However, the s p e e-d mer
chant's most amazing perform-
ance was in the half-mile relay.
A bad baton pass made a 20-yard

perhuman effort. He lacked but
an inch in catching the Klam

third for Medford in the pole
vault. Roger Hobbs was fourth

Other Medford scorers were
Bill Pruitt fourth in the 220,

County Class
B Track at
Ashland Soon
Jackson county class B high
schools expecting to enter boys
in the county meet at Ashland
next Saturday, May 6, today
were asked to send their list of
entries to Coach Ed Knapp at
Gold Hill high school by Monday
night.
Knapp explained that quick
listing of entries is needed so
he as chairman of the meet can
arrange for times of events, espe
cially in case many prelims have
to be run off.
Prelims at 9:30 a.m.
Preliminaries next Saturday
will start at 9:30 a.m. on the
Ashland high field with finals
slated for 1:30 p.m. Knapp said
that entries are expected from
Gold Hill, Rogue River, Talent,
Phoenix, Jacksonville, Butte
Falls and St. Mary's (Medford).
Only Prospect high probably
will not send a squad.
Gold Hill won the meet last
year and also in 1948 but Knapp
foresees this year's competition
as much greater. The Beavers
placed second in the class C Hay
ward relays.
