By DAVE JORDAN
Assistant Sports Editor
Oregon’s baseballers open their
assault on Oregon State's North
ern Division throne this week
end, weather permitting. The
Duckling Thinclods
Invade Corvallis
Oregon’s Frosh track team
moves into Corvallis Friday to
face Oregon State’s Rooks in their
first dual meet competition of the
year. The program will get under
way at 3:30 p m.
Chuck Bowles' Ducklings will
be competing for the second time
this spring Two weeks ago, the
yearling thinclads easily domi
nated an all comers meet in Cor
vallis.
MANY OF THE new recruits
turned in very good performances
in that early season competition,
and on the strength of their marks
figure to dominate Friday's ac
tion.
Gordy Payne was probably the
most impressive Duckling per
former in the first meet. The ex
South Eugene quarter-miler
turned in a fine time of 48.2 for
the one lap event.
That time was a new Frosh rec
ord, and he augmented it by win
nir.g the 220 in 22.2 and running
a 48.1 anchor leg for the victori
ous mile relay team.
KEN MOORE was another im
pressive performer. He set a
Duckling record of 9:15 2 in the
two mile, and is expected to com
pete in that event and the mile
Friday.
Another Duckling. Don Scott,
figures to dominate the 880. His
time in the event at the all-com
ers meet was 1:55.4.
MARCIAL HUNTER, a Corval
las boy, will return home Friday
to show the olct fans some pretty
fair form in the high hurdles.
Hunter. Oregon A-l champ last
year, skimmed the sticks to a 15.1
time in the first meet.
I Ducks were rained out at Linfield
Wednesday.
Don Kirsch's Ducks will invade
Corvallis for a game at Coleman
Field Friday at 3 p.m. The Bea
vers will return the favor by com
ing to Howe Field for a 3 p.m.
contest after^he BYU track meet
on Saturday.
RECENT WEATHER conditions
make both games doubtful propo
sitions, however. Both the Oregon
and OSU diamonds have been
hard hit by this week’s rains.
Although Howe Field has an
in field covering, the outfield is
covered by standing water inches
deep.
If the games are played, they
will match two potent teams

crown last year, but was elimi
nated in the Western Regional

Guess who offered me an executive
position with a leading organization,
where I'll get good pay, further my
education, and enjoy world travel?
My uncle.
In this case, nepotism’s a pretty good idea.
And the best way to get it is through Air Force
ROTC—because the Air Force prefers to com
mission its officers directly upon graduation.
But if you couldn’t fit AFROTC into your
schedule, you can still apply for Air Force
Officer Training School.
OTS offers college men and women an oppor
tunity to assume great responsibility. When
you complete the three month course, you’ll
be commissioned a second lieutenant, and be
come a part of a vital aspect of our defense
effort. As an Air Force officer, you’ll be a
leader on the Aerospace Team.
We welcome your application for OTS now—
but the same may not be true next year. So if
you're within 210 days of graduation, get full
information from the Professor of Air Science.
