Temple's crew foils 'Cats after dropping twin-bill
It was "turn about's fair play" day for KU at Manhattan Saturday as the Jayhawks broke loose from their previous afternoon's hitting doldrums to smash Kansas State 12-2 and salvage the finale of the three-game series. K-State had previously blanked the Hawks 2-0 and 10-0 to sweep Friday's doubleheader.
Cole Stimson's lead-off home run for Kansas in the third inning of Saturday's contest tied the score at 1-1 and got the 14-hit parade rolling. Keith Lieppman's 3-run circuit shot in the sixth iced things for good giving KU an insurmountable 8-1 lead.
But it was a nightmarish fifth inning that took the steam out of the Wildeats and set the stage for the Kansas bombardment.
KU's half, Lieppman skied a routine pop-up that was lost in the sun for a double setting up two runs. Then in the bottom of the frame, K-State, trailing 5-1, loaded the bases with none out
but failed to come up with a run.
Southpaw Rich Slicker won his third of the season for Kansas while Steve Snyder took the loss for State.
In Friday's game, 'Cat hurlers Nick Horner and Steve Wood proved overpowering as they stopped KU on two and four hits respectively in their seven-inning shutout stints. Dave Robisch (now 1-1 for the year) stymied KSU on four safeties in the opener but could not shackle freshman phenom Charlie Clark who knocked in both State runs.
The nightcap saw .167 hitter Bob Gartner crack a grand-slam clout to highlight an 8-run second inning outburst and hand KU righthander Randy Stroup his third loss against one victory.
Kansas, 2-4 in Big Eight play and 6-6 overall, now returns to Quigley Field Friday for its first home stand of the season, a three game set against Nebraska.

KU Rugby team suffers loss No.1
With two members from the starting team sidelined with injuries and two others serving guard duty, the KU Rugby team suffered its first loss of the season Saturday, dropping a 12-9 decision to a tough Missouri team.
Missing were the services of Terry Bates, who has been out of the last two games with a leg injury, and Phil Connor, who during the contest sustained a knee injury, which team captain Gary Patzkowsky says could keep him out of the action for several weeks.
Leading the KU attack was kicking specialist, Jay Clancy. In the first period Clancy gave the Jayhawks a 3-0 lead with a field goal, but before the half the Tigers came roaring back to go ahead 6-3. Then Clancy kicked

another field goal to even the score at intermission at 6-6.
In the second half the absence of the KU regulars proved to be more of an advantage to the Tigers as they ran up six points to counter KU's three, and walked away with heir third victory in four games.
The loss put KU's record at 2-1, but didn't move the Jayhawks out of first place in the Heart of America league as they remain in a tie for the top spot with Rockhurst College.
In the B game the Hawks fared better shutting out MU 6-0, on both a strong offensive and defensive showing. Early in the contest the second stringers jumped into the lead and from then on dominated play to remain undefeated for the season.
Next on the slate for the Jayhawks are two away games to be contested at Swope Park in Kansas City, Mo.
