Willamette university . noseo
out ahead of Whitman college In;
major, athletic accomplishment in ' "
the Northwest conference for the!
school year Saturday when its
baseball .team defeated the Mis
sionaries 4 to 1 in the final
game of the playoff series and
thereby won-Willamette's second
major sport elumn'onblp of the
year. f"
In contrast to a year ago when
Willamette' was undefeated in
football, basketball and ; baseball.
It lost one game in each of these
sports to Whitman, this year and
Whitman won the football cham- ;
plonshlp. Willamette lost to no
other conference school 'and took
the basketball and baseball titles.
It was Andy Peterson, whose
prowess as a moundsman' and
also as a hitter hss gained wide
prominence this year and set ma
jor league scouts on his trail,
who came through in the pinch
again Saturday at Walla Walla.
After hurling tight j ball and
pounding but a home run for the
deciding tally in the first game,
Peterson was called upon to toe
the rubber again in the third
game with only a day's rest. He
came through in a manner befit- -ting
a champion, striking out 17
batsmen and allowing .but seven
-hits. ; ,-..!
Peterson held the visitors
scoreless for seven Innings, with
good ' suppdrt from his Infield
and outfield aides among whom
Walt Erickson shone brightly by
cutting off a run In the fifth,
throwing Breum of Whitman out
at the plate after catching a fly
ball In deep left field.
Clow, who last year was rated
as Whitman's best pitcher, alao
showed up well in this deciding
game, striking out .12 WHlam-.
ette batsmen, but they clouted
the ball - safely 10 times and .
drove In four runs. An inter
esting sidelight .on the series is
that each team scored six, runs,
but Willamette scored them
when they1 meant' two victories.
