Gorgers split sides at banana splits tilt
Despite 95-degree heat and a crowd of curious onlookers, 18 people crammed bananas, ice cream and chocolate syrup down their throats Saturday afternoon. They kept their fingers, ignoring the streams of melted ice cream that dripped down their chins.
Their objective? To win the Dairy Queen banana split-eating contest and the $50 first prize.
According to Ken Murphy, local Dairy Queen manager, the Dairy Queens in this area are holding contests to try to break the record. One man who ate 15 banana splits in 30 minutes.
The local winner, James Kruger,
predicts that the team will win, even
only six games and two bites of a seventh.

The $25 second prize went to Dale
Williams, Lawrence, who ate six.
There was a race to see which contestant could finish a banana split first, or as one bystander called it, "a sudden barf catoff" to determine who would get third place.
Two contestants tied for third place by eating five.
Tony Davis, Lawrence, won by eating his banana split in less than 15 seconds.
The rules of the contest were that banana splits could be eaten only with plastic spoons or hands, that contestants couldn't spill or dump any out and couldn't vomit for at least 10 minutes, and that there had to be enough bananas to each dish if the banana splits was to count.
Murphy told contestants that each banana split weighed exactly fourteen and one-half ounces and that each banana had been preweighed to three and one-half ounces.
The contestants gave several reasons for entering the contest.
Kruger entered to win the prize money. While he was forcing his sixth banana split down his threat, he said to Murphy, "Show me that $50—it'll help."
Doris Schurle, Green junior, one of two women in the contest, said she didn't think she had a chance of winning the prize money.
"I just entered to see how many I could be the said." I figured I could get my money"
Although much more petite than her fellow competitors, Schurle held her own against the men, eating four banana splits and part of a fifth.
Several other contestants said they entered because they thought they could eat at least four in 30 minutes. Since the entry fee was $4, the banana split would only cost about 62 cents.

the winner.
McMillion said he had eaten six in 15 minutes but got bit on the seventh because
When Murphy told him contestants were allowed to drink only water, Kruger asked, "Well, can I look at the bottle for moral support?"
Kruger brought along his own moss kit, consisting of a wet awel, a towel, a pan, and a dish.
Williams, the second place winner, ate his bananas first. He then set the dishes on the ground, let the ice cream melt and drank the liquid.
Kruger will compete with other area rangers in the tournament. The Cater Center, Kansas City, Ms. on July 4.
The date scheduled for the arrival of the new computer or computers for the University of Kansas is about one year away, Ron Hamilton, comptroller and member of the administrative specifications committee, said Friday.
Computer system one year away
The administrative specifications committee is concerned with enrollment, training and evaluation. Another committee, the instruction and resources administrative committee, is mainly concerned with the individual education needs of departments within the University.
Jerry Magnuson; another member of the committee, said, "The committee is trying to complete the specifications, which it has done. The goal they are ready to be to go to Tepoka tomorrow."
The University will evaluate the bids, examining the software, which is the written set of codes that instructs the computer to develop the software, to see that they meet specifications.
The committee should recommend computer vendors to the University and state sometime in March 1976, Magnuson said.
April 1, 1976, is the tentative data set for the final decision in selecting the vendors, he said.
Computer vendors will submit bids on the
By May 1, 1976, negotiations with the vendor or vendors concerning the contractual agreements should be completed, Gil Dyck, director of admissions and records and head of the administrative specifications committee, said.
Hamilton said, 'even after the computer arrives, it's going to be awhile before we get a result.'
Dyck said the amount of time necessary to make the installation would depend on the size of the room.
Some computer companies already have built the hardware, he said. Others will build the computers as they are being installed.
Magnuson said the hardware should be installed on the administrative computer about four months after the vendor is selected, which should be in April. 1976
During that time, an extensive amount of training of programmers, analysts and operators.
Dyck said the specifications committee would know yet whether the University would accept them.

About two dozen Jews had waited at a Moscow apartment for two hours, hoping that at least some of the senators would visit them there.
