St. Mary's
Should Find
IV Tough Foe
St. Mary's hin's Crusaders,
who had the statistical edt;e Sat
urday nijiht when they dropped
a football decision to Sacred
Heart, may find the goinq even
rougher this Friday when they
travel to Cave Junction to meet
the Illinois Valley acsresation.
Prospects for the Cougars of
the Illinois are much better than
they were a year a;:o. Coach
Gale Davis has an all veteran
crew he can call on for back
field service and he has sufficient
lettermen for a complete line.
On top of that the Couuars show
ed their possibilities last week
end with a 33 to 7 verdict over
Yoncalla.
Backs who are lettermen are
T. J. Milliean, quarterback.
Gary Meredith and Ken Lock
hart, halfbacks, and Pete John
son, fullback. In the line the
vets are Mike Piller and Pat
Siminetnn. ends. Ken Krauss
and Eldo Swift, tackles. Ron
Spencer and Jim Deaton, guards,
and Ron Cherry, center.
Against Yoncalla the Cousars
were a driving, slashing team on
offense and held the Eagles to
minus yardage on defense in two
periods. The IV pass defense,
however, faltered at one stage.
The "Eagles completed nine of
12 passing tries in their 77-yard
push for their lone touchdown.

By HAL WOOD
San Francisco U.R) The
seeds of body building through
athletics, planted on far-flung
shores by such men as Bob Ma
thias and Mai "Whitfield, are
starting to bear fruit.
Qazi Abdul Alim, a 24-year-old
athlete from East Pakistan,
is a living example.
Qnzi is a visitor in the United
States to get his masters degree
in physical education at Uni
versity of Oregon. He also hap
pens to he the top decathlon man
in all of East Pakistan which
has 40.000,000 population. On
top of thaf he is a champion soc
cer player, plays some basket
ball and at one time held a na
tional boxing title.
Big At 5-10' i
At 24. Qazi stands five feet,
10' 2 inches, weighs 142 pounds
much bigger than most men in
his country. '
He holds a masters degree al
ready in history and internation
al relations.
'"My ambition is to return to
my native land to teach at the
university," says Qazi. "I want
to prove to the people that one
can have a good mind and still
encage in sports.''
He says that it has been the
belief in his country down
through the centuries that a good
scholar never could or should
encage in athletics.
"They believe that a scholar
should love his books that he
should not be interested in the
body." says Qazi. "I want to
prove that they are wrong and
that a scholar also can be an
athlete."
Bowerman Instructs
Qazi learned much of his ath
letic ability from studying books.
"It was not until Bob Mathias
and Mai Whitfield visited our
country that I got professional
instruction," he says. "Then
along came Coach Bill Bower
man from University of Oregon
and he taught us more.
' As a result of these visits by
the Americans, more persons in
East Pakistan are learning to
enjoy sports. It has been a wond
erful thing for our country."
Qazi Abdul Alim's marks in
the declathlon wouldn't win a
high school meet in this country
possibly because of his slight
build. He pole vaults 11 feet, 6
inches; puts the 16 - pound shot
31 feet, 5 inches; throws the dis
cus only 93 feet and the javelin
144 feet. His best broad jump
is 20 feet, 9V inches. And he
runs the 100 meter dash in
about 11 seconds.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN
Planes Searching
For Uranium Ores
Spokane U.R) An aerial
survey to locate possible uran
ium deposits is being conducted
in the Bend, Ore., area, Don
Hetland, chief of the district of
fice of the Atomic Energy com
mission, said Tuesday.
He said the AEC is trying to
extend known uranium deposits
by surveying areas which have
not received a great deal of at
tention from prospectors.
The survey is being conducted
by Pilot Tom Kocher and Geolo
gist Dan Magleby, who are be
ing a scintillometer. Results
probably will be posted within
a month, Hetland said.
Aerial surveys of this type
have been conducted in many
parts of the West, chiefly in the
Colorado plateau, but this is the
first and last in the North
west, Hetland said. He said the
AEC was "pulling off aerial
surveys entirely and that the
work would be left in the hands
of private industry.

wing and tail feathers.
About a week or so before the
young are ready to fly their
prison, the female breaks her
way out of the nest. Then,
dressed in her fresh cloak of
feathers, she helps her mate feed
the young.
But the wonder does not stop
here: with an amazing display
of instinct the babies left be
hind immediately rebuild the
entrance barrier themselves."
Next, let's consider the honey
guide. Its scientific name is In
dicator indicator which ob
viously means this bird points
out something. And it does: it
points out to man the nests of
wild bees. This it does by con
stantly chattering until it draws
the traveler's attention; then it
flies ahead until it reveals the
hive. The African natives who
profit by this behavior then
usually break open the bees'
nests and take the honey, leav
ing some of the comb for the
wild bird which it consumes
avidly.
It is difficult to believe that
the bird reasons out this method
of securing food, state the bird
experts Dean Amadon and E.
Thomas Gifliard. authors of the
bird section of The Animal
Kingdom (Greystone Press,
N.Y.). Rather we should suppose
that over a long period of time
an instinctive type of behavior
was developed with some four
footed honey-eater, perhaps the
honey badger and not man, serv
ing as its original partner.
Although most honey guides
are partial to honeycomb, only
one or two species have evolved
this "guidinq" behavior.
