SHELIA MOORMAN, KU assistant coach, said she thought the Las Vegas game was "a super way to end the season," and pointed out that KU's season record of 14-13 didn't reflect how well the team had played during the year.
Kansas lost games to Grandview College,
considered one of the top teams in the
nation, 89-80, and to Kansas State, this
year's Big Eight championship, 54-47.
The women also scored some impressive victories this year, including a 66-63 win over Phillips's University, last year's national Small College champion.
FRESHMAN CENTER Adrian Mitchell led the Jayhawks in both scoring and rebounding this season. Shooting for a total of 107 points, he scored a game. Her bound average was 12.4.
The team's youth and record was an indication of a promising future. Washington
"We had 10 freshmen on a 16-member squad, but we started out recognizing the potential of our players," she said. "We have some of the best bimmers in the state. We also have many players in terms of shooting abilities inside, great ball handlers and quickness."
OTHER SCORING LEADERS were junior forward Karen Schneller and freshman forward V.C. Sanders, with averages of 12 and 10.4 points.
In addition to Mitchell and Sanders, freshman guard Kelly Phipps and freshman forward Melanie McWhirt played on scholarships.
Washington said she hoped to increase the number of scholarships.
"There's no question that we need more depth in certain positions," she said.
When a pole vaulter begins his approach down the runway with his 18-foot pole quivering in front of him, every spectator turns to watch.
the dardeedu upends himself on the flexible fiberglass pole and attempts to sail over the crossbar and fall into the pit below, the audience holds its breath.
MOORMAN SAID that, to date, two more women have been offered basketball skills.
But she scholarships or not, Washington said she had high hopes for the KU women's team.
"We played very well this season," she said, "and I predict that we're a year or two away from the nationalists if we maintain our players and can recruit some vowel talent
2nd NCAA meet awaits Scales
By GARY VICE Sports Writer
"We have a lot of potential. It's matter of being patient. That's the key."
TAD SALEHS, The University of Kansas' top pole vaulter, enjoys being in the center ring of attention at track meets, and is a member of the showman roopy vaulters become.
When successful in clearing the crossbar

IN ORDER FOR Scales to do well in the NCAA meet, he will have to overcome some consistency problems he's had this indoor season.
"But when you place there, you've placed against the best in the nation. It's a skill."
"I've been playing cat and mouse so far this year," he said, "I've been real low-kay indoors to get ready for a big outdoor season." He also is an Olympic trials. I like to make it to them.
To be invited to the Olympic trials in June, the Jayhawk valueter has to clear 17-4%. He said the 17-foot mark had been his goal for several years.
"IT HAS BEEN EEDING me now since I was a junior in high school. But I feel I'm a lot stronger and a lot faster. If not I put it the right time, I can do it."
Scales exits the pit in leaps and bounds with his arms raised triumphantly overhead.
"Whenever I make a good jump, I feel great," said the extroverted Lawrence sophomore. "I feel like I'm on top of the hill." When I get the job to restrain my feelings, it is worth doing it.
"I CANT JUMP unless there is a good crowd. There's something about it. Whenever I jump, I can feel the crowd. Everybody is right where watching you."
Scales will get his next chance to compete before a large crowd this weekend in Detroit at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships. He qualified for the meet in a dual meet earlier this season against Missouri when he cleared 16-7%.
ALTHOUGH IN ONLY his second year of collegiate competition, Scales won't be a rookie at the NCAA meet. As a freshman, he helped the Jayhawks to their second-place finish by vaulting 16-4 and tying for fifth place.
Scales said a change in poles also would help him reach the 17-foot mark. After the Big Eight Indoor door, he switched to a stiffer fiberglass pole which he said would throw him up harder and allow him to grasp the pole higher.
"In a way, it was a surprise," Scales said. I
woke up a deep feeling. Deep down, I
Tripleheader opens season
USING A SOFTER fiberglass pole, Scales vaulted 16-3 at the Big Eight championships in finishing second to Alabama. Johnson was also named Johnson's third champion at 16-4, would have won the championship on the basis of fewer misses. Johnson went on to clear 174%, establishing a new meet record. He was also beaked for Johnson's final attempt.
"I think it was the longest couple of minutes I'd spent in my life," Scales said. "I knew he had the potential, and I was just going to be one of the hardest battles in my life."
Pitchers Roger Slagle, Rob Allinder and Brian Rhodes will get the starting assignments today when KU the baseball team acts as host to William Jewell in a tripleheader at noon on Quigley Field, south of Allen Field House.

"Why Do the Heathen Rage?"
Psalms 2 and Acts 4:25
This question is the opening words of The Second Preamble of The Bible, God Almighty's revelation of Himself to man. It tells who the heathen are, why they argue, and the results of their rage, which is a pretty good picture of the conditions of the world today. God also tells us the way in which we give up and urge upon us, and the causes of anger and confusion into His peace and blessness. However, it appears we prefer to continue to rage. The purpose of thisrage is to break The Bands and Cast away the Cords of restraints of His Moral Law. His Ten Commandments. Probably the greatest and most widespread rage of all is against the restrained and sinful life of the human beings, who mock at the "negative" God: "God' thou shalt not," especially in the following:
"REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY, TO KEEP IT HOLY. SIX DAYS SHALT THOU LABOR, AND DO ALL THYWORK: BUT THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH OF THE LORD THY GOD: IN IT THOU SHALT NOT DO ANY WORK, NOR THY NOR SON, NOR THY DAUGHTER, THE MANSEVRANT, NOR THY MAIDENSHIELD, THE MANSEVANT, NOR THY GATES: FOR IN SIX DAYS THE LORD MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH, THE SEA, AND ALL THAT IN THEM IS, AND RESTED THE SEVENTH DAY: WHEREFORE THE LORD BLESSED THE SABBATH DAY, AND HALLOWED IT."
"NI TIT shoul not do any work," nor any man or animal over whom you exercise authority. Probably nothing reveals the character of a person more than the commandments he makes, and the obedience he demands obedience to his commandments! God surely meant what he said about the Sabbath Day. Take this illustration concerning an individual who was found working on The Sabbath shortly after the commandments were given. One might imagine that the congregation, and it was done — Numbers 15:32-36. Or take this illustration concerning the kind and the nation found in the messages from God by Jeremiah in 17:20-27, where we find that not so many years ago the people of Israel promised the people of the city it would "Remain Forever" if they quit

working on the Sabbath, and hallowed the day. "Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in charisors and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of the earth, would be called by the name of God forever — but if ye will not hearken unto Me to hallowe the Sabbath day, and not bear a burden — then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched." Quit work, hallow the day, and your city shall "remain forever!" I remember that such was the case with Jesus, and the men made their necklace still, that they must not hear, nor receive instruction."
The siege of the city lasted about a year and a half. The walls were broken down, the king was captured, and the last thing he saw before his eyes were bored out was his own sons killed by the word together with many of his princes and great men, and then he was carried away into the city. Soon the king was wounded and many terrible things he saw and experienced. Here are some of them: The great Temple of Solomon was sabotaged and destroyed together with the palaces and great buildings; the children and sucklings swown in the city; young children faint for hunger in the top every street; women eat their fruit, and children of a span long; the tongue of the succulent eaters was cut off; the bread and no man breaketh it unto them; they that did feed delicately are desolate in the streets; they that were brought up in scrape embrace dunhill; the women in Zion were ravished, and the maids in the cities of Judah; princes are hanged up by their hands — but this is enough, or too much: "Wo unto us, that we have sinned." Just think a few years before the horrible experiences Jerusalem had told them if they would remain forever!"
Unbelief and rage against God's Commands is indeed a terrible thing. The Apostle Paul said: "Knowing the terror of The Lord, we persuade him," I thought on my ways, and moved my feet unto Thy testimony; I waited, and delayed not to keep Thy commandments - Psalm 119:59-60.
