Northern Division Titles
Trenton Huls Pitches
Crucial Baseball Win
' Jrr^on s Ducks sewed up
tlu- Northern Division baseball
championship at Howe field
Sat urday afternoon when I'ren
ton lluls pitched a five-hit
shut out to down the Oregon
State Reavers, 4-0.
Ry virtue of the victory the
Ducks earned themselves a
berth in the NCAA Western
Regional playoffs which will start
at Howe field next Friday after
noon. The other entries in the
tourney will be Southern Califor
nia. Fresno State and Seattle uni
versity.
Huls, who had been having
tumble with his control in games
of late and hadn’t finished a tus
-l<- In almost a month, was invinc
ible on this particular afternoon.
The booming OSC bats were com
pletely stopped and, except for the
fifth, the Heavers were unable to
get more than one blngle In any
one inning.
Wilson Hurls Well
Dxk Wilson, the Staters’ prize
sophomore pitcher who won over
the Webfoots last Monday, was
Ralph Coleman’s pitching choice
for the all-important league decid
ing game. Wilson hurled good ball,
giving up only six hits, but he had
the misfortune to have one bad
Inning and that cost him the ball
game.
Wilson held the Ducks score
less in every inning except the
fourth. Don Klrsch’s nine ptlt
together two hits, a pair of
walks, and an OSC error to tally
all their rnns. The big inning
started for Oregon when .Jerry
Itoss got to first on a walk. John
Keller gained life on Wilson’s
wild throw to first and both men
advanced one haw while first
basi iiian Jay Dean was chasing
the ball. This put men on second
and third with none out.
Dangerous George Shaw lined
out to Hob Buob at shortstop for
the first out but four pitches later
the bases were all loaded as Wil
son gave Norm Forbes an inten
tional haw on balls. Wilson's stra
tegy in walking Forbes was a hope
that Dick Schlosstein, the next
batter, would hit an infield
grounder and the Beavers could
end the inning with a double play.
It whs a good idea but on thin
particular occasion It didn't work
out na planned. Schlosstein, not in
a complying mood, blooped a
"Texas League'’ single to right
field and Ross came in with the
first run of the tilt.
Williams Hits
Catcher Neal Marlelt gained an
RBI as next man up when he
grounded out to infield bringing
Keller from third. With two outs
under his collar, it appeared as
though Wilson had everything un
der control at last. But Pete Wil
liams of the Ducks had other ideas
and sent a screaming single to left
field to score Forbes and Schlos
atcin with the final two markers
of the inning.
Huls had had some shaky inn
ings up until then, but when he
found himself with a four run lead
lo work on he became very stingy.
In the fifth Jim W’ithrow and Bob
Buob singled with one out but
Huls quickly quieted the threat
by forcing Jerry Exley and Jay
Dean to fly out to Forbes In right.
The Klrschmen tried hard to add
to their lead in th“ late innings
but could never quite get another
score across the plate. In the sixth
Shaw opened the inning with a
doublet down the left field line but
he. along with Mariett, who walk
ed wiLh two out, were left strand
ed as Williams grounded to the
pitcher.
In the seventh inning Jerry
Roes Clouted a long triple to
right field with two outs but
was out at the plate when he
tried to steal home. John Kel
ler's Inning opening double in
the eighth went for naught as
Wilson and relief pitcher Al
(iuidotti put the next three men
down In order.
With the h'D championship
hanging in the balance In the
ninth, Huls struck out Doug Wray
and retired Jack Stephenson on a
fly. This put the Ducks w'ithin one
out of the title. Pinch-hitter Norb
Wellman prolonged the agony for
Huls and his teammates when he
poked a scratch double to right,
but Rchlosstein pulled down With
row's liner down the first base line
to end the game.
For Oregon the win marked
their second straight Northern Di
vision title. Last year the Ducks
edged the Beavers by one-half
game to take the pennant.

transfer from Santa Rosa JC, in
the 440; and the relay team, which
