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.

Ray First In Shot Put '

the eight pound weight 52 feet, re
ports Mrs. Edith Dunn, Oakland
correspondent.

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.

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

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

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.
