KU golfers win 4
The KU golf team won four matches and tied a fifth of six matches in a pair of quadrangular meets this weekend at Iowa State and Nebraska.
KU's Bill Hess tied Iowa State's John Wilfong for medalist honors with a 75 as the Jayhawks defeated Iowa State, $8_{1/2}-6_{1/2}$; downed Drake, 12-3, and tied Kansas State, $7_{1/2}-7_{1/2}$ at Ames, Iowa, Friday. Charles Peffer led the way for the Jayhawks Saturday with a 73 at Lincoln as KU topped Drake
$12\frac{1}{2} - 2\frac{1}{2}$ and K-State 11-4. Kansas was edged by Nebraska 8-7.
Other KU scores in Friday's meet were John Rogers 79, Mike Krone 80, Jack Clevenger 82 and Peffer 84. Hess turned in a 75 on Saturday. Clevenger finished with a 77. Rogers followed with 78 and Krone carded a 79. Nebraska's Charlie Borner took medalist honors Saturday with a 72.
The meets were the last for the Jayhawk golfers until the Big Eight conference meet in Boulder, Colo., May 17-18.
WIBW will televise Saturday scrimmage
With television cameras beaming action around the state, Kansas winds up spring football practice Saturday with an intra-squad game at Memorial Stadium matching the white-clad offensive forces against the blue-shirted defense.
The color telecast will be originated by WIBW-TV of Topeka and also will be shown live by KAYS of Hays and KLOE of Goodland starting at 1:30 p.m.
Jayhawk coach Pepper Rodgers will join WIBW's Max Falkenstein in the TV booth to add his comments to the play-by-play account as the game progresses.
The game, to be divided into three 20-minute periods, will be scored under Rodgers' special system that gives points to the offense for advancing the ball and to the defense for stopping drives. In addition, the defense receives bonus points for intercepting passes and recovering fumbles.
Rodgers has staged three lengthy squad games during the first three weeks of spring drills and each time the score has been close. One wound up in a 30-30 tie and the offense won the other two matches by margins of 35-27 and 33-32.
Quarterback Bobby Douglass, Big Eight back of the year last fall when he led the conference in total offense, has been impressive in spring drills. In the three scrimmages he has completed 31 of 53 passes for 501 vards.
Number two quarterback Jim Ettinger has been successful with 12 of 24 passes for 140 yards.
Favorite receivers of the two have been split end George McGowan, junior college transfer from Glendale, Calif., and tight end John Mosier, who broke two Kansas receiving records as a sophomore last fall.
McGowan has caught 20 passes for 382 yards and Mosier has grabbed 13 for 153 yards.
Don Shanklin, returned to tailback this spring after playing as a wide receiver last fall, and upcoming sophomore Don Autry share duties at tailback while holdover Mike Reeves and rookie Rich Rucker are running at fullback.
Kansas' backfield crew was thinned by recent withdrawals of lettermen Thermus Butler and Spencer Kissel.
Two of last fall's starting backs, tailback Junior Riggins and wingback John Jackson, were excused from spring drills to participate in other sports. Riggins is the regular centerfielder with the baseball team and Jackson is a member of Jayhawk sprint squads that have set school records in the 440 and 880 relays.
The Jayhawks have gotten strong defensive play this spring from their front five, with two-year regular John Zook at right end and 230-pound middle guard Emery Hicks particularly impressive.
Vernon Vanoy, last year's starter, and Bruce Peterson, who missed 1967 with a fractured leg, are sharing duties at the end opposite Zook. The number one defensive tackles are holdover regular Orville Turgeon and two-time letterman Bill Greene.
Three Big 8 bests set
Three Big Eight season bests were established in track action among Big Eight schools Saturday. Clifton Forbes of Nebraska ran a 20.9 in the 220 to establish a new mark. Jim Ryun ran an 8:50.2 two-mile and Hal Oswalt of Oklahoma State long jumped 25-15% in other best performances.
Oklahoma won two-thirds of a triple tennis dual on the courts west of Allen Field House Saturday. Kansas won the third part and Missouri went home empty handed.
Oklahoma and Kansas win in tennis
The OU netters shut out Missouri 7-0 and swept past Kansas 6-1. Kansas won the final dual by beating Missouri 5-2.
The Jayhawk tennis men continue play today when they take on Kansas State Teachers College of Emporia at 2:30 p.m. on the courts west of the Field House. This will be the last time the KU squad faces nonconference opposition this season.
Kansas loses two
Kansas, in the cellar of the Big Eight conference baseball race after dropping two of three games to league-leading Oklahoma State at Stillwater, Okla., this past weekend, takes on Missouri in a doubleheader Friday and a single game Saturday.
The games will begin at 1:30 p.m. both days on Quigley Field south of Allen Field House.
KU and OSU split Friday's games, then O-State crushed Kansas 14-4 in Saturday's single game. The victory left the Cowboys 9-3 in league play while KU holds down the other end of the standings with a 3-9 record. MU is 7-7.
OSU led 3-2 in the bottom of the third inning Saturday and then erupted for seven runs to

put things on ice and lead the way to the 10 run victory. The Cowboys got 11 hits, nine of them singles and 16 walks en route to the victory.
