Part of the 19 man contingent of Kansas Jayhawks that will be traveling to Houston this weekend for the Astrodome Federation national championships will be junior pole vaulter Bill Hatcher. A graduate of Shawnee Mission North, Hatcher vaulted 16-0 two weeks ago in the Oklahoma City Inviteball meet. A vault of that same height gained him fourth place at last year's NCAA Indoor meet in Detroit. The Jayhawks will go into the meeting to defend the title and compete in three events for the league with two team titles in their only previous indoor competition this year—the first coming at the Liberty Bowl Invitational in December and the second coming at Oklahoma City.
Temple Pleased by Baseball Prospects
Kansas baseball coach Flow Temple thinks his club clubs could be better in league title in 21 years as he prepares 21 players for the 1972 season.

every member of that hurling corps returns. Three juniors finished with an ERA under meier, and two under meier, Overland Park, was 4-3 with a 1.38; righthander Bob Wolf, Kansas City, Mo., was 4+ with a 1.64 and lefty Corky Walker, Baltimore, W. Va., was 3-4 with a 1.91.
KANAS'S PITCHING STAFF had a combined earned run average of 2.29 last season, one of the highest in college history for the record best in the Jawahars since a 14-5 mark in 1956. Kannas made its best showing in the Big Eight since taking the title in 1948 and finishing, second to Iowa State.

"I don't know which three I'll pick for the rotation in league games," he said, hurling for his hurlers. "I want to see what they do in scrimmage situations when they are on defense."
Getting outside at this time of the year could be a problem with such an early start. All teams had been staged in Allen Field House.
"The pitchers can get a good head cage," Temple noted. "But, we need to get in some defensive work to get those positions set up."
FIRST BASE AND shortstop are filled in the infield. Skip James, senior from Overland Park, plays center for second team all-league choice, will be at first base. All Big Eight Paul Womble, senior from Kansas City, a 379 hitter and the leader with six, returns at start.
For the first time in four years
Temple must see a second-bachelor's degree
graduated. Top candidate is Bob Hansen, a freshman from Hutchinson.
A vacancy arose at third base when Keith Leippman, All-Big Bennett and a 417 average, became a scholastic casualty. The position is wide open. Temple plans to try sophomores Don Lahbi from the college and Pamiller from Merriam, at the hot corner, and there could be others. One possibility is Wolf, who might similarly as a utility man last season.
TWO REGULARS RETURN in the outfield. Biff Temple, senior from Lawrence and son of the star Kaepernick, returned to field. A knee injury forced him to play first base most of 1970 when he hit .313. Ken Carpio, senior from Kansas City, hit .300 as the team move over to left field this spring.
Larry Matson, senior from Oklahoma City, returns to handle the loss of 200, but came up with crucial hints in victories over Missouri, Nebraska and Iowa State. He did not make making only two errors all season and handed pitcher well. Fresh-faced Williams enhance adds depth to this position.
THREE TRANSFERS HELP make a strong position even deeper. Lefthander Steve Corder. sophomore from Oklahoma City. Mason Righlhander Ron Mason, junior from Tulsa, switches to KU from North Texas State, and righthander Vince Shawyer, junior from Prairie Village, and from Tulsa University.
Iowa State held a 59-10胜 with 8 minutes left in the game, before the Cornuskers, led by 6-10 center Chuck Jauru, paced to just take a 60-9 advantage with just over 3 minutes left.
Cyclones scoring ace Gene Mack tied the game at 6844 on a playoff in the game. In the game, Nebraks then went into a stall, and a last second shot by Cormishur Marv Stewart gave the game went into an overtime.
