    Jud Smith
Champ; Scores Ace
An imbedded ball and a bees'
nest failed to restrain Justin
Smith Jr. in his march to the
Rogue Valley Country club
men's golf championship yester
day and the young linksman,
who has played for Medford
High school and the University
of Oregon, showed his disdain
for incidents of adversity by
sinking a hole-in-one after he
had tucked away the title.
Jud subdued Bob Rector 5 and
4 in the club title finale, second
half of which was contested
yesterday at the Medford course.
He chipped out an imbedded
ball lie on the soft 32nd green
before he sank his putt to end
the scuffle.
The bee trouble for the new
champ came on the 31st hole.
No. 13 on the links. Smith's ball
