Pacific Takes Opening Tilt Series, 8 to 7 Oregon Ties Score, But Badgers Rally and Retake Lead Both Teams Knock Out a Homer Apiece By DICK SYRING In a contest marked with home runs, a triple, and a varied assort ment of southpaw pitching, the University of Oregon baseball team lost a close 8 to 7 game to Pacific University yesterday afternoon on the varsity diamond. Another game will be played this afternoon at 4 o’clock by the same teams. If it hadn't been for a certain Mr. James Cameron, Pacific’s hus ky captain and outfielder, Lefty MacDonald, varsity flinger, might have had an enjoyable afternoon. It was Cameron who started the fire works in the very first inning. Ilutt, lead-off man, crashed out a double to left but was thrown out at third when ho tried to stretch his blow into a triple. Tuor, second baseman, placed a short Texas leaguer over second base. Cameron Gets Homer T-hen stepped the mighty Mr. Cameron to the plate with a big bludgeon in his hand. In a previous contest at O. A. C. ho shook the dust of the outer gardens for two homo runs in one afternoon. Mr. Cameron threw back his head, pulled in his ears, and with a weighty swing sent the pellet far over the head of Har ry Dutton, Oregon center fielder, for a homer and two runs. The Pacific team scored two more runs in the second. Epps, first man up in the fourth, drove a triple into center field. Don McCormick doubled down the loft field foul lino to score Epps. Harry Dutton placed a Texas leaguer over first and scorod McCormick. Kim inki walked, but Lester Johnson sacrificed Dutton in for the third run of the canto. Pacific Breaks Tie Pacific broke the tie in the sev enth and went ahead by four runs on an error, two hits, a sacrifice, and a doublo by the pestiferous Mr. Cameron. At the end of this in ning, Macdonald and his left flip per retired in favor of Scotty Kret r.er, who finished the game without being scorod on. Tho Webfoots chewed down this load with a two run spurt in the seventh on clean hits by McCormick and Mimnnugh, and Lynn Jones dis played Babe Ruthian tendencies in the last of the ninth by lofting a tremendous fly over tho head of tho obstreperous Mr. Cnmoron in left field. The blow cleared Agate street and may bo rolling yet. Nine Plays Better The Oregon varsity nine played a somewhat improvod game over the exhibition of Wednesday. Rein hart’s starting combination with Dorn McCormick on third and Lester Johnson on second proved success ful. McCormick garnered two i doubles and a single in five trips to the plate as well as handling one assist and scoring three putouts. Johnson had a great day in the field with five putouts. Freddy West, right hander, will probably occupy the mound for the Webfoots this afternoon. Either Rowe or Cameron will be in the box for the Badgers.

With only two weeks of practice behind them, Coacjh Spike Leslie is expecting to en counter strong op position from the Albany bat wield ers. Albany re cently lost a close game to Linfield college, who in Spike Leslie turn won a ten-inning tilt from the varsity Wednesday afternoon. Competition has been unusually keen for regular places on the frosh team this year, and as yet no regular nine has been selected. Sev eral aspirants are trying out for each position and Coach Leslie is planning to give them all a chance in tomorrow’s game. “Nobody has received a regular assignment on the team,” said Les lit, “and I want to see all that have been turning out to be in uniform Saturday. I expect to give all that I can a chance to play.” The catching task will either fall i to Speer or Walton. Three pitchers have been showing up well and the mound duty will either go to Ander son, McDonald, or Fuller. Nelson will probably start the game at first base. Second base assignment lies between Wirth and Strommer. Bobie will start as shortstop with Mason third. Outfield selections will be made from Williams, Coleman, Ciilcs, Lauglilin, and Hatton.
