KU tennis team hosts Washburn
Tennis action will pick up again this afternoon as the Jayhawk netmen host Washburn of Topeka.
The KU squad currently sports a won-lost record of three wins and three losses in dual competition.
ACTING TENNIS COACH Jim Burns will probably go with the same five men he has used in the previous six matches this spring. These men are: Bill Terry, Hutchinson senior; Jim Keller, Russell junior; and sophomores Sid Kanter, Prairie Village; and John Towner and Bill Daebaun of Leawood.
Terry and Keller are the only returning lettermen on a tennis squad in which six of eight members are sophomores.
In Big Eight competition the KU racketmen has split in two outings. They defeated Oklahoma State, 4-3, and lost to Oklahoma University, 7-0.
FOR THE FIRST TIME this year, the Big Eight tennis championship will be determined on total matches won in dual meets with conference opponents, plus matches won in the conference tournament scheduled for the University of Oklahoma in May.
Steinhoff is out
KU track coach says Tucker's finger is OK
KU will be without the services of vaulter Bob Steinhoff at the New Mexico triangular meet this Saturday night. But KU regains the services of its shot-putter Gary Tucker.
Tucker injured his middle finger in the Big Eight indoor six weeks ago. Coach Bob Timmons reports that he will participate. But Tucker will be facing the Texas A&M giant, Randy Matson, owner of the world shot put mark of 70- $ \frac{7}{14} $ . Matson came within $ 2\frac{1}{2} $ inches of the discus record with a spin of 213-9. Steinhoff has been hampered with a strained arm muscle and has not been able to use it since the indoor season. Timmons is hopeful that he will be able to vault in the Kansas Relays next week.

Intramural swim gets rules change
A number of changes have been announced concerning the intramural swimming meet to be held Tuesday, April 25 and Thursday, April 27 at 7 p.m. The preliminaries will be held Tuesday and the finals Thursday.
The scoring has been changed from a 6-4-3-2 scale in the individual events to a 7-5-4-3-2-1 scale. The relays change goes from an 8-6-4-2 scale to 14-10-8-6-4-2 scale. This constitutes the scoring for the finals.
The timing events have been changed from eight attempts to 12 attempts and the times will be worth 1 point for the top 12. This does not apply to the relays and diving. Those with the top six times will swim in the finals.
Swimming managers have been requested to start organizing their teams and to begin practices. Competitive swimming is a strenuous activity and requires a great deal of stamina and water work. A life guard on duty will keep a record of the practice sessions. Each team is required to have each participant attend a
minimum of six practice sessions to qualify for the meet.
Divers will have two required dives and three optional dives to perform. A front dive and a back dive will be required. Of the three optional dives, at least one must be from another category such as reverse, inward or twist.
An entrance fee of $2.5 per man is required. All entries must be turned into the intramural office by 4:30 Monday, April 24. No late entries will be accepted.
