In attempting to down the Seat
tle nine of A1 Brlghtman, Don
Kirsch's Ducks will have no easy
lime. The Chiefs have an Impres
sive record of 23 wins and five
losses for the season. They are an
independent entry in the tourney
along with Fresno State.
Dork* Hold M'ln
In comparing the two teams It
is interesting to note that in an
early season game, Oregon downed
Seattle by a 5-4 score. Bob Wag
ner’s first inning home run with
the bases loaded gave the Oregons
an early lead which they refused
to give up.
The chiefs are expected to be
much tougher this time. Their star
pitcher, John Pastemicky, has
been improving constantly ull sea
son long and is considered to be
one of the top chuckem in the
country at the present time as far
a* college pitcher* go. Pastemicky
will no doubt be on the mound for
the Oregon game.
Although the Ducks' season rec
ord stands at 16 and eight as com
pared with Seattle’s impressive
mark, it should be considered that
the Webfoot* have been playing
much tougher competition in most
of their outings. The two teams
are considered to be about a toss
up by followers of the diamond
sport.
X 'SC Favored
In the second game on the tour
ney opening day schedule power
laden Southern Cal will be favored
to take the Fresno State nine, but
by only a slight margin. Fresno
is playing in its third NCAA tour
nament and in its previous two
appearances it has made itself well
known. This season Fresno has a
won-loss record of 23 and seven
and is the winner of the strong
California Baseball asso c i a t i o n

Woyatt, a white halfback recover
ed, giving white the ball on the
green 30. On a series of runs by
rom Crabtree, Dean Van Leuven,
and quarterback Don Holt, the
white team moved the ball down
to the green four yard line. On
the next play, Dean Van Leuven
took the ball and ran over for
the first score of the game. Tom
Crabtree ran the conversion for
the 7-0 score.
The green squad then took pos
session on their own thirty and
opened up. On a series of runs and
passes, freshman quarterback Les
Plumb moved his team down to
the white ten, where they were
when the first quarter gun sound-*
ed.
At the other end of the field,
Lloyd Powell took the ball fren
the ten to the four yard line, foe
