KU Swimmers Need Victory Wednesday To Even Mark
The Kansas University swimming team returns to action Wednesday when they meet the Emporia State Hornets at 4 p.m. in Lawrence. The Jayhawkers succumbed to defending Big Seven champion Oklahoma in their opening meet Saturday afternoon in Norman.
Did as Well as Possible Student coach Charles Edwards said he thought the team did as well as could be expected against the mighty Oklahomaans. In addition to winning the Big Seven title, the Sooners also finished third in the NCAA meet last year.
"We still have lots of room for improvement," said Edwards, "but our times were good for the opening match. Some of our boys are inexperienced, but I expect them to improve in the next few outings."
The Jayhawkers have seven lettermen returning to this year's tank squad. One of these, John Poort, a Topeka junior who specializes in the free style and distance events, is out with appendicitis and won't be available until the latter part of the season.
Six Other Lettermen
Other returning lettermen include Edwards, who swims the freestyle and sprint events; Tom Clevenger, breast stroke; Frank Frudenthal, back stroke; Droste Millage, sprints; John Drowatky, free style and breast stroke; and Bill Matthews, the squad's letterman diver.
New members who have showed promise of becoming point winners are Bob Peterson in the distance races, Steve Hill in the sprints, John Ryberg, backstroke, and Buzz Ashcraft in the diving events.
Edwards said he expects Oklahoma to repeat as the conference champion this year. "Iowa State is always tough," he said, "and should finish in the runner-up spot. Nebraska, K-State, Colorado, and Kansas will battle it out for the remaining places." Missouri does not compete in Big Seven swimming.
Following the Emporia State dual the Jayhawkers remaining schedule is as follows:
Feb. 8 — K-State—Here
Feb. 9 — Ft. Hays—There
Feb. 16 — Colorado—Here
Feb. 20 — K-State—There
Feb. 23 — Iowa State—There
Feb. 26 — Emporia State—There

Pin Season In Full Swing; Campus Tourney March 18
The bowlers got back into the swing of things at the Jay Bowl in the Student Union Monday night. Bascom C. Fearing, Recreation Manager, said that all but two of the leagues which bowled in the fall semester are in action again this semester.
11 Leagues Bowling
About 11 leagues, each made up of six four-man or woman teams are the backbone of the KU bowling program. A Classic league, composed of the best men bowlers on the campus, previously bowled at 5 p.m. Friday but according to Fearing, it may not be continued this semester due to a lack of two teams.
The Classic league is scratch and has five-man teams. A Mixed league bowls every Sunday night and according to Fearing, there are still a few openings.
Bowling at KU is by no means limited to league play. According to Bob Chapman, chairman of the men's bowling committee, three home and home matches are being planned with Kansas State, Ottawa University and either the universities of Oklahoma or Iowa.
Tournament March 18
Both a men's and women's team would take part in this series with the possibility of either a single or doubles squad also participating.
Chapman said a campus tournament will begin March 18 for male faculty members, students and university employees. Trophies will be awarded in the singles, doubles and team events. The tournament will be handicap.
During the months of December, January, February and March, the women bowlers participate in the Pennsylvania State College's telegraphic tournament. Results from this tourney are sent in to a central headquarters and standings are printed and mailed to all participating schools.
Student chairman of intranural bowling besides Chapman are Barbara Barnhill and Linda Jennings, co-chairmen of the women's bowling committee.
The breakdown of leagues and when they bowl is as follows:
Monday—Blue, 6:15 p.m. and Rock,
8:30 p.m.
Tuesday—Sunset (women), 6:15 pm and Chalk, 8:30 pm
Wednesday - Hilltop, 4 p.m., Prairie,
6:15 p.m. and Jay, 8:30 p.m.
Thursday—Oread (women), 4 p.m.

Midwestern basketball fans who attend the Phillips 66-Wichita Vickers basketball game in Allen Field House at 7:30 p.m. tonight will be accomplishing a dual purpose, seeing a good basketball game and combating heart disease.
Vickers Face OilersTonight
All proceeds of the contest will go to the Kaw Valley Heart Association.
Guard Bill Hoagland of Phillips and forward Bob Kenney of the Vickers, both former Kansas stars, will be meeting again on the court—this time on opposite teams. Hoagland and Kenney completed their college careers at Kansas in 1952 when the Jayhawkers won the Big Seven Conference, NCAA championship and then filled seven berths on the victorious U. S. Olympic basketball squad.
The field house floor tonight will be full of former college greats. Three other 1956 Phillips Olympians (besides Hoagland who also played on the 1956 U.S. team) are 6-9 center Chuck Darling, the Iowa University All - American star; Burdy Haldorson, 6-8 former Colorado great and Jim Walsh, 6-4 ex-Stanford player.
And for those who are used to Wilt Chamberlain's towering figure there are no disappointments in store.
Wichita's 7-0 Don Boldebuck, former Houston star and 7-3 Wade Halbrook from Oregon State will provide plenty of height.
In the 1955-56 Big Seven confer ence basketball race Nebraska finished sixth, winning three and losing nine.
The Nebraska Coliseum, where the Cornhuskers play all their basketball games, seats 9,000 people.
