NAME ADDRESS CITY STATE Three U.S. Girls First Sn Diving HELSINKI Wl A trio of curvn cious California girls and an 18-year-old Hawaiian miss played the leading roles in the Olympic games Friday. Mrs. Patricia McCormick of Long Beach, Calif., winner of the spring board diving title two days ago; Paula Jean Myers, a 17-year-o!d from Covina, Calif., and Mrs. Juno Stover Irwin of Los Angeles, placed 1-2-3 after four qualifying riivc.i in the women's platform diving competition. Evelyn Kawamoto of Honolulu won her s?mi-final heat in the women's 400 meter freestyle swim to lead two of the three Americans into the finals. Except for these two women's events, things were rather quiet as the Olympic stage was set for Saturday's big windup program. And, for once, there weren't any broken records. Miss Kawamoto, who broke the Olympic women's 400 meter swim record in her trial heat Thursday, took the semi-final in the ordinary time of 5:21.3, Beating Hungary's Eva Novak. Valeria Gyenge of Hungary took the other semi-final in 5:16.9, three tenths of a second slower than Miss Kawamoto's new record time Thursday but nearly a full second faster than the 1948 Olympic record set by Ann Curtis. Carolyn Green of Fort Lauder dale, Fla., placed second behind Miss Gyenge in 5:18.3 to qualify for the final. The eight fastest times qualified. Deliana Meulenkamp of Mill Val ley, Calif., who was made a U.S. citizen by a special act of Congress just in time to compete in the Olympics, was left on the starting block when the gun went off. She came in sixth. In the platform diving competi tion, Mrs. McCormick scored 51.25 points for the four dives, putting her far ahead of Miss Myers, with 44.22 and Mrs. Irwin with 43.60 Two Russian girls were among the first eight. The early doings had no effect on the unofficial but torrid duel be tween Russia and the United States for the top place in over-all point scoring a matter not recognized by Olympic officials. It was Russia by 523 V4 to 465 Friday morning with no events that count for medals and points scheduled until afternoon. Russia's water polo team beat Spain, 4-3, in a losers-half final round game. The U.S. has qualified for the four-team final bracket. Bulgaria earned the hollow honor of finishing seventh in the basket- ball competition by beating France 58 44. Vincent Farrell, the referee who was injured in the riot which fol lowed the .France-Uruguay game, was one of the officials. Russia qualified fix men for the boxing semi-finals and the United States kept five men in the running. Since there won't be any fights for third place the points will be split 10 for the winner of ths final, five for the loser of the final and 3 Vi for each of the beaten semi finalists. On this basis Russia already has a minimum of 21 points and the U.S. has 17 Va. . Going on the form shown so far, the United States has a good chance of crowning champions in the three heaviest divisions Middleweight Floyd Patterson of Brooklyn, Light Heavyweight Norvel Lee of Wash ington and Heavyweight Eddie Sanders of Los Angeles.. The United States and Russia advanced to the basketball finals Thursday, and the U.S. should whip the Russians in their second meet ing. The Americans won the first time in the round robin competition, 86 to 58. The final will be played Sat urday. War's Millionth Draftee Hails From Michigan DETROIT W A typical 23-year-old neither delighted nor grieved and leaving a sweetheart behind Thursday became the millionth draftee since the begin ning of the Korean war. He is Arthur Weinfeld, and for a year he has been expecting this day induction day. With a resigned, "I might as well get it over with," Weinfeld volunteered for induction after his irarination from Wiyn University in 1951. Detroit Draft Board took up its option Thursday. No. 1,000,000 is the son of Joseph Weinfeld, a tool inspector on war production work at the Hudson Motor Car Co. Incidentally, Art found he had a second distinction. He is the 52,000th Michander inducted since Korean hostilities began. Discovery Of Suicide r'ollows rhone Call REDWOOD CITY, Calif. HI Mrs. Martha A. Van Biesem, 54, sounded despondent when her brother, David Schatz, telephoned her from Medford, Ore., Wednes day. Schatz decided to hurry to her side. When he arrived late Thursday he found his widowed, sister dead in bed. Police said burns on her lips indicated suicide by cyanide posoning. She left two sealed notes, one to her pastor and one to the San Mateo County treasurer. I Of IV.. , JACK KiSER . . Challenges Prince Brother Team To Face Prince Two comers on the Roseburg wrestling horizon are Billv Samf ow of Toledo and Bill Fletcher of Boise. Both are young, fast and strong, and both are well on their respec tive ways to becoming consistent main eventcrs. The two win-hun-ry youngsters tangle Saturday night at 8:45 in the hour-long semi final preceding the hammer-and-tong Australian tag team main event. Sandow is fresh from a victory over Danny O'Rourke in a prelim inary two weeks ago. He injured his knee in that one, but he's back in shape now. Fletcher last week dumped Dale Kiser. Both have been consistent winners in the local preliminary matches thus far. This heralded scientific match just sets the stage, however, for the big one. Jack Kiser was dis qualified last week in a main event with the masked Black Prince when his little brother Dale ran into the ring. To make amends, Dale teamed with Jack and hurled a challenge at the Prince and any opponent he want ed to choose for an Australian tag team tussle. The result is a promising blood and thunder set-to between the brother team and the duo of the Prince and Tartan Zimba of Van couver, B. C. Jack Kiser, the current Pacific Coast Light Heavyweight cham pion, claims he and Dale are at their best when wrestling as a team. YES! We're Still Here, Just Rebuilding!

' Post Office Box 969 Phone 3-3012 MEDFORD, OREGON Pheasant Farm Of State Sold Sale of the Corvallis game farm In four parcels by the game conv mission .will mark the end of pheasant production at one of the oldest game farms In the United States. The commission's entire western Oregon pheasant rearing program has been transferred to its 20O0 acre Wilson wildlife management area on the Camp Adair site where 20,000 pheasants are being raised for release this year. Pheasant rearing at the Corval lis game farm started as a private enterprise in 1902 when the late Gene Simpson family hatched 11 pheasants from eggs found in a hay field. Within a few years the Simpson farm was supplyir? pheasants for introduction throughout the country. When the game commission en tered the game bird rearing field in lau uie Simpson farm was leased and Gene Simpson was hir ed as supervisor for three years. In addition to ring-necked pheas ants, many other exotic game birds such as Reeves, golden, and silver pheasants were released, but none thrived like the ring necked pheasants. The ring-necked pheasant has also been known as the China or Denny pheasant because it was introduced from China in 1882 by Judge Owen Denny. After the commission purchased his farm in 1920, Gene Simpson, acting as Corvallis game farm su aperintendent, continued raising thousands of birds for Oregon sportsmen until his death in 1939. Two tracts of the game farm were sold Uiis month and one 80 acre and another 8 acre tract remain to be sold. frldoy, Aug. 1, 1952 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. 7 'Attractive Nuisance' Charged In Damage Suit LONG BEACH, Calif.
