The University of Kansas Athletic Corporation (KUAC) board yesterday unanimously approved a budget of $2,658,700 for fiscal year 1978.
Although the board voted to close its meeting during discussion of the budget, a summary of the budget was released after the meeting by Doug Messer, assistant athletic director in charge of business affairs.
Messer said some clerical and wording changes needed to be made before the complete budget could be released. When asked whether any figures would be changed, he said, "None of any consequence."
According to the approved budget, KUAC expects to make $2,658,700 in income next year.
EXPECTED NET revenues from football and basketball totaled $1,845,900 representing 61.8 per cent of all KUAC income.
Other anticipated sources of revenue include $295,000 from the Big Eight Conference; $820,000 in scholarship contributions; $24,800 from the Kansas Rangers; $175,000 from the Cleveland National College Athletic Association (NCAA) basketball tournament.
The money from the conference, derived from bowl game receipts and television contracts, is distributed even among the conference committee. The ACC received $29,000 from the conference.
UNDER EXPECTED expenses, the budget summary listed $737,570, or 32.7 percent of all expenses, for salaries, wages, Social Security payments and benefits. For other expenses, at least the athlete corporation spent $779,632, or 38 per cent of total expenditures.

Operational expenses, which include the six sports funded by KUAC, the sports radio network and information office, the spirit squad and the Kansas Relays, are expected to total $930,120, or 34.8 per cent of total expenditures.
Scholarship and training table expenses were predicted to reach $700,130, or 28.2 per cent of total expenditures in the 1975-76 period. The overall spending spent $693,330 for those expenses.
A BIG CHUNK of the increase can be credited to three sports that didn't receive scholarships in 1975-76 but do now. They are basketball, women's athletics, $4,100, and women's athletics, $45,000.
The baseball team also received 13
battles that lasted seven more than
late.
KUAC expects to spend $154,880, or 6.3 per cent of total expenses, to help retire outstanding debts and pay for equipment, renovations and improvements.
After the changes are made, the complete budget will be added into the University budget, which will be sent to the Board of Regents in Topeka for final approval.
IN EARLIER business, the board voted
Two of the defeated amendments would have compelled the athletic director to commit to a new contract with the KUAC executive committee before hiring or firing a head coach or assistant manager.
down four of five amendments to the bylaw proposed by Tadee Tashef, former president of the Equal Rights Association.
The two other defeated amendments would have made the Executive Committee responsible for long-range planning for the board.
In opposing these two amendments, Gerhard Zuber, professor of English and board member, said after the meeting that long-range planning should be conducted by the group raising the funds for the projects. The committee also planned to alumni members not on the committee.
Zuther said the Executive Committee was designed for short-term emergencies when the entire board couldn't meet and wasn't prepared. The best group to make long-range plans.
The amendment that passed gave the chairman of the Board, J. Hammond McNish, professor of business, the power to appoint any ad hoc committees to assist the athletic director in the search for new head coaches or directors.
Attempt to revive pot bill thwarted by Senate vote
An attempt to revive a bill that would reduce the penalties for possession of less than an ounce of marijuana to a maximum of two, the senate failed yesterday in the Kansas Senate.
State Sen. Joe Norvell, D-Hays, who carried the bill in the Senate, said last night. "We gave it our best shot. I don't know how you can do that," he said, but they just wryd, i read it, for it, yet."
Explaining his latest attempt to save the bill, Norvell said that Monday the Senate had referred it to the Senate State and Federal Affairs Committee, and that yesterday he made a motion to the Senate to reconsider Monday's action.
NORVELL SAID 21 Senate votes on yesterday's motion would have returned the vote to the floor. But the vote was four short of the 21. The Associated Press reported that the first vote
However, a second vote was taken, and the final count showed that some senators had changed their votes. The recorded votes of 41 and of 25 opposed to reschedule the bill.
State Sen. Arnold Berman, D-Lawrence,
vote to reconsider the bill.
Norvell said yesterday the Senate's rejection of the bill Monday was not in doubt. "I don't think it will be."
State Sen. Ed Reilly, R-Leavenworth and chairman of the State and Federal Affairs Committee, said the bill wouldn't move the state into the second session but it might be recommended for interim study before next year's session. Reilly had strongly opposed the bifl
Norwell said it was ironic that Reilly could oppose the marijuana bill while supporting a bill that would allow Kansas restaurants to serve wine and liquor.
Reilly had strongly opposed the bill during floor debate Monday.
"Last year, 1,000 people overdosed on alcohol," Norvell said, "but there is no evidence that any person ever did on marijuana."
OPONENTS of the bill have said present laws on marijuana possession were lenient enough and passage of the bill would be Kansas youth as condoning marijuana use.
Kansas law now states that possession of any amount of marijuanis is a class D felony for any offense, carrying a maximum penalty of a year in prison and a $2,500 fine. If convicted in a court of floor debate, would have retained the current penalties for any offense after the first.
State Rep. Mike Glover, D-D Lawrence and sponsor of the bill, said Monday that the bill was dead for this year. Glover said he would try again next year to get the bill passed.
To get bikes in shape for spring, local bike retailers have some suggestions for tune-ups but stress caution in greasing, oiling and making adjustments on the bikes.
Spring is now more than two weeks old, bicycles are gradually reappearing along the streets.
Springtime means bike tune-up time
Although most bikes don't come with maintenance manuals, instruction books are sold and many local retailers do bike tune-ups.
The following are suggestions for tune
uns:
The bearings and wheels should be greased. To check whether the bike should be greased, spin the bearings. If they sound dry, grease them.
Oil the gear-changing mechanism, chain
and sprockets. Be sure to use a light oil,
which should not the mechanisms too
excessive.
Tighten the wheel nuts and handlebars.
Tighten the cables on the brakes. (This will help maintain traction.)
Check the air pressure in the tires. The correct pressure should be written on the side of the tire. Keep the pressure correct so that it does not leak. And check for knots and splits in the tires.
Keep the bike clean so gears don't jam. Set up a preventative maintenance schedule for the bike, checking it weekly or monthly, depending on how much it is used. Adjust the spokes; if there is a loose or broken one, see a qualified bike repairman.

PLAIN TALK FROM ARMCO ON FINDING A JOB:
Environmentalism
—will it muddy
the job pool?
Some people think America will have to spend a trillion dollars by the mid-1980s on more pollution control. Could this hurt your chance of getting a job you want? We hope not—but it's a possibility.
America simply doesn't have a trillion dollars to spare. Shifting so vast an amount from other uses will disrupt nearly every other national goal.
Adding costly environmental equipment doesn't increase industrial production. So once the equipment is in place, the handful of new jobs created for pollution control is more than offset by production jobs that don't appear. Spending large sacks on pollution control means companies can't spend that money on something else - like new jobs.
We're going to need another 18,000 jobs in this country by 1985. These days the average job costs $42,168 to create. So a trillion dollars is more than the total current cost of creating 18,000 jobs.
Even if we had a trillion dollars, America couldn't satisfy its most extreme environmental demands already on the books. Air quality rules now lock important areas of the country out of any new industrial development. And water quality standards being applied to all bodies of water, no matter how they're used, will stymie adaptation growth in many parts of the U.S.
getter cleaner lately. We've obviously still got a lot to do. But as we do it, we need to study carefully the costs and needs of our life from tying America up in knots.
We all want clean air and water.

Plain talk about POLLUTION CONTROL
So far, Armco has spent $260,000,000 for pollution control systems. Running that equipment costs us another $26,000,000 a year. We've slashed our air emissions 95%. But now we've passed the point of diminishing returns. We've started moving more—and waste more electrical energy—than it took to stop the entire 95%. What's worse, generating the electricity to reduce industrial emissions further often creates more pollution at power plants than industry removes. As a nation, we need to carefully examine environmental factors influence them against their social, as well as economic consequences.
Next time somebody says industry ought to start cleaning up its act, you might like to point out that the cleanup is well on its way. The more extra environmental costs pile on, the fewer new jobs there may be.
