Webfoots Regarded as Cinch
In NCAA's Cinder Encounter
By HAL WOOD
. Eugene, Ore. (UPU Univer
sity of Oregon looked like a
lead-pipe cinch today to win
the NCAA track and field
championships on its own
field as 300 athletes from 90
schools congregated here for
the opening of two days of
competition Friday.
Headed by a trio of great
distance runners, led by Dyrol
Burleson, plus hurdles king
Jerry Tarr, and sprinter Har
ry Jerome, the Webfoots are
expected to tow-rope the field
to take the crown for the first
time in history.
Perennial champion Univer
sity of Southern California
should give the Webfoots
their toughest competition.
Oregon Squad Largest
Coach Bill Bowerman's
Webfoots have 22 men en-tered-by
far the largest squad
in the meet. USC has only 14,
followed by Oregon State
with 13. Villanova, the ICAA
champion, has five men com
peting. Abilene Christian, a
powerhouse from the South
west, has only two.
In past years it has taken
an average of about 60 points
to win this event. Oregon fig
ures to score that many easily.
The entry list was held
down this year somewhat by
the installation of minimum
standards in each event. For
instance, a runner had to have
a mark of 9.5 seconds or bet
ter to be eligible to compete
in the 100.
Raised Approaches
The favored men in this
event are Frank Budd of Vil
lanova, Harry Jerome of Ore
gon and Bob Hayes of Florida
A&M. Budd and Hayes each
has been clocked in 9.2, Jer
ome in 9.3.
The mile event, in which
many athletes used to enter
just so they could get a free
ride, has a minimum standard
of 4:08 this time. That elim
inated all except about 20 this
time-compared with 30 to 40
in other days.
The broad jumpers and pole
vaulters will be introduced to
something new in track and
field equipment here. Host
coach Bill Bowerman has an
elevated running approach for
each event. In the broad jump
the 180-foot approach is a foot
high, made of planks standing
on edge. The surface is made
of plywood covered with asphalt.
Michigan Nine Only
Team Undefeated in
NCAA Baseball Meet
By DON PIEPER
Omaha, Neb. - IUPD - The
stout-hearted Wolverines of
Michigan, who have survived
two thrillers and run off with
another victory, have a life to
spare and the commanding
position in the NCAA nation
al baseball tournament.
They enter tonight's semi
final contest with Texas as
the only unbeaten team in the
double - elimination college
world series. In the first
round, they nipped the Long
horns, 3-1, on a ninth inning
homer. And Wednesday night,
they charged from behind to
deal Florida State its initial
series defeat. 10-7.
Florida State is re-matched
with its first round rival,
Santa Clara, In the other
semifinal encounter. The
Semlnoles won the first time,
5-1. ; . ,
Texas Beats Ithaca

its squad from a male enroll
ment of only 1,000, was sent
back to Now York state by
the Texans Wednesday, 3-2.
Santa Clara outlasted Holy
Cross, 12-7, and ousted the
Fanfare

Mail Tribunt Sports Editor
Crusaders in the other losers'
bracket game.
Santa Clara beat down per
sistent threats by Holy Cross
and trotted into the semi
finals. The Broncos piled up
a 5-0 edge in the first four
innings only to find the Cru
saders pressing, 6-5, after
seven.'
The Broncos, which had
been shoved into the losers'
bracket from their pre-tour-
ney status as favorite by drop
ping the opening game to
Florida State, smacked seven
singles and scored six runs in
the eighth.

PRACTICE RUN This picture of a prac

previously obtained his bach
elor of science degree from

ed his sophomore season for
the University of Oregon
Webfoots, has gone to Slurgis,
S.D., under the auspices of the
Boston Red Sox. to play in a
semi-professional circuit.
Mixed Blessings
That there are mixed bless
ings in local athletics is shown
by the high school grand
stand construction project.
Happily, the 4,000-scut west
side stand is on the way to
junior home game has to be
played at Ashland because of
lack of a diamond here. There
just ought to be another Med-
ford diamond available.
But, perhaps, play of Med-
ford's junior Legion double
header at the Southern Ore
gon college field against Coi
Bay this Sunday afternoon
could turn out to be a bless
ing, too.- We just hope that a
representative group of Ash
landers are on hand to see
how entertaining the junior
Legion brand of ball is. May
be, it could stimulate this
year's thoughts of an Ashland
Legion team into real action
next year.

We were given the privilege
of sitting in with stadium
committeemen this week
when they approved adjust

HONOR OUR FLAG
ON FLAG DAY, JUNE 14.
Steeped in honor and tradition is the official U. S. Marina Corps
Standard, shown above side by side with the American Flag, during
formal ceremonies at Marine Barracks, Washington, 0. C. Throughout
the United States, at U. S. bases overseas, at American Embassies in
foreign lands, United States Marines perform the official honors to
the American Flag. Around the globe the Stars and Stripes fly at more
than 500 stations where Marines are on duty.

of now but their membership
won't be acknowledged as a
matter of form until July 1.
The admission of the Cou
gars came as no surprise. The
AAWU Council, composed of
athletic directors and faculty
representatives of member
schools, steadfastly refused to
discuss the possibility of ex
pansion earlier this week but
stubborn rumors concerning
the Cougars kept flowing.
"We've been interested in
expanding since the confer
ence was formed in 1959,"
said Council President Dr. Ar
thur R. Kooker, who made
the Washington State an
nouncement. "But it was a
matter of Ironing out certain
details.
Kooker, of the University
of Southern California, said
it was the hope of the confer
ence that further expansion
would follow.
"We've gone on record as
hoping that ultimately we
will be able to include our
other Northern neighbors," he
said, "but we did not discuss
any other schools today."
Kooker didn't drop any
names but it was a good bet
he was referring to Oregon
and Oregon State. These two
schools, along with Washing
ton State, were orphaned
when the old Pacific Coast
conference was disbanded in
1958 due to disagreements
over the code under which the
conference operated.
The Cougars will be eligible
for the 1963 Rose Bowl game
even though they meet only
two conference opponents,
Washington and Stanford, In
the coming season. They also
will receive a full share of
receipts from the New Year's
Day classic.

there was gain, there was also

the ball shaggers made off
with nine new balls, Some
thing in the neighborhood of

them. It would be a nice ges

them in the next lime they

Newspaper Advertising
Hits the Mark with a Large
and Constant Audience
There's nothing hit-or-miss about the newspaper audienc
it's a constant audience that varies little throughout the
year. That's because newspaper circulation remains con
Itant with little variation from month to month. There is
no summer slump in newspaper reading habits. Further
more, readers can pick their own time-day or night-to
enjoy the paper. And they do-over 107,000,000 of them
every day in the U S. For sure-fire results, advertise
consistently in the daily newspaper.
