Jayhawks Fall To 'Cat Tennis Comeback 3-4
The KU tennis team lost its fourth match of the season Monday when upstate rival Kansas State rallied from a 2-1 deficit to pick up the two remaining singles matches and a doubles match to win 4 to 3, at the Stadium courts.
The three previous Jayhawker losses this spring came at the hands of Washburn (2), and Missouri (1).
The match was the first of the season between KU and K-State, and it was the final match of major competition for KU before the Big Seven tournament, to be held at Manhattan Saturday.
Sunday's match with Kansas City University has been cancelled, and no definite date has been set for a tentative match this week with Baker University.
The match started out on even terms, with KU's Gene Kane defeating Keith Andler and John Dean of K-State beating Del Hadley. Big Seven singles titlist Bob Riley then gave KU its 2-1 edge by easily beating the Wildcats' No. 1 man, Bob Hansen 6-2, 6-0.
Dick Circle of the Wildcats then retaliated by beating out KU's No. 2 player, Dave Kane, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 in the most tension-packed match of the day.
Buddy Burke then fell to Don Wainscott in the No. 5 match to put the Wildcats ahead in matches 3-2. K-State then proceeded to sew up the victory by winning the No. I doubles, as Circle and Dean beat Hadley and Dave Kane 7-5, 6-3.
At the same time, Riley and Gene were handling the No. 2 doubles with comparative ease 6-3, 6-3, but it was of little consolation.
Early this spring the Wildcats were generally thought to be of second-division caliber, but they asserted their true potential on May 12 when they defeated Washburn of Topeka 5-2, after losing the first two singles matches.
Kansas State very likely will be conceded a good chance of taking either first or second in the Big Seven tourney, to which it is host.

No. 2—Dick Circle (KS) defeated
Dave Kane 3-6, 6-3, 6-2

Sooners Slug MU Grab 1st In Big 7
COLUMBIA, Mo. (UP)—Oklahoma held the top spot in the Big Seven baseball standings today with a 4-1 record after whipping Missouri 13-6 yesterday. The teams meet again today.
The Sooners blasted out eight runs in the first inning, highlighted by first baseman Bob Burr's three-run home. The splurge was aided by three Tiger errors.
Joe Mobra, starting pitcher for the Sooners, was a big help to his own cause with a homer with none on base in the third inning.
A two-run rally by Missouri in the eighth routed Mobra, but right-hander Eddie Fisher took over and held the Tigers scoreless the rest of the way.
Six Missouri hurlers were hammered for 12 hits. It left Missouri with a 6-2 mark in the league.
Recognized as a consistent hitter, Harvey Kuenn of the Detroit Tigers rarely strikes out. Pitchers got him 27 times last year and in 1954.

Sox Owner Wants Night Ban
BOSTON—Boston Red Sox owner Tom Yawkey said Monday that he would propose a ban on night games in the month of April at the next meeting of major league club owners. "It's bad enough playing in the daytime in April, let alone playing in the evening," Yawkey said.

MIAMI (UF))—Mile-master John Landy thinks that after the Olympic Games at Melbourne, Australia next December, he may quit running altogether.
together. Landy said that even though the mile has been his specialty race in which he has broken the magic four-minute barrier six times, he does not intend to run that distance again.
Mile-MasterLandy May Quit Running
There is no mile competition in the Olympic Games, he pointed out. Thus there is no incentive for him to continue competing at that distance. Instead, when he finishes a 10-day vacation here with his uncle, George Landy, at nearby Delray Beach, he will concentrate on training for the 1,500 meter race at the standard Olympic distance.
The 1,500 meter race, he said would require different timing and training.
NEW YORK (UP)—Two veteran pitchers, Jim Konstanty and Frank Smith, were recipients of baseball's saddest news today while a third one, Billy Lloe, calmly accepted the "news" he had expected for a week—informing him Brooklyn had sold him to Baltimore.
3 Veteran Pitchers Get Axe As Major Leagues Start Cut
Konstenty, 39-year-old right-handed reliever, was given his unconditional release by the Yankees, who got down to the 25-player limit by placing shortstop Billy Hunter on the disabled list.
The 28-year-old Smith was optioned to Nashville of the Southern Association by Cincinnati along with catch Matt Batts.
And the sore-armed 28-year-old Loes was waived out of the National League and sold to the Orioles.
Dodgers officials, who originally denied the transaction would take
place, revealed no figures but it was known they received $30,000 from the Orioles. Besides the cash, Baltimore will send the Dodgers two minor league players at a later date.
league. Loes posted a 10-4 record last year despite developing a shoulder soreness and "tendonitis", in mid-season. Konstanty set an all-time major league record in pitching the Philies to a pennant in 1950 when he appeared in 74 games. He was sold to the Yankees in 1954.
to the Yankees in 1950.
Smith broke into the majors with Cincinnati in 1950 and starred in relief roles until he developed arm trouble in 1954. Traced to the Cardinals, he was reacquired on waivers by the RedLedges last month but saw little action. Batts has been in the majors since 1947, having played with the Red Sox, Browns, Tigers and White Sox in addition to Cincinnati.
