Wininger,
Fray To Harrington, Williams
George Harrington and Al
Williams, who had the advan
tage of familiarity with the home
links, subdued a pair of top
rated touring professionals, Billy
Maxwell and Bo Wininger, yes
terday in an exhibition best ball
golf match at Rogue Valley
Country club.
A small but enthusiastic gal
lery saw the home course pair
take a 4 and 3 decision over the
visitors, who were testing the
Medford fairways and tricky
greens for the first time.
Harrington, amateur and the
Rogue valley manager, set the
medal pace on the front nine as
the Medford men took a 2 up
advantage. He stroked a three-under-par
34 while Wininger and
Maxwell were collecting 36s.
Williams, the club pro, was one
over par for this portion of the
fracas. However, he won two
of the three holes, with birds,
that the home duo took on the
front lap. And on the back side
his par on every hole, while the
other players faltered, steadied
the Medfordites to their victory.
Court Considered Good
Pars on the 11th and 13th
greens gave the RVCC divotmen
their 4 up spread. The regular
jnatch ended on the 15th hole
where Maxwell and Williams
halved with threes.
Maxwell, from Odessa, Tex.,
nd Wininger, from Oklahoma
City, Okla., agreed that the
Rogue valley course is a good
one. While they took a setback,
they, nevertheless, fired credit
able scores on the unfamiliar
layout. Maxwell, the steadier of
the two, was one over par with
73 and Wininger, who had a
tendency to spray his shots,
as the foursome played out the
full 18 holes for the spectators.
The Rogue valley vets, Har
rington and Williams, each had
73s at the conclusion of the
. roimd which saw some strokes
conceded.
In medal best ball the home
club duo had a 67 to 70 edge. At
the end of the15 holes of match
play Harrington was one under
par, Williams one over. Max
well two above and Wininger
three over. .
Williams sank a seven or eight
foot put on the first hole for a
birdie that gave the Medford
team a lead it never relinquish
ed. Maxwell missed a bird when
his putt stopped on the rim of
the cup. The visitors made fine
approaches on No. 2 but couldn't
drop eight and 10 foot shots
to tie up the tussle.
Taka 3-Up Lead '
Harrington ran the count to
2 up with a 15-foot putt on No.
S green. Wininger came close
with a 17-footer on 3. Williams

lowed a fine tee shot to the green
by canning a 13 to 14-foot putt
for a birdie two. Harrington and
Maxwell almost dropped in their
pellets for twos.
All four men got fours on No.
5 Williams came close to a tnree
on a 60-foot try. The status quo
was kept on No. 6 when Har
rington plunked a 12-footer and
Maxwell a four-footer for birdie
threes. The rivals halved No.

Harrington. The visitors gained
back a hole when Wininger had
a great approach on No. 8 and

Williams drove into a hole
among trees behind a screen. He
picked up and took a bogey five
on his card.
On No. 9 Harrington matched
pars by Wininger and Maxwell
to halve the hole.
Now new Chevrolet Task-Force trucks bring
you the industry's most advanced V8 engines
with an ultra-short stroke for reduced
friction and wear. Here are some of
the features that make 'em the most
modern V8's
Modern 12-volt electrical system
You get double the punch for quicker starting
(up to 30 faster cranking speed) and more
efficient ignition for finer performance. Also,
you have a greater reserve of electrical power.
Gas-saving high-compression ratio
With a high 7.5 to 1 compression ratio, Chev
rolet's new V8 truck engines squeeze extra
power and work-out of every tankful of gas.
Your ton-mile hauling costs go down with this
modern V8 power on the job!
Extra-high power per pound
The compact, super-efficient design of these
advanced V8's results in high power output per
pound of engine weight. This means that more
of the power is actually available for hauling.

Over the next six greens Win
inger had four bogies, Maxwell
three and Harrington two.
Trap Trouble
Maxwells par enabled a halve
on No. 10 but on 11 both the
visitors had trap trouble. Win
inger's recovery went over the
green and Maxwell's plopped on
the side of the apron. The home
boys took the hole with pars.
The opponents broke everv on
12 when Wininger matched pars
with George and Al. On No. 13
the Rogue valley team won with
pars when the visitors missed
short putts. Williams got a par
along with Maxwell and Wining

The two pros termed the
Rogue Valley links one of the

played on since starting the cir

is something to be proud of,"
he said. Both men demonstrat

questions.
Maxwell, eighth ranking mon

circuit, and Wininger, 10th rank

to the Western Open which be
gins Thursday in Portland. They
had just competed in the United
States Open at San Francisco.
Both were in the money.
Wininger won the Baton
