Women choose to host meet
The KU women's track team, originally scheduled to compete in the Iowa State Invitational tomorrow, will instead host its own meet in Memorial Stadium.
"I instead of going to Iowa State, we thought we'd just have our own meet here," head coach Carla Coffey said yesterday. "It will be the last chance for some of these people to compete before the Big Eight meet."
The Big Eight Championships will be May 10 and 11 in Manhattan.
Athletes from Kansas State and Missouri will compete with members of the KU team in the Lady Jayhawk Open, scheduled to begin at noon with the 10,000-meter run. The final event, the mile race, is scheduled to begin at 3 m.
Blue Jays fly by Royals 10-2
TORONTO — Blue Jays hurler Leau丝赖 credited his victory yesterday to the weather in Toronto, which he thought was a lot like Goldlocks' porridge.
"It was not too cold, it was not too hot, it was just right," said Leal, who allowed only one hit over the first two eight inings to lead to the 1st2 lead and two outs to go in the ninth.
"In my first three games, the weather was too cold — it bothered me," said the pretty right-hander who struck out three and walked none while evening his record at 11. "Today was perfect. I'm from Venezuela: I'm not used to the cold."
The Jays were led by designated hitter Jeff Burroughs, who belted his first homer in a Toronto uniform, his first since June 12 of last year. In all, the Jays collected 14 hits and scored 10 runs for their highest output of the season.
Leal was happy with his performance and especially pleased with the support of the team.
Kansas City third baseman George Brett was surprised at the Jays performance.
"You lose a heartbreaker like yesterday's game (7-6) and usually it leaves a team flat." Brett said "They got off to a day, today, and we never got notracted."
Burroughs had five RHIs on the day on which he triple in addition to his three run hits.
Leal had faced the minimum 24 batters over eight innings but yielded solo homers to Greg Pryor and Onix Concepcion in the ninth inning. Steve Baldoni had an infield single off Leal in the fifth but was erased on a double play
The Blue days exploded for six runs in the third off loser Bret Saberhagen, 12. Tony Fernandez played and scored after Damaso Garcia bloomed a single to center and Royals center field Willie Wilson threw wild, sending Garcia to third. Garcia scored on Lloyd Moseby's one-out single.

Kansas' No.3 player takes Big Eight title; women place second

WESTWOOD — Kansas 'No. 3 singles player Christine Parr watched the shot of Oklahoma's Sandra McGilvray hit wide of the court yesterday at Woodside Racquet
That shot made Parr the No. 3 Big Eight singles champion, the first championship won by anyone under head coach Scott Perelman
Parr stayed calm and reserved when the ball hit wide. But after she shook McGilray's hand, Parr threw her racket up in the air and hugged Perelman.
"It's about time," Parr exclaimed.
Parr's victory also was the pivotal match in the jayhawks winning second place honors overall. KU was just one point ahead of the Sooners and, in addition to Parr's win, needed to win its three remaining doubles matches.
KANSAS WON ALL of the doubles matches
finish two point heads of Oklahoma, good
form.
But the championship belonged to Parr, who lost to McGilray earlier this season in Lawrence. In that match, Parr built big leads in both sets but lost her concentration and lost 6-4, 6-4. She was not going to let that happen yesterday.
happened, since he."
"I felt like I could really play with her," Parr said. "I knew it was going to be a tough, hard match.
"I think I was playing a lot more intense." She gave Perealman a lot of credit for her victory. Parr said she thought the drills the coach had been helping helped her get ready for the tournament.
vocabulary
"THOSE TWO GO hand-in-hand," he said.
"I'll tell you, she's got as much ability as anyone I've ever coached.
"I saw that look in her eye. She decided she wasn't going to be denied."
Parr and Perelman also thought the presence of Parr's mother, Peggy, really helped her to victory. Mrs. Parr made the decision that Mrs. Parr was very happy to see her daughter win.
Perealm thought Tuesday's victory was Parre's greatest of the season, but yesterday's victory was not.
Before the start of Parr's match, Perealm took the team aside for a little conference. KU found the going tough in the morning and wanted to get the team ready for the afternoon.
"You know, Perelman just told me that my being here may have helped her." Mrs. Parr哭
IN THE MORNING, both the No. 2 and No. 3 doubles teams failed to make the semifinals. No 2 singles player Tracy Treps lost her third place match, and Perelman was worried that things were getting a little out of control.
After Parr's singles victory, she had half an hour to rest before her No. 2 doubles match with Treps, her partner. They easily won in the first round, and Jenny Motell, M6, 6.2, for third place.
"I told them how upset I was," he said. "I didn't think we played up to our capabilities. I told them we could control our own destiny."
Marie Hibbard and Laura Runnels also finished third in the No. 3 doubles bracket, defeating Iowa Sara Berres and Danny Garcia in the women's team of Barbara Inman and Janelle Bolen
WESTWOOD — Christine Paar, Kansas junior, returns the ball to her opponent in a double-digit victory over the Jayhawks yesterday at the Big Eight Tennis Tournament in Kansas City, Kan.
finished fifth with a 7-6, 6-2 victory over Colorado's Shelly Bartlett and Annemarie
EARLIER IN THE day, Runnels lost her No. 4 singles championship match to Robyn Lamb of Oklahoma State, 6-1, 6-4. Hibbard also failed in her bid for the No. 5 singles title, losing to the Cowboys' Stacy Swanson, 6-4, 6-2.
Debbie Coleman finished third in the No. 5 singles bracket with a 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 victory over Oklahoma's Maeve Donnelly.
"I've been a tough, stressful two days, Prelim said. "This is a funny team. They are working together."
Although the season is over for the women, Perelman has two more days of play left. The team will need to win a game in order to stay in contention.
Cubs quiz weeds out fair-weather fans
"How do you think the Cubbes are going to do?" The Groothen's Yuppie man brightly gripped Satsla Grosse. "What?"
That was all Slats had to hear. He set his beer down and stared contemptuously at the man.
Then he said, "Answer a simple question what high school did Phil Cavarretta attend?"
Quick as a flash, the young man answered,
"Phil who?"
"That's what I thought." Slats snarled. "You are not a true Cub fan. A true Cub fan never says Cubbies. You are one of these parasitic, bandwagon-hopping, trend-following, glory-seeking, know-nothing bubble heads who showed up last year for the sole purpose of standing in front of a TV camera in a sports-theme bar while holding a finger in the air and babbling that you are No. 1. Any true Cub fan knows what high school Phil Cavaretta attended. So get out of my sight, you boob.
As the young man stunk away, Slats said to me. "I think it is time."

Most softballs can't talk, but one talked to Tracy Bunge yesterday.
"The pitch was this high," Bunge, a KU women's softball pitcher, said, pointing to her belt. "It looked big coming in. It said, 'come hit me.'"
Bunge obeyed. She lined the ball up the middle to bring first baseman Lauren Cramer home for the winning run in the second game. She scored a three-run Witae State yesterday at Jayhawk Field.
AU won the first game 4+ and the second 4+ to raise its record to 31-11. The losses dropped to 29-10.
Wichita's southpaw Donna Campbell pitched both games for the Shockers. In two games, she gave up four hits to Bunge, which led to her eighth strike, a freshman from Hartleville, Oka.
"DONNA'S FROM MY hometown," Bunge said. "I've coached her and hit against her before. That probably made the difference in my hitting today."
