But San Diego's Ray Rip pelmeyer has a 9-1 record and 2.72 earned run average with 118 innings pitched. He could usurp some of Reed's crowns before the season is over. Aurelio Montegudo of Port land has fanned 173 batters, while San Diego's Sammy El lis has recorded 80 walks to lead that department.

Blending Fast Backfield, New Line To Be Chore at Oregon University of Oregon, Eu gene - The blending of one of the nation's fastest and best backfields and a brand new line will be the major chore of Head Coach Len Casanova and his capable staff when Oregon opens fall practice for the 1963 football season on Sept. 1. The Webfoots' classy back field, dubbed the "firehouse four," is headed by All-America halfback Mel Renfro, who established school records for rushing, touchdowns and scor ing last season. This Webfoot slicker will have plenty of offensive as sistance from junior quarter back Bob Berry, senior half back Larry Hill and senior fullback Lu Bain. Berry was spectacular last fall in his rookie campaign and rates as one of the nation's most dar ing and top quarterbacks. Dean on First Unit Hill was one of the area's most dependable halfbacks a year ago when he averaged 6.4 yards per rushing attempt and was outgained in Duck ground statistics only by Ren fro, while Bain moves to the first unit fullback spot, after two years of playing under study to Renfro, on the basis of a tremendous spring prac tice. Graduation created six va cancies in the first unit line, including All - American tackle Steve Barnett, All- Coast tackle Ron Snidow and All - Coast guard Mickey Ord' ing. Casanova is replacing them with a "New Frontier line, composed primarily of reserves from a year ago. At the conclusion of spring drills, the first unit line shap ed up like this: vets Dick Im- walle, the only 1962 returning regular, and Rich Schwab at ends; Ray Johnson and Lowell Dean, both lettermen, at tackles; letter winners Ron Jones and Dave Wilcox at guards and non - letterman Oliver McKinney at center.
