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 precincts 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 per cent. Even though Reubin Askew 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." (Louis Blair/AP)
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.
Hart was favored to score another victory Saturday in Wyoming, a friendly western state where the Storm had not been defeated.
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 attractiveness of President Reagan, and provided we have a unified Democratic Party."
Among Carter's observations on other foreign and domestic issues;

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.
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 prequise requirements.
According to the new policy, students who enroll in courses beyond CS 210 without having established eligibility automatically lose their places in those courses.
WILLIAM BULGREN, acting chairman of the computer science department, said he proposed

Big 8 tourney means money for conference
By MATT DeGALAN Staff Reporter
Bill Hancock, the assistant commissioner of the Big Eight Conference and the tournament manager, said he expected the tournament to generate nearly 480,000 revenue.
The Big Eight Conference basketball tournament means not only big excitement and big crowds, but also big money for each of the conference's schools.
Tournament profits are one of the conference's sources of income, along with television revenue, bowl game revenue and post-season playoff revenue. After the conference pays its expenses, the profits divided equally among the eight schools.
FOR THE FIRST time, the Big Eight women's basketball tournament will be at Kemper the same weekend as the men's tournament.
Hancock said that the women's games weren't profitable because expenses were just as high as they were for the men's games, yet income was much lower because fan interest and ticket prices were lower.
Tickets for the women's games are $3.
The games will be played in the afternoon before the men's games.
"We'll be lucky to get out with less than a $10,000 to $15,000 loss," he said.
This year, KU will receive about $800,000 in Big Eight revenue. Athletic department business manager Susan Wachter said it was impossible, however, to pinpoint how much of the revenue was generated from the tournament.
Most of the tournament's income comes from ticket sales, Hancock said. He said he expected Kemper Arena to sell out for each of the tournament's games.
Income from the first-round games, which are played at the schools that finished in the top four of the Big Eight tournament into the Big Eight tournament's coffers.
A negligible amount of income is generated from the $100 fee charged to radio stations that broadcast the games. The remaining stations planned to broadcast the games.
Each school is allotted 500 tickets for the games played in Kemper. The rest of the tickets are ordered through the Big Eight office or at Kemper. Tickets can also be purchased at Sears, Roebuck and Co- stores.
TICKETS FOR THE games cost $9 and
11. Kemmer Arena has a capacity 16,642.
TELEVISION COVERAGE of the games does not directly generate income, Hancock said, because the tournament is part of the conference's television package for the entire season with Katz-Anheuser Busch Broadcasting.
He said, however, that the tournament made the Big Eight television contract a more attractive offer for television stations. He didn't know how much more television money the tournament was responsible for generating.
For the first time, all four first-round games will be televised. The games will be packaged as two double-headers and because of this, two of the games, including tonight's KU game, will start at 9:10 p.m.
THE BIG EIGHT pays the teams' traveling and lodging expenses when they come to the tournament. It also pays the expenses of the visiting teams at the first-round games.
Ticket manager Terry Johnson said he didn't think the late starting time would hurt ticket sales for tonight's game.
