The Kansas men's basketball team had to feel the pressure last year when it took on first-place Oklahoma on Feb. 24 in an important Big Eight Conference game.
Few fans cheer 'Hawks
The Jayhawks upset Wayman Tisdale and the Sooners 82-76 before a crowd of 14,569 in Allen Field House, a national television audience. The game long will be remembered by KU fans as the highlight of the men's 1884-85 season.
What won't be remembered from that Saturday afternoon is that a double-header was held at Allen Field House.
Half an hour after the men's victory, the Kansas women's team played Oklahoma in a game of similar importance. Like the men, the women's team was trying to upset the first-place Sooners. But unlike the men, the women didn't have the support of a sellout crowd or the excitement of being nationally televised.
After the men's victory, NBC announcers Dick Enberg and Al McGüirn signed a few autographs and left. Most of the press, which had required four extra tables because of the magnitude of the first game, packed up and left. Only a gathering of 1,000 fans stayed to watch the second game. The noise level in the arena was similar to a Tuesday morning practice as the game went down to the wire. Kansas lost 78-77.
It wasn't as if the women's team was marketing an inferior product. It boasted Vickie Adkins, an All-America candidate, and a team contending for the conference title. Head coach Marian Washington was respected throughout the nation. She had built a ten-not program that
produced the leading scorer in the history of women's basketball, Lynette Woodard.
Woodard, a four-time All-American from 1977-1981, was on the sidelines as a KU assistant coach before the Oklahoma game as over 13,000 people left the field house.
Lisa Dougherty, a sophomore guard for the Jawhacks, said coming out of the dressing room and seeing a full house would have given the players a big boost, once they got over the shock.
"I'd probably have a heart attack," Dougherty said.
Washington said she didn't like to see situations like the Oklahoma double-header.
Kansas has had a women's basketball program since 1988, but drew only 10,500 fans in 11 home games last season. The men's team drew 220,610 in attendance in 16 home games.
"It's a psychological' teldow." Washington said. "We really don't want our young players to have to experience that kind of situation too often."
On Feb. 3 last year, the Iowa women's basketball team proved that the right promotions and circumstances could draw a crowd to a women's game. 22,157 fans attended the Hawkeyes' Big Ten Conference game against Ohio State.
"It's been difficult for me, and from my position, it has been difficult to find funding." Washington said. "But I think everyone is aware that promoting women's sports is necessary."
Washington said other teams would like to emulate the Iowa situation, but the problem was obtaining the money for promotions.
The total budget for the men's basketball team in 1984-85 was
budget was $193,640. Of the total athletic budget of $5,692,929,
women's athletics received $444,940.
"I think that the challenges women face today, whether it's in athletics or in any other field, is facing a certain attitude," Washington said. "That attitude in many cases is looking at women as inferiors. That attitude is changing, but until it changes completely, they'll be ongoing challenges for women."
Title IX of the Education Amendment of 1972 did a lot for the advancement of women's sports, but Title IX recently has been under attack.
Under the title, no person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from any program at an institution receiving federal financial assistance. After a court decision last summer, Title IX was interpreted to mean that only the program that directly received federal money must guarantee equal acceptance of women.
Renate Mai-Dalton, associate professor of business and a member of the Kansas athletic board, said lack of fan support and unequal treatment could discourage women athletes.
"A lot of student athletes get hurt emotionally about what other people see as small things," Mai-Dalton said. "The problem is the manner of priorities and the lack of understanding of what can be done, the vision. They need the mindset that women's athletic programs can be successful.
"Iimagine playing for the women's basketball team in a double-header behind the men's team and the minute you get up, there's a huge exodus of people. It affects the morale and in turn, it affects the performance. If you're a woman athlete, you've got to draw one conclusion — we're probably not as important as

Watkins said they had asked KDHE to check the site because they didn't want animals becoming sick from the remains of the landfill.
Lawrence applied for and received a grant of $4,500 from the Nongame Wildlife Tax Checkoff Program through the Kansas Fish and Game Commission to revegetate the landfill and create a wildlife area.
The purpose for the project according to the official plan is to establish a permanent wildlife habitat with limited recreational use. The plan divides the landfill into three 30-acre compartments.
Six native grasses and 13 types of trees and shrubs will be planted, Watkins said, because "the more diversity you have, the more diverse wildlife population you'll have. This was set up so that hopefully we could get the maximum number and diversity possible in an area.
Watkins didn't foresee a problem with overpopulation in the area after the grasses came of age. "Once this
area gets fairly well to its maximum capacity with animals, they're going to move on because only five or six miles away you can find some excellent habitat up at Perry Lake."
The planting of two of the three native grass compartments and 4,100 trees and shrubs in the spring two years ago initiated the first phase.
"Strips of brome grass were planted in front of the brush to protect them and act as a fire break when the compartments were burned," Watkins said. "You would only burn one of these 30-acre compartments at once," he said. "We have had the extension specialist out to make sure that we wouldn't start a subsurface fire. We haven't burned them yet because the grass wasn't mature enough last year. But this spring I'm sure that we will burn if the weather conditions are right."
Watkins added, "The nice thing about it is it's relatively low-maintenance. We'd burn the native grass once a year or hay it if we find
out there's a problem with burning."
George Osborne, superintendent of city parks and forestry, said he had written a plan nearly 15 years ago for the landfill area to become a community forest which would have had lower maintenance because it would have allowed almost the entire field to grow back naturally.
Low maintenance seems to be the key. The less maintenance there is, the lower the cost.
Both Watkins and Osborne agree that the site will require little maintenance once completed. Norm, who considers only the planting, trees, and shrubs, said he thought that the site was 90 percent finished.
Watkins and DeVictor said they thought it would take longer. Watkins said that in a year most of the work would be done with the grasses and trees and that he hoped that it would be 95 percent completed in three to four years.
years to get a good stand, so if we plant now it'll probably be another three to four years before it's open to the public and you can identify all the grasses real well and the trees and shrubs are far enough along that they wouldn't be trampled by the people." Watkins said.
"Native grass takes at least four
For the project to be a total success, Watkins and DeVictor would like to see the refuge be used as an outdoor classroom area. Watkins says that this is a long-term goal.
John Saunders, a biology teacher at Central Junior High School, said he would like to take classes to the refuge when it's completed. He said the trips would aid in teaching taxonomy, vocabulary and taxonomy, the science of classifying organisms into categories based on shared characteristics.
"It would be good for some kids to get out in the open rather than reading about it in a textbook," he said.

Watkins also cited the unusual site
"It's actually going to add to the wildlife habitat," he said. "There's a big area of cattails that has steeped low enough that there's standing water which will be an excellent area for shore birds."
The landfill turned wildlife refuge is already and running.
of the landfill as an advantage over other locations. As the refuse settles, the ground sinks in places.
"This spring, the number of songbirds was tremendous," Watkins said. He recently saw deer prints in the area and patches of grass that had served as bedding.

Watkins said that if left to natural succession, the landfill would take 200 to 300 years to reach the point it was at before the landfill existed which still would not have the diversity it has now.
DeVictor summed it up. "We're planting the seed — that's it. It's going to be there for folks to use."
