The two Oregon teams In the
Northwest League sent the fans
bom happy last night and one
of them. Eugene, moved closer
I to first place.
Eugene turned In 5-1 and 7-4
victories over Wenatchee to
climb to within IVi games of
league-leading Yakima.
Salem continued its recent hot
streak with an 8-1 decision over
Spokane and Yakima edged Tri-
City 3-2 in the other game.
Eugene's 5-1 first game vic
tory was fashioned on a two-hit
ter spun Jointly by John Petula
and Bill Griffin. Petula gave up
one bingle in five innings and
Griffin allowed the other hit in
the final two frames. Petula was
the winner.
Three runs in. the eighth in
ning made the difference in the
nightcap. Manager Cliff Dapper
bunted the eventual winning run
home with the bases loaded and
two more runs crossed later on
singles.
Bob Easterbrook was the big
stick man for Salem. He belted
a two-run homer In the fifth and
followed with a three-run bound
ary belt in the seventh.
It proved plenty for Ad Sata-
lich who scattered five Spokane
hits and at one stage retired 17
hitters in order.
Yakima tallied two runs in the
second against Tri-City and got
Its eventual winning run In the
sixth on a double by reliable
Herm Lewis and a single by
Dick Renner.

Present-day Olympic Games
have far outstripped their an
cient Grecian counterpart in
size at least. The United States
alone expects to send some 325
athletes to the 16th Olympiad in
Melbourne, Australia, late this
year.
When the contestants of more
than 70 countries are counted
the total will reach into the
thousands. But in spite of the
fabulous spectacles of modern
times, officials may find it hard
to match the drama of the
Greek extravaganzas.
While exact figures are un
known. It is probable that at
their height the old games never
had more then a few hundred
competitors. Yet dynasties fell
and rulers were deposed as a re
sult of the scoring.
First Recorded Winner
The first Olympics in record
ed history were held in 776 B.C.,
when one Coroebus won an
award for victory in the equiva
lent of a 200-yard dash. Earlier
contests are shrouded in myth
and legend.
There are several stories of
the origin of the games. One of
the most provocative says that
King Oenomaus, who ruled the
Greek city of Elis and nearby
Olympia, devised a grisly pas
time. He decreed that his beau
tiful daughter Hippodamia could
be won as a bride by anyone
who took her in a chariot and
escaped her father pursuing in
another chariot. If the suitor was
caught he would be dispatched
by the monarch's spear.
Thirteen young men made the
attempt in turn and were
promptly skewered by Oeno
maus. The 14th aspirant was a
youthful warrior named Pelops.
The legend says the crafty
Pelops hired a charioteer to
sabotage the king's vehicle.
During the race, when Oeno
maus was drawing dangerously
close to elops' chariot, the wheel
of his car came off and Oeno
maus was killed In the follow
ing crash.
In celebration, Pelops is sup
posed to have founded the
games as a thanksgiving cere
mony to Zeus for his triumph.
Whatever their origin, the games
lasted for more than ten cen
turies. Until the Romans conquered
Greece, contestants were strictly
limited to young Greeks of im
maculate reputation. Except for
the last few, the games had a
solemn religious significance. So
great was their influence that
wars were temporarily stopped
for the Olympics to take place.
After 450 B.C. the games
reached their peak. It was the
ambition of every city in Greece
to have an Olympic champion.
Dedicated to the worship of
Zeus, contestants in the games
marched to the huge statue of
the god overlooking the field
and made prayers for victory.
Each player's prayer was quali
fied with: "Only if I am the
best."
After the Roman Invasion the
games gradually .deteriorated.
The athletes, instead of being
satisfied with a simple olive
wreath and municipal honors,
began receiving money and
other valuable prizes. The games
were abolished as a public nui
sance in 394 A.D. by Emperor
Theodosius I of Rome.
They were revived in Athens
in 1896, with athletes from nine
nations competing.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN
Violations
Of PCC Code
Stanford, Calif . (U.R) Ath
letic Director Al Masters of
Stanford has uncovered a "few
minor violations" of the Pacific
Coast Conference athletic code.
Masters said Wednesday he
found the violations in the
course of an investigation he is
making at the request of Presi
dent Wallace Sterling.
"I cannot give the number of
violations because the investi
gation is not completed and the
report first must be made to the
president," he said.
"However, I've found nothing
to indicate a slush-fund opera
tion, and I have found no organ
ized alumni payoff system."
He said all the infractions
were individual cases and not
part of an organized pattern.
All schools of the conference
are making a self-investigation.
The results are to be reported
to the PCC commissioner by
July 15.
Last week, the University of
California disclosed illegal cash
payments of $1100 to 20 athletes
during the 1955-56 academic
year, mostly for grants in aid.
