says Krause. Cryer left in 1976 to become
commissioner of the Pacific Coast Ath
letic Association.
“And we’re not allowed to go raise
funds as individual coaches."
As far as any additional money, says
Krause, ‘Til just have to wait and see
what the athletic director says."
With similar financial situations at
Oregon State and Washington, the
talented high school player in the North
west might choose to skip college and go
right into the minor leagues.
It’s a big mistake, Krause says. "Most
high school players, unless they are
offered a large sum of money, are better
off going to college. They get years away
from home, an educational foundation
and a higher level of competition than
they had in high school."
Which returns Krause to square one —
recruiting.
Krause has to get some of those high
school players, along with some junior
college transfers to fill his immediate
needs.
Currently, the Ducks have 14 junior
college transfers and 12 recruited from

high school, so Krause is accomplishing
his objective.
Six of the transfers are pitchers, giving
Krause the kind of pitching experience
he needs to compete at the Pac-10 level.
This team has the talent to challenge
for the Northern Division title, despite the
setbacks, Krause says.
Oregon is 10-7 and has lost both its
league games, but most observers still
feel it is a vastly improved squad from last
year’s 19-21 team.
“I think we should be better than our
record indicates,” says Krause.
The Oregon coach knows, however,
that the Ducks will be hard-pressed to
approach the glory year of 1974.
“All I ask as a coach, financial-aid
wise, is to be competitive with Oregon
State and Washington.”
