> ND TRACK MEET
Beavers,
(Editor’* note: Till* |* the first
In si series of four stories that
will l>e print.!) as a preview of
* ‘he Northern Division track
n,<et which will he held this
u«'<»kf»ncl in Eugene.)
r' Th,‘ 2r,‘h running of the North
ern Division championship track
incct will be held on Hayward
- Llf*'1 ^Hlu,'day, beginning at 1 p.m.
I he meet is expected to be one of
the closest in history with Oregon,
- Washington and Washington State
all in the running for the top spot.
There will be just as close a
- battle for the cellar spot, however,
with Oregon State and the Idaho
Vandals running neck and neck
. f,,r lhe bottom. The Aggies beat
Idaho in their dual meet, but most
of the events which they won, they
. will n°t be able to score in against
the tougher competition.
OKC First in Javelin
► OSC, who is expected to come
out ahead in the struggle, is not
predicted to do better than cap
ture one first. Ralph Sutton has
come into his own in the javelin
after a poor start this season and
will be favored to win that event.
J'Try Church may also pick up
points in this event.
► Mery Brock is one of the better
sprinters in the division, but he
will be up against WSC's unbeaten
Bob Gary, one of the finest sprint
ers on the coast, so he is not ex
pected to finish better than second.
Don Chambers may be able to
( place in the hurdles, but he still
hasn't regained his form of last
I year. In the shot put, John Witte,
a hot and cold performer, could
| place as high as second, and he
will undoubtedly capture a few
b points for the Beavers.
■ The Vandals will capture more
■ first* than OSC but may end up
L In the cellar Is-cause of their
lack of depth. Coach Stan His
ermnn will bring three point win
J n,rs with him and should take
home three first places, all by
* the same man though.
1 Bruce Sweeney, the “Bob Ma
„ thias" of the Northern Division,
will bo favored in both hurdle
events and the broad jump. He is
1 unbeaten in these events this sea
l son and is a consistent and reliable
performer. In the mile, Emerson
b Clark, another unbeaten Idaho
star, may run into his first de
, feat. He beat Oregon’s A1 Martin
early in the year but Martin has
improved more rapidly than Clark.
| Gourley In Two Mile
Idaho’s only other consistent
. point winner, Lou Gourley, may
pick points in the two mile event,
but that lace will be a contest be
. tween Washington's Denny Meyer
and WSC's A1 Fisher. Bruce West
has turned in good distances in the
javelin but it is doubtful that he
will pick up any points.
In their dual meet earlier in the
season, OSC beat the Vandals by
a score of 93 to 38.
Gridders Start
Last Practices;
Passes Stressed
Coach Len Casanova started his
spring football squad through its
last week of practice Monday aft
ernoon. Four more days of drill re
main this week before the twenty
day spring limit is expired.
Although the weather was rainy
and the football wet, the team
practiced up its offensive and de
fensive aerial attacks. Under the
direction of Backfield Coach John
ny McKay, the Webfoot quarter
backs, Earney Holland and Don
Holt, polished up the passing game
in a lengthy drill.
Oregon's ends, a position that
was weak when the Ducks started
spring practice, are rounding into
shape with big Emery Barnes, Ben
Johnson, Len Berrie, and Tom El
liott looking good on offense and
defense.
The Ducks will have plenty of
depth in the halfback and fullback
positions. Included in a host of ex
ceptional halfbacks are Cece
Hodges, Dick James, Dick Pavlat,
Farrell Albright, Walt Gaffney,
and Lloyd Powell. Dean Van Leu
ven and Larry Rose are showing
well at the fullback slot.

be this Friday at Howe field at
3:00 p.m. If Friday's game is also
rained out, it will not be made up,
because of a PCC ruling which
says that only the first game of
a two game series can be replayed.
The winner of two of the next
three games will be crowned
Northern Division champ. In case
that only two games are played,
Oregon could take the title by
gaining a split.
Although the local nine is lead
ing the Northern Division, they
have only one regular hitting above
.300. Jim Livesay, Oregon's out
standng center fielder, is the
Ducks' top hitter with a .320 per
centage. He has 16 hits in 50 times
at bat.
Don Hedgepeth, who started the
last Oregon-OSC game at first
base, is the next in line with an
even .300 mark, three hits in 10
plate appearances. The next regu-'
lar is Ron Phillips, with a .261
mark.
Phillips Leads in RBI’s
Phillips, who drove in the win
ning run in last week’s OSC game,
is leading in the runs batted in
column with 10. Don Siegmund
follows with 8. Earl Averill, the
home-run king of the conference
the last two years, has failed to
connect with a round-tripper in
league action, but leads in runs
scored, 10.
