A's Back To Normal
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—(UP)—The seventh-place Kansas City Athletics faced the only American League club lower in the standings today in the windup of their Chicago series.
The slumping A's dropped a 4-1 decision to fastballing righthander Dick Donovan Wednesday night for their eighth loss in the past nine games. Sherman Lollar banged his fifth homer and a single to pace Chicago's 8-hit attack on Duke Maas.
Manager Harry Craft named Ned Garver (3-1) to oppose the Sox's Jim Wilson in the 4-game series finale.
Chicago would move ahead of Kansas City into seventh place on a victory today. The A's, after Wednesday night's game, were $61\frac{2}{3}$ games out of first place with the Boston Red Sox possessing an identical mark. Chicago was a half game down the ladder.
Donovan, winning his second game against three setbacks, allowed only Vic Power's single until the eighth when the Athletics scored their lone run on Bubba Phillips' second error of the night and Mike Baxes' ringing single.
Tempers flared briefly in the
fourth and fifth innings when Donovan's fast balls brushed back hitters. Umpire Frank Dumont called both managers to the plate for warnings in the fifth.
Gridders Have Poor Practice
KU's football squad hit a low point in morale Wednesday.
Coach Jack Mitchell called the whole practice "just a bad day."
"We didn't move the ball, and nothing seemed to go too good," he said Wednesday. "There was no spirit. Everybody looked bad, including the coaches."
There was no special reason for the lack of morale, he said. "It was just one of those days. Nobody could do anything."

Three Jayhawks To Top Team
Three KU men have been named to the All America volleyball team selected last week at the National Vollyball Championship Tournament, collegiate division, in Seranton, Pa.
Kansas' volleyball club took second in the double-elimination tournament behind Florida State University, last year's champion after defeating FSU in an earlier game.
All America selections were Glen Buell and Dick Hougland, spikers and Dick Lantad, setman.
Chuck Mader, setman, was named to the second All America team and Bob Russell, spiker, earned an honor-able mention.
Kevin Jones, volleyball coach, said Tuesday that of all the collegiate division players Hougland was the hardest hitter, Laptad was the most
consistent passer and Buell was an outstanding blocker in addition to adding up a high percentage of spikes for points.
"Team captain Jim Coleman's steady but unspectacular play was overlooked in the All America selections," Jones said. "He was our floor leader, and the outstanding ball handler in the tournament."
Torrid Point Battle Looms At Columbia
FSU also placed three men on the first All America team, he said. One of last year's KU players, Tom Slaymaker, now playing for Pennsylvania State, made honorable mention even though his team didn't win a match.
One of the most engaging facets of the 30th Big Eight track and field championships this weekend at Columbia will be the scorching battle for individual high point honors.
Off the basis of two :99.7's, he is figured no worse than fifth in the century and could move up to fourth. A leg on the probably third-place 440 team is worth another $1^{1/2}$ thereby bringing his total to $23^{1/2}$.
Off the pre-meet form chart, Shelby figures to win this point battle, providing he competes in the 100. He'll come in with the league's best marks in the broad jump, 24-feet 9-inches, and low hurdles, 228. A defeat in the former event would rank as the weirdest upset of the entire conference athletic year. He could be edged in the lows, but has bettered the meet record in his last two starts.
The latter, in memory of the late coach at Nebraska and Missouri, goes to the meet's most outstanding athletics through a vote of the coaches.
It will be 4-sided and likely the most furious in the conference's modern history. The procession of contenders includes Keith Gardner of Nebraska; Orlando Hazley, Oklahoma State and Ernie Shelby and Charlie Tidwell of Kansas. Addition of the 440 relay to the standard outdoor card will give them an additional battle-ground, which may be enough to return the spotlight to the runners following 3-year domination of the Henry Schulte award by weightmen.
He owns a succession of :09.5's in the century, but hasn't beaten Givens on any track all spring. He'll also run legs on the Cowpokes' 440 and mile teams, which figure to run first and second in these events. OSU ripped the nation's best collegiate clocking, :40.1 in the former
event, against Oklahoma last week. Hazley was under 48.0 as he helped the mile combine to a 3:12.6 in the same meet. If OSU could nudge Kansas State for this title or should Hazley catch up with Givens in the 100, he could bag the point scepter. Should Shelby scratch out of the 100, he likely will be merely following the form chart.

VI 3-1825
Tidwell's predicted ledger shows a third in the 100; fourth in the 220; second in the lows, and a leg on the No. 3 140 quartet. He has run :99.5, :21.3, and :22.9. This figures to $19\%$ points. He could nail more by beating either Hazley or Givens in one or both dashes and edging Shelby in the lows. But, like Shelby, he'll be forced into qualifying rounds in three events on Friday and the grind is bound to exact a total in stamina.

If this meet were spread over a week like the Olympic Games, Gardner would be the undisputed favorite. He owns the league's best marks in the Highs, .139, and 440, 46.6, has a 220 time of .211 and a .09.6 century. He doubtless could break .23.0 in the lows.
"We were behind in the second game of our first match with Florida State," he said. "When Dale Flanagan came in, the whole team bore down and went on to win the game and the match."
Jones said there were no excuses needed for KU's winning second instead of first.
"We played our last two games as well as we ever had played, and still we lost. Florida State University was just too good."
