All-Campus Sports Go Into Home Stretch All-campus sports roll merrily along', irregardless of complete ab sentee from the sports pages of the Emerald, poor weather, and hut have you? The Laurel wood course has seen plenty of action from the a-c golfers. At present the tourney is in the semifinals, with three hoys flaying almost near-par golf to get there. Bill Jameson of the Kappa i'lg Jamesons, powered his way past Hayden Phillips and Lloyd iHirkin; George Otten took Dick He ingold and Bales; Wayne Hub h ltd downed Chuck Herman and JJarney Loomis, and these three v- ill meet to determine the cam ju'i.s champ. Burke Wins Match The racket wielders of the Uni v ?rsity are hard at work, too, Jim Burke displayed a beautiful backhand in slashing aces past Jimmy Shephard in the semi finals to win, ti to 0, and 6 to 2. Vent Flshback stopped Dick iince, G to 2, (i to 2. These two i. ingers will meet in the finals. Tennis doubles have gained the semifinal round. Smokey Stover and Jim Shephard are .slated to cross rackets with either Boh Warren and Dick Lawrence or Burns and Jim Burke. In ping- pong singles, defending champ Chuck Cutler heads the field of contestants as they go into the semifinal round. Cutler is paired off with Pete Gregos and the omnipresent Jimmy Shephard with “Little Tommy” Galt. The two winners meet in the finals. The doubles tourney in ping pong is in about the same state. Phillips and Olmstead tangle with Martin and Chuck Herman, and Paul Folquet and Tom Galt meet Chuck Cutler and whoever he gets to replace Bobby Blair, who answered the call of his country.

By BILL STRATTON There were no track workouts Thursday and there will be none today, but if you were to ask any one on the Duck squad who was going to win the Oregon State dual meet Saturday on Hayward field, any one of them would feel confident of victory. This is undoubtedly the biggest meet of the year for the Ducks. “I don't care if you lose every other meet in the year,” Hayward appealed in a pep talk, “but I do want you to beat Oregon State.” Two Ail After checking everyone, it was found that there are only two men on the squad that will possibly be ailing when Saturday rolls around. Stan Ray, reliable quarter miler, and Warren Finke, the outstanding javelin thrower on the squad, have both encoun tered injuries during the past week. Ray, who has consistently placed and run anchor on the relay team, pulled a leg muscle a couple of days before the WSC meet and is still a bit weak. He is expected to run Saturday, however. If he doesn't. Bob Simpson will re place him. Finke, who has hurled the wil low over 172 feet this season, threw his elbow out of joint early this week, and is afraid that it will be weak for the meet.

Red Holloman may start on the hill for the Indees as a last min ute pitching change. They will hold Elmer Olson in reserve as a “stopper" ace. For the Greeks Hob Wren will most likely be the pitching selection as he will be well rested, where Mead and Len Popick will be tired from the strenuous playoff schedule.
