Netmen Suffer Rough Road Trip; Win One, Lose Four Team Matches
The Jayhawker tennis team suffered rough treatment in a 10-day road trip which extended through the Easter vacation. The charges of coach Gordon Sabine dropped team contests to Oklahoma, Southern Methodist, Missouri, and Washington University of St. Louis.
Kansas swept its matches with Arkansas, handing the Razorbacks a 9 to 0 setback. The Jayhawkers, net champions of the Big Six last year, were marked men through which took full advantage of their familiar home courts and the psychology of being underdogs.
Point Difference In Match
Against Oklahoma and Washington the Kansans lost out by 3 to 4 scores. The difference of a point in one game of either series would have meant the match.
Southern Methodist and Missouri won by 5 to 2 margins. The matches in Dallas were played in 85 degree weather. The Kansas racket man suffered a let-down from the Oklahoma battle of the day before and failed to play up to their usual game in the heat.
In Columbia, the Tiger net men were red-hot in capturing four of five singles matches and one doubles contest. Rip Manning, the number one court artist for Missouri, trimmed Dick Richards, the talented Jayhawk first man, 6-3, 6-0. Richards-Shoof Win
Richards-Shoaf Win
At times, Kansas displayed a high quality of tennis. Against Missouri Richards and Roy Shoaf teamed up as the number one doubles combination to win their match, 6-2, 6-4
Erwin Busiek won his Oklahoma opponent by means of an 8-6 third set in which he made seven placements in the last two games.
Coach Sabine reported that his team met a variety of playing conditions. The Kansas netters played on wood at Oklahoma, clay at Southern Methodist, cement at Arkansas, wood and asphalt at Washington, and wood again at Missouri.
Nebraska Here Friday
All matches were non-conference.
The Jayhawkers will have another crack at Oklahoma here on May 10,
Missouri here on May 16, and Washington here April 17.
Nebraska Herd Friday
The first home tennis match is scheduled with Nebraska here Friday. Five singles and two doubles matches will be played on the four Kansas concrete courts beginning at 2:30 p.m. This will be a non conference meet.
Between the Nebraska contest and the visit by Washington university, the team will go to Topeka to play Washburn Saturday.
Coach Sabine took six men with him on the trip south and east. They were: Dick Richards, Roy Shoaf, Bob Barnes, Frank Gage, Sam Mazon, and Erwin Busiek.
He reported that five places are still wide open on the team at present. Following the tour, all rankings have been scrapped and the team was in search of those who made the trip received some excellent match experience, but their positions are not assured if better men appear.
Dr. Cora Downs Tells Of Tularemia Disease
Dr. Cora Downs, of the bacteriology department, told of tularemia and its relations to entomology in her talk before the Entomology club Tuesday.
Tularemia is a widespread disease, usually called "rabbit fever" in this community. The disease lasts from a few weeks to several months. Victims often have open sores, swollen glands, and are generally pepless. Although insects often carry tularemia, it is chiefly spread by rabbits, which transmit it when they are skinned. The death rate of the disease is low, from 4 to 16 per cent.
The club held a short business meeting with the president, John Bacon, presiding. It was decided that the spring picnic of the club would be April 26 at Lone Star state park.
IM Schedules Posted During Phone Strike
All intramural managers are requested to check the bulletin boards outside the intramural office in Robinson gymnasium for the duration of the telephone strike, Donald Powell, director of men's intramurals, said today.
"It will be impossible to contact organizations individually. Managers will find all schedule revisions listed on the boards." Powell said.

The Sooner victory evened up the count for the two-game series. The Bruins won Monday night, 3-2, in 11 innings. The game Monday night was climaxed by a battle on the field by players of both teams. Another fight was averted last night.
