4 Trojans Favored a PCC M ens Eugene Site Of Big Show Trojan ?Poosli- em-Up' Man Senators - ; -Game Series With Yaks I Op r ! Onen Four New Records Likely; Mile to Be Feature EUGENE Ml Southern Cali fornia, the nation's perennial track power, is a solid favorite to retain its Pacific Coast Conference cham pionship Friday and Saturday but its talented stars face some of the toughest competition in years. UCLA and Stanford teams are rated as probably strong 2-3 fin ishers, and host Oregon, with sev eral potential first-place winners, looked like an impressive fourth. The cinders promise to be fast and the high caliber of the run ning talent could result in some meet records. The half-mile, mile and two-mile standards appear to be in most danger. One of the best races in the 25th annual conference meet should be in the mile. Test for Dellinger Bill Dellinger, Oregon, defending conference j and NCAA champion, figures to be hard pressed by Bob Seaman. Two Southern California men, 'Sid Wing and Marty Mont gomery, are given outside chanc es. : i , Seaman, at 4:10.7, and the USC runners all ' have recorded faster times than ! Dellinger this spring but Oregon backers believe their man can take it all when the big stakes are down. - Oregon's Jim Bailey, a sopho more from Australia, has turned in the fastest half-mile of the sea son 1:51.5 but he will have hard going with Seaman if the UCLA ace enters the event Bailey may double up, too, in the mile; an event in which he has beaten Del linger. . Reiser Threat USCs Fernando Lesdcsma, who boasts a 9: 10 performance, and UCLA's-Bob Hunt are favored in the two-mile but Oregon's Ken Reiser is a strong threat at that distance. There is a brilliant field for the 100- and 220-yard dashes. Bob Gary, runnerup in both events last season, will be out to beat such ,men as Keith Brownsberger of Stanford; Pat Coyle and Howard Bugbee of USC and Bruce Spring bett of Oregon. Walt Garrett, Stanford, runner- up in the quarter-mile in 1934, has posted a :47.7 mark this year. But he will have stout opposition from Mike Larrabee, USC, and Russ Ellis. UCLA. 3-Way Relay Contest The mile relay figures to be a three-team affair among USC, UCLA and Stanford. USC and UCLA are expected to dominate both hurdles. USC has both talent and depth in the field events and should score heavily there." Much of the inter; est in the meet centers around Ernie Shelton, USCs ' sensational high-jumper.. Shelton," who has been doing 6-10 almost every week, will be leaping for 7 feet and a world record. Preliminaries of the meet will get underway at Hayward Field at 3:30 p.m. Friday. Finals are scheduled, on Saturday. Meadows Results: Track fast, weather cloudy. Jet race, quarter horses, $400. 350 yds., all aces.

H. P. (Dick) Everest, confer ence spokesman, said only about half the complaints had been han dled despite a session into the early hours " Thursday. He said there would be no action on any until each had been considered in relation to others. The summer meeting, he said. was needed because greater con sideration is being given to com plaints and evidence; it does not mean more serious or more nu merous violations than in past years. . The next regular conference meeting is set for Dec. 4- in San Francisco. Eight Cleveland errors were the story as Central Catholic remained in the running for the title. Winning hurler Joe Maetin gave four hits to the three yielded by the Portland ers Keith Krupke. A throwing er ror in the sixth inning gave Colum bia Prep the two runs needed to edge Springfield. Joe Etzel of the Preps gave four blows. Hugh Hen ry of Oregon City gave up only three hits and fanned 14 as Grants Pass bowed. Jim French knocked in three runs for O-City with a second-inning triple.-: , ll ly I llllHMlaagl lll-lll.lllWWMMM 2, Win Washington twice 8-4 and 7-3, while the Cubs held on to their second spot in the National by smacking the St. Louis Cardinals 3-0. By sweeping the twin bill while runnerup Cleveland was splitting a pair with Chicago's White Sox, the Yankees wrapped' up a long home stand with 12 victories in their last 14 games. They knocked off the Senators behind the full-length pitching of Johnny Kucks in the first game and a joint effort by young Bob Wiesler and veteran Jim Konstan- ty in the nightcap, with a touch of slugging by Yogi Berra and Eddie Robinson. Pollett Victor At Chicago, the Cubs swept their three-game set with the Red Birds on the six-hit pitching of Howie Pollett and the continued hot hit ting of rookie Bob Speake. . It was the 23th shutout in the 33-year-old lefty's long career and the sixth of the season by the Chi cago staff as the Cubs grabbed their 11th victory in the last 13 games. 7th' For Newcombe That kept the Cubs six lengths behind the Brooklyn Dodgers, who disposed of Pittsburgh 6-2 with a four-run ninth inning to give Don Newcombe his seventh decision without defeat. The third place New York Giants fell off the pace, dropping their fourth straight to Philadelphia 3-2 m 11 innings as the Phils' Richie Ashburn took the NL batting lead with a .400 average on four hits in six trips.

IXIttUSOUUl Home Gashes - Hurling Staff Rested, Ready for Big Week By AL L1GHTNER Statesman Sports Editor The town Senators return to Northwest League baseball action tonight, following a four-day lay off with a bye, and go against the Yakima Bears in an eight o'clock clash at Water Field. The mix will see the beginning of an important eight-game home stand for the Salems, four games being booked with ; Mgr. Hub Kittle's climbing Bears, and four more with Edo Vanni's league- leading Wenatchee Chiefs, start ing Monday. Battle for Top Spot Wenatchee, Yakima and Salem, along with the Eugene Emeralds and Tri-City's Braves, are mak ing a battle of it for the top rung ; in ' the loop standings, and al though Vanni's Chiefs are com fortably in front at present. Gen eralissimo Hugh Luby feels that a successful home stand will ele vate the Solons into solid conten tion for first place. Single games with Yakima are set for tonight and Saturday aft ernoon. Then comes the 2 p.m. Sunday doubleheader, closing out the series with the Bears. Wenat chee comes abosrd for a Monday (Memorial Day) doubleheader in the afternoon 1:30 and single games on Tuesday and Wednes day nights. Wortham to Open His hurling staff well rested during the four-day bye, Luby feels that it i-. ready for action during the big weekend at home. He can start with any one of the seven flingers now on the staff, and likely will lead off with Long John Wortham (2-2) in tonight's commencer, with Bill (Red) Vhitson (2-1) going Saturday afternoon. The Bears' staff is headed by Ted Edmunds, the burly right hander who won 19 games for Yakima last season. Ted once toiled in Senators livery and pitched in 58 games here in 1953. Other members of the Bears squad who will be recognizable by Senators fans include Dennis Luby, catcher with Salem last season; Herm Lewis, the hard hitting outfielder who can also play first base; Die' Young, hard throwing x o u n g righthanded pitcher; Des Charouhas, fine fielding outfielder, and Keith Bowman, capable curve-ball flinger. Since Dick Traversi has been released, Danny Holden, the left hand hitting vet witli Vancouver last year likely will play first base for the Senators. Also, new Lefty Pitcher Marion Cowdell, secured from the New York Giants chain Tuesday, will no dcubt se action in the long home stand. Baylor Rumored Chieftain-Bound SEATTLE UFi The Post-Intelligencer reported Thursday night that Elgin Baylor, 31-point-a-game College of Idaho basketball player, has indicated he will transfer to Seattle University next fall. Baylor would miss a year of bas ketball as a transfer but, as be is a freshman now, would have two seasons left in which to play for Coach Al Brightman's famed ball hustlers.

Commercial Lake Fishing Open Saturday Commission Offers "Weekly Trout Report Over 1,000 new fishing holes will be available to anglers of the state Saturday, when the high lakes and reservoirs of Oregon are scheduled to open. The opening will include such popular spots as Crane Prairie reservoir and Davis, North and South Twin, and Lava lakes. Although the lakes are legally open the .Oregon Game Commis sion suggests that anglers check on road conditions before they enter the high country to make sure which lakes are accessible. The U. S. Fonest Service issues a road and trail report each week, and the Oregon Highway Depart ment has information on other highways of the state. Because of the late spring, many of the high lakes will still be ice bound on that date and for several weeks to come. Many trails and roads will also be blocked with snow. East and Paulina lakes are heavily coated with ice, and the camp grounds are covered with snow. The ice is breaking up in Big Lava, and anglers should be able to fish by the week end. The road to Big Lava is plowed to within three-quarters mile.. The North . Century Drive is open as far as Bear Springs. Anglers are, warned to take warm clothing, sleeping bags, and tents as late snowstorms are not only possible but probable. Chains and shovels should be standard equip ment in every rig that heads into the high Cascades. Bag limits for most lakes are 10 fish per day, not more than 5 (Continued on page 3.)
