University Daily Kansan, February 1, 1982 Page 5 at t, id s. bn Group backs women's sports By BARB EHLI Staff Reporter Kansas Women's Sports Inc. is growing stronger and speaking louder in its support of women's athletics at the University of Kansas, according to the president of KWSL. Marilyn Ainsworth, KU law professor and president of KWSI, said the group targeted its first membership drive toward unclassified women faculty and staff members, parents of women athletes and alumni athletes and unclassified faculty and staff are University employees who are made part hourly basis but are under different contract agreements. NOT ALL the members are women. Wes Santee, former Olympic runner and Del Brinkman, dean of the School of Journalism, and Athetic Corporation are members. Smith said. The Kansas Union Bookstore has KWSI membership forms and a box for purchase at the Kansas Union Bookstore. profit" dividends. Each semester the bookstore redeems about six percent of the total amount of receipts from the previous semester. The retired wing winger of KOK. Mike Reid, assistant manager of the bookstore, announced last week that $800 had been collected so far. KWSI was started three years ago by Carol Shankel, public information coordinator at Spencer Art Museum, and Carryl Smith, dean of KWSI who directs its efforts on behalf of KWR women athletes. "We knew a lot of people who were interested in women's sports and we tried to get information out to support the athletes and coaches." Smith said. SINCE THEN, KWSI has become incorporated, has gained tax-exempt status from the Internal Revenue Service and has received a bulk-mail permit from the nost office. Ainsworth said that at a luncheon last spring, Bob Marcum, former KU athletic director, requested suggestions for the athletic department to work on improving the ticketing and timing arrangements for the doubleheader men's and women's basketball games She never received an answer to or acknowledgment of the letter, she said. "We made the suggestions initially at his request," she said. It makes you wonder if the invitation simply empty. A copy of the letter was sent to the University of Kangas Athletic Corporation. THE WOMEN's games begin at 5:15 p.m., too early for many people, especially those who work, to get to Lawrence during the week to watch them, she said. "Some fans have suggested that the men's games be moved to 8:30 p.m. or 9 p.m., with women's games then starting at 6:30 p.m. or 7 p.m." she wrote. Brinkman said KUAC did not put the item on its agenda because it was not a decision under its control. He said KUAC was a policy-making body and did not set times for the games. ALTHOUGH KUAC received a copy of the letter, it did not respond because members thought the letter was purely informational, Brinkman said. Junk From page 1 two years ago, his son Ralph and daughter-in-law Melody have continued the tradition. "We get a lot of locals, but 75 percent of our customers are college kids." Melody Smith One Sunday evening, the Joe's patrons—college girl in sweat suits—ordered sandwiches and lemonade. "Tomorrow we diet," said one, her mouth full. "At night is when we really run people through, after people have been studying or out drinking," Ralph Smith said, as he rolled out cinnampt twists. At Baskin-Robins 31 Flavors Ice Cream Store, 1524 W. 23rd St., people in sweat pants and suits pressed to the glass counter to place their orders. ONE COLLEGE student ordered a double dip cone with chocolate chip and dijon ice cream, topped with salt. Todd Martin, an employee at the store, said the busiest time was from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. "Everybody's just finished dinner. We make our own ice cream pies and people come in and buy it to eat for dessert at the end of the day or to 9 p.m. students are taking a study break." In 1979, 819 million gallons of ice cream, 297 million gallons of ice milk and 45 million gallons of sherbet were produced in the U.S. according to the U.S. Statistical Abstract. The average American consumed 17.6 pounds of ice cream that year. The average American also consumed 91.3 pounds of sugar and 3.3 pounds of cocoa beans. "Dark chocolate is nutritious because it gives you a lift and stimulates your muscles," John Bowen, co-owner of Chocolate Unlimited Inc., 1601 W. 29th St., said. Chocolate is perhaps the most craved and controversial snack item. BUT BOWEN doesn't let his children have chocolate because "the sugar content winds However, most people, unless they're diabetic or hypoglycemic, have blood sugar levels that stay about the same, regardless of whether they are taking the same medication. Pan Manerum, dietitian at Watkins Hospital. "it's more of a psychological high than a physical one," Mangrum said. "It's not like a locomotive. If you add coal, a locomotive will go faster. Bodies aren't like that. "There's only so much sugar your body can use at a given point. The extra fuel will go to you," she said. In a pamphlet issued to nutritionists and dietitians, the Chocolate Manufacturers Association of the United States said that studies had not borne out accusations that "chocolate causes acne, contributes to obesity, or promotes tooth decay in children." Lee Bittenbender, Lawrence dermatologist, said that there was no scientific evidence to support restricting a diet for the treatment. So such action was "unnecessarily punitive." "Just because Joe Blow eats candy bars and gets zits doesn't mean who who eats cany will get acne." Bittenbender said. SOME PEOPLE have switched to eating carab instead of chocolate because it doesn't contain caffeine and has been purported to be more nutritious. The Chocolate Manufacturers Association—and carab was introduced—from 19 to 39 percent—and lower in nutritional value than chocolate. "Granola bars and nut mixes with carob are not bad as a snack for someone who needs to gain weight or for active people, but they're not a good way to diet." "Carob had been glorified as a health food. It's really not," Mangrum said, "as a matter of tradition." Jolly said manufacturers advertised differences between candy bars and granola bars "to reach out and sell you something ana take your money." However, Jolly, Larsen and Mangrum agreed that snacking in moderation was fine as long as snacks were included in a well-balanced diet. MANGRUM recommended snacking on raw vegetables, fruits and whole grains as well. Jolly said people should take advantage of coffee breaks, but should eat cheese and bread. "Once you start people with that nutritional knowledge, you give them an awareness so they don't eat three candy bars and drink three colas while they're studying," he said. on campus THE UNDERGRADEM ART AND CABINET INSTRUCTIONS at 8:30 p.m. in the Art Design Building Gallery.

"The major part of renovation is finished." Cliff Haka, circulation librarian, said recently. Students no longer have to study amidst the noise, dust and moisture in renovation areas, which began in May 1980. high-use service areas are concentrated on the main entrance floor and one floor up from them, so patrons don't have to wander around as much." "It is a lot better than before." Rich Meadow, D.J., N.J. junior, "It's cleaner and quieter." "The key difference," Haka said, "is that the Students can sign up for tours of the renovated library in the main entrance of the library. Haka said the library now had central heating and air-conditioning to maintain constant temperature and humidity levels for book preservation. Meeting From page 1 Lawrence, said Kansas' wealth could turn against the state under Reagan's plan. lving these programs back to the states is a question of national unity. Some states are just weak. "The president said you could vote with your feet by moving to another state," she said. "Kansas could draw the unemployed and the poor from other states." Charlton said federal control of social programs "has bound us into a nation, rather than into a system." Harder said federal law prohibited SRS from withholding aid to non-residents. But he said he did not think Reagan's plan would bring a surge of newcomers to Kansas. UNEMPLOYMENT is the key factor in welfare issues, Harder said. And he is not optimistic about the ability of Reaganismics to create new jobs and decrease the need for social support. "The people in Detroit are moving to Houston in hordes," he said. "But Houston's a boom town. We don't have anything like a boom town happening in Kansas." unemployment recently," he said. "But often they unwilling to accept any new services that are suitable for social services." "We've seen a nudge of improvement in State Rep. John Solbach, D-Lawrence, said Reagan's plan would create further need for welfare because federal taxes were more considerable of the poor than state taxes, which would have to be raised substantially to implement the new federalism. "The fairest tax we have is the federal income tax," he said. "It doesn't hurt the poor disproportionately heavier than the rich. Every day Kansas is regressive by the poor by nature." Although the new federalism would throw many programs for the aging into a state of uncertainty, a retired Lawrence grade school teacher, who is one of the senior citizens of Lawrence were worried. "We're here, and we're going to have to be faced," said the teacher, Cecelia Pearson. "There's so many more elderly now than there are young people, and 10 years from now they will be even more." "It's something we're going to have to do something about. I don't know that the federal programs can do it all. I'm willing to see what Kansas can do."
