Record enrollment closes courses
By AUSON YOUNG

Although every student who participated in main enrollment for the spring semester received a complete schedule, students who still must enroll in January may not get into the classes they need, KU officials said recently.
Freshmen and sophomores probably will face many closed classes when they go to the enrollment center in the east wing of Strong Hall, the officials said this week.
The officials blamed anticipated problems on this semester's record enrollment. In addition, the state's fiscal problems and a planned 2.3 percent cut in KU's budget for academic programs may exacerbate the problem.
"It's going to be difficult to help those students," Gary Thompson, director of student records, said
yesterday. "Enrollment is like a store going out of business. The later you shop, the less there is left on the shelf."
Robert Lineberry, dean of liberal arts and sciences, said classes filled much earlier this year than in past years because of the increased number of students enrolled at the University.
"There aren't anymore slots in key areas." Lineberry said.
About 250 courses were full at the end of main enrollment last week, including primary courses such as SPAN 104 and 105, GERM 104, ECON 104 and JOUR 240.
Lineberry said space also was tight in upper-level courses.
Additionally, KU officials Tuesday announced that proposed state budget cuts had forced the University to cut about $200,000 worth of spring
semester classes, or about 100 sections.
Robert Cobb, executive vice chancellor, said students whose spring semester classes might be affected by the cuts would be notified by the University before Jan. 1.
Even without the loss of 100 classes, students who enrolled last month for the spring semester experienced problems.
About 1,300 students participated in a "completion enrollment" March 25, because they didn't receive full schedules on their first trip to the enrollment center.
The students stood in a line that at times went as far back as the Strong Hall rotunda and the office of student records, in Strong's west wing.

Bush says mistakes from Iran arms deal damaged credibility
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Vice President George Bush, breaking a monthlong silence, said yesterday that the administration's credibility had been damaged by mistakes in carrying out a covert arms deal with Iran.
But he supported President Reagan's decision to open the door to "moderate" elements in the revolutions of the National Security Council, Bush reiterated Reagan's explanation that the United States was trying to approach moderate elements in Iran who might succeed the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
Praising Reagan for taking fast action to investigate the spreading scandal, Bush predicted, "As the various investigations proceed." I

Danny Manning is ready to set the record straight. He wants to redeem himself in the eyes of the country — and he is off to a good start.
Name an award or accolade in college basketball and Manning has been associated with it.
He was selected second-team All-American last season by the Associated Press, United Press International, United States Basketball Writers' Association and the National Association of Basketball Coaches. He was the Big Eight Conference's player of the year, the Big Eight Tournament's Most Valuable Player and the NCAA Midwest Regional's MVP, as well as being a finalist for the Wooden and Naimsih Awards, given annually to the top collegiate player.
He was also on the UPI's all-Big Eight defensive team, and this year, Manning is on almost every preseason All-America team.
Despite his success and the attention he has received, fans across the country remember the last game they saw Manning and the Jayhawks play last year — the 71-67 loss to Duke in the Final Four in Dallas.
Manning spent most of the game on the bench and had just
four points before fouling out.
Manning has not looked at the films of the Duke loss, nor does he intend to, and Brown has not talked to him about the game. Manning is concerned only with the present.
No longer is the 6-foot-11 junior in the shadows of Greg Dreiling, Ron Kellogg and Calvin Thompson. Manning now is the Javahkws 'centerpiece.
"I just played terribly," he said. "It was my worst game ever."
"Danny was fouled on every play," Brown said. "Nobody, not even Larry Bird, could have played well under those circumstances."
Last season, Manning led the Jayhawks in scoring with a 16.7 point-per-game average. He was the team leader in field goal percentage, 60 percent; minutes played, an average of 32 per game; steals, 80; and blocked shots, 46. He was second on the team in rebounds, averaging 6.3 per game.
been the main player ever since I've been here."
If Manning had the spotlight on him last season, this year the light is even brighter.
Manning's overall performance on the court, especially his frequent passing, has brought him criticism. At one time, Brown said Manning was not aggressive enough. Others said that he wasn't a clutch player and that he would sooner pass the ball than shoot.
Jayhawk head coach Larry Brown disagrees.
"I made that statement two years ago, and people keep bringing it up," Brown said. "He's
But surrounded by the talent of Dreiling, Kellogg and Thompson. Manning seemed to blend in with the crowd.
This year, Manning is the lone star.
"People are going to pay if they double-tear me." Manning said. "Someone is going to be open, and they're going to get the ball in scoring position."
Opposing teams also will be looking to Manning. Without last year's scoring threats, opponents will likely double- and triple-team Manning in an effort toush the Jayhawks' offense.
"I'm going to have to be a leader because the younger guys need someone to look up to." Manning said.
The Jayhawks are a young, inexperienced team that will look to Manning and seniors Cedric Hunter and Mark Turgeon for leadership.
No doubt the open man will get the ball. Often Manning has
dazzled the crowd and even his own teammates with his magician-like passes. But this year, Brown is looking for Manning to shoot the ball when he is close to the basket.
Manning has adjusted well to his new role. He started this season by scoring 28 points against the Soviet National Team and 26 points against Tennessee-Martin despite their defenses keving on him.
"Now I yell at him if he is eight feet from the basket and doesn't shoot," Brown said.
While Manning works to make Kansas a great team, he is quickly becoming one of the greatest players to wear the crimson and blue.
"I'll do whatever it takes," Manning said. "If it takes me shooting so many shots a game, I'll do it. I just want us to be a great team."

ss it. I want it.
ple o have and a fun
In just over two seasons, Manning is closing in on Clyde
Lovelle's KU scoring record of 1,888 points. Heading into this season, Manning had 1,149 points.
"Nobody is going to stop him," said KU guard Cedric Hunter.
"It took me awhile to get used to the extra weight, but now I like it," he said.
Stopping Manning could be even more difficult this season. He spent the summer eating his mom's home cooking. He gained 15 pounds and now weighs 220 pounds.
An off-season knee injury that Manning suffered in a pickup game kept him off the United States team at the World Championships and in the kitchen and weight room.
Completely healed from the injury and bulked up, Manning is just as quick on the court, and that could spell trouble for a lot of teams, especially since there is no one for Manning to blend in with.
