The Black Tornado travels to Yreka, Calif., on Tuesday' and on Friday plays its final district contest at Klamath Falls. Medford will be out to win the Klamath tussle but the game will have no bearing on the championship of District No. 6 A-l. That mantle has already been clinched by the Tornado. Between Medford and a berth the state tourney is a plaV' off with the winner in District No. 6 A-2. On Saturday the Med ford crew showed it strength in comparison to the other district by double whipping Myrtle Creek 7 to 2 and 13 to 1.

Lander. re Excitement Mounting at Derby Site Louuville, Ky. (U.R) It's Derby Week ai Churchill Downs and the excitement is mounting rapidly. Monday, five days before the field goes to the post for the famed "run for the roses" it ap pears that the lack of a standout entry such as a Citation, Whirl away, or Count Fleet was going to insure a large field a dozen or more starters for the mile-and-a-quarter classic. The likely favorite, subject to many things that can happen be tween now and late afternoon on Saturday, appeared to be Cal umet Farms classy Hill Gail. Immediate attention, is center ed on Tuesday's $10,000 Derby trial at the Oowns, the very last of the big pro-Derby tests. Only about half of the Derby possi bilities now stablcci at the track are expected to go postward in this event, a mile run. But, for those that do start Tuesday, it will be an important "final look." Sub Fleet on Trial Definitely on trial In the "trial" will be Dixiana farm's Sub Fleet, a son of famed 1943 Derby champion County Fleet and half-brother io 1951 winner Count Turf. Sub Fleet, it is be lieved, will have to show a strong effort in Tuesday's race in order to earn a berth in the classic on Saturday. Steve Brooks is scheduled to ride the Dixiana star in both races. Alfred G. Vanderbilt's Cousin, a puzzling entry, may also get a start in the trial. Arroz, a leading California nominee, is listed as a definite GRUELING 1,415-MILE TEST IN ilSilSISAS ElliiliY 111 What a test to prove Mercury and Lincoln superiority!
