ments will count in Southern

;McLaughlin is expected to get
'the hill assignment for one of

are non-conference af

I! Wisely Still Sidelined

--is still laid up with an ankle
""injury, according to Kovenz. The

ath Falls last week end and did
'. Creditable work. His favored
; 'spot is shortstop, a position oc-
cupied by veteran Gordon Ows
ley. .' ; The Medford and Ashland jun

iChicago Wants
;Pan Am Games
-' Chicago KU.R) The city of
Chicago has reaffirmed its de
!sire to hold the 1959 Pan Ameri---
can games on the shores of Lake
Michigan and said it has the
; money necessary for the track
;and field event which official-
Jly designated Cleveland doesn't
have.
The Lake Erie city, designated
host city for the game by the
Pan American Sports Congress
, executive committee, counted on
a five-million dollar federal ap-
propriation for "proper financ
ing" of the games.
' Only Hope
Not so Chicago. A spokesman
for the city government said
" ; Chicago had all the money neces
ijsary and plenty of facilities in
, t which to hold the gigantic ath--Metic
event.
"Chicago will be highly hon-I-ored
to be selected as the city
" for the locale of the games,"
. Mayor Richard J. Daley said.
With Cleveland's lack of
! funds, the Windy City looked as
; I if it were the only hope of hold-
ing the games in the United
-States.
In Washington, it was report
; : ed a House Appropriations sub-
. committee would not recom-
-mend a federal appropriation
-.for the games.

John White of Portland also
advanced to the semi-finals with
a decision over Paul Sullivan of
Boston in the 132-pound class.
Boston' (U.R) Defending
champions Albert Pell of N e w
York City and Jim McCarter of
Seattle, Wash., will lead 34 of
the nation's best amateur fight
ers into tonights semi-finals and
finals of the National AAU box
ing championships at the Gar
den. Pell, a cat-quick Negro with
a talented pair of hands, will
meet Bob LeFebre of Winooski,

pound division. Bruising heavy
weight McCarter is set for a
semi-final match in the tourney's
69th annual competition.
10 Champions
Champions will be crowned in

Taylor's Score
High in Shoot
Chuck Taylor of Central Point
led the riflemen at the weekly
shoot of Phoenix Gun club with
a healthy 388 out of 400 in the
four position rivalry."
In second place was Pete Char
ley with 384. Third was Neal
Tripp also with 384 but with
lower off hand score which broke
the tie. This was Tripp's highest
score of the year. Jim Bolton
was fourth with 380 and Marty
Perreard fifth with 379.
Only-18 -shooters participated.
The officers' of the club pointed
out that guns are available at
the range and that any- one inter
ested in shooting is welcome.
Lt. Gen. Floyd L. Parks, USA
(Ret'd),. executive director of
National Rifle association, will
pay a visit on Tuesday, May 7.
The club will endeavor to have
an intercity meeting so all the
NRA members ' and the public
can meet him.
school will have to earn their
spots in the Eugene meet, coach
Bob Newland has indicated.
However, the crew should be
about the same as that which
regained the Rogue relay cham
pionship for Medford last week
end.
Newland reported all of his
squad is in good shape as of last
night with the exception of shut
tle hurler and 440-yard relay
man Terry Hamilton. He turned
his ankle during practice Mon
day. So far as the shuttles are
concerned, Mike Stevens, Fred
Funston and Henry Courtney
were to be battling today with
Jerry Close and Wally Larson
tor the three positions.
Keen Competition
While Medford has the role of
favorite, it can expect some
keen competition for the Hay
ward crown from Grants Pass,
second in the Rogues, and from
such other schools as Eugene,
Beaverton, Albany, North and
South Salem and Fort Vancou
ver and Hudson Bay Heights of
Vancouver, Washington. Jeffer-.
son of Portland will have a siz
able entry and thereby be a con
tender. But only the top per
formers in last week end's Port
land relays will attend and most
of the schools from the Oregon
metropolis wil have limited en
tries. Comparison of three relay
meets held in the state last
week end show Medford with
the best performances in the
six events it won in the Rogue
tussle. It's still hard to predict
what this week will bring. The
Tornado barely won the shuttles
from GP and, if Jim Maryott,
the Cavemen's No. 1 hurdler;
is back the Tornado will have
a big chillenge in that event.
Maryott was sidelined from the
Rogues because of a knee in
jury. GP Has Two Best
The results showed GP last
week with two of the best marks
in the state in events it won
here. Jefferson of Portland and
GP were shown for the same
times in the 440 in separate
meets. Lincoln of Portland had
a better time by .1 of a second
in the distance medley and had
an even faster time this season.
In all some 1250 athletes are
expected to vie in the two-day
track carnival at Eugene.
On Saturday Klamath Falls
joins Grants Pass and Medford
as southern Oregon representa
tives in the metro group. Ash
land and Crater are entered in
Class A. In B class Friday likely
southern Oregon entrants are
Eagle Point, Phoenix and Illi
nois Valley. And in Class C the
same day St. Mary's of Medford
and Rogue River and possibly
