Over Pelicans
The Oregon frosh baseball team
opened its season on Howe field Fri
day with a 15-3 win over Klamath
Falls High School. The Ducklings
got 11 hits and capitalized on cost
ly Pelican etrors as they ran up a
15-0 fburth inning lead and coasted
to victory in the eight inning game.
The winners had effective four
hit pitching from righthanders Bill
Bottler, Don Hull, and Jim Bagby.
Bottler started the game and al
lowed only one hit in three innings
while striking out five. Hull limited
the Pelicans to one single in the
next two frames. All three Klamath
runs were scored in the final three
innings with Bagby on the mound.
Offensively, frosh first sacker
Bob Brittain unloaded a triple over
the left fielders head to drive in the
three first inning runs.
The second inning saw the frosh
fashion an eight run outburst off
Fred Friedel from a combination of
two doubles, two singles, and four
Klamath errors. Dick Stearns and
Ron Phillips drove in two runs each
with a double and a single respec
tively.
In the third inning lanky outfield
er Phillips teed off on a F'riedel

runs in ahead of him.
\M Boll Games
Feature Slugging
Powerful hitting anti a pair of
top pitching performances high
lighted intramural softball league
action Friday.
Nestor unleashed the most pow
erful hitting display as they ham
mered out a 19-0 victory over Min
turn. Almost eclipsing the slugging
prowess of the Nestorites was the
one hit pitching of a pair of Nestor
moundsnV'n. Ted Martin allowed
one hit and Gene Hilfiker allowed
none in hurling the winners to their
lopsided victory.
Campbell Club also had an easy
time with the Yeomen. They scor
ed 16 runs while the losers crossed
the plate once by virtue of an in- 1
field hit and a flock of errors in the |
last inning. Ed Hieno of Campbell
Club' went into the last inning with
a no-hit game almost in his grasp, i
Tan Kappa Epsilon put on a last
ditch rally to score five runs in the
final inning and eke out a 10-9 vic
tory over Lambda Chi Alpha.1
Lambda Chi led 9-5 going into the
final inning.
Sigma Phi Epsilon was forced
to stave off a lasL minute rally be
fore they could rack up a 12-10 win
over Pi Kappa Phi. The Sig Kps
led 12-5 at the start of the final
frame. Pi Kappa Phi was finally re
tired with.a man on every base.
Delta Upsilon rambled to a lop
sided victory over Omega, 11-0 in
another slugfest. Blair led the hit
ting attack for the winners with a
homer and a triple. Frank Johnson
pitched a two hitter for Delta Upsi
lon.
Sigma Chi encountered a tough.
Sigma Nu team and was forced to |
go all out to collect a 3-1 victory.
Both teams collected more hits than
the score indicates but were unable
to bunch them together.

alty in sports history? A pork-bur-•

lina he asked for 20 naval yards.
