Mel Krause Set
To Open Series
On Road Trip
If things don’t follow form
this afternoon, just as they fail
ed to do a week and a half ago,
then Don Kirsch and his league
leading Webfoots will be a hap
py bunch of boys after they fin
ish battling it out with Wash
ington State at Pullman.
It seems that when Buck Bailey
brought his ND favorites here a
short while back, he was tendered a
rather rude welcoming in the form
of two upset defeats. Kirsch hopes
to turn the same trick this time,
and in order to help matters, he’s
sending the same two pitchers
against the Cougars who had so
much success with them last time.
MEL KRAUSE will open for the
Ducks today, giving a sendoff to
Oregon’s six-game road trip around
the circuit. Windup of the series
comes Saturday with Sid Mills pit
ching, and then the Lemon-and
Green moves on to Idaho, and after
that, to Washington.
Whom the colorful Mr. Bailey
plans to send opposite Krause is
anyone’s guess, but indications are
that it might be Ward Rockey, his
top ace.
Oregon is in good, out not excel
lent shape for the series. Don Kim
ball. long hitting third baseman, is
still bothered by a leg injury and
chances are that his effectiveness
will be cut down measurably.
HE MAY NOT even be able to go
the full route against the Cougars.
Firstbaseman Dick Bartle is having
his troubles, too. The big fellow has
a painful back ailment which, al
though it won't keep him out of the
lineup, will hamper him to some ex
tent.
Otherwise the whole squad is in
fine fettle.
Besides Rockey, Washington
State will likely throw Big Bob
Arps against the Ducks—at least in
one of the tilts any way.
IT WILL BE recalled that in the
last series Arps hurled seven spark
ling innings in relief, giving up only
five hits and two runs.
That the Cougars lost 8-6 was no
fault of his. So Bailey will probably
dig him up and send him out again
against Oregon.
The Cougars, winners of the ND
title the past two years, are a vete
ran outfit. In Tom Marier, crack
thirdbaseman, they possess one of
the finest infielders in the league.
THIS is Oregon's first, and also
last, big swing around the loop,
and consequently it is an all-im
portant one.
If things don’t follow form today
and tomorrow, then the picture,
from a Duck standpoint, will bright
en considerably.
They need at least an even break
with the Cougars, and they are pit
ching their number one and two
men, Krause and Mills, in an effort
to get it.

WSC Links Aggregation
Arrives for Today'sMeet
Arriving in Eugene Thursday
afternoon from Pullman, the
Washington State College golf
team ran through a workout at
the Eugene country club in prepa
ration for their conference match
today with the undefeated Oregon
Webfoots.
The Cougar linksmen stopped
over at Corvallis to shake some of
the travel rust from their clubs
and limber up.
Duck Mentor Sydney Milligan
gives his hard-working squad no
better than a fifty-fifty chace to
win over the Cougars at the Eu
gene country club.
Fearful that his Webfoots might
develop a case of staleness, Milli
gan cancelled all challenge rounds
until after today’s WSC match.
IN LINE with that cancellation
there will be double challenge
rounds early next week, which will
afford the golfers opportunity to
move up two notches on the squad.
The top six linksmen, slated to
take the firing line this afternoon,
are Dom Provost, John Eckstrom,
