He's seldom in his office and is at home. As the grass grows greener and greener, the more often Randall can be found on the golf course. Randall, for the first time, is coaching both the men's and women's KU golf teams. IT'S A CHALLENGE that Randal, a California native, enthusiastically accepts. He took the position of director of golf at the San Diego Country Club and when he began coaching the men's golf team. Randall's other duties include administrative work, running the junior golf programs and giving private lessons. Randall replaced Curtis Katz as basketball coach. Bahan is an assistant women's basketball coach. Both teams have been practicing since the beginning of this semester, preparing for spring tournaments. When the cold weather prohibited their outdoor practice, Randall arranged for a practice area inside one of the buildings at Haskell Indian Junior College. In return, he advised Haskell student. But with last week's lesson, he was able to be seen able to practice on the Alvamar course. "Every day we get like this is a bonus," he said last week. The two teams get along well and sometimes practice together. practice together. "THERE IS NO competition." Rendell said. The first men's tournament, the Gulf Coast International, will be March 16-20 on Padre Island, Texas. The women's first outing will be March 17 at Montana High School Invitational at Huntville, Texas, March 30-31. The men are scheduled to golf in five tournaments this spring, the women in four. Both teams will finish their regular season with the Big Eight Championships at Alvamar. The number of tournaments can present time conflicts for Randall. tending meets. Fischer is also an apprentice in the Pro Golf Association program. That's where Tommy Fischer, a graduate student from Overland Park, comes in. Fischer is the son of Tommy Fischer and Katherine. Randall has no plans to expand the number of tours the two teams take next year. "TRIPS ARE worthwhile, but there are two things that stop us from expanding. First, the amount of school the team members can miss, and second, we don't get out on weekends. Second, our budget is limited." Randall said he thought that he and the KU athletic department were working together, and he added, "They are doing all they can do to help us," he said. The optimistic Randall is already looking ahead to recruiting for next year. "The outlook for teams next year will depend on the recruiting season." be said. **THAT SHOULDN'T be a problem, according to Marsh Burgess, a member of the women's team.** "Our coach is a lot of help, a definite addition," she said. "He is enough to make any high school student feel confident."

It was the Midwest Division with a record of 34-36. Kings are still battling for a playoff berth, along with Celtics. The 33-34 before last night's game against Utah.

The Kings, who lost to the Los Angeles Lakers 40-39 Tuesday, made more than 60 percent Swimmers want to swipe Big 8 title from Huskers By JIM SMALL Sports Writer Heading into last year's Big Eight men's swimming championship, the Kansas men's swim team had beaten Nebraska twice by a score of 10-7. The team who ended up taking the conference crown. Kansas coach B Spain said he hoped KU's 84-68 victory over Nebraska two weeks ago was not a bad omen as the Jayhawks compete at this year's Big Eight Championship in Norman, Okla. The meet starts today and runs through Saturday. KANSAS WILL BE out for revenge against Nebraska. The Huskers snapped KU's two-year championship winning streak last year. "We had beaten them twice in duals last year," Spahn said. "I think that our team entered the conference meet a little overconfident. The team failed to realize that we had been in a dual meet and beating them in a conference meet are two different things." "We know better now," he said. "Our attitude heading into conference is much superior to what it was last year." But the Jayhawks have learned from their mistakes, Spahn said. THE PROPER ATTITUDE and two Big Eight Championships might help the Jayhawks upset Nebraska, which is favored in the next. 400 individual medleys and Wright is the defending champion in the 100 and 200 backstrokes. "Steve and Gardner know what it takes to be a leader," he said. " Their leadership is important to our team." Graves and Wright won't be alone in their efforts to return the conference championship to KU. SOPHOMORE BOB Vince, who recorded the top conference time in the 500 freestyle, broke the school record in the 1,000 freestyle earlier this year. Kansas also will seek support from freshman Ken Grey in the 400 individual medley, soprano Chuck Neumann in the 200 butterfly and junior Jim Rowland in the 200 butterfly. Spahn said the key to the meet would be the diving events. "Nebraka is, by far, the strongest diving team in the conference," he said. "If we can stay with them in the diving while out swimming them, we can beat them." ALTHOUGH MOST Big Eight coaches have picked Nebraska to repeat as conference champion, Kansas holds several of the best regular-season times in the conference. Jayhawk swimmers now hold top conference marks in the 200 individual medley, the 200 breaststroke and the 500 freestyle events. "The team has made great progress this week."
