KU overpowers hapless Ichabods Bv TONY FITTS Snorts Writer Every KU starter scored at least one run as Kamas swaggered a double header yesterday after a scoreless second. Jayhawk hitters overpowered Icambot pitches, slashing 7 hits in the two games. Brian Gray hit two doubles, a triple and a home run. The third, three singles and another homer to the total. Kansas started slowly in both games, allowing Washburn to take early leads. But Washburn led 2-1 after the top of the third inning of the first game, but John Spoettwood, Steve Jeltz, Wright and Gray scored in the bottom of the fourth to take the lead. KU added three runs in the game to garnish the victory. **1HAT WAS a preview of the fireworks.** In the second game, Washburn scored two runs in the first inning, but KU batted around the pitch to score three 13 runs and seal on the victory a little earlier. Danny Graham led off the KU third. He had broken a seven-game hitting drought in the sixth inning of the first game, and he kept up the good work in the third inning of the second game, with another two singles and two runs acced. "I've been hitting the ball fairly well," Graham said after the game, "but it just wasn't been finding the holes. Those guys had to get hit." Bight, but it still feels good to get hits. KU coach Floyd Temple agreed with the calf of the competition and was pleased to have his name included. "IF YOU can't get a base hit off that pitching, you got problems." Temple said, "but any time you get a base hit, it perks up your confidence. As long as Danny does the job behind the plate, he'll be all right." Graham's three for five performance raised his average 30 points, to 169. Graham wasn't the only Jayhawk to get more than one hit during that inning. Spottedwolf and Jeltz also had two singles, which were not good for the addicted another single. Gray got two RBI with his triple, and Bob Halastik knocked in a run with a double. Four Ichabod pitchers added to KU's offensive output in that inning by giving up a total of five walks and throwing three wild pitches. There was also three charged to Ichabod catcher Chris Meike. AFTER THE third, tilt put in his second-line players where he could but KU still scored four more runs before the rout. They were the merciful application of the ten-run rule. Temple even put in an untried Jayhawk pitcher. Sophomore walk-on Kurt Kaiten finished the game, retiring three in the fifth inning. He was able to kick些 kicks got the victory, raising his record to 2-0. Washburn used five pitchers, including Mike Worthington, who had started the game at second base. The starter, Mike Ireland, got the loss. "I don't really like to beat a team like that," Temple said. "They're not that bad of a ball club—it just happened that the bats got hot. "But it is nice to be able to relax a little bit. Something like this is good for us—we can get a little momentum going into a tough series." KU opens a four-game series with Iowa State on Friday. ISU is tied with Kansas for third place in the eastern division of the Big Eight with a 6-4 conference record. The Friday double-header begins at 1:30 at Quigley Field. The 'Hawks and the Cyclones will play another Saturday at 1. "It looks like we're going to have to win four this weekend to be able to finish in the top two of the division and make it into the tournament." "Temple said.

After Shelly Sinclair threw a five-hitter at the Shockers for a 2-1 victory in the opener, KU sprang to a two-run rally in the bottom of the seven inning to win the night cap-6-5. KU needed the rally because three errors, two on beanball thrown by third baseman Jill Larson, led to four Wichita State runs in the second. With the bases loaded and one, an Jus, Krobe hit a smash down the third base line. Larson dove to her right, gloved it, and scrambled to her feet to go for the runner, Melody Haise, at the plate. But her throw hit back on the head of the head and two runs were scored. WITH KROHE on second and Laura Roberts on third, Janet Welling grounded to pitcher Margaret Math. Instead of running at Robered, who was caught between third and home. Mah quickly tossed the ball to Larson. Robered headed home and Larson in the back in the back of the head and two runs were handed, handling Wichita State a 4-1 advantage. "That ball just had a magnet in it," Larson said afterwards. "That has to be the one." "The second time I tried to throw it softer to get it over the runner's head, but I didn't do it. Nothing like this has ever happened before." Larson, however, redeemed herself in the bottom of the seventh. KU TEDT THE score 44 on Williams' run-score single in the bottom of the sixth, but the Shockers went ahead again in the seventh with three singles. Kelly Phipps, who reached bases all four times and scored three runs, and Laura Frost, who scored twice, drew walks to off the home half of the seventh. After a change of pitchers and a wild pitch to move up the runners, Larson dropped a bloop double in front of the leftfielder to score Phipps for the tying run. The next batter, Julie Woodman, stroked a simple out of the second baseman's hand. "I like them down the middle," Woodman said. "That's what I was looking for and was trying to find." "When you see pitching like that, and there's not much on it, you should be able to jump on it. Sometimes though, it can affect your timing more than heat." LARSON WAS RELIEVED to see her divine nofly drop in. Sinclair raised her record to 16-6 with the victory in the opener, and Mah raised hers to 34. Bath mittens wend the distance. "They're not that strong a team to have two close games with," Stancliff said "But their defense is so good." "I really didn't think mine was going to be better," Larson said. "When you do this it makes sense." Even though the victories raised KU's record to 25-10, head coach Bob Stancill was unimpressed by his team's performance against Wichita. 10-34. Both pitchers went the distance. Wichita State's record is now 14-18 Sandell and Campbell, Sucker and Brazzone. BK Boller, Klaren, KU-W. Sucker (16-4). L-Sandell.
