Gridders told to drop spring sports
By MIKE FITZGERALD
and KEN STEPHENS
Several University of Kansas football players who are also out for spring sports said Tuesday they had been told to drop their spring sport,
Eddie Lewis, Dayton, Ohio, junior cornerback and a member of the KU's defending national champion 400-yard relay team, said he had been informed by a messenger from Lance Van Zandt, defensive football coach, that he should plan on giving up his duties on the track squad to devote all his time to spring football.
Van Zandt said Tuesday that he hadn't sent a messenger to tell the athletes anything, and that he didn't know of any athlete with athletes going out for two sports.
"I don't know anything about that," he said. "I don't make that kind of decision. I don't make policy decisions—I work for the government and he makes all the decisions of that sort."
Van Zandt said, however, that it wasn't a good idea to be involved in two sports at once, since it is better to be totally dedicated to one sport.
Bud Moore, head football coach, said Van Zandt couldn't have given such an order to tell the players they couldn't participate in any sport except football because Van Zandt could do such a thing without his approval, and he (Moore) didn't give such an order.
"I didn't realize that there was a problem," Moore said. "The people who are out for track are out. (Eddie) Lewis is running track. The one thing we are concerned about is that the players improve in their football game."
Moore said an athlete could definitely be out for football and out for another sport at the same time.
"Van Zandt did not tell me to go and tell the player, he would make sure the word got out." Troutman told them.
However, the messenger, Lary Trowbridge, an equipment manager on the football team, said Van Zandt told him the athletes could only be out for one sport.
Bill Griffin, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore offensive tackle and first baseman, said he had already quit baseball to go out for a job at the University that his football scholarship provided.
"I went in to talk to Moore about a week before baseball practice started," Griffin said. "I had just planned on going out for baseball with Coach Mohe—he and I talked out of it."
"I was really put out. I notified the coach that recruited me for football the year before, Coach (Charlie) McCullers (then KU offensive coordinator), who had told me I could do both when he recruited me, and if see he could help me. He said he couldn't, so I had to quit baseball until Coach Moore agrees his mind, which I don't think will be.
Floyd Temple, KU baseball coach, said that he was aware of the problem and that it
KU counseling service offers aid to students
By SHANNON GREENE Kansan Staff Reporter
For those students who are distraught about their scholastic or vocational futures, there is still hope. And they won't have to face fate or guidance from some divine power.
The University Counseling Service can help them find solutions to their problems. The service is free to all students and faculty members.
Richard Rundquist, chairman of the department of counseling and counselor at the center, said the primary mission of the college is to provide educational and vocational counseling.
In addition, the counseling service deals with a range of other personal problems. Rumination is a problem.
"We help people with their decisions about school, majors and occupations." Rundquist said. "This office is a good starting point to get grinds or a problem."
"People come in with a great variety of problems that concern them," he said. This could be anything from family issues to mental health and girlfriend problems. However, most students come because they are concerned about how they are getting along in school."
When students go to the service they don't have to worry about getting a lecture.
"Advice is against our lexicon," Runquist said. "We help people arrive at their own solutions rather than offer solutions for them." We think the reasons are much more meaningful to them."
The counseling service was started in the '40s by Austin Turney, a professor of educational psychology. Several other universities were also starting their own
counseling services at this time.
About 10 per cent of the student body comes to the counseling service each year, Rundquist said. The counseling staff consisted of four graduate students in the counseling courses half-time in the school of education. The rest of the time they counsel clients. Three advanced doctoral students are enrolled.
A phone call is all that's needed to arrange an appointment.
During the first session, the counselor talks with his client about his problem and together they decide where to go from there. Rundquist said. The client may be asked to take some written tests to determine his main interests or academic attitudes.
Most counseling is done on a one-to-one basis, but in special cases counselors may put some clients together to discuss similar problems, Rundquist said.
Most student problems are resolved in an average of four or five sessions with the counselor. Hundquist said. However, students don't know whether their efforts were beneficial.
"Usually you don't know what happens to students less than 10 years after that, what's their level of the frustrations in this class."
However, once in a while we'll get letters from clients or they will stop by to visit us.
In dealing with personal problems, the counseling service sometimes refers its clients to the mental hygiene clinic at Watkins Memorial Hospital, the State Mental Health Education Program, the Douglas County Mental Health Clinic or other state hospitals.
"I think it is just a lack of communication, that's all," Temple said. "I really don't know much about it. I just found out about it a day or so ago."
was just a lack of communication.
"I plan on meeting with Coach Moore either today or the next day to discuss the matter, and I'm sure we'll work something out, but there's no set process to work this
"Right now there's no problem in the preseason, but there would be in the regular season. I think now they plan to utilize the athletes for hoth sports."
Bob Timmons, KU track coach, said that he was aware of the problem and that he would get together soon with the football team if he said the problem would be easy to resolve.
Nolan Cromwell, a Ransom sophomore who competes in the decathlon on the KU team, said being strong安全 risky on the football team, said he was formed of any such order to quit track. He said he was supposed to have a meeting in two sports with his situation of competing in two sports.
Cromwell said he had discussed the matter with Moore on two or three occasions earlier this year about his participation in two sports.
"The impression I got (then) was that it would be okay." Cromwell said.
Cromwell well, however, that those earlier discussions with Moore carried the notion that decision was temporary and that Cromwell's role was to again as the spring football drills neared.
