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

10 More Points and Victory Over USC

Bowerman also added that Ore

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

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

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.
