Use Mall Tribune want ads. The General Petroleum service sta tion staff at Main and Ivy streets Is In a quandary. They prefer to be known as a station of athletes. Fur thering the cause 1 the fact that the manager, Sharkey Sherrltt, Is an ex-baseball player, a Softball player, ana a -wizard on the handball court. Wliton White of the station force Is tho same Wilton White who used to hold down a very capable tackle posl Un on Medford high school football teams as well-as being a star at bas ketball and baseball, and later a Unt verstty of Idaho athlete. The newest recruit to the staff Is big Bill Morgan, who needs no Intro, dvctlon. For four years the out standing tackle ever to play for the Medford high school football squad. as well as winning an all-state to ketball berth, and a catcher on the high school nine, he later went to Oregon and wai a star freshman tackle, then var sity tackle for three years, as well as playing basketball for the strong DeNeff quint In Eugene. Since leav Ing college he has played professional fottball for the New York Giants, taking all-American pro ranking f ye the past two years. He Is easily rec ognized as the king of' all Oregon graduates to the pro football ranks. What puts the staff In a quandary Is the fact that they can't unearth any athletic background for the fourth ' member of the staff. Bill Sllnger. BUI won't admit having w done anything more athletic than to run up a column of figures, and his determination to remain off the broken bone list has, as we said, left the rest of the lads In a quan dary. . We gave the boys a good Idea yesterday, whereupon their faces lit up hopefully. Since the sug , gestlon treats Mr. Sllnger a bit roughly for a non-athlete, they may have to uncover another way out of their enigma. This Is the suggestion: " All they have to do 1? to change the "1" In BUI to "u,M and they have It, Any man nam ed Bull-Sllnger automatically Is classed as an ten let e by those who will have occasion to read about him. All we hope Is that after hearing this, Sllnger doesn't sud denly turn athlete, with a club, after all these years. TIGER ATHLETES IN TRACK TRIALS T A track meet la being held at the Senior high school athletic field this afternoon, with tuna trials scheduled in eight different events. Track prac tice has been under way for the p-ist two weeks, and the runners are con sidered In good enough condition for the time eventa today, according to BUI Bowerman, coach. The cinder track around the new football field la not yet completed and rolled, so a temporary track of 150 yards has been laid down In the field adjoining. All of the eventa are being shortened. - The 100 yaad dash has been short ened to 75, with the S00 yard dash cut to 150. Seventy-five yard low hurdles are being run Instead of the usual 100 yard events, and the. 100 yard run has been cut to 300. In stead of the 880 race, a 500 yard one wm take lta place, and- 1000 yards will be run Instead of the mile, Bow erman said. The only field event today la the shot-put.
