NCAA basketball championship T-shirts are still hot sellers. The Kansas Union Bookstore has a variety of styles and sizes on sale.
Championship souvenirs Jayhawk basketball T-shirts still in demand
By Debbie McMahon
Kansan staff writer
Some places have them. Some places don't. And some places used to have them.
But Jayhawk championship basketball T-shirts and other souvenirs are still selling at some stores.
"We're still printing them, and we're still selling them," said Rosman Sikkerson, owner of Sparkle House 835 Massachusetts St.
She said that the Jayhawks would be the champs until the next Association championship game, so people still wanted to buy souvenirs. Travelers and people who attended the Junior Olympics were shocked by the defeat.
In August bought a book
"The biggest problem we had
was the manufacturers didn't think KU would win," she said.
Even though the store placed orders with wholesalers two weeks prior to the victory on the condition that they didn't arrive until a week after the game. Sales of Jayhawk championships novelties boosted overall sales by 36%.
The University of Kansas Memorial Corporation saw an 83 percent increase in royalty fees for the use of the Jayhawk logo during its 1986 fiscal year, compared to the same period in 1867, said Mike Reid, general manager of the Kansas Union Bookstore. Last fiscal year's royalties brought in about $4,400.
The dayhawk logo is purchased and the rights to it have to be purchased. But the Unions, the
Athletic Department and
Jayhawk Book Store have
contracts which exempt them from
the fees, he said.
Reed said the Jayhawk lodge cost $50 as a start-up fee. The manufacturer of the product must pay 6 percent of the total cost each item sold as a royalty fee.

But some people no longer are reaping the benefits of souvenir sales.
But even with 10,000 shirts left,
Haines said the Athletic Department
nobody hadn't taken a loss.
"We've made money," he said. And we've paid for them."

Residence halls to form judicial board
Bv Barbara Joseph
Kansan staff writer
The bad news from the Association of University
race races Haliburton to UK Kansas State came
unclear since then.
The good news is that a new judicial board for handling residence hall violations and a blood donor clinic have been approved.
Stafford, AURH adviser, said the Sept. 17 canoe races were canceled because the Kansas River was too low. A Kansas State University basketball game would be postponed until next spring.
The races have been part of a 17-year tradition among the residents and alumni of KU and KState
residence halls. The race along the Kaw Riverinian Indianan and ended in Lawrence's Burcham Park.
The races ran consistently from 1967 to 1983 then skipped 1984-86 because of organizational problems. In 1987, the two schools created the Halffay There Race, extending from Manhattan to SL.
AURI also is planning a student judicial board to oversee hall violations.
Thomas Hopkins, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore and a member of the AURH committee planning the board, said it would include 10 students from the program as part of the team to recommend punishment of offenders to Fred
McEhlenie, director of residential programs. The board would handle violations such as alcohol in residence hall rooms, noise complaints and other violations not requiring police intervention.
two residents from each of the eight halls would alternate sitting on two committees of four. Hopkins said he course was to have three members, Ellsworth, Joseph R Pearson and Lewis halls. The other committee would be composed of people from Hashinger, Oliver, Gertlede Nirshada Pearson-Corbian and Reinhard Finke.
remember to ask and the purpose of the board was to provide judgment by one's peers and increase student confidence.
Hotline matches partygoers with party-givers

After a mittled blast of distorted rock music, the voice said that for another day he had no parties to attend.
"For us to advertise a party, we must first know about it," the voice explains. Quickly he plugs a business and an upcoming concert. The music returns.
The Party Hotline is off to a slow start.
The for-profit hotline, run by Lawrence resident Steve Bryce-Holtzman, is a recording intended to connect party seekers with party-givers. For a fee, party-givers can advertise with daily messages
Bryce Holtzman said that although a need for the holated test, only two parties had advertised to participate.
Some people may not want to advertise on the hotline because they don't want hundreds of unknown guests, he said. Another reason for the slow start, he said, could be that students don't

the Alpha Kappa Lambda fraternity advertised an after-hour party. Five hundred people showed up at the party, though 200 people usually attend, and they were Fielder. Overland Park senior and a fraternity member.
"The line helped people find out about the party who wouldn't have otherwise known. The hotline was one of the few."
In the meantime, to solve the scarcity of advertisers, Bryce Holtzman has decided to open his services to local bars who want cheap advertising.
Bryce-Holtzman said that Garmons had a month-long trial advertising agreement with him. The Garmons logo appears in the Party Holine's advertisements, and the bar is plugged first.

"Iused to post flyers telling my friends where parties would be," he said. "The hotline was just an extension of that."

KU senator's fan club used to illustrate rules
By Deb Gruver
Kansan staff writer
Call the club a joke. Its president does.
The William Sanders — What A Guy club started in July when William Sanders, a senator on the Student Senate Executive Committee, decided he needed a fan club.
His fan club is now a registered organization at the University of Kansas. The organization, for short, is listed in the 1988 registered student, campus and community organizations brochure put out by the Organizations Council.
"I went through with it," Sanders said. "I listed my officers and found we needed a staff person to be registered and asked Trina, the Student Secretary, if she would be our staff person."
She consented, and Billy-WAG was accepted by the Organizations and Activities Centers. The officers for the Billy-WAG club are Jane Hutchinson, president, Pam Holm, vice president; Roger Tempel, manager and Joek Worses secretary, who is also student body president.
Total membership was estimated at six people.
Holley, student body vice president, said that the Billy-WAG club was used in Topeka last weekend
'Our motto is 'We're
dedicated to not taking ourselves too seriously.
— Jane Hutchinson president of Billy-WAG
at the Student Senate training session to illustrate the Senate's rules and regulations for financing a registered organization.
Sanders said that the Billy-WAG club was used as a bad example.
"It broke every rule and regulation," Sanders said. "It asked for funds for food, Senate Senate fund or non-partisan club fund non-partisan club fund."
Since Billy WAG is a non-partisan political club, it did not pass laws requiring them to rule last year, senators asked for $175,000 to buy seven cars for
Although they would like to start collecting dues to afford their picture in the dayhawk Yearbook, they don't have no serious plans for the future.
"Our motto is 'We're dedicated to not taking ourselves too seriously.'" Hutchinson said
Billy-WAG members have not met this semester, but Sanders said that they were planning to have dinner and go bowling.
