DUCK TRACKS By ELBERT HA WHINS The ‘ Case of Mike Hoyman,” Une swimming coach at Oregon, is ja relatively simple one in that Iftoney seems to be the solution. (After that the situation begins to Cloud. Facing the University—in ease you haven’ tworried much about it—is this*. Mike Hoyman, who Itas coached Oregon swimming teams to coast prominence on a fmreiy gratis basis, is considering year’s leave of absence. Hoyman chooses to pursue doc toral! work, possibly at Columbia University, in health education, and the year’s leave is a virtual cer tainty for the near future. tsM-lnimers and fans alike, real ising what his loss would do to UW;iij)iming on this campus, want tiini to return. With his present salary, which includes nothing for swimming, Hoyman is likely to never come back. j <> t e Unless a public subscription is taken, there are only two sources j from, which a coaching salary might come. 1. The athletic board. Z Via the PE department. A little investigation will show. however, that getting a sum of pay $400.00 from the athletic, board is not very probable now. How much money is available for improvement purposes on the campus from that source falls mainly upon how many people click the turnstiles at football and basketball games. Or. this campus the hoop sport, ts expected to at least pay its way, While football is expected to pro vide enough extra revenue to take care of spring sports. * «! * * That much money is not avail able for such a cause of giving Mi ke Hoyman a boost, was proven Monday night when the athletic board turned down a much-needed left field fence project for Howe field. A thletic Manager A use Cornell, [ Who incidentally took this school Svheui its athletic fund was in red Imarlks and brought us out about $8,030 ahead last spring, casually mentioned recently that a back stop behind home plate on Howe field was seriously needed, too.

Varsity and frosh track athletes are eligible for all events, except ing the event or events in which they are competing on the varsity or frosh team. Every house fielding a team will receive 30 points. The winner of the meet is given 75 points, while 45 points will be distributed among the other teams in proportion to the position they take.

I’m -neither approving pr de nouncing the idea, but a member of the administration hinted the other day that compulsory student ' body fees might be a solution. It was pointed out that a large per ! centage of the students don’t buy ASUO cards—which is important when you start adding the cash. Considering that help from the athletic board is not probable right away, it looks like the bur den rests upon a raise via the PE department. Dean Leighton fa vors a raise for Mike, but the matter is beyond his jurisdiction, i Today a team of girls from the Los Angeles Field Hockey associa tion will play an Oregon aggrega tion of coeds . . . it’s the first chance here in some time to see some good field hockey . . . drop out to Gerlinger field and watch it ... if you’re a baseball fan and watch Oregon play Willamette, just drop along afterwards ... it should be worth it Coach Keene Leads Bearcats on Return Visit; Hardy To Hurl Salemites After Revenge for Last Week's Double Defeat at Hands-of Duck Batters; Captain Mullen Will Catch Hoping to duplicate last week’s double victory over the Willamette Bearcats, Oregon’s Ducks with Coach Howard Hobson back at the helm will match line drives and hooks with Spec Keene’s hopefuls this afternoon on Howe field at 3:30. Last week the Ducks recorded a double victory over the Bearcats. A combination of bad weather. Bob Hardy, and Wimpy Quinn combined to make life miserable for the visitors as they went down to defeat in the first game, 5 to 3. The next day in Salem it was mostly Quinn as the raw-boned slugger hit a home run with the bases loaded and the Ducks prac tically coasted the rest of the way to win. 9 to 6. This afternoon will be a clean slate for the Bearcats, and Coach Keene will be shooting the works in an attempt to knock over the Ducks and regain some of the pres tige lost in last week’s defeats. The Bearcats claimed the state col lege baseball championship last year after taking a 17-inning deci sion from Oregon to win the odd game of the three game series. Five Men Lost Although he lost five of his ball players to professional baseball and one of his hurling mainstays did not turn out for baseball, Keene has succeeded in digging up some good ball players in addition to holdovers and now has a fair ball club. Walt Weaver, chief chucker of Keene’s mound corps for the last j two seasons, has returned and is the nucleus of this year’s mound j staff which includes Tom Hager, Francis Gatchell, Bill Anton, and Bob White, transfer from Eastern j Oregon normal. Johnny Oravec, former little all- | American football player, and Buz zy Hagedorn alternate in trying to fill Dwight Aden’s shoes. Aden is the outfielder who signed with the Boston Red Sox. Robertson, Moe Catch Cathenvood and Southard, sec ond and fourth hitters on the club, hold down the other two outfield posts. The infield is taken care of by Kolb on third, Shinn at shortstop, ; Watts on second, and Pierce on: first. Robertson and Moe have j been doing most of the catching to# date. Bob Hardy was named by Coach Hobson yesterday to handle Ore gon’s mound duties with John Linde, another southpaw, ready for relief. Ford Mullen will continue at his new post behind the plate. The infield will be the same quartet of old reliables that have handled the inner defenses most of the time since the start of the sea- j son. Slugger Wimpy Quinn. Jack Gordon, Jack Coleman, and Gale Smith are the big four, from third' base to first. Outfielders Alike According to Coach Hobson there is little difference in any of the five outfielders, and he declined to. name any starters although he said that all of the five, Ken Bat tleson, John Linde, Bob Beard, Masa Kato, and Matt Pavalunas, are cretain to see action. A cheering note in the Duck camp was the addition of Cece Walden, catcher, and Bob Smith and Jimmy Nicholson, outfielders, to the ranks of the baseballers. The boys have been out for football, ■but were released by Coach Oliver after a short football workout yes (Please turn to page seven-) .» Phi Delts Will Battle SAEs for Donut Title Delts Bounced, 6 to 0; Theta Chis Beaten; Holmes Stars Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Al pha Epsilon clash today at 4 in the championship match of intra mural water polo. The Phi Delts trampled Delta Tau Delta, 6-0, in yesterday’s battle, while SAE downed a game Theta Chi outfit, 3-0. In the first match yesterday af ternoon, the SAEs scored two goals in the first half and one in the last. Scoring honors were1 even with. Ralph Rafferty, Jim j Marnie, and Jim Smith each scor- [ ing a goal. Jack Levy, varsity dis- ! tance man, played a strong de-i fensive game for the winners. Theta Chi put up a stubborn! defense against the SAE team but failed to get its offense clicking. Vern Hanscam, Theta Chi goalie, was instrumental in keeping the score down by staving off repeat ed SAE goal threats. Ed Holmes, high scoring Phi Delt forward, had little difficulty in solving the Delt defense as the Phi Delts white-washed Delta' Tau Delta. Holmes garnered five goals. Jack Blanchard and Joe “Qeenie” Devers played a consist ent game for the winners, while Harry Regnart was the outstand ing churner for the losing Delt team. Ducklings Down Jeff Ball Team Bob Reider Checks Democrats While Mates Collect on Demo's Errors By LYLE NELSON Bob Reider, lanky Duckling hurler, silenced the big bats of the famed Jefferson hitters and pitched the freshman baseball team to a 8 to 3 victory yesterday on Howe field. The yearling hurler was in trou ble several times during the game, but managed to pull out before the Jefferson team could gather many runs. In the first inning the lads from Portland led off with two runs combining two walks, an error, and one hit. From then on Reider settled down and allowed but one other run, that in the sixth on hits by Ward Walker and Dave Brad ley. He appeared to become more effective the longer he was on the mound. No Long Hits The game was marked by the absence of extra base hits. Al though a total of 12 hits was rung up, all were singles. Only one player, Ward Walker, Jefferson shortstop, got more than one hit. Carl Kellenberger of the Demo crats “robbed” several Duckling sluggers of sure hits with his catches in left field. On one catch he ran about 100 yards af ter a high foul and caught it run ning at full speed. He was given a nice hand from the crowd for this catch. The yearling nine trailed until the sixth inning when they put on a five-run splurge to give Reider a comfortable lead. In the big inn ing Quentin Earl, first up was hit by a pitched ball, Rathbun then sacrificed and Reider was also hit. Smith was safe on Walker’s er ror, Earl scoring. Jack Shimshak then hit to the third baseman, who threw to home. Butenscheon dropped the throw and all men were safe. Bill White then connect ed for the only frosh hit of the inning to drive in Smith and Shim shak. Our Complete Summer Stock is in . . .
