Scores Victories
In North-South
Pinehurst, N.C. (U.R) Frank
Strafaci of. Garden City, N.Y.,
hoped today that he had all of
the "bulging bogeys" out of his
system and that could go on to
win the North and South Ama
teur Golf Championship for the
third time.
Strafaci survived two gruel
ling rounds of match play Wed
nesday in which he defeated H.
H. Haverstick Jr., of Lancaster,
Pa., 2 and 1, then established
himself as the tournament favor
ite by eliminating giant killer
Howard Everitt of Northfield
N.J., 1-up in 19 holes. Everitt
earlier had defeated the tourna
ment medalist, Doug Sanders of
Cedartown, Ga., 3 and 2 in the
upset of the tournament. Sand
ers had carded two successive
rounds of six-under-par 66's.

WILING
Could this year's Southern
Oregon Conference baseball
race wind up like the one in
1955 with a play-off neces
sary to determine the league
and district champion. (Klam
ath Falls, and Grants Pass met
on Medford's neutral field in
the decider.) The way this sea
son's chase has been going the
possibility of a deadlock again
in the final standings is strong.
But it's too early right now to
tell. Perhaps, this week end's
contention will give a better in
dication. Medford will meet Ashland
here tomorrow while Klamath
Falls entertains Grants Pass in
a double header. If Medford's
Black Tornado can repeat its
Tuesday victory over the Griz
zlies and if GP can sweep its
stand with the Pelicans, Ash
land, Medford and Grants Pass
will be locked in a tie for first
place and Klamath Fall.', virtual
ly will be out of the r?.ce.
Ashland and Klamath victor
ies would strengthen the hold
of the loop-pacing Grizzlies al
though the other three teams
still would be in definite con
tention. The Friday battles loom
as toss ups. Grants Pass and
Klamath split before and GP
fans feel the odds are against
a Caveman sweep on the Pel
field. Ashland has won two from
Medford and the Tornado one
from Ashland.
LONG BALL IMPORTANT
Perhaps our memory if
ihort but it seems the long
ball extra bate hits is
playing a bigger role in
Southern Oregon Conference
baseball. Quite a few homers
hare been walloped.
Portland Oregonian.
The bests listed are Wally
Larson, :20.4, low hurdles;
Mike Russell :51.1, quarter
mile; Wilcey Winchell, 2:02
half-mile and Lew Breazeale,
12 feet 9 inches, Pole vault.
Not listed is Neil Plumley's
53-9 3A shot put for Medford
which would place him second
to the 57-4 of Glenn Johnson.
Beaverion. Larson's :15-2 in
the high hurdles is second to
the :14.7 by Eric Giberson,
Beaverton.
It's interesting that another
Russell, Daryl, of Roosevelt,
Portland, has a :51.3 time in
the quarter, second best to
that of Medford's sophomore.
Bob Mason, Crater, is list
ed at secend best with 21 feet
in the brdad jump. Check back
into our files finds an early
season jump of 21-l3s for
Wayne Close, Medford, and
21-'2 for Mike Hawkins, also
Medford.

CRATER ON PAR
Crater, an A-2 contender
which will join the A-l ranks
next year, looms on near par
with the Southern Oregon Con
ference teams' in baseball this
spring. Medford had a tie and a
one-run win in contention with
the Comets. Ashland and
Grants Pass had to go extra in
nings for one-run nods but the
Cavemen did follow up the
closey with an 11 to 0 decision
over Crater.
MEDFORDITES TOPS
Four Medford high track
men have turned in the best
times in the state so far in
their events, according to a
rundown made by Bob Swan,
prep sports writer for the
TWO FINEST TEAMS
After the Grants Pass Rotary
club track meet last Saturday,
George Curtis, sportswriter for
tl.e Dailey Courier of GP, term
the Medford and GP teams "the
two finest 1956 high school
track teams in Oregon."
Curtis also says, "coaches who
want to compete on even terms
with Medford next year will
have -to improve their own
squads. They can't wait for
Medford to slip, because (Coach
Bob) Newland's crew is pretty
certain to be strong again." He
points to the top performers
Medford will have back next
year.

fishing at Gold Beach last week,
he took daughter, Susan, 9,
along and gave her a casting
rod with spinning reel with
which to do her fishing. The
result: Susan outdid her daddy,
who had the standard fishing
equipment. With only a 10
pound test line Susan caught
a 22-pound Chinook after bat
tling it for an hour and 20 min
utes. Before the fight was over
she had lots of spectators and
advice. Susan is a third grader
at Roosevelt school. The salmon
was the first fish she had ever
caught.

Poor spectator accomoda
tions for track at Grants Pass
are cause for lament by Cur
tis. He feels thai, if and when
a permanent grandstand re
places the temporary bleach
ers, crowds watching track
will be larger.
If larger, more comfortable
stands are to attract larger
crowds. Grants Pass fans will
have to be different from
those here. Medford has the
facilities for handling huge
numbers of cinder observers
but still the crowds are meag
er compared to what is de
serving for a state champion
ship team year after year.
