Baseballers Jolted By I-State Split 3-4,8-5
Kansas baseballers split their weekend two-game series with Iowa State, losing the first one 4 to 3, and then slashing back to blast three Cyclone hurlers for an 8 to 5 victory.
Ron Wiley was touched for his first loss in five starts in the initial game of the series, when a Jayhawker ninth inning rally fell one run short after knocking out three hits for three runs.
Gary Black, the Cyclones' No. 1 hurler, held the Jayhawks scoreless until the last of the ninth inning, and up until the ninth inning rally, the Jayhawkers were able to solve right-hander Black for but two singles.
The victory was Black's first in Big Seven competition.
Wiley, in going the route, struck out three, walked two, and gave up six hits against the five strike-out, five-hit pitching of Black.
In the second game Kansas combined two three-run homers by shortstop Barry Robertson and catcher Barry Donaldson to blast the Cyclones 8 to 5. Relief hurler Gary Fenyit got credit for the victory, his first in the conference this year.
Left-hander Phil Groth was tagged for the loss, although he gave up but four hits in his five innings of pitching. He was relieved in the fifth inning by Gene Lafferty, while catcher Don Bertell pitched the last two innings.
Left-hander Fenity relieved Shirley, who retired from the mound in the fourth inning with a sore arm. Second baseman Don Pfutzenreuter sprained an ankle in the fourth inning, after scoring the Javawkers' fifth run.
Fenity pitched three-hit ball in relief, gave up two walks, and struck out five. The Cyclones scored two runs off Fenity in the top of the ninth, after he had held them scoreless for four innings. Fenity's last win was over Arkansas 11 to 9.
The Jayhawkers play Missouri in their next Big Seven series May 11th and 12th, Friday and Saturday, at Columbia. The Tigers are leading the Big Seven with four victories and one defeat.
The Jayhawkers' split with Iowa State gave KU a league record of two victories and three defeats, for a fourth-place standing in the Big Seven title race.
Landy Vows To Improve
LOS ANGELES—Disappointed John Landy vowed Sunday after his stunning upset by fellow Australian Jim Bailey to better 3:58.7 in Saturday's West Coast Relays at Fresno, Calif.
Bailey has waived the Fresno meet and will instead compete in the Northern Division NCAA meet in Eugene, Ore.
Said Bailey after the race: I knew I could get down close to four minutes, but I was amazed it was that fast."
Asked about his :55.5 final lap, he said,
"Gee, that's hard to believe. In training I had to strain to do 57."

Floerke Given First; Winner Disqualified
Kent Floerke, KU broad jumper, was named the official winner of the Drake Relays broad jump, held at Des Moines last week, by relays director Bob Karnes.
Lewis Watkins of Lincoln University, Jefferson City, Mo., who jumped 24 feet 8 inches, was disqualified for not meeting NCAA residence requirements. Floerke was second with a leap of 24 feet 4 inches.
In its first Relays, in 1923, Kansas dominated the meet, sweeping the 440 and 880-yard relays, finishing second in the mile relay and third in the two-mile baton race.
DUCK!—That's what KU pitcher Ron Wiley appears to be doing in Friday's Iowa State game. Cyclone first baseman Jerry McNertney is pulled off the bag as he stretches for the ball (upper left). He took the throw in time to tag Wiley out.

Washington U. On Probation
SAN FRANCISCO (UP)—Officials at the University of Washington cooperated in furnishing evidence that finally resulted today in a two-year probation by the Pacific Coast Conference and the equivalent of a $53.000 fine against the University.
Commissioner Victor O. Schmidt said he failed to get any cooperation, however, out of the Greater Washington Advertising fund—the so-called "slush fund" that helped pay salaries to athletes at the school.
"The University and I both asked the Greater Washington Advertising fund for a list of the names of athletes they had been giving money," said Schmidt. "But they refused to help us."
As a result the organization, which received about $28,000 last summer to help finance Husky athletes, has been banned from further connection with the school.
Cleveland's Herb Score broke Grover Cleveland Alexander's record for most strikeouts by a freshman pitcher with 245. Alexander's major league record stood for more than 40 years.
I just returned from Melbourne, Australia, with a pouch full of Junior and soiled clothes. And I'm here to tell you that there is no one on either side of the equator who can do the excellent job on my laundry that LAWRENCE LAUNDRY does.
All garments dry cleaned by us are mothproofed without charge
In Alaska I just couldn't find an establishment that could do the quality dry cleaning I demand on my expensive garments. I flipped my flappers and came to Lawrence, Kansas. Now I flap my flippers in joy when LAWRENCE DRY CLEANERS delivers.
