Yost Looms as Jayhawkers Chief Contender at Austin
KU's 32-year-old shot-putter appears to be the Jayhawker track team's best chance for a first place ribbon in the Texas Relays this weekend at Austin.
Yul Yost, who didn't begin shot-putting seriously until he was 30, goes into the Texas carnival with the best pre-meet toss in the event.
But Yost will have to be in top form if he is to gain a first for KU, something Coach Bill Easton's team haven't missed capturing since 1949 at Austin.
YOST, WHO is undefeated for the year, set a career mark of 57-6 at the Kansas State Indoor Invitational March. 23.
Three other top contenders for the spot put title in the 36th Texas Relays are within a foot of Yost.
George Woods of Southern Illinois holds the next best heave to Yost's. Yost beat Woods by a yard when the two schools met in a triangular meet here, but Woods hit 57-134 to win the Arkansas Relays and set a new career high last Saturday.
WOODS IS still throwing with a left foot he wounded when a shotgun he was carrying discharged last November. In fact, pellets from the accident remain in the Saluki's foot.
Danny Roberts of Texas A & M is close to the 57-foot range, too. Roberts had a 56-11 toss in the San Angelo Relays last Saturday.
Frank Mazza of Baylor has thrown the sphere 56-6. Jim Lancaster, his teammate, has a 56-1 effort to his credit.
DAVE MAGRANE of Drake, who sets a school record nearly every time he competes, hit a new high of 56-2 for second place behind Woods at the Arkansas Relays.
In the event at the Texas Relays last year, Roberts was third on $55-41^{\frac{2}{3}}$ and Mazza placed fifth with
A New Angle To 'Fix' Story
ATLANTA — (UPI) — The first person informed of a controversial telephone conversation between former Georgia Athletic Director Wallace Butts and Alabama Coach Paul (Bear) Bryant considered it routine coaches' chit-chat, a previously undisclosed document showed today.
John Carmichael said the conversation as related to him by associate George Burnett, who said he accidentally overheard it, differed completely from the version that appeared in a Saturday Evening Post article.
The magazine story, based on Burnett's account of the telephone talk, accused Butts of giving away Georgia team secrets to Bryant nine days before the 1962 Alabama-Georgia football game. Alabama, a 17-point favorite, defeated Georgia, 35-0. Butts and Bryant denied it.
"The conversation quoted to me that morning, when it was fresh in his mind, was not important enough to impress me that anybody was throwing a football game," Carmichael said.
"It sounds like just basic conversation between coaches," Carmichael said in one of 16 documents gathered by State Atty. Gen. Eugene Cook during a two-week investigation of the Post accusation. The document, however, was not released with the other 15 last Tuesday but was obtained yesterday by United Press International.

Al Oerter was the last KU winner in the event at Austin. The twoweat Olympic discus champion swept both the shot and discus in 1958, his mark in the former a 56-1.
YOST DID NOT even compete in the meet last year. He has improved his career high more than a yard since he placed fourth in last year's conference outdoor meet at 54-2%.
Pete Talbott, who placed fifth in the javelin last year, has a lame back and will not make the trip this weekend.
Only other Jayhawk individual entries in the meet will be Doug Stoner or Barry Hanratty in the discus and Floyd Manning in the pole vault.
ONCE CONSIDERED threats, two KU high jumpers are not making the rip because of injuries. Ron Swanson has a lame knee, and Charlie Twiss has a bruised heel.
The loss of Ted Riesinger in the relays is expected to affect the success of KU relay units at Austin. Riesinger has been out since the conference indoor meet with a thigh pull.
