University Daily Kansan, January 22, 1982 Page 7 Marcum enjoyed stay at KU By BARB EHLI Staff Reporter A "Room for Rent" sign won't be hanging in front of Parnett Athletic Center on Jan. 25, but the director of the school's office will be empty, just the same. Bob Marcum, former KU athletic director, will be on his way to the University of South Carolina to serve as athletic director there. In an interview yesterday, Marcum talked about some of his past decisions and his feelings about the athletic program. "I feel real good about our athletic program in general," he said. "Football made me a comeback under Dem Cowan, and basketball is good and will continue to be." However, more funding is needed, as is more space for meeting rooms and weight rooms, Marcum said. ALTHOUGH EVERYONE may have a commitment to athletics in general, he said that money was necessary for a successful program. One of the largest sources of money for the athletic department is the Williams Educational Fund. It began in 1948 as the Outland Club, organized by KU alumni Skip, Dick and O'Neill in 1973 under its present name, and last year, contributed more than $1 million to the athletic program. Marcum said he approved lifting restrictions on how the fund money was spent. It is hard to operate with a large amount of needs need additional fund money, he said. At a University of Kansas Athletic Corporation meeting in December, Marcum recommended a 7 percent salary increase for the coaching staff. He said he thought this was justified, even though the football program showed a deficit last season. "Whatever we can give them, they've done an outstanding job," he said. "The football part is over with and it looks like some of the basketball teams in the conference will do well," he said. Marcum said the University would be receiving money from the Big Eight Conference in February and May. Each conference team receives a portion of the Big Eight participation in and tickets sold at bowl games. One of the decisions Marcum made while athletic director was to fire Bud Moore as head football coach at the end of the 1978 season and to replace him with Don Pambrough. He said he saw Mr. Moore take on a new role added, "Coach Fambrough took over a 1-10 football program," and we can look at the results. Steps added to hall contract procedure By JAN BOUTTE Staff Reporter When early-bird students begin signing 1982-48 contracts next week for their places in KU residence halls, they rely on a new step in the contracting process. The office of residential programs has added steps to the process of contracting rooms that affect both the students and the system and students new to KU. Contracts for the 1982-43 school year will be available in Strong Hall the afternoon of Jan. 30. Fred McElhene, director of the office of residential programs, said yesterday that conference would be accepted beginning Feb. 1. Contracts will be mailed to all those who have completed the first step of the process, which is more complicated for new residents than for current residents. THESE CARDS reserve a place for students, provided they turn in their contracts, with the appropriate deposit, by March 15. McEllenie said his office would continue to accept the intent-to-return cards until Jan. 31. For the current resident, the first step is filling up an intent-to-return form, which was distributed to students who transferred to Lawrence for the spring semester. Trailridge Studios, Apts., Townhouses 2500 W. 6th 843-7333 "If they filled out the intent-to-return form and turn in their contract with the deposit on time, they're in fat city," McElhene said. He said that this process would help protect the current residents' interests. The new student, McElhenise said, must complete an application for a contract and pay a non-returnable $25 application fee. Those who have Hashing Hall continued to be the most expensive residence hall, costing $1.943 if paid in one payment and $1.968 if paid in 11 installments. already completed this step will be mailed a contract Jan. 30.
