Washington’s depth and exper
ience paid off on a wet field Sat
urday at Seattle, as the Huskies
bumped the Duck clndermen for
the first time in two years 77-54.
The Oregon tracksters turned in
brilliant performances, winning six
events and tying two others, but
lack of depth along with Wash
ington’s sweeps in the discus and
javelin combined to send the Web
foots down to defeat.
Oregon’s Al Martin turned in
the upset of the day as he outran
the ND champion Bob Fornia in
the mile with a time of 4:22.1. Ted
Anderson led the Oregon team
with victories in the 440 and the
low hurdles.
Anderson regained his 440 crown
by beating out Jack Burney, his

coast, swept that event with Hay

Springbett Wins Century
Bruce Springbett edged out Bob
Hutchinson in the 100 but Hutch
inson came right back in the 220
to beat Springbett. Oregon's Jerry
Mock finished third in both events.
Doug Clement won the 880, as
expected.
Washington’s George Widenfelt
didn't quite live up to expectations,
nut he did manage to score 15
points for the Huskies. He failed
to capture a single event although
he did tie for first in the high
Jump and place second in the jave

It was the fourth time in five
games that the Webfoots had
come from behind to win. Wash

the second frame via an Oregon
error, a stolen base and Bill Stuht’s
