He's seldom in his office and rarely 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 RUI golf teams. IT'S A CHALLENGE that Randall, a California native, enthusiastically accepts. He took the position of director of golf at the club where he learned to play when he began coaching the men's team.

The two teams get along well and sometimes practice together. practices began, "THERE IS NO competition," Randall said. The first men's tournament, the Gulf Coast international, will be March 16-20 on Padre island, Texas. The women's outing will be March 17 in Staten Island at Hatschelle International at Hatschelle, 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. Randall has no plans to expand the number of tours the two teams take next year. That's where Tommy Fischer, a graduate student from Overland Park, comes in. Fischer works with the team to help grow the seed bank. "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, the cost of not on weekends. Second, our budget is limited." The optimistic Randall is already looking ahead to recruiting for next year. "They are doing all they can do to help us," he said. "The outlook for teams next year will depend on the recruiting season." be said. THAT SHOULDN'T be a problem, according to Sarah Burgess, a member of the women's team. Randall said he thought that he and the KU athletic department were working together. "Our coach is a lot of help, a definite addition," she said. "He is enough to make any high school player." Birdsong leads Kings past San Antonio, 111-97 Kings are still battling for a playoff berth, along with Houston, 33-36, and Golden State, 33-34. Besides breaking a winless streak in San Antonio, the Kings' upset victory also broke the Pac-10's losing streak. Otis Birdsong scored a game-high 39 points from 54.2 yards. As the Kings, he defended the Lakers' 117-97. Spurs back into contention. San Antonio outscored Kansas City 30-20 in the final quarter. THE KINGS outscored the Spurs 27-14 in the second quarter and took a 56-40 lead at the half. Kansas City built a 26-point advantage early in the fourth quarter before the Spurs pulled to within eight points, 102-94, with 3:39 remaining in the game. SAN ANTONIO, Texas-After nine consecutive losses, the Kansas City Kings have finally beaten the San Antonio Spurs on the Snurs' home court. Swimmers want to swipe Big 8 title from Huskers Besides Moore's 16 points, Brewer and Wiley each scored eight. Other San Antonio scorers in double figures were Rich Johnson with 12 points and Paul Silas with 11. By JIM SMALL Sports Writer BRDSONG, THE fifth leading score in the NBA, has scored in double figures in every game except one this season and has scored more than 20 points in 46 games. IT WAS the first victory for the Kings in 10 games at the Hemisfair. Coupled with Boston's 108-101 victory over Houston, it boosted the Kings to a national title. The Midwest Division with a record of 34-38. The Kings, who lost to the Los Angeles Lakers 99-92 Tuesday night, made more than 60 percent By United Press International Heading into last year's Big Eight men's swimming championship, the Kansas men's swim team had beaten Nebraska twice by 38-25. The Big Eight men who ended up taking the conference crown. The Spurs lead the division with a record of 45-25 and have already clinched a spot in the NBA for the first time since 1986. KANSAS WILL BE out for revenge against Nebraska. The Huckers snapped KU's two-thirds lead in the game. Kansas coach Bill Spahn said he hoped KU's 84 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. "We had beaten them twice in dues last year," Spahn said. "I think that our team entered the conference meet a little overconfident. The team failed to realize that we are a team in a dual meet and beating them in a conference meet are two different things." But the Jayhawks have learned from their mistakes. Sohn said. THE PROPER ATTITUDE and two Big Eight Championships might help the Jayhawks upset Nebraska, which is favored in the roast. 400 individual medleys and Wright is the defender champion in the 100 and 300 "We know better now," he said. "Our attitude heading into conference is much superior to what it was last year." "Steve and Gardner know what it takes to win in the Big Eight," Spann said. "They're going for a win." 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 freshen Krey in the 400 individual medley, sophomore Chuck Neumann in the 200 junior and junior Jim Rowland in the 200 butterfly. Spahn said the key to the meet would be the diving events. "Nebraska 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 year." $1.50 reg.

Temporary housing is available for those who are too late to be assigned Cliff said the demand for the temporary space was very difficult to predict. Last year, for example, a rush of men submitting contracts in August created an unexpected need for temporary space, she said. "The year before that, we had an overflow of women," she said. Corbin, GSP and Oliver Halls, traditionally fill up for women's space to ORP occupancy reports. GSP-Corbin is occupied almost entirely by freshmen. "There is a tradition about living here," said Margaree Greenfield, GSP resident director. "Many of the girls are the children or the sisters and the cousins of women who lived here when they were in school." The Office of Residential Programs has not yet compiled the statistics of the changes returned so far, but no drastic changes are anticipated. Partners who are anticlimates, Cliff and Candlin said. Scott Miller, resident driver of Oliver, said the reputation of the largest co-dehall men in town had changed since 1976, when Oliver had survived a runover rate and was known as "the zoo." "We've already handed out about 400 contests to Oliver residents who will be tested." Lewis, the other all-women hall, is "pretty well distributed with some freshmen, a lot of juniors and sophomores, and a few seniors and graduate students." Oliver now houses about 40 percent of the population that has a turnover rate of approximately 30%. For men's space, Oliver, Ellsworth and Hashingter Halls fill fastest. "Some residents were down at the desk the first day to pick up contracts for next year," said Jane Tuttle, resident director of Ellsworth. according to Kathy Rose, assistant resident director of Lewis. Ur La About 25 percent of Ellsworth's residents are freshmen, she said. McCollum Hall is traditionally the slowest residence hall to fill, according to occupancy reports. McCollum houses about 10 percent graduate students and 30 percent foreign students, but does not house freshmen under 19 years old. The reports show that the male-female ratio among the nine residence halls has been about 40 percent men to 60 percent women, the past several years, and students living in residence halls comprise a little less than 20 percent of total KU enrollment. Templin and Joseph E. Pearson Halls, both all-men halles, fill more slowly. According to Marvin Mickelson, JRP resident director, JRP houses about 60 percent freshmen, and is "a good place to live because it's rather quiet." Hashinger's assistant resident director, Paul Nance, said that Hashinger housed about 50 percent returning students. Hashinger is the most expensive of the KU residence halls because of its theatre and other special arts facilities, he said. "There tends to be more noise and more vandalism when there are more fresh-ly cleaned." Allen said, "because they don't have the role models that upperclassmen provide." Glenn Allen, Templin's resident director, said that until this year, Templin had mostly upperclassmen. This year about half of Templin's resident were freshmen. PARK25 APARTMENTS FOR ACTIVE PEOPLE...
