OREGON SPORTS CREW RACE TODAY California’s Bears and Washing ton’s Huskies race on lake Wash ington at Seattle today in the an nual renewal of their crew rivalry. Track Tryouts W ill Be Held Today To Determine Entries Five Track Events To Be Ran Off at 2 o'Clock This Afternoon From his bed, where he has been confined for the last few days be cause of illness, Colonel William L. Hayward, track coach, last night issued a call for all of his track athletes to meet in the first competitive tryouts since the in tramural meet more than a month ago. The meet will be held this afternoon at 2 o’clock at Hayward field, and aspirants for both the freshman and varsity squads will compete. The program will consist only of track events, which number five in all; the 100-yard dash, the 220 yard dash, the 440-yard dash; and the two longer runs, the 880 and the mile. In the short distances Paul Starr and Paul Bale will be the pick of the field. Only one fresh man, Art Clarkson, is expected to press these two lettermen. A host of fast men will line up against one another in the 440-yard dash. Four speedsters, Marrs, Rollwage, Holman, and Dolloff, who composed the crack Webfoot mile relay team last, will be on hand. Talent Greenough, a fresh man, has been doing well at this distance so far this year, and should make a bid for a place among the leaders. Oregon’s chances in the quarter look good this year, and with two weeks to go before the first meet of the sea son, the above cinder men should be making the circuit in record time. Oregon’s chances in the 880 yard run took a severe setback last week when it was announced that Tom Moran, crack half-miler would be unable to run for the remainder of the season due to a weak heart. Moran, a two-year letterman, had been looking good in early workouts this spring, and his loss will seriously handicap Colonel Bill’s squad this year. Another ranking man in the half-mile event, Harold Myers, freshman runner, was forced out of competition at the first of this term because of eye trouble. With these two stellar performers out, the field is left open for the devel opment of new material in this event. Bob Hunter and Bob Wagner, the latter a freshman, look to be the best in the entries for the mile run. Hunter has turned in some fast times already this year, and Cards, Athletics Slated To Repeat In Pennant Race NEW YORK, April 8.—(AP) — For the third successive year, the champion St. Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Athletics have the backing of the majority of experts to win the major league baseball pennant races. / The most striking feature of the sixth annual Associated Press pen nant poll, compiled today, is the apparent conviction it will be main ly a two club contest in each cir cuit. The two Manhattan entries, the Giants and Yankees, are named as the only real challengers to the present rulers of baseball’s big league roosts. OCCIDENTAL FAVORED LOS ANGELES, April 8.—Occi dental track and field athletics may add an actual victory to their moral victory over the Bruins in football last fall when they meet U. C. L. A. at the Westwood cam pus on Saturday afternoon. The Tigers, champions of the Southern California conference, are expected to score heavily in the field program but are scheduled to run into considerable competition in the track events. BRUIN TEAM LEAVES LOS ANGELES, April 8.—Faced with a heavy five-day schedule, a squad of sixteen Bruin baseball players, Coach Alvin R. Montgom ery, and a student manager, will leave here by boat tonight for the annual tour of schools in the San Francisco bay district. Games will be played with San Francisco uni versity, Santa Clara, St. Mary’s, California and Stanford, beginning on Monday. Wagner has always been right on his heels. Other promising athletes have been turning out daily and may upset some of the seeded stars this afternoon. Hayward wants all those who have been working out regularly to be on hand slightly before the hour today so that the meet can begin sharply at 2 o’clock. He hopes by this meet to get a line on the probable entries for the opening meet of the season, the Oregon-Oregon State relays, to be held at Eugene April 23.

(Dink) Temple ton lies bed-ridden in a San Francisco hospital. He has been there almost half a year and probably will remain at least that long before he is released. He is suffering from arthritis, a disease com mon to older persons but unusual to one as young as Dink, who is only in his low 30’s. Arthritis is an infection of the joints, as painful as it is serious. All through the long winter Dink has suffered from it For a considerable time he was a very sick young man. Only in recent weeks has be begun to take a turn for the better. Every sports follower on the Pacific slope hoper for the speedy recovery of Dink Templeton. As head track coach at Stanford university, and be fore that as an all-around athlete in the Cardinal and White, Dink made a host of friends. His re covery might mean track defeats for Stanford's Dick Templeton adversaries on the track, but all the Indians’ opponents stand united in praying that he will be a well man soon. But not even the pain of arthritis and the possibility of being a cripple the rest of his life has broken Dink Templeton's spirit. His heart is still out on the track field at Stanford. Every time the Stan ford boys run a race Dink runs it with them. In the little white painted bedroom at the San Francisco hospital he visualizes every move his men make. The results of all the meets are telephoned to his bedside and he suffers with the Stanford lads in their defeats and glories with them in their victories. There is no more stirring example of Dink Templeton's courage in the face of adversity than that which took place before Ben East man's epic quarter-mile run two weeks ago. Stanford was meeting the Los Angeles athletic club in an unimportant dual meet at Palo Alto when the incident occurred.. * * * It was just before the 440 and the runners were ready to go up to the post. Suddenly a field telephone jingled. Ben Eastman was wanted. The blond runner jogged up to the stand and picked up the receiver. Thirty-five miles away Dink Templeton was talking to him. “Ben, this is Dink. Cool down, kid. Don’t get excited. Remember this is just another race. Run that first 220 yards like you never ran before. But don’t strain. The rest will take care of itself.” Ben replied, “Yes, coach,” and calmly hung up the receiver. Dink's words of advice were ringing in Ben’s ears like train bells when he started the race. He got away badly, outdistanced the pack 20 yards out, and was off like a bullet out of a gun. Around the track he jogged, coming into the stretch like an express train. Forty-six and four-tenths seconds after he had started, he snapped the white tape. The timers huddled eagerly. It was a new world’s record, beating the mark Ted Meredith established for the Univrsity of Penn sylvania back in 1916. Those of the Stanford track team were jubilant over Eastman’s success, but not more so than the pale man in the hospital at San Francisco. “I knew it, I knew it!” he cried over and over ugain after the result had been telephoned to him. That s the kind of man Dink Templeton is. Ben's great race was more of a tonic to him than a dozen doctor’s prescriptions. A few more performances like that and Dink will be well once more. Insofar as Dink Templeton is concerned, a record a day keeps the doctor away. When he was playing football at Stanford, Dink was the best punter in the country. His high, accurate spirals won more than one game for the Cardinal and White. He kicked almost as fast as Johnny Kitzmiller and seldom were one of his boots even partially blocked. * sl: sj; Speaking ot punters, who 11 function in this highly important department for the Oregon varsity in the fall? Last night Prink Callison had Elmer (the Great) Brown, Bill Bowerman and Joe Walsh all testing their skill. In addition to these lads there will be Mark Temple and Leighton Gee, who did all the regular punting last year, helped no^ and then by Captain Schulz. Ail three lads were doing weU last night, although a fairly stiff breeze helped most of their boots. Walsh and Brown both are ac credited punters, but kicking ’em is something new for Bill Bower man. His sole duty last year after Doc Spears had moved him into the haekfield was to bloc k for the hall-luggers. 32 College Boxers Win Tryout Places STATE COLLEGE, Pa., April 8 — (AP)- Thirty-two college war riors proved their right tonight to places in the Olympic boxing try out lists by reaching the semi final round of the first national collegiate boxing championship tournament. By the rules of the tournament, all semi-finalists qualify auto matically' for the Olympic tryouts in San Francisco, July 20, 21, and 23, but the national collegiate committee, meeting tomorrow, may decide to choose 32 qualifiers for the tryouts without strict adher ence to the original plan. In all 20 colleges and universi ties qualified men for the semi finals in probably the greatest collection of college boxers ever brought together for a single tour nament. Penn State led the list with five men in the semi-finals to be staged tomorrow afternoon. The finals are listed for tomorrow night. HOPEWELL OFFICIAL SAYS VENGEANCE IS MOTIVE (Continued from I’ayc One) burned over two square miles near the Lindbergh estate Tuesday. Williamson said mountaineers who helped extinguish a simiiar fire last autumn had complained they received no money for their work. "They were pretty sore,” he said, "at not being paid, and maybe had ] a hand in the kidnaping from a I vengeance motive. They may have even set the second fire out of .spite.” In his 9 p. m. bulletin, however, Col. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, superintendent of state police, said it was not believed the fire “was set vindictively nor that it may have been the work of the person or persons who kidnaped the baby.” In his afternoon bulletin Schwarzkopf had said his men were investigating the blaze, a cir cumstance that appeared to lend some support to Williamson’s the ory. Tonight, however, Schwarz kopf said the investigation was merely in line with routine duty. MAXWELL ADAMS TO TAKE OHIO PASTORSHIP (Continual from I'tifjc One) member of our group dealing with student problems. We regret his leaving very much, for he has made a considerable contribution to the life of the tjniversity stu dents. We are glad, however, to hear that he is getting this greater opportunity.” In his new pastorship Mr. Adams will again be doing con siderable work among college stu dents, for the Northminster church in Columbus is located but two blocks from the Ohio State university. Not only will he be in charge of all University work, but the congregation of his new church will be composed largely of students and faculty members o£ the Ohio university. It is expected that Mr. and Mrs. Adams, with their small daughter, Joan, will leave Eugene about July 1, | College Oarsmen To Battle Today In Crew Classic California and Washington To Vie in 29th Rare At Seattle SEATTLE, April 8—(API—The 29th renewal of the Pacific Coast crew classic on the fickle waters of Lake Washington here tomor row will see the powerful sweep swingers of California and Wash ington open an Olympic year of rowing in the U. S. Close to 100,000 persons from all parts of the Pacific Northwest were expected to swarm to the new three-mile course on the pic turesque lake to watch the three race regatta, one of the most colorful and dramatic spectacles in the West. An alert exclusive group gained the 1,500 seats on the first obser vation train to -ever follow the events cn the Pacific Coast. The course was shifted from the south to the north end of the lake to take advantage of railroad tracks running along the shore the full length of the racing lanes. A stinging, raw wind that hin dered Washington workouts through most of the training sea son was still on hand today and the Seattle weather bureau re ported it would likely blow up treacherous white caps tomorrow, Intermittent rain also was pre dicted presaging anything but good conditions for the regatta. The wind was expected to come out of the southeast, blowing down the course with the shells, how ever. Experts considered the three mile varsity race a toss-up, picked the Washington Huskies to win the three - mile junior - varsity event, and gave the California freshman boat the edge in the twc-mile yearling opener.

Intramural Tennis and Golf Tourneys To Start Monday Headaches Held Boon to Golfer by U of Illinois Prof URBANA, 111., April 8.—(API — If you wish to play a good game of golf, just work up a headache and maybe you'll put old man par where “he" belongs. The golf player with a headache has the advantage over his com panion who feels “fit as a fiddle,” Dr. Coleman H. Griffith, psycho logical research director of athlet ics at the University of Illinois said today. His explanation: “This headache keeps him from pressing and from experimenting. He is out merely to play the game and this means he is out to do that which he has been most in the hab it of doing. “If a man goes into golf feeling fine, either of two things may hap pen. He may start t& make each hole in one and thus be guilty of pressing: or he may experiment. Pressing breaks up timing and rhythm; experimenting may lead to disaster. “The man who has a headache or is not at his best, will not be guilty of pressing. He will play his natural game.
