Jayhawk Athletes Mix Good and Bad
KU athletes got a sample of good and bad over the weekend, meeting with success on two fronts while suffering defeat on another.
In a doubleheader with Oklahoma Friday, Coach Floyd Temple's varsity baseball team lost their chances for a first place finish in the Big Eight Conference by splitting with the Sooners. The loss was made more bitter for the Jayhawks by the knowledge that Steve Renko, star pitcher and outfielder, will be out of action for the remainder of the season with a ruptured blood vessel in his leg. The leg was injured last week in a series with Iowa State but had not started to trouble Renko until this weekend. Renko was hospitalized with the injury Thursday night.
THE SOONERS then proceeded to finish the job of slamming the league's door in the Jayhawks faces as they stomped KU 14-3 in a singleton Saturday.
The 1-2 series left the Jayhawks
10-5 in conference games behind the
undefeated league-leading Tigers of Missouri.
Saturday's baseball game was, however only the beginning of an all-sports day for the Jayhawks. In two others sports-football and track-KU had better luck.
IN WINDING up its Spring drills, the Jayhawk football team played an intrasquad game which Coach Jack Mitchell termed "the finest Spring practice we've ever had."
As had been expected, Mitchell's yearling crop of linemen—big linemen—showed up well in the game.
The Jayhawk White team downed the Blue team 9-6 in a game which turned out to be a defensive battle. And no wonder. The two lines, which average 216 and 213 pounds respectively, were a far cry from the light lines which have characterized KU football for the past several years.
MITCHELL SAID that while he was, in general, pleased with his
team's performance, he was uneasy about its showing in the ball carrying and kicking departments.
"I was very concerned" Mitchell said, "about the fumbles."
The Jayhawks did, as a matter of fact fumble the ball eight times. Six of the bobbles came from the Blue team.
Following the football scrimmage, Coach Bill Easton's trackmen took the field and defeated Oklahoma 91-54 in the season's wrapup of dual meets.
FLOYD MANNING, the Jayhawks' 16-foot pole vaulter, dropped a foot off of last week achievement as he went 15-0. One week before, he smashed the Big Eight record by clearing 16-13⁄4 in a meet with Southern Illinois at Carbondale. Manning could do no better than second this week as he was beaten by the Sooners' Jim Farrell.
Oklahoma's star anchorman Anthony Watson was idle this week due to an injury and his absence was felt by the Sooners.

SAYS.
"Group, do you realize everytime you put your best foot forward there's a leg attached to it? And is that leg covered with some old gunny sack cloth? Dress up, gov! Good looks are an asset."
We agree, Jerry, good looks are an asset. And when good looking slacks can be bought for $4.50 to $8.95, there are hardly any reasons left for not being sharp. A-1 slacks are made in 7 styles and all the latest fabrics. Ask for A-1's by name at your favorite store or campus shop.

1. I've come across a fascinating fact about the population.
Do tell.
2. There are more females than males in the U.S.A.
Where are they all hiding?
3. If you really want to find out what's going on with the population you should go see The Demograph.
The who?
4. The Demograph—it's this gigantic population counter that Equitable put up at the World's Fair.
5. It gives you the up-to-the minute story of the population explosion.
It tells you where the girls are?
I've noticed more people around lately.
6. Tells you how many babies are being born, how fast the population is growing. Stuff like that.
Can it explain how come, if there are more females than males, I have so much trouble meeting them?
