Duck Swimmers Down Aero Club Tankers 38-28 Relay Events Give UO Team Victory The University of Oregon swim team notched victories in the linal two events of the day to edge out the Aero Club of Portland 38 28 Saturday at the Men's Pool. ' Tye Steinbach's youthful Aero paddlers held a narrow 28-26 lead as the meet headed into the final events, the 180-yard medley re lay nd the 160-freestyle relay. The Ducks captured the relay events, however, and with them the meet. Yosh Terada, Milt Ko toshiroda, and Jim Allan gave Oregon its win in the 180-yard medley relay, while Henry Kaiura, Dave Houck, Harry Fuller, and Kotoshlroda combined to form the winning 160-yard free style team. Bob Gregson, a 15-year old freshman from Longview high school, grabbed individual hon ors for the meet with two firsts and one second. The young Aero Club tank star won the 100 yard breaststroke and the 200 yard freestyle and placed second in the 100 yard freestyle. A feature of the meet was an exhibition of diving which saw Oregon's Pete Charlton, put on a terrific performance gaining 38 out of a possible 40 points. 2 Results: i r' 40 yard freestyle: Won by Dave Houck (Orcaunl; 2 Danny Cramer (Aero Club) -Rav WesUard (Aero Club) Time '100 yard breaitstroke Won by Bob Grrmon AC) 2 dick KucKeascnei iuj Shrill Wpctunll fAC.l Time 1:06.6.

The group of local sportsmen base their recommendation on the basis that the Walton League of fers small return for the high costs of membership; inadequacy of state division organization; that the chapter would be much better off to be free to develop its own plans and cooperations. A new name proposed for the group is "Outdoor Patriots".

Interest High for Globetrotter Game Chris Sets Pace In District 6-1 Gunnar Christiansen, defending District 6 scoring champ, was still leading the pack as the Di vision 1 race ended Its first week of play.

District 6-1 scorers with 20 points or more: I n 2 14 2 11 2 0 Miller Matmen Lose at Home By EDDIE ROBINSON KeslsUr-Guard Snorts Writer The Springfield High wrestling squad went down to its first de feat of the season, 32-14, at the hands of the Lebanon High grap plers Friday afternoon in Spring field. The Lebanon matmen chalked up four wins by falls and four by decision to nab their third conse cutive team victory without a de feat for the current season. The Millers won four matches one by a fall and three by deci sion. The Warriors scored heavily In the first four bouts and it wasn't until the fifth event, that a Springfield, Dale Evans, managed to get into the win column. Evans tallied a few points In the second round and "stalled out" the final round, Doug Williams, Springfield's only seasoned veteran in the mat game, was another Miller winner as he downed Bob Griffith in the 140-pound brackeet. Lebanon then won three con secutive bouts until Springfield's Masked : Marvel, Ken . Kesey, downed Lebanon's Joe Sprague in the 177-pound division. Kesey, fighting with a black aviator hel met over his head, turned in one of the Millers most aggressive performances of the match. Springfield's last win came in the heavies, as their promising sophomore, Bob Strickland, edged Eldon Thompson in another of the better matches. Lebanon won two of the exhibi tion bouts and took a draw in the third. Springfield's next meet is Fri day, Jan. 18, at Corvallis. Summary; S7 nound Beaton (L) fall over Fountain (SI. 109 lb.

Horses will run at Portland Meadows from May 1 through June 14, except on Sundays. Greyhounds were assigned dates from June 16 to Aug. 16, in clusive, at Multnomah Stadium in Portland; and then, after a week's lay-off for the Multnomah County fair meet, will return for a final five-days, Aug. 25-29. Roger Wiley " and Mel Krause, a pair of former Oregon basket ball standouts, have joined the squad of ex-collegians who will face the famed Harlem Globe trotters here at McArthur Court on January 22. Both the ex-Webfoots are now coaching, Wiley in his third sea son at Bend and Krause in his initial year at Milwaukie High. For the past two seasons Wiley's Lava Bears have won their district championship and appeared at the state tournament. While in college both men were named to the all-Northern Divis ion team, Wiley in 1948 and 1949 and Krause in 1951. Last year Krause had the finest season of his career, setting a new Oregon field goal shooting record of .76 for the conference campaign. The Trotters are now in their Silver Anniversary season and everything points to it being the best in their history. Last year the touring cage experts appear ed in 154 games in their regular season, then played a series with the College All-Stars before mak ing a South American and Euro pean tour which was highlighted by crowds of 50,000 in Brazil and 75,000 in Berlin. Tickets for the game here are now on sale at McArthur Court. Reserved seats are $1.80 and stu dent tickets will be available to university students Monday at 60 cents. Other student tickets will go on sale later at the same price. Scores Well BRIDGEWATER, Va. tVP) Bob Richards, winner of the 1951 Sullivan Award as the amateur athlete of the year, demonstrated he can play basketball as well as pole vault. He scored 28 points on 14 field goals for the alumni against the Bridgewater varsity. The varsity won, 86-85.

WSC Coaching lob Offered To Popular Evashevski Aid (Continued from Page 11) the NCAA western regional at Kansas-City and Oregon won it with Jim Bartelt's field' goal in the last 28 seconds. . . . Oregon beat WSC 66-57 and 57-55 here last . year. We'd like to recommend that the Oregon athletic department hire an athlete for a special work project adding the number of custo mers who enter each gate and announce the total attendance some time during the second half. It would be a service to the inquisitive spectators and a big help in making more accurate game stories. MAIL-A-BUCK ir Reports have arrived at this desk telling of the talents of John Tuft, Mapleton High sophomore, rated by some experts aa the best prep hoopster in Lane County. But Al Johnson, superin tendent of schools at Mapleton and a good judge of basketball talent, tells that Tuft, 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weighing 165 pounds, is a better baseball prospect than a hoopster a pitcher. . . . The Tufts arrived in the Mapleton community last year, from Skykomlsh, Wash,, where Charles Tuft, 19-year-old brother, was an outstanding athlete and a crackerjack southpaw pitcher. Charles, 6 feet and 175 pounds, is now working in a sawmill, but is thinking of going to college. . . . The father, Wes, is also a good pitcher and all three Tufts played semi-pro ball last summer. . . . Johnon, by the way, is hobblin' around with his right leg in a cast the result of a broken fibula while playing basketball, MAIL-A-BUCK Tr Frank Lubin. the All-American hoopster at UCLA (1927 vintage) and on the 1936 Olympic team, is one of the most dura ble basketball players in the nation. ... He is playing- for a minor league team in Los Angeles and the former star of 20th Century Fox recently scored 11 points against a good Navy team that in cluded George Yardley in the lineup 25 years after his All-Ameri can ranking. . , . That's comparable to George Andre, member of the French Olympic team, who placed in the hurdles In 1908 and re peated in 1924. ... Bob Parks, former Oregon javelin thrower (NCAA champ) and football quarterback, coached Jordan High (Long Beach, Calif.) to an 8-2 grid record last season. . . . Bob is former coach at Oregon City High. ... Jack Fricl of WSC believes that Gene Conley's success as a base ball pitcher (he was ranked No. 1 Minor League player of the year) is the result of excellent control and predicts he will be a Big League star with the Boston Braves. . . , Conley was Frield's sophomore center on the Cougar club that lost out to UCLA for the PCC crown in 1950.

Coach Bill Borcher ordered the much-needed rest, but will return his Webfoots to work Monday in preparation for the most vital ser ies of the season to date against Washington's top-heavy favorites in Seattle next Friday and Satur day. Coach Don Kirsch's combined JV-Frosh squad return to action next Saturday at Corvallis,' the first of a six-game series against the OSC JV's. Oregon's varsity is certain to retain the Northern Division lead at least until next weekend's ser ies against the Huskies. .Bob Peterson continues to pace the Oregon scoring after a 14- game campaign that has brought a 7-7 record to date. The big for ward, one of the nation's rebound leaders, has 207 points and a 14.8- point average. He is followed by Chet Noe with 177 points and a 12.6-point average, and Ken Hunt, captain and guard, is the only other Webfoot with an average of 10 points or better and a 140 point total. Only other player to hit three figures in the scoring is Kenny Wagner, sophomore guard, with 104 points.

(U.R) The worst rain and windstorm in the history of the touring golf professionals washed out the sec ond round of Bing Crosby's 10, 000 National Pro-Amateur golf tournament and at the same time helped widen a split in the Pro fessional Golfers Association. Horton Smith, president of the PGA tournament, said that a near hassle developed after he and the tournament committee failed to call off Friday's competition in a near-gale that sent scores sky rocketing and left early-starter Jimmy Demaret in the lead with a two-over-par 74. As a result of Saturday's post ponement that came after an inch and one-half of rainfall in 24 hours, the tournament has been reduced to a 36-hole affair, with the finals slated for Sunday. However, prospects for decent golfing weather tomorrow ap peared slim. The weather bureau forecast a "wind velocity of 45 miles an hour with occasional showers" for the area. The main protesting members were Dr. Cary Middlecoff and E. J, "Dutch" Harrison, two of the nation's top-ranking golfers, "All scores should have been cancelled," said Harrison. "In my many years of playing, that was the worst weather I've ever tried to navigate. On the 17th hole, which is 371 yards, I used a driv- two-wood and two-irons and hit them all full to reach the green. That isn't good conditions for golf.

The record was brought to light after Tigard defeated New berg 96-31 last Tuesday. That looked like a record. Then Oregon City came up with two 1945 scores. They de feated Canby 99-23 and 96-20. That too looked like a record until Valsetz recalled Its high scoring game. PULLMAN, Wash. (P) Alton Kircher, headed for the Univer sity or Iowa as an $8700 a year assistant to Forest Evashevski, was picked Saturday to succeed him as head football coach at Washington State College. KirMhor wouldn't sny he was officially accepted. He said he wants to tell Evashevski first in person. Evashevski, who resigned at WSC a week ago and said Kircher and two other aides would go with him to Iowa, is due bark Sunday from the National Coaches meet ing at Cincinnati. The job was offered to the 41-1 year-old backfield coach after a long meeting with WSC regents and Dr. William Pearl, acting president of WSC. Kircher, one of the greatest all round athletes ever turned out at Michigan Slate College, came here from MSC with Evashevski two years ago.
