Pittsburgh Gobblebush Stargell and Madlock immediately denied the allegations. Renfro indicated he would call both of them as witnesses in hopes of impeaching Parker's and Berra's testimony. Diamond said, however, that "collateral matters" not pertaining to the charges against Strong could not be introduced by the defense solely in hopes of impeaching prosecution witnesses. Asked if Diamond's warning had changed his plans, Renfro replied. "Be here tomorrow at 9:36. There's always another way to skin a cat."

KU crew loses $4,000; 170 athletes seek work By Heather Fritz By Heather Fritz Of the Kansan sports staff Brandt and Libby Elliott, women's crew team coach, both said the question floating around the boathouse was why would an organization as large as the ROTC need to work parking? But according to the Recondo Organization's faculty adviser, Major Charles Smith, the group doesn't receive money from the government. Services offered: 170 strong athletes for hire. Willing to work to save our sport. Brandt said, "We're just going to have to work that much harder. It puts us in a bind. We just couldn't go any lower than the bid we put in." You haven't seen that advertisement yet, but you may soon. The Kansas crew team recently lost about $4,000 in much-needed revenue when it lost its bid to handle parking at football and basketball games. The crew team was underbid by the Recordo Organization, a group of KU Army ROTC students that primarily does field training. According to the men's crew team captain, David Brandt, the crew team's bid to handle parking was $3.15 per hour, and the Recondo Organization's bid was $3 per hour. University parking director Donald Kearns said that groups to work parking were chosen on the basis of sealed bids and the number of people the group could supply. Cliff Elliott, coach of the crew team, said the team had an annual budget of about $50,000. Last year, $19,000 was raised by team members through dues of $30 a semester, working parking and concessions at football and basketball games and working at the Renaissance Festival. This year the team opted to pass up an estimated $6,000 in revenue from working at the Renaissance Festival in order to spend more time training, bringing its total lost income to $10,000. "They have to raise money just like any other student group," he said. said Cliff Elliott said the first expense to be cut would be new equipment, followed by trimming an already lean operating budget and his own salary.
