It Seems Incredible, But --
Jayhawks Win League Track Title
Going into the Big Eight Conference track meet last weekend at Manhattan, the KU team was probably one of Bill Easton's poorest in his 16 years as coach here.
The Jayhawkers had an undefeated indoor duel season but finished third in the league meet behind Nebraska and Missouri.
The KU team didn't win a single first place in the Texas Relays—the first time this had happened since 1948.
The Jayhawkers won only the shot-put and the two-mile relay in their own KU Relays.
At the Drake Relays, KU was left without a single goal medal—the first time this happened since 1948.
Although they were undefeated in two outdoor duel meets, the Jayhawkers barely beat Southern Illinois, here and had to rally to top Oklahoma.
But last weekend at Manhattan, the Jayhawkers returned to the form that has characterized Coach Easton's teams of the past, KU won the league championship with 102½ points, only four more than Missouri collected.
KU got $74 \frac{1}{2}$ of its points in field events. Yul Vost, KU's 32-year-old Yugoslavian, led the way with a personal all-time high of $58-6 \frac{1}{2}$ in the shot-put.
FLOYD MANNING cleared 15-0 for first in the pole vault and Glenn Martin went $ 23-8\frac{1}{2} $ to win the broad jump.
On the track the Jayhawkers got only 28 points. Kirk Hagan won the 880-yard run in 1:50.7 and Paul Acevedo took the three-mile in 14:21.0 after KU's Herald Hadley
was disqualified.
Nebraska placed third with 93 points, Colorado 86, Oklahoma State 73, Oklahoma 35, Iowa State $20_{1/2}$ and Kansas State $15$.
"WE ALL DID the job." Coach Easton said in accepting the championship trophy. "That's what we came for."
On most pre-meet form charts KU had been given no higher than fourth place. It would have been somewhat of an upset had KU finished as high as second to some observers.
"Everything had to break right for us," Easton said. "I had an inkling we could do it. We've had good cross country guys so I figured on points in the three-mile, but we got a lot of help in the triple jump and broad jump."
Tennis Team Takes Second While Golfers Finish Fifth
While the KU track team battled toward an upset in the Kansas State University stadium, the Jayhawker tennis team finished second and KU golfers placed fifth in other Big Eight meet action at Manhattan last weekend.
At Columbia, the Jayhawker baseball team took one victory in a three-game series with Missouri as the Tigers clinched the league title. And, here in Memorial Stadium, the Varsity blanked the Alumni, 33-0, in the annual spring football practice finale.
In tennis, KU won one singles and one doubles championship for 12 points and the runnerup position behind perennial champion Oklahoma State. The Cowboys had 16 points, Oklahoma was third with 11, Colorado 8, Nebraska 1, and Iowa State 1.
BARRY MCGRATH of KU defeated Bruce Bowman of Oklahoma, 6-3, 6-2, in the No. 5 singles final. The KU No. 1 doubles team of Del Campbell and Jim Burns upset Bob Folz and Larry Cooley of Oklahoma State. 6-3, 3-6, 6-3.
Oklahoma State also captured the loop golf championship. The Cowboys were low with 849 strokes, Oklahoma 869, Colorado 877, Kansas State 889, Kansas 893, Missouri 900, Nebraska 911, and Iowa State 919.
George Hixon of Oklahoma State won the individual title with a three-under par 67 in the last round. His 209 total topped Jim Colbert of Kansas State who had a 211 total.
John Hanna carded a 215 total for the best KU individual score and finished fourth in the league individual standings.
In the three-mile run, Hadley placed first. Acevedo was second and George Cabrera was fifth — all ran career bests — and Charlie Hayward was sixth. This domination was enough to clinch the title for the Jayhawkers. But Hadley was disqualified for shoving, cutting KU's 20 points to 15 in the event.
