SOC Places 3rd in OCC Tournament Ashland Southern Oregon college defated Eastern Oregon college Saturday, 6 to 5, for third place in the Oregon Collegiate Conference baseball tournament at Klamath Falls. The afternoon victory came after the Red Raiders had trounced Portland State college in the morning, 9. to 1. SOC, pre- tourney favorite, lost out in its bid for the title when it lost 16 to 9 Friday in the opening round to Oregon College of Education. OCE went on to beat EOCE 10 to 4 and Oregon Technical In stitute 14 to 6 to gain the cham pionship. In its final game Southern Ore gon got three runs in the first inning with doubles by Dick Nix and Ritchie Price and got an other marker in the third on an other double by Price and sin gle by Tiger Bob Smith. They took 6 to 0 command in the fourth inning on singles by Ellis and Ned and Ted Landers. From there on the Raiders hung on as the EOCE Mounties belted Hal Schneidermann from the mound and got three runs in the fifth inning and two in the sixth. The Mounties got . run ners on base in the seventh but smart fielding cooled the effort Pitcher Keith Johnson scatter ed 12 hits as SOC eliminated State. Fred Luper and Johnson drove in seven of the Raider runs. In the Friday mix SOC once held an 8 to 7 edge but OCE bats men got to three Raider chuck ers for 19 hits. SOC batsmen failed to come through for the first time this season with men on base. In the fourth, fifth and sixth innings the Raiders had bases loaded with only one out but couldn't muster scoring punch. . The leading SOC batsman of the two day tourney were Ritchie Price with six hits in 11 times to the plate and Tiger Smith who had five hits in 10 times at bat. Ned and Ted Landers each had four hits in 12 times at bat, and Dick Nix had three for 11 Fred Luper batting .395 going into the tournament went into a batting slump and got only two hits in 13 times to the plate Southern Oregon hitting fell down somewhat as they left 26 men on base during the three- game series. The pitching staff of SOC wasn't up to its best performance as they rendered 40 base hits and walked 14 batters. They also gave up three home runs, three triples and five doubles.

(U.R) Twenty-five veterans and eight rookies comprising a record- shattering field were set today for the 500-mile Memorial Day auto race', expected to be the richest and fastest in the 39 year history of the speedway sweepstakes. Four week end days of time trials were completed Sunday night as easy Ed Elisian of Oak land, Calif., became the final qualifier. He averaged a com paratively slow 135.333 miles per hour, booting the car of Len Duncan, Reading, Pa., out of the lineup. Three other cars were bumped by faster ones and the pack av eraged 138.796 mph, just a frac tion faster than last year's 138.- 632. The average slipped on the final day as drivers and car own ers gambled against both wea ther and the clock. So it was that Johnny Thomson, Spring field, Mass., squeaked into the 11-row starting lineup averaging only 134.133 as the slowest qual ifier, a full 3J2 miles slower than the last one a year ago. The fact that 41 qualifying laps or better than 140 miles an hour were run against only seven last year and that 10 cars quali fied averaging better than 140 for the 10 miles compared with just one last year account for the higher overall speed.
