NATIONALS continued from page 13 tune their skills for the St. Francis In tersectional. One last chance In order for Oregon's Club baseball team to begin its trek to Florida to compete in the National Club Base ball Association World Series, it must beat Western Washington on May 1 and 2 in Bellingham, Wash. The Ducks improved their record to 14-4 last weekend, beating Central Oregon Community College in two games at Volcanoes Stadium in Keizer. The Ducks opened Saturday with a win, beating Central Oregon, 8-5. Oregon lost its second game of the first day, 15-6, putting itself in a must-win situation on Sunday. The Ducks responded with a 4-2 win Sunday, giving them a chance to move into first with wins against Western Washington. "This last series with Western Wash ington will be huge," catcher Ion Loomis said, adding that it will decide whether they have a chance at a World Series berth. Kirsten McEwen is a freelance reporter for the Emerald. 1 Adam Amato Senior Photographer Justin Phinisee picked off two interceptions last season and started eight games. MOLD continued from page 13 critique himself and try to help players such as Nelson, Gilliam and Aaron Gipson get better acclimated into the system. At night, maybe he'll even get into a dis cussion with Lewis, his former teammate and one-time roommate. After all, Bellotti and Tucker admitted that Phinisee reminds them of Lewis, the former stalwart. "We had four of us in the house, and I guess we probably stayed up until 3 in the morning every night arguing," Phinisee said. "I couldn't see things Keith's way and he couldn't see things my way. We just kept arguing, arguing, arguing. I guess it was just the competitiveness we both had." Contact the sports editor at hankhager@dailyemerald.com. ROETMAN continued from page 13 phenom also received a rhythmic clap from the Hayward faithful, causing his eyes to light up with focus and determi nation. The Sandy native approached the vaulting area with carefully calculated steps before lifting himself over a bar lo cated 17 feet, 5 inches above the ground. Skipper hopped up off the mat and waved to the fans that had stayed until the last field event of the day to see him jump. The simple physics of Skipper's accomplishment was enough to gain the respect of this reporter. "We're all out here competing because we love our events," Skipper said. "You have to show a little enthusiasm while you compete. There's a lot of young kids out here and one of these days they're going to be out here for Oregon track and field and that's what inspires them to do great things in their life. If I can be any type of inspiration to anyone I want to do that. "I remember watching (former Duck and Olympian) Kory Tarpenning compete in the pole vault and that's why I'm out here." With two meets remaining at Hayward Field this year, I find myself wishing for more. Simply interacting with the ath letes is fun in itself. The track athletes aren't cocky or arrogant, instead, they carry themselves with a humble humility. In a sport that is often judged on individual accomplishments, the track athlete embraces the concept of team unity. Oregon track athletes are truly blessed to compete in a city where track and field is embraced and dummies like me are kept to a minimum. Contact the sports reporter at jonroetman@dailyemerald.com.

Box 3159, Eugene, OR 97403 Horoscope by Linda C. Black Today's Birthday (April 15). This year is about getting in touch with your sensitive, spiritual side. Before you go leaping ahead, make sure you're on the right track. Let your conscience be your guide. If you don't have one, figure out how to get one. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day. 0 the most challenging. Aries (March 21 -April 19) _ Today is an 7 _ It's not a good day to travel or to send out resumes or announce ments. Rethink your proposed action and try to find the words you might later wish you'd said. Taurus (April 20-May 20) _ Today is a 7 _ A friend may surprise you with a suggestion you'd never have come up with yourself. That’s one of the things friends are for, so let them know what you need. Gemini (May 21-June 21) _ Today is a 6 _ Don't take on an assignment that will cause friction with someone you love. That's not a nice surprise to dump on a person who's been there for you. Cancer (June 22-July 22) _ Today is a 7 _ An excursion you'd like to go on should be delayed. There’s likely to be an unexpected situation at work. Don't overextend yourself. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) _ Today is a 7 _ A disagreement about how to spend jointly held money could threaten your relationship. Proceed with caution. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) _ Today is a 7 „ You'll achieve a whole lot more with the help of a creative partner. You need a couple of crazy ideas. Pick out the one that's most likely to work. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) _ Today is a 7 _ Another person is doing most of the talking, but that doesn't mean you don't count. You're putting in most of the work at this point. Make sure you get credit foriit. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) _ Today is a 7 _ A gift for a loved one is a good way to express your true feelings. You're experiencing a lot of frustra tion at work. Being kind always helps. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) _ Today is a 7 _ Don't push too hard. That won't help a bit, and it could actually cause damage. You're enthu siastic, but you need to wait for somebody else to catch up. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) _ Today is a 6 _ Make a wonderful discovery while meditating quietly. Not every thing has to be explainable. Miracles do happen. Let go of an old fear. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) _ Today is a 7 _ You’re a voracious reader, especially now. This is good, because your flight to success starts with a library card. Find out what others have already discovered so that you don't reinvent the wheel. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) _ Today is a 7 _ Information you're dredging up could threaten the establishment. That's why it's best to keep it to your self until you're sure conditions are right. And right now, they aren't right. 110 INSTRUCTION/TUTORING SPANISH TUTOR help with Spanish through 203. Flexible times. $10/hr.
