THE TWO-WAY STRETCH—Missouri shortstop Todd Sickel is safe at first as KU firstbaseman Brock Snyder leaves the base to stop a wide throw. Snyder was seeing his first action of the year, as regular Bill Heitholt went to the mound yesterday to try and bolster Coach Floyd Temple's sagging pitching staff.
Missouri Tops KU 11-2; Second Game Today
By JOHN McMILLION
Kansas Assistant Sports Editor
Two members of Kansas' three-man pitching staff came up with ailing arms yesterday and Coach Floyd Temple was forced to draft first baseman Bill Heitholt for mound duty in a game which the University of Missouri won 11 to 2 yesterday on the KU field.
Heitholt pitched creditable ball, considering he is a first sacker by trade, and managed to last the entire game, something which hasn't happened too often this year for KU pitchers. The lanky righthander gave up 12 hits, walked seven, and snuck out two, and but for a fluke hit in the seventh inning, when the Tigers got five runs, would have had a fairly tight ball game.
The two clubs meet again today at 3 p.m. when Wayne Tiemeier, who has a record of four wins against five losses meets Missouri fast-baller Norm Stewart. Stewart has a season's mark of two wins and two losses.
Both Ben Dalton and Gary Fenity came up with ailing arms in yesterday's game so Temple started Heitholt on the mound in a desperation effort to give Temeier an extra day's rest. Heitholt got by the first inning all right then gave up one run in the second when second baseman Buddy Cox got a double, Jerry Schoonmaker walked, and George Gleason singled to score Cox
In the third inning the Tigers added three more scores when Heitholt gave up singles to Todd Sickel, Bob Musgrave, Emil Kammer, and Gleason and a walk to Cox. Gleason and Cox were troublesome all afternoon getting five hits between them. Gleason got three singles and Cox got a double and a triple.
rietholt again got the side out in the sixth, striking out his first man on the game, and then in the seventh Missouri pushed across five runs on a wierd play.
Bob Musgrave walked to open the inning, followed by Kammer who also walked. Cox got on base on a fielder's choice on an attempted sacrifice and the Jayhawkers tried
Kansas finally solved the offerings of starting pitcher Gene Gastineau in the third when the Jayhawkers got their only two runs of the game. Don Dixon led off the inning with a walk, Don Steinmeyer singled, Forrest Hoglund popped up to the catcher, Bob Conn flied out to left, and then Gary Padgett hit a double to left field to score Dixon and Steinmeyer.
Heitholt got the Tigers out 1-2-3 in the fourth and then gave up another run in the fifth when he hit Kammer, who scored on Gleason's triple. Padgett saved Heitholt from more troubles in the inning when he jumped high to spear Jack Davis' line drive and double Schoonmaker of second. Schoonmaker had walked and stolen second. Davis had come into the game to relieve Gastineau.
the play at third and didn't make it. Schoonmaker popped up to Hoglund and then Gleason stepped up to the plate.
On a high inside ball Gleason turned away from the plate and the ball hit his bat, rebounding into short right field through a hole between second and first. Gleason reached first on the play and Musgrave and Kammer scored.
Gleason was erased on a fielder's choice, third to second, on which Davis reached first. Herb Morgan and Sickel then hit a single and a double successively to score Cox, Davis, and Morgan.
The Tigers added their final run in the ninth on a single by Davis, an error by Fenity, who had come in at first base in replacement of Brock Snyder, and a sacrifice fly by Sickel.
Kansas got nine hits off Gastineau and Davis but could never get more than one an inning after the third. Davis received credit for *the win as Gastineau pitched only four innings. The Jayhawkers had only two extra-base hits, doubles by Hoglund and Padgett.
An estimated 220,000 seats were sold yesterday when tickets for the 1956 Olympic games went on sale in various Australian cities.

Behind the 11-strikeout performance of Bob Mallory, AO shaded Theta Chi in eight innings. The winners scored the game's only tally when Al Gulledge doubled home Jim Trombold. Ben Croyle didn't give ATO a hit until the seventh inning, Mallory scattered six hits, Lloyd Mayer and Harry Gray getting two each for the losers.
TKE converted one hit, five walks, and two errors into nine runs in the third inning against Phi Gam to win an odd contest. The winners were outhit 14 to 6, but managed to take advantage of Dick Rumsey's wildness, and some Phi Gam fielding lapses. Wally Strauch and Walt Beck collected three hits apiece for the losers.
With Bob Anderson holding Sigma Nu to four hits, Phi Psi took an easy win. The losers scored first, getting two runs in the initial inning on two hits and a pair of walks. Phi Psi tied it in the second with a pair of tallies, then took the lead in the third with three more runs. They added three more scores in the fourth, and closed
Collecting 11 runs in the first three innings, Beta Staved off a Delta Chi rally in the late innings to win. Catcher Ed Wilson paced Beta at the plate with a home run and a triple, which accounted for six runs.
