Hitting, Pitching Please Temple
Coach Temple said in an interview Monday, "We're getting good hitting and pitching, but we are not facing the competition that we'll meet against teams like Missouri and Oklahoma when the conference schedule starts next week.
Coach Floyd Temple is still un-certain about the baseball team, even with a winning streak of six games, as many as the team won during the entire season last year.
Asked about the competition in the Big Seven, he said, "There is no way to rate it because we haven't met any mutual teams. We should win our share from everybody, though." he added.
"We are not over optimistic though, and we'll play each game as we come to it." he said.
"Shirley's one-hitter against Wichita showed up well, because he had no ill effects with his arm after the game. If he does as well against the Big Seven teams, we will be more than satisfied."
In the pitching department, Coach Temple was particularly pleased with the steady improvement of Bob Shirley, Grantville junior, who has been plagued with a sore arm.
A three over par 75 by Jim Davies on the windswept Lawrence Country Club course Monday qualified him for the No. 3 position for the Kansas-Kansas State golf meet at Manhattan Wednesday.
5 KU Golfers To Manhattan
Coach Temple has named Fuzzy Martin as the tentative starter for the Rockhurst game Friday.
Bill Sayler and Tom Phoenix
coded 79's to tie for the No. 4 po-
mon while the other contender,
Larry Gutsch, fired an 83.
A highlight in the qualification round came when Phoenix sank an approach shot from behind the sixth green to give him an eagle three on the par five hole.
Normally the tie would have been played off, but coach Mike Chalfant had arranged to take five players to Kansas State for the match.
The four lowest scorers at Manhattan will represent the Kansas golf team this weekend when it takes on Oklahoma and Oklahoma A&M at Norman and Stillwater.
