UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, SATURDAY, APRIL 11, 1936 1 Linheid Shellaeks Oregon, ll-6;Helser Hurls 6-Hit Ball Duck Batters Help less Before Good Pitching Of Wildcat; Millard Charged With Loss University of Oregon baseball teams are just Duck soup for Roy Helser, Linfield college lefthander. Last spring Helser held the Web foots fo one measly little hit in winning 7 to 1. Yesterday on Anonymous field he was kind enough to dole out six bingles, but when it really mattered he had the Ducks eating out of his hand and Linfield picked off an easy ll-to-6 victory. Howard Hobson will take his club to McMinnville for a return game this afternoon, and with Don McFadden scheduled for mound duty, the Ducks may reverse the tables on the Wildcats. Oregon Scores in First After Oregon scored a run in the first inning yesterday the stingy Mr. Helser and his hard hitting teammates jumped into the saddle and piled up the score. Lefty Bob Millard and his successor, Bill Marshall, pitched fair ball for the Webfoots, but bad luck on pop flies that got away over the in field and went for hits and a bit of woozy fielding spelled their doom. Linfield’s total of hits off the two chuckers was 14. Helser permitted only two hits in the first seven innings and it toas only his generosity in the final pair of frames that brought Ore gon’s total to a half dozen. He struck out eight, most of them with men on bases, and had, in general, a merry afternoon. McLean Lams Triple Bing Crosbie, breaking in at left field, drew the first of his three walks in the Oregon half of the first, and when Chief McLean slammed a tremendous triple into right field to score him, it looked as if Helser might be in for rough sledding. Not so, however, for non chalant Roy whiffed Lewis and got Hurney on a roller to first. Oregon didn't threaten again until the sixth, when Linfield had a 7-to-l lead. Pitcher Helser scored Linfield’s first run himself, after reaching base on Hurney’s error. An infield out, Swensen’s infield single, and an unsuccessful fielder’s chance al lowed him to cross the rubber. Millard Lifted Hits by Swensen, Brother Mor rie Helser, and Stranz accounted for three Linfield runs in the fourth, and in the following stanza Henry Lever’s boys went to town with three more on hits by Roy Helser and Hippi, a walk and an error by BeLaunay. Hits by Cook and Bell added another tally in the sixth, and in the last half of that innig Millard was lifted for a pinch hitter. The man in the pinch was Ralph Amato, and his single to left field drove home Lewis and Hurney, who had walked, with two Oregon runs. Marshall took over the hillock and got by well enough on his promising curve pitching in the seventh, but in the eighth the Linfield batters hopped the band wagon again and piled up four runs cn three hits, two walks, and an erorr to make it a rout. Ducks Count in Ninth Hits by Bob Wimbush and John Thomas gave Oregon a run in the eighth and in the ninth the Ducks added a final pair on singles by McLean and Bud Goodin and er Phi Beta Luncheon Given for Officer Associate and alumnae members and patronesses of Phi Beta, wo men’s national music honorary, had and informal lunch for Mrs. Her bert Stevenson, national president, today at the men's dormitory. Mrs. Stevenson has been a visi tor on the campus for the past week. Mrs. F. M. Hunter, and Mrs. C. Valentine Boyer were also guests at the luncheon. If we won t give a square deal to labor, we’ll have fascism and after that revolution. — Zara du Font, kinswoman of munitions manufacturers.

Delt Tennis Team Beats Phi Psis In one of the closest and hardest fought tennis matches ,to date, the mountaineers of Delta Tau Delta downed the fighting Phi Psis, two matches to one yesterday. Sleeter and Epler polished off the first doubles match, taking the first set S-6 and the second, 6-2. In the second doubles, Swenson and Bal lah of the Delts lost their first set by the same score as their brother doubles players, but came back to take the next two sets and win the match, 8-6, 6-4, and 7-5. This match was close all of the way, with the result in doubt almost to the last point. In the singles match, Clifford, Delt freshman, dropped the first set 6-1, and it looked like an easy victory for Kroschel of the Phi Psis. However, Clifford had other ideas, and he picked up the second by a similar count. The third set ivas a honey with the score prac tically even all the way. With the :ount standing at six all, Clifford put on the pressure and took the next two games for the match and a victory for the Delt team. Moore Donates Collection to UO A tiger’s tooth, sharks’ teeth, and perfect specimens of fossil sea life are included in a large collec tion of minerals and fossils given :o the egology department by Jay Moore, son of the late E. J. Moore, former school superintendent of Lane county. The colelction includes speci mens from the bad lands of South Dakota which are perfect ex amples of mineral formation. One small round piece of brown rock contains quartz and gypsum crys tals. Another unusual item is a 3all of swallowed hair taken from a buffalo’s stomach. Arrows and spear heads of the :olIeetion were given to the an :hropology department’s museum. Scharpf Is Ideal Track Captain Has Entire Soul in Game Spring Gridders Working Hard Many Aces Out for Other Spring Activities; Eagle And Cuppoletti Help More than 40 young giants have been pushing each other around al most every afternoon since early March under the critical eye of Prink Callison, head football coach. The spring practice this year is 3f more importance than usual to the Webfoots, because of inexpe rienced material and a limited amount of time for pre-season practice this fall. The Oregon coaching staff, con sists of Prink Callison; Gene Shields, line coach; Johnny Kitz miller, backfield tutor, and has the added assistance of Bree Cuppolet ti and Alex Eagle, former Duck ices. With the added inspiration of these experts, practice has taken on an atmosphere of intense ef fort. Varsity prospects this year iack the usual listlessness of atti tude. Many of the gridders who will turn out for football this fall are ibsent from spring drill due to con flicting sports. Leonard Holland, Bill Foskett, and Chan Berry are out for track. Bud Goodin, out standing prospect for fullback this lutumn, is playing on Howard Hobson’s baseball nine. Yerby, smashing lineman of last year's frosh eleven and Cecil Walden, promising transfer from Eastern Dregon normal, are both concen :rating their interest on baseball. Later on, more stress will be laid ipon plays and the perfecting of in aerial attack. A punter to re Dlace Stan Riordan, the Webfoots’ jreat kicker of last year, is in much demand by the coaching staff. I Freshman Golf Squad Chosen The 1936 freshman golf squad ,vas anounced yesterday by the ihysical education department, rhe squad includes the following ;welve men: Doub Ramsey, Frank 3inns, Howard Hofer, Bob Speer, Liouis Cook, Victor Bakke, Harold Veston, Bob Findtner, Bob Mar in, Clair Peterson, George Camp jell, and Kirk Eldridge.

KNOCKED OUT FRED LENNART WITH ONLV FOUR PUNCHER IN A RECENT " { WEST COAST BOUT,,, V Marlene Dietrich's legs are pret ty nice, so the boys all say, but should you mention "legs” to the sober men of the cinder track, they know that you surely must mean George Scharpf, for this six footer with the million dollar legs is their captain. Last year in a meet with Wash ington State, he won the half mile in 1:54.8, and in the National Col legiate Athletic association meet in the East, he placed seventh in a field of the best half-milers in the country. Although he is only 20 years old, this year will be Cap tain George's last year of inter collegiate competition. When he was a senior at Eugene high school, he won the first race he ever ran in his life, a quarter mile. The old salt water and vin egar must have run wild in his legs, because the next year, when he was a frosh running against the rooks, he ran the 880 in 1:59.8, a record that still stands. That was his big moment. If he hadn't been practically barefooted, there is no telling what deeds he might have done that day. All he really wanted to do was to beat Oregon State’s Ernie Gug gisberg, who had shown his heels to George in high school days. | However, the race being one of I those friendly sort of affairs, some one spiked Scharpf's shoe off with only about three-fourths of a lap to go. What to do ? What to do ? The terror stricken frosh tried to run with his shoe half on, but had to kick it off. And did he highball down the cinders! His sock came off on the last 50 yRrds, but he broke the tape. He had won the race, beat Giggisberg, and set a new record. This year Scharpf is running the mile. “I've always considered it my race,” he says. His big ambi tion now is to run a fast mile and to take a shot at the 1500 meters in the Olympics. Former UO Man's (Continued from payc one) a 100,000-word novel of Oregon people and setting; the title, at present, being “Earth Angel.” This novel, which, he says, he began in the main library, attempts to authentically depict the real West from 1893 to the present. The poems accepted by Poetry Magazine are entitled "Frigid Interval,” “Lonely Man,” “Soil Mates,” “Praise for the Stars,” and “Snow in the Furrows.” The third one, “Praise for the Stars,” he wrote to express his mood as he watched the stars through the windows of his office in Friendly hall. “The Emerald,” he commented, “is superior in make-up and edi torial experssion to that of the 1920’s.” Robinson Gives (Continued from par/e one) Bill Cottrell, as Henry, hit his characterization, but missed his timing. His portrayal was convinc ing. It was interesting to watch him develop a backbone as the play progressed. He has evidently studied this part carefully. Dick Koken took over a new type of role as Lingley and really played for all it was worth. It was a pleasant surprise to watch him play blunt business magnate. Many enjoyed and remarked upon the part of Scrubby, the mysterious steward, played by Bud Winsted. Chuck Barclay struck out into new fields and came back with a prize. His role or Rev. Duke was a revelation both as written and as played. Mike Garwood, the jovial Examiner, put everyone at their ease the moment he entered. The powerful second act was easily the most effective of the three which was partially the auth or's doing and mainly the actors’ work. Act one was slow in getting under way. The late audience and a stray dog didn’t help it any, and the actors could have helped it more. Act three certainly wasn’t limited by the performers’ capabil ities; it failed to measure up to them, and although strong, did not quite reach the mark it should and doubtless will. “Outward Bound” will be pre sented again tonight, next Monday and next Friday nights. C. D. s PORT CHA By PAT FRIZZELL T Regular shortstop and lead-off man. That’s what Oregon's Joe Gordon was Thursday afternoon in the lineup of Oakland’s Pacific Coast league Acorns. And Joe came through in great, style, pounding out two hits in two of ficial trips to the plate, handling three fielding chances errorlessly, participating in a double play, and scoring a run. That kind of work means a reg ular berth for Gordon on the Acorn outfit. Bill Meyer, Oakland’s brand new manager, is considered one of the game’s most capable men at the business of handling young players, and Joe should have every chance. * * * Eddie Reishman, who broke in with Hollywood some years ago and has since been jogging around in eastern minor leagues, was the regular Oakland shortstop when the season opefted, but, judging from box seores, he has been the weak spot in the infield. Joe Gor don stepped into the shortpateh after Leishman had been lifted for a pinch hitter in Wednesday’s 15-inning battle and now Joe may be in there for keeps. The Oaks, rated a weak sister by pick 'em and hope boys before the race began, have shown amaz ing power and seem to be in no mood to relinquish their early season lead of the loop. Several of the lads played under Manager Meyers at Binghamton in the New York-Pennsylvania league (elass A) last year and they seem to be fitting perfectly into the coast picture. If Joe Gordon continues to fill the bill he’s likely to come in for a share' of league money when October rolls around. * * * Seems to be a lot of different ideas as to just what kind of a circuit Ray Koch, Gordon’s key stone mate here last spring, has been sent to by the New York Yanks, who own both Koch and Gordon. Joplin, Missouri, is the neck of the woods in which Koch will scoop up the sizzlers and dribblers this summer and it’s in the class C Western association, composed of cities in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri. Playing each day in that kind of company should be the making of Koch as a big leaguer. The Western association won’t be gin its season until around the first of May. Bobby Garretson, Oregon frosh first baseman bark in 1!)31, who has for two summers been with tile Portland Beavers, is at Nash ville in the Southern league this season. He’s merely farmed out and will be back with Portland later. The Southern plays a elass of ball almost equal to that on the coast, and if Garretson can make good with Nashville he’s definitely on the way up. * # * High school ball clubs as smooth as the one from Grant which trim med the frosh here Wednesday and then did it again at Portland yesterday come about once in a decade. That team, made up of lads who have played together in prep, summer league, and Ameri can Legion junior ball for years, seems to bristle with future col lege and professional stars. The two pitchers, Spiker and Garrett, had enough stuff and con trol to fool the Duckling batters consistently Wednesday. Wimpy Quinn and Bob Baer, the short stop-second base combination; Shimshak and Layton, outfielders, Shaw, the big catcher, Linde, another hurler, are all veterans of American Legion play. Five Grant high graduates are busting and chucking the leather apple in Oregon varsity and frosh uniforms this season, and if most of Charlie Orr’s present prep lin up doesn’t make the collegiate grade, it'll be a surprise to every railbird on the fence. Kx-Grantonians doing their bit on Howard Hobson’s roster are Bob Millard and Baric Bucknurn of the mound staff and Bing Crosbie, outfielder. On the Buck ling chili are Gale Smith al first base, and John Verby in the garden.

Webfoot Trackmen On Review Today At Hayward Field Lemon anti Green Teams Battle in Intersquad Track Competition: Rivalry Intense By BRUCE CURRIE The entire University of Oregon track squad will be on review for the first time this season when they participate in an intensive intersquad meet today on Hay ward field starting at 2 o’clock. Bill Hayward has divide his cindermen into two teams, the “Lemon'’ and the “Green.” As they appear evenily matched, the win ning team will probably be the one that gets the breaks. The track aspirants who make a good show ing in the meet will probably stand the best chances of landing spots on the varsity and frosh teams. Scharpf Captains Team George Scharpf, veteran dis tance ace of Bill Hayward's horde of varsity tracksters will captain the “Lemons.” Sam McGaughey, so far the outstanding miler on the Duck squad, wil captain the “Greens." Sprints Interesting - The 50 and 100-yard dashes will be of special interst. Carson Shoe make, sprint king of the north west, will match his burning speed with that of Frank “Squeak" Lloyd. Lloyd, only a sophomore, has already threatened Shoemake’s reign. Shoemake is conceded a vic tory in the 100-yard sprint, but many fans think that Lloyd of the “Greens” will take the shorter event. Although frosh cindermen offer no serious threat in either the sprints or the mile, Jimmy Schri ver, frosh member of the “Green ies” is conceded a good chfihce of cleaning up in the 440-yard dash. Schriver, who won over varsity men in the meet last Saturday, was champion prep miler of the state last year. Many Entrants Unknown Many of the entrants in the meet today are of unknown calibre, and major upsets in some of the favored events may ocur. Oregon’s hopes of track supremacy this season, and for next year, will be based mostly on those that burn the cinders in today’s meet. Officials for the intersquad meet are: starter, Parke; judges of the finish, Cutler, Callison, and Kitz miller; timers, Morris, Knollin, Nowland, Greenough, and Rourke; clerks of course, Siegmund, Mar shall, Farrar, and Engstrom. The complete entry list follows: 50-yard dash: “Lemon”-Shoe make, McClay, Lindgren, Fitchard, Carlson, Wentworth; “Green”— Lloyd, Pollard, Forbes, Currie, Jack Berry. 100-yard dash: Same as above. 440'-yard dash: “Lemon”—Mc Donald, Schultz, Freeman, Bur kitt; “Green”- Hall, Don Smith, Schriver, Patterson. 880-yard dash: “Lemon" Sime, Kropp, Cole; “Green” — Milier, Cody.

Jury Gives (Continued from page one) ju3t at the crucial moment of the verdict. From somewhere, some how. a coin met the floor. Emphat ic especially on bank night. It seems that neither Hender shott nor Miss Hutchinson didn't like the way the other played golf. Miss Hutchinson explained on the witness stand that the condition of the course kept them from playing a faster game, which irked Mr. Hendershott so that he requested to play through, to which the plaintiff refused. Just before the contested shot, Miss Hutchinson had strayed into a nearby gully from the fairway. Gordon Campbell, witness for de fense, testified that the provoking gully formed a blind spot with a group of trees at the top, to the angle of the spot from which Hen dershott was teeing off. The innocent bystander, Robert Marks, cool, calm and collected on the witness stand, saved Hender shott’s career from a life of crime (what's a mere $20,000 to a bank compared to Heinie's need) with his testimony as an impartial ob server from a parallel tee. Marks believes that Miss Hutchinson knew the defendant was going to drive. “I heard Mr. Hendershott’s warning cry of "fore” and protect ed myself by stepping among the trees above the gully,” stated Marks. "Miss Hutchinson who was about 30 feet away from me, had seven or eight minutes between the warning cry and the time the ball was driven, to do the same. She took no precaution.” The defendant drove. Immedi ately a hubbub arose from the gul ly. Upon rushing up, he saw Miss Hutchinson lying unconscious upon the ground, and agitatedly shouted, "Oh, I didn’t mean to kill her!” An ambulance arrived and carried the unconscious girl away for a three weeks’ stay in the hos pital. So testified Ralph Bailey, one of the foursome. Pleadings for the plaintiff be fore the student jury of 3 2, by her counsel, Miss Dorothy Kliks and James G. Smith, was based mainly upon the testimony of the doctor, Kendall Lottridge, law student who suddenly accomplished a med ical degree. The condition of the plaintiff which was pronounced permanent. She is a victim of headaches, nervousness and an in ability to settle down to any work except in the morning. This time condition was brought out by Robert Hunter, counsel for defense. It allows her freedom enough to go to school. George Hibbard was the other defense counsel. Hunter appealed to the jury on the ground that Hendershott had given fair warning and that the fairway was clear. Besides, would they ruin this boy’s life by making him pay so dearly for this one in stance ? The jury swaggered out to re turn in twenty minutes with the aformentioned verdict. Hearsay has it that observant eyes detected telltale crumbs of hot-dog-bun origin upon a jury member when they returned from their hideout. Jury members were Nancy Archbold, Robert DeArmond, Fran ces Spence, Frank Herin, Frances Olsen, Ed Robbins, Nancy Collens, ‘Adelyn Shields, William Russell, Evelyn Shields, Alton Haakanson, Alice Ann Thomas.
