Ducks Crush Cougars John Burns Rifles Javelin 2501" By DAVE JORDAN Assistant Sports Editor Oregon's powerful track team overcame 40 degree weather and a bone-chilling rain to crush Brigham Young 96-49 Saturday. About the only competitor who didn’t seem to be bothered by the adverse conditions was bespec tacled Duck senior John Burns, who rifled the javelin 250'1” to set new meet, school, and field records. BURNS, WHO was competing in his second meet of the year after recovering from a shoulder injury, unleashed his record toss on his second try, scattering meet officials who were standing along the pole vault runway. Said Burns, "1 couldn’t believe it. This happens to other people, not to me 1 knew 1 got behind it and it had good flight. I got everything together for once." His throw bettered the field mark of 249’6'z” set by A1 Can tello in 1960, the school record of 244 1" set by Ron Gomez in 1962, and the meet record of 222’0” set hy Gomez in 1962 IN ALL, the Webfoots swept to 13 first places out of 17 events in downing the visiting Cougars for the second year in a row. Mel Renfro led the Ducks in scoring with 12 1/5 points, fol lowed by Dave Blunt with 11 1/5. Renfro picked up his points with firsts in the broad jump (23’34”) and high hurdles (14.3), a third in the 330 intermediate hurdles, and a fine leg on the victorious 440 relay team. BLUNT GOT his points with wins in the 100 (9.9) and 220 (22.3), and the anchor leg of the 440 relay team The Webfoot sophomore's time in the 100 tied the meet record set last year by Jim Puckett. Blunt said of his day’s efforts, “I’m not as nervous Even though the times were slower, I think 1 have been doing better." Oregon’s distance forces swept the mile and two mile finishes and were 1-2 in the 880 KEITH FORMAN started the two-mile as if he were shooting A Buck’s Worth By JOHN BUCHNER -——- Emerald Sports Editor — Sidelight from Saturday’s Ore gon-Brigham Young track meet: “It seems like evervtime we come the track is so slow.” This was the feeling of a de jected Bob Toblcr after winring the 440 in 48 flat The BVU ace only a week previously had won the same event against the Air Force in 47.1. Even though his time was be low his season best, Tobler bet tered the meet record of 48 1 set by Oregon’s Harry Jerome last year. TOBLER SAID he shouldn't feel too bad, though The BYE' team hadn’t been able to work out since the Air Force meet because of snow on the Provo grounds. And we think the weather is bad here . . . Happiest Man Happiest man at the meet had to be javelin thrower John Burns. The bespectacled Duck set a new school and field record of 250 1" The old school record of 244 1” was set by teammate Ron Gomez last year. Burns said he didn’t c-xpcet to ; get it off that well. “Obviously 1 got behind it and it really soared,” he said. Burns stated that he did not feel that the shape he was in warranted the record toss The 21-> ear-old senior from Cen J tral Point was competing in only his second meet of the season. THE NEW champ was confi dent he could do it again if the | Oregon weather would break : “I’ve done it once, I can do it again,” he said. Asked how h'> felt about the achievement Burns replied, "I couldn’t believe it . . . This happens to other people but not to me” Gomez was one of the first to congratulate Burns. He said he j knew his record wouldn’t last and was glad to see Burns break it. By the way, later in the meet I Gomez pulled a groin muscle in the weightman’s relay. It is not known yet how serious the injury I is. “Flying Dutchman” Qualifies Ray Van Asten, the gutty 880 man from LaVerne, Calif., quali ! fied for the NCAA championships i by winning the event in 1:51.5.
