Oklahoma State
STILLWATER, Okla. — Oklahoma State's Big Eight championship golf and tennis teams are standing by until late June when both represent the conference in NCAA tournament play.
Oregon hosts the collegiate golf nations in Eugene June 21-27, and Northwestern holds this year's tennis nationals in Evanston, Ill., June 22-28.
State will have no team competition in the meantime, although players on both squads will be in various city and state meets to keep their play sharpened.
OSU was runnerup to Houston in the golf nationals last year. Houston again is the likely favorite, although the Cougars are not deemed quite as strong as their unbeatable crew of 1958.
In addition to Wright, OSU's top hands are Jack Ellis, Kent Hurlburt, George Cram and Terry Wilcox.
Houston beat OSU in the team medal of the Southwestern Intercollegiate meet at Houston earlier, 1215 to 1225 with Louisiana State third at 1227. More recently at the Broadmoor meet in Colorado Springs, Houston again nipped the Cowboys, 898 to 905 as the rivals ran 1-2 in that tournament.
Iowa State
Jim Wright, individual champion of the Big Eight, also was medalist in the Broadmoor competition.
AMES, Iowa-Don Anderson, sensational tackle from Atlantic, has joined six other outstanding Iowa high school football stars in choosing Iowa State for his educational future.
OSU's youthful tennis varsity has John Agnos, Ronnie Anglemyer, Frank Scarth, Bob Shaver and Harry Tavlor, all of whom have at least one more year of varsity play. Agnos, Anglemyer and Shaver are sophs.
Anderson told Coach Clay Stapleton at Veishea that he would enroll at Iowa State next fall. Anderson also told Stapleton that "he wanted to be a part of the football growth at Iowa State and that he felt his educational needs could best be secured here."
"We are extremely happy with Don's decision," Stapleton said. "He is the type of young man we want at Iowa State—both academically and athletically. He is joining a fine group of young Iowans, young men we feel will greatly improve our football future."
Anderson was twice an all-state tackle and chosen on four All American teams last fall. He stands 6 feet 5 inches and weighs 250 pounds. He has participated in football, basketball and track for Atlantic. His coach is John Hunter, one of Iowa's top ten mentors.
While we read history we make history—George William Curtis.
Missouri
COLUMBIA, Mo.—Missouri's 1960 track co-captains are John Ullery, hurdler, and Dick Cochran, discus. Both are juniors. Cochran was undefeated in his specialty this spring.
Nebraska
LINCOLN, Neb.—Nebraska's base-
ballers, go into their third-5 game
series this weekend with an outside
chance at the league crown.
The Huskers can take the conference championship by winning three from K-State providing Missouri wins three from Oklahoma State.
Another possibility for a Husker crown would be if Oklahoma State dropped two to Missouri and had one game rained out, while NU takes three from K-State. Nebraska has a 9-4 conference record to date.
Summer Sports Calendar Heavy
by Dave Butcher
Attention, summer school athletes! June 15 is the deadline for your entry in the summer intramural program.
Yes, even in the summer the student can find respite from the classroom in organized sports. The sports on tap for this summer are quite similar to the spring program.
Softball, of course, is the big team sport. With from seven to 12 softball teams each summer.
Included are softball, bowling,
tennis, golf, horseshoes, handball,
and badminton.
Unlike the spring season when the fraternities dominate the sports scene, the summer program is made up of departmental and faculty teams. A group known as the Faculty Fossils captured the summer softball championship last year.
The swimming pool will also be available for the beat-oppressed student this summer, although there will be no organized aquatic competition.
Walter J. Mikols, assistant professor of physical education, will be in charge of the summer intramural program this year, succeeding Henry Shenk.
Machen Gains Decision
Eddie Machen, fifth ranking heavweight, turned back Rueben Vargas by a unanimous decision in a 10-round fight last night. The decision was highly unpopular as the crowd cheered Vargas on, even in defeat.
Jayhawkers Drop 4th Place Sooners
NORMAN, Okla.—Kansas took a 6-3 baseball decision here yesterday afternoon over Oklahoma to enhance its chances of climbing out of the Big Eight Conference cellar.
The margin of victory for Kansas was three unearned runs for the Jayhawkers in the fifth inning.
This marked the first time since May 25, 1940 that a Yankee team had been in last place. It was also the first time since Aug. 3, 1940 that any team managed by Stengel had been last. Casey's Boston Bees were in last place on the latter date.

The grin faded when he talked about the pitchers who were walloped for 19 hits totaling 32 bases in yesterday's rout.
"I guess this makes pretty good readin' around the country," conceded Casey with a grin. "A lot of people are having a lotta fun but they better remember the fella who laughs last laughs the most."
"I've been there, before," he quipped when reminded that the Yankees' seventh defeat in 10 games and 16th in 22 had dropped them into the cellar. "I've been fifth and I've been sixth, too."
The victory set Kansas' Big Eight record at 4-10 and Oklahoma's at 6-9. Both teams will close out their seasons here today with a doubleheader.
The Sooners made a try with a 3-run rally in the bottom of the ninth, but were cut short. They loaded the bases with none out but a Kansas double play cut short their chances.
Stengel Looks Up; Sees Seven Rivals
Tom Holler was accredited with the win.
NEW YORK—(UPI)—Casey Stengel looked up at his seven American League rivals today and reminded them: "He who laughs last, laughs the most."
"You can't do anything when your pitching gets hit like that," he said. "They just gotta start gettin' guys out or we'll get pitchers who can." Jim Turner, coach in charge of Yankee pitchers, brushed off the recent inepititude of the staff as an unaccountable slump.
A last-place manager for the first time in 19 years, Stengel also warned his battered New York Yankee pitchers, "Some of you guys better start doin' better or you won't be around here very long."
The Yankees had just been tumbled into last place by a fearful, 13 to 6 shellacking at the hands of the Detroit Tigers, but there was no sign of panic by Stengel or his world champions. In fact, Stengel was as calm and collected as if he had just signed another two-year contract at $100,000 per.
Oklahoma left 14 men stranded on the base paths during the contest.
Bankers are just like anybody else, except richer.—Ouden Nash.
"They're good pitchers — they've proved it over several seasons," said Turner. "We're not doing anything special. It's just up to them to pitch their way out of the slump."
"We just can't seem to do anything right," said Berra, shaking his head in the clubhouse. "I even hear our publicity man (Bob Fischel) has got yurgitis."
Robinson Might Lose His Crown
NEW YORK — (UPI) The attitude and rulings of the New York State Athletic Commission indicated forcefully today it will vacate Sugar Rav Robinson's World Middleweight Championship at tomorrow's hearing.
Sugar Ray already has been stripped of his title by the National Boxing Association, of which the New York Commissioner is not a member.
Accordingly, former champion Carmen Basilio--dinner guest of promoter Jim Norris last night--stood out today as the man around whom the immediate future of the 160-pound division would revolve.
Norris, who was head of the International Boxing Club monopoly until the United States Supreme Court broke it up, is now co-owner of the National Boxing Enterprises of Chicago. The NBE presents the Wednesday night TV fights.
Norris dined last night with Basilio and co-managers Joe Netro and Johnny DeJohn. One observer said it looked like a "victory dinner." —A victory for the Norris forces over Robinson and his Teleprompter Corporation backers.
First baseman Ray Boone continued his torrid hitting for the A's with three-for-five.
Boston took a 1-1 lead in the second, but the A's tied it in the third and then went ahead for good with a two run spree in the fourth. Maris put the icing on the victory with his 10th four-bagger of the year.
A's Have Double Goal in Contest
A win would give the A's a sweep of the rain-shortened two game set and place them at 500 for the year with 16-16. The Missourians yesterday bombarded the Sox, 8-2, as Roger Maris topped a 14-hit attack with a two-run homer.
Rav Herbert pitched the distance for the A's, allowing just eight hits. Billy Hoeft was pinned with the loss.
BOSTON — (UPI) — The Kansas City Athletics will have a double goal today when they play the Red Sox in the two clubs' series closer. Ned Garver goes for the A's and Tom Brewer for the Sox.
