KU field hockey record misleads
By DAN BOWERMAN
Sports Writer
Field hockey coach Dianna Beebe ended her first season at KU Saturday with what was the best start in college history.
But that record gives little indication of the season that KU's team had. Three of the losses came during one week in October and another three came at the Association of Athletics for Women (AIAW) Region 5 ski tournament, which ended Saturday.
KU won two games before dropping three. Two of the losses were to the teams that placed first and second in the regional tournament and level to the national tournament next week.
The Jayhawks missed being one of the
teams to advance to the AIAW nationals at Valley Forge Military Academy in Wayne, Pa., by 53 seconds. KU lost in a playoff game Friday to Central Missouri State by 53 seconds of penetration time (time the ball is knocked out). After the game ended in a scoreless tie
CMS went on to place second in the tournament, behind the defending champion of Region Six, Bemidji State College, and then the Jayhawks it was the end of the season.
"On any given day or any given hour, either team could win," she said yesterday. "This time they just had 53 seconds more penetration time."
KU played well, Beele said, and CMS may have come into the game a little overconfident because of the 5-1 thrashing it gave the Jayhawks Oct. 6.
"I thought everybody (for KU) gave 150 per cent," she said. "We used good tactics, good stick work, and we moved the ball side to side, which is good field hockey.
Bebee said the KU-CMS game was the most exciting of the tourney because two of its members were from the school.
"Our defense played very well in the
slighting cage and Junet Ballard played
extremely hard."

Orange Bowl merry-go-round set

KANSAS CITY, Mo. There will be a method to the madness of selecting the Big Eight Conference representative to the Orange Ball Committee and the Orange Ball Committee and Monday.
Five teams are in first place in the frzened Big Eight—and as many as three could be deadlocked when the season ends. The Nebraska-Nebraska game Nov. 38 at Lincoln
The Iowa State Cyclones sent the conference race spinning into confusion during Saturday's Tournament victory over Iowa, knocking the Cornelians out of sole possession of the top spot.
Colorado, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State,
all with 4-2 conference records, also share
a record.
Southern California and Ohio State but loser of three Big Eight games, is out of the running, along with Kansas and Kansas State.
The Orange Bowl Committee said yesterday that if there was a two-way tie, the winner of the game between those two teams would go to the bowl.
But the chance of a three-way finish is more likely. The committee said one of the reasons was that they
- If one team had beaten the other two during the season, it would be invited.
- If two of the teams had beaten the third, that team would be eliminated. The two teams had not.
*If neither of the above situations existed, the team with the best overall rating should be selected.*
"That's a super way to do it," Earle
Bruce, the Iowa State coach, said Monday. "For once, fair men have come up with a fair way of choosing a team. They have my vote."
Two and possibly three teams will be eliminated Saturday, when Colorado travels to Kansas State and Oklahoma State. The first two games before theoklaoma-Nebraska clash
"We were told off against Carleton," Beebe said, "We made elementary mistakes, and it was just because of the letdown from the CMS game."
Reamon says loss to CU no disgrace to swimmers
Nebraska could claim the invitation if it beats Oklahoma, and both Oklahoma State and Colorado win. The Cornhuskers have defeated both the Cowboys and Buffaloes.
The Jayhawks fell to Bemidji State Friday morning, 4-1, and Beebe said although Bemidji had good skills, KU made too many mistakes to win the game.
Some people might like to call Colorado's 60-53 victory over Kansas last Friday in the opening swim meet of the season an upset, and their KU coach Dick Reamon in that crowd.
"With the experience of the regional, I think we can start where we ended this year," she said. "We'll have a young but competitive team."

But Beebe is already looking ahead to the 1977 season.

The altitude is a factor that could have had an effect in Boulder. Reamon said he thought the effect was mostly about the Sonoma basin, but about the problem of the altitude and
KU lost both the 400-yd freestyle relay and the 400-yd medley relay against Colorado. According to the scoring system those losses put the jayhawks down 14-0.
"Colorado is a much improved team," Reason said. "I'd be much more concerned if I thought we couldn't beat CU in the Eight championship. But there is no doubt in my mind that we will beat them. Right now it's just a matter of conditioning."
The Kansas Jayhawks will play the Missouri Tigers Jan. 8 in the first televised game of the Big Eight basketball schedule, the conference announced Sunday.
"It was certainly no disgrace to lose to CU. I feel that they have three of the top six sprinters in the Big Eight. The sprints are definitely our weakest area and I'm concerned about them. But the relays also hurt us. We needed to win one of those."
There is the continuing possibility the field hockey program could be dropped, but Beebe said the decision depended on whether the women's athletic department received enough money to finance all women's sports.
"I felt that we hit it a liltah lot more than they beat us." Rehamn said yesterday. "It's really too early to tell what kind of effect the loss will have on us, but I think if we would have run the meet again on Saturday morning we would have won.
Of the nine games to be televised, Kansas will play in at least three. Its games against Oklahoma in Norman Jan. 15 and against Missouri in Feb. 12 are scheduled to be televised.
Here is the Big Eight television schedule:
Kansas to play in 3 TV games
worried about it ahead of time. As the meet progresses, the swimmers found it wasn't so bad.
"We are very frustrated over the loss," continued Reasonn, "but we learned a lot from it. We needed the competitive influence because we are a very young team. We are still finding out about ourselves."
The invitation would go to Colorado if it wins along with Oklahoma and either Iowa State or Oklahoma State. The Buffaloes won all three games with those opponents.
Jan. 6 - Mt. Laurean at KANAS
Jan. 15 - Nebraska at Iowa State, KANAS at Oklahoma
Jan. 28 - Oklahoma State at Nebraska
Feb. 1 - Oklahoma State at Kansas
Feb. 15 - Kansas at KANAS
Feb. 28 - Kansas at KANAS
The next meet for the men's team will be the Big Eight Invitational Relay Dec. 3-4 in Columbia. Mo. Reamon doesn't think theàyoff will have an adverse effect on his
"I'm going to grant the men a full vacation. We've been working hard all year and they deserve a vacation. I think they'll come back from vacation better prepared mentally, I trust them enough to know that they will practice on their own."
Iowa State would go to its first Orange "Bowl" if joined at the top by Nebraska and Colorado, since the best overall record formula would be used. The Cyclones would be 9-2, the Cornhuskers 8-2-1 and Colorado 8-3.
Reason plans to continue to hold practices in the same format until Thanksgiving. The stress will still be on the coaches, so the sprints will begin not after vacation.
Oklahoma and Oklahoma State would need a loss or tie by Colorado to be considered. Since Colorado plays Kansas State, during conference play, that possibility is unlikely.
Few other Big Eight coaches shared Bruce's enthusiasm for the committee formula, although most agreed it was as fair as possible.
"The key is money," she said. "It depends on how much money will be spent and how much money will be generated into the women's program. If we have the money, then field hockey will remain at KU."
Beebe will loss at least three and possibly six players from this year's squad. Tandy Carlyle, Bella Lewellyn and Alexis Wagner will graduate. Peggy Hatfield, Mary Aston and Janet Ballard will be able to compete for the Jayhawks next season only if their student teaching assignments are close to KU.
"We don't need a meet this weekend. I know I'm tired and there's a lot of work to do."
