For the past . week every time any spike candi date has stuck his nose outside of McArthur • court, the sun goes behind a cloud, and things get wet. Bon KoDinson Even among the season varsity material that has been working out since last fall many over-sized waistlines and flabby muscles are in evidence —and we can’t credit all of it to “three-point-two,’’ either. Johnny Marrs could stand a few pounds off around the belt as could Gard ner Frye, sophomore weight toss er and football star. The latter can use his excess averdupois to a good advantage sometimes in get ting behind the 16-pound ball, or in whirling the di3cus; but watch out Johnny . . . 440 yards is a long way to carry 185 pounds. Wild Bill Bowerman is another speedster who could stand to drop a little weight. Last Saturday in the time trials he walked away from the quarter mile field for the first 300 yards, but after that he coasted on his momentum . . . and by the way, there was plenty of that. More laps, Bill. * * * Bobby Robinson, who a couple of years back, used to add five points to Oregon’s total in the pole vault is coaching track at Stock ton high school this spring. Jack Miller, one of Prink Callison’s sophomore football prospects, and a former student at the California prep school, recently received a letter from the old alma mater and tells me that the high school has the best prospects in years under Robinson’s guidance. Robinson is not officially coach, but does all of the work. He has been a resi dent of Stockton since last fall, when he gained considerable at tention as star halfback for the town’s American Legion football eleven. Up at the University of Wash ington everyone is marveling at the "unbreakable” javelin turned out by a man who never had a spear of this type in his hand until a few weeks ago. Because jave lins crack and break under the hard use they are given in track and field competition, Hec Ed mundson, Husky coach, asked George Poc.ck, internationally known shell builder, to try his hand at making a stronger implement. Pocock said he would try, but admitted it was a shot in the dark. The new javelin was constructed from cedar, the same wood used in shells, with four inlays of iron wood inserted to give it strength. Ironwood, almost like iron itself, is used to back an oar to prevent wearing the rowlock. * * * The finished product, meeting all requirements in size and weight, was given a severe test. It was thrown on wooden floors, against brick walls and on concrete. It was hurled so it would land flat and ulso on the opposite end from the spear, and it stood every test. There were no cracks, breaks or splinters. "It can be made stronger," was Focock’s only comment. ♦ * • ODDS AND ENDS . . . the shortest name boasted by an American sportsman is that of Ed Ey, Columbus, Ohio ... Ey is a bowler ...

Quarter Mile Crew Boasts Many Stars Marrs, Burr, Emmett, and ■ Greenough Shine Winning Mile Relay Team In Meet May 4 Is Hope of Hayward; Many Try for Squad (Editor’s Note: This is the first of a series of articles con cerning Oregon’s prospects on the track and field this spring.) By MALCOLM BAUER When Colonel Bill Hayward trots his Webfoot spikestcrs out against Oregon State in the an nual relay meet May 4, he will base most of his hopes for a repe tition of last year’s Oregon victory on the shoulders of his quarter - milers. Headed by John ny Marrs, who skirted the oval | Bill Bowerman under 50 seconds last year, a squad of eight 440 stars have been working out daily and promise to form a mile relay team that will uphold Oregon's reputation in this event. Marrs, a two-year letterman, ran in the anchor position on last year’s record-breaking mile relay quartet. He has not run against time, as yet this year, but with a little decrease in poundage, he should be the outstanding man in the Northwest in this event this season. Bowerman May Get Place Another weighty sprinter who may see some action here is big Bill Bowerman, football luminary, who has given up the moleskins for spikes. Bowerman was on the Duck track squad two years ago, but he has been in no competition since. He is also working out in the high hurdles, but his strong build and stamina make him a likely prospect in the 440. Sherwood Burr, last year letter man, \v|}l undoubtedly be back at his old post as lead-off man on the relay team. Burr, a junior, is slight of build, but his speed counts up for what he may lack in endurance. In his one time trial this spring he clocked a slow 53.2. He also broad jumps. Art "Iron Man” Holman, who specializes in nearly everything the track or field program has to offer, may not be a candidate for the 440 squad this year. Last season Holman carried the baton third, but Hayward is contem plating using him exclusively in the half-mile event this year. Another speedster who prom ises to break into the Duck point winning class is Jimmy Emmett. Emmett, a transfer from Oregon State, has done little real running this spring, but has been working out regularly. At the Beaver school last year he ran in the sec ond position on the relay squad. Greenough Outstanding Bull Wright, Tallant Greenough, Chuck McCormack, a n d Don Thompson, the last three sopho mores, will be fighting for berths on the mile quartet. Greenough has looked the best of the four in early season tryouts. Last Sat urday he broke the tape three yards ahead of Wright to win the 440 event in 53 seconds. Thomp son may be switched to the half mile event. In the freshman ranks Bob Thomas, a heavy-set, flashy run ner, looks like the pick of the field. He scored a victory in the 300-yard dash in the recent handi cap meet, breaking the tape in i front of several seasoned varsity performers. At present the Webfoot mile re j lay squad lines up with Burr in the first position, Emmett second, Wright or Greenough running third, and Marrs as anchor man. .. .. j Professors of Art Get Recognition for Work in the second annual exhibit of the work of Oregon artists, sponsored by the American Art i ists and Professional league and I held in the Portland Museum of I art, three professors in the Uni versity art school received hon ors. Lance W. Hart, assistant pro fessor of drawing and painting, received a blue ribbon for his “Portrait of a Girl," Mr. An drew Vincent, professor of art, received ribbons for his “Ore gon Landscape" and “McKenzie Snow," and Nowland B. Zane, i associate professor of design, ] for his “Sanctuary." The exhibition was held over the holidays, and the artists have just had their pieces re turned to them. These Rookies May Go Far H — JOE MEDWICK* ™ —CARDINALS — '—r—— -r~* ___a LOU FINN &YI Here is a quartet of the year’s most highly touted rookie talent. Perhaps there’s a Cobb or a Mathewson in the lot. Rowe was a sensation with Beaumont last year, while Beck won 27 games for Memphis. They are the cream of the yearling pitchers. Medwick starred for Houston, while Finney comes from Portland’s lust year champs. Both of the last named are outfielders.

Stanford Meet S ANFORD UNIVERSITY, April 17.—Probably for the first time in history, three pole vault ers who have cleared 14 feet or higher will collide in a dual meet when track and field teams of Stanford and the University of Southern California clash in the stadium here next Saturday after noon at 2:30. Bill Graber, Trojan ace, who is an applicant for a new world’s rec ord of 14 feet 4 3-8 inches, will be pitted against Mill Miller, Indian star who won the event at the 1932 Olympics and created an of ficial world's record of 14 feet 1 7-8 inches. Bud Deacon, Miller's teammate, has cleared 14 feet twice this season. Miller has failed to reach this height in only one appearance this year, while Graber has come along more slow ly and skimmed over the bar at 14 feet for the first time a week ago. Nor will the pole vault produce the only spectacular individual duel, he sprints, with Charley Parsons and Leslie Ball of South rn California and Abe Hables of Stanford, should bring out some extremely close competition. Par sons has run 9.7 in the 100 and 21.2 in the 220 this season and has not reached his limit, according to some critics. Ball, who placed fourth in the 100 at the I. C. A. A. A. A. last year, is just rounding into good condition, as is Hables. SA Durant, Okla., newspaper re ceived raw gold in a matchbox from an Elk City., Idaho, reader, who wanted to pay his subscrip tion.

The Cards scored another in the sixth and three more in the eighth to take and hold the lead. Another in the first half of the ninth cinched the game for them. Londahl’s club staged a ninth inn ing rally that netted two runs, but it failed to overcome the Card margin. Frosh Take Second The second game went entirely to the frosh. The home team fell on two Lincoln pitchers in four innings for 12 hits and nine runs. Air-tight pitching by Big Red Whittaker held the Portlanders to a mere two hits and no runs in five innings.
