Ye^ sir, it's nothing short o
incredible—this winning streal
built up by Coach Hobson's Oregoi
baseball club in the Inland Em
pire trip which ended yesterday
The team went north well down ii
second place, and generally con
ceded a chance to win or.ly foui
games out of six at best.
What did they do? Those Web
foots went absolutely berserk anc
captured the whole string, at tin
expense of Washington State’s de
fending champions, the third-plac<
Washington Huskies, and Forres'
Twogood's Idaho Vandals. The}
won six games in exactly sever
days.
Championship baseball , teams
need the breaks, and it looks a lol
like the heads-up Ducks got their
share. In that killing four-game
streak against Washington State
and Washington, the team was
forced to win three times in extra
innings Two of them went 11
frames.
^L,L the more remarkable is lh<
similarity of scores, which
you fans no doubt noticed. Big Bill
Sayles, Duck fireball artist, last
Friday limited Washington to only
three hits, while his mates were
garnering 13. Oregon didn’t win,
however, until the fourteenth inn
ing, when a four-run uprising won
it, 6 to 2. Hard-working Sayles
undaunted by that iron-man per
formance came back Tuesday to
duplicate the 14 inning, 6 to 2,
performance against ravenous
Buck Bailey’s unfortunate Cou
gars.
The game which really damaged
Washington State’s pennant march
was Monday’s sensational upset.
Dopcsters figured the Cougars to
take that one in stride. They had
n’t reckoned with Hobby’s ram
pagent Ducks. Oregon finally
grabbed it in ten innings by an 8
to 6 count.
Oregon’s high-mii|led baseball
team doesn’t have the title cinched
yet though, for there are two
games against Oregcli State to
be played, and Washington State
may insist upon the W'ebfoots
playing a previously cancelled pair
against Washington. Regardless
of that, Hobby’s boys ha\e done
wonders, and should have a rous
ing reception when they arrive
home today.
T1 AY WARD field will fairly hum
with activity this afternoon
and tomorrow when about 240 prep
athletes representing 57 high
schools convene for the eleventh
annual Oregon State interscholas
tic track and field championship.
Judging from times turned in
from the various district show?
last Saturday, a nice fist-full oi
records may fall before the lads
embark for home. One record that
looked like something to shoot foi
was the 14.6 time a Hood Rivei
boy turned in for the high sticks
Publicity Chief Bruce Hambj
wired authorities to verify it, anc
found that the distance was It
yards shy of the usual 120.

Oregon Cinder Squad Departs For Conference Meet
Hayward’s Ducks Hold
Even Chance to Grab
Second Spot at Seattle
L
Thirteen Man Traveling Team Heads
North for Five-Sided Affair Against
Idaho, Washington, and WSC
By JOHN PINK
Oregon's oft-beaten but still unbent varsity track and field squad,
13 strong, left for Seattle this afternoon for their final northwest
appearance of the year, the northern division championships at the
University of Washington stadium.
Chances for the Webfoot team to take top position in the meet
are considered very slim by Bill Hayward, cagy Duck mentor, who
said that his men would do well to end up in third place, but intimated
that if everything went well Oregon might slip into the second berth.
Last year the L,emon-yenow run
ners were the uncrowned North
west champions, since no northwesl
meet was held and Oregon de
feated all other northern schools ii:
dual competition.
Washington State college, led by
blond Bill Benke, and a record
smashing mile relay team, are ex
pected to breeze home with the
crown. Preliminaries and qualify
ing heals are on schedule for today
with the finals being run off to
morrow.
Oregon’s biggest bid for fame
will rest on the pole vaulting abil
ity of George Varoff, who last Sat
uday set a new northwest mark in
the event at 14 feet. Hampered by
a. leg injury and cold weather in
the early season, Varoff is now
rounding into form, and Hayward
thinks it very probable that his
blond juniper will push the mark
morrow defending marks they set
last year. Husky Bill Blackledge,
j Corvallis high weight man, is con
ceded a strong possibility to better
his shotput and discus marks. The
other 1936 winners are Bob Hen
dershott, pole vaulter from Bend,
and his teammate Kleinfeldt who
runs the mile.
rpHIS cousin cf Gib Schultz’s
from Forest Grove is apparent
ly the real McCoy, judging from
results of the northwest junior
i track championships which were
held in Portland Wednesday. This
lad—Francis Schulz by name—
gathered in more-than three firsts
gathered in a mere to f2 to take
third place in the meet.
He cracked the state broad
jump mark, and tied all previous
times for the century dash, and
almost duplicated in the 180.
Schultz negotiated the 100-dash in
:10.4, and reeled off the 180 yards
in :19.1, just a tenth of a second
over the record. Schultz’s leap in
the broad jump was 22 feet flinch,
A couple of teams to watch out
there are Grant high of Portland
district 9 champion, several time
a state winner, and Bend, class oi
the up-state teams. They’ll have
to be reckoned with when final
honors arc dished cut late tomor
row.

still higher with proper conditions
prevailing.
Bill Foskett, cream of the nor
thern shot tossers, who is unde
feated this year, is looked upon as
almost a certhin winner in the
leaden ball event as his marks
have far outdistanced those of his
competitors this season.
Another first place will prob
ably be taken by big Dutch Hol
land in the discus. Holland, who
threw the plate 153 feet last Sat
urday, has not been approached by
any plate tossers in the circuit this
season.
The above three are Oregon’s
best bets for firsts but Chan Berry,
shot and discus man, Elmer Kos
kello, javelin, Bob Fitcliard, steel
legged broad jumper, Squeak
Lloyd, veteran broad jumper and
high jumper, are also probable
winners in the field events.
In Captain Sam McGaughey,
slim miler, will be most of the
Webfoot stock in the running
events. McGaughey was clocked
near 4:20 for the four laps in prac
tice this week, but will have plenti
ful competition from Washington’s
Trowbridge and Angle.
Ken Miller, fast-stepping half
miler, is counted on to give the
Husky star, Vic Palmason, a bat
tle in that event. Hayward con
siders Miller's chances against the
vaunted Palmason as very bright.
Hayward took no hurdlers with
him as other schools seem to have
a strangle hold on this event. Ore
gon’s mile relay quartet, which
ran such a beautiful race against
Oregon StaLe last weekend, is ac
corded little chance against the
Cougar quartet who set a new
record of 3:14 in the event last
week.
Oregon's 13-man team and their
events are as follows: Frank Lloyd,
dashes, broad jump, high jump;
Bob Fitchard, high jump, broad
jump; Jim Schriver, quarter-mile,
> relay; Bill Harrow, quarter-mile,
relay; Sam McGaughey, mile, re
lay; Crawford Lyle, two-mile; Ken
Miller, half-mile, relay; George
Varoff, pole vault; Bill Foskett,
shot put, discus; Chan Berry, dis
cus, shot put; Dutch Holland, dis
cus, shot put, high jump; Elmer
Koskello, javelin; Duke Hardisty,
javelin.

Pennant Hopes High
Championship hopes in the Duck
camp are at a high ebb, for yes
terday's victory brought Oregon's
high-flying baseball team a clean
sweep of the crucial six-game road
trip. Hobby’s boys are out in
front by a full game over Washing
ton State, and need only two wins
over Oicgon State here May 28
and 29 to clinch the pennant. No
announcement to replay the post
poned Washington tilts has been
made.
Captain Johnny Lewis, right
hander, twirled the whole route
for Oregon against Idaho yester
day, coasting in on an early five
run lead despite Vandal rallies in
the seventh and ninth innings. Two
Idaho pitchers faced the Oregon
batters.
Webfoots Score Early
The Webfoots pounced upon
Whitey Jenkins, Vandal chuckcr,
for a 6 to 1 lead in the first five
innings, and continued the. attack
despite a brief let-up, on Broad
head, relief hurler. Oregon scored
single runs in the seventh and
eighth innings, and added two
more in the first of the ninth to
keep pace with the fighting Idaho
club which rolled over five runs in
two irames.
Forrest Twogood's clubbers
touched Johnny Lewis for a. trio of
runs in the seventh inning, and
came back with a desperate up
rising in the last of the ninth for
two more tallies. Pitcher Lewis
heaved shutout ball until the
fourth inning.
Oregon trotted over two runs in
the firs*, inning, added one more in
the second, and tallied again in
the third canto to spot Lewis a 4
to 0 lead. The win gave Oregon a
clean sweep of this year's four
games against Idaho.
Huskies Best OHC

grim mathematical chance for the
league championship by slugging
Oregon State's fourth-place Orange
men into submission with a 13 to 3
victory yesterday at Seattle. It
gave Washington three games out j

Two Dual Titles
At Stake Saturday
Beaver Golf aiul Tennis
Squads Travel Here;
Frosli Golfers Vie
A pair of northern division dual
championships will be at stake
here Saturday when varsity golf
and tennis teams of t he University
of Oregon and Oregon ring cur
tains on match competition. Regu
lar conference championship play
will come later.
Oregon’s crack golfing team
went to Corvallis last Saturday,
undefeated in two years of dual
competition, and needing only a
win over the also unbeaten Bea- j
vers to take the mythical north
west title. The Orangemen put
the clamps on Sid Milligan's Ducks
by a 17 >2 to 9*,4 count. Oregon
will have to win from the Staters
tomorrow to gain a tie in dual
play.
Coach Paul Washke's Webfoot
tennis team went to Corvallis last
Saturday with an unblemished
record of nine victories, including
a close 1 to 3 win over Washing
ton's Huskies, defending cham
pions, but took a 5 to 2 whacking.
Washke is planning on pairing his
singles players off in different or
der Saturday in an effort to get
the much-needed victory.
Saturday’s varsity golf and ten
nis matches are not all that is
slated for the sports bill for the
rival yearling divot squads will
contest ever the Laurelwood course
for the second time this season.
Golfers Have
Scramble for
Team Places
David Hamley and Louie
Cook Advance in Rank
On Team; State Squad
Practices Here
In a last-minute scramble for
better squad positions before the
last anti championship deciding
dual meet Saturday with Oregon
State, Webfoot golfers wound up
challenge matches Thursday in
close-to-par style.
A 73, one over par, gave Dave
Hamley a 3-and-2 win over Bill
Watson Wednesday, switching
Hamley to Watson's No. 3 posi
tion, Watson re-challenged Ham
ley Thursday for the No. 3 place,
but took a 5-and-4 drubbing as
Hamley burned the Eugene course
in a par 72.
Louis Cook W ins
In the only other challenge,
Louis Cook, reserve, duplicated
Haraley’s par 72 to drop Bill Stock
ton, No. 6 into No. 7 spot. Cook
won 4-and-3.
Stockton intends to re-challenge
Cook today in an attempt to regain
his position among the regulars.
Whichever holds No. 6 place in
Saturday's match with Oregon
State will play the full 36-hole
route, while No. 7 will play only
in the morning best-ball foursome
match.
Sid Milligan, No. 1 and coach,
will be unable to play the morning
round, leaving an opening for
either Cook or Stockton.
Students Practice Here
The entire Oregon State squad
came to Eugene this week to prac
tice for a day on the country club
course, so the layout will not be
entirely strange to them as they
make their bid Saturday for the
unofficial dual meet crown.
Their 17*4-9V2 win over the
Webfoots last week in Corvallis
placed them in a first-place tie
with the Oregon men.
The Beaver squad is composed
of the veteran Cliff Folen, and
Pemberton, Ingalls, Arenz, John
son, and Clarke.
Playing for the Webfoots will be
Sid Milligan, Walt Cline, Dave
Hamley, Bill Watson, Doug Ram
sey, Bill Stockton, and Louis Cook.
The Oregon Ducklings won by a
one-sided score in a previous meet
ing.

Intramural Final
For Next Monday
Phi Dolts, ATOs, and Betas
Take Top Positions as
Season Ends
With three of six field events
and seven track events left in the
competition, the intramural track
meet, formerly scheduled for yes
terday afternoon, was postponed
until May 24 and 26.
The reason given for the post
ponement was that the track would
have to be in shape for the Oregon
State high school track tourna
ment which will be held this after
noon and tomorrow on Hayward
field. Taking part in the meet will
be 57 Oregon high schools with ap
proximately 240 athletes.
Final results of the three field
events that were held this week
the javelin throw, shotput, and dis
cuss throw—found Beta Theta Pi
out in front by a wide margin. The
final outcome will settle once and
for all the final intramural stand
ings for the year 1936-37, stated
Nephi Jorgensen, assistant intra
mural sports director. Competition
is keen, as the Phi Delts are 13
points ahead of the ATO’s, with the
Betas close thirds. A hundred
points will be given to the winners
of the meet, based upon four
places, 5-3-2-1.
