New baseball seating goes on sale
The Kansas Baseball Office for the first time is selling season tickets for reserved seats at Hogland-Maupin Stadium.

Lee Ice, assistant coach, said that though admission was free to students with their KUID, the $25 season ticket would benefit a fan at the games in which Kansas played nationally ranked teams such as Minnesota and Creighton, when the office anticipated a packed house. He said 73 tickets had been sold. Faculty and staff pay $12.50 a ticket.

"These new numbered seats are so that fans can come to a game like Wichita State at 6:55 for a 7:00 game and have a seat there waiting for them," ice said. "We felt it was time to change our image a little bit. We hope someday the tickets will be a commodity much like basketball tickets are."
Ice said the office would keep the first three rows behind first base,first five rows behind home plate and the whole section behind third base open for students.The stadium's capacity is 1,320.
"We want the students here most of all," Ice said. "There will be plenty of seats for them because they're most important. They're the ones that create the atmosphere and get us wrapped up in the game."
Last year, the office sold about 490 general admission tickets, or 24 percent of the stadium's seating, which was second highest in the conference.
Spectators also can purchase Jayhawk punch cards for $20. Ice said the punch cards allowed the holder 20 general admissions to home games.
"More than one person at a time can come in on one punch card," ice said. "It's a good buy."

Ceilings leaking at Oliver Hall for second time this month

Oliver Hall residents are all wet again
Marcy Hanna, Overland Park sophomore, said ice caused the roof to start leaking about 2:30 p.m. yesterday.
For the second time this semester, residents on the north end of the 10th floor at Oliver have covered their belongings with plastic and are waiting for the roof to stop leaking.
hallway to catch dripping water.
yesterday.
At least three rooms on the 10th floor have leaks, she said. About 10 trash cans have been put in the
Hanna said she wanted to know what would happen if it continued to rain.
"I'm not going to sit back and let my roof leak and not voice my opinion," she said.
Tim Flanagin, residence hall director, was unavailable last night for comment.
The 24-year-old roof has leaked periodically since last fall. On Feb. 3, water leaked into seven rooms, inconveniencing residents and causing minor damage. Roof repairs were estimated at $100,000.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said last night he would try to request an emergency roof replacement, hoping to shave several weeks or months off the normal process.

Residents on the 10th floor have been offered other accommodations, he said.
Maintenance crews put a seal on the roof yesterday afternoon, he said.
"We are uncertain as to whether it will stop more water or not," Stoner said.
Jennifer Bagby, Lyndon freshman, said last time the roof leaked, it dripped on her roommate's bed, forcing her roommate to leave.
"We will help them any way we can." Stoner said.
The University of Kansas's insurance covers University property only. Students are instructed when they move into the halls to purchase reenter's insurance to cover events such as theft or water leaks, Stoner said.
Hanna said that none of her belongings had been damaged but that she didn't carry insurance.
"I didn't think you needed insurance in a 12-by-12 dorm room," she said.
