HAGG SETS NEW
Malmoe, Sweden, July 18
(U.R Gunder Hagg, the Swedish
swifty, was less than a half
dozen steps today from the "im
possible" four minute mue.
If he could have picked Up
just six steps somewhere along
the line yesterday as he swept
to a new world record of 4:01.4
in beating Arne Andersson, he
could have run the distance in
a time science once Insisted was
impossible.
Andersson, who set the previ
ous mile mark of 4:01.0 last sum
mer, was a distinct favorite when
they met on the fast Malmoe
track. It was here that An
dersson ran his record race on
July 18, 1044, but he never had
a chance against Hagg yesterday.
Victory by the gaunt haber
dashery salesman was all the
more surprising because of his
mediocre showing last spring in
an indoor tour of the United
States when he failed to win a
race and ran all of them in poor
time. t

.Football fans may see one, and
maybo two, big time football
games In Medford this fall. Ne
gotiations have already been
started by "a local organization
which prefers fo remain anony
mous for the present, to bring a
big-name grid clash here during
one of the high school's open
dates. The contest would be held
on the high school field, if it
could be obtained, and would
have all the color of a coast con
ference game. '
Another sports treat for
Medford, still in th. embryo
stage. Is the Shaughnessy play
offs for th. Southern Oregon
championships. Two of the
four leams who at present ap
pear likely to be in the play

are agreeable to th. games
being held in the Fairgrounds
Parle here. Teams which will
likely end up high enough in
the standings to be in the
play-offs are Klamath Falls
Marinas, Klamath Falls Navy.
Medford and Central Point, in
that order.
Word comes via the grapevine
that there is. a lot of easy money
waiting to change hands at Cen
tral Point. It seems, according
to the rerjort. that Central Point
is so cositive they win neat
Medford in their Southern ure
