Swimming Kempf Brothers Potential NCAA Finalists
Kansan Sports Writer
By BILL WILLETS
For the past two years Tom Kempf has been a big name in swimming at the U.S. National Aquatic Championship.
An All-American freestyle swimmer in his freshman year, last year the Bartlesville, Oka, junior was named swimmer of the year in the Big Eight and finished first in the conference meet in both the 500 and 1,500-vard freestyle.
In addition, Kempf holds three variability records in the 500, 1,000 and 1,650-yard records.
This year freshman Gary Kempf has joined his brother on a KU team which coach Dick Reamon calls "the best squad we have ever had in terms of our own growth." The team is seeking a sixth straight championship.
Since joining the squarq Gady has had outstanding performances in KU's first year.

Fairbanks Could Sign With Patriots Today
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) - University of Oklahoma coach Chuck Fairbanks said Thursday he would become the new head coach and general manager of the New
KU Invades ISU's Hilton
To complicate matters, the Jayhawks will be facing a greatly improved ISU squad which leads the conference with a 3-1 record and is 12-4 overall. Last year the Cyclones were sixth in conference play with a 5-9 mark.
The University of Kansas will invade the Hilton Coliseum at Ames, Iowa, Saturday night for a Big Eight Conference basketball game and Jay Hawk coach Ted Gowens a "must win" must.
The Cyclones will be paced by 6-foot-7 forward Clint Harris and guards Martinez Denmon and Bill Benson, all of whom are averaging in double figures.
1:58:8 clocking in the 200-yard backstroke account for KU's only first place finish as the 'Hawks challenged a strong and heavily favored Southern Methodist University
Benson, a 6-foot-2 junior, is averaging 17.3 points per game.
Harris has been the standout for the Cyclones leading the team in scoring (18.1), rebounding (11.6), and field goal percentage (47.8).
Denmon, averaging 14.1, hit last season at a 16.8 clip to lead the team and was named first overall in 2013.
"It appeared in the Kansas City tournament that Iowa State was the equal of any of the other teams in the semifinals," Owens said.
Owens said that KU would have to play extremely well to score a victory.
"We need a win badly," Owens said. "A very will put us back in the conference."
The Jayhawks are 1-2 in league play and 5-10 overall.
Owens is wary of ISU's "big three"—Harrison, Dennom, and Benson.
"Dennon hurt us last year," Owens said,
"and Benson can shoot well. The Harris boys (Clint and 64foot-2 center-forward Wes) are both very good players."
Owens plans to use both a zone and man-
to-man defense against the Cyclones.
"We'll use both and see what is most effective." Owens said.
Owens puts no changes in his starting lineup of Danny Knight, Rick Suttle, Tom Kivisto, Marshall Rogers, and either Mike Fiddelke or Nino Saimon.
According to Gwens, the 'Hawks big problem is a lack of consistency.
"I's just a matter of getting it all pieces together," she said. "When we do we'll be fine."
Tipoff time is 7:30 p.m. in Hilton Coliseum in Ames.

England Patriots if "suitable contractual arrangements" were finalized.
Fairbanks said the only way he wouldn't sign with the professional football team would be if the written contract differed from his understanding of the verbal term.
Fairbanks, 39, flew to Boston Thursday afternoon and said he would meet with Patriots officials Friday, presumably to work out the final details of what was believed to be a $1 million, five-year contract.
The professional football team reportedly offered Fairbanks a package at least equal to, and perhaps exceeding, the $200,000 required by the coach Joe Paterno turned down earlier

If Fairbanks accepts the post Friday, and Oklahoma officials indicated there was little chance of a last-minute snag, Barry Switzer, 35, assistant head coach for the last three years, probably would be the leading candidate to succeed him.
In a tersely worded statement, Fairbanks said, "Whether or not I accept or reject the offer of head coach and general manager of the New England Patriots will be based on suitable contractual arrangements between the New England football team."
Dr. Paul Drask, university president, said Fairbanks talked to him Thursday morning and "motified me that he has been offered the position of head coach and general manager of the New England Patriots."
CHICAGO (AP) - UCLA's fop-ranked Bruins, led by Bill Walton's season-high 32 points, tied college basketball's consecutive victory record at 60 Thursday night by wearing down Chicago Loyola, 87-73, in the winup of a Chicago Stadium doubleheader.

squad before setting for second place in a field of seven.
The effort by Gary Kempf fell. 8 seconds short of the University Division qualifying standard for the 1973 NCAA Championships and was the seventh best time in the nation this year. It was. 2 seconds short of a KU varsity record.
In his most recent outing, a dual meet against Nebraska on Jan. 20, Gary scored a first in the 1,000-yard freestyle as the 'Hawks coasted to a 74-39 victory.
Is Gary as good as you? Toreamon said that comparisons were not important, since they were the best.
"Both have national potential," Reamon said. "Individually, they are the best bets."
Reason believes that both Kemps can and will improve, but does not expect outstanding times immediately. The KU squad is currently undergoing two-a-day workouts, spending as much as six hours a day in the water.
The Big Eight Conference meet will be hosted by Kansas March 1-3. The NCAA meet, for those who qualify, is slated for March 22-4 in Knoxville, Tenn.
"We have 10 to 12 swimmers who can qualify for nationals," Reamon said. "The rest of the squad is pointing toward the conference meet."
"Tom and Gary are both good work swimmers," Reason said, "and anyone working as hard as they do in practice is going to be tired."
Once a swimmer qualifies for the NCAA, he can earn an All-American rating by winning the national championship.
Tom Kempf
Tom has nothing but praise for his younger brother.
"He's going great, I just can't say enough." Torn said.
Tom, like coach Reamon, expects Gary to be a better swimmer than he was in high school. Tom said that Gary is bigger and thinner, and seems to be "coming into his own."
When asked about his own progress, he described it as "behind pace." As would be told by others.
"I think my chances are pretty good," Iam said, and "I'm feeling good. Making the right choices."
Tom feels that he had little to do with Gary's decision to attend KU.
"I told the coach his swim times and was up here in (lawrence) a few times, but she wasn't going to swim," I said.

Although Lockwood admits that he does not expect to upset the Iowa State team, he said that this year's KU squad was also stronger than it had been in recent years and that they would not be embarrassed by the Cyclones.
'Hawks Test Team Depth With I-State
Number one ranked Iowa State will match routines with the University of Kansas gymnastics team at 2 p.m., Saturday, in Robinson Gymnastia in what KU Coach Bob Lockwood calls the most exciting gymnasium weekend in Lawrence.
Several colors in suede and smooth leathers to choose from. Narrow and medium widths, sizes to 10.
“Overall, we really don't have the depth that we would like to have, but I think this year's team has more bright spots and a lot of new talent. Our own team I have coached,” Lockwood said.
Showing flashes of brilliance, Marc Joseph, Lawrence senior and co-captain, has been the leading scorer this season. The 160 pound all-around specialist moved into the top ranks of the all time KU scores last season with a K-SATE meet score of $11.55.
One Group of Krinkle Patent and Leather Boots were to $24. $10.99
This season at the Rocky Mountain Open Joseph hit a near perfect perplex bar routine, scoring a 9.5, which is a school record.
"Marc is the strongest gymnast on the team," Lockwood said, "and he provides the team with a mature leadership. As soon as he improves his consistency I think he will be one of the finer all-around men in the conference."
McCoy's shoes
Lockwood said that Cooper, who placed fourth on the all time KU scoring list for the high bar, had improved greatly and was confident to do well throughout conference competition.
Complementing the Jayhawk strength will be the other in the Warren Cooper Lake and high bank lakes.
