In a nerlea of three article* giv
ing a preview of (he teamn that
will oppose the l!nlver»lty of
Oregon In the NCAA baseball
tournament at llowe field.)
Led by their outstanding
second baseman. J. 1). Peter
son, the Fresno State Bulldogs
will come into the W estern Re
gional NCAA playoffs for third
year since the origination of
the tourney.
The Bulldogs are not consid
ered to be as strong this year
as in the past but are well re
spected by the other three
teams in the playoffs. Fresno will
play its first game in the big affair
against Southern California's pow
j erful Trojans in the second game
of the program Friday afternoon.
Peterson, who is the leading
j hitter and fielder for the Bulldogs,
! will probably be one of the best
j infielders that Oregon baseball
, fans have ever seen in action on
! Howe field. Peterson has a lofty
‘ 303 batting average this season
' and is one of the most sought
j after by professional scouts of any
' player in the California Baseball
! association.

NORTH AMERICAN HAS BUILT MORE AIRPL^lfcS TJ# ■ OTHER COMPANY IN THE WORLD
"O.K.. . You’re on your own”
Moments ag6 his'instructor said, “Good luck son.
Now you try it alone!’ And as the young cadet turns
to his plane he feels a sudden thrill run, through
him. He is sure he’s ready... after those long
months of; tough, hard training. And he is ready.
He’ll win his wings, because those who chose him
know he has the qualities a pilot must possess.
You too can know the same thrill that young
man feels now... if you have the stuff in you to
become an aviation cadet. Ahead of you lies a great
adventure... flying with the U. S. Navy or Air
Force in the planes that guard our nation’s shores.
You’ll meet them all. Plane’s like this T-28, North
American’s trainer for the Navy and Air Force,
that outflies many World War II fighters. And
when you’ve won your wings you may graduate to
a squadron that flies FJ-3 Fury Jets, Korea-famed
F-86 Sabre Jets... or Arqeirica’s fastest produc
tion jet fighter, the supersonic F-100 Super Sabre.
Yes, there’s high adventure ahead for you, if you
take the challenge a flying career in the services
offers now... if you’re ready to be on your own.

North American Aviation, Inc.

nament with a won-loss record of
23 and 12. They* won the CB.v
with comparative caw* over sec
ond-place San Jose State.
The Bulldogs will be In some,
what of a weakened condition
when they start the plnyoffH. Their
three top pitchers, Bob Dolg, Bud
Mecham and George Millhoni, are
all freshmen at the California
school and will be forced to miss
NCAA action because of a special
eligibility ruling. Doig had a six
won and one lost mark for the Bull
dogs, Mecham a 4-1 slate and Mlll
hom was undefeated In four
games.
With these three top flingers out
of action, the Bulldogs will more
than likely send Ted Wills to the
firing line for the first game
with the Trojnns. Wills has won
'four and lost four in nction this
season. Other Fresno pitchers who
will see action in the tourney will
be Jack Hannah. 1-2; Body Gar
cia, 3-4; nnd Jack Altman. 1-0,
All have shown signs of ability
this year but none of them have
been consistent.
Pluilr Good Hitter
Besides IVterson’s team leading
baiting mark, two other Bulldogs
have been clouting the ball fre
quently and solidly. First-base
man Bob Phair has a .34ft aver
age and third-sacker George Dela
torre ha? a .340 mark. Both are
extremely dangerous batters in th<*
clutch.
Other starters for the Fresno
nine will likely be: Bob Bennett,
catcher: Bon Hager, shortstop;
and Bill Pearson, Ben Souders and
Don Farris In the outfield.
The Bulldogs have a team bat
ting average of .238 for the sea
son.
