An old-timers' basketball game and a symposium to look into the future are among plans being made by the University's anniversary of the University of Kansas.
The anniversary will be observed during the 1990-91 academic year. The theme is "Building on a Great Tradition - 125 Years at KU."
Del Shankel, chairman of the anniversary planning committee, said that both the athletic and the lectures and symposium subcommittees had made preliminary plans for events.

"The game would be played in Hoch Auditorium since games were actually played there," he said.
The lectures and symposium subcommittee had made preliminary plans for a lecture series focusing on the history of the University, he said.

The first seminar was held to mark the University's 100th anniversary.
He said that a forum similar to one held in 1966, "Inter-Century Seminar on Man and the Future," might be scheduled. The forum would examine both the past and the future of KU and the world.
Bill Conbay, professor of communication studies, who was involved with the first forum, said that it attracted international attention because of its scope.
"I think it would be exciting, stimulating and worthwhile to take the same theme 25 years later," he said.

Lawrence's die-hard campers will will be a place to pitch their tents this winter.
"The whole park is open, except that the main campground one is closed," she said. "You're welcome in the ground two. That's for the hardy folks."
Bob Streeter, regional supervisor
Electricity hook-ups work in most parts of the park, she said, but water is available only at the park office. Marina owners have decided to close their facility, so no rental services will be available.
"What we did was restrict certain areas because of vandalism," he said. "Clinton has been one that has been gated in the past."
