TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Friday, June 17. 1955
Bear State
Site Named
For Games
Paris (U.R) Squaw Valley,
Calif., a winter resort in the
Sierra Nevada, today was select
ed as the site of the 1960 Olym
pic Winter Games after Interna
tional Olympic Committee dele
gates questioned its eligibility
in a day-long wrangle.
The selection of the California
resort as the site for the winter
competition completed the main
talks of the 50th IOC Congress.
Yesterday the delegates chose
Rome as the site for the 1960
Summer Games. Tuesday they
confirmed Melbourne, Australia,
as the site for the 1956 Summer
Games. The 1956 Winter Games
will be held at Cortina d'Am
pezzo, Italy.
Squaw Valley edged its strong
est contender, Innsbruck, Aus
tria, 32 votes to 30 on the second
ballot after five hours of bitter
wrangling between the IOC
delegates.
Question Eligibility
The other candidates for the
winter games, St. Moritz in
Switzerland and Garmisch - Par
tenkirchen in Germany, were
eliminated on the first ballot.
The voting on the first ballot
was not disclosed.
The voting, which was sup
posed to take place this morning,
was put off until this afternoon
after European delegates ques
tion the eligibility of Squaw
Valley. The morning vote was
put off after three hours of bit
ter debate by the delegates.
The first shadow was cast on
Squaw Valley's chances when
European delegates drew' the
attention of the congress to an
Olympic rule that the games can
only be awarded to a town or
municipality. The delegates
claimed Squaw Valley was a
"business corporation" run by
private investors.
In Secret Session
The session, was secret, but it
was learned from delegates that
the t main opposition to Squaw
Valley came from Swiss IOC
Delegate Albert Mayer.
Mayer, a brother of the IOC
chancellor, has publicly support
ed the candidature of St. Moritz.
Alexander C. Cushing, president
of the California Winter Games
Committee and leader of the
Squaw Valley delegation, was
called into the secret session.
He faced a barrage of questions
on the municipal status of the
up and coming resort situated
along the crest of the Sierra
Nevada.
Cushing explained that Squaw
Valley was an incorporated city
which has no mayor but a city
council.

Cheney Studs Will Travel
For Series With Black Sox
Encountering possibly their
toughest foe so far this season,
the Medford Cheney Studs trav
el to Drain this week end.
Saturday night and Sunday af
ternoon Southern Oregon league
tussles are scheduled in Doug
las county's hotbed of baseball.
The Black Sox are defending
champions and before last year
ruled the roost in the former
Southwestern Oregon league.
Last week end the Black Sox
lost twice to a potent Coquille
crew. But they are still a force
to be reckoned with.
Pitchers represent the only
significant change in the Drain
roster this year. The rest of the
squad is much the same. Bob
Wake Forest
NCAA Champ
Omaha, Neb.-OJ.R) W ake
Forest from the baseball-minded
state of North Carolina reigned
as champion of the college base
ball world today.
The Deacons came from be
hind to defeat Western Michigan
7-6 Thursday night in the final of
the NCAA college world series.
Catchers played an important
part in the final contest.
Lin Holt, Wake Forest's ace
receiver, singled home Luke Mc
Keel in the 8th inning for the
winning run. McKeel had
walked and moved around to
third on a pair of passed balls
by Western Michigan catcher
Fritz Messner.
Three Run Cluster
Wake Forest jumped to a 3-0
lead only to see the Broncos
push across three runs in each of
the third and fourth innings to
grab an edge. .
But the southern nine tied it
with its own three-run cluster
in the sixth and set the stage for
Holt's heroics.
Meanwhile, newsmen covering
the tournament named Tom Bor
land, Oklahoma A & M senior
southpaw, as the outstanding
player of the series.
Borland won two games for
the Aggies and saved another in
relief to run his season record
to 11 wins and no losses. He
also set a series record by going
the full 12 innings in the Ag
gies' 5-4 win over Arizona.
Perm, Cornell
Oarsmen Picked
Syracuse, N.YY. (U.R) Penn
sylvania's Joe Burk and Cor
nell's Stork Sanford broke row
ing precedent today on the eve
of the 53rd annual intercol
legiate championship race.
With candid optimism usu
ally foreign among crew coaches,
both Burk and Sanford predict
ed their varsity eights would win
the main event over Lake Onon
daga Saturday afternoon.
Ten other coaches agree Ivy
League schools would battle it
out for the title. Six favored the
unbeaten Quakers, Eastern sprint
champions, while four felt that
Cornell would prove the stronger
on the three-mile championship
course.
Washington, Columbia, Stan
ford and possibly California were
rated among the dark-horse entries.

Track Stars
Begin Clash
In Coliseum
Los Angeles (U.R) Collegiate
track and field stars who will
form the major part of the next
U.S. Olympic team clash today
and Saturday in the 35th annual
NCAA track and field champion
ships at Memorial coliseum.
The University of Southern
California, winner of the last 18
NCAA championships, rates as
an overwhelming favorite to re
tain its team title in a field of
90 colleges and universities.
UCLA, Michigan, Kansas and
Illinois are expected to battle
for second place.
Individuals Watched
The chief interest will be
focused on individual competi
tion as standouts in a big field
of 339 trackmen threaten to
smash a possible dozen records.
From the individual standpoint,
this meet has all the earmarks
of being the greatest in the his
tory of the meet.
Qualifying trials were slated
to begin this afternoon in all
events except the distance races,
high . jump and pole vault.
Among the records threatened
are the half-mile, two-mile, high
jump, pole vault, shotput and
javelin.
SC's Ernie Shelton, who has
been flirting with the world's
high jump record all season,
tanked as the only certain win
ner in any of the 14 slated
events. Shelton has missed by
only Vi of an inch Walter Davis
world mark of 6 feet, IIV2
inches.
YALE. HARVARD VIE '
New London, Conn. (U.R)
The Yale varsity crew, which
hasn't been able to gain two suc
cessive victories over Harvard in
tho past 20 years, banked on
experience to help turn the
trick today. An hour or so before
dusk settles over the Thames
river, the sleek racing shells of
the rival crews will catapult
from the starting line at 7 p.m.,
EDT for a gruelling four-mile
pull over an upstream course.
Dead line Sunday Classified is at
noon Saturday; 1 a. m. Monday for
Monday: other days 5:30 oreviousday
Diller, who was with Grants
Pass last year, Jerry Cade, ex
Drain high star, Jerry Bartow
and Dick Weaver are counted
on as mainstays this season. Man
ager Roy Helser, Linfield college
coach and Coast league veteran,
still functions in a relief role.
Bartow is a Washington State
collegian while Weaver threw
for the Eugene Caseys last year.
Bettendorf Added
Returning infielders are Don
Porter, Vern Marshall, Bob
Buob, Ad Rutschman, and Bob
Cellars. Jerry Bettendorf is an
infield addition from Oregon
State college. Outfielders in
clude Pat Wohlers and Ted Wil
son. Bill Beard is veteran catch
er. Manager Clarence Mellbye of
the Studs has indicated that his
pitching choices will likely be
the same as last week. Warren
Noyes and Terry Maddox hand
led the assignments against Ban
don. Derald Wooton, however,
may get in some hill duty. The
two of the three not pitching
could be in the outfield during
the series.
Other week end games will
have Grants Pass at Bend and
Coquille at Bandon. Roseburg
gets a bye.
Results Saturday and Sunday
could considerably break up the
five-way percentage tie for sec
ond place now existing. Med
ford could take over the spot
alone as could Drain with two
wins. Bandon and Bend have
the opportunity to take over
the loop's top position with a
pair of victories. But Coquille
also could fatten its margin as
loop leader.
