Webfoots Eye Cougar Clash By BOB HAGIST Emerald Sports Writer After being roughed up by Southern California and Stan 1 ford, the Oregon track team seems to have an easier task this Satur day when it takes on Brigham Young University. Past performances this spring favor the Ducks but some of the times are awfully close and Ore gon will have to be at their best or the Cougars could make the i meet a little closer than predic ted. Rain has hampered the Duck spikers this spring and they have been slow rounding into form. However, last Saturday at Palo Alto, the Ducks' came through with some outstanding times. With a break in the weather this weekend, some of the Ducks could conceivable even do better. BRIGHAM Young also got off to a slow start, and just like the Webfoots. they are now beginning to turn in some good times. How ever, it appears that the Cougars do not have enough depth to over come Oregon. Keith Forman is one Oregon thinclad who is apparently reach ing top form, as evidenced by his: 4:00.1 mile and 8:56.8 two mile in last week’s meet with Stanford. Keith will run the two mile this week and is hoping for a weather j break to improve his time. RAY VAN ASTEN will concern ' trate on the 880 for this meet and try to qualify for the NCAA Championships. Van Asten will be up against some stiff eompeti- j tion from teammate Lewis Powell and BYU’s Dean Lundell. Powell has run 1:52 and Lundell 1:52.2. Oregon record holder, Marty Frank, has made the 15 foot club in the pole vault, and if he keeps up the good work, he should win a blue ribbon for the Ducks. Sec ond place should be a tossup be - tween Oregon’s Bob Watson and Gerry Moro and the Cougars Jim Williams and Danny Boyle. All four have cleared 14-6 BOB TOBLER of the Coufiars should take a blue ribbon in the 440. having run a 46.5 last week against the Air Force. The discus appears to be BYU’s with Dick Mertes and Salem's Ron Mickle both having thrown farther than Oregon’s Dick Brown. BYU could also take first in the javelin and intermediate hurdles Terry Thatcher has exceeded the distances of Oregon’s Les Tipton, John Burns, and Ron Gomez in the spear event. Howard Parker and Mike Douglas of the Cougars both have times quite a bit ahead of Mel Renfro in the intermediate hurdles. If Renfro is approaching top form he could upset BYU in this event. He is the definite favorite in the high hurdles and should win the broad jump, although he could be pressed by BYU’s Em mett Smith who has gone 24-0. Figuring on past performances Oregon comes out a 94 to 51 win Oregon's Female Shooters Undefeated In Competition By RAY MAST Emerald Sports News Editor A woman can give a man a lot of bull. But to those women on the women’s rifle team, "bull" has a little different denotation. So far this year the University of Oregon's female shooters are undefeated in five matches. They have defeated Middle Tennessee State, Loyola University, the Uni versity of Florida. Oregon State University, and Boston Univer sity. In their last match the wo men competed in the University of Illinois Invitational in which | 80-150 women's teams were en tered. According to Sergeant Bar nett of the ROTC department, who is coach of the team, the Oregon women have a very good chance of winning. IN THE PAST the women’s riflle team was an interest group! rather than a club and was not very strong until this year. This year the club has blossomed into a winner under the coaching of Barnett and the leadership of team captain Jane Begg. Any woman who is a student at the University may join the team —with or without any experience. In fact, some of the members of the team had no experience until joining the team. Team members are: Soccer Club meet Saturday at 10:30 at the P.E. building to leave for Portland. Anyone who cannot go call Mike Williams at Ext. 1076.

This is Miss Begg’s first year of competition. • RUTH YOGI, from Maui, Hawaii, and a freshman in educa tion. Miss Yogi has been compet ing since her freshman year in high school, and was Hawaii state champion as a senior. Strangely enough, Miss Yogi had the sec ond highest average on the var sity rifle team this year—varsity team members being both men and women. She had the highest score until the last night of com petition. • Edie Hamden, a junior in foreign languages from Toledo, Oregon. Miss Hamden competed on the women’s team as a fresh man and as a sophomore at Ore gon. • Naida Isacson. a freshman in general arts and letters from Stel lacoom, Washington. • RICKIE HART, a freshman in foreign languages, has been competing since her high school days at Madras. • Bonnie Allingham, a junior in English from Albany. The women use the ROTC faci lities and are sponsored by the Women’s Recreation Assn. All women fire standard (ROTC) .22 target rifles. The rifles weigh 13 lbs. and 13 Vi-lbs. ALL WOMEN’S matches are postal matches—that is, the Ore gon team fires at the ROTC rifle range, while the opposing team tires at the rifle range on their campus. The scores are exchanged to determine the winner of the match. Not all women fire at the same time; each may fire at her own convenience. Although all members of the team may fire, only the top five scores are en tered for the team. The women fire in many differ ent types of matches They may fire sitting, prone, kneeling and standing or any combination of these four positions. Should the women fire ten shots each in three positions there are a possi ble 300 points for each individual A bullseye counts 10 points Points decrease with each ring to ward the outside of the center ring. Any shot outside of the bull counts as no points. Sergeant Barnett attributes this year’s success to the fact that the women are high in ability and to individual practice. Barnett said that although some women don't have time to practice at all be cause of study and class sched ules, many of them practice eight to ten hours weekly MEN’S & LADIES ALTERATIONS Mai’s Custom Tailors Room 205 Over Seymour’s 992 Willamette Tele: DI 4-4871 GERMAN AUTO SERVICE Volkswagon Porsche • FACTORY TRAINED SPECIALISTS • WORKMANSHIP GUARANTEED • LOW REPAIR CHARGES • FULLY EQUIPPED TO HANDLE ALL GERMAN MAKES 2045 Franklin Blvd. Dl 2-2912 | ner.
