By Mark Spencer

The good was that both teams drilled the Tigers 9-0. The women extended their undefeated Big Eight to 5-0, and the men improved to 4-0.
The bad was an injury to Kansas freshman Rhain Buth's left leg when he tripped during the No. 2 doubles match.
"They did an x-ray on Rhain and it showed no fracture." Kansas men's tennis coach Scott Perelman said. "I was shocked that he will be a bone scan done tomorrow."
The ugly side of tennis, if indeed there is one, was also evident in the No. 2 doubles match.
Buth and Kansas junior Pat Han battled Missouri's Ryan Tucker and Robert Rogers. The final score, 6-7, 6-2, 6-4, might indicate a competitive match, but more was involved than that.
Missouri's Rogers and Tucker预定 to taunt the Kansas duo more than play tennis. Han and Tucker exchanged words early, but Han concentrated his efforts towards tennis after being calmed by Perelman.
Tucker, however, continued to taint Hank and Buth and even antagonized a spectator standing outside the building into the surrounding chain-link fence.
"They were hitting some shots an- put us down 4-1 early," Han said. "Then, the guy starts calling me names. I guess it gets frustrating for those guys when they lose every
Kansas seniors Craig Wildey and Jeff Gross, and junior Rafael Rangel, Paul Garvin and Han polished off their Tiger opponents in straight sets.
The women's team took an equally productive but less eventful course through the Missouri lineup in its 9-0 victory.
Kansas women's tennis coach Michael Center said he was pleased with the Jayhawks' domination of the overmatched Tigers.
set for a singles victory
"I told them from the start to give this team respect and play them hard," he said. "I was hoping it would turn out this way, and it did."
Kansas juniors Eveline Hamers, Renee Raychaudhury, Page Goin and Laura Hagemann and freshmen were victorious in singles competition.
Raychaudhuri's match, like nearly others, lasted just over 25 minutes.
She said, "We all went into the match thinking they were like any other team."
The Kansas doubles teams of No. 1 Hamers and Raychaudhour. No. 2 Miles and Goins and No. 3 Buffy Miles and Joy Pelz added straight-set victories.
In coming concise conference confrontations, both tennis teams play Oklahoma State on Saturday and Oklahoma on Sunday at the field house courts. On both days the women play at 9 a.m. and the men play at 2 p.m.

'Hawks work on stature of Relays

All three phone lines in the Kansas Reflags headquarters were lit up Monday afternoon.
"They have been lit up all day," David Kaiser, Relays manager, said.
Kaiser was answering the phones and taking registrations from high school and college for the 66th annual Kansas Relays.
The Relays begin today and are the end result of a seven-month planning process Kaiser has built. The relays will sit at the stature the Relays once had
"We started working on this in September," he said. "I think it could be the second coming of the Kansas Relays."
Kaiser, a self-proclaimed "rookie" Resy manager, said that several independent athletes could add to the excitement of the Relays.
Ed Kaminski of the New York Athletic Club is the favorite in the men's javelin. He comes to serve with a mark of 241 feet, 1 inch.
The Kansas record for women's javelin is 166-10, a mark that may be challenged by Kansas' freshman sensation Heather Berlin.
On the women's side, Laverne Eave from the Bahamas is entered in the javelin with a throw of 214.
only Kansas All-American Pat Manson, but five former Kansas All Americans as well. One of those is Jeff Buckingham, the owner of the Kansas outdoor vault record of 18·10³⁴.
A throw of 223-8 is the high mark for favored John Billingsley of the Stars and Stripes track club in the hammer.
Kansas freshman Michael Cox is another athlete who Kaiser said should add to the excitement. Cox competed in the Junior World Cross Country Championships, organized by his outdoor season by blowing away the field in the 1,500-meter run last week in Nebraska.
Kansas coach Gary Schwartz said that the Jayhawks were looking forward to the Relays.
He said the teams had not altered their training for the meet, but that he expected to see them in front of the home crowd.
Kaiser said that in an effort to get more fans in Memorial Stadium, he sent letters to elementary schools in surrounding communities inviting students to the Relays.
He said he hoped to have nearly 500 elementary students in the stands.
"Having those younger kids will add to the excitement and put some more youth back into the Relays," Kaiser said.
Jeff Gross returns a serve against defeated Leslie 6-1, 6-0.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Did he jump or was he pushed? Dipple Ghepels was flanked by his family, and not by Notre Dame officials, when he announced his retirement after 20 years as coach of the Fighting Irish.
The huge Monogram Room, and upstairs banquet hall in the Joyce Athletics and Convocation Center on son 393 games, didn't lack for space.
The long walls were lined with w-wishers and the curious: friends and coaches from the athletic department, the public relations staff and priests.

After Kansas shot 321 in the first round, Johnson said she told the team to relax and have fun.

in the second half, Matt faceoff offensive attack in three days, the Kansas baseball team rapped 26 hits en route to a 22-0 mauling of the Emporia State Hornets last night at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
Last night's statistics and those from Sunday's 2-3 Kansas victory against Graceland College give the Jayhawks 50 runs, 56 hits and no fielding errors in their last two games.
"They had a few bad rounds, and those will kill you every time," Johnson said. "They were just not willing to play the ball, keeping the ball in play very well."
"I like these games," Kansas coach Dave Bingham said. "I thought it might happen on Sunday, but I didn't think it would tonight."
The Jayhawks struck often and severely against the Hornets, scoring runs in every inning but the third and sixth.

Fashion goes back in time
By Jennifer Bach
It may be time for our generation to stop sneezing at our parents' old clothes and start trying them on. You know the clothes - the bell-bottomed, psychedelic, striped and even polyester ones shoved way in the back of mom's and dad's closet. The clothes that our generation has been gawking and laughing at for years.
Now it's our parents' generation's turn to laugh, or at least say they told us so, because to the disgust of some, and the joy of others, the old styles from the '50s, '60s and '70s are back.
Take a casual stroll around the campus and see for yourself if it sounds doubtful. Check out the bright floral patterns, on many of the outfits, the stripes, the polka dots, the psychedelics, the tent dresses, Birkensocks, the long skirts and short skirts, the saddle shoes and the feared bell bottoms.
This fashion blast from the past is not so overwhelming that the campus resembles a scene from the movie "Grease," but it is there, and it seems to be growing more popular every day.
Girls all around are wearing long skirts that reach their
ankles, not quite poodle ones yet, but long, with white scrunched up socks and white Keds. It is a look that slightly resembles Sandra Dee.
Guys, while they are not sporting the white T-shirt and black leather jacket look, are rolling up their pants and jeans and wearing white socks and loafers. Sound familiar? It should. James Dean wore the same thing in "Rebel Without a Cause" in 1955.
Saddle shoes also have made a comeback. Guys and girls alike are wearing them with all kinds of outfits.
Todd Stubbe, New York junior, has two pairs, one black and white and the other black and brown.
"I feel old-fashioned when I wear the white ones," he said. They are summary, but no more comfortable than other shoes. But it was something that was different."
Tie-dye and Birkenstocks have been back for awhile, and they've lasted. Although not everyone appreciates the Woodstock generation look,
Although the fashion seems to predominantly represent the '50s, there is also a splash of the '60s and '70s thrown in.
there are a lot of the casual earthy clothes worn with the fashionable home-made beaded and braided jewelry and headbands on students all across campus.
As for the styles of the 70s, jeans have yet to return to bell bottoms, but slacks have already made the switch. There are many new stylish pants that now swirl widely at the base of people's legs as they walk.
Many students turned green at the thought of jeans billowing out at the ankle, but many liked and even owned a pair of the bell-bottomed slacks.
Monica Meyer, Schomberg sophomore, said she hated the bell-bottomed jeans look, but liked the way a lot of the old fashions have been modified.
"The pants have a '90s look similar to the '60s, but they have their own '90s style," she said. "I think everything is a little modified."
Donna Van Meter, a saleswoman at The Jones Store in Bannister Mall, said she noticed a switch back to an older style of dress and thought that the wearing of older styles might have some symbolic meaning.
"It's definitely coming back, no doubt about it." Van Meter
said. "There are the psychedelic leggings, baby doll tops and the platter collar in dresses. Swimmers cover-ups are coming back. The wider, brighter more tropical ties for men are back. They're also trying to bring the mood ring back.
"Yes, it has shifted back in time. I think people are scared of where the world is going and they're trying to stop it."
And much to people's surprise, even the shiny polyester shirts, like the ones John Travolta displayed in "Saturday Night Fever" are here again.
However, there are students who feel that this old-fashioned wave is not simply a copycat image of the past.
"It makes me mad that it is treated like a throwback," Kelly Marks, Derby junior, said. "We aren't stealing from the past. We have the ability to look back, and we've adopted stuff from the past. People are looking for their own uniqueness, not trying to copy them."
Colleen McKinney, Lorenex freshman, said some people took this old-fashioned look to the extremes. Although she said she thought the style was fun, she understood how other people
might not like it.
McKinney said that when she was in high school, she would never have worn some of her mother's old clothes, but that now she wore some of the ones her mom didn't get rid of.
"It's sogarish to look at a lot of people probably don't think it's very tasteful," she said. "College kids have been dressing this way for a long time. I guess it's just going into the mainstream now. I don't think it'll die, the colors are really great and bright."
"I wish she hadn't gotten rid of them," she said. "They would be a real find in a vintage store now."
Stephanie Bloyd, Wichita freshman, said that she liked the returning look, but thought it might die out soon.
"It's new for our generation," Bloyd said.
"I think it will get old, too. Well, it's already old, but it might get boring. I hope it's not the only fashion that will come back."
So the next time you catch yourself making fun of your mom's and dad's old outfits, stop and try them on. You may find you're wearing the latest fashion.
