0 Player Tabs Oakmont Course As 'Artificial' OAKMONT, Pa. (UPI)-Arnold Palmer, the favorite, and Gary Player, the leading foreign threat, disagreed today over the fairness of the rugged Oakmont Country Club course on which the U.S. Open golf championship will be decided starting Thursday. "It's the best course I've played in five years," said Palmer, feel ing fine after a practice round 69, two under par. "It's unfair and artificial," in sisted Player, the South African who fired a par 71. Player was especially critical of the sand traps of which there are 208 on the 6,894-yard par 35 3671 layout and of the sloping fairways. Schaerer Sets Record; Ray First In Shot Put ' David Schaerer of Joseph Lane Junior High and Steve Ray of Oak land recorded victories in their re spectivi specialties at the recent Junior Olympics new in fori-land. Schaerer set a new record in the 14-15 age group 220-yard dash. Schaerer was clocked at :23.6 for the win. The old state record was :23.7. Ray took the shot put honors for boys 14-15. The Oakland lad tossed the eight pound weight 52 feet, re ports Mrs. Edith Dunn, Oakland correspondent. Austin Bryant, another Roseburg entrant, finished third in the boys 14-15 440-yard race. Schaerer and Ray joined with Myrtle Creek's Ed Cadman to com plete the list of Douglas County winners, Cadman won the boys 16 17 mile in 4:32.2. Major League Stars By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Pitching Dave Wickersham, Athletics, won his fourth in five games as a starter after begin ning season as relief pitcher, limiting Chicago White Sox to three hits for 2-1 victory. Batting Hank Aaron, Braves, went 3-for-3 with 11th homer and two singles, pacing 17-hit attack League leading Los Angeles Dodgers 15-2. He singled out the first, 10th, 11th and 12th holes as "very un fair." "You can drive the ball in the middle of the fairway on the 12th and not have a shot," the 1960 Masters winner complained. "You can be on the down slope there and the green slopes so badly away from you it's very hard to stop the Dan. Palmer agreed that the first. 10th and 12th holes are tough ones, "but if the greens hold, I don't see where anyone has cause for complaint. Says Greens Finest "These are the finest greens I've played on in years," Palmer continued. "They are true. Of course, if the greens don't hold, it's another story. B'Jt I think this is one of the greatest courses in the world, as good as they come. The only thine Palmer and Player agreed on was "it's the same for all of us." Defending champion Gene Lit tler, who tested the course for the first time Tuesday, found it did not play as long as he expect ed it would. "This is a course where driving is the biggest factor," Littler said. "You've got to keep the ball on the fairway. If you keep spraying into the rough, you can forget it." Littler played badly, dui ne saia he expected a letdown after his $25,000 first place victory in the Thunderbird Open. He said ne had no complaints over the greens or the traps. Player, while prefacing his cri ticism with an assertion that he was "grateful" to be playing in the Open, criticized the two-inch furrows which are raked into the traps. Ski Course Readied PORTLAND (AP) Dual slalom courses are being set up in the Timberline Lodge area of Mt. Hood for Sunday's Gold Rose Ski tournament, one of the final events of the Portland Rose Festival. The two courses are being set up because of the large number of entries.

(Photo by Gilman) Whistlers Bend Impoundment Starts Second Year Of Production In June DOUGLAS COUNTY PIONEER DAYS JUNE 16 & 17 Under Bright New Lights! SATURDAY EVENING 8 P.M. lil Briahr Floodlights An Bing Installed At The Rodeo Arena. Don't You Miss This Evening of Thrills! Whistlers Bend impoundment will begin its second year's produc tion of summer steelhead with the scheduled planting of around 100, 000 fry in early June, according to Phil Schneider, state game director. Upon completion of a year s erowth these youngsters will be re leased from the impoundment and allowed to make their seaward jour ney down the Umpqua. An addi tional two years growtn in ine sail chuck should see many of these steelhead returning to the Umpqua headwaters as tackle-busting adults. Whistlers Bend impoundment was constructed by the game com mission in 1960 specifically for the experimental rearing of salmon and steelhead under natural pond rearing conditions, Schneider said Personnel of the same commis sinn's research division will study the youngsters closely during the Jaycee Tennis Clinic Set For June 18-28 The Junior Chamber of Com merce sponsored tennis clinic for novices and beginners will be held June 18-28 at the new Jaycee courts adjacent to the YMCA Build ing in Stewart Park. The purposes of the tennis clinic will be to teach the fundamentals of the game, and to stimulate ten nis activity in the Roseburg area. All persons interested are invited to attend the clinic. Registration blanks for the clinic can be picked up starting Thurs da ayt J. C. Sporting Goods, Ro. gan Oil Company or the YMCA. A registration fee of 50 cents will be charged. , Two classes will be held each day of the clinic. The morning ses sion will begin at 9:30, while the evening action will start at 8. coming year to learn as much as possible about this method of pro ducing migratory fish. bchneider advised that produc tion last year, the first year in oper ation, was considered ,'oor with a release from the impoundment of only 7,ouu yearling steelhead from a plant of around 60,000 fry. Con siderable losses were incurred last summer, Schneider said, believed to be from several weeks of ex cessively hot weather plus some avian predation. Tho youngsters that survived, however, have reach exceptional growth and were healthy and vigorous. According to Schneider, the game commission has one addi tional impoundment available for the experimental pond rearing of anadromous fish, the Medco pond in the upper Rogue River drainage. This impoundment was drawn down and chemically treated this last winter to remove a heavy population of small bullheads in or der to eliminate all competition with young salmon and steelhead. Medco pond will be in production this summer, Schneider said. In addition, construction of the Lint slough experimental rearing impoundment located on the Alsca River near Waldport will soon be under way. This impoundment, ac cording to Schneider, will test the feasibility of rearing young salm on and steelhead under various concentrations of fresh and salt water. Several other possible lm poundment sites are under study by the commission.

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu- gene Oregon's power in the mid dle distances and dcplh in the jave lin could prove to be key weapons when the Webfoots go in search of the NCAA track and field cham pionship Friday and Saturday at Hayward Field. Dyrol Burleson, two-time NCAA mile king and holder of the Amer ican citizen's record at that dis tance, heads up the Webfood mid dle distance contingent. Coach Bill Bowerman could dou ble Burelson back in the 880, where he has a best effort of 1:48.2, but it seems more likely the Webfoot star will compete in the steeple-1 chase if he doubles. Burleson's best effort this spring in the mile is 3:57.9 and he's one of two collegiate performers under the four-minute barrier this sea son. The other is Oregon team mate Keith Forman, third place finisher at Philadelphia a year ago, who has run a nifty 3:58.3. The two Webfoots will be facing a solid field, which includes Bill! Dotson of Kansas (4:03.7), run-1 nerup to Burelson last year, and MU Dahl of UCLA (4:02.3), who grabbed a fourth place finish in 1961. Other top-rated competitors are John Reilly of Georgetown (4:01.9), Bill Cornell of Southern Illinois (4:02.7), Ben Tucker of San Jose State (4:03.6), and Tom O'Hara of Loyola of Chicago (4:01.6). Tucker and Reilly might be absent from the mile if they decide to try the 880, where both again figure prom inently. Tucker, in fact, rates as the na tion's best half-milcr off his 1:47.6 performance last Saturday. This race could prove to be one ot the most closely contested events on the program. Tucker will get plenty of com petition from Southern Illinois' Jim Dupree, who has fled to a 1:48.8 clocking. Then there's Oregon's po tent one-two punch of Sig Ohlc- mann (1:49.3), runnerup for the title a year ago, and sophomore Archie San Romani (1:49.5). Not to be overlooked are Michi gan's Ergas Leps (1:49.4), wHo placed third at Philadelphia. James Brown of NYU (1:49.61 and USC's tandem of Kevin llogan (1:49.6) and Warren Farlow (1:49.8). Trojan hopes of repeating as team champion would soar if these two performers could come through with point- producing efforts. In the javelin, Jan Sikorsky of of the rsl of the field with a throw of 261 feet to his credit, but the Webfoots hope to offset his poten tial first place effort with excep tional depth. Oregon has three of the top-rated spearmen in the meet in sopho mores Ron Gomes (244-1) and Les Tipton (238-4Msl and junior John Burns (236 11). Jerry Dyes, Abilene Christian's versatile performer, has tossed the spear 218 feet 6W inches and this could be one of three events where Southern California is far ahead I he earns points. Steve and Paul Johnson, broth ers from Denver, Colo., are ranked one and two in the trampoline event on the Michigan State gym nastics team.
