Webfoots Trim WSC Nine, 13 to 12 Bill Hamels Pinch-hit Homer in 9th Gives Ducks Thriller Win By BOB FLAVELLE Oregon’s slugging baseball nine pounded out a 13 to 12 victory over Buck Bailey’s Washington State Cougars yesterday on Howe field, when pinch-hitter Bill Hamel slammed out a four-ply drive in the ninth inning to score two runs ahead of him and put an end to the wild contest. - The Webfoots went into the final half of the last frame with the score 12 to 10 against them. Bill Carney opened festivities by bouncing a ball into the air in front of home plate to the mitt of Catcher Van Slyke who threw to first for the putout. Play was held up for five minutes as Hobby Hobson and his boys tried to con vince Umpire Spec Burke that the ball had not landed in fair territory. Pinch-Hitters Used Hobson at this point began making good use of the potent hitters that ride the Duck bench. Hank Burns, batting for Billy Calvert, punched a line single out into left field. Tony Crish then took the stick for Shortstop Tini Smith and was promptly walked by Bill Sewell, Cougar twirler, putting men on first and second with but one out. Here Hobby called on Hamel to take over in the batter’s box for Nick Begleries, Duck pitch er, and as Bailey called in the left fielder to play close for the left handed pinch-hitter, Hamel swung into the first pitch and smacked the apple over the left fielder’s head for a home run. Right hander Pete Igoe, who had previously chalked up two conference wins against Oregon State and Idaho, started on the mound for Oregon and found himself in hot water immediately. The first batter, Pearson, struck out. Joe Hemel walked, stole sec ond arid scored on Vern Butts single to right field. Sewell was safe when Tini Smith made his first of four bobbles for the Web foots. Van Slyke Homers Pete Hooper dropped a safe blow into right scoring Butts, and then Van Slyke, lined one out between left and center field which went over the bank for a home run, ending the scoring for the first inning. Oregon came back in their half of the first to score two runs off Lefty Chambers, starting twirler for Washington State, on singles by Don Kirsch, Dick Whitman, Johnny Bubalo, and Bill Carney. In the second inning, Bob Rieder replaced Igoe after the Duck pitcher had allowed two more runs to cross the plate on two hits, an error, and a base on balls. Rieder pitched to Hooper and Van Slyke, putting an end to further scoring. Again the Webfoots came back for two runs, scoring them on successive singles by Rieder and Kirsch, and center fielder Hamel's three base error of Kirsch’s blow. Cougars Rally Rieder allowed but one hit up to the sixth inning and then the invader’s bats started finding the mark again. Chambers grounded to Kirsch for the first out. Four successive blows into left field by Pierson, Hemel, Butts, and Sewell followed, and the Cougars had three runs and a 10 to 4 lead. But once again the Webfoots went to work in their half of the inning. Carney went out, pitcher to first, Calvert popped up to the third baseman and Sewell walked Smith. With two out and a man on first, Rieder doubled, Kirsch doubled, and Whitman, Clifford, and Berry singled to score four runs, making the score 10 to 8. The seventh inning went by with no fireworks, but with two out in the eighth. Butts was safe on Smith’s error and scored on singles by Sewell and Hooper. Hobson yanked Rieder at this point and threw in Begleries to stop the rally. Little Nick walked Van Slyke intentionally, filling the bases and then struck out Godfrey, ending the inning. Bucks Score Again In their half, the Webfoots scored two runs when Whitman, Clifford, and Berry bunched singles with two men out, run ning the score up to 11 to 10. The wild ninth inning saw the Cougars tally once on a single by Gentry, Begleries’ wild heave which nicked Pierson, and Dag gett’s hit to left field. The two teams meet again this afternoon at 1:30 on Howe field.

Injuries Hurt Chances Of Oregon Track Team Old Man Pessimism, that black, bothersome nemesis who “darkens people’s doors’’ was once more loitering around the Ducks’ hangout, doing his ut most to make things gloomy for Oregon traeksters. Dashing Kenny Oliphant, who was being depended upon to strengthen the sprint picture, has dropped out of competition alto gether, the victim of “football legs.” More trouble with “pedal extremities” wras reported yes terday, with Captain Ehle Reber, being the latest plagued. Again Mentor Bill Hayward bemoaned the fact that there are athletes on the campus, who, if they would report, "are better than some we have out.’’ Chances for an upset victory over Washington State, northern division champions last year, and strong favorites to repeat, are minute, Hayward confessed Wed nesday. More powerful than Washington, who took an 86 to 45 measure of the Webfoots a week ago, the Cougars claim an all-around potent outfit, led by Coast Champion Sprinter Pat Ha ley, and Noel Williams, stellar miler. - f Shopping the Town By MARY KAY RIORDAN | Feminine f Gender The weather is still “hot” and pic nics are still the rage at Oregon.
