By Buzz Nelson
Emerald Astittant Sports Editor
Leftfieldfr Jerry Ross smacked
two home runs and made a cir
cus outfield catch to pace Ore
gon to a 9-0 win over Portland
university on Howe field Tues
day.
Webfoot Coach Don Kirsch
used three pitchers—John Lun
dell. Bill Garner and Pete Wil
liams—each for a three inning
stint, and they combined effec
tively for a seven-hit shutout.
Ross's first homer came in
the first with the bases loaded
and two out. John Keller opened
the inning with a hit through the
box. and Jim Johnson, who like
Ross hit three-for-four, moved
him up with a bunt single.
A Grand Slam
George Shaw and Dick Schlos
stein went out. but Williams
drew a walk. Ross then slammed
a long drive over the bank in left
field for a grand slam.
The game rocked along at 4-0
until the seventh when Oregon
added a run on Ken Bond's sing
le, a hit by Keller, and Johnson’s
sacrifice fly.
The Ducks tallied four times
in the eighth for the final 9-0
score. Williams led off with an
infield single and Ross then
parked another homer over the
loft-center bank. Norm Forbes
flied out. but Marlett singled to
center. Bond and Keller both
got life on errors, Marlett scor
ing.
RBI for Johnson
Johnson then singled to cen
ter to score Keller, who had
moved to second on a steal. Shaw
walked, but Schlosstein flied out
to end the inning.
Ross and Johnson each smack
ed out three hits, and Ross had
six runs batted in to total 14
for the season, high for the Ore
gon team. In the Portland ninth
he made a brilliant catch of Len
Farrell's long fly to left. Ross
caught the ball at the top of the
bank and rolled down it parjt
way but held on to the horsehide.
The Oregon pitching was good,
with Garner turning in the best
three inning stint. The junior
lefthander set nine batters down

Shall we allow the continuation of the abuse to Oregon's
natural resources, abuse that will eventually produce an area
of dust, desolation and death? This i- a question that should
be given some thought by every student. The history of the
United States as a whole has been a story of uncontrolled ex
ploitation of natural resources with little thought as to what
would be left for future use.
Governor Patterson has declared this week as Oregon
conservation week. This is not a week designed to get every
one in the state out planting trees in the burned-over areas
or planting cover for wildlife. Rather, this is a week designed
to awaken the residents of the state and let them realize that
conservation is everybody’s business.
When natural resources disappear, animal, and consequent
ly human, life vanishes from the scene shortly afterwards. For
that reason, conservation is everyone’s responsibility.
Oregon Wildlife Abundant
Conservation week is designed to bring to the attention of
all Oregonians the need for wise use of our abundant natural
resources. Oregon is rich in wildlife, minerals, forests and
water, but only through constant interest and work by every
one can it remain that way. Our survival is dependent on wise
use.
All you need to do is to live the conservation pledge. “I
give my pledge as an Oregonian to save and faithfully to de
fend from waste the natural resources of my state ... its
soil and minerals, its forests, waters and wildlife.”
While we're on this subject of conservation, let’s see how it
applies to the trout season which just opened. Oregon fisher
men are a fortunate lot, for Oregon, unlike many other states,
still has miles of unpolluted streams and clear mountain lakes.
Also, because of the nature of the state, the variety of fish of
fered the angler here is as wide as in any state of the Union.
Law-Breakers Wreck Fishing
Whether this fishing continues, depends largely upon the
Isaac.Waltons themselves. Past acts of vandalism and disre
spect for the rights of others have closed segments of Oregon’s
fishing waters to the general public. Disregard for the regula
tions as set up by the Game Commission also jeopardizes fu
ture fishing.
Since fishing is one of our resources which can be con
tinued indefinitely if properly managed, why should we
spoil our future generations chances to enjoy the sport by a
few selfish acts.
Yes, trout season for this year is here. When you’re out
fishing, take time to meditate and remember future fishing
depends on your conduct. You hold the key to future fishing.
Respect for regulations and the rights of others will unlock
the door for years to come.

Cockell Thinks Rocky
Looks 'Easy to Hit'
SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (AP)
Challenger Don Cockell floored
a sparring partner Tuesday and ,
later, looking at films of Rocky
Marciano’s first fight with Joe
Walcott, remarked that the
champion “looks easy to hit.”
Cockell tangles with Marciano
for the heavyweight crown on
May 1G in an outdoor bout in
San Francisco’s Kezar Stadium.
“I’m sure I can outpoint Rocky
and win the title,” the pudgey
Britisher declared. “I might
knock him out, at least cut him
up, and win.”
Earlier Cockell decked spar
mate Grant Butcher with a left
hook to the jaw. It was the first
knockdown Cockell has regis
tered in 212 rounds of sparring in
preparation for the title bout.
