Volleyballers Prep For National Tournament
The University of Kansas Volleyball Club held its final practice match of the season Sunday, playing Washburn University to a stand-off, three games to three. Without the services of setman Dick Laptad, who has an infected toe, the KU team played well but was forced to come from behind to square the match.
The result was left as no decision because this was a warm up match for both teams in preparation for the national Championship to be held in Scranton, Pennsylvania, May 7-10. The Jayhawkers hope to improve on their third place finish of last year.
The KU club has a tournament record of 35 games won and 30 lost against all competition for the season. Commenting on this record, Coach Kevin Jones said, "We have played YMCA teams for the most part. Although we have barely broken even, when we get to the Nationals we should be one of the favorites in the collegiate tournament."
If Washburn, made up primarily of players from the Topeka YMCA, can maintain the quality of play shown Sunday, they are a threat to finish on top. An all Kansas finals

Drilling for 21/2 hours, Jack Mitchell and his staff ended the first week of spring football practice with a controlled scrimmage Saturday in Memorial Stadium.
Scrimmage Shows Progress
The 64 men were divided up into squads, running the first three teams against the fourth, fifth, and sixth units.
The Saturday scrimmage was the first in a series that Mitchell plans this spring. League rules allow the Jayhawkers 20 practices during the spring.
Dodgers, Giants Pull Most Fans
The new fans in Los Angeles and San Francisco accounted for 35 per cent of the total attendance at Major League baseball games during the first two weeks of the season.
Mitchell seemed satisfied with Saturday's practice.
"We haven't had time yet to get much done, but I think we're showing progress," he said.
Mitchell said Homer Floyd, star right halfback, is out with an injury and would probably see limited action this spring.
KU Beats Tigers In Golf, Tennis
Jayhawker golf and tennis teams matched the fair weekend weather with equally fine playing as they defeated the Missouri Tigers at Columbia on both the courts and links.
The netmen won all but two sets as they trounced the Tigers 7-0. KU winners were Lynn Sieverling, Bob Peterson, Gene Kane, Bob Mettlen, and Malcolm Applegate.
The Jayhawkers barely slipped by MU 8-7 on the golf course as medalist honors went to two Tigers who were only four over the 72 par course.
Bill Toalson and Jim Davies dropped their rounds to Missourians. Bob Wood, Don Wilson and Leon Roulier were winners.

KU Top Winner At Drake; Big Eight Dominates Meet
Kansas University athletes raced to two relay titles and three individual championships at the Drake Relays this weekend. No other school entered in the huge track carnival could match this collection of first places.
Despite chilly weather and a slow track four records tumbled on Friday and Saturday running the 2-day total to eight.
Kansas was also represented in the college division as tough Pittsburgh State won the mile relay championship in 3:19.7 on a 49.3 anchor by Bob Wooten.
Ohio University pulled up seven yards behind the winning Gorillas with Emporia State third. Emporia State also won a second place in the sprint medley, finishing four yards behind Western Michigan.
KU's Al Oerter failed in his bid to take three straight double titles (Texas, Kansas and Drake Relays) when he was knocked to third in the shot put by Henry of Minnesota who hit 55 feet 9 inches and Dan
Erwin of Oklahoma with 54 feet 7 inches. Oerter hit 54 feet 3 inches.
Oerter did defeat California's Ring Babka to win the discus, though. He fired over 185 feet.
Keit Floerke won the hop-step-jump with a 48 foot 9 $ \frac{3}{4} $ inch effort, four inches better than the record. Floerke also placed second in the broad jump, behind teammate Ernie Shelby.
A new 440-yard hurdle record Friday and a fine 1.544 half Saturday in the 2-mile relay was the work of Clif Cushman.
In the 2-mile relay Cushman's fine half gave Kansas a 3-yard edge but Dale Lubs, running a 1:56.8, finished four yards behind on the second carry and that four yards still separated KU from leading Iowa State after Tom Skutka ran a 1:54.8.
Bob Tague, former Rosedale high star, eliminated the 4-yard deficit in the first quarter and beat off a late challenge by Houston's Don Loadman to win with ease.
The Relays, regarded as one of the nation's four best, was dominated by Big Eight teams which won six of eight university division relays.
Oklahoma State, sparked by Orlando Hazely, won the 440- yard relay in 41.4 and the 880 in 12:47.
Nebraska swept the shuttle hurdle relay after winning the sprint medley Friday.
Two of the record breaking performances Saturday came in the college division as Tennessee A&I ran the 880-yard relay in 1:25.6 and Howard Payne set the 2-mile mark of 7:39.3.
Jim Grelle of Oregon ran the mile in 4:07.9. Kansas State's quartermiler Delosse Dodds again was defeated by Texas' Eddie Southern as the Wildcats finished a good second in the mile relay.
Dodds touched off only two yards behind Southern on the final carry. He ran a 47.6 but still finished 15 yards behind the Olympian.
Jayhawkers Win Two, Move Up
The Kansas Jayhawkers won two out of three games from the league-leading Oklahoma State Cowboys last week-end to remain in contention for the conference baseball championship.
KU won Friday, 7-6, and split Saturday's double-header, winning the first game 1-0 behind the 2-hit pitching of Larry Miller and losing the nightcap, 4-2.
In Friday's game, a two out single in the ninth inning by Barry Donaldson, drove in the winning run and gave Ron Wiley his first victory of the season. Donaldson also homered in the second inning.
Wiley struck out eight and walked six in picking up the victory. He also collected three hits including a homer to drive in three runs and aid his own cause.
In Saturday's first game, KU picked up its lone run in the second inning as Wiley singled, Miller doubled and Donaldson drove in Wiley. These were also the Javahawks only two hits.
One run was all Miller needed however, as he spun a 2-hitter, struck out eight and walked only one in pitching one of the best games in his brilliant pitching career at Kansas.
This was his fifth victory of the season against no defeats, and his third victory in conference play.
Miller also started the second game, but was relieved in the fourth inning by Gary Russell with the score tied 2-2. In the sixth inning, the Cowboys tagged Russell for two more runs, and went on to win 4-2. This was Russell's second loss against no victories.
Oklahoma State now has a conference record of 5-3, while KU is a half game behind them with a 4-3 standing.
Other games this week-end saw Missouri win two out of three from Kansas State. MU won by scores of 24-2 and 5-0, and K-State won 6-3. Oklahoma defeated Iowa State at Norman by the scores of 11-8, 4-2 d. 9-1, Nebraska defeated Colo-
Oklahoma defeated Iowa State at Norman by the scores of 11-8, 4-2 and 9-1. Nebraska defeated Colorado 9-7 and 4-3, while Colorado won 4-3.
