HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday (April 9)
You could achieve security in your career this year. Decide what you want now. Take whatever additional classes you need this summer. June would be excellent for love, but work demands get in the way.
Taurus: Today is a 6
Although you'll still be asked for your good ideas, the focus is shifting. Watch out for a last-ditch effort and advise against it. Your experience will be helpful to the winner of a power play.
Gemini: Todav is an 8
This is not a good time to travel. Traffic may be snarled, so put off your errands until later. It is a good day for you to study, however. If you take time to read the manual, you may be able to solve a problem that's been plaguing you.
Your best time for business is early this morning. Although you're very powerful, you may run into some resistance. You'll be luckiest late tonight, so schedule your plans accordingly.
Cancer: Today is a 7
Don't get in the middle of an argument today if it doesn't really concern you. Let your friends work it out for themselves. Financial constraints could temporarily disrupt your plans for romance.
Leo: Today is a 7
There might be some changes ahead, but if you concentrate on what you do best, you'll slide right into a new system without a problem.
Virao: Today is an 8
This would be a good time to build an alliance between factions that were previously at war. If you sign the papers today, the union should be strong, if somewhat controversial.
Libra: Todav is a 7
Look at not only what you want for yourself, but the way you would like to see the whole world turn out. You might be able to solve a problem while you make a profit.
Scorpio: Today is a 6
Sagittarius: Today is a 7
You may have to choose between an excursion with a friend or doing a job you hate. Simple? Not really, if you need that paycheck. Take comfort knowing that this weekend will be perfect for a party.
Capricorn: Today is a 7
You might not get a lot of different things done today If you can make one big decision and act on it, consider that enough. You don't have to do it alone, either. Get together with a person who can help you.
Aquarius: Today is a 7
If you can't get away today, at least contact an associate. You may be able to work out a deal that benefits everybody. That's even more important if you have a big debt coming due.
Pisces: Today is an 8
You have convinced everybody. You'll have to be strong in your beliefs to make that happen. It would also help if you're right, so check your fingers carefully.
Men's golf rebounds for 10th-place finish
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
The Kansas men's golf team improved from a last place start by finishing 10th out of 20 teams Tuesday in the Western Intercollegiate
Tournament in Santa Cruz, Calif.
After a round-one score of 301 left them sitting in last place Monday morning, the Jawhawks put together a high-quality second-round score of 283 that afternoon, tying their second-best effort of the season. The score was also the second-best team score of the tournament.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Coach Ross Randall said many factors, including rainy weather and poor putting, contributed to the Jayhawks' high first-round score.
Kansas shot a final-round score of 297, leaving them in the middle of the 20-field back.
Junior Chris Thompson took second place in the tournament with the help of his second-round, three-under-par 68. Thompson, who posted a combined score of 212, was just one stroke behind tournament champion Naoya Takamoto of the University of California at Santa Barbara.
"We played pretty well in the last round, but we missed a few putts here and there." Randall said.
Thompson's finish was the seventh time in 10 tournaments that he has placed in the top five.
"I didn't get to play with (Takamoto), so I didn't know what it would take to win," Thompson said. "You just have to shoot your number and see what happens."
Randall said, "I was pleased with the effort from Thompson, but I wish he would have won."
Sophomore Ryan Vermeer had scores of 79-66-76 for a total of 221.
The second-round 66 was the best score of the season by any Jayhawk.
Vermeer finished tied for 29th.
Junior Ryan Zug tug for 79th with his score of 230. Senior Brad Barnett finished with a score of 231.
"We have also seen bad weather at most of our tournaments this year," Randall said. "But we are close to doing well, it is just a matter of getting quality practice time with good weather so we can prepare."
Sophomore Brad Davis shot rounds of 77-72-75, totaling 224 to finish in a tie for 43rd.
— Jason Pearce
The Jayhawks will compete next in the Franklin Quest Cougar Classic, April 21-22, in Provo, Utah. This is the last tournament before the Big 12 Championship held April 27-28 in Hutchinson at the Prairie Dunes Country Club.
Randall said the team should do well against the Big 1,2 teams but said recent bad weather had contributed to a lack of practice time.
Royals make trades to improve outfield
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Catcher Mike Macfarlane cleaned out his hocker following Kansas City's home opener
with Baltimore to find out he had been traded to Oakland for outfielder Shane Mack and a player to be named, Royals general manager Herk Robinson said yesterday.
Royala
"Both have accepted it," Robinson said.
that we made it, " Robinson said.
"Jeff Conline is going to be out for a longer period than we first thought," Robinson said. "We obviously need another outfielder."
It is unknown when Conine will return, although he would be eligible to come off the disabled list Wednesday.
For this, the Royal Focus in the outfield became acute when Jeff Conine went on the disabled list with a strained abdominal muscle.
Macfarlane's agent, Jeff Moorad, initially told the Royals that the catcher, one of the longest-tenured Royals players, would not accept the trade.
Macfarlane had been the backup to Mike Sweeney. He had one hit in 11 at-bats in three games this season. The Royals likely will call up catcher Sal Fasano from Triple-A Omaha to become Sweeney's backup.
Regarding Mcfarlane's trade, "We had talked about it for some time, and there are a number of reasons
Once the trade is finalized and if both Mack and Fasano join the major league club, the Royals will have to drop one player.
But MacFarlane told The Kansas City Star: "Why stay with a team that doesn't want you? I'm going to go."
Macfarlane has spent his major league career with Kansas City except for 1995, when he was with Boston. He came into the season with a career average of .253 with 118 home runs and 449 RBIs.
Mactarlafron said he had known the Royals were thinking about trading him throughout spring training.
Asbury's hopes high for two new recruits
at Junction City after moving to Kansas from Palatka, Fla. Asbury said Reynolds would have a chance to
MANHATTAN — Junction City high school star Travis Reynolds and junior college player Cortez Groves have signed letters of intent to attend Kansas State University, coach Tom
Asbury announced yesterday.
Reynolds, a 6-foot-7 forward, led the I-70 League in scoring and rebounding this season, averaging 19.7 points and 9.7 rebounds. He played two years at Junction City after
Groves, a 6-foot-5 guard from Raytown, Mo.. was slowed by ankle and groin injuries this season, during which he averaged 11.7 points for Missouri's Moberly Community College.
"He may not have had the type of year that he or we anticipated, but he is a good defender and the type of player we expect to step in and help us," Asbury said.
compete for playing time at small no ward as a freshman. Asbury said he would look to Groves to provide immediate help at the off-guard position.
Felix Grimmett, Reynolds' coach at Junction City, called him the best player in Kansas in terms of his size.
"He has hit games where he really gets on a roll offensively," Seifert said. "He is a rhythm player. If he gets in a good rhythm, he is going to do well."
His coach at Mobberly, Kenny Seifert, called Groves a solid player who could be explosive at times, with a 30-point game as a freshman.
"He runs the floor and block shots," Grimmett said. "He has the whole package. For us he had to play inside but at K-State he will have no problem stepping out on the wing."
This season, he had 36 points in one game and 18 rebounds in another.
