c
Fanfare
Picking up the odds and ends
after the Hayward relays:
After six consecutive triumphs
by the Black Hornado in the Eu
gene classic there's even more
argument for those who wish to
rename the meet the "Medford
relays." After five straight Med
ford wins the metro elass also
could be called the "Tornado
division."
ELDON IN GROOVE
Most gratifying feature of
the Hayward meet it the indi
cation that Eldon Francis.
Medford spear thrower is back
in form. The 1955 Ail-American
javelin man as a sopho
more had troubles as a junior
but at Eugene on Saturday ap
peared back in the groove
with his record toss and all of
his throws were over the 175
mark. His coach,. Bob New
land, going through the March
issue of the Track and Field
news, noted that Francis's
top heave of 194 feet in 1955
competition rates as the best
all-time throw on record for a
high school sophomore.
TOP MILE TIME
Newland also reported that
the 3:26 mile relay time Satun
dsy by Pete Kershaw, Loren
Christean, Les Lingscheit and
Mike Russell, was better than
the top time for the year listed
in the March Track and Field
News. Andrews high of Texas
had a 3:26.2 mark. Neil Plum
ley's 56-1 H shot put at Eugene
was the best of his competitive
career and ranks ninth in the
country for prepsters so far
when compared to the T and F
tabulations. Tops is 61-11 by
Branson, Pasadena, Calif.
DEAD HEAT IN SHUTTLES
At first report following the
race at Eugene Medford was
said to have a dead heat with
Jefferson of Portland in the
shuttle hurdles. When the tab
ulations came out, however,
Jeff had first place although
the timet of the two schools
were the same.
PLAQUE TCT NEWLAND
In addition to the champion
ship trophy the Medford club re
ceived a plaque, with, a picture
of Bill Hayward, as well. The
squad members presented the
plaque to Newland, who leaves
Medford at the end of the school
year for the vice-principal post
at North Eugene high.
JEFF PROUD
A Jefferson high athlete told
Les Lingscheit, Medford mid
die distance - star, - that the
Democrats were "proud to fin
ish behind the champions."
FAST TIME RECORDED
Injury to Wally Larson's an
kle apparently was not too seri
ous. He was clocked in :21.8 in
his anchor league of the half
mile relay, having, of course, a
running start. A good ankle tap
ing job by University of Oregon
trainer Bob Officer helped out.
Loren Christean was clocked in
:49.9 and Mike Russell in :50.9
in their legs of the mile relay.
Running starts and the spot of
the baton exchange naturally
had some effect on the clocking.
CRATERS TWINS TOPS
A new feature of the 1957
relays, which we were not
aware cf until after the meet,
was in the non-relay field
events. In the pole vault, dis
cus and javelin both entries
from each school were eligible
for points if they placed high
enough. In the past only one
boy from a school could gel
points in the events.
In that way Crater high in
Class A got both first and sec
ond spots in the javelin with
Gary Smith's record throw of
174-7 being followed by his
twin brother Lary's 167-5. Phil
Paquin and Stan Lewman.
Grants Pass, knotting at 12-7
in the pole vault, also gained
points for first and second for
the Cavemen.
Portland Divides
With OSC Nine
Corvallis U.R) Bill Wittala
pitched Portland to a 6-2 victory
over Oregon State in the second
game Saturday after the Beav
ers won the opener 6-5 in 10
innings.
RIEDER VICTOR
Timberline Lodge U.R) Toni
Sailer, a triple gold medal win
ner in the 1956 Winter Olympics,
finished in third place Sunday
in the annual Golden Poles giant
slalom at Mt. Hood in a blizzard
that saw visibility cut to almost
zero. Sailer was beaten by Josl
Rieder. a fellow Austrian, who
finished first, and Francois Bon
lieu of France. Putza Frandl, an
other Austrian, won the women's
division.

Is That So?
By Eugene Burns
Banger-Naturalist
(Editor's note: This Is the second of
the series on animals In warfare.)
Because of their remarkably
keen senses and high intelli
gence, many dogs can be trained
to save human lives in ways
which only a dog could perform.
What a man can hear at 175
yards by straining, a dog can
hear easily a full mile away and
with beautiful discrimination,
quickly trained to detect the
meaning of slightly different
sounds that spell danger.
When a man has difficulty dis
tinguishing between two adjoin
ing notes on the piaho the dog
can distinguish easily one-quar
ter of this range.
While his master's localization
of the source of -sound is indeed
crude a sad deficiency parti
cularly in war patrol work, his
dog's is exact to one degree. (But
for that matter, a barnyard
biddy can localize sounds better
than a man can.)
But even keener than hearing
is the dog's sense of smell. Not
only can a dog follow a trail
through the forst on a dark night
as easily as a man can follow a
well-posted highway in broad
daylight, but even after a lapse
of several days a dog can some
times take up a man's trail and
know in which direction the
man went!
This means that dogs with
keen ears, sensitive noses and
slashing fangs backed with
power and courage can and do
save many lives in combat, and
in many ways.
Dogs helped their coast guard
masters patrol beaches from
Maine clear around to Washing
ton during the past great war to
detect possible saboteur night-
landings by submarines. (Allied
spies made many such submarine
landings on Japanese-held is
lands during the Pacific war to
set up guerrilla, warfare, for one
thing.)
Effective in Fog
In the Aleutians, where the
fog was often so thick that sen
tries could not see one another
five feet away, dogs never al
lowed a Japanese scout to go
through their patrol. In Guada
canal, they sniffed out and ex
posed Japanese snipers and mortar-fire
spotters hidden away in
the densely-screening jungle. In
areas inaccessible even to heli
copters, they located airplane
crash victims who left the wreck
age fearing enemy reprisals.
For scouting, when silence is
of utmost importance, dogs have
been trained on. hand-signal
alone, without a word of com
mand, to run, crouch, and "hit
the dirt." And instead of running
to an enemy, exposing both dog
and handler to enemy fire, to in
dicate distances by the strength
of their pull on the leash.
And dogs are still proving ex
pert sentinels. Maj.Gen. Robert
H. Peffer, in command of the
west coast Marines, told me re
cently, upon returning from an
inspection tour to Japan and
Korea, that the Marine war dogs
were serving well in those areas
even today during peacetime. '

By RICHARD B. LANEY
United Press Correspondent
Salt Lake City (U.R) I had
a tooth drilled without taking
an anesthetic. It was absolutely
painless.
I was under hypnosis.
I had arrived at the dentist's
by a recent army report. In the
Kobe, Japan, area where ware
houses were guarded by an in
fantry battalion during a four
month period $600,000 of ma
terial was stolen. The battalion
was replaced by 65 German shep
herds and 125 men and since
these "K-9s" have pounded the
beat there has been only one in
cident of attempted theft in ten
months. The dog caught and bad
ly lacerated the potential thiefs
arm and not one dollar's loss!
In Korea, since guard dogs were
assigned to guard duty in mid
1956, pilfering has been reduced
by 95 per cent.

Burns will discuss the numbers
of dogs used in World War II and
how they performed at the front

nervous and fearful. My dentist
explained that hypnodontics
the use of hypnotism in den
tistry had been used in 20,000
dental operations. He said it
eliminated or reduced pain,
stopped the flow of blood and
relaxed the patient's "fear of
the drill."
I agreed to try it (no person
can be hypnotized against his
will).
The "dentist told me to close
my eyes and relax completely.
He had me concentrate first on
.relaxing my feet, then my legs,
then my stomach muscles, and
so on.
Follow Directions
He told me to visualize a
blackboard, take a piece of chalk
and draw a circle on it, then
erase the circle. Next I was told
to turn away from the imagin
ary blackboard and visualize a
table with a large vase of flow
ers on it. He had me describe
the flowers in detail. What kind
they were, their colors and how
many I saw.
Then he told me to face the
blackboard again and describe
what I saw. I told him I saw
a black surface with white
smudges on it where a chalked
circle had been erased.
The dentist said this showed
I was fairly suggestible and a
good subject for hypnosis since
most people forget they have
erased the circle.
More Relaxed
Next, he relaxed me by stages
again, told me to imagine myself
getting on an escalator and, as
he counted backwards from 10
to 1, I would descend on the
escalator, becoming more and
more relaxed.
It worked I've rarely felt so
relaxed and cheerful.
He then suggested that I
would feel no pain in my jaw.
He also said my subconscious
mind would tell the degree of
the trance I was in 1 to 10
for light trance, 10 to 20 medi
um, and 20 to 30 heavy. Seven
seemed like a good number to
me for some reason, and that's
what I told him.
