rlLLAMETTE university .
over Orecron State college
both ends of a double-header'IWJ and 5-4 to sweep the
series and make the fourth year
to crack through the Bearcats.
The Beavers came the closest to breaking the Bearcat
series of wins, now extended too
ten In four years. In the last game
only to see Willamette stage a
tvo-rnn rally In the ninth to win.
Willamette was in trouble in
the first two Innings of the first
game when the wildness of Pitch
er Walter Weaver gave the Bea
vers two runs but Larry Nonnen
kamp, junior hurler, took the
mound to limit the Beavers to
three hits the rest of the way in
as his mates pounded three Bea
ver pitchers for 16 base blows.
The Beavers were limited to
four hits In each of the- two
games. Freshman Jack Criswell, a
southpaw who was pitching his
first collegiate game, went the
route In the second game.
. Parade Gets Going
Willamette's run parade start
ed; in the fourth Inning of the
first game when Bill Beard tripled
and Ragsdale and Nunnenkamp
socked out two-baggers for two
runs.
Orren's double in the fifth
brought in Hagedorn for another
tally and the Bearcats continued
the extra-base barrage in the sixth
when Williamson doubled, scor
ing Shinn.
Four; hits in the seventh
brought in two runs and four
Beaver boots in the ninth, coupled
with one hit, accounted for three
more tallies.
Three Beaver hurlers, Takami,
Fenger and Houdek, tried to stop
the Bearcats In the first game.
Behind 4 to 3 going into the
ninth in the second game, Shlnn
doubled to left to open the Bear
cat rally. Orren was issued a base
on balls and Weisgerber flied out
to center. Aden singled to center
to score Shinn and tie the count
and 0ren came home with the
winner on Beard's long fly to left
field.
Willamette got three runs in
the second after two were out but
Kohlback, pitching for Oregon
State, tightened up and the Bear
cats could collect only two hits
from there until the ninth.
Triple Aids Beavers
Meyer's triple In the sixth
brought in Cappell and Pleasant
for Oregon State's opening runs
and two more, scored when Pierce
booted a chance at first after
Kohlback walked and Gwynn dou
bled, put them in the lead in the
seventh.
Although every blow off his de
livery was for extra bases Cris
well kept the hits scattered and
struck out six batters.
Willamette touched Kohlback
i for eight blows.

CORVALLIS. April 17 -JP-Oregon
State's rarilty track
squad conditioning slowed con
siderably this week for the op
ening relay meet with the Uni
versity of Oregon at Eugene next
Saturday afternoon, faced with
the double adversity of being
forced to .vacate the Orange cin
der oval while turfing of Bell
field continues and adverse wea
ther conditions.
Coach Lodell admitted strength
In one event, however, and that
la the high jump. He also has
"hopes for a good showing in the
prints and distance relays.
Duane Ackerson, who scaled 6
feet 3 Inches, led the jumpers in
training this week. . Other high
jumpers listed for the coming
competitions are Hal Hessig and
Pete Beamer.
A pair of sophomores are out
standing among the sprint pros
.. pects. They are Boh Leslie, for
taer Klamath Falls prep speed
ster, and Bill Hoyer, former
sprinter of Benson Tech, Port
land. Hultenbergs Make
Good Trout Catch
: Fooling the experts who aald
it wasn't possible to catch fish
In such weather, Carl Hultenberg
and his son. Bad, came back to
Salem yesterday from YalseU
with a limit catch of 80 trout for
two days fishing.
The fish, the smallest ot which
measured 11 inches, were
caught In Valsets pond, some of
them during a heavy hailstorm.
Hultenberg reported that most of
the fish were caught on salmon
eggs, a few on worms and very
few with flies.
The Hultenbergs went Into Val
seti on the speeder after running
through high water by "starterr
power" to get to the railhead.
Roads into -YalseU are Impassa

intact yesterday as it took

ojcsir
Boy, what scenery! If any of
you golfers failed to motor out
to he Salem Golf club yester
day, you missed something!
For those familiar fairways had
become part of the Willamette
river. f 1 '
It's true, the golfing was diffi
cult. Such fairways and greens as
were above water, were in excel
lent condition, but It was some
thing of a problem to figure out
nine holes. A suggested course is
something like this: Play No. 10,
par 4; play over to 13, par 3; play
down 13th fairway to 14, par 5;
play 13, par 4 : aeross-lots to 16,
par 3; play 17, par 4; play 18,
par 5; play 10, par 4; back to
nine, par 4. There's a nine-hole
course, par 36. Plenty 6porty with
brand new water hazards. The
only trouble is you'll meet peo
ple. But the trip out there is well
worth while, just for a glimpse
at the part of the course you
can't play. Of course by today,
the water may have gone down
some, but any loss in scenery
will be compensated by increas
ed playing area.
Yesterday there were two ver
itable rivers pouring across the
lower portions of the course, one
cutting off the first green and the
ninth tee, the ! other boiling In
from the woods alongside the
eighth green. They quickly unite
and spread out ' nearly a quarter
of a mile wide, lapping at the
edge of the seventh green, cover
ing the :11th fairway and green
completely. Water was still, we
estimated, two feet over the high
est point on the fourth green and
covered about one-third of the
11th. It had already receded a
foot. :
One of the queerest things is
. to discover that the seventh
green is actually lower than the
eighth, despi4 that downhill
appearance of the eighth fair
way. And the water coming out
of the woods j near there ap
pears to run uphill.
But it ought to all run away
the early part of this coming week
and clear the stage for the kjek
off of formal competition this 1 sea
son; the qualifying round of the
Active club's third annual - city
tournament, which opens Satur
day the 24 th and runs through
Sunday, May 2. All through May
things will be popping, with
match rounds of this tournament
and also inter-city contests sched
uled for each week.

half as much punch as the pre

happen.
The word "punch" is used ad

and rumors of war among1 the base

remember. It's eettine so that the
fans go out to the ball game when
they want to see a good battle in
stead of purchasing ducats for a

The most celebrated knuckle-tossing

on the scribes, with a couple of well
placed shoves, but took it on the lam
when fists started flying. The other
Gashouse lads ganged up on the
writers, konking them with spiked

but no serious damage resulted.

The familiar, sound, of the drum
beats and the base hits, the old
war cry .of, the clans , and the
crowd, draws closer for 1937 in
the major panorama of American
sports. . :
Baseball's big leagues start the
championship season Monday and
Tuesday. !
. President Roosevelt will throw
out the first ball Monday for the
American league's solo opener in
Washington. The Boston Bees
and the' Philadelphia Nationals
will celebrate patriots day by
playing two games in Boston. This
novelty will be followed on Tues
day by a seven-game program,
rounding out the getaway festivi
ties. If there's a fair break In the
weather, close to 250,000 fans
may witness the double barrelled
openings. The world champion
Yankees entertaining Washington
on Tuesday in their home baili
wick, should draw the biggest
turnout, perhaps 50,000. Capacity
