Football Tickets on Sale Soon
Football tickets for the 1973 season, which will begin with a home game against Washington State on September 15, will be on sale next week. Student season tickets will cost $6.50 each, and public tickets to individual games will be $7.
John Novotny, athletics business manager, said that the price of KU football tickets was lower than any other Big Eight school's price.
A schedule of when and where to buy tickets will be advertised in the Kansan. There are no advance sales for football tickets, according to Novotny.
Approximately 25,000 season tickets were sold last year and that figure is expected to go up.
Those who are not planning to buy season tickets should plan ahead if they intend to buy individual tickets. Orders will be filled with the best tickets available after season ticketing. The rest of the orders are filled with the best seats available at the time the orders are received.
8 New Tennis Courts Complete Soon; Number of Usable Courts to Rise to 25
The eight new tennis courts south of Robinson Gymnasium were due to be completed in August according to Wayne Ransom, associate professor of physical education.
The new courts give the University a total of 28 usable courts, Ossess said.
"We also have some that are not in real condition, and the dermas have areas we don't know about."
The courts are all-wheather, made of concrete. There was a problem, Osness said, dealing with how much roughness to put on the courts.
"Some players like a rougher surface than others," he said, "and since the courts do wear uncleavely because of where people stand, when a player slides, he doesn't know whether he will come to an abrupt halt or slide smoothly."
"We had an eight of four courts with lighting or eight courts without," Ognissa said. "I'll be able to move."
The lighting situation on the new courts was not the best, he said, but the University's own lighting is very good.
know when we could get money for any more.
"We decided to get as much as we could now, and try for the money for lighting in our building."
Oness said that there was no truth to the rumor that the old courts would be torn down.
These courts cost about $10,000 each to

Oomss praised the construction of the courts as excellent and said that the drainage off the courts was also very good. "There is a real conscious effort to provide recreation for the students," he said.
