UO Diamond Nine Headed By Maddox University of Oregon, Eugene (Special) Oregon's Ducks, tied at the top of the Northern Division baseball standings at the end of the first- four games, went into action today when the tough Idaho Vandals invaded Howe field. The clubs also vie Tuesday. The series was expected to provide excellent pitching as the Idaho staff, led by Bill Randall, met the excellent W e b f o o t mound corps paced by Lefty Don Lane, Stan Dmochowsky and Ron Whittaker. Oregon's defense has been shaky in the early stages of the campaign and there may be sev eral changes in the lineup as Coach Don Kirsch prepares first for the Vandals and then for the Washington Huskies next Friday and Saturday. Capt. Terry Maddox figured to be a real problem for both the Vandals and the Huskies as he starts his senior year against both clubs. The talented ex-Med-ford star has already been nam ed on the all-division team in both his sophomore and junior years and his play this spring indicates he will be tougher than ever to keep off the all-star team for the third straight year. Headed Loop Maddox went undefeated as a pitcher in his sophomore year, winning six straight games and batting .353 as well while Ore gon won the pennant. Last spring he pitched only briefly and spent most of the season in the outfield, where he hit .453 and led the league in runs batted in with 26. In the opening game against Oregon State this year he rapped out three hits in six tries and put the 8 to 4 decision on ice in the ninth inning with a three-run double which boosted his runs batted in total to four for the game. He came back the next day to keep the Webfoots in the game with another pair of hits, even though five unearned runs eventually gave the Beavers an 8 to 5 victory. Against Washington State he had two hits in the opener and saved the game with a perfect throw frorh left field in the ninth inning to cut down the tying run at the plate as Oregon won, 5 to 4. In the second game he won the victory with a three-run homer in the last of the tenth which gave the Webfoots a 6 to 3 decision.. Maddox is also a fine student, having won a scholastic scholar ship for the last three years and maintaining an average of better than a B for his four years of work.
