"The boys and girls are getting into form " said track coach Randy Hutchinson. ‘‘I don’t think people expect us to take first place so there’s re a lly not that much pressure. “ T h a t’s good fo r us though,’ ’ he added. "W e'll be relaxed in a good frame of mind to compete." Steve McGraw took two of Sandy’s nine firsts in the meet with St. Helens. He tossed the javelin 166’ 9” and ran a 42.2 in the 300 in termediate hurdles for firsts in those events.

Jensen then tied Rhode’s previous mark at 5’ 3". Sue Wilson established a personal best in the 3000 with a time of 11:47.1. The Fish and W ild life Commission, meeting in Portland recently, received staff recommendations for 1978 big game hunting seasons generally sim ilar to last year. However, there are some important changes and innovations in some areas. Some either-sex deer hunting is proposed for black-tailed deer in lieu of entry Rocky Mountain bull elk hunting, and an early an- terless elk season prior to the general bull season has also been proposed in five Rocky Mountain elk units. Two new areas for hunting bighorn sheep with a total of 11 perm its have been suggested in addition to the areas open last year and several new or expanded areas for bowhunters are recommended. Staff big game biologist Paul Ebert reviewed results of spring census work con ducted in the field and said herds had fared generally well through the mild winter in spite of fears there would be heavy mule deer losses. Because of last y e a r’s drought, mule deer, and to some extent other big game species, entered the winter period in poor condition with lim ite d forage supplies a vailable on the w inte r ranges. Although losses were recorded in many areas, p a rtic u la rly among last year’s fawn population, the mild winter conditions and The first of a string of four doubleheaders at home falls Thursday for the Mt. Hood Community College baseball team. Turin slugs L&C to berth in tourney at least three games for us this year with his home runs.” Turin has seven homers this season and is hitting "w ell over .300” according to Hergert. Turin was the Pioneer’s first string catcher his fresh man and sophomore years and split duties last season. He was shifted to first base this year. In m aking the sw itch, Turin had big shoes to fill in replacing Greg Thelen (graduated) who batted .401 and was named 2nd team All- American. But Turin has been more than an adequate replacement. He was named all-league and all-district in the Northwest Conference and has a good shot at all- West Coast when the balloting takes place later this month. Turin got off to a slow start in the early part of the season but has come on strong in the last half after being moved from clean-up to sixth in the lineup. “ He does the job when we’ve got people on base,” Hergert said. "H e ’s great in the clutch.” Lewis and Clark advance to the West Coast cham pionship to be played Thursday through Saturday at Lents Park in Portland. The tourney is double elimination with three teams entered. The Pioneers open against LaVerne College (Califor nia) Thursday at 7 p.m. then play Lewis-Clark College of Lewiston, Idaho, F rid ay night at 8. these in addition to their general season tags, and, if successful in the drawing, would pay 15 for a tag which would permit them to take a second deer. This system was in effect last year in eastern Oregon. A five-day antelope season from Aug 19-23 is proposed in 21 units with 1,135 tags suggested. In addition. 100 antelope doe tags have been proposed for two hunts in the Murderer’s Creek Unit and 30 tags in the Ochoco Unit. The purpose is to thin the herds which are using prim arily private ranch land in these two units. A month-long cougar season is proposed for December w ith 130 tags suggested in seven areas. In addition to hunts for California bighorn sheep in the Steens, Hart Mountain and Owyhee areas similar to last year, the staff proposed two new areas. Hurricane Divide in the Wallowas and Strawberry Mountain south of John Day Two hunts, with four tags for each, are suggested for Hurricane Divide and one hunt w ith three tags is proposed on S traw berry Mountain. The sheep in both these areas are Rocky Mountain bighorns, a differ ent subspecies than the California bighorn B o w h u n tin g seasons sim ilar to last year have been proposed except there are several expanded and new areas recommended for both eastern and western Oregon. Muzzle loader seasons for deer would be the same as last year except in the Hart Mountain hunt the four-point only regulation would be changed to permit taking bucks two-points and better.
