Ryun's leg is checked
KU's world record miler Jim Ryun is scheduled to return to Topeka today for a second examination of the leg he injured Tuesday by orthopedic specialist Dr. G. Bernard Joyce.
Dr. Joyce had told Ryun to stay on crutches for two days after he first examined him Wednesday.
The injury has been diagnosed as a pulled hamstring muscle in the left leg. Ryun sustained the injury while doing speed work on the Memorial Stadium track Tuesday afternoon. He had run a series of ten 440's and was injured during the second of a series of 110-yard sprints.
"Dr. Joyce says the injury may not be bad at all," Ryun said. "He said it was a good thing I got ice and treatment on it right away. It may have saved a lot of problems. I may be able to run a little this weekend or it may be next week before I can return to work-outs."
The junior track star will definitely miss the dual meet with UCLA Saturday in Los Angeles but is expected to be ready to go in the Texas Relays April 5 and 6 in Austin. Tex. He has been slated to run the open mile and anchor the KU distance medley relay team in that meet.
Baseball team plays 2 Saturday
The Kansas baseball team will play Kansas State Teachers College at Emporia (KSTC) in a pair of nine-inning games beginning at 1 p.m. Saturday at Quigley Field just south of Allen Field House.
The doubleheader will mark KU's first appearance at home of the 1968 baseball season. The games were scheduled this week to fill an open date the Jayhawks had after their trip to the Riverside National Collegiate Baseball Tournament in Riverside, Calif., last week. The Jayhawks now stand 1-6 for the season after finishing last in the tourney.
KSTC tuned up for the Kansas games by sweeping a doubleheader from Oral Roberts University, 5-1 and 5-3, Wednesday.

Mac Duckworth, basketball coach at Washington, resigned at the end of the past season.
Winter's teams won seven conference championships during the coach's 15 years at KSU, and had only one losing season, when the Wildcats had a 12-13 record and finished 6th in the Big Eight in 1965.
Kansas State won the Big Eight conference title this season, with a conference record of 11-3, and an overall mark of 19-9. The Wildcats were eliminated in the NCAA regional championships
Teams under Winter at KSU won 262 games and lost 117. The Wildcats were NCAA Midwest champions in 1958 and 1964, and were named the No.1 team in the nation by United Press International in 1959.

Phoenix gets 1st choice in NBA expansion
NEW YORK—(UPI)—Phoenix won a coin toss from Milwaukee Thursday and will choose first in the National Basketball Association expansion draft May 6.
cation expansion may be.
The two new franchises will select a maximum of 18 players from the existing 12 NBA teams.
No other sedan can make this statement.
"One trunk to a car" has been sedan dogma ever since sedans began.
(And why not? isn't it obvious that a car can't have two trunks? After all, how can you add a trunk without subtracting an engine?)
Well, you know how we worry about dogma.
So our new VW Fastback Sedan not only has two good-sized trunks, but—since even a Volkswagen can't get along without an engine—an engine.
(What we did was to make the engine only 16 inches high and tuck it underneath the rear trunk.)
Gas mileage: up to 27 mpg. The price: $2292.00
Of course, while our Fastback may be the first two-truned sedan, it's still a Volkswagen.
So it can make a couple of more statements most other sedans can't make.
But best of all, with this car what you gain in function you don't lose in style. Shut both trunks and you have a dashing little fastback.
Believers in the "one trunk to a car" dogma can call us heretics.
But at least we're good-looking heretics.
