4 Monday, June 21, 1976 University Daily Kansan Sports Soda, pretzels, beer mark summer softball By COURTNEY THOMPSON The theory that exercise renews the body, supports the spirit and keeps the mind in vigil is tested at 5:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday on the field east of O-Zone. Intramural softball competition began last week as the teams got a first look at the field. Encouragement came from small but vocal cheering sections made up of wives, sisters and friends. Mike Heaston, summer intramural director, said last week the leagues had been formed for all interested University people - faculty, staff, undergraduates and graduate students. He said teams were primarily formed from students, although some living groups and miscellaneous groups were represented. Last week's games began the seven-week season involving five men's fastpitch and 15 men's slow-pitch and four co-rec (combined) teams. The games, scheduled for Sunday, are mostly for fun. Heston said, although some teams become very competitive. "Some of the fast-pitch group get real serious about it," he said. "They take it like a champ." The league roster boasts a variety of interesting team names. Some of the names are The Late Corners is an expansion team, and Once Is Not Enough and Ancient Mariners are groups representing the students in the marine science team as a sports team of Student Senate members. Two of last week's games suggested the prevailing tone of summer intramural games: exercise to renew the body, beer to cool the mind and pretzels to keep the mud vigorous. In a contest between the Late Comers and Once Is Not Enough on Wednesday, there was a very vocal cheering section, even more so than the cheering came from the players themselves. Umpire Rob Ohm, Fort Wayne, Ind., senior, said, "These teams apparently know what they're doing. That's not always the case." Randy Robertson, Lawrence graduate student, plays third base for the Late Comers. His wife, child and dog swelled the gallery to a total of four. One member of the Late Corners didn't know the names of his team members. "They just called me and asked if I wanted to play. But I still don't really know." Across the field the Psychosis (psychology department) and the Tic (a miscellaneous condition) are covered in detail. Their large cheering section seemed to be enjoying the game, as evidenced by a full cooler, bags of pretzels and discarded Coors cans. Dedication seemed to be the key in the Psychos' strategy. Despite a broken arm, Bob Chabot, Chesire, Conn, graduate student, pitched batting practice for the team and was seldom seen sitting on the sidelines. Heaston said getting enough players for the leagues was no problem but there was a need for more umpires. Officials for the NHL were not available, and for KU baseball team members, he said. There are no specific qualifications for being an amputee, other than knowing how to play softball. An instructional clinic is held before the season starts. Heaston said. Susan Mundinger, Shawnee Mission, sopromore, is a rookieump for the intre lment of the National Guard. "She's pretty good, but she needs to be more vocal!" Oli said. Mundinger said she enjoyed umpiring the games but thought umpires unnecessary. "I think those guys don't really need their for their games, she said. "People would find it easier to better if they were calling the plays. Sometimes they get mad over such ridiculous things." She said she'd received compliments on her work and was respected by the teams. our work and was respected by the teams. All games are seven innings, or one hour and 15 minutes, whichever comes first. A tournament will be held at the end of July. NEW YORK (AP) —The lawyer for Oakland A's owner Charles O. Finley said yesterday he was filing a lawsuit against baseball Commissioner Bowie Kuhn and his office, asking for damages in the neighborhood of $10 million and a preliminary Finley vows Kuhn suit Attorney Neil Papiano said the complaint would be filed "Monday but more likely on Tuesday." There would be several cause of action, Papiano said, "at least The lawyer said there had been no change in Finley's order not to play the trio of players in limbo: Vida Blue, Rollie Fingers and Joe Rudi. "This is not a vindictive move," Papiano said. "It's made from legal and practical considerations. These are somebody else's property." You might also be property. What if they get hurt?" Marvin Miller, executive director of the Players' Association said Kuhn single-handedly plunged baseball into the biggest mess it has ever seen. He said he thought the potential, in terms of damage, was tremendous. The Yankees, thus far, have been quiet on the matter, refraining from commenting until their promised news conference early this week. The news conference would do when he said at his Friday news conference that he expected legal action from Steinbrenner's ballclub. There will be no litigation from the Red Sox, however. "I don't know what the hell the Commissioner is basing his ruling on," said Boston owner Tom Yawkey. "But I will use it as evidence that there are too many laws in sports already." **GAMES** Cleveland 11, Kansas 8 New York 4, Chicago 3 Boston 4, Cleveland 3, 11 innings Baltimore 9, Texas 7 Baltimore 9, Texas 7 Kansas City 39 21 659 * Texas 33 26 638 * Oklahoma 26 26 8 * Minnesota 29 32 475 * California 29 32 475 * California 29 32 603 * W L Pct.

"I think it was that bad." The Indians scored three runs in the second inning with Fosse driving in the first The single in-joke with any importance is The Indians pouned on Kansas City starter Mark Littell, 3-2, for seven runs in two innings. They led 9-0 before Kansas City sent 13 mph to the plate in the fourth. Bibby, 3-2, came in with none out, the bases loaded and seven runs home in the fourth innning and retired the Royals with a strikeout by Hal MMcAe and a single by Al Cowens. CLEEVELAND (AP)—Jim Bibby and two other Cleveland hurriers组合 for six innings of shutout relief and Ray Fosse drove in four runs as the Indians survived an eight-run fourth-inning outburst by victory and defeated the Royals 138 yesterday.

"The autumn landscape is full of the beauty of nature before death or winter and it contains a lot about death. Schelld has declared, "I think if you are interested in life, if you want to live life to its fullest expression, you have to be interested as well in death, which ends with death." However, Schell was evidently satisfied much too early that he had a sure fire hit. Instead of leaving open the possibilities for the magic, jarring chemistry necessary for great motion pictures, Schell has sufficed the production in the name of "art." Rules of 'Game'prove pretentious instantly entombed. The camera work is beautiful to look at, but it is as static as the still portraits that comprised the greater half of "Bary Lydney," and far less detailed than "The Wizard." A great motion picture, one would think, would concentrate on motion. Not Sochell. DESPITE THE traditional premise of the story, very little attention is given to the evidence that he has condescend to explore the alternate topic, the all-important motives of the suspects, victims and sleuths. Instead, the viewer is left with a murious or puzzling, yet over-composed, shots. Review Now Baerliack is investigating the death of his assistant, Robert Schmidt (Donald Sutherland). He is aided by an ambition (not pretentious) junior officer, Walter Wright (Vaughn). Together, the two men set about pinning his murder on Gastmann. Head-to-Head Professional Hair Styling for Men and Women Potentially a diverting mystery with the proper number of twists and turns, "End of the Game" might even have become one of the greatest films in recent intriguing cast in Martin Rittin, Robert Shaw, Jon Voight, and Jacqueline Bisset; a respectable source in Friedrich Duerrennat's novel, *Directions* and His衬衫 and a solid director in former actor Maximilian Schell. Violinist Pinchas Zakerman plays under a lone tree, Shell's prized autumn leaves falling around him. A mask of a decapitated woman's head rests on a silver platter. a cheetah strolls into a room shortly after Jon Vogt has entered. And Maximilian Schell Voigt has entered. The two must-see Gastmann's parties. Alas, none of these things have any bearing on the plot. Contributing Writer Duerrmann's appearance as a writer named Friedrich. He makes some cryptic comments about a chess game he is playing with himself, then proceeds to sweep the figures off the board. In view of the many clues he leaves for the opponent undoubtedly some thematic significance to this speech, but it's not worth the effort of figuring it out. The difference between "ambitious" and "pretentious" is the difference between wishing to succeed and claiming to have already succeeded. On no theater screen in Lawrence is this distinction more apparent than the nightly showings of "End of the Game". BvCHUCKSACK Even the key actions in the story are downplayed. The "game" is a lifelong duel between police commissioner Hans Baerlach (Ritt) and an international criminal industrialist, Richard Gastmann (Shaw). Since Gastmann's murder of their friend, Erik Burchard, years earlier, Baerlach has sought to prove his rival's guilt in other affairs. One coupon per person BEST SELECTION IN TOWN The Garden Center xxxxxxxxxx All for $1.99 WITH DEFICITS in all other areas, only the cast could salvage this film. Martin Ritt is properly and pensively dogged, and Shaw is convincingly villainous. Jo Vontgirl's performance is embarrassingly shallow, while Jacqueline Bisset is merely enigmatic and disarming. Her performance provides the winning necessary to interest the viewer in the characters. "End of the Game's" pretensions are so pervasive that the actors don't bother to do anything particularly watchable; why stop them? The role already assumes to have succeeded? 4 blocks east of Mass. on 15th 843-2004 PREPARE FOR Fortunately, there is a single bright spot in the picture, and you can have the full benefit of it without staying for the end of the game. Donald Sutherland does a highly comic turn that avoids being pretentious, and is certainly not overambitious. Fittingly, he is a casket killer, he sketches with his pen, corpse.
