Divine had a high school best of 4:10 in the mile in his home state of Washington and in his senior year took first in the state in both cross-country and the mile. Jackson has no less impressive credentials, finishing first in the two mile at the Oregon state meet as a junior and running a 9:19.8 to finish second as a senior. It is Bowerman's view that, “If their interest remains keen, they have the potential to become very fine runners.” Both adhere to Bowerman's philosophy that school and running should be the only things to occupy a good track man. Said Jackson, “I came here be cause of Bowerman’s attitude. He doesn't baby his athletes.” Divine remarked. “1 came here first to sot an education and sec i ond for running.” in backing up their convictions, both Jackson and Divine train for two to three hours per day. Often times, the two will work out for a half hour in the morning to gether, then practice two to three hours in the afternoon alone. Began as Sprinter Jackson took up running as a sprinter in the ninth grade at Grant High in Portland Later in the year, he discovered that distance running was his forte, and as a sophomore, began run ning the HHO, mile and two mile He posted best times of 1:57 3 in the 880 and 4:15 8 in the mite during the course of his high school career in addition to his line two-mile clocking in the state meet. Divine played football, basket ball and hurdled as a sophomore at Columbia High in Vancouver, Washington, but the “turning point,” as he put it, came when Oregon's NCAA miler Archie San Homani convinced him to turn his athletic efforts toward the mile after running with the Ore gon freshman Divine captured the state cross country meet as a junior, but then broke his leg and couldn t compete for the rest of the year Weather Postpones PSC-Oregon Game The Oregon baseball team lost one to the weather Tuesday after noon after Monday’s rainstorm forced postponement of the scheduled doubleheader with Portland State College. The late afternoon and evening storm left Howe f ield unplayable, and one of the games has been re scheduled for Wednesday at 3 p m . field conditions permitting. The infield was being worked back into plaving condition early Tuesday afternoon. Don Kirsch, whose charges have now won seven games in a row, had not definitely made a choice of pitchers for the contest, but tentatively plans to give four of his sophomore hurlers a few innings work each. , . Left handers Mike Snow and Mike Nicksic, as well as Joe Kniser and Larry Hills are the possible pitchers.

Oscar Strauss HEATH’S WONDER FABRICS 878 Willamette Ho can count among his high school achievements n 4 13 mile at the Oregon Indoor Track Moot, and a 1:51.8 880. HIn desire to run for Bowernian coupled with San Romani's influence led Divine to come to Oregon. l.lkr to "Hang Rack” Divine and Jackson both em ploy similar strategy in running. Said Jackson, "I wait behind 'til the last lap and then run to win " Divine remarked, "I hang back. You have to run according to who you’re running against If he's got a superior kick, you've got to run fast to tire him out ” As a freshman here, Divine has run in lioth the Portland and Seattle invitational*, and finished third in the mile in both. Both he and Jackson partici pated in the recent Willamette Relays where Jackson ran the three-quarter mile on the dis tance medley relay team which set a new meet record of 10:08 8 Divine anchored this same team and ran a 4 13 mile Jackson ran his all-time best of 9:11 5 in the two mile at a recent all comers freshman meet Jackson prefers not to specu late about his future "I'll run the best 1 can. I don't know what my best will be yet. so I don't want to set any goals." Divine is more definite, setting as his goal ilie 'UR Olvmiucs IM Schedule Golf Phi Delta Theta vs. Ganoe.
