Unbeaten Oregon Golfers Rap OSC
Oregon’s varsity golf team outclubbed Oregon
State 20 to 7 at the Eugene country club Saturday
for the second victory over the Beavers in the cur
rent conference season and the seventh consecutive
dual match win.
The Webfoots now boast decisive wins over last
year’s defending champion Washington Huskies, Ida
ho, Washington State. Portland University, Univer
sity of British Columbia, plus the double victory over
Oregon State.
Sid Milligan's divoteers will be idle until May 24
when they journey to Moscow, Idaho, for the Northh
ern Division championship round over the nine-hole
Palouse layout.
Oregon found the Beavers pesky in the morning
best ball round, but found the range in the singles
competition. Webfoots Lou Stafford and Jim Duna
hoo dropped three points to John Frey and Bill John
son, and Ralph Dichter and Lee Lindquist picked
up another half point from Glenn Spivey and Dorn
Provost to give the Ducks a slim 1V2 point margin
The Webfoota tightened up in singles competition,
however, and scored 14 V2 points compared to 31
for Oregon State.
A trio of Oregon golfers—Stafford, Spivey, and
George Kikes—were the only ones able to find the
range. They shared medalist honors with even par
72’s.
Only four men will represent Oregon in the con
ference championship instead of the customary six,
and medal play is scheduled (with no give putts),
rather than match play.
Stafford and Spivey will probably hold their po
sitions but the battle for the remaining berths will
be between Rod Taylor, Bob Sederstrom, Dunahoo,
Kikes, Provost, and Bob Eckstrom. Taylor moved up
to the No. 4 position in front of Sederstrom in a
challenge match last week.
Van Brocklin Paces 26-19 White Win
In First Preview of Aiken Method
Coach Jim Aiken treated
Junior Weekend visitors to
some real football Saturday
when he turned loose his grid
ders in a full-length intra
squad fray. The Whites, with
Quarterback Norm Van Brock
lin running over one touchdown
and passing for three more, edged
out the Green eleven, 26 to 19.
Little time was wasted after the
game started before the first
touchdown was scored. The
Whites, with Don Stanton doing
the booting, kicked off to the
Greens. Two plays gave the Green
squad no gains, and they elected
to kick out. But a stiff wind stop
ped Fullback Ken Maine’s punt
and dropped the ball on their own
20-yard line. Two running plays
by Left Halfback George Bell and
Fullback Bob Koch of the Whites
put the pigskin on the third, and
from there Van Brocklin crashed
over on a quarterback sneak. The
try for point failed.
Van Brocklin to Garza
Five minutes later, from his own
30, Van Brocklin tossed a long
pass to Left End Dan Garza who
broke clear to paydirt. Bob Sand
ers, who played a limited amount
on offensive but showed plenty of
power, made his second try good,
to make the count 13 to 0.
That ended the scoring for the
first period, but shortly after the
second quarter started the pitch
ing quarterback let loose another
one, this time to Right End Lou
Robinson who snagged the ball on
the midfield stripe and galloped
down to the 15 before he was stop
ped. On the next play the per
formance was repeated and this
time Robinson went over. The
conversion failed, and the score
read 19 to 0.
Greens Open V’p
It looked as though it was going
to be a one-sided affair, but the
Greens started opening up with an

gressiveness Saturday in the inirasquad football game that will make j
him a contender for a first string berth on the Duck eleven next fall.
attack of their own. On a hand-off
play from Bill Abbey, Halfback
Bob Oas cut through rignt tackle
and raced through the secondary
from his own 30 to the 7 yard line
before he was hit. Quarterback
Abbey called a passing play on the
next try. and when all the receiv
ers were covered he packed the
leather through the scattered de
fense to score. The Greens’ con
version missed.
A few minutes later Ken Maine
powered his way through the line
and raced 55 yards to touchdown
territory. The extra point try
missed and the score stood 19 to
12 at halftime.
In the third quarter Var Brock
lin unleased another long one that
Robinson grabbed and carried 1
over. The quarterback then ap- i

extra point, for a 26 to 12 count, j
Early in the last quarter Abbey j
came through with a touchdown
pass to Oas and then booted the j
extra point to make the score 26
