7vt last the frosh are holding the
reins behind the sports page and
after a short deliberation decided
to quit panning John Warren and
give him a little of the honor he
ia entitled to.
John has been called everything
from the horse, to the ruler of
mud flats, the mud flats refer
ring to the field west of the Igloo.
John has a record any coach
would be proud to have. In his
three years as frosh coach he has
\y ;n the following games:
\V E Pet
Football .13 4 .764
Basketball .43 6 .882
Baseball . .35 7 .833
His teams this year haven’t lost
a game of any kind to the Rooks.
Today it will be up to the base
JbaU i am to keep that record in
tact.
[Warren's gridiron crew this year
compared favorably to his 1936
team. Graybeal was the only dit
to ence in the two teams. Hankin
eoa, Mabee, Stenstrom, Haliski,
Stewart, White, Schultz, and Sam
vtelson were the stars on his 1937
team.
On his basketball team John
named Marshik, Sandness, Pippo,
McNeely, and Andrews as his chief
ca: taba tossers.

“I’d walk across the street to

Hayward, when asked whether he
thought it was unlucky taking 13
men to Seattle.
Boyd Brown, varsity javelin
tosser, hit the 200-foot mark for
the first time in his life. Brown
is one of Bill’s favorites to come

Round Up Season
In Rook Dual Meet
Lack of Meet Competition to Prove
Costly for Ducklings; Bob Deiz Hurts
Leg in Intersquad Cinder Session
Frosh cinder hopefuls began tapering off Monday in preparation
for their annual dual clash with the Oregon State Rooks next Satur
day afternoon on Hayward field. The Rooks, due to a better balanced
squad, are favored to repeat their earlier season relays victory over
the Ducklings.
“Lack of competition,” says Frosh Coach Miller, “has brought about
a let-down on the part of the Frosh team, the emotional results of
which may cause serious handicaps to a number of the athletes.”
“From past records, the Frosh appear to have only one “cinch”
a let-down on the part of the Frosh team. The emotional results of
| first place,” said Miller in a state-*
ment last night. However, he con
| cedes a possibility of as many as
seven blue ribbons if all men live
! up to advance expectations.
Doing a little prognosticating,
the coach figures that the Rooks
should win by a score of 64-58, but
adds that he hopes he’s as bad a
“picker” as Grant Swan, Oregon
| State coach.
Deiz Pulls Muscle
Bob Deiz, probably the out
standing sprinter in northwest
frosh circles, pulled a muscle in a
time trial last week, and is a
j doubtful starter in the Rook meet.
His place in the sprints will be
filled by Dwight Nott, Bob Keen,
and Leland Lewis.
; The mile race will pit two good
i freshman milers in Galen Morey
of the Frosh and Graf' of the
Rooks. This meeting should pro
vide an outstanding bit of action,
possibly leading to a new record.
Hugh Simpson and Howard Hall
will be Morey’s team mates in this
' race.
Ward Wilson will carry the
iFrosh colors in the 440 against
.Cooley and Thompson of the
Rooks, Chuck Tripp and reformed
boxer Merle Hanscom will be
looked to for Frosh points.
Wilson in Half
In the 880 Wilson will again ap
,pear. Frosh followers are looking
for a possible record-cracking per
formance in this event. Wilson
will be paced by fellow-Californian
Charlie “Captain” Green.
Chuck Tripp and Bob Belloni
are listed as starters in the 2201
low hurdles, with Dwight Nott a
doubtful entrant due to sprinting
duties.
In the high barriers. Bob Bel
loni and Ed Adams of the frosh
will meet Christenson and Abbott
pf the Rooks. Running events will
wind up with the mile relay which
will find Hanscom, Griffith, Morey
and Simpson representing the
Frosh against a strong Rook team.

Frosh Golf Squad
Beat Rooks 4 Times
In 5 Meetings
The frosh golf season wound up
with the Duckling squad taking
four of their five matches and hav
ing the distinction of being the
first Oregon frosh team with a girl
member.
When the qualifying rounds were
totaled up the list contained the
names and scores of nine boys and
one girl. The girl, Ruth Tustin, one
time student of Olin Dutra, quali
fied for the seventh position and
ended up at the finish of the sea
son on the team.
Cliff Smith Tops
The 72 qualifying .holes were
played in rain, mud and hail which
did not help the scores. Cliff Smith
secured the top position which he
held most of the season, and the
position he played in all matches.
Fred Davis was No. 2 man
throughout the season. Chet Kel
ler and Jim Hickey traded the third
.and fourth position back and forth.
. Kneeland Stone and Pete Kloster
man varied at the fifth and sixth
berth, with Ruth Tustin playing in
the sixth position the last of the
season.
The Ducklings defeat was hand
ed to them by their big brothers,
the varsity. The varsity beat the
frosh 20 to 7 but did not have the
easy time they expected with
Smith surprising the varsity by
taking three points from Doc Near.
The frosh nosed out Eugene high
by three points to win a four-man
three-way match between the Eu
gene, University and Albany high
schools. Fred Davis was medalist
with a 73.
During a challenge match with
Cliff Smith, Fred Davis sank a
hole in one, made an eagle and shot
four birdies. The tough part of the
situation was that Smith nosed
him out to win the match.
Rooks Defeated
The Ducklings took the rooks on
their own course as their first big
match of the season. Ruth Tustin
played a special match with Ore
gon State’s Dorothy Sellers, a
member of the rook squad and took
three points.
The frosh played a four-man
three-way match at Laurelwood
with the Eugene and University
highs. The frosh came out on top
with 21 y2 of the 36 possible points.
Davis was medalist with a 71, one
under par.
The rooks lost to the Ducklings
when they played their return
match here. The frosh were only
two points in the lead, 10 to 8, af
ter the morning singles, but came
back strong in the doubles to take
the match 16 to 11.
strongest event. Lee Lewis who
placed in the state meet last year,
and Dwight Nott round out the
Frosh entrants.
Reber will team with miler Hugh
Simpson in an attempt to outvault
Ruhkala and Caffall of the Rooks
in the pole vault event.
The weight events will be han
dled mainly by football men who
have just finished spring practice.
The comparatively unknown abil
ity of these men cause Coach Mil
ler’s grey hairs no end. Jack Sick
el, who put the shot over 50 feet
in high school, is expected to come
through with points in this event.
He will be backed by Wally
White and Allan Samuelson.
White and Sickel will likewise
attempt to garner points in the
discus. In the javelin the Frosh
look to Eino Juola to provide the
opposition for Hoffman and Land
force of the Rooks.
