NFL chooses 3 from KU
Three KU players were selected in the Football League's college draft yesterday.
Lindsey Mason, 6-2, 560 pound offensive tackle, was selected in the third round by the Oakland Raiders. Tom Dinkins, 6-1, 560 pound defensive tackle in the fourth round by the Cincinnati Bengals. Norris Banks, 6-2, 120 pound offspring also was selected in fifth round by the Philadelphia Eagles.
S six rounds of the draft were completed yesterday. Another six occur today.
"I think the teams have three fine prospects," Moore said. "It's rewarding for the young men and you have to feel it says something." People are you turn out fine football players."
KU HEAD football coach Bud Moore said he was happy for the players.
The Kansas City Chiefs selected two defensive ends in the first two rounds. The Chiefs selected Kentucky's highly touted Art Stilt in the second overall pick of the draft and used its first pick of the second one on Sylvester Hicks of Tennessee State.
Still is the first defensive lineman selected by the Chefs in the first round since 1967. The 6-7, 350 pound Still was selected the defensive player of the year in the Southeastern conference. He is a 6-4, 248 pound can play tackle and excels as a pass rusher.
THE CHEFS also selected Kansas State linebacker Gary Spani, Tennessee State linebacker Danny Johnson and wide receiver Jerod McMae, Missouri quarterback Pete Woods, Texas Arlington defensive tackle Dwight Carey and Grambling kicker and wide receiver Robert Woods.
Moore cancels KU spring game
KU head football coach Bud Moore has announced that the Jayhawks' scheduled intrasquad football game scheduled for Saturday has been canceled because of numerous injuries. The game was to have been played at 3:19 p.m. in Haskell Stadium.
"It's simply a matter of too many injuries at certain positions." Moore said. "We're seeing the effects of the 95 scholarship limitations. There aren't enough healthy bodies in certain positions to make up two squads."
Moore said Kansas would have a controlled scrimmage image. It will be the 20th and final practice this spring. Starting next week, she will be closed but the session will be closed to the public.
Earl Campbell of Texas was the No. 1 selection in this year's draft picked by Houston. New Orleans chose Wes Chandler, Florida wide receiver, third, the New York Giants' tight end, Oklahoma State fourth and Bufalo chose Oklahoma State running back Terry Miller fifth.

This season he is the most effective relief pitcher on the University of Kansas baseball team.
Last season Galen Worley was playing left field for an intramural softball team.
Worley, a junior, has compiled a 1.86 ROWL, lowest on the KU pitching staff, and has struck out in more than 29 innings of his game. He has won three and lost one and has four saves.
"I'm a better pitcher with the pressure on," Worley says. "I get too relaxed if it's tight."

KU head baseball coach Floyd Temple
agreed.
"HE IS VERY effective most of the time," Temple said. "He is the type of pitcher that doesn't throw very hard but still works well, and that's what a relief pitcher has to do."
"I throw two pitches, a slider and a curve," Worley said. "I can throw the curve at different angles, but I don't throw too many BBS."
Temple is not exaggerating when he says that Worley does not throw very hard. The image shows him throwing a ball.
Andy Gilmore, who was KU's starting catcher until he was injured in the Missouri game, joking about Worley's lack of speed, said the kid, whom he been humbled when they hit against him.
"When Galen comes into the game and warms up, the guys on the other bench start to ride him a bit." Gilmore said. "They think they can hit him out of the game. It's funny to watch them try and hit his pitches."
"THEY'RE LAUGHING when they come up to the plate." Worley said. "But I'm laughing when they're on their way back to the doutur."
Worley said he had two concerns when he entered a game—to get the first batter out and to prevent any baserunners from advancing. He said that he always tried to hit each pitch with crucial and that he must stay in front of a batter to be effective.
Worley said the other teams did not bother him. If anything, he gets more psyched up when he's told about his story.
The toughest situation in which he has pitched this season, Worley said, was when he was down 17-6.
Nebraska had defeated KU twice and it was the final game of the four-game series. In the first game of that day's game, Nebraska won 11-2 and they were hot at the plate.
Starter Terry Sutcliffe had pitched four innings and the Jawhaws led 4-3.
WORLEY ENTERED the game with a man on first in the fourth inning. He stopped the scoring threat that inning and went on to finish the game. KU won, 8-3.
"That was a do-or-die situation for the team," Worley said. "I was glad to get out of it."
It also is typical of the situations in which worley has been called upon this season by the referee to treat the result.
"Last fall when I was trying out I really didn't have a very good idea of what I would be doing," he said, "but I like throwing relief."
Worley, who played baseball at Colby Junior College, was one of about 55 people who did not play last season that Temple and his coaching staff watched last fall. He is one of four that made the team, but he is the only one that plays on a regular basis.

A JOURNALISM MAJOR, Worley he said he would find out whether he could give Kyle BKE best feedback.
So far, Worley has proved he can pitch in the Big Eight, and he'll have the opportunity to prove it again later this month. KU then will enter the conference championship tournament, May 17 through May 21 in Oklahoma City.
Only $1.00
If things occur in the tournament as they have occurred so far this season, Worley will be the man Temple calls on when his starters get into trouble.
Worley is helping KU to his best season and in his intramural team has not missed him much. After leaving the softball team, Worley and her队友 teams had to find a left fielder.
They did. Hisformer team,the Sin City All Stars, also went on to win the intramural tournament.
