EUGENE 'UPD Oregon's
freshman track team swept to a
94-SI dual meet victory over Clark
Junior College Thursday despite
three victories by Clark's Willard
Nettles.
Ken Moore led Oregon to a mile
sweep in 4 21. Ken Payne won a
49.4 quarter-mile and Barrie Dar

the broad jump at 21-8.
David meets Goliath on Modoe Field tonight it 7 o'clock
in the same eld tradition of the giant against the Utile man.
This time the story may hold true because David will be de
cided tioderdog.
Southern Oregon's track team, one of the most powerful
small college teams In the Northwest, represents Goliath and
Oregon Tech as David, Oregon Tech's "Stanly Six" will be a big
underdog to the Red Raiders. SOC has a massive squad and Is
picked to overpower the six Owls.
The Owls, however, shouldn't be sold short in some of the
events. While they don't figure so poll off the big miracle of
wionkj. neither do they figure to get trampled in the events
they partake in (or first place. The seconds and thirds probably
will overpower the Owls, .
Southern Oregon is coming prepared to make a striking
assault on the school records. The Owls are coming prepared
for the same role.
An added incentive to the participants will be the appear
ance of world famous distance runner Dyrol Burleson. The former
University of Oregon star will appear in this dual track meet
and will compete in the open 880-yard run against the tine SOC
distance men and Bob Bryant of Oregon Tech.
Burly's best time for this distance is t:48.2. This time
set the record at the University of Oregon. He Is a former holder
of the American mile record with a clocking of 3:5?.S. The 23-year-oid
athlete now resides in Eogeoe and runs for the Emerald
Empire Athletic Association.
Burleson's plans are to run a good race here and post a
good time In preparation for his raee against world record holder
Peter Snell of Australia in the mile next week in the Coliseum
Relays in Los Angeles, He will race against Snell, Jim Beatty
and Jim Grelle, to name a few, fn one of the top mile races of
all time. It has some of the world's top stars in the mile run.
When contacted earlier this week Burly said he felt the
weather and condition of the track will be the major factor Is
the time of the race tonight. His appearance tonight will provide
the college entrants some fine competition and should push them
to a fast time. The field events begin at 7:15,

Doug Sanders and Bill Collins,

back where muscles pinch his

heat was helping the pain pills
keep him playable. Collins has to;
