Track Team Gets 84 Points With
out Two Mile and Javelin
By Helen Higbee
Before a filled grandstand and bleach
ers, the University of Oregon’s track
team administered an overwhelming de
feat to the Agricultural College, to the
tune of 84 to 38. The Varsity bunch
were responsible for shattering three
Northwest records, tying a Coast rec
ord, breaking one college record, and
tying another.
In the second event, Martin Hawkins
began the good work by establishing
a Northwest record of 15 2-5 seconds
for the 120-yard hurdles. This equaled
the Coast record held by Edwards, of
Stanford.
Freshman McClure covered the mile
in 4 minutes 36 1-2 seconds, which
broke the Oregon record that Sievers
held for two years.
Then James Johns romped along the
quarter mile and took first place in
51 1-5 seconds, tying an old Oregon
record that belonged to Clyde Payne.
Ben Williams was not content with
first place in the pole vault or with the
Northwest record he made in Seattle
this month, and after defeating his
competitors put the stick on the top
of the standards. With a beautiful
vault he cleared 12 feet and 2-10 inches
in the first trial, establishing a new
Northwest record, and could probably
have done better if lie could have put
the stick up higher.
The Varsity relay team clipped 2 2-5
seconds off the Northwest record of
the University of Washington, lower
ing the time to 3 :27 2-5. Kay followed
instructions exactly by letting Siemens
of O. A. C. lead him at a hot pace in
the first half lap, and then nosing him
out in a breath-snatching finish.
Eliott improved his lead in a fast
quarter against Thompson. Then carne
Jim Johns in a whirlwind dash around
his course in 51 seconds. Castle, of O.
A. C., had no chance. McDaniels fin
ished up with a burst of speed, crossing
the tape a full quarter lap ahead of
Shadduck.
Bob Kellogg proved the most valu
able man Oregon had in tne field, an
nexing thirteen points for the lemon
and green by taking firsts in the shot
put and hammer throw and making
second place in the discus throw.
Bergman, of O. A. C.. gathered up
nine points by taking first place with
the hundred, second in the 220 hurdles,
and third in 220 dash.
Against four firsts for O. A. C., the
U. of O. won ten first places, which
helps to account for the score. Sap
Latouretie, Bristow, Standby, and the
promising freshman, Kay, are responsi
ble for three first places.
After the delayed start there was' not
a dull moment for the grandstand and
bleachers, so quickly were things pulled
off. There was more than usual inter
est in the hammer throw, when "Fat"
Bailey threw the hammer 131 feet the
first time . The grandstand stood up
and cheered for the popular lad.
BATTING AVERAGES OUT
IN DOUGHNUT LEAGUE
Woman s Emerald Gets Scoop on
All Rivals
At last the long-awaited Doughnut
League batting averages are out. They
were issued this morning especially for
the sporting page of the Woman’s Em
erald, and contain some interesting facts
and figures.
1 hose interested in the development
of intra-college sports as against spe
cialization and too much attention to
intercollegiate sports will be pleased to
learn that exactly 105 different players
have taken part in the 11 games already
played in the league’s schedule. Not
more than 15 or 20 of these have even
been trying for the first team squad,
which is pretty clear evidence of the
really valuable part played by the league
in bringing out men who would other
. isc not participate in athletics.
i he race for the batter’s cup recently
presented by L. H. Gregory to the play
er with the highest average in the
Doughnut League, who has been at bat
at least twelve times, is already becom
ing evciting. The cup must be won three
years, not in succession, to belong per
manently to one man. Though McIn
tosh, of the Kappa Sigmas, has hit 1000
in three trips to the plate, Barbur, of
the Sigma Nus, is the real leader of the
sluggers with six hits out of ten times
at bat, an average of .600. Huston with
.555 for 5 hits out of nine times up,
Shangle with .545, and Walker with .500
are pressing him close.
McIntosh and several others who have
been clouting effectively are unfortun
ately out of the race for the cup, as their
teams have been eliminated before they
had been the necessary twelve times at
bat.
One peculiar feature of the race for
swatting honors is the fact that many
first team players have been unable to
do anything with the bat in the Dough
nit League. Dudley Clarke, the mighty
captain of “Father Tom” Kelley’s romp
ing youngsters, whiffed once at a crit
iaal moment and batted only 250 in eight
times up. Ben Chandler has only one hit
ia nine times at the bat. “Chuck” Tay
lor is hitting only 125, and others are
even lower. Barbur and Gabrielson are
ihe only first teamers who seem able to
leep their batting optics before the daz
ling curves of the leading league twirl
ers.
Only six of the original ten clubs are
now left in the struggle for the Dough
nut cup, the others having been elimi
nated. Five games remain to be played
in the next two weeks, the race having
narrowed down to the Sigma Nus, Betas
and Avavas, in the first division, with
two games won and none lost, and the
Khoda Khans, Beavers and Acacias in
the second division, the Tawahs having
been downed by the Acacias last Wed
nesday by the score of 7 to 6. One of
the second division clubs and one of
those in the first will draw byes, after
the Khoda Khan-Beaver game is played,
and these clubs will then play each
other, the loser being eliminated. This
will leave four teams for the finals. The
Kappa Sibmas, present holders of the
cup, lost to the Avavas last Saturday
by the score of 8 to 5.
