The Emerald ♦ SCORE BOARD By Bruce Hamby Inasmuch as this is exclusively a freshman edition of the Emerald it seems that it would be a most suitable time for a brief review of ?. freshman athlet § ics during the * past year. Each / year brings a new crop of prom ising e x - p r e p stars — “all stars,” from the length of the Pa c i f i c coast. A Cullison great number of them fail to live up to advance no tices, others don’t remain in school, but some stand out as certain ma terial for future varsity teams. And this past year has been far from an exception. * * * No review would be complete without a list of outstanding men. Starting off with the first sport of the year, football, we find that the names of Joe Lillard, Mark Temple, and Mike Mikulak seem to have appeared most frequently. Lillard, well, little needs be said about him. As a triple-threat back he stood out among all coast frosh. Temple was another half who stood out due to his spirited play. Mi kulak, an end last fall but now a fullback, was the terror of oppos ing backs. Winter has set in and we find a large group of yearling hoop as pirants, again under the guidance of Prink Callison, drilling in the Igloo. Joe Lillard again stands out in this sport. As center, he was out-jumped by none and his bul let-like passes dazzled his oppon ents. Jack Robertson, Don Watts, j and Ike Donin are three others who j will make themselves known in the ' next three yea.rs. Vying in favor with basketballj last winter was swimming. Three freshmen stand out because of rec ord-breaking performances. Gor don Corson, Merwin Rodda, and Don Stevenson formed the nucleus of the squad. Corson and Rodda broke dual meet records against the rooks and Stevenson holds the Pacific coast freshman record in the 440-yard free style. Corson is regarded as a sure varsity pros pect. * * * With the advent of warmer, weather in the spring, sports j boomed and more yearlings turned; out—now for baseball, track, golf, and tennis. All four sports are still in progress but still, several j stand out on each squad. Perhaps the outstanding freshman aggre gation of the year is the tennis squad. Composed of Don Lewis, Bob Johnson, and Dick Gold thwaite, all former Portland court aces, and Jim Edmiston, southern Oregon champion, ,the yearlings have swept every opponent. All four seem to be sure prospects for next year's varsity. * * * I Spring football practice has hin-1 dered both Callison and Bill Hay-\ ward in baseball and track. A! number of former high school sprint and diamond stars were | hard at work on the gridiron and i I Pi Kaps Nose Out Sigma Chi Team j In Big Ball Game By DOT WILLIAMS At 1 o’clock this afternoon a I thrilling baseball game was played I by the Sigma Chis and the Pi Kappa Alphas. This was a benefit game, so both houses are deserv ing of much credit—it was for the benefit of the chance passer-by. The Sigma Chi nine was made up of 10 players, half of whom I were captains. For the Pi Kaps the outstanding players were, if loud voices are to be any means of judging, Coupe letti,' Moore, Yerkovitch, Miller. Quinn, and Ohler. Only captains are listed for the Sigma Chis. They were: Brown, Firpo, Esty, Chris tensen, Goulet, Nigh, Stevens, Will, and Red Wilson. The game ended in an upheaval, with a score of 11-9, approxi mately, in favor of the Pi Kaps. Highlights of the Game The “Sigma Chi housemother” was not playing today, as she re cently fell and broke her leg and is now up for repairs. The boys expressed great regret. Helen Chaney was present with her Gerlinger cup, the contents of which were to be awarded to the winner. Due to the confusion in the shack, the reporter was un able to ascertain just what the contents were. Anyway, the Pi Kaps were generous and divided. were unable to turn out for a sec ond sport. Among the most prom ising track and field men are Frank Anderson, lanky miler, and regarded by Hayward as second only to Hill in that event; Norm Daniels and Bob Voegtly, pole vaulters; and a newcomer whom Ha.yward thinks may develop into a good hurdler, Mason McCoy. On the diamond Harry McCall, first j baseman; Ike Donin, pitcher, and perhaps any of the infield men, Vail, Goldthwaite, and Robertson, may see varsity action in the next year. The golf team has only partici pated in one match, that an over whelming victory over the rooks. Dick Near, a certain varsity golfer next year, Bill Manning, Henry Jayne, and Don Olson make up the team. In commenting on this year’s freshman sports, it is interesting to note the result of a year's find with the rooks. At present the frosh are four up in victories. In football and basketball the series were split; with half of the baseball se ries over the series stand even; in Swimming and golf the frosh have four wins, with return matches due in tennis and golf; and the rooks have a victory in track. Lora Webb Receives Award Lora Webb, senior in business administration, was awarded the Phi Chi Theta key at a formal din ner held at the Anchorage Wednes day evening. The key is awarded on a basis of high scholarship and personality. Last year Lucille Cor nutt won the key. IB DANCE SATURDAY NITE Cocoanut Grove Frosh Track Squad Faces Rooks Today j Annual Meet To Be Held j At'Corvallis; 26 Men Make Trip Beaver Yearlings Favored To Win; Hayward Pessimistic — Bill Hayward's yearling track and field squad will participate in i their one and only meet of the sea j son when they face the Oregon State rooks this afternoon on Bell field, Corvallis. Twenty-six men will make the trip. Prospects for winning the meet are low, very low, indeed, accord ing to Hayward. Two first places, and he's not sure what they will be, are the limit of the mentor's opti mism. In the dual relays the rooks swept every event. Frosh Have Some Chance Events in which the frosh have some cliance of beating out Lou Stiner’s powerful rook aggrega tion seem to be either the pole vault or hurdles. Norm Daniels, Irv Huesner and Bob Voegtly are all experienced vaulters and John Blew and Mason McCoy in the low and high hurdles have made some fair pre-season times. Skeet O’Conneli, rormer Port land ace, is expected to take the 100, 200 and broad jump for the rooks and Norm Twitchell either the 440 or half-mile. Joslin of the rooks looks like a certain winner in the shot-put and Anderson should take the javelin. Entries Listed The entries for the frosh: 100-yard dash—Siegrist, Wright, Pennington, Blew. 200-yard dash—-Siegrist, Wright, Pennington, Blew. 440-yard—Wright, Price, Weed, Howlett, DePittard. - Half-mile — Hammond, Nunn, Gevurtz.
