    Beavers Edge
Duck Runners
By JOHN ANDERSON
Of the Emerald
A couple of points here and
a couple more there would have
done it, but the upset-minded
Oregon track team couldn’t
quite put everything together
Saturday and had their string
of consecutive Northern Division
Track Championships snapped
at 14 by Oregon State.
Final score was 84-81, with
Washington State not far back
at 71 and Washington, struck
by a series of injuries through
out the dual meet season, fourth
with 32.
Seven meet records were
broken and another tied in a
meet that saw great perform
ances in three events.
Kvalheim Beaten
The one everyone came to
see was the rematch duel be
tween Oregon's Arne Kvalheim
and WSU’s Gerry Lindgren.
Kvalheim set a national collegi
ate record three weeks ago in
Eugene when he defeated the
“Spokane Sparrow” in the two
mile, but this time the pair
were going in the event Lind
gren holds the national colleg
iate record in—the three-mile.
Kvalheim stayed with Lindgren
until the final stretch, but the
Cougar pulled away and won.
Kvalheim was limping after
his performance — he finished
in a school record 13:19.1 to
Lindgren’s 13:16.3 (Lindgren’s
best is 12:53.0) — and complain
ed of suffering a cramp in his
leg with two laps remaining. “I
knew it was all over then,” he
said.
Oregon’s John Woodward and
Tom Morrow were third and
fourth in 13:48.5 and 13:56.8.
Other outstanding showings
were turned in by WSU’s Foss
Miller, who heaved the javelin
248 feet, 11 inches, and by a
pair of discus throwers, Wash
ington State’s big John Van
Reenan and OSU’s Tim Vollmer.
Van Reenan. a strong South
African, had to get off a life
time best of 198-5 to beat Voll
mer, who set an Oregon State
record of 197-10.
Ducks Win Six Events
Oregon wins came from Tom
Smith in the long jump. Bob
Varley in the pole vault, Dave
Wilborn in the mile. Bob Blum
in the 120 high hurdles, Gary
Knoke in the 440 intermediate
hurdles, and the Webfoot mile
relay team. Wilborn’s 4:02.3 and
Knoke’s 51.2 were meet rec
ords.
Smith leaped 24-53/l to take
his specialty, IV2 inches better
than second place Bill Henry
of WSU.
Varley topped Beaver star
Dennis Phillips for the second
straight week, clearing 16 feet.
Mike Chaney was third with a
vault of 15 feet.
Wilborn led a 1-2-3 Duck
sweep in the mile. Norm Tre
rise (4:05.1) and Terry Dooley
(4:05.4) both rah lifetime bests.
The Ducks placed 1-3-4 in the
high hurdles as Blum ran 14.0
to edge OSU’s Don Parish, who
was given the same time. Knoke
was third in 14.1, and sopho
more Myron Johnson ran a life
time best 14.2.
Knoke's intermediate hur
dles times was six-tenths of a
second better than Tom Stra
thairn of Washington or Boyd
Gittins of WSU. Johnson placed
lifth in 53.2.
The mile relay team picked
up five points after the Beavers
had already clinched the title,
with Mike Deibele, Jim Rever
man. Knoke and Ron Couser
timed in 3:14 0.
Possibly the biggest Oregon
downfall was the 3000-meter
steeplechase, when the Ducks,
favored to take 1-2-3, could get
only 3-4-5. Washington’s John
Celms won in a meet record
8:58.9. and was followed by
WSU’s Rod Dahl. Geoff Hollis
ter was third in 9:09.7, Cedric
Wedemire fourth in 9:11.5, and
Jim Gorman fifth in 9:19.8.
Thompson Wins 880
In the 880. Jim Reverman
was beaten by the man he beat
in Eugene a week earlier. Terry
Thompson of OSU burst ahead
on the stretch, and won in
1:49.5. Reverman was second in
1:51.1, and Mike Crunican third
in 1:51.2.
“I’m more tired today with
a slow time than I was last
week,” Reverman said. “It’s just
hard to get high mentally two
weeks in a row. I think I’ll be
ready for next week’s PAC
meet.'’
Jim Sagle tossed the javelin
a lifetime best 223-10 for fourth
place. Bruce Schneider and Gary
Bricher placed in other weight
events, with Schneider fifth in
shot put at 53-8 and Bricher
fifth in discus at 163-6.
Ron Couser was fourth in the
440 in 48.1. OSU’s Rod Paul
tied the met record of 46.9, half
a second better than he had
ever run before. Teammate
Greg Marks ran a 47.1.
Mike Deibele was fourth in
the 100 at 9.7 and fifth in the
220 at 21.5, while Willie Turner
of OSU won both in 9.6 and
20.9, with teammate Ernie
Smith close behind in both.
Turner and Smith also led the
Beavers to a 40.1 second romp
in the 440 relay, as the Ducks
were fourth in 42.6.

For the Emerald
The Northern Division cham
pion Oregon golf team won
another match Friday, defeat
ing Oregon State 15M>-11M> to
up their record to 8-2 for the
season.
Playing the newly-remodeled
and extremely difficult 6,820
yard. par 72 Eugene Country
Club, the top three Duck golf
ers faltered somewhat off their
averages, but the bottom three
brought the team through.
In preparation for this week
end's PAC Championships, Mike
Davis shot an 80, Mike Currie
86 and Gay Davis an unusual
40-37-76. Scott Smith had an 80,
sophomore Fred Haney also an
80. and Dave Leiken a steady
38-38-76.
The winner of the match was
still in doubt with only the last
two Oregon players on the
course, but Leiken and Haney
made their par putts on the last
hole to insure victory for the
Ducks. After the match, coach
Jack Adler commented, “I wish
they wouldn’t do this to me.
They always wait until the last
hole to win it.”
This weekend Oregon travels
to Los Angeles to challenge fa
vored Stanford and USC in the
PAC Championships. "We're go
ing down with the idea of win
ning,” Adler said.

One of Mother Nature’s loveliest shapes, translated into
sparkling diamond engagement rings. Their charm lies in
the fact that they have all of the brilliance of the round
cut, plus the grace and the glitter of the marquise. They
are particularly becoming to slender, tapering fingers.
