Chances In Olympics By DON DOANE BAD GASTEIN, Austria - D---, Anri R.ws. In- iws -ss vawTTia The United States' hopes of win ning a gold medal In the women s skiing competition at the winter Olympics in Oslo next month have been boosted by another top-flight periormance by Mrs. Andrea mead Lawrence. The 19-year old Rutland, Vt. skier won the women's slalom race at the International Ski Festival here Sunday for the best showing made over the week-end by U.S. men and women skiers and Uncle Sam's speed skaters. Mrs. Lawrence's victory, achiev ed with a total time of 1:4.1.3 for two runs down a tricky course winding through 38 gates, gave her a record of three firsts, one second and a third in five races against virtually the same field she'll face at Oslo next month. And to add to the American's Olympic hopes, Jannette Burr of Seattle finished fifth yesterday. Miss Burr, 24, who shaded Mrs. Lawrence for first olace in the combined Swiss championships last week, now has a record of one second, two thirds and two fifths in five races. Since both American women are equally adept at the slalom and downhill races, which count in the Olympic combined standings, the U.S. has a good chance of winning their second gold medal, ine iirst was won in 1948 by Gretchen Fras er, ot Vancouver, Wash., the team's coacn. California Nips UCLA, Enjoys Leading Spot LOS ANGELES uD Southern Division -Pacific Coast Conference basketball teams take time out for mid-term exams this week, and the amasing California Bears will have until Feb. 15, at least, to en joy their position atop the stand ings. Conference ' hostilities resume then, with the teams opening the second half of their campaign, for tified with a menu of intersectional contests starting Jan. 30. California took the lead over the weekend by twice upsetting UCLA, 61-59 and 54-51, behind alert work off the backboards and heads up play by the second string. Cal now has won 4 ana lost z in league competition. UCLA dropped into a second place tie with the peppery Tro jans of Southern California, who knocked off Stanford twice,- 63-58 and 75-64. Don Rehfeldt of the Baltimore Bullets in the NBA set 19 indi vidual scoring records at the Uni versity of Wisconsin. Duke university's defensive line held the Wake Forest gviddcrs to a minus three yards rushing in the second half of their recent game. Three Mentors Attend Meeting Three Roseburg High School at letic mentors attended the South ern Oregon Conference for A-l and A-2 schools at Grants Pass Satur day, , Although results generally affect Coaches Hal Zurcher and Frank Purdy and Athletic Director Cece Sherwood laid preliminary ground work for spring sports activities with the southern schools. On the definite list, a track meet was lined up for the Roseburg home oval with Grants Pass High and several baseball games were set. Tentativ ely, games were slated with Med ford and Klamath Falls. Another tentative possibility is the division of the Southern Ore gon wrestling district into two sub districts. One would include Rose burg, Medford and Grants Pass. The other would take in Klamath Falls, Bend, Redmond, Prineville and Burns. If this division is adopt ed, two men in each weight classification will represent the dis trict at the state meet from each sub-district-. Sherman Howard of the New York grid Yanks earned football Picked For Play ,. In Shrine Game Two Douglas county high school football players have been named to the State team in the annual High School Shrine game at Port land in early September, Reedsport's lumbering Larry Rose was selected for the traveling squad as a backfield man, and Alan Brown, Drain's stellar quart erback was chosen as an alternate to replace unavailable backs, who were named to the varsity squad. The announcement of selections was released in the Portland Ore gonian and Journal Sunday. The selections were made on recom mendations of the Oregon coaches, whose chargea will be mentored by Grants Pass Coach Mel Ingram in the anual battle with the Fort land all - starts. Pickd -On Record Reedsport's Larry Rose gained a position on the varsitv Stnt. squad for his herculean work in Brave uniform in 1951. As a 190 pound senior. Rose packed ud lass. yards in seven games to lead hie squad to second place in the rug ged District 2-A-2 Coast League. He rambled for 90 points. Brown's selection is particularly noteworthy because he represents a "B" school. His intelligent quar terbacking and spot passing were major factors in bringing Drain the district "B" championship and a berth in the state playoffs. Few "B" school players are represented on the Shrine club squads and this probably explains his placement on the alternate rather than the var sity squad. High School Wrestlers Go Into Action Tuesday High School Wrestling gauged for the spectator is the keynote of the next inter-school card at Roseburg High School. Coach Walt Johnson will test his theory that prep wrestling can draw a crowd by staging the Tuesday matches between Grants Pass and the Indians at night in the Roseburg gym. For a 50-cent fee, a wrestling fan can take approximately three hours of ac tion which will include between 20 and 22 matches. Wrestling staffs at 7:30 p.m. against the squad that was de feated by state champion Klamath Falls by only five points. In one of Roseburg's two matches with the Pelicans this weekend, the In dians were only edged by two points. GIVES UP GOLF BAGUIO, P. T. Wl Francisco Jalon gave up golf after 30 years ot ugniing par.
