Page 16 University Daily Kansan, April 30, 1982 --- C KU faces Wildcats The Kansas baseball team closes out its home season this weekend with double-benders against Kansas and Iowa, who narrowly bowled Sunday at Quiziel Field. The Jayhawks, 19-23 overall, 6-10 in the Big Eight, to have to sweep the Wildcats to keep alive any hopes of staving in the playoff race. "We got to win the rest of the games, or at least seven," leftfielder Bill Yelton said. "It could be possible, if we play good enough." Pitching for the Jayhawks will be Randy McIntosh and Duke Leon tomorrow and Jim Phillips and Kevin Kroeker on Sunday. To get into the playoffs, the 'Hawks must beat Oklahoma for the fourth spot in the Big Eight playoffs. Oklahoma, 8-5 in the conference, faces Iowa State and Nebraska to close out its season. Oklahoma must lose five of eight and the Jayhawks must win seven of eight to make the playoffs. KU, with its 23 losses, is close to setting a Kansas record for most losses in a season. The 1975 team set the record with a 15-25 mark. The last team with a losing record was the 77 team at 22-23. Kansas State, 26-21 overall, 2-14 in the conference, has not won a conference game since splitting a double-header with Iowa State earlier this year. Last year, the state took three of four from the 'Hawks. Last year, when the Jayhawks went 32-19, 12-11 in conference play, it was their pitching that kept them in the games, compiling a 3.47 BRA. In 2015, they scored a BRA balloon to 5.16, while the hitting also rose, from 275 to 294. Blue Jays romp past Royals Bv United Press International KANSAS CITY, Mo.—Buck Martinez knocked in four runs with a homer and a *n* single last night to carry the Toronto Tigers to 10 victory over the Kansas City Royals. Toronto pitcher Dave Stieb slank the Royals on five hits. Stieb walked four and struck out four in winning for the first time in three decisions this season. He was one of two and also the first complete game by a Toronto pitcher in 1982, enabling the Blue Bears to extend their winning streak to three games. Martinez hit a three-run homer, his first of the year, in the fourth, to give Toronto a 4-10 lead and singled home to run cap a two-run sixth inning outburst against Kansas City starter Paul Splittert, 0-1. The Blue Jay scored the only run Stieb would need in the first without the aid of a hit when Damascus Garcia walked, stole second and took third in a score error by catcher John Wathan and scored on Earth 4's sacrifice fly. 'Hawks to play alumni The KU football players will finally get a chance to hit someone other than themselves when they take on a KU player. In tomorrow, p.m., at Memorial Stadium. "We'll play the game just like last year, by the ear," Coach Don Fambridge said. "A lot will depend on us and how large a squad they have." "This is mainly a day for our alumni. It's something they enjoyed very much last year, and it was a success because of their enthusiasm." Mike Fisher, academic counselor, will coach the alumni team. Fisher's team will have quarterback Bobby Johnson and backup quarterback from the 1968 Orange Ball squad, was named last year as the top alumni offensive player of the game. Laverne Smith, KU's all-time leading scorer, will be on hand to play for the alumni. Recent stars such as Bob Fiss, Brian Bethek, Ed Bruce, Chris Toburen and David Lawrence, who has signed a free agent contract with the Dallas Cowboys, will add youth to the alumni team. Defensive co-captains Tim Friess and Gary Coleman and offensive captains Paul Fairchild and Russ Bastin lead the Jayhawks. Quarterback had it all but had a great spring and will be counted on to lead the Jayhawks' offense. Women's golf team takes sixth In but those nine holes the women managed to shoot 35 strokes higher than they did on the front nine and the back nine, across faces, repeating last year's performance. The sixth-place finished match head coach Ross Randall's earlier prediction about the tournament, but Randall said it was the future of KU women's golf was bright. year and the three or four recruits expecting, we'll have a really strong team. "We should be much, much more competitive next year," Randall said. "With the girls we'll have back next Oklahoma State won this year's event with a three-day total of 917 strokes. Oklahoma followed with 800, then Missouri 981, Nebraska 992, Iowa State 1,002, Kansas 1,010 and Kansas State 1,261. With nine holes remaining in the 34-hole women's Big Eight Golf Championship in Ames, Iowa, Wednesday, Kansas was in good position. They had rebounded from the sixth-place position they started the day in and had a good shot at finishing fourth in the seven-team field. "The girls were disappointed with their finish," Randall said. "They didn't know how they were doing, but they knew they were beating people." Despite the disastrous final nine, the Jayhawks scored 331 for the final round, their best of the tournament, beating three teams.

GAMMONS SNOWWYO Proudly Presents JANET JAMESON 1st Set Starts At 9:30 5. 9824 36H 05 - C12 7683B - 30H 02 - 7683A - 30H 02 Graduates face tight job market By JANET MURPHY Staff Reporter TEXT TWO L BEGINNING In a little more than two weeks approximately 3,000 KU seniors will walk down the hill, pick up their diplomas and face the real world of a job. Unemployment is running at nine percent nationwide and at 5.1 percent in the United States. As the job market gets tighter and tighter, students may have a hard time finding that first job. They will be competing with more experienced workers, Don Mills, director of the local Job Service, Center, 835 Ohio St., said recently. Or no job. Mills said that he did not see any areas in the job market exending. He said that unemployment has been increasing for the last year and a half. Often, he said, when one field becomes depressed it affects other areas as well. One example is construction. With cuttables there are real estate, sales auctions and all of the others. Unemployment increase blamed "When they're down, they're down," he said. Mills said the office has many people coming in whose backgrounds are in art or craft. He said it did help to have those backgrounds for a promotion but people in those areas are taking whatever they can get in the way of jobs. "You're not getting any requests for those areas." he said. There are jobs in the business and engineering fields, he said, but opportunities are limited. For social work, he said, the government dollars being appropriated and agencies being supplied to him. Vernon Geissler, director of the University of Alabama, agreed that the market was winger less than usual. But, he said, it has been an excellent year of recruiting. He said that companies were a little more cautious of cutbacks in some production areas. Recruiters in the steel and auto areas are sounding cautious at this point. He said that the computer science, engineering and business fields were excellent areas for jobs now, and that they are still highly sought after. The fields were highly optimistic about hiring. Although the numbers have not been tabulated, Geissler said he would not be surprised if fewer students got jobs this year than last year. but, he said, 1982 was different from past years when students may have been taught to solve word problems. "This year you might get five offers whereas last year you might have had 10." Geissler said he saw the presentation of the individual as extremely important. He said that 80 percent of the students did a poor job of marketing themselves, that they cut corners, do poor resumes and do not take time for a good presentation. He suggested that students take the time to research the companies they are in interested in. He also said students should be flexible, have several job choices and be willing to leave school. "Go for broke and get some offers," he said. But Geisler cautioned against just window shopping, taking interviews with managers. Jim Henry, assistant director in the placement center, said he did not think the staff should be able to "We continue to receive many telephone calls and letters from personnel directors in businesses across the country, asking us for help them with their staffing needs," he said. Henry said that in the area of sales and marketing there was more recruitment "They're just not feeling it that bad in the professional areas," he said. In the School of Business, many students Fred Madauga, placement director, said. He said that the School had its best fall last semester, with a record number of companies interviewing students. He said that the number of companies coming in this spring semester was down, compared to last fall and last year. He said overall the number of interviews were up, but that he was not sure if the companies were really hiring more or simply were talking to more students. Recruiters remain guarded, he said, when asked how hiring was going. "When they come, they tend to be pretty optimistic about the numbers they're" "They usually respond that its the same as last year." But, he said, some of the larger companies, such as International Harvester and Caterpillar, had not done any on campus interviews. He said he saw that as an indication that things were bad somewhere. open, he said. JOURNALISM Madaus said that students who restrict themselves to a geographic area or a particular type of job may have trouble finding one. ENGINEERING He said that too often students set their job sights on the large metropolitan areas. But, he said, there was valuable experience to be gained by working on a small daily or weekly newspaper or in a small radio station. The journalism market is tight and there have been fewer recruiters on campus this year. Leibengood said that job opportunities for graduates had been declining slightly over the past decade. Engineering is an area where there seems to be plenty of jobs, but even this market is depressed somewhat, according to Pam Madi, placement director. That way students would get some experience and be available if an opening did Many newspapers are working universities to continue to do so until the economy improves. "There are jobs out there for the student who remains open," he said. Being flexible is important in journ- al settings. An esteemed dean and scho- ool placement office, said Elena Internships, usually reserved for those continuing in school, are being offered to many students. See JOBS page 11
