PINK Lemon-Aid By JOHN PINK Today the subject will be color. Some got it and others ain’t—and never will. But if you saw Satur day’s ball game, and Friday's too, there can be no doubt in your mind that one gentleman in these parts has the old razz-ma-tazz. Walking up and down along the sidelines, giving and taking with the crowd— who ate it up—wandering all over the diamond was big Forrest Two good, coach of the Vandals, ex-big leaguer, and well versed in the art of crowd heckling, and pleasing. The bleachers in back of first baseline were in a continual up roar as the campus Joe Millers dug down deep, and let fly with loud and raucous voices, and Forrest, on the bench, off the bench, patting a player on the back, arguing—with arms waving—with the umpire, matched the bleachers word for word. For my part I liked it. The game was not too exciting and attention commanding and this sidelight sup plied a rather dull ball game with a spark that everyone enjoyed. I think there was more noise, chat ter and pep displayed Satuday than any game this season and Two good's antics were greatly respon sible for that life. If I've heard correctly the portly Buck Bailey, who leads his Cou gars here tomorrow and Thursday is liberally endowed with much the same stuff. Vociferous and gigan tic—all 240 odd pounds of him— Buck should keep the bleacher boys and girls in a dither. And with the close games, that these should be, there should be all of the color, ex citement and sparkle of a day at the big leagues. When Bill Hayward said that his Duck cinder pathers would get only 47 points against Washington sev eral days before the debacle, the rail birds were inclined to scoff and consider the statement a bit of pre-meet strategy. But Bill could n’t have figured it much closer for his Webfoots tallied exactly 46 counters against the powerful Hus kies. One reason for the lack of running ability so far this spring can be attributed to the weather, which has been too disagreeable to ' allow any concentrated work on j speed or short sprints. No one can pull a muscle or strain a tendon easier than a runner trying too hard on a cold day. And that is what the veteran mentor has had to contend with all spring. But if a few days of sunshine as beheld over the weekend, would turn up, I, for one, will lay some mazuma on the biaze that when the confer ence meet rolls ai’ound, Hayward will have some winners in the run ning events to go with his top notch field event men. Royal Brougham of the Seattle ; P-I Monday in an open letter to ' Ray Eckman, athletic director of the University of Washington, complained of the treatment the public of Seattle was getting from the headline performers at Husky staged meets. He went on that Glenn Cunningham, did not break any world's records in an exhibi tion and that Archie Williams, California's Aar quarter miler, did n’t make the cash customers gasp early this year and then he con cluded something like this “and the great George Varoff came out and made one jump and then went to the showers.” But Mr. jsrougnam must noi xosu sight of the fact that when a champ is good enough to win with out duly extending himself against the local boys why should he burn up energy to give the hard money people a thrill. And there is always the risk of injury, too. What Mr. Brougham loses sight of is that Mr. Eckman is a pub licity man, and publicity is public ity. Any newspaper man should know that. In regards to our George, though, he has been favoring an injured leg all spring and what would the per centage be in jumping all afternoon for Mr. Brougham’s satisfaction?

Buiidiiig, Eugene Webfoots Prepare for Crucial Washington State Series Track Squad Pointing for Cougar Meet Second Two-Day Contest Slated for Saturday at Pullman; Husky Men Bounce Ducks, 88-46 With Saturday’s 88 to 46 defeat at the hands of Washington’s Hus kies completely forgotten, Oregon's I varsity track squad yesterday be gan concentrating on their second dual meet of the season against Washington State at Pullman, Sat urday. The Husky encounter bore out Colonel Bill Hayward's pre-meet | prediction that Oregon would be lucky to get 47 points. Webfoot runners did not take a first place on the cinders and it remained for Bill Foskett, Dutch Holland, Squeak Lloyd and George Varoff to come through in the field events. Speed Work In an attempt to develop his run ners Hayward will concentrate on speed work for his cinder men this week. Owing to the cold weather this spring, the track men have been forced to do distance and slow jogging work because of the chanc es of straining and pulling muscles. With a good hot sun forecast for uns weeK. Hayward expects to send his runners at top speed in stead of the usual jogs and short sprints. No Prediction Hayward would not make any prediction yesterday as to the probable score of the Cougar meet, but was definite that his Ducks would be on the short end of the counters again. Benke Stars Washington State has a formid able aggregation of stars, headed by blond Bill Benke, quarter miler, low hurdler and broad jumper. The Cougar mile relay team recently copped first at the Drake relays, competing against some of the fin est squads in the country.

Frosh Divoteers Beat OSC Rooks Coles Shoots Par 72 to Lead 6-Man Duckling Team in Corvallis Win Oregon’s six-man frosh golf team returned from Corvallis with a 124-5\is win over the Hooks of Oregon State Saturday in an 18 hole singles and best-ball match. Best scores of the meet were made by Don Coles, frosh No. 1. and Charles Stafford, Coles' oppon ent. Coles won the match with a par 72. but Stafford’s hole-in-one on the 135-yard 7th hole gave the Rook No. 1 man something to write home abput. Stafford’s ace was a perfect shot that hit the green a few feet short of the pin, rolled to the cup and dropped in. Stafford shot a 74. Bill Rosson and Charles Phipps, Ducklings, scored the only shut outs in the singles matches, each winning three points. nesuus: Frosh (17Vi) Rooks (9>.) Coles 2 . Stafford 1 Hughes 1 .

Phi Delts Take First Playoff Game 13 to 11 Beat Betas in Close Battle As Kappa Sigs Lose to Sammies; Theta Cliis Down SAEs 14 to 1 By BILL NORENE The Phi Delts could bat in more runs and oftener, than the Betas yesterday, so they won 13 to 11 in one of the highest scoring games played yet. The Phi Delts opened the scoring with a big six run rally in the sec ond inning. Walter Swanson, Phi Delt hurler, started the inning with a single to right center. Laddie Gale hit one to the same place, scoring Swanson as Dick Wersch kul momentarily juggled the ball. Clarry White tripled to score Gale and Jess Lacklen hit a home run past Ercel King, scoring White ahead. Bill Martin walked and Ken Shipley was credited with a home run, when he hit one past Dick Wintermute. Belas Score The Betas came back in their half of the second to score five runs. The Phi Delts retaliated in the third by pushing over two runs, when White walked, Joe Wilson forced Gale at third, and Jess Lacklen tripled scoring Wilson and White. The Phi Delts counted twice in the fifth, as the Betas .bounced back to score five runs, including a home run between Wilson and Strohecker by Wilson Seigmund. • Phi Dells Lead The Betas scored one in the sixth, when Bob (Lala) Winter mute beat out an infield hit, ad vanced to second on Swanson's balk, to third on Seigmund’s Texas leaguer to right, and scored as Les Werschkul was safe on Martin's error. The Phi Delts increased their 11 to-10 lead in the seventh, when (Please turn lo pajc four) f I Continuous campus patronage spells satisfaction and service We Phone . . . 825 for a satisfactory laundry and cleaning service that never fails.

It was the northwest conference opening for the Wcbfoots who seemed little affected by their long trip, and who displayed champion ship form. According to statistics to date, the Ducks have won 45 out of 49 matches in team com petition. The Cougars, who were fresh from a 7-0 victory over the Idaho Vandals, saw their hopes for a con ference championship dashed to ob livion as the Wcbfoots cleaned house in every match played. Economus Stars Johnny Economus, captain and No. 1 man for Oregon started the landslide by drubbing D. Barton, top man for the Cougars, 6-2, 6-4. The steady playing of Economus was largely responsible for his vic tory. Larry Crane was apparently a little bothered by the new courts, dropping his first set to R. Hull, No. 2 for the Cougars, 6-8, but came back in the next two sets to triumph 6-1, 6-1. Eaton Wins Easily Charlie Eaton eliminated L. Jor genson of the Cougars in straight sets, 6-2, 6-2. Eaton had little dif ficulty in disposing of his less-ex perienced opponent. Bill Zimmerman, No. 4 for the Ducks had the easiest time in the singles competition, dropping J, Snodgrass, 6-0, 6-2. Zimmerman, playing an aggressive game, out classed his opponent in every de partment. Tough Going A1 Finke, No. 5, had the most difficulty, but after losing his first set to W. Kaiser, 1-6, he turned the tables and won the deciding sets 6-4, 6-4. In doubles competition, the Web- ■ foots scored two easy triumphs. Eaton and Economus defeated Hull and Kaiser 6-2, 6-3, and Finke and Zimmerman completed the white (Please turn to page four) CALL 1456 for DELIVERY SERVICE on our famous bar becued sandwiches, spare ribs, baked beans and chili,con carne.

Wimpy Quinn, pitching against Pacific college Friday, allowed only four hits and struck out eight men. Roberts, Pacific chucker, struck out 13 men but allowed seven hits. Tom Robertson, pitching for Saturday’s game with Dallas set the boys down with 2 hits and three runs. In the meantime War ren's boys fattened up their bat ting averages, getting 22 hits, good for 22 runs off Dorenbecker, Dallas hurler. Robertson struck out seven men and Dorenbecker whiffed four. Wimpy Quinn made the longest hit that has ever been made on the Dallas field, but got only two bases on it because of a field rule. If a ball hits the high school, which is located near the field, a man is allowed two bases. Quinn put one on top of the school, about an 80 foot structure, but the rule still held. Marcel Empy hit a home run. Today, the frosh meet Junction City in a return game to be played there. Last week, they eked out a 2 to 0 victory in a tight game with John Linde pitching. Linde will probably pitch again today.

Oregon, with double wins over Oregon State, stands at the league top, while Washington State, by virtue of last week’s split series against Washington, is a half game below with four wins and one loss. Idaho Game Close Coach Howard Hobson’s Ducks were forced to put up a late hit ting splurge in Saturday’s second Idaho tilt to nose out Forrest Two good’s fighting Vandals. They finally did it, 6 to 3, behind five-hit pitching by Johnny Lewis, but were forced to the limit. Earl Gregory, Vandal chucker, kept Oregon away from the plate until the fifth inning, but finally yielded a rqn when Ford Mullen singled, and tallied on first base man Bill Kramer’s wild heave.
