Jayhawks expect to control scoring
Cyclone's Walden says teams are equal
By Gene King
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas coach Glen Mason and Iowa State coach Jim Walden said that in order to gain a victory tomorrow, the game cannot be a blowout.
"If it is high-scoring, then I think we will have trouble. I don't think we can get into a scoring match with them," Mason said.
Last week, Iowa State squeaked by Tulane with a 25-24 victory.
Annual, 2-3, will face Iowa State,
2-2, at 1 p.m. tomorrow at Memorial
Stadium.
"Kansas, Kansas State and we will see so many homecomings this season that there is no reason to prepare differently." Walden said.
"It's going to have to be a squeaker." Walden said. "In fact, all our wins are going to have to be squeakers."
"My kids will go to the hotel Friday night, just the same as any home game," Mason said.
against Tulane."
The Jayhawks opened their Big Eight Conference season last week with a 45-6 loss against Oklahoma. Tomorrow will be Iowa State's first conference game.
The Cyclone offense will be led by quarterback Bret Oberg and tailback Blaise Bryant.
Tomorrow is also Kansas' homecoming, but neither coach is preparing his team differently.
"This should be a classic battle between two equally matched teams." Walden said. "It should be an exciting game."
Oberg is the fourth-ranked passer in efficiency in the nation.
But Mason said he didn't think things were exactly equal.
"Their program is definitely ahead of ours at this point," Mason said. "They beat us last year and beat us soundly."
Kansas lost to the Cyclones 42-14 last year in Ames, Iowa.
"He is not a great anything, but he is a good what-we-need," Walden said.
"They are a little bit of a confusing football team," Mason said. "They shouldn't have won the Tulane game by their performance. But they are a better team than how they performed

Coach Jim Walden 2-2

"He is a good scrambler. He can cause some problems for us," Mason said.
Walden said Oberg was a good,
strong competitor.

Game
Walden said he didn't know that his running back would be so good.
Bryant is the second-leading rusher in college football this year. Through four games, he has rushed for 562 yards. Against Tulane, he rushed for 181 yards on 21 carries.
You never know what you're getting until a player actually plays," Walden said. "Bryant has done a good job for us. He has fulfilled a role for us similar to what Tow Sands has done for Kansas."
Walden said he was concerned with the duo of quarterback Kelly Donohoe and wide receiver Quintin Smith.
Inside linebacker Mike Shane returns to the starting lineup for the Cyclones after missing the last two games because of a bruised ankle. Shane was an honorable mention All-American last year.
"He is a slash-type runner. Kind of a Barry Sanders-type runner," said Kansas linebacker Dan Newbrough. "He is the big key in the game. Stop him, and you stop the run."
Probable Starters: Offense
Sands, Kansas' starting tailback, has rushed for 382 yards in five games. He has rushed for more than 100 yards twice this season, with a game high of 146 yards against Kent State.
"They are so explosive," Walden said. "They have that big play ability."
Donohue has connected with Smith for 387 yards and five touchdowns

Jayhawks breaking from pack Cross country team to race in Michigan

Cross country coach Gary Schwartz said that the first-place finish at the Johnson County Invitational two weeks ago did a lot for the women's team.
winning brought the girls' team much closer together," Schwartz said. "It developed a real team cohesiveness."
Kansas' cross-country team will try to continue its winning streak on both the men's and women's sides in the NCAA Division I national in East Lansing, Mich.
The Jayhawks will be competing against Michigan State, Michigan and Ohio State in both the men's 8-kilometer and the women's 8-kilometer.
Kansas heads into the meet with two first-place and two second-place finishes on the men's side, and one first-place and three third-place finishes on the women's side.

Daniela Daggy runs warm-up drills at practice for the next meet.
"We were close to Michigan on the giris' side, but Trish didn't have a good race," Schwartz said. "If she can convert some of her good practices into good meetings, we'll do well."
Schwartz commented on the performance of Trish Brown, Shawnee senior.
Brown agreed with Schwartz's analysis. Brown has had problems since the first meet of the season, when she collapsed from heat and fatigue. In her last two meets, she finished a disappointing eighth and third. But she is confident about this weekend.
"If I just get in there and run like I do at practice, 'I'll do well,' Brown said. "I have to try not to worry so much about time or who I'm supposed to follow."
A concern for Schwartz last week was freshman Daniel Daggy, who sprained her ankle during practices before the Johnson County Invitational. She did not compete in the meet because of the injury.
But Schwartz said Daggy's ankle was fine this week and she would be ready for tomorrow's race.
"You're never quite sure how freshmen are going to respond," Schwartz said. "But I in really want their transition into college running."

"I think he's got a real good chance of winning it." Schwartz said.
Mitchell, who led the majors with 47 home runs, homered for the second straight game and singled twice. Clark, who drove in a record six runs in the opener, singled and walked, extending his streak of reaching base to seven.
CHICAGO — The Chicago Cubs still can't figure out Kevin Mitchell and Will Clark. But Mark Grace and friends had no trouble solving Rick Reuschel and salvaging the split they needed.
That, along with a three-run double by Grace in the sixth that gave him three hits for the second consecutive night, was enough for three Chicago pitchers to withstand San Francisco's sluggers.
Pitcher Mike Bielecki, the worst hitter in the major leagues, singled, sparked a six-run first inning, and the Cubs held San Francisco at bay, winning 9-5 late night and tying the National League playoffs on one game each.
"It's only going to come through if they make it happen," he said.
Chicago bounced back from Wednesday's 11-3 rout in a hurry. They chased the 40-year-old Reuschel with five hits, including an RBI double by
Grace, and Jerome Walton capped the outburst against Kelly Downs with his second single of the inning.
Les Lancaster pitched four innings for the victory.
Sports briefs
GOODEN TESTED: Dwight Gooden of the New York Mets underwent tests for a possible tumor in his pitching arm, the team confirmed yesterday, although there never was any real reason to believe he had cancer.
Mets spokesman Rick Lawes said that Gooden still had a small tear in a muscle in the back of his right shoulder and that he was undergoing
a therapy program at his Florida home.
The scare began when an unidentified man, who claimed to be a doctor affiliated with the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, called the players association last month. He said the shoulder injury that sidelined Gooden for much of the second half of the season might have been the result of a tumor.
Former track star indicted Hershberger faces 37 fraud charges
The Associated Press
Hershberger contributed to the track programs at KU and Wichita State University. He funded an annual Thanksgiving dinner for indigents for many years and set up a foundation to make grants to people who had suffered severe financial setbacks because of circumstances they couldn't control.
Hershberger, 57, a lifelong sports enthusiast, was a nationally ranked track athlete at the University of Kansas. He competed in athletic events into his 50s and was elected in 1895 to be depicted on the front of Wheaties cresal boxes.
Once rumored as a possible Republican gubernatorial candidate, Hers伯BERger's political aspirations were snuffed out by his financial problems. He sold his multi-million dollar Wichita mansion last year and moved into a condominium. He also ended his participation in the annual Thanksgiving dinners for the needy.
WICHITA, Kan. — A federal grand jury returned a 37-count indictment yesterday against Wichita ollman and philanthropist Jim Hershberger and a business associate.
Dyrk J. Dahl, who was vice president of Heraburger's oil company, already has pleaded guilty to mail fraud. Dahl is expected to testify for the prosecution if the charges against Heraburger and Levandowski go to trial.
Hershberger did not return a call yesterday from The Associated Press.
His lawyer, Tom Haney, Topea, said Hershberger had not yet appeared before the U.S. magistrate in Topeka.
Information from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. touched off the federal investigation. Hershberger owed $1.5 million to the Bewlion State Bank in Wichita when it was declared insolvent and taken over by the FDIC in February 1987.
The indictment came one year after the jurors began hearing testimony. It alleges that mail and bank fraud and other offenses were committed by Hershberger and co-defendant Steve Levandowski.

The Kansas men's and women's tennis teams will open the season this weekend in two away tournaments.
The men, who will play in the ITCA/Rolex Regional Qualifier in Wichita, will go without three of their top players, John Falbo, Chris Walker and Craig Wildey.
"That is going to allow the other guys a great opportunity," said Scott Perelman, director of tennis.
Perlman said they decided not to enter Falbo, who is ranked 15th in the nation and has been the tournament's singles champion the past two years.
Chris Walker and Craig Wildey, last year's doubles winners, will not play because of injuries. Wildey and Walker are both recovering from surgery.
Six players traveled yesterday to Wichita. The top-seeded Kansas players for the tournament are Jeff Gross, followed by Rafael Rangel, Carlos Fleming, Paul Garvin, Cuong Nauyen and Ian Goodman.
Gross will go into the tournament as the No. 2 secd. Perelman said.
"Since I have been here, we have had really good success in this tournament," Perealman said.
"His expectations are high and I think he could do well. If he plays
well, he will be successful," he said. Perelman said that Rangel had had a good summer and was playing as well as he ever had.
"We surely have the talent to win the singles and the doubles," Perelman said.
Perealm said that Gross and Rangel would lead the Jayhawks in the doubles, followed by Fleming and Garvin, and Nguyen and Goodman.
"I am looking forward to using this time to keep improving. 'It's going to be a good time for me to get a look at everyone,' he said.
Michael Center, the new women's tennis coach, will take the women to the Missouri Valley Intercollegiate Championships in Springfield, Mo.
The top seed for Kansas is Eveline Hamers. Meerssen, Netherlands, sophomore, who earned All-America honors last year. She was ranked 16th in the nation in the preseason poll.
The 'Hawks will meet four other Big Eight schools, Oklahoma State, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Colorado, at the tournament.
Center said that Tita Pineo, Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, sophomore, and Minda Pels, Santa Monica, Calif., junior, would not travel to Springfield. Pineo cut her finger three weeks ago, and Center said that Pels "had been experiencing pain in the neck."
Perelman, who had coached the women for the past six weeks, said he knew she was good, but that he never knew exactly how good she was until now.
"She is a good person and could be an outstanding leader. She gives your program credibility. She is a returning All-American as a sophomore. That has never happened in Kansas history. Ever."
"Eveline Hamers is as fine a player as we've ever had here, man or woman." Perelman said. "The girl is a big-time player.
Helping Hamers are Renee Raychaudhuri, Stacy Stotts and Page Goins.
"Some people are going to be playing higher in the lineup than ever before." Center said.
He said the team had a walk-on, Susan Noftager, Oklahoma City, Okla., freshman, who was an outstanding player in the juniors championships. Noftager still has to be certified academically before she will be eligible to compete, Center said.
"She is going to be a big addition to the team," he said.
Of the Big Eight schools, the women will play against Oklahoma State, the defending conference champions, and Kansas State.
