HardballerS' Set Couaar Series Oregon’s baseball team takes on the fourth best team in the nation this weekend when they travel to Pullman to meet the de fending Northern Division cham pion Washington State Cougars. This week's Associated Press poll rated the Cougars as the number four collegiate team in the nation, behind Southern Cal ifornia. Arizona State, and Flor ida State. WSU also received five first-place votes. And. furthermore, the Cougars currently lead the Northern Di vision title race by one over sec ond-place Oregon. Entire Team Back Washington State lost to the University of Idaho. 9-8, last Tuesday, to bring their record to 21-7. but still have basically the entire last year’s championship team back. “Of course. Washington State lias a good ball club, since they are ranked fourth nationally," said Oregon coach Don Kirsch. “It's always tough to win in Pullman. Our work is cut out for us. “I feel we must win two of the three to stay in the race." com mented Kirsch. “Washington State is definitely in the driver’s seat. They have only one more road series left, and will be at home for the other three.” Like WSU. Oregon also lost a game earlier in the week, falling to the University of Portland. 6-5, in Portland Tuesday. Duck hitting continued to shine against the Pilots, as the team rapped out 13 safeties, including two doubles, a triple, and a home run. Shortstop Don Delplanche led the attack with a double, triple, and a homer. His two run shot in the seventh inning put the Ducks ahead, 4-3, but Portland came right back to take the lead again. Portland tied the score in the bottom half of the seventh and put together four singles for the winning in the eighth. A last - minute comeback at tempted by Oregon fell just short of knotting the score in t h e ninth. With two out, Scott Cress sin gled, Steve Bunker walked, and both advanced on a wild pitch. Dale Ehler singled to score Cross, but Pilot pitcher Tom Eder struck out the next batter to end t h e threat. ‘ A Few Mistakes" Other hitting stars for Oregon were Ehler (3-4), Ted Amato (2-4). and pitcher Charles Hop kins (2-3). Hopkins and Mike Powers, both sophomores, pitched for the Ducks. "We made a few mistakes that we shouldn't have made at this point of the season," concluded Kirsch "We experimented with the pitching, but didn’t do too badly. Our fielding wasn't very good (the Ducks committed four errors).” EMERALD SPORTS IM Schedule Softball 3:50—North Field.

University Co-op CHAPMAN HALL Duck Spikers Host WSU By PAUL POLSKY Associate Sports Editor The Oregon track-and-fi e 1 d Ducks liost Washington State in their second Hayward Field en gagement in as many weeks this Saturday, beginning at 1:15 p m. for Held events, and 2 p.m. for running events. The Cougars boast many line individuals but as a team will not compare to the powerful UCLA group that Oregon met last week. The Ducks should add the Cougars to their list of wins. Mike Deibele, after running a 9 6 upset against Norm Jackson last week, will get another real test this Saturday: he faces two WSU runners who have gone be low the 9.6 standard in Dick Hickman and Jim Johnson. Both Cougars have done 9.4 with Hick man's wind aided. Van Dyk Gone However, Deibele will be favor ed in the 220. He has a best of 21.2 compared to 21 8 for Hick man and 219 for Johnson. The Ducks will again be with out quarter-miler Jere Van Dyk who is out indefinitely with a pos sible case of mononucleosis, but still have Cordy Payne who has done 48 4. The Cougars will prob ably run Rick Van Zandt and Jack McCorkindale, who have run 47.9 and 49.2 respectively. The Ducks have the class in the half mile with Mike Crunican (1:50.9), and Don Scott (1:50.8). The lone Cougar competitor has a relatively slow 1:52.3. Duck coach Bill Bowerman hinted that Wade Bell will again go in the mile and will likely face Chris Weslnian (4:09.8), and Gary Benson (4:13.2). This could be one of the feature events with Westman capable of close to a four-minute time. Mndgren Also Out The two mile was billed as one of the top events of the meet be fore Gerry Lindgren, who has been recovering from an acute case of the flu, was ruled out. Oregon's Ken Moore should win but Chris Westman, who has done 9:05 2 this spring, will push him. Bob Blum, who has a best of 13.8, is the class of the high hur dles. The best marks by the Cougars are 15.0 and 15.1, by Dave Kessler and Bob Dally In the field competition, t h e Ducks are favored in all but three events. Washington State’s Bob Keppel and Jim Kolva have jumped 0 8'« and 6 3 V« respec tively in the high jump while Ore gon's Hob Shephard has gone 6-4. Cougar Carl O'Donnell has done 232-W in the javelin und will be favored there. This leaves the Held open for Neil Steinhauer in the shot and the discus, Boh Woodell and llerm Bramc in the long jump, and Bob Varley in the pole vault. In the relay events, the Ducks hold a slight edge in the 440 with a best of 41.4, while the Cougars are 42 1.
