emerald sports Oregon edged by a claw After 17 events and over three hours of competition, Satur day's Oregon-California dual track meet came down to an inch. And that inch translated into an 80-74 defeat for Oregon, their secopd loss this year against six dual wins. The Ducks trailed 75-74 at the start of the 1,600 meter relay, and California appeared to be assured of winning the meet, since the Bears' season-best in the relay was two seconds fas ter than the Ducks' season-best. A win looked even more remote when David Mack got the baton on the final lap trailing Cal anchor David Timmons by six meters. But Mack cut Tim mons' lead to a fraction coming off the final turn The two sprinted side-by-side down the final stretch, and although both leaned at the finish, Timmons won by an inch. The two teams split the 18 events, winning nine apiece, and although the Ducks got an outstanding weight double from Dean Crouser in the shot put and discus, the Bears' Larry Cowling was superb, winning the 100, 200 and high hurdles Cowling edged Oregon's George Walcott in the sprints, 0*an Crou—r EmenM photo winning the 100 in 10.63 and the 200 in 20 78 Walcott clocked times of 10.72 and 21 04. Cowling also held off Oregon's Dwight Robertson and Don Wright in the high hurdles, winning easily in a time of 13.78. Crouser set a career best in the shot put, recording a mark of 68-3%, three-quarters of an inch short of Jeff Stover's mark of 68-4 V4, which stands second on the all-time Oregon list behind Neil Steinhauer's 1967 throw of 68-11% He also recorded a throw of 208-3 in the discus, his best throw this year Other Oregon winners were freshman Brian Crouser in the javelin with a throw of 248-4; freshman Cory Randall in the steeplechase with a time of 9:17.4; Jim Hiii in the 1,500 with clocking of 3:42.2, breaking Rudy Chapa's meet record of 3:45.73 set last year. Mack in the 800 with a sea son-best of 1:48.2; and Hill in the 5,000, breaking his own meet record set last year with a clocking of 13:50.2. Oregon takes a rest this wee kend before gearing up for the Pac-10 Championships, scheduled for May 19-22 at Hayward Field. Yawn... women easy winners The Northwest College Women's Sports As sociation ended its history Saturday with a yawn as Oregon dominated the organization's final event from the first event To save money, the Ducks sent only half of the athletes who qualified for the meet in Mis soula.

The Ducks also had two more athletes qualify for the NCAA meet in Lisa Nicholson in the 400 hurdles and Chris Costello in the 100 hurdles. That brings the total to 16 athletes in 28 events. r STUDY IN EUROPE 1982-83 Liberal Arts International Business Avignon, France London, England Cologne, Germany Cologne, Germany Study for one, two, or three terms.
