too good to match with old men
like that Belcastro guy.'
"I'm not going around making
: a lot of statements I can't back
up," Belcastro said. "Just put me
in with v'ic Atlas that's all I
ask."

By Dick Jewett
Medford high trackmen this
year will hold the shiny new
trophy donated by the Medford
Kiwanis club for the Rogue re
lays. The Black Tornado fought off
the challenge of Klamath Kalis,
last year's champions yesterday,
to win the 1950 running of the
annual meet. Medford tallied 83
points to 78 for Klamath, 40'i
for Grants Pass and 18Vi for
Ashland.
During the early events the
(lead swayed between the two
top aggregations. On the sev
enth event, the broad jump re
lay, however, Medford went In
front permanently 52 to 51, then
surged to 70 to 61. Klamath
shrank the Tornado margin to
73 to 71 on the next to last event
but the host crew rambled to
the tape first in the mile relay,
the final contest to gain the
triumph.
Medford Wins Sevan
Medford won seven events,
was second in three and third
in two.
There were two or three par
ticular thrillers during the af
ternoon. In the opening 440-yard
relay, Medford Anchor Man
Jack Morris beat Klamath's
Gene Carlson to the tape by a
yard and a half. Medford's time
was 44.7 seconds compared to
the Hayward relay best of 44.5.
In the two-mile gallop DeFur,
Grants Pass, running anchor,
gave out with a high-powered
stretch drive that ate up perhaps
20 vards. He nipped Jim Thorn
ton, Klamath Falls, at the fin
ish for a caveman Decision.
Grants Pass' time was a good
eight minutes, 25 seconds.
DeFur Tired Out
DeFur had spent himself and
running the final mile of the
distance medley could not close
Klamath's huge lead or match
paces with Hobbs of Medford
and the Ashland entry. Hobbs
came out best in a duel with the
Ashlander to take second for
Medford.
In the shuttle hurdles, the
Medford trio of Frank Morris,
Hal Faulkner and Don Spinas
missed by one-tenth second ty
ing the Hayward relays mark
of 38 seconds even.
D. C Mills hurled the javelin
178 feet for Medford in another
