Men's, women's track teams begin season with two meets
By the Kansan Staff
The Kansas men's and women's track teams will open their indoor seasons this weekend at two different meets. The East Tennessee State College in Johnson City, Tenn., and the Second All-Cameroons Meet in Allen Fieldhouse.
Men's head coach Bob Timmons sent seven athletes to the East Tennessee meet, which begins tonight. It is an annual qualifying meet with no team scoring.
Juniors Jim Metzger and Tom Hays will compete in the pole vault. Metzger won the collegiate division of the meet last year with a vault of 16 feet.
Stuart Burleson, a freshman from Midland Texas, will compete in the high jump, in which he went 7-0 in high school.
Roundout out the KU contingent will be the distance medley relay team of sophomore Bunten and juniors Annemilly, Greg Dalzell, and Greg Lebert.
Nine athletes from head coach Carla Coffey's women's team also went to the ESPN 10 tournament.
Seniors Connie McKernan and Chirie Taylor will run the 60-yard high hurdles. Competing in the middle distance events for KU will be Paula Bernquist, a transfer from Barton County Community College, in the 880; Cindy Blakeley, a freshman from Ottowa, in the mile; and seniors Annette Craighead and Caryne Finlay in the two mile.
Coffey said the two KU shotputters competing in the meet could be among the best in the Big Eight this year. Junior Sitter Lerdahl, a Norwegian native, finished runner-up in the shot both indoors and out in the Big Eight tournament last season. He holds the Missouri high school record in both the shot and the discus.
The remaining members of the men's and women's squads will compete in the All-Comers Meet on Saturday. Several Big Eight schools and area junior colleges are expected to attend the day-long event.
Competition in the combined collegiate and open division will begin in the one hour after the morning Junior athletes for high school athletes concludes.
Rose agrees to contract with Montreal
By United Press International
TAMPA, Fla. — Pete Rose is going to get his chance to break Ty Cobb's record after all.
The Montreal Expos have offered the 42-year-old Rose a two-year, $800,000-a-year contract, which he accepted.
Rose was not exactly overwhelmed by the terms, feeling he still is worth more, but he has no other big league star on his radar when spotted in swipe out Cobb's mark of 4.191 hits.
The Expos have called a news
conference for this afternoon at Olympic Stadium where they will introduce Rose as the newest member of their ball club.
What held up the agreement for a while between Rose's attorney Ruven Katz and Expos president John McHale was the same thing that holds up so many other agreements — money. That and Rose's pride.
Rose believes he should get more than the Expos are offering. But he also realizes he needs 201 more hits to pass Cobb and if he doesn't sign with Montreal, he might not get another opportunity.

Last month Taylor signed a contract with the Generals of the USFL, which was to begin when his six year contract with the Giants expired at the end of the 1987 season. As part of the deal Taylor received a $1 million, 25-year interest free loan from Generals' owner Donald Trump.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — All pro linebacker Lawrence Taylor has bought his way out of a future contract he signed with the New Jersey Generals and had his contract with the New York Giants in the 2015 season, it was announced yesterday.
"The Giants are pleased that the issue has been quickly resolved with Taylor's commitment to the Giants and the league's leagueague." a spokesman for the cllub said.
Once the Giants learned of the deal with the Generals they offered to renegotiate Taylor's contract but only if he could get out of his deal with

Through his agent, Mike Trope, Taylor succeeded in buying his way out of the contract he signed with the Generals by agreeing to pay Trump
By United Press International
Taylor said the prospect of playing for the Generals in 1983 had seemed far less likely.
Although the Giants would not divvage the terms of the new contract with Taylor, it was reported he will have his 1984 salary increased from $190,000 to $650,000, then get raises to $750,000, $850,000, $500,000, $1 million and $1.5 million in each of the next years.
The Giants reportedly will loan Taylor $1 million under undisclosed
"This is something that Mr. Trump did not have to do," said Taylor "He did it for my welfare and it is something that will not soon be forgotten by me."
In addition, the Giants will obtain the right of first refusal on any contract Taylor gets from another league to make sure he can't run ship again.
“四 years is a long contract in itself,” he said. “It didn’t seem important down the road. I planned to play four good years for the Giants. The Generals gave me security. It wasn’t a question of me ripping off the Giants or ripping off Donald Trump. Mike Trope did a good job for我.”
