Mjil Tribune Sport Editor
Cliff Hansen, Crater Lake
Area council Boy Scout exec
utive, provided the tenia that
the Medford high track team
used Saturday at the District
track meet in Ashland. And
he was the main hand in set
ting them up according to
Coach Bob Newland.
There's a couple of corrections
to be made in the District 3 Class
A track meet result? as publish
ed Sunday. They came to light
after receipt in the mail Mon
day of the complete official tab
ulation and after a check with
Gene Allison, Ashland, the meet
director. There is no change in
the qualifiers, however.
In the high jump the top
height was 5 feet 8 inches not
5-9. It was made by Medford s
Bud Kastner as well as Ashland's
Doyce Lemley. They divided first
and second place points, getting
nine each. After reaching 5-8,
Lemley tried 5-9 three times and
missed. Kastner, knowing he had
second place and a state meet
spot cinched, didn't try to go
higher. Along the way to clear
ing Lemley had two misses in the
event and Kastner three. The
Medfordite conceded first place
ribbon to Lemley but the points
still were split.
In the pole vault, a recheck
of records showed that Parker
and Lewman, Grants Pass, Don
Goyette, Crater, and Gale
Friend, Eagle Point, all cleared
10 feet to tie for third place.
Results as first recorded on the
tcoresheet listed Parker third,
Goyette and Lewman tied for
fourth and Friend sixth. It was a
ease of a difference in the num
ber of misses on the part of the
vaulters. Points, nevertheless
should have been split.
These, then, if we have figured
our fractions right, should be
the correct team scores: Med
ford 171, Grants Pass 102 514,
Ashland 57 67, Klamath. Falls
51 57, Crater 21 2728, Eagle
Point 15V4, Henley 6 and Phoe
nix 1 87.
part in the Frosh-Rooks track
meet and won the javelin with
a 168-foot 7-inch cast. Ha was
second in the shot put.
OTHER MEDFORDITES
Several other ex - Medford
ite figured in the Oregon
Oregon State competition. Ed
Bingham was second in the
javelin (209 feet). Jack Moad
was second in the shot and
Dave Newland was third in the
pole vault for Oregon's var
sity. Benson Foley won the
pole vault (12 feet) for the
OSC Rooks.
MORRIS SHINES
Jack Morris, one of the all
lime great athletes at Medford
high whose football No. 21
was retired before his grad
uation, continues to shine in
spring athletic activities at
University of Oregon. Last
Saturday morning he was a
cog. as a fullback, for the
Whiles in the final varsity
spring football scrimmage. In
the afternoon he went out and
won the 100-yard dash and the
220-yard low hurdles" for the
Freshman team against Ore
gon State in :10 flat and -.24.9.
Both limes were better than
those turned in the UO-OSC
varsity meet.
In the final grid affair he
ran 18-yards . for one touch
down and sparked at least one
other TD drive.
CHAPPIE DOES WELL
Center Norm Chapman is an
other ex-Medfordite reported as
going great guns in Duck foot
ball workouts. Like Morris he's
a freshman this year but, of
course, doesn't , have Morris's
background of four years of mili
tary service. Chappie also took
MEDFORD GRIDDERS
Don Jacobs and Don Spinas
were Black Tornado alums join
ing Morris and Chapman in the
Duck grid drills. Jacobs is the
only one of the four with varsity
experience at Oregon. He was a
varsity reserve guard this year.
Jake has had a back ailment but
reportedly wasn't bothered with
it this spring. Spinas transferred
from Oregon.
AMBITIONS THWARTED
Medford high tennis team's
ambilions to be the club to end
the Roseburg winning streak
was thwarted in two ways. In
the first place North Bend
beat the Black Tornado to it.
Then the Tornado didn't get
a chance for its match at Rose
burg because of rain. The In
dians won 71 straight team
matches over a period of six
years before tumbling to the
Bulldogs. Roseburg claims a
national record.
Ray Coleman
Skeet Victor
Ray Coleman and Martin
Clogston took the major share
of honors Sunday in a skeet
tourney at Medford Gun club.
Coleman won two events.
Clogston was runner up to
Coleman and copped the other
event.
In the 100-target open class
Coleman broke 95 and Clogston
94. Coleman shattered 48 and
Clogston had 46J in 50-target
20-guage shooting. Clogston
cracked 44 and Ed Pease was
next with 414 in the 410-gauge
50-target affair.
All three were added target
handicap events. There were 15
shooters.
There will be no shooting at
the local club on Sunday. Mav

ROOKS TIP FROSH
Corvallis (U.R) In a base
ball game called in the sixth inn
ing because of rain, the Oregon
State Rooks downed the Oregon
Frosh 6-3 here yesterday. Dave
Gambee, six - foot - six basket

six hits. The Frosh won the an

DeMarco Beats
Libby Manzo
New York (U.R) Former
lightweight champion Paddy De
Marco was forced to alter his fu
ture battle plans today in the
wake of his second straight vic
tory over unranked Libby
Manzo of New York.
The Brooklyn "billy goat"
suffered a gashed chin in bat-J
tling to a split lu-rouna decision
over Manzo Monday night in a
widely-televised bout at St.
Nicholas Arena.
The cut required several
stitches and caused DeMarco to
postpone a fight with Bobby
Woods, prominent California
lightweight, which had been ten
tatively set for early next month
at Spokane, Wash.
Manzo, who had dropped a
similar split decision to DeMarco
at St. Nicks seven weeks ago,
also suffered facial damage in
their grudge return match. The
ex-choir' singer turned boxer
was cut above the right eye in
the third round.

Talent Keeps District
Title by 2-1 Victory
Talent high is District 5B
baseball champion for the second
successive year.
The Bulldogs came through
with some alert base running and
scored the winning run in the
seventh inning yesterday to de
feat Malin 2 to 1 for the mantle
in a game played at Merrill.
Talent, the Jackson County
B champ and defending state co
titlist, will next meet the Dis
trict 6 winner for the right to
enter the state tourney at Echo.
Moro reportedly has the Dis
trict 6 banner and the inter-district
fracas may be on Thursday
or Friday.
Against the Klamath county B
champions yesterday, the Bull
dogs made the most of their op
portunities and combined a
couple of walks with sacrifices
and two of their three hits to
earn the victory. In the seventh
it was J. Lloyd Wood who dashed
across the plate with the win
ning marker. .Pitcher Don Cog
hill, helping win his own game
with his bat, as well as his
throwing, got the rap which en
abled Wood to score.
Wood Walks
. Wood got on base by a walk.
George Zickefoose sacrificed
him to second base. Bob Hoffman
thumped a pop fly and Third
Baseman- Lavon Travis went
back on the play, leaving his
base open. After the catch Wood,
alert for the chance, scooted to
the unprotected bag. Coghill
then clubbed ball to third. He
beat out Travis throw but the
ball went through first for an
error. Wood tallied on the play.
A walk to Hoffman put the
first Talent run on base in the
third inning. Coghill sacrificed
Hoffman to second. Then, on a
bunt by half-pint Freddie Helm
and the play on him at first base
Hoffman romped in to score.
Helm got credit for a hit on the
play, since the Malin second
sacker hadn't quite got to first in
covering on this bunt.
A three-base error aided Malin
to score its lone marker in the
fourth canto. Ray Johnson hit a
long fly ball to right field. Helm
went a long distance for It and
got his hand on it but the ball
popped out of his glove. Marvin
Macken grounded out to short
stop and Johnson rambled across
the plate.
Triple Threatens
Malin came up with a bid in
the sixth inning when Roland
Harman, the lead-off man, trip
led. The next three men ground;
ered out, however. A nifty back
hand infield stop by Zickefoose
at second saved the day and pro
vided the third out of the frame.
Coghill, duplicating Hurler
Bill Owens of Malin, yielded just
three hits. The Talent tosser
struck out eight batters and is
sued one walk. Owens fanned
three and gave three bases on
balls.
Ron Weinhold got the other
safety for Talent. Johnson
cracked a double and Don Raj-
