Omega, Abba Dabba, Beta, and ATO Win In Softball Tourney r I Omega Ties for League Four Title as Regular Schedule Ends By G. T. SMITH Omega hall pounded out a 5 to 2 win over the badly-crippled Sigma Alpha Mu nine yesterday to gain a tie with Pi Kappa Alpha for the lead in league four as the regular schedule of the 1936 intramural softbail tourney was completed yesterday. Abba Dabba, Beta Theta Pi, and Alpha Tau Omega were victorious in the other three leagues, and will compete in a round-robin tournament for the championship with the winner of the Omega-Pi Kap contest, which is scheduled for 4 p. m. today. After the Sammies had gained a 2 to 0 lead in the second inning, Omega hall’s scrappy ballhawks came back to knot the count at 2-all in the fourth and shove over three winning runs in the final frame for a 5 to 2 win, and the right to play off for the league championship with the Pi Kaps. Vic Rosenfeld toiled on the mound for the losers, taking the place of Les Goldschmidt, regular Sammie twirler. Kidder pitched for Omega. ATO 18, Sigma Nu 3 Alpha Tau Omega's classy nine walloped Sigma Nu 18 to 2 in easy fashion, with Don Anderson, ATO speed merchant, lobbing them over the plate in order to save his arm for the championship playoffs which will start Wednesday. Sig ma Nu jumped into a short-lived lead in the first inning with one tally, but Marv Stroble’s long single scored Marshall and Scott in the ATO half to give the hotel men a 2 to 1 lead. In the second A1 Davis smashed a circuit clout, which was genuine by the way and not a succession of errors like his bingle last week, to start a five run rally. A double by Satchel Scott with the baks loaded scored Danielson and Wilson, and another double by Marv Stroble brought Scott and Marshall over the rub ber, ending the inning with the ATOs in a 7 to 1 advantage. In the third inning the victors almost batted around twice, scoring 10 runs, and gaining such a big lead that they put in their second team. Morris and Weston of these second stringers made brilliant one handed catches of line drives to outshine the regular fielders. Each team counted once in the closing session to end the game with a victory for the ATO nine by a score of 18 to 2. Belas 7, Kappa higs .> Beta Theta Pi took the cham pionship of league two with a hard-won victory over Kappa Sig ma 7 to 5. The larruping lettermen, lashed on by the verbal whip of Smokey Parke, Beta bench expert, tallied four runs in the second frame to grab an early 5 to 1 lead. The fielders relaxed too much in the closing cantos and the Kappa Sigs came dangerously close to up setting the winners. Dewey Car penter of the Betas opposed Odd Hughes on the slab, ana both men pitched good ball, Carpenter's mates being a little more expert at the plate in the opening innings. Parke, regular Beta tosser, was resting for the playoffs. Abba Dabba 16, Zeta Hal! 13 After the Abba Dabbas had piled up 11 runs in the opening inning, they became overconfident and Zeta hall almost overcame them in the final frames, the Dabbas finally emerging with a 16 to 13 win, and the pennant in league one. Home runs by Lie bowitz and Wellnitz in the first canto featured an all-around bat ting parade by the winners. Eight runs and two overthrows on second base allowed 11 Abbr Dabba runs to trickle home in this (Please turn to page four) For Good "Work and Guaranteed Materials Remember CAMPUS SHOE SHINE Across From Sigma Chi LEAGUE STANDINGS League I Won 5 4 3 Abba Dahha .

Griped, the Hil yard street lads challenged the hill men to cross bats with them at seme future date with seven gallons of amber brine going to the victors. As the sun came over the moun tains east of the campus Sunday morning. Theta Chi and Sigma Phi Epsilon’s men of the diamond were up and at it, both teams visualizing an afternoon on the millrace with soda straws. All the Sig Eps were there, bit terly determined to knock their earlier vanquishers for a roll of a keg. “Surely we will win,” thought the SPE men, bolstered with their varsity pitcher, McFadden, and be hemoth of the gridiron, Del Bjork. Before noon, Theta Chi had slapped Sigma Phi Epsilon for an other loss, the final tally being 23-7. The feature of the game was the pitching of Wee Freddie Huston for the winners and a triple out by his team mates late in the game. Noon found the SPE’s rolloing a barrel up East Nineteenth avenue and mid-afternoon found Theta Chis on the millrace smirking. Women’s Golf Matches Began I ! !

Duck Nine Loses Two to Willamette Bearcats Drub Webfoots 4.2, 9-8; Marks End of Practice Season Oregon’s varsity baseball team sucumbed twice before the on slaughts of the Willamette Bear cats at Salem Saturday and closed out its pre-season schedule with four wins and four defeats. Spec Keene's crew dropped the Web foots in the first game Saturday 4 to 2, and then overcame a seven run Oregon lead to cop the night cap 9 to 8. Don Burch held the Webfoots to six hits in the opener, and his mates found Cecie Inman's slants often enough to churn out four runs. Willamette scored first in the fourth and added three more in the seventh to salt the fray away. Howard Hobson's crew built up a big lead behind Bob Millard in the first six innings of the second tilt, only to see it fade as th<S Bear cast scored four times on four hits in the sixth, then tie the count in the seventh. An error by Bud Goodin in the eighth allowed Billy Sutton of Willamette to scamper home from third with the winning run. Jerry Gastineau, whom the Web foots shellacked, 11 to 2, here Fri day, was credited with the second victory after relieving Larry Nun nenkamp, who in turn had relieved George Erickson, the starter. Mar shall relieved Millard for Oregon, but the sophomore southpaw was charged with the defeat. No Oregon batter connected for more than one hit in the first game, but in the second Chief Mc Lean and Millard hit twice each. In the same contest Andy Hurney and John Thomas smashed doubles. Wimpy Wimbush replaced Johnny Lewis, who has been in a bad slump, at short. Ten errors committed by the Webfoots during the course of the encounters were detrimental to pitching efforts in both games.

O’Connell, could take the jinx away from the law school nine. Professor Orlando J. Hollis um pired. The game was preceeded by a parade up Alder street, led by Dick Devers.

Bill Hayward Names Relay Cinder Team Portland University, OSC Meet Ducks in Track Track Event Saturday A tentative squad of 25 Oregon varsity trackmen was selected by Bill Hayward for this Saturday's three-sided track and field relay meet between Oregon State, Uni versity of Portland and the Ducks here this Saturday. Colonel Hay ward made his selections after the running trials held last Saturday afternoon. “Additional men will probably be added to the squad later, because some of the men were unable to compete in the practice meet,” Coach Hayward stated. The trials were held in seven events, and, due to unfavorable conditions, only fair showings were turned in. Captain George Scharpf turned in the outstanding perform ance of the day when he defeated Sam McGaughey in the half-mile in the good time of 1:56. This event is Scharpf's dish, for he set a new record last year in the double oval gallop. McGaughey, who has been con sistently edging out Scharpf in the mile, saw his rival's heels amid the flying cinders, for the first time tins year. Carson Shoemake sped down the straight away to take first in both sprint events. He won the 110 yard dash in 11 seconds flat and the 220 in :22.2. Edell Bryant loped uround the cinder path to win the mile and Short Freeman took the 440. Milo Lacy took first in the high hurdles while Clyde Walker won the shot put. Marvin Janak, who could put a kangaroo to shame, outleaped all rivals to win the high jump. The freshman track squad, tu tored by Fred Nowland, turned in mediocre times. Colonel Hayward again urges all freshmen interested in track to turn out this week. Very few men have reported for the year ling track team as yet. 110-yard dash - Won by Shoe make; Patterson, second, Lindgren, third; Forbes, fourth; Wentworth, fifth.
