No '75 Scholarships For Women Athletes
By CLARK CASE and CARL YOUNG Kansan Staff Reporte
No athletic scholarships will be offered to women this year, but some may be offered by the end of next year, according to Marian Eberhardt, director of intercollegiate athletics.
Washington was selected in June to direct women's athletics at the University of Kansas.
Salaries, supplies, equipment and travel expenses will claim the entire $120,000 budget for this year's women's athletic program, she said recently. Even with the increase in funding, that the women's program can offer coaches will be very limited, Washington said.
*Scholarships will have to wait this year
we develop a program of obtaining
money from our students.*
Much of the money for men's athletic scholarships comes from sources outside the university.
The goals of the women's program for this year will be to provide evidence and to improve the
The women's athletic movement has grown because of greater interest by women in developing physically, she said, and because they have been able to shake off the stigma that used to make outcasts of women athletes.
quality of the coaching staff, Washington said.
*Coaches cannot recruit, and I am still trying to determine whether athletic discipline is the answer.*
"I don't think women are interested in being a threat to men," she said. "I think that we are basically interested in having the opportunity to develop. In order to do this, of course, we have to have the necessary funding."
The Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) recently changed its rules banning scholarships for women. It still has restrictions against recruiting.
Because of the past AIAW rules, women's athletic programs that offered scholarship could only compete in Amateur Athletic Union meets. Now, schools that offer athletic scholarships to women can compete in intercollege meet if they wish.

Football Ticket Is $15, Basketball Costs $13
By STEVEN LEWIS Kansan Staff Reporter
Student prices for University of Kansas football and basketball season tickets this year will be more than twice what they were last year.
A student football season ticket is $15 and a basketball ticket is $13. However, a combination football-basketball season ticket will entail enrollment at Allen Field House for $25.
The combination season ticket, which is new to KU, was a result of a compromise last spring between the Student Senate and the Athletic Corporation.
Last year, football season tickets were
wired and basketball season tickets were
$50.
The increase in student ticket prices followed a Student Senate vote April 10 to reduce the Athletic Corporation's student membership from $14,900 to $39,500 for this fiscal year.
Athletic Director Clyde Walker immediately announced that student season football and basketball tickets would be raised to $15 each. Soon afterwards, a team of 40 players would buy reduced basketball season ticket prices to $13 but left football prices at $15.
The Student Senate reacted by passing a resolution 80 to 1, demanding that season be reduced.
At an Athletic Board meeting on May 25, after weeks of heated controversy, which included demands for the athletic director's response and combined ticket promise was reached.
"I still wish that the prices would be lower," John Beinser, student body president, said earlier this summer. "I think we can get to the bottom and still not hurt the Athletic Corporation."
Beisner said that because of the higher teacher price fewer students would purchase the textbook.
"If you look at the past record when smaller increases of 50 cents or $1 were made," Beisner said, "there was a significant decrease in the number of tickets sold, and I think it will show again this year."
Beiser criticized the Athletic Corporation for overspending.
"I think cutbacks in certain areas or failures to advance funding in certain areas could be made without really harming the Athletic Corporation," Beiser said. "I start taking some stands about how big our athletic program is going to become."
The Athletic Corporation has accumulated a deficit of $25,700 from fiscal 1971, 1972 and 1973. According to Doug Messer, business manager for the Athletic Corporation, preliminary fiscal 1974 figures indicate that the Athletic Corporation broke
Beiser aluded to a criticism that has been made by others, such as Athletic Board member Thomas Weiss, associate professor of economics, who has accused Walker of overspending on nonrevenue sports, such as tennis, baseball and track.
Messer said breaking even was important because 70 per cent of the major college athletic departments were in the red in fiscal 174.
However, in a Kansan interview in January, long before the Student Senate cut the Athletic Corporation's activity fee allocation, Walker was reported to have said that an increase in ticket prices probably would be counterproductive.
Asked whether he thought the increase in student ticket prices would result in a ticket tax? No. Qual question.
Nevertheless, compared to student

State University, KU prices are
The schools that have produced the best women's teams in the past have been those that have recognized the value of women's scholarships, Washington said. Most of the better schools for women's sports have been small.
A season football ticket costs K-State students $21 and a season basketball ticket costs $15. However, the K-State athletic department will receive $30,000 less from student activity fees than the KU Athletic Corporation.
To build and maintain a program that would consistently produce nationally prominent women's teams at KU, the college would have to be increased, Washington said.
"I don't want to jump ahead too fast, what we have." We are appreciative of what we have.
Although no scholarships will be given
the students who have entered
interested should try for the材
"We want women to know that it is not a teammate," and "no team is determined about time."
Try out dates will be posted during enrolment, and publicity for the women's program will be handled through the office of Don Baker, sports information director.
KU will have one of the largest budgets for women's athletics in the country, and KU will be one of the leaders in that area. A student is important to the student support is important, she said.
"I think that the program should provide adequately for the needs of our women," she said. "We are not saying that we need to match dollar for dollar with the men's program."
"I will be doing a lot of speaking to students, but the idea in essence is to let students know that this is their athletic program."
Some of the women's teams will have to improve greatly before they can compete well nationally and internationally, Washington said.
"We have had a good program in the past," she said, "but now I want to find out what has happened."
Seven of the University's nine women's teams have been outstanding on state, national and international levels. One of the two teams that was not outstanding this year was the women's swimming team, which was in its first season, she said.
The tennis team finished 28th out of the 53 teams at a summer AIAW tennis meet. Washington said this was not really a poor showing. Most of the women on the team were freshmen and they did better than had been expected.
The volleyball team has been to national teams since the 1980s and is sistently, Washington said. The softball team placed fourth in national's this year and was named for each two girls to national competition.
There was no national championship for women's hockey. However, the hockey team won the state meet. The basketball team won the state championship by one point.
The gymnastics team had a poor season, washington said a new coach, K Snow, manager of the gym.
The women's program has the potential to have more nationally outstanding teams, but it will take time and the full support of the University, Washington said.

Jaynes' Successor Faces Critical Eyes
By MIKE FITZGERALD
By MIKE FITZGERALD Kansas Sports Reporter
The first University of Kansas football game isn't until Sept. 14, if kU had to play tomorrow, Coach Dou Fambrough start Scott McMichael at quarterback
McMichael, a 6' 3", 187-pound junior from Shawnee Mission, is in contention for the spot of quarterback with Tom Krautti, 6'179-pound Leavenworth sophomore; Jud Mitchell, 6'4"; 202-pound Junior tiger; Todd McMullen, 5'10"; 172-pound Mission fighter; Mike Riese, 6'4"; and senior; Mike Weatherford, 6'1"; 203-pound Liberal sophomore.
No runs the veer (offense) real well",
said Fambrough recently. "But his problem, and the problem of the rest of our
team, is that the team doesn't have
hasn't played a down of college football."
Fambrough said it took a special breed of person to walk onto a field without any help. He would tell the teacher so and said the ability of a quarterback wasn't enough in itself to insure success in a game situation. He said a quarterback had to go to the best of his best and try to overcome his mistakes.
Although he's a junior, McMichael has
three full seasons of eligibility remaining.
He was sidelinesl last year with a broken collar bone and was red shrifted for the season. The break is completely healed, but McMichael missed out on a year's exit. That doesn't seem to bother him, however.
There will be additional pressure on the quarterback besides inexperience. Fans might expect more out of this year's quarterback than is possible because his
predecessor was David Jaynes. Kansas is also coming off a winning season and fans are cheering.
"I always go with one quarterback," he said.
"I don't think the winning season will hurt"
"Fambridge said. 'We got it hard'
"But we did not."
"The lack of experience shouldn't affect
your job. He's got an unusual
amount of police and security."
