TV proceeds place KUAC 'in the black'
Football and basketball revenues are
Football and basketball revenues are down and alumni contributions to the athletic department are under budget by $100,000, but athletic department officials told the KU Athletic Corporation board yesterday that the athletic department would be in the black at the end of the fiscal year.
John Patterson, KU comptroller, said receipts for fiscal 1983 were expected to be $38,675 more than originally projected. The expected surplus is due primarily to increased television revenue.
TELEVISION revenue is expected to be $220,000 more than anticipated when the budget was created last spring.
Del Shankel, acting athletic director, said television income put the athletic department in better financial shape than last winter, when he also was acting athletic director and had to make cutbacks to keep the budget balanced.
"Last year we were looking at a $100,000 deficit, but this year we will have a balanced budget," he said.
THREE OTHER major sources of income will be less than expected, Patterson said.
He said actual alumni contributions to the athletic department would be $1.3 million.
Basketball revenue is $55,000 below estimates because 2,600 fewer student season tickets were sold than expected, he said. And football income is $110,000 less than expected because of a decline in attendance.
In other business, the board was told that KU had not received any new information about a National Collegeategist in preliminary inquiry into KU athletics.
KU received a letter from the NCAA last March informing the athletic department that the NCAA had begun an inquiry.

SUA's deficit $16,000; budget allows for more

According to SUA budget figures, the organization's deficit this year is more than $16,000, three times greater than this time last year.

Student Union Activities is having a bad year. No, make that a good year.
But because SUA's function is to provide service, events and other benefits for students, the deficit is not the primary concern, Katherine Giele, director of SUA, said recently. In fact, the SUA budget, which is a part of the Kansas Union budget, allows for a deficit this year of more than $2,000, or 9 percent more than last year.
AT LEAST one SUA official expressed concern, however, at the size of the current deficit and the fact it could have later in the fiscal year.
"We're going to have to start watching our step," said Bruce Epperson, SUA outdoor recreation chairman. "The problem so far has been bid luck — the depressed conditions and the lack of concerts."
He speculated that some promoters had considered University concerts a bigger risk than conventional concert halls during dead seasons. But he has made it more difficult that usual to have concerts on campus.
Steve Ghmirley, SUA special events chairman, said the main reason they had not been successful
"We just lost the Go-Go for Allen Field House," he said. "We were told there was basketball practice."
in getting concerts at the University was that no facilities were available.
REVENUE FROM that concert, which would have been Feb. 3, along with revenue from a Crosby, Stills and Nash concert, another show that never was, would have helped救 SuA's UAs, Ghosthorn said.
Gilee defended the deficit, saying that in some departments, greater expenditures reflected programs that became active this year.
"I would say we've lost $8,000 to $10,000 without those two shows," he said.
For example, SUA has spent $3.400 on forums than it had last year at this time. But the reason is that in the number of forums, she said.
SHE SAID the budget needed to be viewed from a more positive angle than just looking at how the dollars and cents stacked up.
"Spending only $20 on forums isn't my idea of a better year," Giele said.
One department that has been off to a slow start this year is SUA films, which had a $3,000 deficit this fall.
"We're trying to pick up a bit," said Mike Gebert, SUA films chairman.
He said SUA was adding some films to its lineup to try to boost attendance **including "Silver Age" movies**, she shown this weekend at the Union
Profs, officer plead not guilty to charges of hunting illegally
Staff Reporter
By CAROL LICHTI
Two University of Kansas professors and a Lawrence policeman pleaded not guilty yesterday in McCloud County District Court to charges filed in connection with the Nov. 13 shooting of a deer.
Peter Casagrande, professor of English, Gayland Richardson, associate professor of architecture and urban design, and John W. Shepard III, Lawrence police officer, pleaded not guilty along with five other Lawrence residents, said John Laman, assistant district attorney of McCloud County.
THE NINE MEN, who were on a peasant hunting trip, were each charged with one count of illegally hunting a deer and criminal trespass.
Shepard was charged with an additional count of not investigating and
reporting a Kansas Fish and Game violation, which is required by state law.
Another Lawrence man, Albert Shepard, pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor charges yesterday. Laman Chowdhury pleaded guilty to 24 after a pre-sequence investigation.
Another Lawrence man, Bruce A. Unfried, also pleaded not guilty, as did Robert W. Sinclair, Stanley Shepard, and Ivan L. Kelley Jr., all of Lawrence.
Laman said state game laws prohibited hunting or taking a deer out of season.
TRIALS FOR the eight Lawrence men who pleaded not guilty have not been scheduled, Laman said.
Witnesses reported the incident to fish and game officials and the McCloud County Sheriff Department, Laman said.
When officials arrived on the scene northeast of Milvonta, near the Cloud-Clay county line, Llanan said the nine charged in the case were there with the dead deer on private land without permission of the landowner.
Lawrence Police Sgt. Larry Loveland said the department would not take any action until after the court system inspected Shepard's guilt or innocence.
IF OFFICER Shepard is found innocent, Loveland said, no action will be taken. But he did not say what would be done if Shepard was found guilty.
Casagrade refused to comment until he had decided what he was going to do about the incident and who would represent him in court.
Richardson said that he and Casagrande did not do anything wrong, but
he was very proud.
Dispute delays arrival of ACT forms
The office of student financial aid may receive its delayed American College Testing Program aid forms this month, Jennifer director of the school's western wisteria.
The forms, which usually are available midsemester, were delayed because of a legal dispute between the U.S. Department of Education and the National Coalition of Independent College and University Students.
The student lobby group challenged the legality of the processing fees charged to federal aid applicants last
The group contends that students applying for federal aid only should not be charged a processing fee for using ACT and CSS forms.
year for applications printed and processed by private companies, such as ACT and the College Scholarship Service under a government contract.
Although the legal dispute has not been settled, ACT has decided to print the 1983-84 forms, Rogers said.
THE FEDERAL government prints a similar application for which there is no processing fee.
A cover sheet will be attached to the forms explaining to individuals that if they are applying for federal aid, they do not have to file and pay for ACT processing to be considered for the aid, Rogers said.
He said the University would be using the ACT forms next year because of the student data information it requires, he said.
HOWEVER, the schools to which the individuals are applying may need additional data that would require the use of the ACT or CSS forms, he said.
