UP AND OVER—Gerald Carley, Wichita sophomore, executes an over the bar release.
K-State hosts gymnasts
KU's gymnastics team, which encountered several close meets last season, will probably face another cliffhanger tomorrow when the gymmasts tangle with K-State and Wichita State in the K-State Invitational.
"It should be a very close meet," coach Bob Lockwood said. "All three teams should score about 150 points."
Jayhawk gymmasts amassed 170.45 points in the meet at Wichita State last December to edge the Wildcats (163.95) and the Wheatshockers (163.05).
Fort Hays Kansas State College was also invited to enter tomorrow's meet but had to decline because of a previous commitment.
The top three finishers in each event will receive medal awards and the first place team will get a trophy.
Lockwood said that many KU gymnasts should execute their routines with more finesse in the K-State Invitational than they did in the KU Open Nov. 16.
"We didn't do well at all in the Open," the coach said. "With the exception of (Robbert) Pierson in floor exercise and the long horse and (Kirk) Gardner in the rings, we were not very polished."
Lockwood said that many performers were working on new stunts that were not perfected and could not be smoothly blended into the routines in time for the Open.
Roger Hemphill, a high bar specialist, missed the Open because of a sprained ankle but will compete tomorrow.
"The high bar crew," Lockwood said, "should be much
Howe still feels butterflies
Twenty-two years and 700 goals later, Gordie Howe still feels those butterflies.

He felt them when he scored his first National Hockey League goal as an 18-year-old rookie in 1946, and he admits he still gets them when he plays before the home crowds in Detroit.
burgh. The first period marker helped the Red Wings gain a 7-2 victory over the Penguins.
stronger with the addition of Hemphill."
The coach said that his top side horse performer, Richard Schubert will be able to compete in the Invitational.
"There was no pressure on me on the road," Howe said. "I play my own game that way. I feel butterflies at home. I won't kid anybody."
That's why he wasn't too surprised when he ruined what could have been a gala celebration back home by notching his historic 700th goal in a road game Wednesday night at Pitts-
Jitters and all, Howe said he would have preferred to score No. 700 before the home fans.
"He won't be able to perform at full strength," Lockwood said. Schubert, a freshman, suffered a strained elbow during a practice shortly after the KU Open.
"They had balloons ready for me in the rafters," he said. "My 13-year-old boy said, 'Hey dad, I'll bet those balloons are for you.'"
Team captain Robert Pierson, Lawrence senior, will enter every event. John Brouillette, KU's other all-around gymnast, will not compete in the rings because of a sore shoulder but will enter the other five events.
The other starters for tomorrow's meet include:
1. floor exercise—Dan Bradfield, Stan Clyne
2. side horse—Tom Johnson,
Richard Schubert
3. rings—Tom Johnson, Kirk Gardner
4. long horse—Ron Faunce,
Stan Clyne
5. parallel bars—John Edwards, Stan Clyne

Hayes is pro sensation; but 76ers finally halt him
It's rare when the tough pros of the National Basketball Association accord a rookie such an honor but that's the way they feel about the 6-9, 235-pound former University of Houston All-American, who is leading the league in scoring.
Stop Elvin Hayes and you stop the San Diego Rockets.

Hal Greer led the 76ers with 28 points and Luke Jackson added 26.
Hayes has been the sensation of the NBA so far this season but the Philadelphia 76ers found a way to hold him to 20 points Wednesday night and scored an easy 110-99 victory over the Rockets. Hayes, who was handicapped by four early fouls, fell 10 points below his usual scoring output.
The Baltimore Bullets retained their slim hold on first place in the East when they beat the Detroit Pistons 112-106, the Boston Celtics edged out the Milwaukee Bucks 101-99, the New York Knicks beat the Atlanta Hawks 121-113 and the Phoenix Suns defeated the San Francisco Warriors 126-97 in other games.
Wes Unseld scored 28 points and Earl Monroe had 25 as the Bullet's spoiled Paul Seymour's coaching debut and dealt the Pistons their third straight loss. Dave Bing's 29 points led the Pistons.
Larry Siegfried scored four of the Celtics' last six points in the last two minutes as Boston overcame an 11-point deficit in the third period. Bill Russell starred for the Celtics in the fourth period, blocking numerous shots and controlling the backboards.
Cazzie Russell scored 26 points, Dick Barnett 21 and Walt Bellamy 20 for the Knicks, who trailed in the third period after holding a 62-56 halftime lead.
Zelmo Beaty had 30 points and Joe Caldwell 21 for the Hawks.
The Suns broke a 12-game losing streak as Gail Goodrich scored 32 points, Gary Gregor had 18 and Dick Snyder had 17.
