KU signs top basketball recruits
Traveling from one end of the country to another, the KU basketball staff yesterday secured the signatures of three of the nation's most highly sought-after playmaking players that high school junior college prospects could sign national scholarship agreements.
The signees were Tony Guy, a 6-6 guard from Towson, Mil.: David Magley, a 6-7 forward from South Bend, Ind., and Mark Siskins from Hephaiz High School in San Diego.

in more, when they sign. They then quickly boarded a private jet
after 9 a.m. to South Bend, Ind., where shortly after 9 a.m. they secured the signature of David Magley. Soon after, they rebounded the jet and then, after shorty hours, they signed Snow.
Guy paced Towson Loyola to a 27-6 record this past season, including the Catholic League championship. He averaged 24.2 points in year and week 1 of his three-year start, his career scoring output was 1,499 points, an average of just over 20. His career rebounding mark was well above that of his career scoring and rebounding highs of 39 and 25 respectively.
Guy was a consensus prep All-American, having been named by Parade Magazine.
Magley, and All-American by Parade Magazine and Basketball Weekly, averaged 25.7 points and 13 rebounds this past season. In state tournament play he averaged 31 points. He also earned all-state honors and is one of three finalists for the "Mr. Basketball Award," given annually to the top high school player in Indiana.

CARLBASD, Calif. (AP) — Golf's strongest field, an elite 29-member cadre of winners headed by Masters champion Gary Player and defending titleholder, has garnered for the prestigious $225,000 tournament of Champions that started today.

Trackmen sign KU pact
University of Kansas track coach Bob Timmons yesterday announced the signing of the country's leading high school pole vaulter, long jumper and triple jumper.
**ARLINGTON, Texas** (UPI) —Texas Rangers pitcher Roger Moret was given a sedative and taken to a hospital Wednesday at the New York city catatonic-like state in the club room.
The trio, which was recruited by Timmons and assistant coach Gary Pepin, included two Kansans; pole vaulter Jeff Loomis; basketball player Mark Hanson from Topela High School.
The third signee was triple jumper Sanya Owakane from Sleepy Hollow High School in Iowa.
ALL THREE athletes currently lead the country's high school charts in their rankings.
Buckingham vaulted 16-3 last month to win the Kansas state 3A-4A in indoor meet and put himself a half-foot ahead of the country's second best high school vaulter.
Hanson leaped 25-0½ two weeks ago to move to the top of the high school rankings. Owati finished the indoor season with the team that ranked third in triple jumps, including a best of 90-4¾.
"We feel extremely fortunate and happy to sign three young athletes of this caliber," Tummons said. "As evidenced by their strong performances, I am grateful for significant contributions to our program."
BUCKINGHAM I6-8 vault was the third best indoor vault ever in U.S. high school history. It was also a state indoor record. He has an outdoorbest of 16-14%, which placed him second last year at a regional Junior High school to current KU freshman Frank Angele.
However, Buckingham went on to win the national junior Olympics the last summer and won a bronze medal.
Hanson, also a winner at the state indoor this year, successfully defended his 1977 title. He has the best long jumps in Kansas and has averaged a 34-2/3 indoor jump and a 23-0/1 outdoor.
His indoor record is the sixth best indoor jump in national prep history. Hanson also was a football and basketball letterman at Topeka High.
Owaliab拉 the national triple jump chart by nearly two feet coming off the indoor season. His best outdoors is a 51-1 wind-ided jump.
He also long jumped more than 23 feet this winter to rank among the nation's top 10 prepsters and, in a recent poll by Track and Field officials, he was ranked number one school performer of the 1978 indoor season.

"I'll BE all right on Thursday." Player said. "I'll have a friend who has such an emotional reaction. I was exhausted."
After that appearance, Moret said he wanted to stay with the Rangers.
He has been in the majors for eight sessions and came to Texas from Atlanta in 1985. He played with the No. 37 Boston team.
Green and Watson, who tied for second, one shot back of the South African in the Masters, were late arrivals at the La Costa Country Club, as was Niklaus.

"You build yourself, your game and your emotions, to a peak for one event and then, when it's over, you let down," Nicklaus said. "It takes a little while to get ready again." But the Masters is over. There's nothing more to play than to understand the matter of playing this once. Once the tournament gets started it is not difficult to give it your best."
Morel, 28, posted a 3-4 record with Texas last year and helped the early part of the season on the disabled list.
WSU coach sets policy
WICHTA, Kan., (AP) - Gene Smithson introduced Wichita State University's basketball players to his "MYTE" system Wednesday in his first visit with the team since being named Shocker head coach.
His philosophy, which stands for "mental toughness, extra effort," brought the 37-year-old coach success in Illinois State, where he compiled a 66-18 record in three years and guided the two consecutive NIT appearances.
"I patented this time ago," said Smithson, who was named head coach Monday. "It's a philosophy of mine. I demand it of myself, my staff and my players. For success, I believe one must be extra touch mentally."
ON THE recruiting trail since he decided to leave Illinois State, he has been attempting to persuade players he wants him normal to come to Wichita.
"None of them had Wichita State down, but as a result of our staff recruiting them, now they want to take a look," he said. "That's the way the games work."
Recruiting comes down to personalities and relationships that have been formed many times over several years.[14]
Smithson has six scholarships available to augment a team that returns all players from last season's 14-15 campaign. Harry Miller was fired as coach because of sagging attendance at home games.
"What we're looking for are glass eaters, the rebounders." Smithson said. "What we need to do is strengthen the power game. We need size."
WICHITA STATE was particularly hurt last season by the lack of a formidable man to repile graduated students three-time All-Missouri Valley selection.
Wichita State will play a running game offensively and use a pressing defense, Smithson said.
He said it would be at least a week before he selected assistant coaches and told newsman that it was up to his son, Randy, a promising point guard who graduated from Wichita State. He would transfer to Wichita State or remain at Illinois State.
Where it happens!
Happiness is being where the action is. That's why we plan a variety of social activities for your entertainment. Take 'em or leave 'em. Bring a friend or come alone. Either way, you'll enjoy the fun things when you live at our place. So . . . make the right move.
