Kansas faces MU
Pitcher Randy Strop and batterymate Cole Stimson, both ranking among the Big Eight's statistical leaders, will lead Kansas' baseball team into a three-game series with Missouri today and Saturday at Quigley Field.
After today's doubleheader starting at 1:30 p.m., the teams will close the series with a single game Saturday at 11:30 a.m.
Stimson, off to a slow start in the first few games, has swung a hot bat in conference games and is hitting 341 with 14 hits in 41 trips. In his last seven games the stocky Jayhawk junior has collected 12 hits in 26 appearances.
Strup, a sinkerball righthander, pitched a six-hit victory over league leading Oklahoma State
the past weekend and has a 2.57 earned run average against conference teams. In 28 innings he has allowed eight earned runs, walked 10 and struck out 13.
Coach Floyd Temple said Bill Maddux and Richard Slicker will hurl the other games against the fourth place Tigers. Missouri is 7-7 in the conference and 9-12 for the season. Kansas, tied for seventh place with Colorado at 3-9, is 5-16 overall.
Here is Kansas' probable starting lineup for the Missouri series: Tom Shawver, first base; Lynn Snelgrove, second base; Bob Evilsizer, shortstop; John Nelson, third base; Gary Ascanio, left field; Junior Riggins, center field; Randy Cordill, right field; and Stimson, catcher.

DETROIT—(UPI)—Bill Buntin, former All-American center who led the University of Michigan from the bottom to the top of the Big Ten standings, collapsed and died of an apparent heart attack following a basketball game Thursday. He was 26.
Former All-American dies
Buntin, a three-time Big Ten center and twice named to the All-American team, went outside for a breath of fresh air after playing in a basketball game at Detroit Cathedral High School.
He returned complaining of
shortness of breath and was rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Buntin, who set Michigan scoring records which lasted only until Cazzie Russell shattered them the following season, was the No. 1 draft choice of the Detroit Pistons upon his graduation in 1965.
He took Michigan from eighth place the year before he was eligible to a tie for fourth during his sophomore season. With Russell added, the Wolverines then ripped off three conference crowns.
