Bennett gets 400th win,
Bulldogs chalk up four
hyGtei—Halter
CSUF baseball coach Bob Bennett
marked: up his 400th Bulldog win last
Friday, and waa honored before Sun¬
day s game with a plaque and a cake.
But it was the team who put the icing
on the cake ss they swept a four game
weekend, and set up this weekend's
homestend against their only Northern
California - Baseball Association rival, -
UOP.
In Friday's game at San Jose, Rich
'Bordi hurled a three hit shutout te give
Bennett his 400th win, and the Bulldogs
a 4-0 victory.
It should have been a "Bennett week¬
end" (indeed. Brad Bennett made a
belly-flop catch to. end the Sunday
Oregon State game), but Ken Weibe
and. John Westmoreland had other
ideas.....
Wiebe went.'4 for 6 in Saturday's
first game against the Spartans, includ¬
ing his second home run of the season
and a double, as the Bulldogs blasted
San Jose 12-7.
Curt Reade took his first win after the
Spartans had chased both Jon Reelhorn
and Jeff Gladden off the mound.
In the conclusion of the double header,
Westmoreland equaled Wiebe's effort,
driving in four runs on a double and a
homer, in a 8-3 CSUF win.
Tony Herron won bis seventh game of
the season, giving up six hits, but just
three runs.
It was Ken Wiebe again in the week¬
end finale against Oregon State as he
belted out a home run and a double.
His two run homer in the sixth inning
proved to be the winning run in Fresno's
12-7 win over the Beavers.
David Weber chalked op his first
win of the season, after he bailed out
Gladden in the fifth inning.
Friday the UOP Tigers come to Beiden
Field to face the Bulldogs for the first
lime this season in a fight for first place.
UOP is the only team that is close to
CSUF in the NCBA.
Electric bucking machine
will be part of Rodeo Days
It you have ever wanted to try your
hand at riding a bucking horse but have
never gotten around to it, the Rodeo
Club's electric bucking machine could
solve your problem.
El Toro, the club's bud—rig machine,
will be just one of many rodeo events
taking place on the CSUF campus during
Rodeo Days April 9-11. The three-day
event, which is being sponsored by the
CSUF Rodeo Club and Miller
Distributing Company, will precede the
CSUF Rodeo, which will be held at the
Fresno Fairgrounds April 12 and 13.
According to Dave Fischer, president
of the Rodeo Club, Rodeo Days is de¬
signed to try and get more CSUF stu¬
dents involved in the CSUF rodeo.
Fischer said the electric bucking
machine will be set up on the grass by
the Keats Campus Building across from
the Bookstore during the three days.
For 50 cents, anybody can try their hand
at El Toro.
The Block n Bridle Club will also have
a barbecue in the Free Speech Area
Friday, April 11.
An additional event has been added
to the usual list of events at the rodeo,
an event limited to teams of non-rodeo
club studenta.
The event will consist of 12 teams of
four students, With the teams equally
split between the sexes. Each team will
have to run the length of the arena,
put a pair of panto on a calf and then
drag the calf to the other end of the
arena.   -
The team with the fastest time will
receive a keg of beer from Miller Dis¬
tributing, Fischer said. Entries for the
event must be in by April 5 and the event
will be limited to 12 teams.
Entry information can be obtained
from Dr. Gary Heusner in Animal
Sciences in San Ramon 1.

it out for the slot and thus far, Toscsno
seems to have an edge.
Tbscano, who last year as a freshman
came on midway —rough the season to
displace Kaiser only to be injured late
in the year, haa proved to be the most
consistent passer, Sweeney says. Every
ball each passer has thrown in practice
I thus for has been charted, whether
caught or not, snd the coverage used on
the pass jotted down aa well. Based on
that date, Toscano haa earned the higher
marks.
"At running back, Ted Torosian has
stood out aa a fullback, allowing "stren¬
gth and durability," while Kan Lovely,
Keith Gflpt#a>?4flowW.iV**™ done
well at half-*—, or tailback.    -
On defense, one athlete who has
caught the .eye of Sweeney is Melvin
Graves, a defensive back from Santa
Maria. Heavily recruited by CSUF, as
well as other PCAA and Pac 10 schools,
the'former Alan Hancock JC'er has
shown "excellent range and a great
willingness to hit," Sweeney said.
Other members of the secondary
noted were Wendell Williams, Anthony
Washington and Tim Washington as
comerbacks. Graves plays a safety posi¬
tion.
Sweeney said he will start to work on
the kicking game thia week and may
unleash a couple of proopecte Saturday
when the team holds their next scrim¬
mage at Ratcli]ffe Stedium.
'We're right in the embryo stage
now,* Sweeney noted. To a- trained
observer, there sre a number of thtags
which need definite fmprt^merit. But
for now, we have to be pleased.*

Softball team wins twice
Making it look easy, CSUF women's Softball team warmed up by taking a
non-league double-header horn San Joee State here last Friday.
We—to Ward and Rosie Garcia combined for a no-hitter as Fresno took
the first game 3-0. Joy Zimmerman and Garcia allowed only one hit in the
Bt—dog's second 9-0 win.
Keeping the momentum going, Fresno split a double-header Saturday
against Cal State Northridge. Northridge took the first game 2-1. North¬
ridge 'a pitcher Kathy Srhiirman allowed only 3 hits from the Bulldogs:
'We were surprised shout the pitcher from Northridge, she's, new this
year and good. The best pitcher we've played against so for.* aaid Coach
* Donna Pickel. 'We got an illegal placement of the pitcher called on us, it
. kind of threw is off balance. We just weren't getting those hits we needed in
the first game." .    ,
But the Bulldogs came right back in the second game with Wende Ward
allowing only 4 hits and Dorothy Rivera bitting a home-run to pace-Fresno
to a 2-0 win. "Itjust reinforced our belief in the depth we have, coming back
with another strong pitcher in the second game, just proved it again,* said
Pickel.
Tomorrow the team travels to Stockton to face UOP in two conference
frames and returns home Saturday to meet USF.
