as It opened its Northwest con
f erence season here today by turn
ing back Lin field In two games.
9 to 8 and S to 8. White, after
going the full nine Innings in the
opener, was called back to hurl
the final two cantos of tire seven
frame nightcap, relieving the Wil
lamette starting pitcher, Hal Mc-
Abee, who lost his controL .. i
Linfleld gathered 10 hits, hat
could counter only one earned
run oft of Whits Jn the opener.
Six Bearcat errors contributed to
aU of the Wildcat scoring. Johnny
Kolb. OIHe Williams, and Jimmy
Robertson all banged out two
blows each to lead the Willamette
hitting attack off Parti ow, Lin
field hurler. Successive doublea
by Southard and Kolb in the final
Inning gave the Methodists the
win.
In the shortened finale. Bill
man, had a perfect day at bat
Belcher, sophomore second base
and drove in four tallies with his
two single and a double. A big
sixth Inning for the Bearcats gave
them the ball game when two
Linfleld errors, a hit batsman,
two hits, and a base on balls were
food for four runs.
Pitcher Hal McAbee ! experi
enced trouble from the start with
his control and with two men on
1n the fifth White was called to
the mound. White allowed but
two hits the remaining distance,
in the opener the lanky mound
mainstay of the Bearcats set down
18 Wildcats via the strikeout
route.
Leading hitters for Willamette
during the two -game program
were John Kolb and Jimmy Rob

tour hits. Robertson, 19-year-old
junior, performed once again In
his usual steady style behind the
plate, and limited the Linfleld
nine to one stolen base during
the doublo-header.

Is Lowest Medal in, Meet
v History; Today Last
.j Day to Qualify -
Bob Utter, runner-up a year
ago, toured the Salem Golf club
course in 69 strokes, three under
par, in qualifying Saturday for the
Active club's sixth annual Salem
city tournament. It was the low
est qualifying medal in the tour
nament's history and there Is lit
tle prospect that it will be bet
tered today since only a few ot
the low-scoring competitors have .
yet to qualify.' Among those few,
however, are Dr. Harold; Ollnger,
defending champion, and Tony
painter, holder of the course reo- -,
ord. .',:-:::r. '
The senior tournament qualify- J
ing list had mounted to 106 by
sundown Saturday. It was expect
ed that tt least 30 -or 40 more'
players would turn in their scores
today but prospects were not good
for an entry list exceeding the
298 recorded a year ago. ;
? Utter's 35 -34 round ' excelled
that of Glean Lengren by two
strokes but Lengren was still four 1
stroke ahead of the field. It ap
peared that : 78 or better would
be necessary to make certain of
a place in. the championship
flgiht, though one or more 79's .
might squeeze in. The low quali
fiers to date are: v 1 i
Utter. 89, Lengrea 71, Walt
Cline, Jr., 76; Don Hendrle, Frank
Albrich and Boh Powell, 78; Dr.
Verne Miller, 1 George Scales, B. ;
Thomson and P. Stoltenberg, 77;
Carl Cover, 78; W. Bertelson, 79;

Tonight Is tne deadline for '
qualifying play; tomorrow the
flights will be made up and first
round opponents announced. Los
ers in the first round will form
new flight t eight and continue
la the second round. - ,
All golfer ot Salem and vicini
