The Colorado Buffaloes are becoming a menace to the Kansas Jayhawkers in the Big Eight conference.
The Buffaloes did it again over the weekend when they won a three-game series from the KU baseball team knocking the Jay-hawkers out of first place into third place.
THIS INCONSIDERATION is not new for the Buffaloes. Last fall KU sent its prized football team, everybody's pre-season choice for the conference championship, to Boulder and the Buffaloes, like last week-end, derailed the Jayhawkers' championship bid.
Coach Floyd Temple's baseball team can salvage a share of the Big Eight conference championship, but luck's going to have to side with the Jayhawkers all the way.
FIRST. THE JAYHAWKERS must win all three games against Oklahoma State this Friday and Saturday at Quigley Field.
The Buffaloes even spotted Kansas three touchdowns in the first three quarters before coming alive in the fourth quarter to defeat the Javahawks 20-19.
Second, Missouri could cooperate and lose at least one game to the Kansas State Wildcats this weekend.
Third, Oklahoma State could win two games in its three-game series with the Tigers, May 18-19.
THIS WOULD leave the Jayhawkers, the Tigers and the Cowboys all with six losses and to each a one-third share of the league title
A FEW RANDOM COMMENTS:
Track coach Bill Easton says that his Jayhawkers will get beat at Oklahoma, Saturday. The Sooners are the defending Big Eight outdoor champions. The Big Eight conference meet be close May 18-19 is going to be close. The top teams are Oklahoma, Nebraska and Kansas. The Cornhuskus gave the Jayhawkers a real battle for the indoor title before KU won by 11/12 of a point.
THE MIDDLE DISTANCE races at the outdoor meet are going to be packed with top performers. At the indoor meet there are the 600 yard dash and the 1,000 yard run, but in the outdoor meet you have to find places for these runners in the 440 and 880 yard runs.
Run-aways are developing in the American and the National leagues which could hurt baseball attendance this year. The Yankees are atop the American League by $1\frac{1}{2}$ games. New York's record stands 14-7 and the Cleveland Indians is the closest team with a 12-8 record.
The San Francisco Giants hold a three-game edge in the National League with a 20-6 record.

BALTIMORE — (UPI) — The Kansas City Athletics open an 18-game road trip tonight against the Baltimore Orioles.
NOW!
Ed Rakow (3-1) is scheduled to pitch for Kansas City, while Milt Pappas (2-1) is to be the Baltimore hurler.
Pat Friday, Kansas City Athletics general manager, said that pitcher Bill Kunkel has been optioned and outfielder Gene Stephens placed on the disabled list.
NEITHER TEAM saw action yesterday, as all American League clubs were idle.
The move brought the A's roster to one under the May 10 cut-down limit, which led to the possibility Kansas City may be in the market for a utility infielder or a bonus player.
Hub Bumgardner, Kansas second baseman, leads the Big Eight in hitting with a .461 average through games of April 28.
Stephens' knee was operated on during the winter months and it was again placed in a cast last week after the joint failed to respond, Friday said. He injured the knee last season. Appearing in five games as a pinch hitter, Stephens was hitless.
Bumgardner Leads Hitting
KUNKEL, sent to Portland of the Pacific Coast League, appeared in three games, pitched 2 2/3 innings, gave up two runs, four hits, three walks and he struck out three. His earned run average was 6.75 and he was not involved in a decision.
In 12 games, the Wright Junior College transfer has 18 hits in 39 times at bat, Smith of Nebraska is second with a .447 average and KU's Dick Fanning is third with a .416 average.
FANNING IS second in runs-batted-in with 15. He trails Jim Sevcik of Missouri with 18.
Bumgardner and Fanning are the only two KU players to make the Big Eight conference's list of leading hitters and pitchers.
Colorado footballer Gale Weidner is tied with Missouri's Sevcik for home runs with three.
Ferguson of Oklahoma State and Jenkins of Missouri lead the league's pitchers with 3-0 records. Larry Bohannon of Missouri is the league's strikeout artist with 34. Teammate Jenkins is second with 27.
Old N.L. Played Split Season
BOSTON — (UPI) — The National League played a split season in 1892. Boston won the first half and Cleveland the second. Boston then won the playoff in 5 straight games.

Stuth's all-events score, a 1974 pin total, broke the previous tournament record of 1958 pins set in 1956. In singles play Stuth fired a 677 series.
With semester examinations a little more than two weeks away, spring intramural sports activity is nearing completion, marking the end of intramural action for the 1961-62 school year.
By Roy Miller
Rybolt placed first in the singles division with a 680 series. Besides Stuth's 677 series, Leslie Mueller, Belleville freshman, had a 644 and Jim Pusateri, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, posted a 625 series.
The Intramural Scene
The spring semester bowling playoffs will be held at the Jay Bowl Saturday and Sunday. Teams competing in the tourney include the various league champions and three teams chosen from each league on the basis of team average.
Delta Chi No. 1 copped the first place team title with a 3054 effort. Theta Chi No. 1 finished in second place with 2977 pins and the Mix-ups were in third place with a 2961 posting.
CHARLES STUTH, Lawrence graduate student, was the top individual in the men's campus bowling tournament held last week. Stuth placed first in all-events and second in singles.
DAVE RYBOLT, Ottawa sophomore, had a 1914 all-events total and Jerry Campbell, Livonia, Mich., junior, posted a 1897 for third in that category.
Bill Woodburn, Pleasanton senior, and Bob Hicks, Kansas City, Mo., freshman, teamed up to win the doubles crown. The Woodburn-Hicks duo posted a 1356 total.
Phi Gamma Delta's horseshoes entry meets the winner of the Alpha Tau Omega vs. Templein contest in that sport.
DICK GRONER, Overland Park freshman, and Rybolt had a 1249 score and the Nick Paris, Leawood sophomore, and David Walstrom.
The Harriers, managed by John Hansan, Lawrence senior, captured the handball championship.
The Independents vs. Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Harriers vs. Beta Theta Pi matches comprise semifinal action in badminton.
THE INTRAMURAL swimming meet opens Wednesday with preliminaries beginning at 4:15. Finals and diving competition will be held Thursday beginning at 4:15.
Independent "B" — Jerks, Geographers, Geology (3-0) and Newman Club (3-0).
Independent "A" — Harriers and Chemistry.
Outdoor sports activity has been aided considerably with few post-ponements due to weather, a different situation from past springs when bad weather has caused frequent postponements.
The Lawrence Country Club will be the site of the intramural golf tournament. The tourney begins at 7 a.m. Saturday.
TENNIS ACTION enters the second round May 14 when Phi Psi No. 1 meets the winner of the Beta Theta Pi vs. Phi Delta Theta first round contest and Sigma Chi meets the winner of the Shannon's vs. Stephenson battle. The first round matches are slated for today.
Lawrence senior, pair compiled a 1227 score.
Center Proves Battle-Ground
Fraternity "B" Division — Kappa Sigma, Beta Theta Pi and Alpha Kappa Lambda.
The following intramural softball teams have compiled perfect records after two games:
Fraternity "A" Division — Beta Theta Pi, Kappa Sigma, Phi Gamma Delta, Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Chi.
The most furious battle-ground for a starting job in Kansas' 1962 football line this spring is at center.
Until Larry Fairchild was kayoey with a knee injury early in drills, this was a three-sided affair. The hefty Salina sophomore had improved enough to crowd holdover veterans Kent Converse and Pete Quatrochi—who lettered at No. 2 and 3, respectively, last autumn behind St凯 Staab.
Converse has been hampered by a lame knee too, and right now must be rated behind Quatrochi if Coach Jack Mitchell had to name a starting lineup tomorrow.
Quatrochio, a sturdy 188-pounder out of Kansas City, Mo., has improved perhaps as much as any lineman in camp. "This has come from experience as much as anything," line coach Don Fambrough comments. "He's more sure of himself and not afraid of making mistakes. He's more reckless and, of course, that's what we want."

Quatrochi also is the best snapper on the long whip to the punter.

At 33, Vince Edwards has hit the jackpot in the role of Ben Casey. "Big deal," he snarls, "I'm an eleven-year overnight sensation." In this week's Post, you'll learn why Edwards is sore at Hollywood. How he struggled for years as a lifeguard, a chorus boy and a motorcycle racer. And why he says: "In this business, they don't want actors."
