that needed one point. Washington
had tough breaks too; they lost
their ace hurdler in the lows; Don
Wold, the beautiful Purple and
Gold distance runner, was scratched
from the half-mile due to sickness.
Grant Swan’s Beavers folded in
several events, WSC fluked off and
didn’t get points they were credit
ed with by the Seattle sports writ
ers—it all made for the best meet
in conference history.
Jake Leicht. Bill Beifuss, and
Bin Kydd led Oregon in its spec
tacular point-getting performance
by garnering firsts for Coach John
Warren.
Colonel Bill Hayward was sched
uled to fly to Seattle Saturday
morning but was stricken with
heart ailment as he prepared to
hoard the plane and was force'd to
stay in E/.gene. Bill wired his “off
Lhe train and into cars’’ team that
lie couldn’t make it and wished
them luck in the big battle.
Leicht upheld all those who con
tended that he would make the
vaunted WSC sprinter, Louie
Christensen, look like a piker in
the hundred. Christensen was sup
posedly credited with a :9.8 hun
dred somewhere along the season’s
way, but looked pretty poor as
Jake turned on the steam.
Nine false starts nerved the
sprinters before they finally got
iit- -..
off, and when they did Christensen
had jumped the gun, but the start
er, Stan Anderson, former Wash
ington star hurdler and current
hurdler record holder in the con
ference, didn’t call the boys back
and Jake was strides behind Chris
tensen, when heb left the blocks.
The WSC star tried to keep ahead
of rolling Leiclit, but didn’t have
the speed to prevent Jake's zip
ping by him and winning the race
by a yard or so. Jake's time in this
race was a fast :9.9.
Jake repeated his performance
in the 220, and Carl Maxey made
it one-two for the Ducks. Leicht
finished with a 21.7 time. Christen
sen folded after the first few yards,
claiming a pulled muscle.
Beifuss, hitting one of the “off”
days in his jumping career, cleared
only 6 feet 1 inch to win the high
jump. All the bounding men were
off and Bob E)arber, OSC’s top
6’3” jumper, went out at 5’6”, Ore
gon's Tom Garrity, definitely not
up to par, tied for fourth spot with
a 5-8 jump.
Javelin tosser Bill Kydd came
through in expected form and won
his event with a tremendous 194
foot 1 inch heave. Tossing his last
javelin in college competition,
Kydd picked up another needed
first for John Warren. Bill finishes
his dental training in Portland this
year and ended his throwing Sat
urday.
Andy Swan, Walt McClure, Wyn
Wroght, and Frank Deines, were

I the other Ducks who added points
! to the total.
| Swan captured second in the 440
I yard dash, just losing to Oregon
State’s O. B. Hughes in a tight
I race.
| McClure ran a pretty race in the
I half-mile, coming up from fifth on !
the last curv£. Walt forged into
second, close on W§C Dick Paeth’s
heels, but Bob Cherry, OSC, turned
on a bolting finish to edge him and
just lose to Paeth in one of the
day's hottest races.
Hurdler Wright had a repeat
performance of his WSC’s run, as
the end of the low hurdles was a,
photo-finish; Idaho’s Lake stum
bled several yards from the finish,
lunged his hand and shoulder
across as Wyn pulled ahead. Offi
cials gave Lake second and Wright
third.
Deinse was Oregon’s “tough
luck” boy in the pole vault as he
just missed 12’ 6” and tied with
four other vaulters for third and
fourth at 12 feet.
Washington’s Don Wold and
WSC’s Clem Eischen staged the
closest and most exciting run of
the day in their mile dual.
Wold trailed Eischen for three
laps, edged closer on the final
quarter and matched stride for
stride on the final curve with the
lanky Cougar runner. Hitting the
stretch, both runners opened up
with all they had and ran neck and
neck for 75 yeards. Little Wold
finally inched ahead as the Wash
ington fans rose and screamed the
little boy on.
The last 25 yards had Wold slow
ly gaining ground and as they hit
the finish, it was Wold by two feet!
The time was notable, 4:19, fastest
in the conference for the season!
