the battle for the championship
of the annual Southern Oregon
Northern California Golf tour
nament narrowed down to a title
flight list of eight shotmakers
the finest of 114 entrants of
which 38 hail from outside
Medford.
As the original championship
flight field of 32 was chopped
to the quarter-finals at the
Rogue Valley club, the lone re
sult resembling a form-reversal
was the 3 and 2 victory scored
by Don Leal of Eugene over
Sid Milligan, also of Eugene,
and former Pacific Coast Inter
collegiate champion. All the
other favorites came through
their first two 18-hole rounds
as expected.
While there were no startling
upsets, Defending Champion Ed
die Simmons of Medford escaped
by the skin of his teeth in a
sizzling first-round tiff with
Marvin Clark of Grants Pass.
Clark, white hot, fired a 72,
two over par, at the four-time
tournament winner, and Sim
mons was forced to the 20th
green before being able to over
come his Climate City opponent.
Clement Beaten
Luclan Clement of Medford,
who tied with Simmons for
medalist honors with a 69, was
eliminated in the first round
by William Zimmerly of Cor
vallis, 1 up on the 19th.
, The beaten 16 of the origi
nal championship flight of 32
-dropped down tc compose the
first flight- First round matches
were played in all of the six
flights.
Marshfleld's brilliant Dick Ha
nen, 19 years old and one of
the favorites, came through un
scathed In his first two matches.
He sent Jean Eberhart, S. O.
C. E. athletic coach, out of title
contention in the first round,
6 and 4, and hung up an 8 and 7
victory over Medford's Roy
Pruitt In the second round.
Bob Hammond, one of Med
ford's "big three," ousted Fred
Furchner of Grants Pass in the
first round, 6 and 5, and com
pleted his day's work with a
4 and 3 victory over William
Zimmerly of Cottage Grove.
Don Leal, after brushing past
Milligan in the opening round,
kept up his winning ways by
tipping over Medford's Keith
Kittle In the second round, 3
and 2.
Creager Advances
Jack Creager of Medford won
his first two matches to reach
the quarterfinals, eliminating
Jack Cooper of Portland, 2 and
1, and Ivan Harrington of Med
ford, 4 and 3.
Simmons, who, according to
the Calcutta pool bidding, is the
man best liked to win the tour
ney, had an easier time of it in
the second round, lie eliminat
ed Elmer Hanegan of Klamath
Falls. 3 and 2.
.Medford's Leland (Pete) Clark,
another red-hot favorite, scored
a pair of 3 and 2 victories. He
deleated Paul Walgren of Cor
vallis in the first round and
finished up with a like conquest
of Eugenes Ken Omlid.
Hubert B Bentley of Ashland.
1937 champion, also shoved into
the quarterfinals. In the first
round he measured A. E. Orr
of Medford, 4 and 2, and in
the second round he put out
Dr. Paul Sharp of Klamath
Falls, 6 and 3.
Hodges Loies
Ray Babb of Corvallis com
pleted the list of eight quarter
finalists with a 7 and 6 victory
over Millard Hodges of Grants
Pass, and a win over George
Parsons of Seattle, one tip on
the 18th. This latter match was
ding-dong throughout, and one
of the most exciting of the first
day's play.
Although all of this mornings,
quarter-final matches are ex ;
pected to be packed with drama. !
most of the interest Is centered
on the Simmons-Clark struggle j
starting at 9:10. The two Med
ford golfers were finalists last
year, their title match being '
probably the most thrilling ever
seen on the 1; rue YalVy ivur'P.
Semi-final matches in the
championship flight, and in tht
other flights, will be played
this afternoon. At 1:30, the
winners of the Hammond-Leal
and Hanen-Crcager tiff will be
gin. At 1:35, the winners of the
Simmons - Clark and Bentley
Babb quarter-final match will
start out.
Finals Monday
While the championship flight
ers are battling it out for finalist
positions for the 36 hole title
match Monday starting at 0:33
a. m., all other flights will be
narrowed to the finals today
by quarter-final and semi-final
matches- Finals in all flights
will be played Monday.
Although most tournament ob
servers were loathe to hazard
a guess as to which pair would
face off in the finals, several
of the braver long-range prog
nosticate marked down the
names of Dick Hanen and Eddie
Simmons. However, they tem
pered their guesses by the time
honored reservation, "But, you
know, anything can happen
Regardless of the ultimate
outcome of the meet, it was
already the consensus that it
was the finest in years and
years, with the strongest field
yet to compete.
Bogey Tied
In the blind bogey event
staged yesterday, Dr. E. Jasper
of Astoria and R. Norris tied for
first place with 107.'s, the bogey
number. They each received
six golf balls. Ed Simmons and
Lucian Clement tied for low net
and low gross with 69's, divid
Ing nine balls, and Ted Medford
of Klamath Falls won high net

RAIN BIGS END
10 PGA TOURNEY;
RESUME MONDAY
Hershey, Pa., Aug. 31. (IP)
After fooling around In a light
hearted sort of way all week,
the rain finally cut loose in
dead earnest today and washed
the finals of the Professional
Golfers association champion
ship into Monday.
The two semi-final matches
just had passed the 18 hole,
with Sam Snead three up on
Harold (Jug) McSpaden and By
ron Nelson leading Ralph Gul-
dahl one up, when the skies op-
ened wide and the water poured
out.
When, after an hour, the tor -
rent still was coming down and
the course was flooded beyond
hope, President Tom Walsh of
the P.G.A. sampled a green up
to his ankles and called off the
other half of the semi-finals.
The two matches will continue
on the second 18 tomorrow af
ternoon, with Snead and Nel
son retaining the margins they
won by brilliant golf today.
Each of them shot a 69, four
under par for a 7,000 yard
course, which was playing much
longer than that because of the
soggy fairways and mushy
greens that coated their balls
with mud.
Ten holes were won In the
course of the two match rounds,
and every one of them with a
birdie. Par golf for a hole never
won better than a half as the
four sharp-shooters tied Into
each other.
Snead virtually knocked the
supports from under McSpaden
with a 33 on the first nine of
their match. That put him three
up and a 38 on the way back
enabled him to hold his advan
tage. Guldalh and Nelson fought
more closely and grimly. Gul-
dahl only barely missed a putt
on the 18th that would have
hauled Nelson back to all
square.
McSpaden, alone of the four.
kicked mildly about calling off
today's play. He figured that the
heavy fairways cut some of the
distance off Snood's great
drives, so he wanted to get on
with it even if they had to wear
hip boots. It was the first post
ponement in 23 years of the
P.G.A. event.

planned strategy blow up in his
face today as the Cincinnati
Reds snatched a 5 to 4 victory

The big catcher instead took
a Sunday cut. The ball went
out on a line and Bill Werber,

ON NEW OFFERING
Chicago, Aug. 31. (IP) The
wheat market continued under
moderate pressure throughout
the session today in view of re
ports that a fairly liberal
amount of both wheat and rye
would be tendered on the first
delivery day. Around the close
prices firmed slightly from the
day's low levels.
Final wheat quotations was
showed again of about i cent
for September over Friday's
close.
The liquidation of the Sep
tember contract, deliverable af
ter the close today, and lessen
ing of tension over the Balkan
situation, were factors in the
easiness of the market. There
was also a further switching
from September to the deferred
positions at about a 214 cent
difference.
The commodity credit corpor
ation reported that as of Aug. 27
there were 91,000,000 bushels of
wheat under loan as compared
with around 82,500,000 as of
Aug. 23.

IS URGENT ACT TODAY!
AS CURE FOR ALL
Twin Falls, Idaho, Aug. SI.
(IP) Representative Halleck
(R-Ind.) said today that America
can effectively cope with the
danger of dictatorial incursions,
of both foreign and domestic
origin, only by replacing Presi
dent Roosevelt with Wendell L.
Willkie.
"Economic creeping paralys
is" inflicted by the new deal,
he said in a keynote address at
the Idaho Republican platform
convention here, has threatened
to rob the nation of its courage
and stamina and make it prey
for actual invasion from abroad.
The Roosevelt administra
tion, he continued, has done all
within its power in recent years
to foster the idea of "one-man
government" and election of the
president to a third term would
surely serve to place the seal
of finality on a totalitarian re
gime. Halleck, who nominated Will
kie for the presidency at the Re
publican national convention at
