In ND Meet
By DAVE TAYLOR
Going out on a limb against
the popular choice of most
sports writers in the northwest,
we pick the Oregon trackmen
to pull a Fonder. Truman, or a
Washington Senator upset to
day in Seattle, by dumping the
Washington State Cougars 52
4(> to capture the Northern Di
vision track championship,
Washington, Oregon State, Mon
tana, and Idaho are figured to fol
low the leaders in that order, with
28, 24, 9, and 3 points respectively.
IN TAKING their first ND track
bunting since 1934, Coach Bill Bow
erman’s Ducks should get firsts in
the 100, 220, pole vault, broad jump,
javelin, and mile relay, for the bulk
of the points.
The Cougars follow right on
Webfoot tail feathers, as they are
Expected to rack up five blue rib
bons in the 440, both hurdle
events, 880, and the shot put.
This is caluculated with the ail
ing Joe Nebolon taking the 440
yard dash, but lacking the depth to
bring home a mile relay victory for
Coach Jack Mooberry. Nebolon has
been out of competition for the past
month because of a pulled leg mus
cle.
TOP INDIVIDUAL, athlete en
tered today is Oregon’s George
Rasmussen, Northern Division, Pa
cific Coast Conference, and NCAA
j>olo vault king. His 14-foot, 6-inch
leap at the Klamath Falls Invita
tional is the best outdoors vault
made by a PCC undergraduate
since 1941.
Behind Rasmussen, the Ducks
have Don Firkins, who is easily
the second best among ND pole
riders, and Lloyd Ilickok, who
consistently goes up to 18 feet.
With this comfortable bulge in
the vault, Bowerman can look to
sprinters Dave Henthorne and A1
Bu’.lier, javelin tosser Lou Robin
son, and broad jumper Woodley
Lewis to give him other first and
second place points.

Double Header Scheduled
At 1 on Howe Diamond;
Krause to Start in Opener
With second place in the Northern Division baseball chase
as the bait, Oregon and Oregon State will go at it today in a
doubleheader, beginning at 1 o’clock on Howe Field, weather,
permitting.
Rain caused postponement of the Corvallis game yesterday
and threw the “Civil War’’ series off schedule, forcing a twin- „
attraction this afternoon.
DON KIRSCH’S second place Ducks need at least a split in
order to insure themselves of
their third straight second place
ND finish. A brace of defeats
this afternoon would send Ral
ph Coleman's Beavers riding
into the runner-up slot by a
one-half game margin.
If, however, the Ducks do the
double defeating', then it still
wbuld not change their status in
the standings, for Washington
State has already nailed down
the pennant.
Mel Krause will toe the hill for
the Webfoots today in the curtain
raiser. Just who will go in for the
finale depends on how many pitch
ers Kirsch uses in the first game.
THE DUCK coach stated that he
does not plan to hold anyone hack
for the second tilt and will use as
many hurlers as needed in the open
er.
Coleman has not announced his
choice for today’s clambakes, but
it is expected that Rick Erickson
and Chuck Suavain will handle
the better part of the chores.
Oregon State will be handicap
ped to some extent by the fact that
Sophomore Shortstop Gene Tansel
li may have to sit this one out be
cause of an injured wrist.
IN SUCH an event, Harry Rich
ards will move over from second
base to short while A1 Edwards will
take over Richards’ old post.
Today’s games are particularly
interesting from an individual
standpoint in that they will bring
together three of the division’s
leading swatsmiths. Frank Roe
landt, OSC catcher, is pacing the
loop with a remarkable .520 aver
age while Johnny Kovenz and A1
Cohen are both in the .400 brack- -
ets.
Ducklings Lose
Tennis Go, 4-3
The undefeated Klamath Falls
Pelicans came through with a nar
row 4-3 victory yesterday over the .
Oregon Frosh tennis team in a
match played on the local courts. '
A split in the doubles contests, ‘
added to three singles triumphs,
provided the Pelicans with their
winning margin.
Duckling singles winners were
Tom MacDonald, who blanked .
Bruce Dingier, 6-0, 6-0, and John
Kerns, who came from behind to
post a 5-7, 7-5, 6-4 decision over
Everett Karnes.
For the southeners, Bob Petzolt
notched a 6-2, 6-1 win over Joe Viel
big; Ron Lowell tripped Gerald
Berreman, 6-3, 4-6, 6-4; and Wayne
Guyer drubbed Martin Meadows by
scores of 6-2 and 6-4.
In doubles competition, the Frosh
win was turned in by MacDonald
and Kerns, who subdued Karnes
and Dingier by a 6-0, 6-2 count. -
However, Klamath Falls cinched
its win when Lowell and Petzolt .
pulled out a 6-4, 5-7, 6-4 win over
Berreman and Vielbig.
