The Jayhawkers have moved slowly up in the standings following losing a three-game opening series against the Oklahoma Sooners which lead the Big Eight with a 9-0 record. The Jayhawkers have swept two out of three from Nebraska and won all three games against Kansas State last weekend.
In another important series, the Oklahoma Sooners host Colorado at Norman. The Buffalooes, which were tied with the Sooners with a 6-0 record going into last weekend's action, lost three games to Missouri and dropped to third place. The Tigers are not expected to be pressed against Kansas State today and tomorrow.

Waldschmidt leads KU in the wonloss department and earned run averages. The Topeka senior owns a 3-1 record and a 1.08 earned run average. He has struck out 27 and has only allowed five walks in 32 1/3 innings.
Monte Stewart has moved up into the number three position to replace Roger Brock. Stewart has pitched only five innings this season but has picked up two decisions. He has a 2-0 won-lost mark.

Bowling Action Begins Monday
The big event of the university men's bowling season, The Campus Tournament, will begin Monday and run through May 5, according to Terrel Hays, Shawnee senior, secretary of the campus bowling leagues.
Any student who is presently bowling on any campus team is eligible to enter the handicap tournament which will be held in the Kansas Union Jaybowl.
Handicaps will be based on three-fourths the difference between the bowlers' league average and 200. Contestants must have rolled at least twelve games in a league at the Jaybowl to qualify for any event in the tournament.
All teams will bowl at their regular league time during the tourney, but individuals desiring to bowl in the other events must report to the Jaybow desk to arrange desired bowling times.
Entry fees are $1.25 per person,
per event. An additional $0.25 is
charged for the all-events listing.
Trophies will be awarded to the top three places in the three categories and in the all-events.
In a down-to-the-wire finish against Missouri, the Jayhawkers bettered the existing Drake record which was set two years ago by another outstanding Jayhawker quartet of Kirk Hagan, Gordon Davis, Bill Thornton and Bill Dotson. The Jayhawkers winning time was 1:28.4 at the Kansas Relays.
THE MISSOURI TIGERS will be seeking revenge as Coach Tom Botts will lead his two-mile team once more. Other prominent two-mile aggregations include Ohio, which won the Texas Relays, Oregon State and Stanford.
The KU track delegation's hopes in the 54th annual Drake Relays today and tomorrow ride on an unheralded two-mile relay team which outclassed the University field at the Kansas Relays last week.
Ohio owns a 7:30.8 time. Oregon State ran 7:38.1 indoors and Stanford has turned 7:37.9 this spring but is capable of much better.
The anchor lap of this relay will match four sub 1:50 half-mile runners in KU's Hagan, Ohio's Darnell Mitchell, defending Big Eight half-mile champion Greg Pelster of Missouri, Oregon State's Morgan Groth and Stanford's Harry McCalla, a miler who has run 4:04.2 this year.

HAGAN RAN 1:49.2 in his anchor half-mile at the Kansas Relays. Pelster ran 1:48.7 in the Arkansas Relays. Mitchell owns a 1:49.3 which placed him fourth in the NCAA last year and Groth has run 1:49.7.
Much of the Jayhawkers' hopes will be riding on Bill Stoddart, normally a quarter-miler, who ran his first competitive half-mile last

week in 1:53.5. KU Coach Bill Easton believes the senior is capable of dipping to 1:50.
The Jayhawkers' individual hopes are represented by shotputter Yul Yost, who holds the best collegiate mark this year. His main competition will come from Texas A&M's Danny Roberts. Roberts won the Texas Relays and Yost the Kansas, so the Drake will be the rubber match in the series.

WE'RE SORRY
for the inconvenience caused by the cancellation of "The Adventures of Robin Hood" last Friday night. Our distributor failed to ship us the film in time for the showing. All those who failed to claim a refund should do so in the SUA office. Again, due to difficulties beyond our control, we will be unable to present "Tammy and the Bachelor" this week. In its place, a three part Academy Award winning program has been substituted consisting of "Cascablaanca," "Bear Country," and Chapter 13 of "Captain Video." Our policy will continue to be one of bringing to the campus the best in motion picture entertainment, both old and recent releases.
Plus Chapter 13 of Captain Video
