Kansas beat the William Jewell College junior varsity team yesterday 39-9 at Memorial Stadium in the Jahayhawk's second blowout of the game. Three weeks ago, Kansas beat Belleville College by 32 points.
The win evened the Jayhawks' record at 2-2. It was their first victory in three weeks.
"It's been a long time," coach George Warhop said yesterday with a smile.
Rank's William Jewell counterpart, Jim McCulloch, completed only six of 17 passes with three interceptions.
The Cardinals took an early 2-0 lead when lineman Mike McLaughlin tackled Rank in the end zone for a safety. McCulloch then passed to tight end Jeff Hudson and downcourt to raise the lead to 9-0.
But that was all the Cardinals could score. Kansas came back with a 28-yard pass from Rank to receiver Mark Hammonds, a 45-yard pass from Rank to Rob Finney to put Kansas ahead 2-0.
"After awhile, about everything we were doing on offense worked," coach Mike Yaworsky said.
"He threw the ball high a couple of times, but when he calmed down he was okay." Warbob said.
Last week Van Dyne kicked a wind-aided 57-yard field goal against Pratt. Yesterday, he was two for four in field goals. He made the 55-yard with about ten yards to spare, then was short on a attempt. He also missed wide right on another 55-yard attempt.
With 18 seconds left in the first half, KU kicker Chace Van Dyne kicked a 55-yard field goal to make the score 23-9.
"He's just showing he's got a heck of a foot." Warhop said.

Bullpen shines in Cardinal victory
United Press International
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Cardinals have exorcised the ghost of reliever Bruce Sutter.
All year, St. Louis manager Whitey Herzog has played master pupetter in pulling the right strings when it came to the bulpen.
Not an easy task considering the Cardinals this season were without Sutter, baseball's premier reliever, who went to Atlanta as a free agent.
The bullpen was vital in yesterday's 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 5 of the National League playoffs. A home run by Ozzie Smith in the ninth inning
put the Cardinals within one victory of the World Series.
Ken Dayley, Todd Worrell and Jen Lahti combined to pitch 5 % innings, allowing just two hits and no runs.
"This was the best group effort of the year," said Dayley, who allowed two hits in 2% inmings. "It's the pattern of success we've used all year."
"Today's ballgame was important," Herzog said. "If we didn't win, I didn't think we would have a chance. I wanted him to get us to the seventh inning and he did.
Starter Bob Forsch lasted just 3 $ \frac{1} {2} $ innings, forcing St. Louis manager Whitley Herzog to his bullpen.

"I was a little worried that we were
Los Angeles tied the game 2-2 on Bill Maddock's homer in the fourth with one out. Forsch walked Mike Marshall and Mike Sclecia reached his homeer's interference Greg Brock just missed a home run on his first pitch.
But Herzog said Forsch did not run out of gas.
"He pitched only 37 pitches," Herzog said. "He was getting the ball up. He got the ball up on Madlock for the home run and then when he got the ball up on Brock, I decided it was time to pull him."
St. Louis 3, Los Angeles 2
Dayley pitched until the seventh, when he walked Scioscia and allowed a single to Cabell.

'Hawks bask in spotlight
By Frank Hansel Of the Kansan sports staff
Basketball coach Larry Brown said it was a compliment. Forward Calvin Thompson said it wouldn't bother the team, and guard Cedric Hunter said it would give Kansas something to prove.
The "t" is the preseason attention Kansas has received. In The Sporting News preseason basketball poll, the Jayhawks are ranked tenth and will play in the national spotlight when it plays in the National Invitation Tournament.
Kansas will open the 16-camp preseason tournament against Pepperdine Nov. 22 in Denver, Colo. The remainder of the basketball schedule been released, sports information information Doug Vance said yesterday.
Guard Cedric Hunter said Kansas's preseason ranking would give the team an opportunity to prove itself, and the NIT tournament would provide the team with a measuring stick.
"It gives you an idea or where you stand," Hunter said. "It will also give us an idea of the type of teams that will be in the NCAA tournament next spring."
Thompson said the preseason attention shouldn't bother the team's preparations.
Thompson and the rest of the team met with reporters during the annual Media Day yesterday at Allen Field House.
"We realize we have a lot of talent here and a great coach, but we still haven't won any games this year," Thompson said.
Brown officially opened the 1985-86 season this morning with a scrimmage at 12:01 a.m. The Jayhawks practice at 3:30 this afternoon.
The attention isn't any different from last year when Kansas went to the Great Alaska Shootout and played Maryland in its opening game, Brown said.
"There have been great expectations with every team I've coached," Brown said. "I don't look at it as a negative effect. The players should be flattered, but we still have a lot of work to do."
Brown said there were more quality teams this year, and the teams finished ahead of the Jayhawks last season. The Jays also had a lot of players coming back.
Kansas has two recruits this year,
Archie Marshall, a 6-foot-6 transfer
from Seminole Junior College in
Tulsa, Okla., and 6-7 Jerry Johnson
from Benson High School in Omaha,
Neb.
"I think we will be a better ball club, but I don't know if our record will be better, because of our schedule," Brown said. "I hope we play and play better fundamentally. Of course I always hope for that."
Kansas finished with a 26-8 record last year, and lost to Auburn in the quarterfinal of the southeast regional of the NCAA tournament. In the Big Eight conference the Jayhawks had an 11-3 record and came in second place behind Oklahoma.
"We will have good competition in practice this year, and that in itself is a plus," Brown said. "That will also give us added depth on the bench, because they are a year older and more experienced."
Royals face elimination in AL series
The Associated Press
TORONTO — George Brett does not like the situation his Kansas City Royals are in, but he's seen it so many times that he thinks it may work to their advantage.
"Maybe it's the experience of losing so many playoff games and the only World Series we were in. It could help." Brett said. "No one's uptight about it."
Once again, the Royals will be facing elimination in the American League playoffs when they go into tonight against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Toronto could have wrapped up the best-of-seven series Sunday in Kansas City but lost 2-0 The Blue Jays now return to familiar Exhibition Stadium and can bring the first World Series to Canada by winning either tonight or in Game 7 tomorrow.
"If we can't win one out of two, we don't deserve to be there," said Toronto's Jesse Barfield, who has six hits and four runs batted in through five games.
The Blue Jays got eight hits off Danny Jackson in the fifth game, the same number of hits by Kansas City. But Toronto, which hit nearly 300 with runners in scoring position during the regular season and was 11-for-38 in those situations during
So Moseby and his teammates packed up their equipment — and their still-corked champagne — and headed back to Toronto, where they will face surprise starter Mark Gubicza in Game 6.
"I just want to leave this game in Kansas City and get home. We didn't get the job done," Toronto's Lloyd Moseby said.
the playoffs, did not get any timely hits.
Gubica, a starting pitcher the entire season, began the playoffs in the bullpen. He was odd-man-out when Kansas City Manager Dick Dhowser set up a rotation of left-henders Charlie Leibrandt, Bud Black and
But Howser's plans changed Sunday when Jackson started while Black, who was scheduled to pitch Game 6, got ready in the bullpen.
"We had decided before the game that if we needed a left-hander, Black would be it." Howser said. "Buddy Black was up twice and threw a lot of pitches out there."
Danny Jackson, along with righty Bret Saberhagen.
"Everybody was in the bullpen, Bret and everybody." Howser said. "We had to win. It'll probably be the same situation tonight."
So. Howser won the game but lost a starting pitcher. It was a trade he did not mind making.
Jets rip Miami, take first in AFC East
United Press International
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - At ballettime, the New York Jets and their fans toasted a time when they were among football's elite. By the time last night's game with the Miami Dolphins ended, there was similar reason to celebrate.
Running almost exclusively behind right tackle. Marvin Powell and guard Dana Alexander, McNeil carl fernandes, and one of the Jets' second-half touchdowns.
With Freeman McNeil gaining 171 yards and the defense harrying and hurrying Miami quarterback Dan Marino, the Jets moved into first place in the AFC East with a 23-7 victory over the Dolphins.
The only thing I was sure of was
that we had to keep the ball and move the chain," said Meill, the AFC's leading rusher. "We couldn't afford to give Marino the ball despite the fact that our defense played well."
"What they did to us was mind boggling." Miami wide receiver Mark Clayton said. "Nothing like this has happened to our offense since I've been here. I'm not used to this."
The defense forced Marino into his worst game statistically as a starter. Miami had 200 yards to New York's 476 yards and had the ball 22:46 to 37:14 for New York.
Before 73,807 people in Giants Stadium, the Jets won their fifth straight game and ended a seven-game losing streak to Miami. The Jets are now 5-1, first in the AFC.
Miami, which ended its four-game winning streak, dropped to 4-2.
The last time the Jets were in sole possession of the AFC first place was 1969 when they had a quarterback named Joe Natham. In an emotional halftime ceremony last night, the Jets retired Natham's No. 12 jersey.
New York's Ken O'Brien completed 18-of-28 passes for 239 yards. Marino, facing a variety of blitzes, had to unload quickly and ineffectively.
Marino completed 13-of-23 passes for 184 yards with much of that yardage coming after New York scored in the first half, and the second half to put the game away.
The Jets' second-half touchdowns came on Kurt Sohn's 15-yard catch and Tony Paige's 1-year run. Pat
Leahy kicked field goals of 22,18 and 18 yards.
Miami scored on Ron Davenport's three-yard run late in the third quarter to draw the Dolphins to 13-7. But Leahy kicked an 18-yard as the period ended. And with McNeil carrying three times for 36 yards to set up Paige's one-yard score, the Jets moved ahead 23-7.
The Jets dominated the second half, controlling the ball for 22:49 compared with an unlucky 7:11 for the Dolphins.
Marino was pressured all through the first period, completing just 3-of-7 passes for 13 yards. The Jets continued the harassment in the second quarter and moved ahead 6-0 when Leahy connected on an 18-yarder with one second left in the half.
Kansas bowling teams begin autumn season with conference wins
By Heather Fritz Of the Kansan sports staff
The Kansas bowling teams began their season last weekend by competing in two round robin tournaments at Wichita State and Emporia State. The players returned home with the men in third place and the women in second place in the Kansas-Nebraska bowling conference.
The KU women are in second place with a record of 193-101 behind Wichita State, with 218-22. Kansas men are at 151-89, behind the Shockers with 165-75 and Nebraska, 160.5-79.5.
Individual leaders were Wes Wolcot, who bowled a 207 at Wichita State and a 193 at Emporia State, Tim DeMars, who bowled 199 and 184, and Mike Brennan, who scored 189 and 210.
KU coach Mike Fine said Wichita State had the No.1 team in the country. Both the men's and women's team lost to Wichita State in their first meeting. The teams met again Saturday at Emporia State, and the Kansas men beat the Shockers 19-11. The women lost 11-19.
On the women's side, Tracy Clarke bowled 169 and 161, and Jan Weisel bowled 161 and 187.
Instant replay use top on NFL agenda
United Press International
NEW YORK - National Football League executives may expand an experimental use of televised instant replays to settle disputed officials' calls to this season's playoffs and Super Bowl.
The replay plan is on the agenda of the NFL president's fall meetings today and tomorrow in New York.
If passed, an extra official will be posted in the press box to watch
replays of close calls involving possession plays — only questions of catches and fumbles will be reviewed.
If a replay shows that an obvious mistake was made by the officials on the field, it can be quickly overruled. If the replay shows no clear resolution of a controversial play, the original decision stands.
The whole process should take about a half-minute and not interrupt the flow of the game.
