fire looking bright for the Duck
lings in the Oregon State dual
meet to he held in conjunction
with tin- varsity meet Saturday
on Hayward field.
Wally Still, former Mac-hi
star, is being looked to for a
i \rge share of the freshman
score. He recorded 16 U points in
(tie high school meet and won
every race he ran against the
Hooks in the annual relays last
* vvmtil.
He will entered in the
100, 220, javelin, and will run

Lawrence occasionally runs the

In the 880, Hayward has Bob

the dual meet.

The mile and two mile appear
to be the weakest events for the

team was the only one to default
this spring: all the other games
have been run off as scheduled.
Gl ides won the championship, but
were given competition before
earning it.
The ail-star teams are sup

One team is as follows: Mil

platter this Friday afternoon at
4 o’clock. Independent and Greek
campus are primed and ready.
Umpires Ted Sarpola and Jimmy
Shephard are ready. Managers
Hank Burns and Joe Miller are
ready. Pitchers Bob Wren and
lied Holloman are ready. As a
matter of fact, everyone is ready
and set to go. Everyone but the
weather, and that has been look
ing pretty good lately.
So the stage is set. Betting
odds at this stage of the game
are 6 to 5, take your choice. The
independents’ choice are the In
dependents, and the Greek's
choice is the Greeks. The pari
mutuel windows will be open all
day Thursday and Friday morn
ing in front of the side with the
Kwaraas handling the betters.
Pitching Choices
The pitching choices we have
told you many times. So we
will tell you again. Bed Hollo
man or Koy Nelson will start
for the Independents, and Bob
Wren or Johnny Mead are slat
ed to ascend the hillock for the
Greeks.
The big thing favoring the In
dependents( and all their depen
dants, which we put in because
it rhymes) is that they will be
well, rested up for the fray. The
Greeks are all busy fighting for
Cindermen
Eye Beaver
Dual Tussle
With their eye on the bigg%t
meet of the year, Oregon's var
sity track men have been work
ing out strenuously with the in
tent of taking the highly rated
Beavers down a notch or two.
Oregon State, with a few stars,
is rated to lick the Ducks, but
all Webfoot conversation is to
the contrary. It appears that
there are a few stars that have
upheld them in previous meets,
and they lack a well rounded
squad.
Oregon’s team is not complete
and well rounded, but their men
seem to be more versatile and
probably more consistent. Pre
vious meets have shown that. *
Oregon State’s main strength
lies in Captain Tommy Blair in
the middle distances, Bob Fisch
er in the mile and two mile, Don
Findlay in the broad jump and
high jump, and John Mandic in
the high jump. Gene Gray and
Harvey Muskrat appear strong
in the sprints also.
None of these men are very
versatile, while many of Oregon’s
men are capable of entering
three and sometimes four events
in a meet. Zenas Butler can run
the 100, both hurdle events, and
enter the broad jump; Ralph
Kramer enters the sprints aiilf
hurdles; Bob Newland is capable
in the high and broad jump; and
Don Wilson enters any of the dis
tance events. The rest of the
squad sticks to respective event
most of the time, and all of them
are improving rapidly.
the championship of the league,
so they should be tired. The In
dependents hope so, anyway.
All the campus is expected to
come and see the ball game.
