Thurtday. April 13. 19S8
Donovan, Harper
Rematch Picked
Topnotch Affair
The match which could easily
steal the show when the South
ern Oregon Boxing club presents
its amateur ring program at the
armory on April 19 is the Don
Harper-Donovan Wolfe rematch
for the southern Oregon light-
heavyweight championship.
Until they met about a month
and a half igo Harper was un
beaten and no opponent had
been able to go the distance with
him. Wolfe, who was expected to
get his brains scrambled by the
Gold Hill clouter, proceeded to
leave no doubt as to whom was
the master as he decisively out
pointed Harper.
Colvin Alio Loses
Still there was some doubt as
to Wolfe's ability until he
whipped Ralph Colvin of Port
land here March 22. On the same
show, Harper was being badly
outclassed by Bull Halsey.
Both light-heavies have been
taking their rematch seriously.
Wolfe has purchased a light and
heavy bag and is working out
every day while Harper has
joined the Gold Hill high school
track team in an effort to get his
legs in condition and comes to
Medford each day to work out
in the armory practice ring.
Eight other matches will com
plete the card.
Ashland Golf
Course Taken
Ashland, Ore., Apr. 13 (U.R)
City officials said today two Los
Angeles golfers returned a
signed lease for management of
the city's idle golf course.
Merle M. Russell and Elbert
C. Williams plan to put the golf
course into use this summer for
the first time since it closed up
when world War II broke out.
They intend to invest S5000
during the first two years of
operation. Cost of the lease to
the men is $1 a year for the 10-
year period.

Slate Area
Class B district 2 which in
cludes Josephine and Jackson
counties will have four or five
regional baseball tournaments
to help designate the district
champion and thereby the entry
the state class B baseball
tournament.
Recently A. B. Mekvold.
Rogue River superintendent of
schools, met with two other
members of the district baseball
committee and they decided to
hold regional playoffs.
The Jackson-Josephine region
would include at least seven high
schools, all in Jackson county
Kogue River, Talent, Phoenix,
Prospect, St. Mary's (Medford),
Butte Falls and Jacksonville.
Gold Hill does not have baseball
this year.
Whether Josephine county has
a playoff Is questionable as Cave
Junction (Kerby) now is an A
school and the only other town
that might have a B scltool is
Wolf Creek in the northern end
of the county.

Eugene. Anr. 12 A record

teenth Annual Hayward relays
ai Hayward field April 21 and
22, Chairman Ray Hendrickson
said today.
Hendrickson pointed out that
several changes had been made
in the operation of the prep

that the new steps would in
crease the attractiveness of the
meet to both contestants and
spectators.

At Corvallis
Derald Woolen probably will
do the hurling chores for Med
ford high s baseball team Friday
and Terry Maddox on Saturday
when the Black Tornado dia
mond crew takes its first and
perhaps only road trip of the
season to Corvallis.
The boys coached by Alex Mc
Donald play the Oregon State

day at 3 p.m. and then on Satur
day compete against Corvallis
high about 10 a.m.
Wooten already has a no-hit
no-run game to his credit against
Eagle Point while Maddox has
done little more than hurl a bit
during practice.
The local squad will leave
early tomorrow morning for the
Willamette valley city and the
two games.
Rogues Lose
Practice Tilt
San Luis Obispo, Cal., Apr. 13
(U.R) Don Carman pitched Cali-
torma r'oiytechnic to a o-l vic
tory yesterday over the Medford
Rogues of the Far West league
as his teammates backed him up
with errorless fielding.
However, Mcdford's three er
rors greatly contributed to its
loss, although hitting was about
equal between the two squads.
Medford got six hits to Cal
Poly's seven.
The California school took a
first inning. 2-0 lead and built it
up to 5-0 in the fourth inning.
Medford got its sole tally in the
seventh, but Cal Poly nullified
it with another run in the eighth
inning.
The llnescore:
Medford 000-000-100 1 6 3

now the guiding organization be
hind the Hayward relays. The
local group assumed the opera
tion of the affair from the Uni
versity of Oregon athletic de
partment after the meet last
year.
The malor change in the 1950
Hayward relays switches the
Class B and C divisions from Sat
urday to Friday. The larger
schools will now run on Satur
day and this season will share
the spotlight with the Oregon-
Washington state dual tracK
meet.
The events for the three divis
ions will be substantially the
same as in the past few years.
The Class A schools will have
a 12-event program, the B divi
sion 10 and the Class C teams
will participate in six track and
field events.
The 200 schools eligible for
the spring track classic will have
until April 17 to file tneir entry
blanks with Hendrickson.
Hendrickson also stated that
all fans attending the Class A di
vision finals on Saturday will be
free to stav for the Duck-cougar
dual meet without further cost.
The prep field event men will
open competition at 11 a.m. and
the collegiate meet will get un
der way about 3 p.m.
Oregon State Trackmen
At Seattle Saturday
corvallis. Apr. 13 How Ore
gon State's track and field team
stacks up in 1950 nortnern divi
sion dual meet competition
should be learned when Grant

to Seattle Saturday against
Washington.
Last year the Beavers upset
the Huskies, 66-65, in a thriller
at Corvallis.
Oreeon State boasts some top
Individual Derformers but lacks
depth which was clearly brought
out at Eugene last oaturaay
when Oregon defeated the
Orange 10-2 in the annual relays.

Home Friday
Two baseball games In the
Jackson-Douglas-Josephine coun
ties conference are scheduled
Friday with Cave Junction play
ing Central Point at the Central
Point field at 3 p.m. and Eagle
Point's diamond crew traveling
to Myrtle Creek.
It will be the first JDJ game
of the 1950 season for the Point
ers while the Eagles have de
feated Sutherlin in their only
conference tilt. Eagle Point how
ever has defeated Ashland and
lost to Medford while the Point
ers have dropped game to
Grants Pass.
Coach Clarence Melbye of
CP. will be seeing his charges
play their second game of the
week which is hard on any
pitching corps let alone one that
hasn't been tried much as yet,
as is the case with the Pointers.
Eagle Point is also playing its
second game of the week and
the pitching situation there is
little better than at Central
Point, says Coach "Shy" Cal
laghan. Grace DeMoss Playing
