THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
An outdoor adventure
Last weekend, when most of you
were probably slaving away at a mas-
I slve stack of homework, sipping a few
I brews in the process, I, and six other
'thrillseekers' took part on a rafting
I expedition on the MokeJumne River,
| which is located In the foothills north-
-ast of Stockton.     *
The seven of us left about 10 o'clock
In the morning and arrived a little be-
I fore 11 at the parking lot near the bot-
| torn of the run where we had to
leave one of the cars.
Then we all piled Into my dad's
I old,  red  International   pickup  and
I headed up the hill in the bright sun-
| shine.
At the top of the run is another par -
I king lot where people make their final
I preparations — pumping up rafts and
I Inner tubes, packing lunches end
I making sure the right person is In
I charge of the beer — before heading
I out into the river.
I V.

I the brand new raft two friends had
I Just bought. It was my secret plan to
I '((reload" all the way (fawn, letting
I my companions worry about the more
I important stuff - like steering.
I Two other friends were in another
I raft, and the other two brought up the
1 rear in their own inner tubes.
Everything was going well for the
Hrst hour or so and, except for an
I occassional tangle with the rocks at
I the bottom of the river, I was having a
I fantastic time.
t about coming  back
I promise of a party that night eventu-
I alfy lured me back here to Fresno.
Now the Mokelumne is by no
| means a wild river, the kind where
v moment is spent trying to cont-
the raft In the turbulent waters.
I Rather, it is more family-oriented,
I where people can come out to have a
I good time and forget the rest of the
that we almost lost my companion's
girlfriend, Diane.
I was at the front of the raft steer¬
ing, Chuck was kicking back behind
me, and Diane was in the tube, float¬
ing down after us, the tube still att¬
ached to the raft.
We came around a right-hand turn,
where somehow I underestimated the
current, and were pushed towards a
swifter part of the river.
All of a sudden, the rope Joining the
tube to the raft got caught around a
tree and Diane was on one side and
Chuck and I were on the other.
The current was strong enough to
hamper us in our attempts to rescue
the shaken Diane, who thought for
sure Chuck and I were Just going to
cut the rope and let her float on down
byhersetf.
Just as she had about given up
hope, Chuck and I tugged on the rope
one last time and pulled her back onto
our side of the tree.
After that, there were no major
problems and even the first one was
not as big a deal as Diane made of It.
I still think we should have cut the
rope. Funny thing is, so did Chuck.
We all enjoyed the first run so
much that we decided to do it again,
only this time we would race - with
the loser supposedly buying the 're¬
freshments;'
Well, Chock, Diane and I killed
'em — even though I ran aground on
a submerged log along the way. Leo
and his cohorts were ahead for a little
while, but folded against the intense
pressure we put on them.
The group consensus going home
was that our rafting excursion was
great, and plans were made to return
again in the near future. However,
the water gets colder and colder by
the day, so we probably wont return
to our watery playground until some-
Gauchos hand'Dogs
second polo defeat
By Jeff Dominjues
In water polo, any time the score is
close, it will be a physical game
That Is exactly what happened
Wednesday night at Oovls West High
School when the Bulldogs played host
to a powerful UC Santa Barbara team
The Cauchos cooled off a hot CSUF
team, 15-10.
'It was a real physical game,* head
coach Don Latter said. "We had a
couple of fights.*
In one Instance, Bulldog Matt
Weinheimer was 'guarding a Santa
Barbara man, and the action got a lit¬
tle Intense and the two started swing¬
ing.
But Laster did not make much of
the scuffles, which were not Indicative
of the whole game. He was more con¬
cerned with his team's defense, which
was not as strong as he might have
__ *lf we
could have eliminated the mistakes,
we could have been right in it all
the way."
As It turned out, the Bulldogs were
playing with UCSB only in the second
half. Santa Barbara, the defending
NCAA champions, outscored
CSUF 10-5 in the first half. They were
scored even after Intermission.
Part of Fresno's problems in the
game was the inability to score consis¬
tently. The Bulldogs took 26 shots st
the UCSB goal, four of those coming
in one-on-one situations with the
Gaucho goalie.
'We would bring the ball down,

Bulldogs let 15-10 deoWon to Qaudne Wedneeday evenl-ig at aovfc West Pool
and take a shot from a bad angle, in¬
stead of working the ball around .to
get the good shot,'Laster said.
The strong Santa Barbara defense
was a factor in eliminating CSUF's
counter attack. It was not that the
Bulldogs main offensive tool did not
work, Laster said. They Just met a sti¬
ver defense than in previous games. .
Randy Biglione lead the CSUF
scoring with three goals. Weinheimer
and sophomore Ron Meyer-hagen
each had two, while Ronald Hermsen,
Dave Kelly, and Craig Zaharris added
one goal apiece. Goalie Ted Young
had four saves for Fresno in the cage.
Santa Barbara played as well as
was expected, according to Laster,
playing 'on an equal bases' to their
national championship season of a
year ago. The Gauchos lost several
players to graduation last year, and Is
playing with a relatively young team
this season. Having developed a str¬
ong reputation, they were able to re¬
cruit many new players last year.
They were able to get three or four
kids (freshmen) I was trying to get,*
Laster said.
CSUF will conclude what is prob¬
ably the toughest portion of the sche¬
dule tommorrow afternoon at Oovls
West, when UC Irvine comes in. Las¬
ter sees this contest as a tougher
one than the UCSB game.
They (Irvine) are a big, stong, fast
team. They pass well, and handled
the ball well,' Laster said. 'If we can
play with them, we'll give them a
good game.'
Irvine has not lost this year, playing
to a tie once, so they can put points on
the board. Defense will be the key for
the Bulldogs.
•Hopefully, we can play a little bet¬
ter defense this time. We can give
them a good game,' Laster said.
The game tomorrow will get under-

After three losses on the road,
coach Jim Sweeney will bring his

mark into the contest. Earlier this
year, Mustang coach Joe Harper
called his I960 squad 'his best ever.
We should have a super team. *
In the 37 year history of the series
between the two teams, Fresno holds
a commanding 25-10-2 margin, but
Cal Poly has won five of the last seven
meetings, IncWding last year's 29-0
win in San Luis Obispo.
One of Fresno's biggest problems
thus far has been an erratic offense.
At times, the offense has moved well,
but on other occasions, it has sput¬
tered.
In last week's game, the Bulldogs
insulted a new offensive alignment,

Scambray lined up behind quarter¬
back Sergio Toscano and in between
