Coach predicts volleyball success
By KELLY SCOTT
Sports Writer
Jack Igsur strode onto the court and took the volleyball that his assistant coach had been serving casually to Debbie Launder-milk during volleyball practice yesterday.
Using his closed fist, Iagur hammered the ball at Ballardmilk. She visibly tensed for the ball, stiffened both arms in front of her, and picked up over lagur's head and into the next court.
Isquir shagged the ball, and fired at Laudermilk again. He recessed the routine

THE INCIDENT INJECTED intensity into the daily practice. That intensity characterizes Igar's coaching style and his role in the status of volleyball in today's sports world.
until there was marked improvement in the relationship with which Laudernallis returned the lump.
"Coaching volleyball at the University of Kansas comes first with me, before my private life, my law practice, before any other team I coach," Isgur said.
"We can run a minimum of 35 different approaches on offense," he said.
KU uses a multiple offense that Isgar used combined the European power game and the American power game.
Isgur has also introduced "complete position ball," a defensive technique that assigns each player to an exact place on the court at all times.
"WE SHIFT BETWEEN two basic formations, depending upon the opposition," Iagur said. "We're primarily a zone operation, but we employ some person-on-blocking."
"This isn't recreational volleyball," he said.

The team has more individual talent than the last year's regional championship team, lager.
Debbie Laudermilk was elected captain of the team. Isgur said he would take Laudermilk, Cindy Dean, Terry Flynn, Janet Brown, Beth Boozer, Laura Frost, Leslie Stockard, Rhonda English, and Debbie Kuh to Emporia.

Baseball world mourns Stengel

Isgur makes it clear that his passion for volleyball is directed toward the promotion of the sport, not toward his personal advancement. Isgur, a university of Missouri law school graduate, said he had no desire to go any further in coaching.
"There will never be another one like

Although volleyball was invented in the United States, this country can't compete with other countries in world competition, Isgur said.
Veteran rector Maury Allen wrote, "He is gone and I am supposed to cry, but I laugh. Every time I saw the man, everytime I heard his voice, everytime his name was mentioned, the creases of my hands are still way and a smile would come to my face."
Rivalry between intercollegiate volleyball and the United States Volley Ball Association (USVB) has divided the sport in this country, Insar said.
GENDLADE, Calif. - Baseball's No. 1 ambassador—the crazy-talking, fun-loving man everyone knew as Casey—leaves a golden record of success and stories that the game will treasure as it survives. The game is countless memories to an admiring wind.
The man is Charles Dillon Stengel,
besame l'inpressible Casey,死 at 26.
"He was wonderful," said Joe DIMaggio, the Yankee Clipper who played on the first three World Series winners Casey managed.
"The rise of women's sports threatens them as much as it does the men," he said. "They can't keep up. They're not used to training athletes."
Last year Igur went to a KAIAW meeting in Salina to try to change some rules he disliked.
had," had, DiMaggio. "He understood his players. I loved playing under him."
"...he was a sound baseball man," said California Angels President Red Patterson, who worked for the Yankees when Stengel hit him. "He had to wait until he finished a sentence."
Stengel, who was 85 July 30, died late
monday after a long illness. He was
incidentally billed for his work until the
world's end.
TWO NATIONAL BODIES sponsoring volleyball in this country hinder the growth of a unified program that could produce an even greater number of players. This problem also hurts KU, lasur said.
image of women's athletics to KAIAW leaders was "tea and crumplets."
Stengel often spoke without interjecting punctuation, using a mix of bad grammar and good insights—when you could understand him.
KU misses both the extra playing time and the opportunity to play against the strongest competition, Isgur said. He said the short season KU must play under KIAAW rules allow him to develop as complex defensive plays as he'd like.
The Kansas branch of the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women
(AKAIW) limits the volleyball season, he said. Under AKAIW rules, KU can begin its season in October, but must conclude play during a tournament in late November, Insur气 said.
"I have to adjust my coaching to the one that I'm going to offer some offenses that require perfect time to develop, isn't enough time to develop them," he said. Kanaas is one of few states that has this ability.
Isgur has scheduled some games with USVBA for the KU team. Approximately 15 USVBA teams will come to Lawrence Nov. 8, and another group of 10 USVBA teams is scheduled for Nov. 13.
HE SAID HE THOUGHT the prevalent
A rule prohibiting coaching during games was abolished, but the rule limiting the length of the volleyball season remains intact.

The calculations you face require no less.
Today, even so-called "non-technical" courses (psych, soc, bus ad, to name 3) require a variety of technical calculations—complicated calculations that become a whole lot easier when you have a powerful pocket calculator.
Not surprisingly, there are quite a few such calculators around, but ours stand apart, and ahead. We started it all when we introduced the world's first scientific pocket calculator back in 1972, and we've shown the way ever since.
The calculators you see here are our newest, the first of our second generation. Both offer your technology you probably won't find in competitive calculators for some time to come, if ever
Our HP-21 performs all arithmetic, log and trig calculations, including rectangular/polar conversions and common antilog evaluations.
It's display is fully formatted, you can choose between fixed decimal and scientific notation.
Our HP-25 does all that—and much, much more. It's programmable, which means it can solve automatically the countless repetitive problems every science and engineering student faces.
With an HP-25, you enter the keystrokes necessary to solve the problem only once. Thereafter, you just enter the variables and press the Run/Stop key for an almost instant answer accurate to 10 digits.
Before you invest in a lesser machine, by all means do two things: ask your instructors about the calculations their courses require; and see for yourself how effortlessly our calculators handle them.
Both the HP-21 and HP-25 are almost certainly on display at your bookstore. If not, call us, toll-free, at 800-538-7922 (in Calif. 800-662-9862) for the name of an HP dealer near you.
