KU gunners shot down Baron not surprised at UK rating
Murray State of Kentucky captured the college, ROTC and women's division championships in the 11th Annual Kansas State University Turkey Shoot December 5-7. Results were announced Thursday.
KU's teams placed 17th in the college division and placed fifth in the women's division with scores of 2,057 and 1,838 points.
Individual scoring for the women's team was Mary Arnold, Holton junior, 487; Carol Waltz, Orange, Tex., junior, 485; Tana Monroe, Columbia, Mo., junior, 442; and Barbara Westervelt, Parsons junior, 424.
KU's men's team scores were Rick Daly, St. Louis senior, 537; Mike Jenkins, Salina sophomore, 510; Ben Zavala, Lawrence junior, 510; and Linn Covey, Ft. Leavenworth freshman, 500.
The K-State match continually draws some of the finest college teams in the country. Winners of this meet have gone on to the Olympics and other world championship matches. This year's match drew 58 teams, the most for any indoor match in the nation.
The course fired was a half-international which consists of two targets each of prone, kneeling and standing with a time limit of 100 minutes. The total points possible for individuals is 600 and 2,400 for teams.

The riflemen have several road matches scheduled for next semester and will host the Big Eight match in April.

Before the season Rupp expressed concern that his club might be in trouble after All-Southeastern Conference guard Mike Casey was lost for the season with a broken leg sustained in an auto accident.

TWA put a price on your head that even your parents might agree to pay.
We're out to get you home for the Holidays. Fast.
Which is something that your parents will probably enjoy too.
Something else theyll enjoy is our fares for students. (Students, that is, who are between the ages of 12 and 21 and who have TWA's Youth Card.) On a standby basis you'll get 40% off regular coach fares.
Which doesn't mean you'll be flying second class or anything like that.
You still get all the great food and TWA features like movies and stereo music* But it won't cost you like it does everyone else.
And TWA flies to nearly all the major cities in the U.S., plus we have a special youth fare to Hawaii.
With all that going for you, there's only one excuse for not going home for the holidays.
Getting your hair cut.
