SIX NEW RECORDS
Oregon Wins Track Opener
Oregon’s clndcrmen started what
was predicted to be a very gloomy
season by walloping the Idaho
Vandals, Saturday, 84-47 in the
I Northern Division dual meet op
ener in Eugene.
Six new records were set, four of
them by Idaho’s “big three,” Lou
Ooruley, Emerson Clark and Bruce
Sweeney. Sweeney, Idaho’s one
man team, lived up to his reputa
tion by smashing records in both
the broad jump and the low hur
dles. He took three first places
and tied for a four to account for
more than one-third of his team’s
-score for the afternoon.
Sophomore Doug Clement, Ore
gon’s ace mid-distance man, also
accounted for two new records.
