hot as the day was cold, tore
par to pieces today for a six-under-par
65 to lead the field
by two strokes at the halfway
mark in the $10,000 Texas open.
Wearing extra-heavy clothing
as protection against 38-dcgree
weather, Nelson had tne ugm
touch of old and fired a barrarre
of birdies to come in with a 36
hole total of 136.
His great round of golf was
over the Glen Garden course
where he caddied as a boy. It
was Nelson's answer to those
who wondered if his layoff from
tournament golf would adverse
ly affect his game.
Jimmy Dcmarct of Houston

in' his first tournament for a

today and wound up with a 67.

BELCASTRO GETS
It will be Pete Bclcastro and
Rough Rufus Jones in the top
main event of next Thursday
night's wrestling card, Promoter
Mack Lillard announced last
night. Following last Thursday's
match in which he lost to the
Detroit Negro on a foul, Bclcas
tro told Lillard he would never
wrestle in Medford again be
cause of the raw deal he figured
he received. However, Lillard
went to Weed, Calif., home of
Belcastro, yesterday and talked
Pete into the rematch. Belcastro
stipulated use of another referee,
disqualifying either Wally Moss
or Norval Stockstill. Lillard was
searching yesterday for a third
man.
Jones readily accepted the
bout, Lillard said, saying he
found Bclcastro easier to whip
than he had expected and added
he could lick the Weed Italian
"every day of the week."
Angelo Martinclli and Ben
Sherman, who put on a spectacu
lar match last week with Mar
tinclli gaining a one-fall win,
will again tangle in the opener,
at the request of fans.
Lillard said he was trying to
find a top-notch foe for the Grnv
Mask in the other half of the
double main event.

It'S fine, balmy day in July outside, of
course. Bur in the cold room at the John Deere
Tractor Works, the thermometer reading wti
ten below rero when this picture was taken.
Humidity can be resulated in this cold room,
too. And, if tests require a wind, anything from
gentle lephyr to a howling gale of 40 miles
per hour can be created.
Creating their own weather conditions en
ables John Deere englneets to test ideas and
conduct experiments that ore of vital im
portance to the John Deere owner. Here it is
possible to check and recheck, adjust and re
adjust until there is no doubt as to the per
formance of John Deere under cMieme
weather conditions..
Of first importance is the matter of lubrica
tion when the motor is cold. Will there be resid
ual lubrication enough to protect gears and
operating parts until the cold oil in the crank
case is heated enough to circulate freely?
Add this phase of John Deere research to all
the other tests and trials conducted by the
planning and experimental departments, and
the answer is simple nothing is left to chance
or theory. All the ingenuity and experience of
tiained enjineers have been brought to bear on
the main objective to turn out a tractor that
will operate successfully under all conditions
and give a maximum of economical, depend
aWe service to the farmer.
