Sport budget lean
for Kansas schools
Kansas state legislators have expressed doubt that the
Kansas Legislature would approve a proposal to supplement
the athletic budgets of state schools.
Reactions to the proposal varied from cynicism to
optimism about its chances for approval by the legislature,
according to an article appearing in the Kansan, the University
of Kansas student newspaper.
The article went on to say the Kansas Board ot Kegents
approved a request to the legislature for $770,000 in state
assistance for the six state colleges and universities in Kansas.
The University of Kansas was to receive $190,000.
Henry Bubb, Topeka businessman and a member ot the
Regents' Athletic Committee, said that the financial situation
of the state schools' athletic departments had become critical.
The only alternative to state financial support, he said,
would be to end conference competition by the schools.
However, Clyde Walker, KU athletic director, said that
there was little chance of KU being forced to withdraw from
the Big 8.
"That would be a last resort, after all else had failed," the
Kansan quoted him as saying.
Walker confirmed, however, that KU's athletic department
was having financial difficulty. He said the program was in
poor shape and has been losing money over the past three
years.
