Moeller Wins First Place In Discus Throw Distance May be World Record; Beats Old By Nearly Foot -- Oregon Men Good in Five Events at Washington Meet Saturday When Ed Moeller sent the discos spinning through thin air for a dis tance of ll>0 feet 7-10 inch to win a first place for Oregon in the dual meet with Washington at Seattle Saturday he probably set a new world’s record for that event, ac cording to Coach Bill Hayward. The recognized world’s record in the discus is 158 feet 1 11-4 inches, set, by Bud Houser of the University of Southern California in 1020. The discus Moeller used in the throw has been sent to the east to A. A. U. officials for measure ment and weighing. A diagram and a. photograph of the throw were also Bent east. The wind was blowing across tho field at the time of the throw, and could have in no way affected the distance. There is little doubt but the discus is standard in every respect. The discus was found to he actually two ounces over-weight when put on the scales in Seattle. It is the same one that Moeller used in the Olympic tryouts last spring. Then it passed official inspection. Ed Moeller used this same platter also in several of his throws before coming to the university. He heaved it 140 feet when in nigh school tit. San Diego, and 15G feet when in Fresno. A month or no ago, bnc Krenz of Stanford was credited with n throw of 103 feet 8 3-4 inches, hut it 1ms been reported that officials will not allow the mark because tin* discus lie used was thinner than the standard platter. Last spring Moeller bettered the world’s record with a throw of 15!) feet in practice. Hayward be lieves that there is still room for improvement in Moeller’s throwing form. Bill Tfayward discovered a lot, of things about his track team Satur day. The Iliskies took first place in every running event, while Ore gon captured all but one of the field events. Homer Dickson won the javelin throw by a margin of nearly II) feet throwing the spear 180 feet. 3 inches. Orville Qredthauor took the broad jump with a leap of 23 feet 2 3-8 inches, bettering the nearest Wash ington mark by a foot, and a half. Bobby Robinson polo vaulted 13 feet to Washington’s 12. Hob Kvorts won the high jump with a margin of 2 inches, clearing the bar at 5 feet eleven inches. Kd Moeller won the discus event by nearly ten feet. The mile and the two-mile runs were the only races in which the Huskies completely van off from the Webfoots. Ralph Hill placed third in the half-mile, there being only a yard or so between him and the winner, (ten ting of Washington, at. the finish. The dash men and tho quarter niilers finished in the same close formation. Bill T’rendergast <1 id some great work in taking seconds for Oregon in both the 100 and the 220. Tyrell Howry has been out-sprinting I’ren dergast in practice, but for some reason or other, Lowry was off form Saturday. Lowry has been covering the century consistently in 10 flat., but Saturday he could not even place against the winning time of 10.5 seconds. It was thus that the meet was not so close as the score of 82 to 4!) in favor of Washington indicated. And it is because of this, and be cause of tho fact that Oregon men were especially good in five of the events that Hill Hayward is opti mistic. in regard to the Pacific held at Hayward field May 2!) and 30.

H a r r i son at present is holder of the Oregon State, Washing ton State, and northwest singles championships, and is conceded a good cdiance to add the const inter collegiate singles ■ championship to his laurels at Los Angeles on Satur day. Lockwood Close Second Sherm Lockwood has given Harri son a good battle for first ranking on the Oregon team since resuming play this spring and is also expect ed to acquit himself well in this tournament. Harrison and Lock wood make up an unusually effect ive doubles combination, and Condi Abercrombie is counting on them to show up Well in the doubles play. .Tust before leaving for his train last night, Abercrombie gave vent to a few feelings of dissatisfaction about the way the inter-collegiate tournaments are conducted. “The trouble with a tournament like this,” lie said, “is that each school is allowed to send only two players, who must play both singles and doubles. Two men cannot prop erly be called a university team, and nil the emphasis and interest in the tournaments Is centered on the individual players and individual championships, instead of on the fact that they represent certain uni versities. Now Scoring System Planned “The national inter-collegiate ten 1 nis association plans to adopt a new scoring system as soon as the pres ent trophy is won permanently, which will probably be within a year or two. Under this plan each school may send any number of players up to four to the tourna ment. For every player that they can place in the semi-finals, each school will receive one point; the school represented by the runner-up will get two points additional, and the school of the champion will re ceive three points. Doubles would be scored in the same way, and the sum of ttie doubles and singles points would be each school’s score. Shows Collective Average “This scoring system would, of course, determine the individual champions in the same old way but I its big advantage lies in the fact that the team championships would go to the school whose players show the best collective average of play. “If this system is adopted,” Aber crombie concluded, “an immense amount of trouble would be saved in determining sectional and na tional team championships; Instead of having to hold separate dual matches such as the one Oregon played with Washington here last Saturday, the team rankings could be determined at the big tourna ment at the same time that the in dividual singles and doubles chatn pionships were being settled. Two Weeks Left For Final Play of Intramural Golf Link Privileges to End ,on June 1; Tilts Must Be Played Soon “The few remaining matches in intramural golf must be played within the next two weeks,’* said Carl Nelson yesterday, who is in charge of the tournament, “as the Eugene Country club privileges ex tend only until .Tune 1. After that day the golfers can no longer use the courses, meaning that the cham pionship can not be decided.” In league A the Phi Delts contin ued their upward climb last week and took the Theta Chi mashio vvrelders into camp 7 to 5. They will meet the ATO S in what prom ises to he a feature battle with the league championship at stake. The ATO golfers defeated Friendly' hall which in turn defeated the Phi Delts in the opening round. Since then the Phi Pelts have discovered some new material. The match is scheduled for early this week. In League B the Sigma Chi-Sig ma Nu play is slowing down the match and must played early in the week or be scratched. The winner of this plays Phi Kappa Psi fo the right to play the Betas for the league championship. The Betas won their last week’s match with Phi Sigma Kappa by default. Omega Tossers Win From Sherry Ross With Giles pitching air-tight ball, Omega hall emerged victor over Sherry Boss hall, -1 to 2, yesterday afternoon in an intramural baseball ga me. Giles allowed the Sherry Boss team but two hits and would have had a shut-out victory if his team mates had given him support in the field.
