'Hawks,'Cats meet on diamond
By KEN DAVIS Sports Writer
On the schedule, tomorrow's doubleheader between Kansas and Kansas State doesn't look any different from any other baseball game.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
But the rivalry between the two schools, plus the fact that the twin bill will mark the opening in the Big Eight conference season, teams, gives the games special meaning.
A new dimension has been added to the games, which start at 1 p.m. at Quigley Field.

AFTER WINNING seven straight games, the Jayhawks have now lost their last two outings. We also looked bad doing it. The Hawks had lost their first no-hitter for KU and lost to Northwest
Missouri State, 3-1, because of four KU errors.
"We're at a turning point; the crossroads of our season," KU coach Flood Temple said yesterday. "If we snap out of it, I'll assume, I will assume that we've made the turn."
Until the Jayhawks, 13-6, do make the turn, Temple can do nothing but wait. He don't do a major reshuffling of the starting players; he doesn't have enough players to go around.
Temple does have a few options. The Kansas pitcher took batting practice with the pitcher, then the Temple said that if necessary, some of the hurriers could be worked into the batting rotation.
"I HOPE I DON'T have to do that."
Temple said. "But I'm certainly not above it. I think if you don't have somebody that you, you tend to ignore some of your problems.
"That's just human nature. Competition
makes you better and we don't have much competition for positions on this team."
Temple said that there was also a possibility that the KU batting order could be mixed up so that the players that were outright right now would be at the top of the line.
For the time being, Temple is waiting for the players to turn things around.
Kansas State, coached by Dave Baker, is 12-9 on the season. The Wildcats haven't played since March 23 because of rain.
Jim Phillips and Randy McIntosh will be the starters for KU knockout. Phillips is 50 with a 3.34 AER and McIntosh has a 3-12 record with a 3.72 AER.
THE JAYHAWKS will be hosts to Colorado in another Big Eight double-header on Monday. That twin bill is set for 1:30 p.m.
Baseball conflicts on free agency
LOS ANGELES (AP) - It was only five years ago that a basketball player became a free agent at the expiration of his contract. Now it is to end free agency for all the big players.
So here is one vote for the players in the latest, and certainly most serious, hassle major league history, a hassle that could leave the 1980 season in ruins.
THE PLAYERS decided Tuesday to play the season, then return to open the regular season next Wednesday. But they will review the situation on May 22, and a new schedule will be announced.
It has been made clear by both the Major League Players association and an agreement with the league that the major roadblock standing in the way of a basic four-year agreement to replace the minor league is the
Both sides appear adamant in their stands.
FORT MYERS, Fla. (UPI)—Right-
ward from Fort Myers, the
1421 record last year, will be
the probable opening-game start
pitcher for the Kansas City Royals, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Royals begin their season April 10 against the Detroit Tigers in Kansas City. Jack Morris is the probable Detroit starter.
The Royals left their camp open on a voluntary basis yesterday, and 18 of 28 players on the roster participated in an intra-squad game.
Plavers remaining in camp are pit-
chirs Rich Gale, Dan Quinberry, John Christenson, Steve Busby, Marty Pattin, Paul Splittorff, Craig Chamberlin and Leonard; catchers Jamie Quirk, Jim Gaudet and John Wathan; infelders George Brett, Wilkens Alakas, Manny Griffen, Gary Terrell; and outfielders Steve Brain, Clint Huret and Peel Cock.
Frey said the only question marks for his opening day lineup were catcher and right field. Wathan and Quirk are competing for the catcher's job.
In 1975, it was ruled that Andy Messerstein and Dave McNally were free agents because he had signed his contract. The next year, the players had couple of major concessions by agreeing to a four-year contract for a major leaguer for six years before being free a agent and that he could play in the NBA.
LacCock, who hit .390 and four home runs in 14 exhibition games, and Hurdle are fighting for the right field spot.
The owners want compensation for a last "highly sought" free agent. The signing team, after protecting 15 players, would lose a player to the team losing the free agent.
Mavin Miller, executive director of the Players Association, makes a number of rather significant points when he elaborates on this situation.
THE PLAYERS, meanwhile, say, in effect, "Why should we relinquish something we already have?" They want no compensation in such cases.
In most cases, players need three or four years of season before they are eligible to play. Most six years at the big league level, most players have no asy as to where they will play for nine or 10 years.
WHEN A PLAYER qualifies for free agency, or decides to take that route, he is not a kid anymore. Again, bear in mind that a playoff, especially has to take or leave what he is offered.
Women's track team splits for pair of meets
By TOM GRESS
Snorts Writer
KU's women's track team opened its outdoor season last week后 at the Memphis State Invitational and did just about everything right, winning the meet easily.
But it might be no so easy this weekend because the squad will be split up. Eleven women will compete in the Texas RELays today and tomorrow in Austin, Tex., and the rest of the squad will go to the Nebraska today and back to Tomorrow, tomorow. Although head coach Terri Anderson does not expect the results of last weekend to be repeated, she has high hopes.
In Memphis, KU won three individual championships, and placed in almost every event it entered to first finish in the 18-team conference. Tennessee State was second with 100 points.
"We've been pointing to the outdoor season all along and if we can have the same effort we had at Memphis we should do very well," she said. "We've always very pleased with the girls in Memphis."
Robin Small leads the jayhawks by winning the disc with a throw of 146-10. She also finished second in the shot-plot and third in the jayhawns. Shawn Corwin and Michelle Corwin had the other two first places. Corwin scored 25 points and Brown won the 150 meters in a 3:34.
The Jayhawks also qualified their first team to win the championships this season. The 40-meter relay team, composed of Carla Anderson, Haley McKenny, Ronnie Wilson and Lori Wittman, won all three of them, which was good enough for third place. Tennessee State won with a world-record.
Anderson said she expected to qualify

several more athletes for national this weekend. In Texas she is counting on the two-mile relay team of Vick Simpson, Pam Brown and Tracy Johnson to Brown, Blue, qualify, then win the event.
"The girls have been running real well in practice," Anderson said. "They should get either first or second."
Texas Relays and the prospect of sending her athletes against top competition appeals to Anderson.
She said she also expected the 400-relay and sprint-medley relay team of Carla Anderson. Romie Wilson, Lori Green-Jones Dobbler Hertzig to finish in the top three.
Although no team scores will be kept at Kelso, they will have to keep at the Nebraska Invitational. With her top runners going to Texas, Anderson said she didn't expect to win the meet, but she hoped to do so.
"The competition is so good at Texas," she said. "There are going to be some strong relay teams and it should be a real good team." "We did way we did at Memphis it should go well."
At Nebraska, Anderson hopes Robin Small will qualify in the javelin and shotout. and Shawn Corwin in the high jump.
This is the first trip KU has made to the
"We're not as concerned with team scores at Nebraska," she said. "We just want the girls to go as well as they can."

KANSAST CITY, Mo. (UP1). - In addition to teaching KANSAS city how to play basketball, the Phoenix Suns are teaching the Kings how to count.
THE KINGS DROPRED three of four meetings to Phoenix last season and then in the first round of the playoffs to the Kings. The Kings met with Phoenix this season in October, 122-88, but dropped five straight games. The Kings then made it six straight.
The Suns claimed their sixth straight victory over the Kings this season by a 96-93 game Wednesday night in Phoenix. The Suns led in the best-of-three NBA mini-series.
Game two will be in Kansas City tonight and game three, if necessary, will by played Sunday in Phoenix.

that's the season," Fitzsimmons said.
