Jayhawks prepared to take on K-State
Coach and players think game is crucial because of rivalry and mid-season slump
By Rob Wheat

People used to joke that the Kansas-Kansas State game would decide who would end up being ranked ninth in the Buz Eight Conference.

The annual rivalry between the two schools would be named the "Toilet Bowl" by a few jerking fans.
But Kansas coach Glenn Mason doesn't think any of those jokes are the least bit funny as he prepares for the game against Kansas on Saturday against the Wildcats.
It's a game that Mason and man<sub>12</sub>
players hope will leave the Kansas
offense and defense with the last
laugh, after they find that spark that
will help dispel the team's mid-season
blues.
Mason said that as far as the players were concerned, the rivalry with K-State was just as big as the Ohio State-Michigan rivalry.
"It is a sad state of affairs when people want to make fun of the Kansas-Kansas State,game," Mason said. "I think the last two games between us have been healthy for college football."
"You've got a bunch of kids getting together and playing their hearts out, just for the sake of playing. Mason doesn't like that thing. I now see very little of that."
with the two bad games, but we're all excited about playing K State. I think that excitement is going to carry over to Nebraska, and end up with Missouri.
Mason said that although tough competition would make the Jayhawks better in the long run, his team can be in need of victories to gain confidence.
"We're like the salesman that keeps knocking on the door and doesn't make a sale." Mason said. "It's hard to sell yourself as a better person. But when it all said and done, people are going to ask how you many you've won."

'Hawks lose to Jennies despite leads
Quarterback Chip Hilleary had the team felt as if they had taken a couple of steps backward in the last two games, he said he wanted this game to win.
"It it'd even feel like we were playing last Saturday because of the emotional tempo of the game." Hillary said. "Everybody was just there. Offensively we weren't in the swing of things. The whole game threw

The Kansas volleyball team lost in three games last night to Central Missouri State in a match that brought Kansas coach Frank耻扎 to doubt the Jayhawks' killer instinct.

"I just don't think we're much enough," Albiz said after the 13-15, 54-15, 11-15 loss in Allen Field House. "I mean, I can finish if no one is able to finish them off."
The leads she referred to have been built and lost by Kansas in numerous matches this season. Against CMSU, he played in the first and third game.
In the third game, Kansas took the first three-point lead of a tight game at 11-8 before again shutting down offensively and failing to score another point. At 11-8, Kansas had the defense serve opportunities that went wide.
"We get a lead and then hit two or three servers out." Albizt said. "It's not like we're acing them. When we are attacking them, they are just passing around them."
In the first game, Kansas came back from a 3-7 deficit and led the Jennies 13-10. After a CMSU timeout, the Jennies rallied to take the game without allowing the Jayhawks another point.

Albizt she tried to fire the Jayhawks up by bringing in fresh man setter Shelby Lard to replace junior Jule Woodruff. Lard finished the match with 21 assists, Woodruff had 18.
"I told them in practice that if we lost the first game again I would do something drastic," she said. "I would have they would fire up and play better."

The Los Angeles Piano Quartet will return to Lawrence
Sunday for its third engagement in nine years as it opens
the Los Angeles Jazz Festival.
Quartet pianist James Bonn said it was always a pleasure to play in Kansas.
"They are an energetic, dynamic piano quartet," said Jacqueline Davis, chamber music series director. "In the past, the response from the general public and students alike was very, very enthusiastic."
"We look forward to Kansas because we have played so many places there," Bonn said.

The show will feature the group's first public performance of "November 10, 1928" Hallucination in Four Hands and "Symphony No. 34," which John Harbison. The quartet also will perform Brahms' Piano Quartet in C minor, op. 60, and Schumann's Piano
In addition to playing, members of the quartet will participate in a free performance-lecture before the

you depend on what those present wanted to hear. "Usually audiences are interested in things that go wrong on tours, not in things like the tuning of violas in a concert or the sound of instruments, times when the composer will visit and will participate."
Benn said that Harrison had been approached about appearing at the KU lecture that his busy schedule required.
Members of the quartet also teach music. Bonn is on the music faculty at the University of Southern California. Volinst Joseph Gennuald and californian Peter Rejo are members of music at California State University: Northridge.
"It's fairly common for us to do some sort of presentation," said Bonn.
Bonn said on the topic of the lecture was still undecided and would depend on what those present wanted to hear.

Halloween experiences
"It's definitely the best I've been in Kansas City," said Susan Rustor. "I really don't want to be a very professional haunted house. The chanwash stuff, the dangling limbs — I just want to have a fun time."
For 16 years, the owners of the Edge of Hell have been featuring grim and gruel amusements for Halloween thrill-seekers.
Tracy Thomas, advertising coordinator for the Edge of Hell, said the owners of the haunted house were very theatrical, making the Edge of Hell more like a real haunted house than just an exercise in terror.
"It has a five-story slide, and a swinging bridge that goes over a waterfall, live animals, including mammals, and real skeletons," Thomas said.
"It depends on how scared you are," said Shirley Penner, who works for the haunted house Misty Darkness, 1327 Main St. in Kansas City.
The average cost of admission to the haunted houses is $6, and a walk-through takes about 30 minutes.
"We have a lot of different rooms, and the actors really put on a show," she said. "It seems more like seven because of all the ups and downs. Misty Darkness has been around about 10 years, and I remember here before it, will not be the same."
For those not wanting to be scared quite out of their wits, Misty Darkness offers a "Fright Level" indicator
"It's a glow-in-the-dark badge," she said. "If you're really too scared, or you have a small child, you can wear it over your shirt." A little bit, not on as much.
Some haunted houses in the Lawrence and Kansas City area include:
Mo. Open from 7:30 p.m. nightly through Halloween. Admission is $6.
The Crypt, 918 Oak St. in Kansas City, Mo. Open from 7 p.m. to midnight on weekdays, and until 1 a.m. on Saturdays and Saturdays. Admission is $6.50.
Penner said that on a busy weekend night, the line to get in could be as long as two blocks.
"Some people have gotten lost in there for an hour or more. But from the people who have been through, we've heard nothing but good."
