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.

H. P. (Dick) Everest, confer

early hours " Thursday. He said
there would be no action on any

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

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

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
