Of course, what seems the most probable reason for this seem­
ing discord would be the unsettled weather that we Oregonians
have had the past eight or nine months or so. ·However, weather
or not, the sports calendar with the exception of tennis ~d golf,
has been followed very spasmodically .
(Still pals, aren't we Messrs. Fix, Smith and Huston?)
In the meantime LC's track team keeps rolling along and
continues to beat everyone. It has advanced to the stage where
LC can claim the city college championship, 01· even the small
college title in Oregon. ·
. ln comparing the times that the Oregon U. cinder squad has
made· thia. year, there. is little doubt that even 'Mighty Oregon'
would finish second in competition with LC. •••••

Valuable Community Progrem
Lewis and Clark's youth leadership program gained
new momentum following the recent college and community
relations meet sponsored by the college.
In recognition of the growing interests in the college
program, the following editorial appeared in the Oregonian
May 15, titled "Collegians in Social Service."
"Portland's Lewis and Clar'k college is making progress
on a unique program to provide the services of students
and faculty for community health, welfare and child-aid
agencies. The conferences which were attended by leaders
of soCial agencies, the faculty and student leaders sought
advice on how the college could be of greatest assistance to
the people. ' 11111111111!1111111111111111111111111111111 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 White L1es

will take two defeats to elim­
inate a-team from the affair.
Puget Sound will go into the
conference track meet the fa­
vorite by virtue of their win in
the seven squad meet in Portland
last 'week-end.
The Pioneers will be represent­
ed strongly by Merlin White in
the 100 and 220; Art Bakke, de­
fending titleholder in the pole
vault; Hal Ellmers, another champ
in his specialty the 880; Archie
McCrae in the low hurdles; Dean
Moore ·in the mile; and Jack
Webber in the two mile.
Bakke will be expected to set
a new conference record in the
pole vault as the former Jeffer­

times this season cleared the
present record of 12 feet 1 7 I 8
inches. This record was set by
Sieverson of Puget Sound in 1933. Knox Wins Tille,

UB·C Wins Toga, Locals Third
By reason of their strong aft­
ernoon golf play, which saw a
morning lead of fifteen strokes
established by the British Colum­
bia squad cut down to nine, the
Pioneer golf team finished a
strong third in the conference
meet last Friday on the Salem
I golf club course.
The win n in g Thunder birds
from Canada had a total of 598
strokes for their four-man team
in the 36-hole contest. College of
Puget Sound followed with 603,
and LC was next in line with 607.
Far behind these three leaders
were the rest of the conference
in the following order: Pacific,
635; Willamette, 645; Linfield, The afternoon round saw the
Pioneers get' 'hot' as Mal Walker
first came in with six strokes off
of his morning round for a 76 and

and added to his morning 78 ~or a
157 total. Sloan came to club­
house with a one-under 71 for a
148 and fifth place in the meets
medalist race.
It remained for methodical Bill
Turne~ · to cap the Pioneers' ef­
forts, as he came in with a sub­
par 70 to go with his first round
74 for a 144 total which was good
enough for runner-up medalist
honors. Bill Plommer of UBC
was the best golfer of the day
with 70-72-142.
