Dedicated DistanceMen
Head Frosh Track Team
By RICK FITCH
Sports Writer
If past performances are any
sign, track coach Bill Bowerman
has on his hands two of Oregon's
finest distance running prospects
since Archie San Romani and
Dyrol Burleson
Freshmen Roscoe Divine and
Hal Jackson came to the Univer
sity with two of the best records
in high school distance running of
anyone on the frosh track team
members.
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.

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
