Kansas Teams Hit the Road
KU's track, baseball, golf and tennis teams are all in action this weekend away from home. The lone sport occupying the KU scene will be an intra-squad football scrimmage in Memorial Stadium tomorrow afternoon.
KU's track team travels to Carbondale, Ill., to meet the Southern Illinois Salukis tomorrow night. The Salukis, who have gained national recognition in recent Texas and Kansas Relays, have standout performers in Jim Dupree, Bill Cornell and Brian Turner, John Saunders and Ed Houston.
DUPREE IS defending National AAU half-mile champion, having won the title last summer with a 1:48.5 effort. However, he's ex-
Top Horses Vie For Derby Title
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — (UPI) — The 88th running of the $125,000 Kentucky Derby tomorrow shapes up as a tough horse race and yet 18 horses were expected to be named for it before the entry box closed.
"There are four or five of them that can beat my horse," trainer after trainer said with the exception of Casey Hayes, who handles favored Sir Gaylord, and Leroy Jolley, conditioner of second choice Ridan. They were confident but cautious.
HAYES, who has had two previous starters finish second and third, warned "you still have to get the breaks." Jolley echoed these sentiments.
Behind Sir Gaylord, owned by the Meadow Stable of Christopher T. Chenery and Mrs. Moody Jolley Ridan, were five dangerous contenders—Townsend B. Martin's Sunrise County, Fred W. Turner's Sir Ribot, Verne Winchell's Donut King, and Fred W. Hooper's Admiral's Voyage. Next in ranking were Robert Lehman's Prego, El Peco Stable's Decidedly, Crimson King Farm's Crimson Satan, and T. Alie Grissom's Roman Line.
Then came the outsiders—Neil S. McCarthy's Royal Attack, Reverie Knoll Farm's Sharp Count, Golden Triangle Stable's Mister Pitt, F. & B. Farm's Good Fight, Mrs. Joe W. Brown's Green Hornet, and Harold Estopinal and Adrian Arnaud's Touch Bar.
THE 18TH HORSE to be entered is Cicada, a brilliant filly also owned by the Meadow Stable. Without offering any further explanation Hayes said, "I will enter two of them but run only one."
This was interpreted in two ways, with Hayes giving no indication as to which was correct.
Some say he wants to keep Cicada eligible for the Kentucky Derby as long as possible in the event something should happen to Sir Gaylord.

peeting staff competition from Kansas' Bill Thornton who has already turned in a 1:50.8 this season.
The mile promises exceptional competition also with Kansas' Ted Riesinger and Southern's Cornell and Turner, both from England, who will challenge KU's Bill Dotson. Dotson's best time so far this season is a 4:04.3 time at San Jose while Riesinger's best is a 4:07.7. Both Cornell and Turner are expected to turn in sub-4:10 performances.
The KU baseball team put their 9-3 conference record on the line against the Colorado Buffaloes at Boulder. The Jayhawkers presently are tied with the Missouri Tigers for first place in the conference. This is the last road trip for the Jayhawkers who will finish the season against Oklahoma State and Oklahoma here.
COACH FLOYD TEMPEL will throw three left-handers against the Buffaloes in Roger Brock, Monte Stewart and Steve Lunsford. Veteran pitching ace Jerry Waldschmidt has been relegated to relief duties after being shelled by the Iowa State Cyclones Saturday.
The Kansas tennis team follows the Jayhawker track aggregation to Carbondale for a quadrangular match with Cincinnati, Northwestern and Southern Illinois. This is also the last road trip for the tennis team which finishes at home against Oklahoma and Colorado before hosting the Big Eight meet.
Temple continues to change his batting order with only one regular, Hub Bumgardner batting over 300. Today Temple moves Keith Abercrombie from eighth to fifth and will drop centerfielder Tony Leiker to sixth.
KU's golf team meets Nebraska and Kansas State in a triangular at Lawrence Country Club this afternoon before moving over to Manhattan tomorrow where the same three teams meet again.

A freshman woman has gained national bowling honors for the University of Kansas.
Betty Jo Hember, Shawnee Mission freshman, was the top collegiate bowler in the national intercollegiate women's bowling tournament held last Sunday at Phoenix, Ariz. Miss Member placed first in all-events and doubles action and finished second in singles in the Association of Student Unions-sponsored tourney.
Bowling Title To Hember
COMPETING IN a field of 24 women bowlers, two from each of the 12 association districts, Miss Member fired a 1090 pin total in all-events play for a 181 average. In doubles, teamed up with Iowa's Fran Feauer, the other Region Eight representative, Miss Member contributed a 550 series towards the duo's 1072 total.
Miss Member had a 540 series for her second place finish in the singles event.
Miss Member qualified for the national playoff in a meet at Kansas State's student union facility in February.
SUNDAY'S MEET was the first women's face-to-face playoff held. All past national meets have been conducted as postals.
John Member, a sophomore and Miss Member's brother, was formerly the top KU men's bowler. Until he was declared academically ineligible at the mid-year mark, Member held the best average on the varsity bowling team.
Kansas Two-Mile Relay Team Accepts Invitation to California Relays
Kansas' Two-Mile relay team has accepted an invitation to compete in the annual California Relays at Modesto May 26. The Jayhawkers won the Texas and Drake Relals, chasing Missouri to a new Kansas Relays record of 7.24.2, in between. A foursome of Bill Thornton, Tonie Coane, Ted Riesinger and Bill Dotson blazed a 7:27.7 meet record at Austin. With Kirk Hagan moving in to No. 1 in place of Coane, the
Jayhawkers fired an unpressed 7:35.0 to win at Des Moines. The same unit etched a school record of 7:27.4 in missing a Grand Slam against the Tigers here. It had blazed a new American Indoor record of 7:29.2 in the final under-roof meet of the winter, the Manhattan Invitational.
