At Hayward Held this Saturday, Oregon's track team will
renewed its thirty five year rivalry with the Washington Husk
" '• * riv*lry w^ich has seen the men from the north seize 21
of the M meets held between the two teams, while the Web
foots have won only II.
l-'rom the looks of things, it appears that the Ducks have
c|ttite a ways to go before they can even the count with Hec Kd
mtindson’s men of the Purple and (.old.
Meet Should Be Close
\\ lien the meet begins at I :30 this Saturday, it will be next
to impossible to predict which of the two squads will return
to the dressing rooms with a victory under its belt. A run
down of the individual events will indicate the probable close
ness of the meet.
In the sprint events, the 100 yard dash and the 220, Oregon
should take both first and second in both races, with Bill Fell
and Jerry Mock placing in that order. Fell ran a 9.7 century at
the Willamette Relays last weekend, and it looks as if he will
. be in top form for this meet.
In the quarter mile race, it look- as if the Huskies will take
.'is point-, with Oregon getting second place and receiving
t' lee. Oregon ha no lettennen in this event, and it will be
up to Sophomore led Anderson and Doug Clement, a fresh
man, to carry the mail for the Duck .
Hutchins Picked in Half Mile
In the halt mile, Senior lack Hutchins, a two-vear ietterman
should win the event for the Wcbioots, with Washington tak
ing second and Al Martin of Oregon, a sophomore, finishing in
third. Result, Oregon six points, Washington three.
I he mile run must be rated as a to-.- up, but in view of the
fact that the meet is to be held in hugene, the edge goes to
Oregon distance man Fred Turner, who will be traveling over
familiar ground.
Freshman Wayne Rei-er should win the two-mile marathon
for < h'egon, but it looks as if the other two places will go to
the Huskies.
Washington, with Morris and Wedenfeldt, should take first
and second spots in both the low' hurdles and the highs, to pick
up 16 points, while the Webfoots will probably glean only two
counters from these events.
The high jump will probably go to Washington, through the
efforts of Wedenfeldt. but second and third places cannot be
predicted. Chuck Phillips and Walt liadorek will be two of
the ()regon men in the event.
McClure Vs. Wedenfeldt
'I he broad jump should be a lively contest between the
talented \\ edenfeldt for Washington and ()regon’s consistent
2d-foot juniper, Don McClure. This event could go either way.
On the basis of performances this season, Washington may
very well sweep all nine points in the shot-put event. Chet
Noe, the Webfoots' top man in the shot, may dislodge one of
the Husky putters, however.
Another nine points may go to Washington in the discus,
also. None of Oregon’s platter-throwers have lettered in the
event, and there is little likelihood that any of the Ducks will
place in the top three.
Oregon Has Good Vaulters
Chuck Missfeldt, Oregon’s All - American javelin tosser,
- should take first in his event, but the other two places are in
doubt. Sophomore Brian Weddell may pick up a point in this
- event.
Oregon is very strong in the pole vault, with Ed Robison,
. Ray Packwood, and Russ Mannex all capable of clearning 13
feet. All of these three placed in the Willamette Relays last
« week, as did Ken Higgenbottom, a freshman.
> A- things stand right now, it appears that the meet will be
* verv close right down to the final event, the relay, which might
* decide the final outcome of the afternoon’s proceedings.
State Tourney Recap
To return to basketball once more, the Athletic News Bureau,
under the direction of Art Litchman, has issued its report of the
* 34th Annual Class “A” High School Basketball Tournament,
and a number of interesting fact have been brought to light.
For instance. Swede Halbrook, Lincoln high school’s seven
- foot center and an all-state selection, poured 79 field goals and
12 free throws through the hoops at McArthur Court during
the tourney, for a total of 166 points in four games. This gives
big Wade an average of 41.5 points per game, which is higher
than the previous record for points scored in a single game.
Needless to say, Coach Jim Partlow’s Lincoln Cardinals took
the championship, defeating the pre-tournament favorites, Cen
». tral Catholic, in the finals. Third place went to still another
’ Portland team, Cleveland, while Marshfield of Coos Bay finish
ed fourth and Salem received the.filth place trophy.
Phi Delts Beat Phi Psi;
Sigs, Cherney Triumph
By Doug White
In Wednesday's intramural soft
ball action, two games were played
in which the final outcome was in
doubt until the last moment, while
; 'n two other contest# the wdnners
' held comfortable margins.
In the two closer games Phi Dcl
: ta Theta eked out a 6 to 5 tri
1 irnph over Phi Kappa Pai; and
Cherniy hall defeated French hall
' h.y a H to 6 count. In the more lop
sided affairs Minturn hail downed
Alpha hall 10 to 2 and Sigma Chi
shut out Delta Upsilon 7 to 0.
Phi Delta Win
The Phi Delt-Phi Pai fracas waa
iaat on the agenda of Wednesday's
games, but as things turned out, it
proved to be the most exciting.
T he Kincaid St. crew opened up
j the scoring in the bottom half of
the second inning when they push
ed across four unearned runs. The
uprising was sparked by Perry’s
ringing two-bagger.
Down but not yet out, the Phi
Psis came back in the top half of
the third inning with three tallies.
Don Johnson’s two run triple was
the big blow in this rally.
After Phi Delta Theta waa held
scoreless in the home half of the
third, their opponents picked up
another, the tying run to bring
the count to 4 apiece.
The fifth and final stanza saw
Wayne Ballantyne get on base via
the four-ball route, and reach
i second on a Phi Delt error. He then
scored as Johnson again came
through with a base hit. This put
I the Phi Psis ahead by one run,
but their lead was short-lived, as
an aroused Phi Deit club came
from behind to score two runs and
win tiie ball game.
“Spider” Farnum got an 'Annie
Oakley,’ went to second on a
pass'd ImM, stole third and scored
on Bud Covey’s beautiful hu:;t.
Covey, too. reached third base anil
minutes later scored when Pitcher
Ceee Clay l>cat out a slow roller to
short.
For the winning Phi Delta Clay

JV's Play Eugene
(Continued from page four)
few sessions and his timing is poor
at bat, but he has all of the
physical qualifications to be a good
baseball player.
Clean up hatter Bob Wagner
will hold down the first base posi
tion. l’aul Byhres and Jim John
son will hold down the keystone
corner again.
Bill Loch will get the nod as
starter at third base, but he will
no doubt be replaced by Gene
Duncan at some point during the
game. Duncan has been hitting
better than Loch, but Loch is by
far the smoother fielder.
Outfield Is Strong
Neil Marlett of Lincoln high in
Portland will start in right field.
Londahl expects big things from
the big bat of Marlett and to
morrow may be his day. Jim
Spiekerman, who has looked good
in the outfield will start in center
and big Jim Tennyson will hold
down the right field berth. Tenny
son was instrumental in the win
against Eugene earlier this season
as he hit three for four, one of
which was a triple.
This game with Eugene high
tomorrow will be the last contest
for the JVs before they meet the
OSC JVs, unless they are able to
schedule a game with Springfield
high for Saturday.
Hal Lemons was hung with the
loss.
In another close one between
two freshman dorms, Cherney hall
took the measure of French hall
8 to 6. Bob Hinman handled the
pitching chores for the winners
while Jim Stuart took the loss.
i p (<> the third inning the game
was closely played, Cherney gar
nering two in both the first and
second stan/.us, and French push
ing across four tallies in the sec
ond. After French got another run
in the top of the third inning,
Cherney nahhed four big runs to
einch the victory.
Hinman started the .show with a
base on bails. He was then follow
ed by a booming triple off the bat
of Chuck Springer. An error sand
wiched between singles by Chris
tensen and Scoville netted another
three runs for the victors. The
next inning saw French register
a harmless run.
Jim Calderwood ar.d his Sigma
Chi teammates made short work
of the boys from Delta Upsilon
House. The Senior Sig gave up
only two hits as lie blanked the
DUs 7 to 0. George Johnson took
! the rap for the losers.
Sig-1)1' Game Close At Start
Things were fairly quiet for the
first few innings until the Sigs
garnered four big counters that
put them in the lead once and for
all. The hitting spark was fur
nished by Stu Richardson, Dick
Petzoldt, Doug Rogers and pitcher
Calderwood.
The performance of Sigma C'hi
definitely puts them in a con
tending position for league leader
ship.
The last contest on Wednesday’s
slate took place between Alpha
hall and Mintum hall. Displaying
the same form that won them the
IM football crown, and put them
in the championships for basket
ball, the boys from Mintum turn
ed on the gas in the early innings
and kept things hot for the Alphas
| all during the contest.
Minturn chucker, Gene Hilfiker
was superb as he gave up only
two hits in the whole game. These
two blows, by Gene O'Brien and
; Eddie Wah respectively, came in
the last half of the first inning
and accounted for both of the
1 losers' runs. Wah took the loss for
Alpha.
