Mistakes doom 'Hawks against Vandy
Compiled from staff and United Press International reports.

Mistakes have caused a scratch to appear on the Kansas football record. And scratches sometimes lead to a repetitive skip, which is just what the Kansas football team seemed to be suffering from Saturday night against Vanderbilt.
Displaying mistakes similar to the type that threw them from contention in last week's Florida State game, The Jayhawks were troubled by Vanderbilt, 41-6.
Jayhawk defenders Jeff Anderson and Jamie Steinhauser try the attempt was made during the fourth quarter of Saturday to bring down Vanderbilt running back Kenny Weatherspoon night's game. Vanderbilt defeated KU, 41-6.
And once again, the score was deceptive. Kansas moved the ball inside the Vanderbilt 10-yard line twice in the first half but came up with one field goal, instead of two touchdowns.
"We're just not making the big plays." Kansas coach Mike Gottfried said. "We're not doing the things necessary to get the touchdown. We're not performing as 11 people."
THE JAYHAWKS LED. 6-0, through most of the first half. But two Vanderbilt touchdowns in the final three minutes before half, one on a 48-yard interception return with 55 seconds left in the half, caused Kansas to go to theocker room trailing. 14-6
"I thought it was a big play," Gofftried said. "But I had hoped that it wouldn't be so bad."
The Jahawks weren't dead, but for most of the second half they certainly didn't seem to be in the best of health. Vanderbilt took the second-half kick to the Kansas six-yard line, where kicker Ricky Anderson booted a 23 yard field goal.
The drive was punctuated by two key third-down passes by Vanderbilt quarterback Kurt Page.
"I thought we were pretty good at holding them to minimal yardage on first and second down," defensive lineman Jeff Anderson said. "But we gave up some long plays. You have to be ready for that."
The Javahaws, who had 257 yards of total offense in the first half, compared to 217 yards for Vanderbilt, were victimized by the pinpoint passing of Page in the second half. Page's 46 yard pass to Joe Kelly set up a 25 yard touchdown pass to Butch Bullen that increased Vanderbilt's lead to 24-6.
THEIR RECEIVERS STARTED to run different routes on us, and their quarterback got better as the game went along. cornerback Dino Bello said, "He's an
excellent quarterback. Their receivers were open, and he was putting the ball right on the money."
The Jayhawks chances for a comeback became even smaller when a Vanderbilt kickoff bounced off the shoulder pads of freshman Johnny Diggs and was recovered by Kansas on its one yard line. Two plays later, quarterback Mork Norsest's pitch was tumbled in the end zone and recovered by Vanderbilt for a touchdown, making the
"We're so young we can't overcome things
like that," Gottfred said. "We need a little confidence."
The Commodores added a field goal and a touchdown in the fourth quarter for the final 41-6 score Vanderbilt gained 288 yards in the second half, compared to 136 yards for Kansas
"We just didn't have the ball as much." Gottried said. "When you get behind it's tough to come back. Especially with such a young team."
KANNAS' NEXT GAME will be Saturday, when the Jayhawks travel to Chapel Hill.
N C. to face the North Carolina Tar Heels
North Carolina is 0-2 this season and is
coming off a 52-20 loss 'against Boston
College
"That's not very good for us," Gottfried said. "The thing is, North Carolina has a very good team, and they're still 0-2. What happened to them against Boston College can happen to anybody Boston College can do that to you. I think we'll be facing a mad bunch of people next Saturday."
Anderson also said that North Carolina's losses would make the game a difficult one for the Jayhawks
Steiner first in cross country

KI's Brent Steiner won the men's Jayhawk Invitational cross country race Saturday in convincing (shain, beating K State's Ron Stahl by more than 12 seconds with a time of 31 minutes, 26.5 seconds for the 10,000-metre course.
K-State won the men's title with 30 points, Nebraska finished second with 41 points and KU finished third with 62 points. The top three finishers in the women's division were the same, with K-State winning with 20 points, with BU by NU with 43 points and KU with 71 points.
wildly pecked the 15-foot top women's finisher for the 5-kilometer course was Susan Glatter. Her time was more than 32 seconds faster than the time she won on with the same course against Southern Illinois last week. But this week she finished ninth.
The two hills on Rum Rock farm that give the course its reputation are Baldy and Cemetery Hill.
Men's Head Coach Bob Timmons said that the course gave Steiner a big advantage because he was an excellent hill runner and Rim Rock farm was known for its hills and turns.
"Baldy is a tough hill." Timmons said. "It is about a quarter of a mile long and it gets real steep at the end. Cemetery Hill is the las'
tough hill. Those two hills do separate the rangers."
stener knew that if he was in good shape when the top runners hit the hills, he could pull away
"It was getting late in the race, and I was running easy." Stenner said. "I knew I had to make a move and I thought Baldy would be a good spot."
good spot.
Greg Lebert, who finished last week's race against Southern Illinois in third place and second on the team, had to pull out of the race at the three mile mark because of problems with his Achilles' tendon.
Leibert had the tendon hurt worse during last week's race, but he finished the race because he had a chance to win. It was not known throughout most of last week if Leibert would be healthy enough to race Saturday.
KU finishers after Steiner were Joe Manuel, 33.08.7 for 11th place; Gordon Way, 33.18.8 for 14th place; Maurice Smith, 33.3.2 for 17th place; and Kyle Roste, 33.56.1 for 19th place.
Women's Head Coach Cliff Rovello was pleased with his team's effort, noting that each runner had improved on last week's individual times.
The top finishes for KU after Glitter were Cindy Blakeley, 18.31.1 for 14th place, Caryne Finlay, 18.43.9 for 16th place, Paula Berquist, 18.46.4 for 17th place and Trisha Mangan, 19th with a time of 18.56.1.
