UP AND OVER-Bill Biberstein, Jayhawker 120-yard high hurdler, will give Kansas additional strength when Bill Easton's crew meets Kansas State in a dual meet Saturday. Biberstein, Attica sophomore, won his event in the Kansas Relays. He'll be around two more years.
The Jayhawker thinclads will return to dual meet competition Saturday as they attempt to stretch their dual victory string to 13 straight at the expense of Kansas State in Memorial stadium.
Kansas Seeks 13th Dual Win Against Wildcats Saturday
Kansas defeated the Wildcats 64 1/3 to 39 2/3 when they met indoors earlier this year, and chances are very good that they will repeat outdoors Saturday. The Wildcats haven't defeated Kansas outdoors since 1943
Wes Santee, who surprised everyone with his versatility by spinning a quarter on the winning mile relay team at Drake last week in 47.4, will have two records in his sights Saturday. He holds the dual meet record in the mile at 4:08.3, which he set last year. He is capable of bettering the half-mile record of 1:53.1 set last year by teammate Art Dallzell.
Thane Baker, Kansas State's sprint ace, will have three records within his means. He holds the 100-yard dash record at :99.6, the 220-yard record at :20.8, and may well better the :48.9 record in the quarter. Baker also will anchor his team in the mile relay.
Bill Biberstein, who won the high hurdles at the Texas and Kansas relays, probably will take that event again, with second place support from teammate Adolph Mueller. Mueller will run the low hurdles, but will have some stiff competition
from Kansas State's Corky Taylor.
The Wildcat's versatile grid star, Verliy Switzer, will be shooting for victories in the broad jump and pole vault. He will receive stiff competition, however, from Bob Smith and Norm Steanson.
2 KU Stars Picked In NAB Draft
Dean Kelley and Gil Reich, two members of this year's national runner-up KU basketball team, were drafted by National Basketball association clubs Friday in the annual professional player draft.
Kelley, Jayhawker captain and two-year letterman, was picked by the Fort Wayne Zollers and Reich, a dependable floor leader, was the choice of the Boston Celtics.
Five other area players were included in the selections. Dick Knostman, No. 2 conference scorer from Kansas State, went to Syracuse, and teammates Jack Carby and Bob Rousey also were chosen.

Reich's Brother May Transfer To KU This Fall
A very definite possibility exists that Dick Reich, 19-year-old brother of Kansas' Gil Reich, will resign from West Point and transfer to KU next fall, brother Gil said last night.
"He has talked to me and written me about the move." KU's all-American backfield star said, himself an Army transfer. "I guess he just doesn't like the army life and has decided to get out now while he can."
Gil said he recommended KU to his 6-foot, 200-pound brother when he heard he was considering resigning, but that he had put no pressure on him to switch here. "The whole matter is in his hands," Gil emphasized.
The young Reich, if he comes to Mt. Oread, will carry much athletic experience behind him. In his senior season at Steelton, Pa. High school, he was picked on the Associated Press-Pennsylvania all-star team.
If Dick should come to Kansas, he will have to confine his athletic activities to intramurals next year, to conform with the Big Seven rule that states a varsity player must have one year of residence at the school before being eligible. Dick has two remaining years of eligibility under NCAA standards.
He played one season of football at West Point in 1951, but missed all of last year's games because of a severe shoulder injury. He was a regular on the 1953 basketball squad at West Point and was considered one of its top players.
Brother Gil, recently elected president of Phi Gamma Delta, has run out his eligibility but plans to remain at NU next year to complete work towards an engineering degree.

Players, Fans Go Wild As Yanks Nip Browns
New York—(U,P)—Fists could fly and blood could flow when the Yankees meet the Browns today. $ \textcircled{9} $
And, unless police intervene to curb the fans, somebody could get badly hurt by flying pop or beer bottles.
There was close to a full scale riot at Busch stadium in St. Louis last night when the fans went wild in a 10th inning hullabaloo that delayed play 17 minutes before the Yankees finally won, 7-6.
Umpire John Stevens suffered a shoulder injury, various players were marked with bumps and bruises, and the fans littered the field with bottles and other debris, narrowly missing players with their heaves. The St. Louis park is one of the last in the majors where drinks are dispensed in bottles instead of cardboard containers and the fans made the most of the empty missiles lying around.
Trouble started last night when Gil McDougald, who had doubled in the Yankee 10th, daringly tried for home on a force-out at second. He ran straight up instead of sliding and knocked the ball out of catcher Clint Courtney's hands for the tally. Courtney led off the Brownie 10th with a hit to right field—and slid into second with spikes up, knocking the ball out of Phil Rizzuto's hands. That started the fist-swinging as players from both teams stormed the field and delayed action for 17 minutes.
After a conference at second base, the umpires decided that Courtney was out after all and the Yankee players returned to their positions.
But angry fans chased the outfielders in with a barrage of pop bottles, beer cans and seat cushions.
Allie Reynolds, who did a great job of clutch relief pitching in the ninth when he struck out two Brownies with the bases loaded, was the victor when he set them down after Courtney's hit in the 10th for his third victory.
Mickey Mantle hit another tremendous homer, a 530-foot drive over the left field stands regarded as perhaps the longest ever hit in
st. Louis. It came with two on base.
At Cleveland, the Athletics topped the Indians, 3-2, and ended their five game winning streak as Bobby Shantz pitched an eight-hitter for his second victory and drove in two runs with a pair of singles.
Lefty Mickey McDermott pitched three-hit ball to top the Tigers 2-0 at Detroit as George Kell, an ex-Tiger, scored both Boston runs after hitting a single and double. The White Sox cashed in on wildness by Walt Masterson to score five runs on five hits and a walk in a 5-4 victory over Washington.
In the National League, the Cards snapped the Phils' eight-game winning streak with a 6-5 victory although Harvey Haddix, the winner, had to have help from four relief pitchers. Steve Bilke paced the Cards with a triple and two singles, driving in three runs.
The Dodgers topped the Reds, 5-1. As Preacher Roe pitched eight-hit ball for his first 1953 start, yielding a ninth innings homer to Ted Kluszewski to lose his shutout. Max Surkont of the Braves gave the Giants 11 hits but they were all singles and delivered a two-run double while Jack Dittmer and Del Candrill hit homers in the 4-1 Milwaukee victory at New York. The Cubs topped Pittsburgh, 5-3 as Preston Ward hit a two-run homer and Randy Jackson hit a homer and a run scoring single.
