight conference games, scoring in double figures in each game. Thompson's streak began with the first Oklahoma State game, in which he scored 17 points.
"I FIGURE WE HAVE to play hard." Thompson said about tonight's game. "We have to work on stopping Joe because he is such a great player."
Forward Kelly Knight scored his career-high 28 points in Saturday's game.
KU's 7-foot center Greg Dreling says it really doesn't matter that the Jayhawks face Oklahoma State again tonight. Dreiling scored 11 points and grabbed seven rebounds against the Cowboys Saturday.
