man. the Webfoots will need to
score very heavily in the running
events to have a chance for the
victory. Oregon has a few good
field men but all-around strength
in the field events is lacking.
Strong Runners
On the other hand the Duck3
are expected to be quite tough in
the running events, especially In
the sprints and the distance races.
Leading the Oregon dash men
are Bruce Springbett and Ted An
derson. Springbett is being counted
on to score points in both the
100-yard dash and the 220. Ander
son will make his bid for honors
in the 440-yard dash.
In the middle distance runs Doug
Clement, if his leg is healed
enough, is expected to be hard to
beat. Clement was one of the top
880 men in the northwest last
season.
Good Milers
A1 Martin, Ken Reiser, and Bill
Dellinger are all very capable dis
tance runners and should give the
Ducks plenty of strength in both
the mile and two-mile runs. Martin
and Reiser are both lettermen and
Dellinger is up from last year's
Frosh team.
In the hurdle races the Ducks'
will pit Chan Sogge, their new
find from the Willamette relays,
against the field. Sogge ran a
very good jaunt at Salem last
Saturday;
Other Ducks who are expected
to perform well in the Portland
meet are Emery Barnes and Bob
Fawcett in the high jump, Ken
Hickenbottom in the pole-vault,
Jim Jones in the shot-put, Doyle
Higdon in the javelin throw, and
Bob Reed in the pole-vault and
broad-jump.

Indians May Sign
Hal Newhouser
By Affociitefl Pres*
It looks as If Hal Newhouser has
been successful in his comeback
attempt with the Cleveland Indi
ans.
Newhouser is scheduled to meet
w'ith General Manager Hank
Greenberg of the Indians in Cleve
land on Sunday. Presumably,
Greenberg will offer Newhouser a
contract.
Newhouser was granted his out
right release last summer after
pitching for 1-1 years with the
Detroit Tigers. Only 32, he asked
the Indians for spring trial and
pitched well. He showed no sign
of the arm ailment that bothered
him in his last few seasons with
Detroit.
At present, Newhouser is in Dt
troit visiting his family. He hinted
that Cleveland would sign him
when he explained his visit to
newsmen. He said he had asked
manager A1 Lopez of Cleveland
for a few days to visit with his
family and added: “During the
season I’ll be spending all my
time either in Cleveland or oa the
road."
