Gymnast, swimmers set for meets
By Gail Habluetzel Kansan Staff Reporter
KU gymnasts and swimmers are heading into further action Saturday—the gymnasts at Wichita State University for a "double duel" with Wichita and K-State at 2:30 p.m., and the swimmers at Robinson Gymnasium for a 1 p.m. clash with the University of Arkansas.
According to gymnastics coach Bob Lockwood, the meet Saturday should be "really close" because of winning performances in each team's initial duel match last week. All three teams scored well-Wichita 165, K-State 154, KU 168, he said.
A problem KU might have is the lack of some top men due to a bout with the flu. Four or five men have been out but may gain enough strength to compete Saturday, Lockwood said.
The team has more depth this year, but its chances without top men in each event aren't as good in a meet of this calibre, Lockwood said.
"A 'double duel' is a match where you compete in two separate duels at the same time," Lockwood explained. "We'll either win first in two duels, win one and
lose one, or lose both. There won't be a second or third place."
Lockwood pointed to four men he thought would do well in Saturday's meet—Robert Pearson, Rich Hemphill, Wayne Dixon and Steve Pyle.
Pearson did "real well," according to Lockwood, in his all-around performance last week scoring 47.4 points.
Pearson also contributed to the school record that was set on the parallel bars. Pearson, Hemptill and Dixon combined for 26.7 points, the highest three-man total ever at KU on the parallel bars.
Also scoring well was the ring team with 26.8 points. Steve Pyle led the attack here with 9.1 points.
Swim coach confident
Swimming coach Dick Reamon is confident that his team will win Saturday against an Arkansas team that is only in its third year of a swimming program.
"This is the best swimming team we've ever had at KU." Reamon said. "I expect us to go to the nationals and score."
The main objectives of Saturday's meet, Reamon said, would be to see where the team is overall. He said last week's meet at Ames, Iowa, helped him to see that the team's condition was good. He said that conditioning has been stressed since the opening day of practice in September.
Reamon said he thought the team was ready to establish several KU varsity and pool records, and he would be disappointed if they didn't.
He pointed to flu as the only hindrance to record setting this Saturday. But he was quick to add that the team has good depth.
"Each man has to really move to keep his position." Reamon said. "If some guy it sitting back on his laurels, another may snatch his position but from under him. We've got some boys, who haven't made our traveling squad but would be first team on several other conference teams."
With the Big Eight meet at KU this year. Reamon emphasized the benefit of a cheering home crowd
and expressed the desire to see "good backing for a good team."
"The boys can do things they never dreamed they could do, when they've got a good bunch of fans behind them," Reamon said.
Reamon named several team members who could break KU pool records: Bob Hines, pool record in the 50 and 100-yard freestyle; the 400-yard freestyle relay team (Hines, Roy O'Connor, Hugh Miner and Tom Bowser), both the KU and pool record; Jim Kent, pool record in the 1,000-yard freestyle and 200-yard butterfly; and Tom Ellis, pool record in the 500-yard freestyle.
Reamon named Jim Askins, defending Big Eight diving champ in the low board and runner-up in the high board, as a likely winner in meets this year.
Admission for KU students at Saturday's meet will require only ID's, Reamon said.

All except Turgeon were All-

The top vote-getter on the offensive team was Kansas State's split end Dave Jones. Nebraska's Wayne Meylan was a unanimous choice on the defensive unit.
