KU duffers to Colorado
It will be "Pike's Peak or Bust" for the KU golf team this weekend as the Jayhawk linkers travel to Colorado Springs for the Pike's Peak Invitational golf tournament.
The three-day tourney will begin tomorrow, weather permitting, and finish Saturday.
KU will enter the tourney fresh from a 10-5 victory over Iowa State. Bill Southern fired a two-over-par 73 and Bill Hess followed, one stroke behind, to pave the way to the Jayhawk triumph.

TENNIS: Kappa Sigma and Delta Upsilon "A" will play for the right to meet the Delta Upsilon "C" team and the winner of the Law-Delta Tau Delta game for the tennis division championship.
Hawks need victories to avoid Big 8 cellar
The erratic KU baseball squad needs to capture two of three games from cellar-dwelling Nebraska this weekend to avoid dropping into last place in the Big Eight race.
The Hawks, carrying a 5-9 record, will meet the Cornhuskers in a three game series on Quigley Field. NU shows a 4-8 standing.
That sixth-place position for KU is considerably better than the in 1966. And with consistent play through the end of the season KU could jump into fifth place.
The Hawks appeared ready to make the move after salvaging the last game against Missouri and sweeping three straight from Colorado. But last weekend Iowa State's team blew away any chances the Jayhawks had of finishing in the first division as the Cyclones took all three games.
The series with NU will be highlighted by a possible dual between the conference's stingiest pitcher,NU'S Al Furby with a 0.88 earned run average,and the seventh least scored upon, KU's Roger Jackson who owns a 1.97 ERA.
Hurlers should dominate the entire series as NU and KU rank third and fourth in team pitching and seventh and eighth in team batting.
The only hitter for either squad listed among the Big Eight's top 15 is NU's Bob Churchich, the starting quarterback in football, whose average is .323.
KU's leading batsman is centerfielder Tom Shawver at 269. He will be platooned with Bob Skahan after recently returning to action following a foot infection.
