Tornado Favored in District 6 A-1
At Klamath Falls Field on Saturday
Medford high school track and
field men head for Klamath on
Saturday intent on capturing the
fourth consecutive district
championship for the Elack Tor
nado.
Tornado cindermen have col
lected the district bunting each
season since 1952 when Grants
Pass took the title. Medfordites
also have taken the first place
trophy 10 out of, 13 years.
Desirous as it is, the champ
ionship, nevertheless, will be a
econdary goal. Main objective
of Saturday's District 6 A-1 en
gagement will be to qualify a
large number of thinclads for
next week's state meet at Cor-
vallis.
The Tornado's aim in qualify
ing will be to gain sufficient
strength to hang onto its state
mantle. Klamath Falls, Ashland
and Grants Pass will attempt to
get sufficient qualifiers to threat
en Medford's state supremacy.
On the basis of season records
Medford goes into the Klamath
hassle the big favorite with
Grants Pass rated the Tornado's
chief contender.
All four schools, the smallest
field in A school eliminations
in this area in at least many
years, will be hoping for a fast
track and sunny weather, condi
tions favorable for an assault
on the record book. Season per
formances, particularly by the
potent Medford club, give strong
indication that some records will
fall if the weather cooperates.
Four Marks Bettered
District marks in four events
have been bettered by Tornado
stalwarts meets this season and
the Medford scantclads have dis
played a tendency of week by
week improvement. If that tend
ency continues into the Satur
day fray, marks may fall even
under adverse conditions.
District standards have been
Vaten by Lew Breazeale in the
pole vault, Wally Larson in the
low hurdles, Neil Plumley in
the shot put and by Les Lings
sheit, Bilbee Lane and Wilcey
Winchell in the half-mile. Lar
on in the low hurdles and the
Medford relay team of Larson,
Pete Kershaw, Mike Russell and
Mike Hawkins have run in only
.1 second over the district mark.
Coach Bob Newland said that
a squad of 33 Medfordites will
make the jaunt to Klamath
Falls. A complete roster, show
ing the exact line-up of Tornado
participants in the meet, was not
available from the mentor since
performers in some spots still
were not. decided.
Kershaw, Christean Bid
The coach indicated that his
ierew is at near full strength phy
sically. Newland reported that
Kershaw and Loren Christean
looked great in time trials of the
quarter-mile this week and said,
"They may be right up there
pushing Mike Russell of Medford
and Tom Farrell of Klamath on
Saturday."
Preliminaries in the high
hurdles and prelims and finals
in the shot put and broad jump
are to get underway at 11 a.m.
tomorrow. Heats in the 100-yard
dash are billed for 11:30 a.m.
with prelims and finals in the
discus to begin at 11:45 a.m. Low
hurdle heats are planned for 12
noon and those in the 220-yard
dash at 12:30 p.m.
Finals in the pole vault, high

A run-down follows, indicat
ing the top contenders in each

and Bob Gould, Medford, Dave

will have huge entries. Others
may have just a handful of

Top two placers in each event

A review of Class B county
meet results shows that Jackson
county performers produced the
better marks in the pole vault,
the broad jump, the mile, the
high jump, the quarter-mile and
the javelin. Klamath's best show
ings bettered the Jackson times
and distances in the shot put,
the 100 and 220-yard dashes, the
low hurdles, the discus, the half
mile and the relay.

Good Salmon
Run in Rogue
There is a good run of spring
chinook salmon in Rogue river
in the Grants Pass area and
there has been a good run oyer
Savage Rapids dam all week,
Cole Rivers, Game Commission
field agent, said today.
Rivers stated that very few
salmon have been caught be
cause the stream is so high and
muddy.
The run is just getting started
at Gold Ray dam, the biologist
reported. First salmon went over
on April 18 and only around 300
had gone across the counting
board as of today.
LeRoy Han Back
With Emeralds
Portland U.R) LeRoy Han,
21-year-old right-handed pitcher,
has been returned on option to
Eugene of the Northwest league
by the Portland Beavers of the
Pacific Coast league. '
His departure brought Port
land down to the 21-player lim
it. Red Adams, pitcher, and Jack
Littrell, shortstop, are temporar
ily on the disabled list with injuries.
chell, Medford, Doug Wilson,
Klamath Falls, and Phil Austin,
Klamath Falls.
High hurdles Wally Larson,

the district. Sander, Klamath
Falls, Jim Maryott, Grants Pass,
and Mike Stearns, Medford, are
among contenders.
Low hurdles Larson may

at least near his best effort to
outdo his own teammates, Tis
del, Hawkins and John Bellack,
and Chick Weller and Cattanach,
Grants Pass, and Butch Kimpton,
Klamath Falls.
Passenger Cars
Should Not Try
Fish Lake Trip
Fishermen should not at
tempt to drive passenger cars
into Fish lake this week end.
That is the advise of Lloyd
Morris, proprietor of the lake
resort. He said, however, that
trucks or pick-up trucks
should be able to make it to
the lake.
It is the last Vi miles of
road into the lake that spell
trouble for passenger vehicles,
Morris stated. Dead Indian
and McAllister Springs roads
are in good shape and passen
ger cars can get within IVi
miles of the lake. From that
point on there are a number of
holes too deep for vehicles
other than trucks.
The forest service had in
tended to fix up the road into
Fish lake prior to the week
end influx of anglers. But
yesterday's storm of rain and
snow delayed the work and it
may be the first of the week
before the bad spots are pass
able. Butte Falls road is rough,
according to Morris, and Cole
Rivers, Game Commission bi
ologist, said that route is prac
tically impassable.
Road into Willow lake is
good, Morris stated. Ground is
muddy around the parking
area. Fishing was good there
yesterday. The resort proprie
tor mentioned that most of the
anglers who did get through to
Fish lake yesterday took Aeir
limits. Trolling with .ford fend
ers and worms and still fishing
with single eggs produced the
best results.
