Medford and Roseburg will be guests in the Rotary club meet at Grants Pass, and Klamath Falls and Crater will be enter tained by Ashland. For Medford's Black Tornado, which has shown its strength on two successive week ends as a relay tussle power, it will be the first session of the season on an individual performance basis in which official points are tab ulated. Only regular meets in which the Tornado has taken part so far in which score was kept were the Rogue and Hay ward relays. However, Grants Pass and Med ford have had a varsity-novice practice engagement in which the Tornado showed consider able strength against the Cave men. Coach Bob Newland said that the squad he will take to Grants Pass tomorrow will include about the same boys who made the trip to the Haywards. Wet weather has hampered practice this week, particularly that of the sprinters. However, New- land reported that the Medford gang has been bearing down in workouts and is healthier than it was for. the two relay con flicts. Medford hurdlers won the shuttles in both relay meets but Newland said that his barrier hoppers are just starting to come around and are looking better than they have previously The two Miles, Hawkins and Stearns, particularly, are progressing,, he said. Because of the fear of pulled. muscles in the cold and on the soggy track, the. Tornado has had to hold off on its speed work this week. Two heats each in the 100 and 220-yard dashes and the high and low hurdles are billed at Grants Pass. Four boys from each school will be allowed to enter. The schools will be per mitted to enter any number they want in the other events, New land reported. Ribbons and medals for the first . two places in each event will be awarded. 7 Sera fin, Krojl Virginia Beach Links Leaders Virginia Beach, Va.
