Gary Bergen told newsmen
Thursday he was not "pressured"
to transfer to Utah by Redskin
Coach Jack Gardner or anybody
else.
Gardner was censured by the
NCAA Wednesday for "unsports
manlike and unethical” conduct
concerning Bergen's transfer.

Ait Bunte, who transferred
from the University of Colorado
along with Bergen, said he came
to Utah simply because he was
"unhappy" with the Big Seven
Buffaloes, and "that's all there
was to it."
The NCAA's policy-making
council said Gardner used decep
tion in “an obvious effort to
persuade them (Bergen and
Bunte) to transfer."
Bunte was the conferenee
scoring king last season. He
averaged 18.8 points per game

National Open champion Ed Fur

tied for the lead with 69s Thursday
in the first round of the $37,000
Tournnment of Champions.
Sam Snead, the favored so-called

for the third straight year in this
event, shooting a disappointing 74

of 21 professional golfers.
Playing under bright, warm

the windup of the first 18 holes
found 11 players shooting under

Jim Bailey of the Ducks in what
should be an assault on Link's
meet record of 1:54.1. Bailey has
topped two marks in a row and
will be looking for his third.
Mile Mark Threatened
Oregon miler Bill Dellinger
will try for the 4:18.6 time set by
Bill Parnell for WSC in 1951 and
school record holder Ken Reiser,
also back from the flu seige, has
a good chance to lower the meet
two mile standard of 9:27.3 set
in 1953 by the Cougars’ A1
Fisher. Reiser's school mark is
9:20.4, set against Idaho in the
first ND duel of this season.
Broad jumper Martin Pedigo
and javelin star Ed Bingharn
are other good bets for Duck
wins. Pedigo holds the North
west best mark of 23’ S'/2’’ for
this season and Bingham is
second to (NSC’s Jerry Church
with a 204’ 5” hurt.

Oregon State invade* the Uni

the varsity Ducks in a Northern
Division tennis match, the sec

Washington’s powerful Hus

es on both Irwin Harris' Bea

came out ahead of the Ducks
twice in dual competition, but
the match looms as an even one
this season.
Both teams are short on ex
perienced performers, with the
Ducks having four lettermen
and the Staters claiming two.
Bob Baker, Kon Carlson, Dick
Gray, Dick Hamilton and Don
Bonime will lead the Ducks,
while Pete Overton, Dick
Jacobson, Bob Jensen and Nor

The Ducks have been hamper
ed severely by the weather, as
have the Beavers, with Wash

Clem Labine received credit

At Chicago, Delock didn’t per

the White Sox tallied their only
run on a walk and singles by
Walt Dropo and Sherm Dollar.
The other Chicago hit was a
line single by Clint Courtney in

Frosh Clubs
Slate Action
Two Frosh teams will attempt
to get some action this weekend
when the freshman track team
hosts the Portland Track and
Field club and the tennis squad
travels to Springfield.
Coach Hilbert Dee’s fresh
man netters return for a sec
ond engagement with the
Springfield high school team to
day. Two weeks ago the Frosh
opened their season with a
convincing 6-1 win over the
Millers on the Oregon coarts.
The freshman track team will
also be in its second meet of
the season after being confined
by heavy spring rains. The Port
land club, made up mostly of ex
high school tracksters, will come
to Eugene Saturday to take on
Coach Bob McCollum’s squad.
The Frosh will rely on the
versatility of Sam Whitney,
Bob Drynan and Jack Morris
for their second win. Two
weeks ago the Frosh downed
Eugene high on Hayward field
by a 75%-44% count with the
trio winning seven events
among them.
The tennis team, with several
ex-high school stars on the ros
ter, will be led by Stan Kalapus
and Marvin Wood3. Other ex
pected starters incinde Brian
Booth, Phil Lowthian and Don
Robinson.
Idaho has never won a spring
sports championship. The Van
dals have never been higher than
third in baseball and once were
second in track—in 1942.
