' CITY- (for information on quantity Bailey, Dellinger Lead UO To Conference Track Lead Eugene OJ.R) The Uni versity of Oregon, led by its two crack distance runners Jim Bail ey and Bill Dellinger, piled up 56 1-3 points here Saturday to dominate the Pacific Coast con ference Northern division track and field meet. Bailey, the man who has run the mile faster, than anyone else in the United States, won his favorite event in 4:06.4 today, considerably slower than the 3:58.6 he posted last week n defeating his fellow Australian. John Landy, the world record holder. But is was fast enough to leave the field behind and set a new meet record. The old mark of 4:12.2 was set by Phil Liebowitz of Idaho in 1940 and tied by Oregon's Bill Dellinger last vear. De'llinger, the 1954 NCAA mile champ, set the only other meet record of the day in the two-mile event.

Oregon picked up other first place finishes to go with the record breaking performances of Bailey and Dellinger. The Ducks took top honors in the 440, the javelin, the broad jump, the 220 yard low hurdles and then fin ished up the meet with a victory in the mile relay. Runnerup Washington, fin ishing further back this year then it has in the last two meets when barely edged out by Ore gon, posted 44 points. The Husk ies picked up first place points in the pole vault, discus and the 120 yard high hurdles. Washington State finished a distant third with 25 5-6 with Oregon State following at 24 1-3 and Idaho trailing the field at the final tabulations with 14V4. 4 to 3. Klamath Falls previously had bowed out of contention. -Medford and Grants Pass prepsters failed to get in either of there scuffles slated for last week. The conflicts are now billed for Grants Pass on Tues day and Medford on Wednesday. Wet grounds spoiled plans to play here on Friday. Grants Pass had a mix billed with Rose burg yesterday and Medford has a jayvee tiff at Ashland on Mon day. Medford Slates KF Coach Mel Ingram might have brought his GP Cavemen to play at the fairgrounds here Friday. But there was no assurance that the diamond would be adequate ly dried out. There was also the matter of further rain. Medford has also a loop dou bleheader date next Saturday at Klamath Falls. Grants Pass completes its league season with its Medford encounters. The Black Tornado needs to take both conflicts from GP to gain the loop lead. If it can accomplish that a split with Klamath would give Medford the championship. Grants Pass can grab the title by sweeping its Medford games. A split in the Tuesday - Wednesday action will assure the Cavemen of at least a knot for the crown. Ashland has finished league play. Verdict Goes To Bahama Syracuse, N.Y. (U.R) Yama Bahama said he expects to drop from middleweight to welter weight in his next bout "because the pounds slow me down," al though he was speedy enough to cop his 22nd straight victory i over a less-expenenced Hardy i (Bazook) Smallwood. Yama, who won a unanimous I decision over Smallwood in a ) national televised fight Friday i night, won't be seeking his next I match, however, until a cut that required stitches heals under his right eye. , Best Blow Smallwood'g best blow In the . slow fight opened the cut in the I third round, but Bahama's han ; dlers stopped the blood and it ' did not trouble the 23-year-old ! winner. j Referee Barney Felix called It j seven rounds for Bahama, two j for Smallwood and one even while Judge Paul Cummings gave the nod to Bahama, 5-4-1, and Judge Richard Fazio called it six for the winner and four for Smallwood.

Shasta Ski Bowl, Inc., has taken the wraps off the biggest moun tain development plan in the United States. A two section lift, spanning more than miles of Mt. Shasta's extinct volcanic cone, will carry passengers from a base station at 7,600 feet to a lookout at 11,050. Height of Mt. Shasta is 14,162. Sen. Randolph Collier, presi dent of the Ski Bowl organiza tion, said that the plan has been prepared by Heron Engineering, Denver, Colo. The upper lift will be the first in the nation to employ four passenger gondola cars. Capacity of the upper tramway is set for 250 passengers per hour, Lower lift will be a regular dou ble chair installation. It will han dle 600 passengers per hour and will run from the 7,600 to 9,800 feet elevations. The lower facili ty will be 7,775 feet long and will serve a ski bowl two miles long. Vice President Elmer Ken nedy said that the Ski Bowl organization has assurances that the entire development, includ- ing cost of a lodge, warming hut and upper vista house facilv ties can be completed for less than $1,000,000. The development plan was launched when the Forest High way. Programming body ear marked $880,000 for paving Everitt Memorial highway, from Mount Shasta to the Ski Bowl at Panther Meadows. Work on the 15-mile route is expected to begin in June. Mt. Shasta Chairlift Develop ment committee initiated the lift project. The Ski Bowl corpora tion has been formed out of con tributors to the development. Actual development will start after the U.S. forest service is sues a prospectus next month and approves the best qualified bidder. The project will be on forest service land and under its control. Time table calls for completion of the tower lift in 1958 and the upper lift in 1959.
