Losses to OU Upset Baseball Coach
By KEN STEPHENS
Kenan Surtra Writer
The 44-game University of Kansas baseball schedule for this season is the longest in the school's history. The way things are going, the season may be getting better.
In their Big Eight opener last weekend in Norma, OKa, the Jayhawks lost a trio of games to three-time defending champion Oklahoma. After dropping an embarrassing 28-1 decision on Saturday, the Hawks dropped the 'Hawks record to 3-11. OU is 18.
Playing Oklahoma was like “trying to put a forest fire with a garden house.” (Couch)
Temple described the Oklahoma squad as the best all-reound team he had seen in 21 seasons. The team had 19 victories.
He said there were only two bright spots in the Oklahoma series. One was Roger Sagle's excellent pitching, and the other was of Saturday's double header. The second was the manner in which the team continued to hustle and didn't give up after Friday's disastrous
Sauge surrendered only four hits and three unearned runs in six innings against
"I was proud of the kids because they were competing against some super players and they maintained their poise and dignity," Temple said.
Coaches Expert In Veer Offense
The Houston ver offense has replaced David Jaynes' passing attack in the University to Kansas football program. He failed to break through, the ver should do the job next fall.
"With the veer offence, you have a good balance between running and throwing the ball," Fambrigh said after practice yesterday. "The wishbone offense, like the University of Oklahoma uses, has taken many formations from the veer."
The veer offense is much like the wishbone but it has an added dimension for passing. In the veer the fullback has been replaced by a second wide receiver much like the pro set KU used last season. But the pro also has the running attack of the wishbone.
Two new assistant football coaches that have come to KU this year should help in instituting the veer into the KU offense. Bobby Baldwin, who came from the University of North Carolina and Dan Blackwelder, from Rice University, are both familiar with the veer.
Baldwin is the offensive coordinator and the most experienced with the veer. Baldwin said that KU had the material to run the veer and that he was very excited about using the veer next fall in the Big Eight.
Blackwelder is in charge of receivers and also works with the kicking specialists. He said Rice used parts of the ever last season to help him have any problems learning it for next fall.
Spring drills consist of practices on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and scrimmages on Saturdays until the spring game on May 4.
Soccer Team Defeats Wichita
Randy McClain scored both goals as the U.S. soccer club defeated the Wichita soccer club.
After a scoreless first half, McClain scored an unassisted goal early in the second half. Later in the half, he scored on a pass from Kim Hunt.
KU's next game will be at 2 p.m. Sunday at the field at the intersection of 32rd and Iowa Streets against Kansas State University.

same time the training program in cancer research was wised out."
But all federal funding through the University has not gone by the wayside. He said many fellowship or traineeship programs had been replaced by smaller programs with more specific purposes, such as the field of energy studies. KU has applied for funding of an energy program, but the approval has been doubt as to whether the University would qualify. Argerius said to be assured of funding, KU would need a special school and an ongoing program in the field of energy research.
One glaring problem this season, and especially last weekend, has been the 'Hawks anemic offense, according to Temple.
"Definitely hitting has been an extreme weakness," Temple said. "I knew before
the season that we wouldn't be good hitters, and some of our returning good hitters have been in the top five.
Hang into the Oklahoma series the 'Hawks carried a weak .219队 batting average. Against the Sooners they managed ten hits and two runs in the three game
"The problem with the college baseball season," Temple said, "is that it is too short. If you go into a slump, the season can be short." The whole team hasn't been hitting well.
Temple said the KU lineup would see some personnel changes in an effort to pull the Hawks out of their slump. He began making of those changes Saturday.
Carl Heirnich was moved from catcher to third base, Mike DePlue was moved to second base and Steve Raab replaced Heirnich at catcher.
Temple said he would be seriously considering more moves before today's session.
On defense, the Jayhawks' fielding hasn't been up to Temple's expectations.
"Before the season I didn't think our fielding would be great but I did think it would be adequate," Temple said. "But it hasn't been. We have had a tremendous amount of errors from people who should be doing better."
Pitching, regarded as one of the keys to the success of this season's squad, also appeared weak against Oklahoma. In Friday's game the Sooners ripped four KU pitchers for 25 runs on 22 hits. The Jayhawk hurlers also surrendered 18 walks.
"Bases on balls killed us," Temple said. "OU has outstanding hitters with speed, and our pitchers tried too hard to strike them and ended up walking them.
"We were definitely outclassed. But our boy played hard, and I can't ask for my best."
Temple said that critics of KU baseball had to realize that the team wasn't competing on the same level as teams like Oklahoma.
"There is a tremendous gap between the programs of the two schools, financially disparate."
EUROPE
Oklahoma's principal advantage is that they have full scholarships for virtually every man on the squad. KU has only a few scholarships, according to Temple.
PARIS
The Sooners also benefit from excellent weather and a fine facility in which to play. The bleachers and grandstand area at KU's Quilegly Field are inadequate, temple said.

Temple said that he didn't expect KU to face competition similar to that of Oklahoma except when the 'Hawks play Oklahoma State University.
"Right now we are playing the best people we have," Temple said, "I just have to try to get them to relax a little bit more and get their maximum potential out of them. The changes we make might or might not solve the problem."
