Track Team Tries to Run String to 19
By Russ Corbitt Assistant Sports Editor
Fresh from an impressive 15-49 victory over Southern Illinois here last weekend, the KU cross country team will be trying for its 19th consecutive dual meet victory at Chicago Saturday morning.
The KU team will meet Chicago Track club in a three-mile meet.
LAST WEEK'S meet was the season opener for KU, and indicated that Coach Bill Easton's squad is destined for another profitable year.
Adding to the importance of the meet is the fact that the Chicago team was the last to defeat KU in dual competition.
Jayhawks captured the first five places in the meet, with veteran Paul Acevedo pacing the field with a time of 14:55.6.
Acevedo was followed by Chick Fero, George Cabrera, Herald Hadley, Ken Holm and John Donner before the first Southern Illinois runner crossed the finish line.
KUS JOHN LAWSON finished third behind Acevedo and Fero, but was not one of the seven runners who composed the KU team Saturday. Easton had not named Lawson to the team because of a knee injury which had been bothering the sophomore runner.
Lawson and veteran Tonnie Coane will replace Paul Donner and Lowell Paul on the KU seven-man team at the Chicago meet. Easton made the promotions on the basis of last week's finishes.
KU will have dual meets with Drake and Oklahoma before the State Federation meet and the Big Eight meet, both of which will be held in Lawrence on the first two Saturdays in November.
RAY SCHALK OF THE CHICAGO White Sox led American League catchers in fielding eight different seasons.
Wanted: 20 Soccer Players
Things are looking up for KU's soccer team—except for one minor deficiency, that is.
the team has a good schedule (eight matches, including a homecoming affair with St. Benedict's College) and an enthusiastic coach (Tom Hedrick, director of the KU Sports Network).
The only thing lacking is manpower. There are supposed to be 11 players on a soccer team. At the moment, KU's participants total two persons.
Hedrick, who had to ask someone else how many players there are on a soccer team,says he wants enough players for two teams. He said KU will not have a soccer team unless his forces increase this week.
"If storming up and down the sideline making a lot of noise is the indication of a good coach, I should be great," the vocal Hedrick said. "However, with my limited one-year experience playing soccer in high school and with only two players on the horizon, it could be a long season."
Hedrick suggests prospective soccer players should contact him or Henry Shenk, chairman of the physical education department.
THERE ARE SEVEN CUPIT brothers in all and five of them are golf professionals. Buster is the oldest and is responsible for getting his four "kid brother" interested in the game.
DON CHERRY IS KNOWN TO millions of record fans as a fine popular song writer, but along the professional golf circuit he is regarded as a solid player who gets better all the time.
