Swim hopes high at NCAA meet
By CHICK HOWLAND
Sports Writer
Out of the hundreds of top amateur NCAA swimming and diving championships at Harvard University in Cambridge, only five will be representing Kansas.
Although KU's chance of bringing home a team title with five qualifiers is remote, the dream of KU swimming coach Spain Stupar in the scoring column may finally come true.
"WE'VE GOT some real good shots," Spahn said. "Every one of our entries has got a chance to score. Based on last year's times, we should score some points.
"It is probably the toughest meet in the world outside of the Olympic trials. It's so hard to get there, and it's hard to place."
Only the top 12 finishers in each event
earn points for their team and are subsequently named All-America swimmers.
Spain will spin most of his hopes on Steve Graves, who has made the trip to the NCAA meet every year he has been at KU. A junior, Graves has qualified in three individual events—the 20-yard individual and the 100- and 200-yard breast-stroke.
ACCORDING TO Spahn, Graves has a good chance of scoring in either breast-stroke event.
"If he swims the same times that he did in the Big Eight, it should place him." Spahn said. "This year's time would have placed him in last year's NCAA."
In addition to competing in three individual events, Graves will join Jim Sauer, Brent Barnes and Gardner Wright in the 400-valed medley relay.
Wright, who is the Big Eight champion in the 200-vard backstroke, is substituting for
Rick Jenkins on the relay team, Jenkins,
Kevin Patterson, and Jordan Williams at KU's 400-yard mule team that placed 26th at last year's NCAA meet, was unable to swim this season because of a should.
ANOTHER KU qualifier who is hoping to have a few seconds off his times is Chuck Nieman, who will speak at conference meet in the 100 breathstroke with a 7:42 time. Neumann and Wright both are
Spahn said the relay team would have to shave about two seconds off last year's 3:22.70 time to place.
"I want to become the first freshman All-American at KU." Wright said. "It's hard to find freshman All-Americans. I hope I don't choke.
Although the odds are long that the pair can turn in performances that will place them in the top 12 of their particular events, the fact that they were capable of answering the challenge
"I'll be swimming against the best in the nation, the best in the world. It would be nice if both of us made it."
"Neumann is the same as Wright. It's hard to knock off a second, but if everything goes right, he certainly has a chance."
"THEY'RE PRETTY tough kids, very competitive," Spaun said. "They look forward to meets like this. I think they will do very well."
"Wright has a very good chance in the 200- year breaststroke. He's within a half second of what it took last year."
According to Spain, Florida is the muese a favorite to capture the team scoring title. A strong challenge should come from last year's champions, California-Berkley.
Preliminary rounds start tomorrow. The meet concludes Saturday.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. OAP)--All-Star Kansas City Royals catcher Darr尔 Portrell, reportedly undergoing treatment for alcoholism, will still represent the Sealy Mattress Co. in regional advertisement, a company spokesman said yesterday.
Bates' jumper put Portland ahead 103-102, then the Bizzars hit a free throw from Dave Foster. The Cavaliers rebounded a field goal attempt by Scott Wedman of Kansas City with four seconds left.
The agreement was reached just two days before he reported to the club's spring training camp in Fort Myers, Fla. Gale said. Porter will be paid in undisclosed amount to the commercials. One already made to two or three mules. The schedule is to make two or three mules.
Porter left the camp March 14, and Royals moved to Oklahoma. They received medical treatment for a conditional problem. Porter's father, Ray Porter, later disclosed that his son had entered an abusive relationship.
Bates, whose sensational late-game heroics helped Portland, to three recent victories, scored eight points.
But Kansas City coach Cotton Fitzsimmons said of Bates, "He must have left his Krypton at home tonight. He sure wasn't a Superman.
"If I think there was a superman out there tonight, it was Twardik. When he's healthy and playing well, Portland is a very good basketball team."
