1 TEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, April 12, 1957 Ex-Tornadoes Morris, Bingham, Moad, Williams Duck Tracksters Coach Bill Bowerman's strong Oregon track and field squad, un beaten in Northern Division dual meets since late in the 1955 sea son, opens its 1957 campaign Saturday against a tough Wash ington State team at Pullman. The meet may match some of the top sophomores in the con ference as Oregon sends Steve Anderson, Phil Knight, Jim Grelle, Bob Amble, Gene Estes, Jack Burg, Gerry Christian and Mark Robbins against the Cougar rookies led by Steve Frye and Kernanen. Oregon has a solid group of veterans, paced by the incom parable Jim Bailey, Martin Pedi go, Ed Bingham, Jack Morris, Jack Brown, Doug Basham and Sam Whitney, who are also counted on heavily to score against the Cougars as Coach Bowerman looks for his fourth straight win over Washington State. Anderson, the versatile rookie from Tacoma, will team with Morris and Brown in the sprints, join Morris and Basham in the low hurdles, and also take a turn at the broad jump with Pedigo and Sam Taylor. He also may enter the javelin along with Bingham if Coach Bowerman sees a need for the chance at extra points. Bailey, the second fastest miler in the history of racing and un beaten in collegiate 880-yard competition, will run one or two races. If he goes in the mile, he Owners Asked To Keep Animals From Roaming Portland Though the weath erman mav not be indicating it in some parts of the state, spring is just around the corner. This means one thing to the wild birds it's time ,to nest. It is also the most dangerous time of the year for them. Though winter weather often works hardships on them, preda tors take their toll now. Among some of the worst predators on nests are free running domestic dogs and cats. They not only kill the nesting birds but will destroy any nest they may en counter. Fall hunting populations of game birds are dependent on good spring crops of young ones. If nests are destroyed or the nesting females killed, it means that many less birds come fall hunting season. The Oregon State Game com mission urge all pet owners to keep their animals from roam ing the fields for the next few months and give the birds a chance to raise their families. BANKER EISENHOWER Chicago (U.R) Earl D. Eis enhower, brother of the Presi dent, is board chairman of the suburban Hillside Savings and Loan Association. will be joined by Grelle and Jeff Williams, another sopho more. If he sticks with the 880, he will have Lee Thornton and Don Steen as running mates. Basham, along with Glen Small, still another rookie, form a good high hurdle entry and Christianson, Christian and either Taylor or Schwarz will run for the Webfoots in the 440 yard dash. Jack Moad and possibly Will Reeve will handle the shot put for the Ducks with Amble, Estcs and perhaps Paul Tuchardt set in the discus. Ken Grant and Terry Sullivan will get their first test in the high jump, generally re garded as the weakest event in the Duck armor. Whitney and Burg, who went 13 feet 6 inches last week, are the likely entries in the pole vault and Robbins and Knight will test the Cougars in the two mile.
