Track Team Plans Grind For Big Meet Comparative Showings Made This Season Are Listed Cougar and Washington Sprinters Good Editor’s note: This is the first of ;i series of articles by Jack Burke, giving the relative strength and the comparative times made this season by the teams entered Jn the Pacific Northwest Conference track meet to be held at Pullman, Washington, May 31. With two barriers in the form of dual meets with Oregon State and Washington successfully surmounted, the Oregon track team may now turn its attention to the Pacific Northwest Confer ence meet which will be run off next Saturday, May 31. Oregon has been very success ful in the past two meets, but in the big meet many factors will be present that are not found in the dual competition. There will be entries from five colleges in the Northwest entered in the Pullman races and events, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington, Washington State, and Idaho. Montana may be represented and here another unknown enters. The Montana men are noted for their speed and as they have not been in competi tion in the Northwest this season nothing is known of their strength. Sprinters Strong Other factors which will deter mine the fate of the Lemon and Green squad is the distribution of first places. Oregon took nine first places from Washington and tied for a tenth in the high jump In the Oregon State meet the Web foots took 12 firsts. The century will find a trio of speedsters competing. Tyrrel Lowry, Oregon; Pendleton, Wash ington, and Foster of Washington State. By times made Foster must be given the edge as the big Cougar made 9.9 against the Hus kies to Beat Pendleton, who in turn was beaten by Lowry. John son, the Oregon State hope in this event has not turned in as fast times as have the other run ners anil Ije in turn holds a win over Jossis the best Idaho entry. This would give the Washington State team a first in this event with Oregon and Washington vie ing for the second and third posi tions. Keeord Looms The best time in the 220 turned in this season is 21.2, made by Pendleton, Washington, against Washington State. Against him in this race will be the group which will compete in the 100 and Paul Bale of Oregon who set a new Oregon-O. S. C. mark of 22 flat in this event last Saturday. Bale, Pendleton, Lowry, and Fos ter should fight for the places in this event with the Husky star taking a slight edge. Two more fust places go to Washington in the hurdles with Steve Anderson on deck. Ander son hasn’t been approached this season and the big question is who will take the remaining places in the races. Lowry, of Oregon, has beaten Whiting, Anderson's team-mate in the low sticks and has also beaten his own team-mates and Prentiss of Oregon State. As Whiting finished third in the Hus ky-Cougar meet this would give Lowry a good chance against Whittington, the Cougar, for sec ond, with third place a toss up be tween Ed Siegmund, Oregon, and Prentiss, Oregon State, in addi tion to the one who loses out in the fight for second. Anderson Cinch In the high sticks, Anderson again is a cinch. For second place Martin of Oregon State looks good although lie was shut out in the Idaho meet by Lemp. Sieg mund beat out O'Neill of Wash ington who came in close to Steve's heels against the Cougars and was in turn beaten by Martin. So second and third should be hot ly contested. This would give Washington three firsts with the other first place going to Washington State Seconds and thirds in these four races should be evenly divided with any edge going to Oregon. Tomorrow times and showings in the middle distances will be re iterated. In these events Oregon looks much better.

By PHIL COGSWELL The Oregon varsity baseball team is back after a rather un successful tour of the Northwest. 1 The team won two games from Idaho, but dropped two games to both Washington State and the Huskies. The Webfoots encountered mis erable weather after playing Idaho. At the Cougar camp the first game was played in a steady drizzle and losing this contest seemed to have a bad affect on | the team's spirit. The Cougars I scored a flock of runs in the la.st ' half of the ninth while, although j it was pouring rain, the umpire | refused to call the game. The next : game against Washington State ! was played on the football field because it was impossible to use the regular diamond due to the mud. Ken Scales, one of Oregon's two best pitchers, played in the 1 outfield during the game and twisted his ankle badly. This cost the team his services against the j Huskies. * * * Despite the fact that at Seattle a steady and cold wind made base ball playing very unpleasant, the Webfoots and the Huskies had a real battle in their first game, which Washington finally won, 2 ( to 1. The second game was easy for the Huskies. They took it, 5 to 0. This gave them the lead , in the conference again with nine victories against two defeats. Only three games remain on the Duck baseball schedule. These are all against Oregon State. The Staters have one game to their credit, but with a little recupera tion the WebfOots will give them a battle for the remaining three. * * * Bill Reinhart can look with pleasure on the frosh baseball crop coming up for next season. Jack Hughes is one of the best pitchers the fro. '.i have had in a long time. He has plenty of speed and good control. All he needs is experi ence. Then there is Peter Schmitz, who is handicapped by a twisted leg, but has a wonderful throwing arm. Peter can make that ball curve marvelously. In the last rook game he pitched, he lost, but he struck out 11 men. Ted Jensen is probably the lead ing slugger in the frosh ranks. He was going great in the last game and knocked the ball all over the field. The fielding of the whole frosh team has been good. LeRoy Shaneman is another star. He should make a regular receiver for the varsity next year. « * * Oregon’s star miler took it easy against? O. S. C. last Saturday. Ralph Hill was under orders from Bill Hayward not to run under 1:30. Hayward is not taking any chances with his champion. He wants him to be in top form when he meets Kiser again in (he North west championship meet at Wash ington State. Frosh Nine Wins From O.S.C., 8-7 Ted Jensen Is Star Hitter In Saturday’s Battle TODAY’S GAMES 3:15 Alpha Upsilon-Sherry Ross. , Sigma Chi-Delt. ¥■—-* The frosh-rook baseball series was completed last Saturday on Reinhart field when the Oregon babes nosed out the yearlings from Corvallis by an 8-to-7 score. The frosh established supremacy over their ancient rivals, taking three out of the four games. Saturday's fray was a real bat tle. The score was tied three times. In the ninth the rooks I counted three runs when Biana cone, Beaver shortstop, socked a homer over the fence to score two ahead of himself. This knotted I the score, but the frosh came back in their half to win. Ted Jensen was the star hitter in the frosh lineup. He made four hits during the game. His double in the ninth scored the winning run. Jack Hughes pitched for the frosh. winning his second from the rooks. Peter Schmitz won the other victory from the rooks.

Oregon Defeats O. S. C. 77-54 in Dual Track Meet Dickson Sets New Record For Northwest in Javelin Throw Hill Lets Steele Win Mile Then Finishes Second 1 Oregon varsity runners ran true to form to defeat Oregon State Saturday 77 to 54 at Corvallis. The lemon yellow and green squad took the lead in the first event on the afternoon’s program and the Beavers never succeeded in catch ing up with the Oregon runners. The Orangemen were able to take only four first places, including, the relay which Coach Bill Hay ward conceded to the Corvallis team. Homer Dickson set a new Northwest javelin record of 195 feet 11 1-4 inches to feature the meet. Homer Dickson and Tyrell Low ry headed the Webfoot point get ters with eight points. Virg Schreiber, sophomore dashman, upset the dope in the hundred to beat Lowry and Johnson, the Ore gon State star, to the tape in :10.2. Lowry won the 220 low hurdles to cop his other five points. He didn’t enter the 220 yard dash and Paul Bale, another sophomore, came through to win it for Oregon in :22 flat. Beavers Win 880 The Orangemen made their strongest bid in the 880 when Young and Johnson placed one two to garner eight points be tween them. Pat Moran was off form and finished third. Martin won the high hurdles and Bergu son won the shot-put to get the only other first places won by the Beaver men. The Oregon mile board of strat egy succeeded wonderfully well in the mile run with Steele placing first and Ralph Hill, who last week broke the world’s intercollegiate record, coming in second. Hill was content to jog along and let Steele set the pace. Mullins, Orange runner, was obviously waiting for Hill to sprint and take the lead but he waited too long. Steele finished with a comfortable margin while Hill toyed with Mul lins and finished a, stride ahead of him. Afterwards, Hill admitted that he had cooked up the game by himself. Everts Beats Rival Bob Everts won the high jump from his old rival, Carter, with a leap of 6 feet, and Hubert Allen jumped 21 feet 101-2 inches to win the broad jump. Bobby Rob inson had to go to 12 feet 9 inches to w'in the pole vault but Coach Hayward decided not to let him try for a new' record for fear of injuries. Captain Ed Moeller showed his old-time form in the discus and easily won with a toss of 150 feet 6 inches. Clarence Hill covered the two-mile run in 9:47.0 and he was not pressed. He ran his usual deliberate race and finished with many yards to spare. Veteran Wins Quarter Claire McKennon proved him self tiie master of Kirk and Phil lips of Oregon State in the quar ter. After being trapped at the first turn he stretched out to win the event in :00.6. Summary: 100-yard dash Schreiber (Oi, IWWtvStlhS/'P&'tti'lty first; Lowry (O), second; Johnson (OSC), third.
