♦ Baseball Men To Leave for NorthTonight Seattle ill Be First Stop; Two Games Are Slated ^ith Huskies 14 Players To Accompany Reinhart on Annual Road Jaunt CONFERENCE BASEBALL STANDINGS W. L. Pet. Washington . 7 1 .875 Washington State.... 4 3 .571 Oregon State . 4 4 .500 Oregon . 3 5 .375 Idaho . 1 6 .143 The Webfoot baseball team en trains tonight for Seattle, where they begin their series of road games against the Huskies of the University of Washington Friday and Saturday. The proteges of Tub Graves have a flying start in the conference field with seven victories and only one defeat. From Seattle the Webfoots journey to Moscow for battles with the Idaho Vandals Monday and Tuesday, May 18 and 19. On Wednesday and Thursday they take on the W. S. C. Cougars at Pullman. The six games in seven days will be a real test of the team’s ability. The pitchers, espe cially, will be in line for plenty of flipper exercise. 14 Players Selected Bill Reinhart has announced that 14 men will be taken along be sides the manager, Tom Dunham. The players selected are Lee Ches ter, first base; Johnny Londahl, second base; Kermit Stevens, shortstop; Cliff Potter, third base; Brian Mimnaugh, Vern Arnett, and Kramer Barnes, outfielders; Hoy Shaneman, catcher; Ken Scales, Edmund Charles, Jack Hughes, and Dave Bloom, pitch ers; Chappie King and Slug Pal mer, all-around handy men. Mim naugh will return to Eugene after the two games at Seattle. The two recent wins over Ore gon State have made the Huskies a heavy favorite to cop the pen nant again this season. The 1930 champions swamped the Beavers Monday and Tuesday, hammering four pitchers for 18 runs during the second encounter. Season Ends May 30 The Oregon nine, however, has confidence in its ability to beat Washington on account of the thorough fashion in which Scales and his clubmates subdued the Huskies for eight innings Satur day, only to present them with the , game in the final round. The day I before they drove Putnam, bespec . tacled Husky pitching ace, to the ! showers, although they lost the game when Dave Bloom followed his opponent in the midst of a Washington scoring spree. The next home game will be May 29 with Oregon State. On May 30 the same two teams will wind' up the season at Corvallis. Women To Take Hike On McKenzie Sunday A hike will be held this Sunday, May 10, according to Ella Redkey, student manager of hiking. This jaunt will be the first after a two weeks rest period, occasioned by the play-day at Corvallis and Jun ior Week-end. Helen Dunshee, who will be in charge of the hike, has requested ' that all girls meet at the Women's j building at 3:30 in the afternoon. Each will bring her own lunch, and they will travel up the McKenzie river, through Springfield to the foot of Mt. Baldy, eating the lunch es there and returning at nightfall. Petition Dances Early, Says Dean of Women j The dean of women’s office calls attention to the fact that dance petitions must be in a week before the dance is scheduled to I take place. A number of the newly appointed social chairmen have failed to realize this. The | petition is required in addition to scheduling the dance on the social calendar.

Six games in seven days are to be played. The first stop will be at Seattle tomorrow and Sat urday for two more skirmishes with the title-bound Huskies. Then after a rest Sunday, the team will battle four days straight, first with the Vandals and finally with the Cougars. May Break Even— If the Oregon club gets an even break in games won and lost on its trip, that’s all that can be expect ed. The pitching staff as well as all other departments of the team would have to be functioning per fectly to do any better. Consider ing what has happened in the first half of the season which is just over, we can hope for improvement, but should not expect too much. The only strength the team has shown so far has been in hitting. But while the fellows have scored enough runs to win twice as many games as they have, they managed to kick in enough so that the other team couldn’t lose. Scales Improves— Given a little support in the field, the two regular pitchers, Dave Bloom and Ken Scales, should Colonial HELD OVER TODAY ONLY HOWARD HUGHE'S fc ADOLPHE 9 MENJOU MARY BRIAN It'S cra^S t\ve net FBI. A. SAT. Comes “Reducing” get a victory or so apiece. Scales, especially, has improved decidedly. His pitching performance against the Huskies in the las t game here, until1 the fatal ninth inning, the disaster of which wasn't his fault, was about the best of the league so far. We can’t think of any oth er pitcher who has gone 8 innings allowing only one run. Others Inexperienced— Scales and Bloom, who have done most of the pitching so far, can’t be figured to handle more than about half of the coming contests. Ed Charles and Jack Hughes, the other two hurlers are both inex perienced and so far have not showed very much. Just how Rein hart will get by those last two games with Washington State is hard to guess. Another good hurl er is certainly needed. * * * M aclS aught on's Driving— Malcolm McNaughton, of Port land and also now of Stanford, who is ranking number one man on the Card team, has the reputation of being one of the longest drivers in golfdom. His drives from the tee are accustomed to traveling 300 yards. McNaughton, however, will have strong competition when he meets George Will for the cham pionship. George not only hits the ball hard, too, but straight. And this factor on the narrow fairways of the club is of supreme value. It's going to be mighty interesting, this golf match.

Batting Averages Show 8 Webfoots Above .300 Mark Arnett Is Nominal Leader; Londalil Heads List Of Regulars The Webfoot batting leader at present is Vern Arnett, pitcher outfielder, who has plaster out five safe blows in ten official times at bat for an even .500 average. The regular with the highest average, however, is Johnny Londahl, the blond second sacker. Johnny is pounding the apple at a .429 clip. Brian Mimnaugh, student body prexy-elect and regular right field er, is tied with Kermit Stevens, shortstop, in number of runs scored. Each Duck player has nine to his credit. Ranking next to Londahl, the heaviest Oregon sluggers in .order of their averages are Dave Bloom, Mimnaugh, and Lee Chester. With eight batters hitting over .300 the offensive part Oregon's playing is better than usual. How ever, the totals may shrink during the swing northward which leads off with a tussle on the Husky diamond at Seattle tomorrow and includes separate series with Washington, Idaho, and Washing ton State.

Virgil Scheiber, who has been j recuperating from a strained ten- ; don, staged a great comeback yes terday by winning the 100 and gained a place on the squad. Schei ber, Paul Starr, and Paul Bale finished in the order named with not more than six inches between the three. The time was not an nounced. Gloom Spreads A nice, dark shadow of gloom was spread yesterday as Coach Hayward related the loss of sev eral of his stars. Ed Moeller, star discus hurler, has a bad leg and will be far from his best Satur- ' day; A1 Edwards, one of Oregon's few javelin throwers, turned out yesterday for the first time in weeks; and to top it all, Bobby Robinson, counted on for sure points in the pole-vault, developed a bad knee. He will make the trip, however, and should be able to beat out the Husky vaulters, crippled as he is. All the above statements are vouched for by Hayward as the authentic lowdown and not merely the usual pre-game sob story. Hayward is not the coach to spread false talks about his men. Weak in Field Events Oregon’s chief weakness will be in the field events. A scarcity of men has proved to be a great handicap, despite the fact that the men now out are' point winners in their events. The complete list of men mak ing the trip and the events in which they will be entered; 100-yard dash—Scheiber, Starr. 220-yard dash—Bale, Starr. 440-yard—Marrs, Dolloff. 880-yard—Moran, Holman. Mile—Hill. Two-mile run—Hall, Steele. High hurdles—Allen, Siegmund. Low hurdles—Holman, S i e g mund. High jump—Palmer. Broad jump—Allen, Holman. Pole-vault—Robinson. Shot-put—Stadelman, Moeller. Discus—Moeller, Zane. Javelin—Palmer, Edwards. Mile relay—Marrs, Holman, Dol loff, Rollwage. HE DOESN’T BUYGASFROMUS Keep Your Car In Condition USE RICHLUBE OILS AND RICHFIELD GAS OREGON Service Station AL KNOWLTON Baseball Practice Hard on Windows, Official’s Opinion One hundred dollars in one month for broken windows on the campus is the next thing to the last straw which broke the cam el's back, according to Mr. G. E. York, superintendent of building and grounds on the campus, and he urges that measures be taken to curb this excessive breakage rate. The larger part of this breakage, which occurred during April, is contributed by Mr. York, to the opening of spring baseball prac tice among amateurs who show a marked degree of carelessness in regard to the place they select in which to practice. As a typical example he cites the case of a group taking some pictures near the arts building which cost the University $2.50 because in pbsing for the picture a baseball was thrown through one of the large windows. The distribution of breakage covers a wide area, Mr. York said, but is more predominant around the men's houses, which would tend to prove hi, ; ention that base ball practice is the major cause. He asks that the proper authori ties take measures to regulate the practice places of the baseball fans and asks that they refrain from using windows as back-stops in all cases.
