TAYLOR'S
Oil The Glenwood Strip
Oregon T ipsIdaho, 4-1;
Trenton Huls Fans 15
l<!al>o s baseball Vandals are
wondering today just what
happened to their booming
bats in 'I hursday afternoon's
contest with the ()regon Ducks
at Howe field. The Vandals,
although they haven’t won any
XD games to date, have al
wav- displayed a good hitting
attack, in all their tussles.
That la to aay, until Thursday.
In the final game of their series
with Oregon, Idaho found the
pitching arm of southpaw Trenton
Hula much too tough to handle
and went down to a 4-1 defeat at
the hands of the Jubilant Ducks.
Huts, hurling with the precision
of a professional, set the visitors
down with six measly hits and in
the course of the game struck out
15 Idaho batters. A fluke fly ball
dofible by first-baseman Bob
Haines in the ninth inning scored
Frank Teverbaugh from first base
to give the Vandals their only run
of the tussle. HuIh was that close
to a shutout.
Huls Kinds Victims
Two of Clem Barberry's proud
players. Captain Mike Cygler and
shortstop Larry Morrison, were es
pecially allergic to Huls' slants.
Both of them whiffed four times
in four tries. Hard-hitting Bob
Falash was another of Huls’ vic
tims, going down on strikes three
times in his four trips to the plate.
All in all it was a great day for
Mr. Huls who was a last second
pitching choice of Coach Don
Kirsch. Right-hander Farrell Al
bright was supposed to go to the
firing line for the Ducks for this
game but he came up with a sore
arm just before game time and
Kirsch had to give Hula a rush call
to warm up.
Big Trenton, using a mixture of
drops and curves along with a siz
zling fast ball, was seldom in trou
ble during the game. In the third
inning singles by Reg Frazier and
Jerry Qu&nc put two men on base
but Huls quickly got out of this
jam by striking out pitcher Dick
Dodel, Falash and Cygler in suc
cession.
Almost a Shutout
After this threat had been
thwarted. Huls allowed only two
singles in the next five frames and

baseball captain, came out of a

Idaho-Oregon game. Williams
Mingled and scored one of the

went into the ninth with a shut- I
out very definitely in sight. Tev- !
erbaugh got on on a walk but Hula
forced Flip ICieffner to fly to right
and fanned Morrison to seemingly
squelch any Vandal hopes of scor-'
ing. But the next batter, Haines,:
looped a long fly to left which fell
just out of Bcmie Averill s reach
for a double and Teverbaugh came
all the way to tally.
Although Oregon’s batting on
slaught died down somewhat in
this game, the Ducks did produce
enough punches at the right time
to score the win.
The first marker came in the
third wrhen Huls and Bob Wagner
singled and George Shaw drew a
base on balls to load the bases.

Dodel was a little too careful and
walked him to force in Huls with
the first score of the game.
•Johnson Triples
The Ducks picked up two more
counters in the fourth. Captain
Pete Williams was hit by a pitched
ball. Second-sacker Jim Johnson
scored him with a triple to right
and then scored himself on John
Keller's one-baser just over the
shortstop's head.
The final Webfoot run came in

Oregon’s linksters are opening j
their defense of the Northern Di-<
vision dual match play crown to- '
day against Oregon State with
an all day, 36-hole match to be
played at Corvallis.
A vastly improved OSC team
will be out to stop the 26 dual
match play win streak currently
held by the Duck golfers. Oregon
State's team will be led by Dob ,
Donnelly, the state junior golf .
champion in 1952.
Don Krieger and A1 Mundle
form a capable pair to lead the .
Oregon team, however, the loss of '
Beltin’ Bob Atkinson, one of the
top amateur swingers in the state,
due to graduation will undoubtedly
be felt in their chances to nab
their sixth consecutive Northern
Division crov/n.
Justin Smith, Bob Takano, How- '
ard Zenger and A1 Cross will also
play important roles today in the *
Oregon chances of making it 27
matches in a row.
