sports____ Duck netters whip SOSCfor first victory By JOHN HEALY Of the Emerald Chris Voelz, Oregon s women's volleyball coach, finally found her QUILTING WORKSHOPS BY SUZI BLUCHER Starting Oct. 17 SIGN UP NOW at Weatherberry Farm Fabrics 1128A. Alder St. 1 block from campus "comfort zone” Wednesday night against Southern Oregon College as the Ducks downed SOSC 10-15,15-11,15-10,15-9 to notch their first win of the season. Unfortunately, Voelz didn’t get to stay in her comfort zone for long, as Oregon College of Educa tion outplayed Oregon in the finale of Wednesday night’s triple header in Mac Court 15-10, 5-15, 15-10, 17-15. Voelz, who stresses to her players the power of “positive thinking”, defines her comfort zone as a sense of security or of feeling “at ease in a situation.” Be fore the Southern Oregon match Voelz didn’t have much to feel secure about. After an opening season loss to powerful Portland State, the Ducks got walloped in five straight matches at the Berkeley Invita tional last weekend. “We beat them (SOSC) at the net,” explained Voelz. "Our spik ers were far better, especially Christie McFarlane who played her best game of the year.” “Shawna (Baxter) played a great all-around game, and Kim Jessup was outstanding on of fense,” she continued. Against OCE, the Ducks played well in spurts, but made too many mental errors at critical points. According to Voelz, the lack of seasoned players is still hurting the Ducks. "We play in spurts be cause so many of our players are freshmen and sophomores Our setters lack pizazz. We re making too many communication errors.” The third set against OCE was a case in point. Leading 4-0, Oregon began making a series of mental miscues that allowed OCE to score 10 straight points and take a 10-4 lead. The Ducks came back tying it at 10-10, but couldn’t pull out a win. Voelz is back to looking for her “comfort zone”, and the women's volleyball team is 1-7 and headed for the Portland Invitational this weekend. Oregon plays in the “white” pool, which includes Nevada Reno, Washington State, Victoria, Oregon State, and Western Washington. “I don’t know much about the teams in our pool right now,” said Voelz, “but Nevada-Reno beat us at the Berkeley Invitational." The Ducks face Nevada-Reno and Oregon State tonight, then take on Washington State, West ern Washington, and Victoria Saturday. —Cheer up a friend!1 STOP BY TODAY OR ANY DAY FORA HAPPY BUNCH” of DAISIES a MUMS, STATICE, OR BABY BREATH $2.99 Cuqene '$ jf/owe/l fleme THE UNIVERSITY FLORIST \ 13th AND PATTERSON EMPLOYMENT U.S. CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY Unique professional opportunities for those seniors and graduate students completing work in: Accounting/Auditing Aeronautical Engineering Aerospace Engineering Agricultural Economics Architectural Engineering Civil Engineering *Communications/JournaliS!ji Computer Science Systems Analyst Econom ics; Econometrics Electrical Engineering Electronic Engineering Electro Chemistry Foreign Area Studies East Asian Near Eastern Russian East Europe Foreign Languages (High to Native Proficiency Required) Arabic Chinese Japanese Korean Polish Russian International Relations ‘Library/Information Science ‘Mathematics (applied) Mechanical Engineering Nuclear Engineering Nuclear Physics Operations Research Optical Engineering Photog rammetry!

New York Yankees look to Guidry NEW YORK (AP) — With the New York Yankees back in more familiar surroundings — in Yan kee Stadium — the 1978 World Series resumes Friday night with the Los Angeles Dodgers sitting pretty. Faced with a virtual must-win situation, the Yankees hand the ball to the game’s best pitcher this season, ace left-hander Ron Cultural Forum LYNN DALLY & DANCERS 1 MAUREEN NORVELL, LINDA SOHL-DONNEL & DONNA UCHBONO > i IN CONCERT!

Guidry won 25 games and lost only three for the American League champions during the regular season, including the climactic AL East playoff against Boston. Then he won the equally climactic fourth game of the AL championship series that thrust the Yanks into their third straight World Series. Opposing Guidry will be Dodger right-hander Don Sutton, who grew up dreaming of the day he would pitch in the Stadium, always hoping it would be for the Yank ees, not against them. Last year he opened the Series in New York, pitching seven in nings of a game the Yanks won 4-3 in 12 innings.
