year. We came out of the year with a feeling of unity, which Chancellor Dykes has noted.
Nichols compared the students and faculty of 50 years ago with those of today and concluded that there had been a significant improvement in both.
NICHOLS GREW serious as he speculated on the future of KU.
"A decline in the birth rate is going to affect our enrollment in the coming years," he said. "Also, the growth of the community colleges will affect our enrollment. They're going to take a higher percentage of freshmen because it costs so much to go to college. I think these persons who are applying for increased tuition are wrong."
Nichols said the public was questioning the value of higher education.
"In fact, I'm not sure I could have made it as a student here had I come today," said Nichols, secretary of the Phi Beta Kappa chapter for 42 years.

secret societies. He added that most Greeks weren't involved in Pach and that they probably didn't know of it or its activities until the last few weeks.
In recent years Pach has paid for a number of advertisements in the Jayhawk yearbook. In these ads, the Jayhawk帕萨米ac has stated its aims and purposes.
"Pachacahua isn't an organization that exerts its power through coercion or force, but instead is a society which, because of the quality of its members, believes its aims can be realized through influence and persuasion.
However, according to Dennis Mullen, Shawnee senior and president of Tau Kappa Epsilon, Pachacumac does have a great interest especially in the Interfraternity Council.
"The Society of Pachacamac, although unknown to most persons on campus, plays an active, positive role in student life and encourages students to read ..." an in the 1967 *Jdaykwaker* book.
"SOME MEMBERS of the Interfraternity Council are involved in Pachacamac from the top level on down," he said, "and they have great influence on fraternity affairs."
"There is today no affiliation or undue concern with campus politics, the society and government."
Mullen said Pachacamac was a detriment to the fraternity system.
"Secret societies are a thing of the past," he said, "and I see no need for an underground group to accomplish social and political objectives.
Another past member of the IFC said the first time he heard of Pacaacanac, secret societies and their activities was when he attended IFC meetings.
Roads Stevens, Garnett sophomore and member of Beta Theta Pi fraternity, said Pachacamac was a potentially dangerous condition that should be brought out into the open.
"Pach is an organization that seemingly wants to take care of us," Stevens said, "but I consider this an insult to the intelligence of the people, especially when an organization thinks it knows how to take care of us better than we ourselves.
The next year, Pach turned to campus politics and started to build a dynasty of political power and influence that was to last for the next 42 years.
SOME PEOPLE expressed the opinion that Pach was only an elusive ghost being chased by a bunch of witch hunters, but there are also other realities that businesses were matters of historical record.
On Oct. 26, 1912, the Society of the Inner Circle of Pachacamac was founded as a student political party supporting William Howard Taft for the presidency of the United States. Taft was the Republican candidate.

Money Woes Hit KU Athletics
Bv BILL WILLETS
Athletics at the University of Kansas is in such poor financial shape that the Kansas Board of Reegents is requesting supplementary money for it from the Kansas Legislature.
And if it hadn't been for income from bowl games in which other Big Eight football teams played the two years while KU was on probation, the Athletic Corporation would be in worse shape.
As it is, the corporation is spending more money than it is making, charges Robert Sterling, a member of the Athletic Board and professor of business at KU. Some regents and University officials are especially concerned about the situation because they believe the success of the university has a positive impact on financial support for the rest of the University.
Faulty accounting procedures.
The athletic budget is divided into a plant fund and an operating fund. The plant fund contains all payments for the team, including the Tartan Turf football field and the stadium expansion. The money to pay these debts comes from the operating fund. If the two funds were consolidated, says Comptroller Ron Clementi, the budget would reflect an overall profit.
Even top officials of the Athletic Corporation admit that KU's finances are on shaky grounds. In contrast to Sterling, however, they assert that cost controls have been implemented and campus is now on an upward surge.
Of the Varsity Sports at KU, Only Basketball...
There are any number of explanations for the financial troubles. Here are the most prominent:
Seating problems. The football program at KU pays the bills for other sports in the athletic program. And, says John Novotny, assistant athletic director and business man-owner of the 2010 season tickets could be said for football if more student seating areas were available.
Losing teams. Winning is the most important factor in a financially successful athletic program. But beware of a culture where the ball team since 1968, attendance and profits have been down. John Eberhardt, Wichita attorney and chairwoman of the National Athletic Association, however, that this year's 7-3-1 team is good enough to make money.
Non-revenue sports. All sports but football and basketball are operated with the profits from football. One member of the Athletic Board, Thomas Weiss, professor of economics, says minor sports should be eliminated. Novimov acknowledges the burden but advocates keeping them as part of a "well-rounded sports philosophy."
It is here that officials of the Athletic Department believe KU should have help from the Kansas Legislature.
Rising costs. The athletic program, like other businesses, is feeling the pinch of the rising costs of food, medical services, treatment and equipment. But increases in tuition and fees have the greatest impact on athletics. Of the department's $540,000 annual expenditures, $200,000 are for tuition and fees.
The Kansas Board of Regents proposed in September that the legislature provide $775,000 to the six Kansas colleges and universities. The proposal included $190,000 for the athletic departments to the Athletic Department in the form of tuition and fees waivers for varsity athletes.
State Budget Director James Bibb last month deleted the entire proposal from his recommendations to Gov. Robert B. Docking.
Moreover, Kansas legislators were cool to the proposal, and even KU Athletic Director Clyde Walker was
pessimistic about its chances. Although tuition waivers are granted at such Big Eight schools as Iowa State University and the University of Colorado, such a proposal is unprecedented in Kansas.
The $2.3 million budget of the athletic program is based on income from ticket sales, grants and contributions to the KU Endowment Association and from the student activity fee. With exceptions for faculty, students in the state for courses they teach, coaches' salaries are paid out of this budget. Another funding alternative favored by many regions would have to be paid out of the state's salaries be paid with state monies.
Walker says the amount of projected alumni contributions for this year had been $196,000. His goal, he says, is to raise an amount equal to what is spent on scholarships, roughly $500,000.
"There's no question that a winning team helps contributions," says Novotny. "It's no accident that $9 million was raised in one year—the year we went to the Orange Bowl (1969)."
Novtay says it would be fatal to cut back on expenses because "when you decrease expenditures you decrease your quality."
The Athletic Department receives the bulk of its donations through the efforts of Lawrence businessman and Athletic Board member Skipper Williams, who in 1949 started what is now the John F. Outland Scholarship Fund and since then has voluntarily directed annual fund drives.
Another source of income is a $2 million donation two and a half years ago from the will of the late James Davis, Wichita owlman This fund is used for both athletic and academic scholarships. According to Novotny, Mr. Davis seldom missed a football game.
And that is precisely why inter-
Walker, who inherited an operating deficit of $237,790 when he came to KU last summer, says there is "a great amount of untapped potential" in alumni contributions. Novotny agrees.
In 1973, coaches 'salaries amounted to $207,929 in football and $56,620 in basketball.
"This is where we can make a real stab at raising additional money," he says.
"There are any number of people who support KU who would not do so if there was no football team."
... and Football Make Enough at the Gate to Support Themselves

“It’s a fascinating thing, but one of the realities of our society,” he says. “There are any number of people who support KU who would not do so if there was no football team.”
Heller, a part-time fund-raiser, says contributions have been easier for him to solicit after KU victories.
Francis Heller, professor of law and political science, agrees that there is a high correlation between teaming teams and alumni contributions.
Sterling, however, says athletics don't really help the University financially because most contributions remain with the Athletic Corpora-
"One thing you must look for," Sterling says, "is that nothing from the Athletic Corporation spills over into the University. If we eliminated it, then we would down the drain, but it wouldn't hurt the department of English one bit."
"For every athletic director who says alumi support would go to hell if we eliminated athletics, you have someone like the president of Bos-Santo Texas. " You know Texas does not have a self-supporting athletic program."
"If we had no need to bring guests to the University, if it had all the money it needed, then there would be no need for athletics," he says.
Sterling says the University would change little at all without an athletic program.
The Malls Shopping Center
"The University of Chicago has managed to survive for a number of years without a good athletic prologue. The state university system of New York, which is clearly the best educational program in the nation, has survived."
PIONEER TEAC
According to Eberhardt, athletic events more than any other thing bring alumni back to the campus.
"Athletics tend to produce more good and will endow money than any other thing the school does," he said. "It is important that at the time of the Program for Progress when the University considered employing a firm from Pittsburg, Arkansas, said the No. 1 interest in the University was its athletic program."
collegiate athletics are necessary Novotny says.
