Track, Gym Teams Busy As Big Weekend Arrives
This weekend will be a relatively quiet one for most KU athletic squads. It will be anything but quiet, however for members of the track and gymnastics teams.
Coach Bill Easton's indoor trackmen will face what Easton has termed the toughest group of teams in conference history in the Big Eight indoor championship meet tonight and tomorrow night in Kansas City.
Coach Easton has predicted that the Missouri Tigers will be the team to beat in the competition. He said, however, that KU has an excellent chance of upsetting Mizzou's plans.
COACH EASTON SAID if every man on the KU squad performed to the very best of his ability, the Jayhawks would bring home the conference championship.
The Jayhawks go into the meet in good physical condition, Coach Easton said.
"Aside from a few little colds," Easton said, "every member of the team is in his very best condition. I believe the boys will put on their most outstanding performance show of the season in Kansas City."
Coach Easton, whose teams have won the conference championship 10 times in the last 12 years, emphasized the competition which will be facing the Jayhawks in Kansas City.
"The competition will be terrific." Coach Easton said. "I mean these teams are going to be out for blood. Anyone who misses this meet will regret it. There are going to be records set, there is going to be action and there is going to be good, tough competition," Coach Easton said.
Reamon said he plans to take his team to Norman Monday for practice sessions in the Oklahoma pool in preparation for the Big Eight meet which will be Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
The Jayhawk basketball squad will be idle this weekend, but plays Colorado Monday night in Allen Field House.
The KU wrestling team, also inactive over the weekend, meets Omaha University Tuesday here.

DINE-A-MITE
A hard-playing, determined Sigma Alpha Epsilon intramural basketball team defeated the JRP Jocks 43-39 to win its second consecutive Hill "A" championship last night.
SAE jumped off to an early lead in the contest, but JRP forged ahead at the end of the first quarter, 8-7
JRP increased its lead to six points midway through the second quarter of play, but the SAE's put on a scoring exhibition at the free throw line and by the end of the first half, cut the Jocks' lead to 19-18. The free throw situations came about when three technical fouls were called on JRP in the closing seconds of the half.
THE TIDE TURNED completely in the third period. SAE outscored JRP, 16-6, to take a 34-25 lead. The Jocks were never ahead in the contest after the second half got underway.
JRP fought to within one point of the SAE's with 50 seconds remaining in the game and managed to gain control of the ball. It appeared that the Jocks might be going to pull the game out in the final seconds.
SAE, however, managed to grab the ball and draw a foul on the Jocks. Free throws then kept the game out of reach of the JRP team.
After the game, Williams, a former freshman and varsity basketball player, said he and his teammates found the victory very satisfying.
"WE FOUND WINNING a lot more satisfying this year than it was last year," Williams said. "Last year we had a team composed largely of older guys and we just kind of breezed through the competition.
"This year we lost a number of the members of our team and we had to replace them. We had to

Williams said the team practiced at every opportunity in preparation for the victory.
"We were allowed two practices during the week and two on the
