Ulbrickson says the Poughkeep'

too long. His strokers are back ir
training, after a rest of thret
weeks. He says the California
crew didn’t seem quite so strong
in the dual meet this year, but that
they’ll be in there in the big splash
. . . that Cal's best boat is her
freshman crew.
Probably not quite halt' the
crowd at Saturday’s game was
made up of ivory hunters, but
there were plenty of major
league scouts in the stands.
Heading the list was Earl
Heading the list was Earl Sheeley
of the Boston lied Sox. Ernie
the Kcd Sox and one-time Seat
tle Suds’ manager, was on hand,
as was Justin Fitzgerald, Santa
Clara coach, who keeps one eye
open for the Detroit Tigers.
Fitzgerald umpired the bases in
Saturday’s game and did the job
well. Sheely told Sayles, after
seeing Big Bill set Washington
back with three hits in 14 inn
ings Friday, that he could win
ball games in any league. It
surely looked like it Friday. The
big right-hander got tougher ev
ery canto, giving not a blow un
til after the eighth. . . .
* S.
Lou Budnick of the Huskies may
give W3C a headache before the
year is over. He gave 14 blows in
the long game Friday but kept
them scattered and was plenty
tough after Oregon presented him
with a brace of runs, both un
earned, in the early innings.
If Budnick can't do it, Tubby
Graves has a dependable sopho

ished both games. A southpaw,
Husky fans call him “Iron Arm”
... he has a nice motion and plen

Eugene Links
By LARRY QUINLAN
i The unofficial match-play golf
■ championship of northwest colleg
I es will be decided between Oregon
; and Oregon State Saturday, when
the Beavers bring a classy six
man golf squad to the Eugene
country club course for the last
dual meet of the season.
Oregon dropped into a first-place
tie with the Beavers when the
Oregon State team besmirched her
unmarred two-year match play
golfing record last Saturday in
Corvallis by a score of 17]/2-9%
Any match play championship is
unofficial in the northwest because
the northern division conference
meet at the close of the golfing
season determines the year's
champs. This meet calls for medal,
not match play, calls for a four
| man team instead of six, and goes
I 36 holes, the winning team being
the one with the lowest aggregate
score.
Ah Idaho and Montana compete
for the northern division champion
ship but do not enter active dual
meet competition during the sea
son, the only schools engaged in
regular northwest dual meet play
this year were Oregon, Oregon
State, Washington, Washington
State, and College of Puget Sound.
Puget Sound is not in the north
ern division conference.
Saturday’s match will see the
Webfoots handicapped in the
morning best ball matches as Sid
Milligan, captain, coach, and No. 1
man, will be unable to play. Milli
gan will play in the singles in the
afternoon, however.
Milligan's vacancy will be filled
by Louis Cook, reserve, who has
been unable to crash a regular po
sition on the squad this year. Cook
won three points in his only match
of the season when he played No.
6 against Puget Sound here two
weeks ago.
Tuesday Cook won the right to
play against Oregon State when he
dropped Bob Speer, last week's No.
7, by one-up on the 21st hole at
the country club. Both Speer and
Cook were four over par at the
end of the match.
Other positions will be filled by
Walt Cline, Bill Watson, Dave
Hamiey, Doug Ramsey, and Bill
Stockton.
The Beavers will bring Folen,
Pemberton, Ingalls, Arenz, John
son, and Clarke.
Varsity Cindermen
Drill for Weekend
Howard Points Trackers
For Conference Meet on
Seattle Field
With but a slim chance to win
the Northwest conference meet in
Seattle this Saturday, Colonel Bill
Hayward is pointing- for a second
place berth as he continues to drill
his varsity track squad daily in
preparation for the coming test.
All indications point to Wash
ington State's powerful Cougar
squad as the logical winner, follow
ing its victory over Washington
last Saturday.
Oregon has been beaten by both
schools, but the foxy Oregon men
tor figures that his Wcbfoot squad
has better than an even chance to
slip into second place.
Oregon with possible first place
winners in the shot put, discus,
pole vault, mile, and several certain
seconds and thirds, has a good
chance. Most of Oregon's points
will come from the field, as Duck
cinder pathers have not been up
to par this year.
Hayward will probably start
tapering off his squad this after
noon and name his traveling squad
before Friday. Schools are allowed
to enter 18 men, but indications
arc that Hayward will take only
about 14 with him to Seattle.
Funny, nothing in the Emerald

If visitors get them the local fan hoots.

An Olympia boy, a hard bird to fan.
Q is for Gordon, Joe's gone but Jack’s here;
These brothers know plenty about the old sphere.

As a rule he is quiet, but lie can show some steam.
J is for infield, for instance at first
We have Mr. Smith, who is good at his worst.

For long hits and short hits he keeps an eye peeled.

son. Oregon retaliated with one in
the first half of the third. Amato
hit but was forced at second as
Mullen was safe at first on a field
er’s choice. The Oregon lead-off
man stole second, scoring a mo
' ment later when Courtney smash
ed a hard liner into right field off
Carlson’s glove.
WSC Scores in 51 h
1 After two men had flied out to
Hurney in the fifth, WSC pushed
| their final run across the plate
without knocking the ball out of
I the infield. Kinnaman was safe on
[ Gordon's error. Bishop beat out
a grounder to Gordon at shortstop.
Both men were safe on Mullen's
error put Byram on, and Kinnaman
scored as Nethercutt dragged a
slow roller to Mullen on third, beat
ing the throw to first by a hair.
An error by Eastman, WSC cat
cher, put Hurney, first man up for
Oregon in the seventh, on the
sacks. Eastman’s throw was wide
when Hurney half-dumped the ball
into the ground in front of the
plate, the big Oregon right-fielder
going all the way to third before
Goddard could recover the ball in
right field. Hurney was held on
j third as Sayles’ grounded, Bishop
! to Carlson, but scored a moment
later when Smith tapped out a per
1 lect squeeze play bunt down the
first base line which Carlson field
] cd anti tossed to Bishop covering
j the bag.
KiniuimunS First Loss
From that point on Sayles strove
valiantly to hold the hard-hitting
Cougars in check until the Web
foots gathered their forces for an
uprising in the fourteenth. The
victory gave him four wins and
one loss in conference play and
marked the first time that Oregon
has ever beaten Kinnaman.
Both players received brilliant
' support. Amato, playing second,
went deep into center field in the
fourth to take Kranc’s fly over his
j shoulder, on a dead run. Hurney,
, who drove the longest hit of the
| day deep into center field, was
thrown out on a quick relay from
Byram to Bishop to Schoening
when the ball struck some trees
and bounced back into the park.
Sayles hit two balls which would
have been home runs on Howe
field, only to have them snared by
Kranc in left and By ram in center,
playing 30 feet deeper than usual
and after hard runs.
Carlson on first base for the
Cougars made 23 put-outs anc
Smith made twenty in the same
position for Oregon. Hurney hac
two hits, one a home run, and Mul
len three to lead the Oregon hit
ting. Byram of WSC was walker
four times gaining seven passes ir
the two-day series.

Ycarlir.g baseball teams from

festivities on Howe field this af
ternoon when they meet for the
fourth time. The game starts at
3 o'clock.
Howard Maple's Orange Babes
hold a two to one edge in the sc

pair of twins, and it is the last
Duckling opportunity to even mat

Linde Probable Choice
Southpaw John Linde, Honest
John Warren's ace chucker, will
probably lake the mound for the
Ducklings this afternoon in his
third start of the series. Linde set
the rooks down, 7 to 1, in contest
number one, two weeks ago, but
Saturday dropped a tight affair,
9 to 8.
Coach Maple is expected to send
Earl McKinney, rook fastball
heaver, on the hill against Linde.
A1 Sehulmerich, brother of Wes,
who is now manager in the
new Western International circuit,
is Oregon State's other hurling al
ternative.
Use Same Lineup
The frosh infield which will be
the same that opened Saturday's
morning game includes John Dick,
first base; Jimmy Jones, second;
Wimpy Quinn, short, and Tom Cox,
at third. John Kelly, Astoria prod
uct, handles Linde's slants behind
the bat. Jake Fisher, Matt Pava
lunas, and Lyle Goode are the
Duckling outfielders.
One lad in the rook lineup to
watch is Arland Schwab, ex-Sil
verton high shortstop and pitcher,
; who is a dangerous batter. Schwab
hit four times out of nine Satur
day, and came up with some of the
day's outstanding field plays. Bob
Bonney, Orange yearling center
fielder, is another standout. Bon
ney hits left-handed, and besides
clubbing the ball well, is an ex
pert fly-chaser.
Honest John's Ducklings went
into Saturday’s two games against
the looks with ten consecutive
wins to their credit, only to be
knocked over, 9 to 8, and 9 to 6.
Wimpy Quinn, frosh Sultan of
Swat, and Paul Thunncman, ex
Eugene high southpaw, chucked
the second contest.

Bob Wines pitched good ball, but
15 Alpha errors were too much as
Alpha went down to defeat before
Gamma 17 to 7.
Two big innings, the fourth and
sixth, in which the Gammas pushed
over six and five runs respectively,
put the game on ice.
In the fourth, six hits provided
the necessary fuel for the Gamma
rally. Two hits, one a triple by
Honest Waldo Canfield, Gamma
chucker, two errors and a walk
were responsible for Gammas' runs
in the sixth.
Canfield led the hitteis with
