The time was as sparkling 4:us.z. It was Santee's finest per- . formance and fastest clocking in the Garden, where he won several times in slower times last winter. His best previous gar den time was a 4:06.5 effort. 1 .

Hunters Switch To Scatterguns Portland (U.R) Oregon hunters switch from rifles lo shotguns tomorrow with the deer hunting season over and the bird season beginning. , The waterfowl and pheasant seasons start a half hour be fore sunrise. Best waterfowl hunting is expected in the Klamath basin where pintails and white-front-' ed geese are reported in the lower Klamath area in big numbers. Upper Klamath lake was said to be well populated with ducks, with pintails and spoonbills predominating. Duck hunting in western Oregon was expected to be only fair. Some Willamette valley areas should be good for pheas ant shooting while Umatilla county appeared the best bet in eastern Oregon. Junior High Ninth Grade Elevens Play MH Runners Subdue KF Les Lingscheit nosed out Wil- cey Winchell for top individual honors yesterday as Medford high cross country runs de feated Klamath Falls 22 to 35 here.

BOSTON OlSu INC., BOSTON $4)35 McLoughlin goes after its first win and Hedrick seeks its second as Medford junior high ninth grade teams see action Saturday. McLoughlin will be host to a big Klamath Falls team at 1:30 p.m. while Hedrick will scrap the Crater Frosh at 7 p.m. at Cen tral Point. At Hendrick, Coach Barney Riggs declined to make predic tions concerning the outcome of the Crater tussle. However, he did mention a lot of improve ment in the Hornets and he indi cated an increased desire in the club to play ball. Riggs said the Hornets looked good in a hard scrimmage on Wednesday. The Crater club holds a 13 to 7 verdict over McLoughlin which tied Grants Pass. In turn the Cave Kids have whacked Hedrick 54 to 0. But the Hornets are counting on their improve ment to help them give the Cen tral Points a real battle. KF Larger Than GP McLoughlin faced a bigger team in its knot with Grants Pass and Klamath's club packs more weight than Grants Pass. However, the Cave Kids hold a decision over the Pelican Frosh. Coach Mel Boldenow of the Bull dogs has pointed out that the comparison can't be relied upon to assure McLoughlin an edge since Klamath generally gets tougher as the season progresses. The . Pelican club has a 31 to 0 win over Ashland which Hed rick nipped last week 14 to 13. Likely offensive starters for McLoughlin are Bob Planken horn and Frank Peterson, ends; Don Mann and Jim Fontaine,' tackles; George Ice and Warren Chick, guards; Dennis Barr, center, and Bob Pond, Gerry Lyons, Ronald Reich and Fred Funston, backs. Possible starting crew for Hedrick is Gary Winetrout and Don Peek, ends; Don Tinseth and Monte Penwell, tackles; Monte Whaley and Ronnie Mil- Mckenzie surveyed Portland Spring chinook salmon spawning escapements this year into the upper McKen zie river appear to be the largest in eight years according, to a re cent stream survey made by the Oregon Fish Commission.

Maurer is bothered by "a bad back and Bob Emmens could open in his place at left half. theScouth fork of the McKtazl duri' the two-day survey. The biologists classified the area covered during the survey as very good salmon spawning area. . FISHERMEN! Trout Season Over? Not at . . . L. an D.
