Ducks to Meet Pioneers In Second Game of Season The University of Oregon base ball team, weather permitting, will play their second game of the 1954 season tills afternoon, Tuesday, when they boat the Lewis and Clark Pioneers in a a o'clock tus hie at Howe field. The Webfoots, who downed Ore gon Htate last Thursday afternoon 5-3, were rained out of two week end games which they were sched uled to play in Portland. Monday afternoon the ball field was very muddy and it appeared rather obvious that It would take! much sunshine Tuesday morning ^ to dry it out enough for it to be ready for action by 3 o'clock. j Little Is known of the strength ' of the Pioneers, whose only game this season was a 11-0 loss to OSC. ' Against the Heavers the Portland-1 < rs showed very little strength In either tho field or at the plate. ■ However, It wars their season open er and the fact that they were fac ing the ace of the Oregon State I mound staff, Norb Wellman, may j have had much to do with the lop sided outcome of the fracas. Coach Don Kirsch of the Ducks will probably stick with the same starting line-up that he used against the Leavers last week and j if he does the starters will be: Neil Marlett, catcher; Dick Schlossteln, ] first base; Jimmy Johnson, second base; John Keller, shortstop; Pete] Williams, third base; Lernie Aver-! Ill, left field; (Jeorgo .Shaw, center field: and Bob Wagner, right field. On the pitching mound Kirsch will more than likely use his prize letterman right - hander, Norm Forbes. Forbes was the leading Duck hurler last year and was scheduled to start one of last week end's games if they hail been play ed. Kirsch will no doubt do some ex tensive substituting in the Oregon games this week which number five in all. He has many good re serve players on hand and he wants to give everyone a chance to nail down a starting berth who de serve! the opportunity.
