Liquor bottles among the debris Stadium crowds leave garbage
By MICHAEL PAUL Staff Reporter
About 40 members of the Air Force ROTC dragged black garbage bags around Memorial Stadium Saturday afternoon picking up popcorn boxes, plastic buses, wet hot dog buns, soggy towels and chewing tobacco and dirty diapers.
The trash was left by the estimated 31,300 people who ate and drank their way through the KU-Oklahoma State football game.
Bruce Havens, Topea junior, said that members of the Air Force ROTC used the money they received for cleaning up the stadium to pay for dances and other events they sponsored.
Gemit Williams, Kansas City, Kan. freshman, said that the aisles probably would not be as full of trash if trash containers were hung on the railings in the stadium where people could throw their trash.
"I KNOW THAT there are trash containers under the stadium, but not too many people want to carry their bags with them to those containers," he said.
But cups and food aren't the only items of trash that the Air Force ROTC workers find. They also find bottles of beer and fifths of liquor, which they put
on the seats for other maintenance workers to collect later.
And judging from the bottles of liquor left on the seats after Saturday's game, some fans apparently spent more time talking about Hiram Walker. Jack Daniels and Jim Beam than they did before. Kerwin Bell and Mike Gottfried.
Although drinking is prohibited in the stadium, a quick count showed that 45 bottles of beer and liquor had been sneaked into the west section of the stadium, the section where the alumni sit, and 88 bottles had been sneaked into the students sit. And one bottle of liquor had been left in a brown paper sack.
THE PERSON WHO drank his liquor from the brown paper sack might have known that the KU Police Department has a video camera in the press box that it uses to scan the crowd for conduct in the stadium and on the hill.
Lt. Jeanne Longaker of the KU Police Department said that the videotape was run only when trouble was spotted and that the purpose of the camera was to help KU police identify who was causing trouble and where.
Longaker said that 25 members of the KU police patrolled the stadium during the game and that some were not in uniform.
Members of the Lawrence Police Department, the Douglas County Sheriff's Department and the Kansas Highway Patrol help to direct traffic at the games but they can in no way guarantee that if any problems develop during a game, she said.
KU police average about one or two arrests a football season, and the police usually remove one or two people a game for disorderly conduct, she said.
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM is people who throw cups during games, she said. During the KU-K-State game, one person was hit in the head by a plastic cup that someone had thrown and had to be treated at a first aid station.
Longaker said that it was difficult to catch people who threw cups and other objects.
She said that there were no disturbances during Saturday's game.
Cris Bridges, a patrolman for the KU police department, said, "We have the power to deliver."
The cold weather also kept people from sitting on the hill south of Memorial Stadium.
Ray Woods, one of the 10 facilities operations employees who worked Saturday afternoon picking up trash on the grassy slope, said that because not many people sat on the hill to watch the game, it would not take long to pick up.
ABOUT 100 PEOPLE sat on the hill to watch the KU-Oklahoma State game, although an estimate of 500 people game from the hill the previous weekend.
Members of the Air Force ROTC pick up the trash that litters Memorial Stadium. The ROTC members used 85 bags to clean up trash left behind after Saturday's game.

KDOT officials hope computers stop bid rigging
By United Press International
TOPEKA — One of Kansas newest detectives hums shrillly and shoots out a succession of charts and maps — colorful pictures Kansas Department of Transportation officials hope will help prevent highway project bid rigging.
The detective is a computer system called Bid Analysis Management System. Basis is among the first states to use BAMS to fight bid rigging and its resulting overcharges to the public's pocketbook.
Setting up highway construction project bids to their advantage had become a way of life for some of the state's major road builders, court proceedings acknowledged. But the U.S. Justice Department in 1979 launched bid-rigging investigations that spread to 17 states.
As revelations of bid rigging shook Kansas and guilty contractors were punished for setting up bids, questions were raised about why KDOT had overlooked bidding irregularities and collusion patterns that could have tipped the state to the deals.
