The University of Washington Huskies blew a three-run lead in a fatal ninth inning in Seattle Thursday to allow the league lead ing Ducks to sweep the four-game series, 9 to 6. Max Soriano, ace Husky right hander, held the high-flying Web foots to five hits for the first eight frames of the game, but the Wash ington infield fell apart in the final stanza to give Oregon six runs and the ball game. Hal Saltzman went the distance for the Hobsonmen, allowing nine hits to achieve his sixth Northern Division win of the 1946 season. The win gave Oregon a record of four victories and two losses for the dreaded six-game road tour of Idaho and Washington, and virtu ally eliminates the Huskies as con tenders for the conference title. The Webfoots need only a single win in,their remaining four games to cinch a tie for fhe division pen nant, and a split in the Oregon state series would give them un disputed possession of their fourth straight crown.

Oregon Tracksters Entrain Today For Cougar Meet Coach Bill Hayward’s track team entrains this afternoon for their first away-from-home meet of the season. The Ducks journey to Pullman, Washington where they will face the Washington State Cougars Saturday afternoon. John Warren is substituting for Colonel Hayward as coach for the team on this journey as Bill is continuing his policy of | staying home when his team travels. Traveling Squiul Announced Both Hayward and Warren oriented the harriers and field event men yesterday, and mem 1 bers of the traveling squad were announced. Hayward informed the runners that they were going to be on short rations after the Fri day night meal in Portland. The team will arrive in Pullman around 11:30 a.m. Saturday, and before leaving will have energized them selves with one of the diner car meals. No Time Trials Time trials were originally ! called for for yesterday, but Hay | ward told his men to just take ! a few easy laps in order to loosen I their muscles. The long train ride and short arrival before the meet j will call for the team to make doubly sure that they are limber tough going is slated against Washington State. Nineteen Oregon harriers are scheduled to take the train trip— a small team, but one packed with potential double point getters. Trackmen leaving today are: Jake Leicht, Carl Maxey. Andy Swan, Ernie Sehauer, Walt McClure, Johnny Joachims, Hugh Stapleton, George Hammock, Dave Edwards, Gordon Allbright, Wyn Wright, Walt Danovan, Bill Beifuss, Tom Garrity, Mason, Ed Sandford, ^Bill Kydd ,Lou Robinson and Dick Shelton. Leicht and Maxey will double in the hundred and 220 yard dash; Swan and Sehauer in the 440-yard dash and mile relay; Stapleton and Hammock in the mile and two mile, Beifuss and Garrity in the high and broad jump, Wright in the high and low hurdles, Donavan in the low hurdles and relay. In the other college conference meet scheduled for tomorrow Ore gon State is host to the Idaho Vandals. State dropped its meet to Washington two weeks ago and the Vandals are the recent con querors of the Cougars. Both the Oregon-Washington State and Ore gon State-Idaho meets should pro vide plenty of thrills as teams are evenly matched in nearly every event. Hayward expects a close meet between his thinclads and the Washington State runners and isn't willing to pick the winner Olivermen Add Grid Clash To Junior Weekend Slate^ By BERNIE HAMMERBECK Starting lineups went unannounced yesterday afternoon as Head Coach Tex Oliver briefed his 1946 grid aggregation for their final intra-squad tilt of the spring season this afternoon on Hayward field at 2 p.m. Last week Oliver and assistants Mike Mikulak and Vaughn Corley proposed a starting lineup, but at the last moment changed their plans and in order to avoid embarrassment this week have declined to name a starting lineup for the two open ing elevens. Fairly certain, however, despite the reticence of the coaching staff, is the lineup of the first squad which will un doubtedly start the Junior Weekend tilt. Wayne Barthol emy and Pug Mayer are ex pected to start at the end slots with Bartholemy at right and Mayer at left. Tony (Crash) Crish ordinarily holds down the left wing spot, but has been out of the lineup for a week because of his baseball adven tures and as a result may see little action in the final intra squad tilt. Another end possi bility, however, who has not shown up too well the last week but is expected to regain form this afternoon is sticky fingered Art Milne, one of the finest pass receivers on the coast this season. Expected to start at the tackles are -Chuck Elliott and Curt Des kins although these positions are not at all certain. Big Howie Frary may edge Elliott out at the left tackle spot or perhaps Bob Roberts. At the other tackle berth both Harry Edwards, letterman last year, and Pete Miller have a good chance of easing into a start ing berth. Miller’s chances, es pecially, look very good, as Deskins may not be in uniform this after noon. Though not appearing today, a pair of stalwart tackles prospects bear mention. They are Don Stan ton, frosh numeral winner in 1942, and Ray Blatchley, who was tried out at a fullback slot earlier this spring. Expected to start at the guards are big Ted Meland and John Kauffman. Kauffman, however, has not been feeling too well and may be replaced by the little fighter Tony Novacic. Offering competition at the other post is Bill Murphy, who has thus far this season refused to take a back seat in any battle for a guard berth. At center for the number one eleven will undoubtedly be the big blond—Brad Ecklund although Jim Berwick, a converted guard, has been showing up very well at the pivot post. (Please turn to page fire) yet—one lucky win could change the entire complex of the meet. That’s how close it should run! ATO Courtmen Defeat Chi Psis The Alpha Tau Omega intra mural tennis team yesterday swept Psis two matches to one. The feature m^tch of the day was the one played by the second doubles team. The match went three sets before the ATOs finally defeated their stubborn opponents. Don Carney, playing singles was the only Chi Psi to turn in a win by defeating Boone in two sets. The first set of the match was 6-3 but the second set went to 10-8. Doubles scores: Hume and Wil son, ATO, defeated Heed and Niederholzer, 6-3, 6-2; Brown and Franks, ATO, defeated McClintock and Ambrose 3-6, 6-2, 6-4. over the tennis team OSC Netmen Face UW Today Today in Seattle, the star-stud ded University of Washington Hus kies, current Northern Division conference leaders, will tangle with the Beavers of Oregon State col lege. This will be a crucial match as the Beavers are tied with the Oregon Ducks for second place. The Ducks will meet the Huskies on May 18, in Seattle. Idaho’s Van dals played the Huskies and lost all but one of their seven matches to them. The number one man of Idaho, Goodman, defeated Wash ington’s top man.
