By Bob Robinson Emerald Sports Editor Oregon’s crack miler. Bill Dellinger, did himself proud in last Saturday’s PCC track and field meet at Seattle. Dellinger, only a sophomore, showed his heals to the favored California and t'SC runners and came home the winner of the r.ace in the terrific time of 4:14.8. Dellinger's finishing kick in the race left many spectators limp in the stands from amazement. In fifth place and trailing pacer Len Simpson of California by almost 50 yards going into the final lap, competitive Bill opened up .all .the. stops and v hipped around the oval with a 56 second last quarter to take home all the marbles. Dellinger passed Simpson midway in the home stretch and had a good five yard’Tead at the finish line. Dellinger, who did his prep running at Springfield high school, Was an unexpected winner of the race. Most experts figured he would do no better than fourth in the four-lapper. Another Santee? The fine showing of Dellinger in the distance races this sea son has furnished sports fans all over the state with some in teresting conversation material. Many are-comparing Bill with Ivansasjwnivers'ity's briHiaut miler. Wes Santee. Santee, when only a sophomore, was running the mile in about 4:10 to 4:15 In almost ah of hr? faces.,Then in his final two years of school, t»e cut his time down until now he is considered to be the sec ond best miler in the world, being second only to Roger Ban nister of England. ■ • ~ Dellinger lias a much different build than the gangly Santee, i>eing short and stocky, hut. Bill has the same kind of undying determination that lias made_Santee the terrific runner that he is and tlusTmore than anything else, could he the key to Bill's ■future. There is no doubt in our mind that Dellinger will con tinue to improve "by leaps and hounds in the next two seasons and it is our belief that-both-the Northern Division and PCC •nije records may go by the hoards next year or the season fol lowing. We think that the galloping hooves "of Bill Dellinger are a real threat to the standing marks. Clement, Reiser Look Good Two other Duck runners looked very good in the PCC meet. Doug Clement in the 880 and Wayne Reiser in-the two-mile, although neither won his race.,showed performances which can lie nothing but complimented. Clement ran the best half-mile of his career at Seattle and /unshed only inches behind first place Bill Link CTf Washington •kate. Clement ran the distance in just over 1 :53. Reiser, running in one of the best two mile fields in PCC his tory, also ran the top time of his career as he toured the eight laps in 9:21, three seconds better than his w inning time in the t\D meet one week earlier. Reiser finished fourth in the race which was won by Washington’s .Denny Meyer in the recojrd setting time of 9:09.1. ' - - •" - Track mentor, Bill Bowerman, has announced that he intends 4o enter Dellinger, Clement.and Reiser in the coming NCAA 4»ack and field meet. This should give them ayvonderful oppor tunity to show their abilities on a-national-basis. ~ What Happened to Southern Cal? Biggest boner of the baseball season occurred last week, when the-USC sports news director stated that the ’Trojans were going to do all right at Omaha because they had five fwtehers who could handle the chucking chores. Southern Cab -which evidently had forgotten that they had to win the West ern Regional tourney before they could makie thy Qtriaha tfip, were sadly lacking in the hurling department in-the recently completed regional.?. . T. Only Ralph Pausig looked real sharp for the "Trojans who won only one encounter while falling to Fresno State twice. -£\ e wonder just what happened to those five brilliant chuckers w ho were.snpposed to he so dependahle..„The. situation goes to show how unpredictable baseball is and how.much of a mistake »t is to be overconfident in the diamond snort. <A. . ..'.S', .. •. •• For the proud Trojans jk must have been quite a blow to bow twice in succession to little Fresno State, which wasn’t sup posed to have a chance against thy mighty men of Troy. The USC team and a good share of the baseball fans who watched -th'e game figured that the Trojans..had just had an off day when they dropped their first tilt to the Bulldogs. But when they took it on tire chin again Saturday from the same team, it was rather obvious thatjjie first day win by Fresno l\ad been mo fluke. - — - —“ ' . • This makes the second time during this school year that Southern Cal has travelled to Oregon floating on an imaginary victory cloud and both times they hare been knocked to earth with a jolting loss. The first occasion was last fall when Len Casanova’s underdog Duck football tearh outlasted the Trojans, *13-7, in a game at Multnomah stadium in Portland. Powerful USC Takes PCC Track Title with 70 Points Three Marks Fall In Conference Meet i ...
