Right Field Only Baseball Position Secure For 1952
Right field is the only position on the 1952 Jayhawker baseball team where a player is reasonably sure of his job.
Slamming Walt Hicks, who hit six home runs and batted a neat 377 last year for Coach Hub Ulrich's crew, seems pretty well set in his old right field position.
But for four other regulars, it looks like a fight right down to the opening game with Wichita, April 5.
Curtis Harris, last year's first string third baseman, has shifted into the battle for the second base slot. The other three regulars are George Voss, first baseman, and outfielders Frank Mischlich and Charles Bether.
At the end of basketball season,
Dean Smith will change to his
catcher's outfit—a uniform he wore
as a regular on the 1951 Jayhawk
baseball club. But he'll be nearly a month behind Bud Jones and Don Anderson in practice.
Galen Fiss, who doubles in football and is a second letterman in the catching spot, is being tried in the outfield.
John Perry, and Bill Pulliam are in the race with Harris for the second base position. Bether is being pressed by Bud Laughlin for the centerfield job. Along with Fiss, Bob Toalson is battling Mischlich in left field.
Individual duals also are in progress at shortstop, left vacant by the departed Frank Koenig, and at third base, vacated by Harris in an effort to compensate the loss of John McConnell, another 1951 regular.
Frank Wolf and Phil Owen are battling at short. Charles Appling and Ben Croyle are in the race for third base position.

Diesels Win AAU Crown
Denver — (U,P) — The newly crowned national AAU. basketball champion Caterpillar Diesels of Peoria, Ill., had their eyes on a new crown today—the Olympic title.
The Diesels and three other AAU teams meet in Olympic playoffs Saturday, with each team aiming for the chance to carry the U. S. banner in this summer's competition at Helsinki.
The Deisels, who ran fourth in the National Industrial Basketball league race, won the AAU title by upsetting favored Phillips Oilers of Bartlesville, Okla., 66-53, last Saturday.
The Olympic playoffs get underway this Saturday in Kansas City, Mo., and New York. The champion Diesels play third place Air Force All Stars of Tinker Field, Oklah., in New York, while runnerup Phillips takes on fourth place Fibber McGee and Molly of Hollywood in Kansas City.

Clyde To Play In Shrine Tilt
Clyde Lovellette, Kansas' All-American center, will play on the West team in the East-West game in Kansas City April 12 and Ken Loeffler, coach of the LaSalle basketball team which won top honors in the National Invitation tournament expressed a desire to have Lovellette play anywhere but against him.
Wednesday, March 26, 1952
Coach Loeffler is pulling for "anybody but Kansas" to win the current NCAA competition. His La-Salle Explorers are qualified for Olympic trial play scheduled for this weekend in New York as a result of their NIT victory. He explains his reasoning with "I don't see how Clyde Lovellette can be stopped."
He watched Clyde score 44 points at Kansas City last weekend as Kansas won from St. Louis to qualify for the semi-final and final playoffs in Seattle. LaSalle will play the loser of the KU-ST. John's game in Madison Square garden Saturday.
Besides Clyde, officials of the sponsoring Shrine Temple announced Tuesday they had received acceptances from Jerry Romney, Brigham Young; John Dilling, Holy Cross, and Jim Julian, Southwest Missouri College at Springfield.

Among those sent invitations were Ray Evans, All-American halfback in 1947; Dona Bambrough, now assistant KU coach and All-Big Seven guard in 1946 and 1947; Otto Schnellbacher, great end in 1946 and '47, playing professionally with the New York Giants; Johnny Amberg, co-captain in 1950 and big man for the Giants last fall, and Mick McCormack, All-Big Seven tackle in 1950 who played with the New York

Coach Sikes had some good words termed the workout, "a real fine offensive and defensive scrimmage." Sikes was especially happy with "the boys' spirit." He said that though the team was full of experienced players, "the boys are playing their football for 'keeps' and they continue to work hard and show improvement."
Early practice, yesterday, was invoted to fundamental drills with linemen and backs working in separate groups.
