KU vollevball coach resigns
Bob Lockwood has resigned from his position as KU volleyball coach to become a fulltime physical education and recreation instructor, it was announced yesterday.
Lockwood, who also taught along with his coaching duties, said last night that he thought his decision would be the "best thing for everybody concerned."
"I think volleyball demands and needs a fulltime coach," Lockwood said, "and the same thing goes for physical education. At home, I don't. I'm not prepared to give up education."
Lockwood had a 115-151-4 record in his seven seasons as volleyball coach. He has been teaching at KU since 1964 and has coached wrestling, gymnastics and tennis.
"It's been 21 years of great experiences," he said. "There have been hundreds of great athletes that have come through."
KU moves back up to top ten
NEW YORK — After two second-half comebacks last week, No. 1 ST. John's held its solid lead in the latest balloting by the UPI Board of Coaches.

Jury chosen for Moses trial
LOS ANGELES — A jury was selected yesterday in the sex solicitation trial of Olympic hero Edwin Moses, who confidential police documents reportedly say approached an undercover policewoman with an offer of $100 for sex.
The track star and his wife, Myrella, sat through the daylong selection process, which ended with the impaneling of a jury to determine whether closing statements were scheduled for today.
When Municipal Court Judge David Horowitz asked each prospective juror to raise his or her hand if they had heard of the Moses case, nearly every hand went down. When Horowitz asked jurors were asked if they had made up their minds about Moses' guilt or innocence.
Moses, 29, of Laguna Hills, Calif., was arrested last month in a Hollywood vice sweep after he allegedly solicited the undercover policewoman posing as a lawyer to commit fraud by carrying a maximum sentence of six months in the county jail and a $1,000 fine.

KU bound for Hawaii for fall football game
By SUE KONNIK
Sports Writer
The KU football squad will spend Labor Day weekend in Hawaii, Lonny Rose, assistant athletic director, said yesterday.
The Jayhawks will face the University of Hawaii on Saturday, Aug. 31, in Honolulu at Aloha Stadium as part of the team's pre-conference schedule.
Head coach Mike Gottfried said last night that playing in Hawaii was something his team had always wanted to do.
"Hawaii is a good football team," Gottfried said. "They were 7-4 last year and just missed playing in the Aloha Bowl.
"We really wanted to play that 12th game." Kansas was scheduled to play 11 games in the fall, but college football teams in the continental United States can play an extra game each season if that game is in Alaska or Hawaii.
Rose said Hawaii petitioned the National Collegiate Athletic Association for the right to play an extra game. Last month at the NCAA convention, the members passed legislation to permit the Rainbow Warriors to schedule a 12th football game.
In December 1986 the KU basketball team will play in the Rainbow Classic in Hawaii, and Rose said this might have led to the Labor Day football matchup.
"I have a relationship with the University of Hawaii, and my experience in negotiating the basketball contract helped us get this game," Rose said.
Financial arrangements are still pending.
Rose said the game might be broadcast in London, but that the time difference would be a problem.
"I'm still working with the budget and checking travel arrangements," Rose said. "We hope to arrange it so as many fans as possible can travel at a costual cost."
The contest is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
Saturday. The time difference would mean
Kansas would see the game at 12:30 a.m.
Sunday because Hawaii is four time zones
away and does not observe daylight savings
time.
Rose said the team will probably leave Aug. 28 and return Sept. 1.

Branstrom, Hazim and Alabama's Tim McCants all cleared the bar at seven feet and missed on three attempts at 7/24. Branstrom was declared the winner on fewer misses at lower heights, while McCants finished second and Hazim third.
THOSE PERFORMANCES CAME on a day that saw the KU men set 16 season-best marks in finishing second to Alabama in the team scoring. Kansas finished with 54 points to Alabama's 56. Wichita State finished third with 51.

"Things are finally starting to come together," he said. "It was really depressing earlier. This is a real good stepping stone for me."
For KU high jumpers Craig Branstrom and Sharriff Hazim, clearing the seven-foot barrier in Saturday's Kansas Triangular track meet was long overdue.
"I was almost getting depressed," Branstrom said. "I think it was way past overdue."
Hazim agreed
The KU women won their quadrangular meet Saturday, finishing with 44 points.
Hazim has been faced this season with the same problem he has faced since coming to the

Alabama and Wichita State tied for second with 44, while Missouri finished with 22.
"It was frustrating, sitting on the sidelines of a game and not seeing it," it feels real good just to be stuck again.
Coach Bob Timmons said, "They both did a very good job. It was just a very good meet."
"I HAVEN'T JUMPED anything that high in so long."
Fred Lewis won the triple jump with a lead of 50-6¼, John Creighton won the 300-yard dash in 31.16 seconds and Scott Huffman won the pole vault at 16.6.
Women's coach Carla Coffey said her team had its best performance of the season.
"I'm excited," she said. "Everything's in place for us as team. We're right on schedule."
Kim Jones won the long jump with a leap of 19-71%. Angie Helmer won the 600-yard run in 1 minute, 26 seconds and Kelly Wood won the 1000-yard run in 2:36.15.

KU's tennis teams survived a tough weekend on the road and came home undefeated, much to the surprise of head coach Scott Perelman.

Perelman said Sunday that he didn't have any complaints about the weekend.
LATER THAT NIGHT, KU defeated Memphis State and had to play two more matches.

"I was thankful that we got home in one piece," Perelman said.
The Jayhawks won both matches and head-
The only two losses for KU came in the singles division against Murray State. All nine doubles matches were won by the Jayhawks.
"IT'S CRUCIAL to be a really good doubles team." Pereelman said. "Everybody did what you hoped they would do. All of those matches could have been 5-4."

The women's team got off on the right foot in the region by defeating Wichita State 6-3.
Playing No. 1 doubles were Barbara Inman and Christine Parr. They lost to Sandy Sandler and Jill Brendel 7-5 and 6-4. Sadier and Brendel played in the NCAA tournament last season and Perealman said a KU win would not be good for Barbara Inman and Parr for this year's tournament.

Boyle saves win again; KU meets MU tonight
By MIKE BRENNAN Sports Writer
Being in pressure situations hasn't bothered Tad Becter yet this season, and it didn't take much longer.
Boyle, the captain of the KU team, hit four free throws in the closing seconds to help clinch the Jayhawk's 75-17 victory over the third-ranked Tigers. It was the third time this season Boyle has made the big play late in a game.
"I had confidence that I would make them," Boyle said. "I tried to teach them soft and they bounced in. If you make them, you are her hero. If you miss them, you are the goat."
HEAD COACH LARRY Brown said, "I am thankful for Tad, and I think this means so much to him with the way his career has been. They did exactly what they had to do, put somebody at the line. And fortunately, we made our free throws."
In Lincoln, Nebraska cut the KU lead to 81-78 with 1:36 left in the game. Boyle was fouled nine seconds later, and he hit two free throws. Kansas won 91-80.
Boyle said that each time he was in a pressure situation, it not easier.
"As the season progresses the games get a bit and closer, and you have to be able to win the game."
Earlier this year, KU led Missouri 69-68 with 11 seconds left in the game. As the Tigers brought the ball up the floor, Bouse pass, and the Jayhawks went on pw t9.08.70

Missouri has turned things around without changing its starting line-up.

Women defeat Nebraska in 'best meet of the year'
Gary Kemp, Kansas head swim coach, said last month that it would be hard for Nebraska to take the Big Eight women's swimming title away from Kansas. The KK women's team backed up that achievement by winning over Nebraska in a dual meet in Lycoming.
"This was our best meet of the year." Kempf said the women had overcome some of the problems that had been troubling them this year.
"It was nice," said Kempf, "especially since they were ranked 12th in the nation and we were 15th.
"We've been inconsistent this season and still won." Kemp said "Saturday we made it to the finals."
Marcee Herrell led the Jayhawks with individual wins in three events. Herrell won the 1000-yard freestyle, the 300-yard jump and the 200-yard individual medley.

Head coach Marian Washington and junior center Vickie Adkins have fond memories of games against Colorado.
The first time Kansas faced Colorado on Jan. 26. Washington picked up her 200th victory in a 66-55 Jayhawk win in Boulder.
Saturday night Adkins scored her 1,000th career point as KU romped over Colorado
The win was the fifth consecutive victory for KU. The Jayhawks are now 6-2 in the conference, one game behind league-leading Oklahoma. Colorado fell to 2-6.
Adkins, 12 points shy of the 1,000 points going into the game, said that passing the mark Saturday wasn't that important.
"Last year at this time, we were losing,
this year we're winning." Adkins said.
"The team's not going away."
KUH HAD LITTLE trouble staying on top of Colorado after a slow start. But Adkins was having troubles of her own. A tough Colorado
defense held her to only three points in the first half.
"Vickie had a tough time getting the ball to the first half," Washington said, "but she is an exceptional player without the ball and the other players are beginning to realize it."
"Coach called a time-out and said get the ball to Vickie and they did and I got it in," Adkfins said.
Adkins finally got back on track, but nearly too late. Her 1,000th point came with just 3:50 left in the game.
Washington said, "I just wanted the team to be aware of her last shot. Vickie earned it."
Before the game, Washington was worried about Colorado's defense.
"Myers is an exceptional shooter and has done very well all season," Washington said.
"COLORADO CAME OFF of a one-point win over Iowa State," she said. "They were really pumped up but we did a good job of countering that intensity."
KU countered with accurate shooting from the outside. Mary Myers, senior guard, led the team.
"Colorado was packing the defense in tonight and we needed an outside shot. Myers was there."
Washington said she thought her team could reach its expectations.
Adkins agreed with her coach.
*IF WE COME out hard on defense, I think we're going to win games because good teams win.
Adkins now has 1,063 career points after her 15-point 10-rebound show and has scored in "double-figures in 24 consecutive games. She is second in the Big Eight in scoring with a 20.6 average and leads the conference in field goal percentage.
Washington was presented a plaque for her 60 career victories during halftime of the men's soccer game.
Kansas will travel to Missouri on Wednesday day.
