Former Kansas assistant basketball coach R.C. Buffard and former Kansas player Rodney Halday said yesterday that they did not believe former Kentucky guard Marshall, who said he had paid dayhawk players.
"Mike's always looking for a place in the paper," Buford said of Marshall, who played at Kansas during the 1982-84 season. "He'll always be way. He's always mooed off other people."
In the Nov. 14 issue of Sports Illustrated, Marshall was quoted by reporter Jeffrey Marx as saying that he made loans to Kansas players, including Danny Manning, Manning's agent, Ron Grinker, confirmed that Marshall gave Manning numerous small loans.
Mars said yesterday that Marshall had not been paid for his information.
"I you have to know Mike to understand what he did. Hull said by phone from Chicago last night. I think he made up 99 percent of it. You just have to know Mike. He just likes getting exposure. If he

knew that the story would be published in the magazine, he'd tell them anything."
Hull, who played at Kansas from 1964 to 1988, said he had not read the article, but when he was told that a picture of Marshall打50 and 100 dollar bills appeared, he said, "That's the way
"I don't trust him," Hull said of Marshall. "I trusted him a few years ago, but I wouldn't trust
Former Kansas队 Codir Hunter, who was Marshall's roommate during the 1983-84 season.
Hunter said that the Kansas City Times had misquoted him yesterday as saying he received money from Marshall.
"That's not accurate." Hunter said. "I roamed with Mike, but I never took any loans from him and he never gave any to me.
never received any money from anyone. As far as I know, none of the other players ever did, either I don't think Coach Brown ever had any idea that happened."
Reports about how much money may have been exchanged have varied.

"He. Brown." just wishes everybody would leave him alone. He doesn't deserve this."
Hunter also said that if, in fact, money had been exchanged, the amount of $5 or $20 was not important.
"You borrow $5 from your friends all the time," he said. "If you're at the grocery store and your friend is short, you loan him the money. But it's pay back. I don't think players were paid. But it's always a possibility. But if it did happen, it's that serious."
NCAA to question Manning, Marshall
By Arvin Donley Kansas sportswriter
The NCAA will question former Kansas basketball star Danny Manning and former Kansas player Mike Marshall concerning allegations made in a Sports Illustrated article that said Manning and other former Jayhawks had accepted illegal loans from Marshall, NCAA Director of Enforcement David Berst said yesterday.
Berst defended the NCAA yesterday for allowing Jeffrey Marx, the Sports Illustrated reporter, to sit in on two NCAA interview sessions with Marshall, stating that friends of witnesses often sat
in on interviews. But Borst said he thought Marx acted unethically because he did not identify himself to NCAA investigators as a reporter.
In the magazine's Nov. 14 issue, Marshall said he lent money to Manning and other Kansas players, usually ranging from $20 to
The article also alleged that Marshall withheld information from the NCAA during its interview sessions.

Hazardous waste prompts protest Woman handcuffs self to chair in Hayden's office for 4 hours
By Cindy Harger
Kansas staff writer
TOPEKA — A woman handcuffed herself to a chair in the lobby of Gov. Mike Hyden's office for about four hours yesterday to protest the disposal of hazardous waste.
At about 11:50 a.m., Lauren Maddy, a 34-year-old woman from Rose Hill, led a group of 18 supporters, including some KU students, into Hayden's Statehouse office. She was told that the governor was in a meeting and would be busy all day.
"That's O.K." "Muddy said. "I'll wait."
To the astonishment of the Haydenwids, Maddy handed the secretary a written statement, handcuffed herself to a chair, and became silent.
The protest begin after a rally by environmental groups on the steps of the Statehouse. The rally begins by the use of chemicals in agriculture.
"I have locked myself into your environment as you have locked me into mine. Consider me a hazardous chemical." Maddy's
Maddy spoke at the rally, saying that she contracted a rare lung disease from living near the Vulcan Chemicals Co. in Wichita, from 1982 to 1987. She said her doctor told her to move from Wichita about two years ago because of her lung disorder.
"Vulcan Chemicals didn't hold my hand while I was in the hospital fighting for every breath. The EPA didn't send flowers while I was on chemotherapy, steroids, antibiotics." Maddy said. "And sadder yet, not one of our protecting officials were writing strong laws to protect us."
Maddy is involved in a federal lawsuit that she and about 30 others filed against the Vulcan Chemicals Co.
Mist of Maddy's supporters at her protest yesterday did not know Maddy or her protest plans before the rally. However, some were willing to sit in the Governor's lobby as long as Maddy would.
"I will’m trying to stay three days, if that’s what it takes," said Dearle Goldfarb, Frankfort, Kan., junior. "I want the state and Legislature to know its a real problem, but they don’t want to dent with it. They’re just going to let us sit here when they have the power to do something with us. And they just sit there when they have the power to do something with toxic wastes."
By handcuffed herself to the chair in Hayden's office reception area, Maddy said she hoped to make the governor as uncomfortable as she has felt in an environment poisoned with hazardous waste.
"Do you like me in your environment? Are you comfortable with me here? Well, we're not comfortable with toxic waste in our back
Maddy said that she wanted the government to stop issuing permits for production and disposal of toxic chemicals.
"The state keeps allowing more permits to go into effect without evaluating what is going on now," she said.
John Strickler, special assistant for environment and natural resources for Gov. Hayden, said that Maddy had a bad habit of slipping on the chair that handcuffing herself to the chair without I going to solve anything.

Air Force releases photo of Stealth jet
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Air Force has been flying a Stealth radar evading jet fighter for seven years and now has about 50 of the planes at an isolated base in Nevada, Pentagon officials said yesterday.
Partially lifting a veil of secrecy that has enveloped the plane from its birth, the Pentagon and Air Force released a photograph of the unusual aircraft but declined to disclose its capa-made now because the Air Force needs to start flying the craft in daylight, a spokesman said.
The plane is built by the Lockheed Corp at a tightly guarded plant in Burbank, Calif., the Air Force said.

"It has been operational since October 1983 and is assigned to the 4450th Tactical Group at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada. The aircraft is based at the Tompah Test Range Airfield in Nevada," he said.
The photograph released by the Pentagon depicts a relatively small plane with a flat underbelly. It somewhat resembles a sting ray — black or dark blue with no exterior markings.
The Pentagon said that the plane had been declared operational and ready for wartime missions in Oct. 1863 but that it first flew in June 1903.
The Stealth fighter "is officially known as the F-117A," said Dan Howard; the Pentagon's chief spokesman.

"In the last few years, Kansas has probably been one of the top two pheasant-quail states in the nation," he said. "In terms of combination hunting, we have a big advantage over most other states because of our abundance of pheasant, quail and prairie chicken."
"With that many people hunting, there will be some out there without licenses," Miller said. "Wildlife conservation officers will be in the
