'Shoulda swung'
KU shortship Steve Jelt grimzes after taking a strike in recent baseball action. Jeltz hasn't been caught looking too often this season, especially on the base paths, Jeltz, who holds KU's all-time stolen base record has stolen eight bases this season in nine attempts.

Baseball team has busv weekend
By KENDAVIS Sports Writer
With a 94 record, it would appear that the Kansas baseball队 is purling along smoothly in the early stages of the season. But KU Coach Floyd Temple is the first to admit that the Jayhawks have some hinks to be worked out.
The Jayhawks have woven seven of their games against the Cincinnati Reds in the season. A more of that kind of action this weekend with double-headers against Baker University today and Fort Hays State tomorrow is 1:30 p.m. today and 1 p.m. at Quietley Field.
TEMPIE IS hoping for some improvement by KU players in two areas this weekend: field and base
The Jayhawks have committed 30 errors in their first 13 games for a .928 fielding percentage. Last season KU had 77
"STEVE JELTZ is the only one right now." Temple said.
"And when you can't steal and you have people that can run, you're limiting your offense. It's just an individual thing that they've got to work on."
"Our outfield play has been good, but the infielders have got to start concentrating and relaxing. Our pitchers are basically control pitchers and for that reason we're going to hit a lot of ground balls hit against us. We need to field them."
"We're still not really fielding what I hope we 're capable of.' We've said yesterday. "We have to have good defence."
One area that Temple has been pleased with is the KU team, who beat the Bronx Bucks and Scott Wright is batting .417 with a team-leading RBIs. Roger Riley follows with a .368 mark and Jelz has闪击 with the .349 mark which ties him with MATT and RIPPLE.
Temple's other concern is the Jayhawks' base-steing record. KU has swiped 19 bases so far this season, but six Jayhawk runners have been gunned down. In the past two seasons they've speeded effectively in both the stolen base and the hit-and-run.
attempts. He now has 48 stolen bases in his career and has only caught six times.
"LAST YEAR we stole 74 out of 82 attempts and that's an outstanding record," Temple said. "But we're not getting our leads and we're not getting a good enough jump against the pitcher.
Mark Gile, Wichita freshman, get four his in Tuesdays's double-header with Benedictine and is now hitting. 333. Gile has played a steady second base as well. He hasn't committed an error in the last six games.
"The stolen base has been an effective weapon for us the last two years. And I told the team that if we don't use it, we will not win."
TEMPIE SAID his starting pitching in today's twinhill will be Mike Watt and Kurt Kafiae. Watt, 2, has struggled with the appearances this season, giving up 13 earned runs in 9% of innings, 1-4, will be making his second start for the Jayhawks.
Shortstop Steve Jelz hasn't shown any signs of slacking
he's a forceful feet-footed junior already has eight shots in nine attempts.
He also has 16 rickets.
Jeltz set a school record last year, swiping 28 bases in 31
Eleventh-hour Bruins make good, look good
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – The UCLA Bruns, a team that came into the NCAA basketball playoffs virtually through the season, will continue of walking out the front this weekend.
"We've dominated the NCAA tournament the last 15 years and we have a responsibility to play well here," UCLA coach Larry Brown said yesterday.
His young, enthusiastic team will meet Purdue in the national semifinals tomorrow. In the other semifinal game at the Market Square arena. Louisville will face fowa.
An 11th-hour choice by the NCAA selection committee for this 42nd tournament, the Bruins have proven themselves with success in the league, far including one over-raped DePaul.
"I first realized we could get to the Final Four after we beat DePaul," said Roder Foster, one of the freshman guards in the team. "We got it, we got it, we got it. Ohio State, I realized we could win it."
Old Dominion and Clermson, in the West Regional finals, were the other UCLA victims in the Bruins' charge to Indianapolis.
It has been a long and winding road to the Final Four for UCLA and one not without humps. The Bruins, who have dominated the Pac-12, virtually own the NCAA playoffs through
most of the 1960s and 1970s, had a less than auspicious season.
Not only did they not win the Pac-10, but finished a dimal fourth and lost nine games overall. Their 17-4 record did little to hurt them, so they tournament berth, as Dave Gavitt excels.
"Hardly anyone wanted the Bruns in the tournament," points out Gavitt, the Providence coach, the director and a member of the ACLS selected team. He is also coach of the U.S. Olympic team.
But still, there was the UCLA image, the mystique that still lingered from the John Wooden years when the Bruins won a record 16-5. The team went on to win a 48-team field to fill the latest in history.
"Once the Bruins were in, nobody wanted them in their region," said Gavitt. "Then they were treating them at the Boston Celtics."
And so the Bruins were accepted after long and heated arguments among the NCAA committee members.
And they've been playing that way of late, too.
"I guess we're not in such dire straits as some people thought, 'Brown, who is in his wheelchair?' But we felt people felt people felt they didn't belong in the NCAA tourney, but I knew we were among the NCAA
48 teams in the country after the way we played the second half of the season."
like UCLA. The Hawkeyes finished tied for four in the big Ten conference and lost eight games. And just like UCLA, they have been playing excellent ball recently.
The Bruins will have to continue to play that kind of ball if they want to beat Purdue and towering Joe Barry Carroll, its 7-foot-2 All-America center.
They come into the Final Four on the wings of victories over Virginia Commonwealth, North Carolina State, Syracuse and Georgetown in the East Regionals.
"The only player on the West Coast that compares to Joe Barry performs for the Los Angeles Lakers," Bain said, in a reference to Kareem Abul-Jabbar.
Carroll has lived up to his All-America billing in this tourney, leading the Bombermakers to the Mideast Regional championship with victories over LaSalle, St. John's Big Ten champion Indiana and Dale, Coast conference playoff winner, Dakke.
Louisville, ranked second, made its way to the Final Four with overtime victories over Kansas State and Texas A&M and a rout of LSU

KU's women's team will have a chance to turn around what has started out to be a disappointing season Sunday as the U.S. team was on Iowa State University in Lawrence.
coach Mark Hasking. "The girls may not think so because they've been losing a lotately, but they've been playing excellent games," he said, gradual improvement in their play."
Kansas won only one of four matches over spring break on its way to a 4-5 overall record. KU lost matches to North Texas, Southwest Texas and Oklahoma State in three games. Texas A&I to capture six place in the Olympic Olympics In衣 Inlee, Texas.
Marcie Esry, Independence, Mo., freshman, and the No. 2 singles player, agreed about the team's improvement.
"When we were in Texas we got a lot closer," Esry said. "Before that we were never too close. While the men team grew more and more resigned, losing. We are going to do a lot better."
