Jayhawks complete fall baseball work
Sports Writer
By JERRY FINCHER
Baseball season is finally over for the Kansas Jayhawk baseball team. Most of them have been playing baseball for eight months, and KU Coach Floyd Fleury thought it was time to re-ring him. He had a game against the second-second-games this week, but canceled them.
"I just felt we were mentally tired," Tempel said the final afterall game Sunday. "It happens every fall. I just feel we've gone far enough."
After losing ten players from the winningest club in KU history, the Jayhawks were faced with an extensive building program this fall.
however, the Hawks went 10-2 in fall games and Temple said the team definitely improved.
"Everything we asked this fail, they did it," Temple said. "All of them improved. When we first started, I had some doubts, but are only three months out of high school."
Scott Wright, senior outfitter, said the 'Hawks had the best group of freshmen since he came to KU four years ago.
"A lot of the freshmen in and picked up the things we were trying to do. They all came in here fighting for a position, Wright said. We knew they wanted us. We've got a nucleus of good ballcubes. Everybody has done about as much as they can do. We all right."
Temple was aided by the fall Lee by Eisenhower, graduate assistant, and Russ Sehon, who has helped in the fall since the first year of the fall program in 1969.
Two freshmen were the top KU hitters. Dick Lewallen led the team with a .471
batting average, followed by Roger Lee,
hit 45, and led the team with 16 hits.
Steve Jeltz, who was moved from second base to shortstop, led the Jayhawks in RRI's stolen bases and triples.
3rd baseman Roger Riley batted 424 with a team-high total of six times. Brian Gray homered three times to drive in 10 runs and hit 375.
Wright led the team in scoring with 13 runs. He batted 412, the same average as Jesse Vann, who led the team in walks with 11.
Veteran catcher Dan Graham alternated with Juan Ramon, Garden City Community College transfer.
"Ramon has a good chance of being alternate catcher for us," Temple said. "He'll definitely be our backup catcher."
The Jayhawk pitching staff is also young, with Clay Christiansen the only returning starter.
"Pitching depends on how well our veterinizers do," Temple said. "Dave Hicks, unfortunately, suffered a knee injury and be's a question mark."
However, the Jayhawks may be able to rely on two rookie pitchers.
"Jim Phillips and Randy Minstosh have both made excellent progress this fall." Temple said. "I think they'll be able to help us next spring."
Mike Watt, 4+1 last spring, allowed only one hit all fall, which came in the final inning he pitched.
"We're going to be very young," Temple said. "We go from a predetermined veteran community to a first place probably three rookies in our lineup. We get three rookie pitchers we're going to play."

Kevin Clinton, KU quarterback, sets to throw before an onrushing Lawrence Cole, Nebraska defense end, during Saturday's game in Lincoln, Neb. Clinton got this pass away, but he was sacked three times by the Cornhuskers defense and re-injured his right foot when Cam Fambrough said Clinton was "very, very doubled" for the next game, at Iowa State.

The road has been familiar but not frequently for the KU women netter team. The ECHA champions, are 3-4 for the season. Two of their victories and three of their losses have been to them.

Block and Gulifuil will play No. 1. Doubles with Staifer and Scherfer at No. 2. Eary and Kathy Merrion will probably be the No. 3 team. Merrion is questionable for the No. 4 team, but she has the fin. Leauon also is not feeling well, but Kivisto said she would play today.
No. 4, Shari Schrufer at No. 5 and Lissa Leonard at No. 6.
"We competed all the way down the line," he said. "Oklahoma is not that much better than us, even though they had another good recruiting year. We were able to hold on and win."
Even though the team was on the losing end last weekend in Columbia, Kivisto said she was encouraged by the overall play of the Jayhawks.

'Hawks open practice
The men's basketball squad, led by eight returning lettermen, began workouts yesterday in Allen Field House, preparing for KU's #2nd basketball season.
Ted Ewen, embarking on his 16th season as KU basketball coach, put the 15-man squad through a two-hour workout to train the players with practice procedure.

"The first days point out how much work we have ahead of us," Owens said "We're trying to give them the total concept of our efforts in defense and then break down into drills."
Despite the return of eight lettermen last year's 18-11 team, KU will have a relatively young team this year. Paul Terry and David Johnson will graduate and only three seniors—Randolph Carroll, Mac Stalcalp and Chester Gills—return. None of them have started a varsity.
The team was in good shape, Owens said. Carroll has been slowed with bone chips in
his left foot, but is expected to be at full speed in a week to 10 days. David Mangley, who underwent shoulder surgery in the summer to correct an old problem, and Mark Snow, who played in only four games, are both recovered and are practicing.
think everybody came back in, relatively good condition," Owens said. "I think we're going to have fairly good depth and play an intense brand of basketball. We're going to press every time we can and make sure we can or another even time we get the ball."
Owens said he was hoping to improve on last season's 146 field goal percentage.
KU's first game will be an exhibition against the Yugoslav National team Nov. 15 in Allen Field House.
"I think we were a potentially good staging team, but our selection was poor," he said. "We had to use technique, it's a matter of finding out where our high percentage shads are and how they fit in."
Men's tennis team to play exhibition at Wichita State
Wichita State has gone outside of the United States to recruit top tennis players, as evidenced by the national ranking of
The KU men's tennis team travels to Wichita today for an exhibition match against Wichita State. The match will give coach Tom Krivoist an opportunity to see how his lineup, including ineligible players and runners, will do under match conditions.
"I'm anxious to see how the guys will do against a team like Wichita State," Kvisto said.
Theses will play 1. singles, Wayne Weynall Seawall 2. Bill Krizanrion 3. Chet Collier 4. Rounds No. 5 and Rick Wertz 6. No for the Jayhaws. Ties and Runnels, who are both ineligible until second semester, will team to play 1. doubles. Collier will team to play 2. doubles, but he will not yet know who would play 3. doubles.
Mc Markham, from Australia. McMahon is ranked 14th in the Westia. Waite State also has a national champion from Canada and McMahon, including McMahon. Kivisto said.
"We'll find out the guys will fit in to national competition against Wichita. We'll be the team to beat in the Big Eight. anybody will be concerned about Kinsas."
Kansas beat Missouri last weekend and gave them a slight advantage to team from Southern Illinois. Although the loss to Tulsa University was a lopsided 2-2, Kissete said the individual matched were.
Hockey team to play ESU
The KU field hockey team goes for its own goal in a 2-1 victory against Jacobsville on Emperor State at 2 p.m. today at the Holocaum Sports Complex, 29th and Iowa. It will be the final home game for the game.
Coach Diana Beebe said the biggest problem the Jayhawks have had this season is a lack of experience.
KU's only victory in a 17 season came against Emporia State early in the year. The team won 8-2 and 11-0 in year. The Jayhawks are coming off a 4-1 victory in the Kansas City Fleet Hockey Club in Oklahoma City.
"We're standing and waiting on the ball and are not playing good field hockey," said
Beebe. "It’s total inexnerience that we’re seeing. We get so engrossed in what the ball’s doing, we're not thinking about what we should be doing."
Varsity tryouts today, tomorrow
anyone wishing to try out for the men's
varsity basketball team should report to
KU assistant coach Lafayette Norwood,
at 1:00 p.m. today and tomorrow on the
weekend.
