KU In Final Bid For League Title
KU's baseball team makes a final bid for the conference championship Friday and Saturday when it meets Iowa State at Ames. The Jayhawkers are presently in fifth place.
The conference race is now at the stage where no team can falter and remain in contention. Only two clubs are out of the running: Kansas State and Colorado.
The Jayhawkers had open dates last weekend, and had their chances helped somewhat when first place Missouri dropped two out of three to Nebraska.
Would Rather Play
Kansas Coach Floyd Temple doesn't think the layoff did the team much good, however. "I would rather play than have an open date. The more we play, the better we are." he said.
"We've got to have good pitching and hitting. If we lose one more game, we're out of it," he added.
"If we win three, we'll be in definite contention, but we have to win all three against Iowa State," Temple said.
Wiley Has Lost One
Temple will pitch his three aces: Ron Wiley, Larry Miller, and Bob Shirley against the Cyclones.
Wiley has lost only one game all season and Miller was brilliant in his last outing on May 4 against Colorado. He gave a no-hit, no-run performance in the first game of a Saturday doubleheader and pitched one hitless inning in relief during the second game.
Iowa State and Nebraska each now has a 7-5 record. The Oklahoma Sooners are 5-4.
Kansas, Oklahoma, Iowa State and Nebraska each has six games left to play. Missouri and Kansas State, 2-10, have two games each.
The Sooners meet Nebraska at Lincoln in a nine-inning game Friday and a seven-inning doubleheader Saturday. Kansas plays Iowa State at Ames, while Colorado takes on Kansas State at Manhattan.

Vacation Time
Whenever vacation time comes upon any university or collage, it automatically becomes the hub of a great wheel which extends its spokes outward to cover the nation. STUDENTS ARE ON
THEIR WAY HOME.
Transportation is always a major factor of concern to the student. It need be no longer. If you are looking for a ride home, there is a good chance that out of the 8,316 students attending KU, ONE IS GOING YOUR
WAY.
The sure method of securing that ride is to advertise in the Classified Section of the

Teams Must Cut Rosters
926 Mass.
A host of players on 10 major league teams today probably felt like a traffic violator waiting for a patrolman to hand him a summons.
Six clubs already have trimmed their rosters to the required 25-player limit but 18 more heads will roll before the cutdown deadline at midnight Wednesday.
In the National League, the Cubs, Pirates, Giants and Phillies completed transactions Monday that enabled them to square away their

The Tigers and the Athletics are the only American League teams not faced with roster-trimming worries. The Senators and the Indians each must cut three players, the White Sox are two over, and the Yankees, Red Sox and Orioles one each.
