Frosh Track Team
Fights Rooks on Even
Terms, Loses 63-59
Under-rated Duck ling;
Surprise Experts Witli
Fine Showing in Mee!
On Hayward Field
A fighting University of Oregor
frosh track and field team went
down to defeat, 59 to 63, before
the powerful Oregon State Rooks
in a dual meet yesterday on Hay
ward field.
The Rooks were strong favorites
to win by a large margin, but the
Ducklings came through to take
seven of 14 first places. Although
the frosh were losers in actual
points, they gained a moral vic
tory. Ineligibility kept the Frosh
from entering the regular pole
vaulter, thereby giving the Or
ange Babes three places in that
event.
Brisk W ind Hinders
Under the able handling of Fred
Nowland, the Ducklings took place
after place that the Rooks were
doped to take. A brisk wind pre
vented any fast times.
Bob Leslie and Bill Hoyer of
Oregon State had everything their
own way in the 100-yard dash,
taking first and second. Vaughn
and Currie, Frosh sprint men, fin
ished third in a dead heat. Hoyer
beat his teammate, Leslie, to win
the 220-yard event. Carlson of the
Frosh running third.
Marty Wins Twice
Ben Marty of the Ducklings, had
another field day at the jumping
pits. The nimble footed Duckling
copped a first in the high and
broad jumps. Jack Berry , red
haired Frosh entrant took second
but pulled a muscle that kept him
on the bench the rest of the day.
Jim Schriver, brilliant Rook
440-yard man, won the quarter in
:52.3 and later added' to his laur
els by running anchor man for
the winning yearling mile relay
team.
The midget Rook half-miler, Pi
soro, pulled a surprise- by gallop
ing around the oval twice to win
in 2:04.7. The mile run was eas
ily taken by Don Barker and
Crawford Lyle, Frosh distance
men. Lyle finished a stride behind
the speed-burning Barker.
Second in Hurdles
The Frosh took second place in
both the high and low hurdles.
Weston, stocky hurdle man, was
responsible for the unexpected
points in the high and low sticks.
Harry Adams heaved the spear a
winning distance of 170 feet 9
inches. The best that Morrison,
Rook javelin man, could do was
174 feet lk inches. Pat Foley, di
minutive Frosh spear man, made
a third best toss of 156 feet 3
inches.
Blackman and Strohecker
teamed up to take care of the dis
cus and shot events. Strohecker
claimed a first in the plate heav
ing event and Blackman took a
second. Blackman won a second
in the shot put.
Summary:

Gamma Massacres
Alpha Hall, 39-11
Gamma hall’s defending cham
pions, defeated hy Omega in the
inter-dormitory league Thursday
night, wreaked their wrath on
Alpha last night. The Gamma
sluggers made a merry-go-round
of the base paths and ran up a
39-to-ll score on the losers in five
innings of softball comedy.
Gamma scored 14 runs in the
fourth inning and tallied with
monotonous regularity in* every
frame. Chuck Patterson twirled
for the winners and didn't have to
worry about how many hits he
allowed. Patterson and Marty were
the heavy stickers. Close was the
mistreated Alpha moundsman.
Omega stayed in the running
with a 14-to-10 win over Zeta.
Four home runs featured a fray
which was close throughout. Masa
Kato clouted for the circuit for the
winners and Jerry Cameron. Cece
Walden, and Pitcher Gene Truby
hit for all the sacks for Zeta.
Kidder pitched for Omega and

baseball team to an ll-to-4 win at
Corvallis yesterday afternoon.

Lee. Johnny Coomler started for
the Frosh but was relieved by Gail

Oregon's varsity baseball team,

season to a close with three games
against Oregon State next week.
The teams play here in a make

The Webfoots have won eight
games and lost five and are rest

The Cougars have four contests,

The northern division baseball
season won't reach the end of the
trail until next week, but the Em
erald reaches the end of the trail
today, and today the sports staff
presents its all northern division
team.
Fourteen men—-four outfielders,
five infielders, two catchers, and
three pitchers have been chosen.
These men would make a complete
college squad. Oregon, Washing
ton, and Washington State draw
five places each on the mythical
ball club and Idaho follows with
two. No attempt was made to ap
portion the players evenly between
the teams.
Many flood Southpaws
Good pitchers, especially south
paws, were handing around the
various ball yards in profusion this
season, and it was a difficult task
to single out a trio for all-star
honors. Oregon’s Bob Millard wins
first place on the all-star with
his five straight victories, and
Jack Daly of Washington, another
southpaw, is probably next in line.
The third position goes to Bob Kin
naman, Washington State's un
defeated righthander. Mel Marlowe
of Washington State pitched out
standing ball, but necessity of hav
ing at least one right-handed
chucker on the crew crowds out
the cocky Cougar portsider.
Ken Fields of Washington State
has a corner on the catching
market, and the other backstop
post goes to Oregon’s Chief Mc
Lean. McLean can perform at any
position on the diamond and would
Youthful Frosh
Enters Pup in
'Neivs9 Pet Parade
Among the 600 kiddies who will
proudly parade down Willamette
street this morning will be Bill
Robert, University freshman.
“I'm not going to Mortar Board,
so I've gotta have some repast for
the day," Bill announced as he
strolled into the Morning News
office last night to register his
puppy
“I s'pose some will think it queer
for me to enter my pup,” Bill re
marked, "but I think I stand a
swell chance of winning one of
those Mickey Mice things in the
winder there.”
Bill described his entry as a
two-months-old white collie pup.
“Her name is ‘Duchess,’ and she
is our new fraternity mascot,” he
explained.
Bill is 18 years old.
hi. ni its a uuiuy man as
well as a receiver.
Outstanding infielders were few,
but competition between better
than-average ball players is close
at every position in the inner
circle.
Kramer at First
Bill Kramer of Idaho gets the
call on a hair-line decision over
Bill Courtney of Oregon, Corky
Carlson of Washington State, and
Earl Conkling of Oregon State,
all of whom are valuable men.
Kramer is a classy fielder around
the initial sack, but Courtney, des
pite lack of height, is a first rate
man in the field. Carlson and
Conkling are hard hitters as well
as capable fielders.
Bishop of Washington State
crowds out Rich of Washington at
second in another choice made
with fingers crossed. Willie Hew
son, Washington shortstop, has the
edge on Wally Geraghty of Idaho
and Norman Worthley of Oregon
State. Oregon’s clubbing Bud
Goodin has battled himself into a
spot at third base, edging out Max
Schoening of Washington State,
who takes the utility infield post.
Bill Katsilometes, Idaho's Greek
center fielder, is the class of all
the outfielders and many critics
consider him the best all-around
ball player in the circuit. Andy
Hurney, the clouting Webfoot,
takes the right field position, and
left field goes to little Wendell
Nc-wcombe of Washington, the lad
who rattles the boards with two
strikes on him. Ed Loverich, Wash
ington’s basketeer center-fielder,
gains the nod over Ed Goddard of
the Cougars for the utility outfield
berth.

Hayward to Accompany
Team to Corvallis for
Final Dual Meet
A powerful team of 28 Univer
sity of Oregon trackmen leaves at
noon today for Corvallis where it
will meet Grant Swan's lowly
Beavers on Bell field in a dual
track and field meet this after
noon.
Despite his recent serious illness,
Bill Hayward may accompany his
boys today. He will not indulge in
his usual apparently aimless pac
ing around the field of battle how
ever, for weakness will necessitate
that he give his directions from a
car drawn up alongside the track.
No Workouts at OSC
No practice sessions have been
held at the State college this week,
due to heavy rainfall. Coach Swan
indicated that several days lay-off
might help the Beavers. “We can’t
get any worse,” moaned the
gloomy mentor.
As this is the last chance for
many of the Webfoot trackmen to
win their letters, cutthroat com
petition will probably be the bill
of fare on the track and field
today.
