    OSC Cindermen Visit for ND Dual
By Chuck Mitchelmore
Emerald Co-Sports Editor
Hal Moe's Oregon State cinder
men help Oregon wind up Its
track schedule today when the
Beavers, winless in ND compe
tition this season, come to Hay
ward field to meet the defending
division champion Webfoots at
1:30.
Oregon State can count only
six returning letteriuen and
has had one of its poorest
track years on record In con
trast to the powerful Duck
squad which Bill Bowerntan
will field this afternoon.
Fifteen letter winners are back
from the 1954 Oregon squad that
swept the ND dual meet cham
pionship without a defeat and
edged Washington by one point
to take the Northern Division
meet title. In addition. Bower
man has been able to count on
BILL DELLINGER
Lead* Duck Distance Crew
fine performances from a fleet
of sophomores that have been
making mincemeat of dual meet
records this season.
Bill Dellinger. Springfield mil
er who swept his way through
ND. and Pacific Coast confer
ence wins on the way to the
NCAA mile championship last
year, returns to lead a Duck dis
tance crew that has few equals
in the nation. The flying junior
has doubled in the two-mile with
the absence of school record hold
er Ken Reiser, an influenza vic
tim. Both are expected to be
* ——— -
in top shape for their specialties
today, however.
Reiser, a senior with three
letters amt defending; ND two
miler. almost paced liiiuself to
an eclipse of his old Oregon
record of 9:21.0 in the Docks’
first conference meet this
season against Idaho. The slim
Eugene strider was .00 yards
ahead of the Vandals' I .on
tiourley when he snapped the
tape in 9:20.4.
A third member of Bowermans
invincible distance dynasty is
veteran Doug Clement. the
speedy Canadian who has won
three stripes in the quarter and
half-mile runs. Clement was
hampered by leg muscles injuries
early in the year and has been
slow to attain his old form, but
should be one of the highest
contenders for ND and PCC
honors in the SS80-yard run.
Jim Bailey, the Australian half
mile champion, was a welcome
addition to Oregon cinder forces
this spring. The sophomore from
Sydney chased world mile re
cord-holder John Landy in his
homeland and aced out Dellinger
last Saturday in the Vancouver
relays' Roger Bannister mile,
turning in a 4:15.0 clocking. Bai
ley has broken the 880 meet re
cord in all three of Oregon's ND
meets this season, but may con
fine his efforts to competition in
the mile with Dellinger today.
In addition to Reiser and
Clement, another running sen
ior who will be making his
final appearance in a dual meet
on Howe field Is Bruce Spring- !
belt, British Empire and Bun
American gumes sprinter for
Canada and the man who will
press Washington State’s Boh
Gary most in the Nl) 220 and
100-yard dushes.
Another is Bill Sorsby, thej
the service veteran with three
children attending school on a
scholastic scholarship and speed
ing over the low hurdles when j
he isn't working in a gas station,
and the third LeRoy Campbell,
the football end who shadows j
Springbett in the century and
furlong dashes.
