KEN REISER
Enters AAU Steeplechase
continue their steady growth ia track-and-fteld strength might It
wcu o scouting around for a crimsoiplnKd convertible. . . .
Many years ago, when Colonel Mil ifayward received a number
of attractive offers as a track ergon the townspeople tilted thejr
pokes on the bar and collected enough goW present the vet
eran coach and trainer with a gift that induced him to remain on
the Eugene campus It was a .beautiful sporting model ancj it
certainly caught BiTl s eye
. but he didn't tell 'em they
couldn't mdVe him away from
his beloved McKcnzie tfout
stream and Rogue steelhead
strea'm with dynamite. That's
why Bill Hayward coached the
Webfoots for more than 40
years. . . .
You can bet your bottom dollap
that Bill Bowerman, coach of
two straight Northern Division
championships and five Na
tional individual champions,
will be seriously considered for
any track opening of note. . . . L
Bill's three Northern Division
titles in seven seasons is really
something against track powers
like WSC and Washington and
the 29 points scored in the
NCAA in Los Angeles Satur
day is the highest finish and
most points ever collected by
an Oregon squad. The fourth
place is three notches higher
than the seventh place in 1939
when Washington won the title
and the 29 is nine more points
than the 20-point total (ninth
place) in 1952. ...
Bowerman is so well thought-of by his fellow Pacific Coast
Conference coaches that he coached the PCC squad against the
Big Ten in a dual meet at Berkeley Tuesday. . . . The mile vie-,
tory by Jim Bailey and the two-mile triumph by Ken Reiser
Saturday follows the mile victory by Bill Dellinger last year,
Dm Barnes in the high jump in 1952, and Chuck Missfeldt in the
javelin in 1951. ...
Back to Bowerman and the red jalop. We rather believe
that Bowerman is much like Hayward in his love for the Uni
versity of Oregon and this part of the country not for the fish
ing (which certainly, would not satisfy Colonel Bill now), but for
fundamentally the similar reasons. . . . Bill and Barbara are of
pioneer stock and have virtually hacked their homcsite out of the
Coburg hills and hammered and sawed themselves the home they
have always wanted (some day we're going to see how well Bill
' has taught Barbara the art of laying flooring). ... In addition
to a home of their own their family also likes the "wilds." . . .
Bill Bowerman is considerably more than the University of
Oregon track coach. He is also assistant director of athletics and
the founder of the present grant-in-aid system which he is re
sponsible for. . . . We doubt if you could induce Bill to move
from Eugene or the Coburg hills but if and when the time
comes, remember the crimson-red sports car. -.
ir Unless someone proves differently, the victory of
Reiser in the two-mile, Bailey in the mile and Dellinger as a
second in the mile at the Coliseum, several sunny Saturday rec
ords were established. . . . First time one school has had a mile
and two-mile champ in one meet, first time one school has had
a one-two finish in the mile, first time that a school has had two
i sophomore mile champions, and the first time since Larry Shields
and Skyler Enck of Penn State have been mile champions in
consecutive years. . . . The years were 1922-1923, and Fred Flock
of Eugene, former Penn State Rose Bowler says that Enck is
now a dentist at Harrisburg, Pa., and is an educator at well
known Mercersburg Academy in Pennsylvania. . . . There have
been repeaters like Glen Cunningham and Louie Zampcrini.
Because there is no two-mile in the National AAU, Ken Reiser
will compete in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at Boulder, Colo.
. . . With his stamina, he might well be Oregon's first AAU champ
since Boyd Brown in the javelin in 1942. . . . There will be Bill
Dellinger in the mile (against Wes Santee).
Don't sell short the possibility of Jack Morris surprising the
critics, more in the low hurdles than the 100, both of which he
,. will run as a representative of Eddie Durno's newly-formed Med'
ford University Club.
ie Congratulations to the Emeralds management. . . .
The bat boys are now in uniform at Bethel Park. . . . The
fits are not too good, but better than Don Edwards, the Yakima
pitcher who worked Saturday's nightcap. . . . Edwards, by the
way, is an assistant baseball coach at the University of Indiana,
and when Hub Kittle managed Terra-Haute in the Thrce-I league,
pitched for him.

Mgr. Leo Durocher may have
diagnosed (he whole -National
League pennant race when he
explained why he benched Willie
Mays, the darling of the New
York Giants a year ago.
Confused," is the way Leo
pegged Willie's trouble. And if
that doesn't describe the way the
National League is behaving, it'll
do until something better comes
along.
This was supposed to be one of
those "dream races, with every
body getting into the act. Trouble
is, the Brooklyn Dodgers rocketed
away out front and have shown
no signs of faltering while the
other seven clubs grope around
looking for a way out.
It is a pretty dandy race at
that, if you exclude the Dodgers
who are 11 games out front. The
second-place Cubs are just 2V4
games up on Milwaukee. The
Giants are another two games
back and two games ahead of
fifth-place Cincinnati. Philadel
phia and St. Louis are a virtual
tie for sixth another game back.
Only Pittsburgh, 25 games behind
the Dodgers, is solidly in the cel
lar.
Milwaukee moved up on the
Cubs as Gene Conley won his
ninth decision Monday night, 2'
over Pittsburgh. Cincinnati, mean'
while, made it five straight de
feats for the Mays-less Giants,
5-3, and St. Louis topped Phila
delphia 4-1 with Rookie Luis Ar
royo winning his eighth.
Brooklyn and the Cubs were
idle. So was the entire American
league.
The Braves made it four
straight behind Conley's four
hitter, although getting just four
hits themselves off loser Vern
Law and Bob Purkey.
Arroyo, beaten only twice
dropped his earned run average
to 1.91 and batted in two runs
with a single and after becoming
the father of a baby boy earlier
in the day.
Cincinnati broke Jim Hearn'
hitless spell in a four-run fifth
inning. Hearn contributed a run
scoring error as the Redlegs got
four singles and a double by Stan
Palys in the frame.

The Seattle Ralniefs, fresh
from feasting on the San Brands
co Seals for a ful week, change
their diet toBears from Sort
land Tuesday night and njay find
trj chewing a little tougher.
TRe.Raimers dined well on the
Seals seven straight but the
third-place Beavers look like a
little stiller opposition. Seattle,
only one game behind first-place
San Diego, will, shoot the works
in an attempt tp itake .over me
lead.
San Diego should have easier
going in its home park against
the Sad Sacs of Sacramento. The
Capital City creW seemingly is
destined for a last-place finish
after a surprisingly early-season
spurt, but is enjoying the com
pany of San Francisco.
Tommy ' Heaths . Seals move
down to Los Angeles, where Bob
Scheffing is having as much
trouble with the Angels as did
his departed predecessor, Bill
Sweeney. A good series, for the
Seals could tumble the Angels
into seventh place and pull the
San Franciscans up a notch U
sixth. The two are separated by
only 1V4 games.
Hollywood and Oakland will bat
tle for the middle spot in the
standings at Emeryville.

SAN -FRANCISCO (ID Jim
Golliday, NorthwcVern Univer-,
sity's great sprinter, will be seek
ing a new world record in Hie
100-yard dash Tuesday night
when the Pacific Cgast Confer
ence and the Big Ten tangle in
their 14th renewal oj their track
and field feud.
Golliday tied the world record
sf 9.3 earlier this year and on the
fast track at Edwards field may
be able to better that. He also is
given a very good chance of eras
ing a 13-year-old mark for the
meet, the 9.5 set by Hal Davis of
California in 1942, and equalled
by Willie Williams of Illinois in
1953.
The Pacific Coast Conference,
with an 8-5 lead in victories
again is favored to win this meet
with ''the major portion of the
help coming from the USC Tro
jans, recent winners of the
NCAA championship.1
Young Bobby Scamarl of UC
LA, who recently was clocked in
4:01.4 for the mile, has announc
ed he will run in the half-mile,
instead for this meet. But Bill
Dellinger and Jim Bailey of Ore
gon and Sid Wing of the Trojans
both have bettered the meet
mark of 4:09.4, set by Don Lash
of Indiana in 1937.
One of the top races on the
menu was expected to be in the
880 between Michigan's Pete
Gray and Oregon's Bailey. Gray
chased Fordham's Tom Courtney
to a new NCAA half-mile record
last Saturday, while Bailey
knocked off teammate Dellinger
in the mile.

In Western Open
PORTLAND, Ore. (m The
golfer who keeps his driver and
wedge hot will be tne winner of
the $15,000 Western Open golf
championship starting here
Thursday, the host pro said Tuesday.
Larry Lamberger, professional
at the Portland. Golf Club who is
familiar with every blade of grass
in the lush, rolling course, also
said he didn't believe the 261
fired by Ben Hogan in winning
the 1945 Portland Open over the
same course would be equalled,
or even threatened.
Lamberger said be believed a
score of 275 would be good
enough for the title. He said pos
sible winners are Gene Littler,
Ed Porky Oliver, Sam Sncad and
Julius Boros.
The Portland course will meas
ure a little more than 6600 yards
for the four-day event. The rough
is not too devastating and the
greens are excellent Lamberger
predicts good putters will have a
field day in dropping in long
ones.

Moore at 2-1
To Heat Olson
NEW YORK (IB-Bobo Olstm
wants an oxygen tank to help win
the light heavyweight title from
38-year-old Archie Moore Wednes
day night at the Polo Grounds.
Dr. Sam Sherman of San Fran
cisco, personal physician to mid
dleweight champion Olson, ' will
ask the boxing commission for
permission to administer oxygen
to Bobo between rounds.
Trainer Fred Bianchi explained
Tuesday, "The oxygen will give
him a lift. Yes, we've used it be
fore in a few fights, including the
one with Joey Maxim on April
13."
Meanwhile, it appeared the
oxygen might be necessary; for
Moore became a 2-1 betting fa
vorite, and bookies said he prob
ably would - go into the ring at
3-1. A poll of 26 sports writers
resulted in 19 picking Moore to
win and only seven selecting Ol
son. Eleven of the 19 Moore vot
ers predicted a kayo.
Promoter Jim Norris gave some
encouragement to Olson when he
disclosed that Bobo would be giv
en serious consideration as Sep
tember heavyweight challenger if
he beats ancient Archie im
pressively Wednesday night.
Olson loafed at his camp in
Asbury Park, N. J., Wednesday;
but Moore said he might spar two
more rounds at Summit, N. J., to
help keep his weight down to
close to the required 175 pounds
Archie predicted, "I'll come in at
1741b pounds, and 1 11 knock Ol
son out."

FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT BLITZ WEINHARD
The cold air in Blitz VCeinhard's fermenta
tion, storage and finishing cellars is the
freshest, purest air possible. It haS been run
through' a precipitron, an electrical device
that removes all dust and other air-borne
particles.
Blitz has just installed a new tile yeast
room with 100 per cent stainless steel equip
ment. Here, the temperature is held to an
even 32 F. and the air is thoroughly fil
tered ideal conditions for the preserva
tion of yeast.
The average temperature of most home
and tavern refrigerators about 42F.
is the most generally-approved drinking
temperature for beer. Keep your refrig
erator well stocked with Blitz . , . today's

In Portland's big Blitz brewery, as in any housewife's
kitchen, refrigeration facilities are mighty important. "
Take the natural process of fermentation, for example,
which happens after near-boiling mash extract is rapidly
cooled to precisely 48F. Or the aging and finishing
of Blitz beer in spotless, freezing-cold cellars filled with
glass-lined steel tanks, each big enough to hold more
than 18,000 gallons.
And, like the "vegetable crisper" in a modern refrigerator;
Blitz Weinhard's hop storage room is cooled and
humidified to the exact point known to be best
for holding the delicate flavors of choicest hops.
It's Dr. Max Zimmermann, Blitz brewmaster and
world-renowned beer-making authority, who watches
over the temperature in all parts of the brewery. He knows
that carefully-controlled refrigeration is one of many
factors behind the light, clean beer taste you prefer.
Here's another reason why, for beer that always tastes best
...to you and your guests ... Better Buy Blitz!
