Will Be Hoisted
A t Friday Opener
By JEAN SPEAROW
The championship pennant will fly in Eugene three days after
the national cymbals and drums announce the opening of America’s
national pastime, when Oregon and Oregon State meet at Howe field
next Friday to show the fans what the northern division has in store
this year.
Players from both sides will have difficulty keeping their minds
on their positions as they strive for prizes to be given to players
Orange Relays
Will Tax Ducks
With the Oregon State relays
coming up Saturday afternoon at
Hayward field, Coach Bill Hay
ward is having a difficult time
finding men to complete the eight
relay teams.
Lack of reserve strength will
weaken the Oregon chances
against the strong Beaver squad.
All track men were given a
strenuous workout yesterday af
ternoon, and by the time the re
lays begin this weekend, Hayward
will have a team of unknown po
tentialities to throw in against
the Orange runners.
Men sure to see action are Bob
Deiz, Jim Buck, and Dutch
Schultz in the sprints and Kirr.i
and Ed Storli, Les Clever, Merle
Hanscom, and Ed Reiner in the
middle distances. Bob Mitchell,
Rea Kleinfeldt, and Verlyn Wolfe
are due to compete in the distance
events.
In the hurdles will be Ray
Dickson, Kernal Buhler, Buck,
and Martin Luther. Weight men
include Bill Regner, Frank Em
mons, Elmer Olson, and Dick
Horne. High jump competition
will be taken care of by Jim Har
ries, Harve McKee, Ehle Rebel’,
Ray Dickson, or Rod Hansen.

A committee appointed by Joe
Gurley, head of the opening day
committee, consisting of Erling
Jacobsen, Frank Emmons, and
Hank Nilson and representing
the Order of the “O” has been
contacting the downtown business
and has lined up awards which
are calculated to sharpen the
competition and add humor to
the proceedings.
Fine for Error
Chief of Police Harry M. Niles
of Portland offered 10 days in
jail as an inducement for the
Portland opener who made the
first error.
It is rumored that a dead fish
will convey the sentiments of the
crowd at the Eugene contest to
the unfortunate lad who makes
the first error.
Proclamations may be "passe”
but Mayor Elisha Large sees no
reason why Eugene should not
celebrate April 19 as Baseball
day. The mayor expressed his
wish to cooperate with the news
papers in building publicity for
the occasion and sent Bruce
Hamby "Best wishes for a suc
cessful season for the Oregon
baseball team.”
Robertson Returns
To Duckling Nine
Howard "Hooks” Robertson,
hard-hitting freshman catcher
was back in the Duckling lineup
yesterday, after John Warren had
kept him on the sideline because
of doubt of his eligibility.
Robertson, former Eugene high
star, was kept out of last week
end’s three Portland games and
the encounter against his former
teammates played Monday.
Warren put Dean Rankin,
southpaw curveballer, on the
mound against the varsity in a
practice game yesterday.

team had little trouble in drop
ping the Kirkwood boys, 15 to 6,
