Bowerman Says 3 Events Hurt Ducks in USC Test "We needed 10 points but we didn't Ret them." That was Bill Bowerman's anal ysis of Oregon's 82-63 track loss to USO last week. Bowrrman said that three events hurt the Ducks "badly.” Those were the 100, high jump, and 880. He said that nervousness both ered Dave Blunt in the 100. "Dave gets us pet, nauseated before a big meet. He lost his breakfast Sat urday and you can't afford to lose your breakfast when you're fac ing sprinters like (Dick) Cortese and (Dave) Morris.” The high Jump "really hurt us,” said Bowerman "We ex pected to get six points and we only got three.” Bowerman railed the 880 the "best race of the day." The only unfortunate thing about it was that Oregon lost. In final recapitulation, Bower man added that the Trojans "gen erated nil the heat" in the cold Coliseum meet. He gave as an example, the Trojans' Larry Stuart, who beat l.es Tipton in the javelin Stuart had one leg swathed in bandages from thigh to ankle. Said Bowerman of the event "Stuart had three throws of about 1!HJ Tipton was out about 240. (Hary) Reddaway had done 225, and I was feeling pretty good.” Then a slight smile crossed Bowerman's face. "Then here comes this guy, snorting and groaning down the runway and lets go with this throw of 242 I think he must have broken his leg off doing it.” But Bowerman doesn't think the event was really a key one in the Ducks' defeat. "I knew Stuart would be tough," said Bowerman "He was national AAU champion last year.” Bowerman also put aside any idea that his team might have a soft touch against OSU May 2. "Just because they (the Beavers) lost to Washington State last weekend, everybody seems to IM Swim Meet Set This Week The intramural swimming meet will he held Wednesday through Friday of this week, according to John Borchardt, in tramural director.

BILL BOWERMAN’ 10 More Points and Victory Over USC think they don’t have a very good track team,” says Bowerman “I figured it out the other night and we re going to have trouble making 73 points against them It takes 73 points to win a dual track meet. Bowerman also added that Ore gon was lucky to score 80 points against WSU. “They fell through in some events like the pole vault,” he said. Golf Scheduling Problems, Brundage's Confidence Told A tennis player who overflows with confidence and the over zealous scheduling of a golf coach were the subjects of a pair of talks given to the Oregon Club Monday. Dick Williams, Oregon's tennis coach, told the group about soph omore Mike Brundage Brundage shares his time with the football team and Williams says he can't wait until the spring game is over so he can have Brundage full time for those last few big tennis matches. Brundage’s main asset is his great competitiveness. Williams tells the story of the time Brun dage was leading a set by a nar row 5-3 margin when he called out to Williams: “Don't worry, Mr. Williams, it's all over.” It was. And Williams grins, “that has a heck of a demoraliz ing effect on his opponents.” Oregon golf coach Elwood Kret singer cracked that as a first year coach he may have made his team’s schedule just a bit too tough. He pointed out that while the Ducks play all the major North IM Schedule Softball 3:50 North, Stafford vs. Shel don South, Adams vs Alpha Upper, Morton vs Dyment 4:55 North, Sigma Alpha Ep silon vs Alpha Tau Omega South, Phi Delta Theta vs Theta Chi Upper, Tau Kappa Epsilon vs Chi Psi Golf Alpha Tau Omega vs Sigma Chi Theta Chi vs. DeCou Tennis Delta Upsilon vs Adams EPISCOPALIANS Gerlinger Hall, 2nd floor 7:00 a.m. each Wednesday Breakfast following the Service — The Holy Communi ern Division schools, plus tough independents like Seattle and Fort Lewis, Oregon State has on its schedule Linfield, Southern Oregon, and the like. But Krctsinger explained his scheduling theory this way: "This is a young team and I’ve tried to give them tough competition, looking ahead to next year when we're in the conference. He added that his team seems to like this tough competition, especially number one man John Hedlund. Hedlund, says Kretsinger, ‘‘has such a strong swing that I find he has to play just about every day or he'll slip to an 80.” For nine matches, three in competi tion, Hedlund is now seven under par. Kretsinger said that his team’s main problem is that they try to gamble at the wrong time. "They’ll try to cut a dogleg when they could probably do just as w'ell playing it the conventional way," says the coach. Wind, Loss Darken OSU Diamond Series Oregon baseball coach Don Kirsch told the Oregon Club Mon day that he was satisfied with last weekend’s scries with Oregon State, except for the wind the fact that Oregon didn’t win both games. “I thought we made a good comeback Saturday after Friday’s loss,” he said. Then he mused, “But I’d still like to be 2-0 against Oregon State.” Kirsch said Thatch McLeod’s early wildness Saturday scared him. ”1 was all set to go with somebody else,” grinned Kirsch, “when he finally got everybody out.” Friday, Kirsch said the Ducks ran up against a very fine pitcher in the Beavers’ Denny Straub. Kirsch said that Straub was throwing “aspirin tablets.” But Kirsch added that he thought Oregon’s pitching also looked good, pointing out that Snow pitched a four-hitter Fri day and McLeod looked good after his first wild inning Satur day Kirsch had special praise for ■ Kirsch Keeps Kids in School Ever wonder how Oregon s baseball players can play so many games and still manage to keep their grades up? Well, coach Don Kirsch says not to worry. He has a system that takes care of that and works so well that he only lost one player because of grades last year. Kirsch explains it this way: He keeps an availability chart on which each player has written when he has classes. Players gen j erally try to avoid having after i noon classes and Kirsch tries to avoid pulling them out of cl&s This works pretty well except for a couple of exceptions. If a pitcher’s turn in the rotation comes up, Kirsch makes sure he’s out there and ready to pitch at 3 p.m. when most games start. The other exception is that long road trip in the middle of May. And then the baseball play ers take their books with them and are supposed to keep up on all reading and other assign ments. In fact, on road games in non league action Kirsch won’t even take a man if he has classes dur-. ing that period. There’s also the fact that most players ease up slightly on their study load during spring term, taking less hours. So don’t worry about Oregon’s baseball team flunking out, Don Kirsch has a system that keeps them all in school—and playing baseball. Ed Vetter, Terry Leininger, and Don Banderas for their weekend’s work. i Banderas made one of the most spectacular catches in Oregon baseball history when he leaped high atop a fence Saturday to catch a ball. He ran afoul of a gate that somebody left open. By the time Banderas had clambered back onto the field two runs had scored and the Beavers had won the game. Kirsch said he thought that the umpire’s call was a god one. He also added that had the gate not been left open Banderas might have seriously injured himself on it. Vetter and Leininger both earned praise for their defensive prowess. Vetter made a good double play Saturday and Lein inger didn’t hit much over the weekend but had a good series on defense. Looking ahead to next week end’s series with Washington State, Kirsch said he expected a close series from the Cougars. The men from Pullman have a 20-2 record and are leading the Northern Division with a 2-0 record. , As to the wind, Kirsch said, “We found out what it’s like to play in Candlestick Park this weekend. I don't think I’ve ever seen so many missed fly balls in one two-game series.” The wind was bothersome both at Howe Field and at Oregon State.
