Morning events will get under way at 10 o'clock and the after noon slate at 2:30 o'clock.

Among athletes whose show ings this season rank among the top ones in the country are Hurdler Wally Larson and Shot Putter Neil Plumley, of Med1 ford. Javelin Throwers Lary Smith of Crater and Eldon Fran cis of Medford and Pole Vaulter Phil Paquin of Grants Pass. Larson: 14.1 in the high hur dles, ranks right behind Wells of Casa Grande, Ariz., for whom a :14 clocking is reported in Track and Field news. Same is true in the low hurdles which Larson has run in :19.1 and Bradford of Shafter, Calif., has traveled in :19. Smith Third With Spear Plumley's 58-3 V in the shot put is ninth behind the top ef fort of 61-11 by Branson of Pasa dena, Calif. Smith's javelin toss of 191-9 would make him third behind the 206 by Conner of To peka. Kan. Francis follows with 185-934. .Paquin's 13-3 pole vault rates him ninth in the country. In the mile relay, an event which will not be run Saturday, Medford's Hayward relay time of 3:26 is sixth behind 3:21.6 by Wilson of Long Beach, Calif. Among members of the Medford quartet Mike Russell will be seen in the quarter-mile run and the half-mile relay this week, Lorin Christean in the sprints and relay, Pete Kershaw in the 440-yard run and 880-yard relay and Les Lingscheit in the half- mile. While a number of cindermen are outright favorites in their events, there may be some inter esting contests for the No. 2 qualifying spots from the district and in at least the javelin and high jump the outcomes are con sidered a toss up. Javelin Battle In the javelin Francis of Med ford, Lary and Gary Smith of Crater and Ken Baggerly and Larry Winmngham of Grants Pass are chief contenders. Lary Smith's 191-9 has been the best throw this season. Fred Thomas of Grants Pass has gone 6-1 Vz in the high jump but will be chal lenged by Pete Rasmussen and Bill Richey of Medford, Bob Drace of Klamath Falls, Bob Fowler of Grants Pass and Dick Davis and John Burns of Crater. Medford Coach Bob Newland reported that Christean is over a tout with the flu and that the Tornado's state half-mile champ, Bilbee Lane, has had an inflamed tendon. Prelims in the hurdles and dashes and prelims and finals in the shot put, broad jump, javelin and discus are set for Saturday morning. Medford Kiwanis club will as sist school officials with the oper ation of the meet. THAT LAKE AGAIN Webster, Mass.

ADMISSION 50 CENTS 9 A.M. ALL DAY Southern Oregon Horse Show Committee JOSEPHINE COUNTY FAIR GROUNDS GRANTS PASS SPORTS Ocky Eliason Triumphs in Oregon Open Portland (U.R) Ockv Elia son of Tacoma. Wash., was the Oregon Open golf champion to day. Eliason braved stormy skies Wednesday to shoot rounds of 71 and 74 and wind ud with a 72- hole total of 286, two under par at the. Waverly Country club course. Eliason's total was two strokes better than the even par 288 fired by Chuck Congdon, also of Tacoma, and Bob Duden of Re- dondo Beach, Calif., a two-time Oregon open king whn he lived in Portland. Duden Slip Duden lost a chance to win when he slipped to a 41 on the final nine during a downpour. Eddie Hogan, Portland, fin ished fourth at 291. Dick Yost of Portland and Bob Prall of Salem were next in line with 292's and shared low ama teur honors. Joe Steiger of Spokane and Al Feldman of Tacoma had 295's. Al Williams, Rogue Valley Country club pro, carded a 36- hole score of 156 yesterday to finish out of the money in the Oregon Open Golf tourney at Waverly Country club, Portland His total for the tourney was 73-76-78-78305. Nino Valdes Bout Winner Portland, Ore. (U.R) Fight manager Bernie Glickman threatened today to "go to court" to protest Nino Valdes victory over Johnny Holman on Wednesday night at Portland auditorium. TJhe ponderous Cuban heavy weight was awarded a unani mous decision in the nationally televised bout, but Glickmsn pleaded with commissionets that the fight was improperly scored, that Valdes repeatedly hit low, and that his manager, Bobby Gleason, had illegally "swung the ropes." The Portland commission dis allowed the protest, but fined Gleason $100 for his action Gleason screamed, "The fine is an outrage." ine commissioners nad u agree, however, that two of thi three officials had, in fact, scor ed the fight incorrectly. Wrong Point Total They used the old California "11 point" system, but came uo with 111 point totals instead of 110. The scoring, as originally a a nounced, showed Valdes the winner, 57V5-53V&, on Edd'e Volk's card, and 59-52 on Andy Crabtree's card. When the error was discover ed, the commission deducted a point from Holman's total on both cards. Referee Ralph Gru- man s score, 56V&-53V&, was al lowed to stand. Several times in the lata rounds, when both fighters were apparently tiring, Holman pin ned Valdes to the ropes neir the Cuban's corner. It was then that Gleason pulled at the rope? to discourage Holman. In another 10-rounder, Larry Vasquez, a speedy Mexican, scored a decision over Teddy Hall of Seattle. Buddy McDonald of Canada flattened Jack Frost in the sec ond round of a scheduled six rounder; Johnny Ramos of Yakima knocked out Curley Dyer of Salem in the first round. The gate was announced as $3,265. Ted Kluszewski Okehs Operation Cincinnati u.R) Ted Klu szewski, the Cincinnati Redlegs' big first baseman, pinned his hopes today on a short opera tion that might see him back in uniform in a couple of months. The ailing slugger told doc tors Wednesday to go ahead with an operation to correct a "slipped disc" in his lower spine that has hampered his running and fielding for the past 14 months.

The initial rush on the small streams has pretty well depleted them for the aver age angler. The Rogue is still producing plenty of pan-fries with flies in the darker patterns such as Mos quito, Bucktall Coachman, Pea cock Greys and Browns doing real well. Worms and eggs with small flash lures are producing as usual. The Applegate has been slow even for those fishermen who know it real well. The boys who were clobbering the cutthroat with fresh cluster eggs report that it is a "tough go" now. There should be better fishing here when the water warms up a bit. FISH LAKE PUTS OUT. Fish lake still puts out the fish for the experts. As is usual in most lakes it is either a feast or a famine depending on the skill of the angler. Willow Creek reservoir is much slower than it was for the first week. Last Sunday there were anglers by the hun dreds but not too many fish taken. The best procedure seemed to be with the old ingle egg on extremely light tackle one pound leader and No. 16 hooks. The trollers were taking fish mighty few and far between 0-5 fish per boat on the average which is pretty slow. SLIGHT SALMON RISE Salmon fishing still hasn't picked up to any great extent. There has been a slight rise in the catches but not what it should be at this time of the year. Fish ing at the mouth has been very slow although some fish are be ing taken. Good run went through there a little over a week ago but to date they are mighty scattered in this area.. RANGE BILL REVISED House Bill No. 617 which proposed that a police certifi cate be required in order to operate and maintain a shoot ing range ' has been revised somewhat. As it now reads the shooting range has been rede fined as follows: ' (1) A "shooting range" has been redefined as "any place outside the limits of any city used for the purpose of shoot ing firearms for sport, testing purposes or to acquire skill such as rifle ranges and pistol ranges, but shall not include places operated by any city, the state or federal govern ment or by individuals who Favored Ducks Eye To Cop 4th ND Track Toga in Row University of Oregon, Eugene Oregon s track and field jug gernaut unbeaten in four straight dual meet seasons, will be fav ored at Pullman Saturday to add its fourth Northern division meet championship in a row. There were' very few change., in the top times and distances as the duel meet season closed, with Oregon's Jim Bailey . and Jim Grelle taking over the lead ership in the mile and Washing ton's Larry. Pulford went back in front in the discus. In othe. changes Sam Whitney of th'i Ducks took over second place in the pole vault and Red Estes, another Duck, moved into sec ond place in the discus. Individual Races A number of outstanding in dividual races are expected to highlight the annual division meet while the Webtoots face a serious challenge in the team fight only from Washington. In the dashes Oregon's Steve An derson, Jack Morris and Jack Brown battle Gary Mapes anl Dean Derby of the Huskies while in the 440 Terry Tobacco of the Huskies has the race pret ty much to himself. The middle distances pit Ore gon's Jim Bailey against Wash ington's Dave McCulloch and Bill Moser, as well as Idaho's Dick Boyce, in the 880 and sends Bailey and Grelle against Ida ho's Ray Hatton in the mile.

UNNECESSARY While this reproposal does take some of the heat off the bill as far as the individual who wants to' "plunk" on his own property is concerned still the greatest" ob jection to it is that it is unneces sary legislation. An accident of any kind resulting from the op eration of a formal rifle or pistol range is so rare as to be almost unknown. With this thought in mind, what is the necessity of putting a further restriction on the shoot ing public unless it has as an ulterior motive. Just that to put a further re striction on us. Let's fight to keep our shoot ing free from these restrictions and not end up like our eastern neighbors who have been re stricted to the extent that al though the criminal element can obtain firearms at will, the hon est citizen is so restricted that it is almost impossible for him to obtain or possess them. Jim Norris Pestered by Toga Trouble New York (U.R) Promoter Jim Norris, beset by title troa bles in six divisions, considered today the possibility of a July outdoor heavyweight show without benefit of a champion as a sort of consolation prize Since heavyweight ruler Floyd Patterson refuses to de fend for Norris' International Boxing club, top contenders Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson and unbeaten Eddie Machen might fight in the star bout at Yankee stadium, Norris said. It was apparent today that big Jim's plans for staging a fight for the vacant featherweight title were definitely blasted. He had nearly closed for Cherif Hamia of Algeria and Hogan (Kid) Bassey of Nigeria to battle for the 126-pound . crown at Syracuse, N.Y., June 7. But Wednesday he was informed that Hamia had flown from Paris to Algiers and would be unable to keep the Syracuse date. And middleweight champion Sugar Ray Robinson told Nor ris his proposed title defense against welter ruler Carmen Ba- silio in July must be delayed until September, "because I will not risk a collapse in the mid' summer heat." Adding to the Norris woes, light heavyweight champion Archie Moore announced at Opportunity ton is the favorite in the twj mile, although Oregon's Mark Robbms may give him a fight. Webfoot Doug Basham and Husky Dean Singer renew the'.r old .battle in the high hurdles and Basham teams with Ander son and Morris against ' Singe and Mike McCluskey in the lows. Pulford is a heavy favor ite in the weights, Cliff LaBoun ty is the pole vault favorite and Wayne Moss tops the high jump.

Specialist Plans X-ray For Score Cleveland (U.R) The Cleve land Indians have recalled left handed ptchers Bud Daley and Hank Aquirre from their San Diego farm club in the Pacific Coast league to take over for the injured Herb Score. Cleveland (U.R) X-ray ex amination of Indian pitcher Herb Score's right eye will be' post poned "for a day or two," ac cording to the team physician and eye specialist. Dr. Don Kelly of the team and Dr. Charles I. Thomas, the eye specialist, said this decision should not be interpreted either optimistically or pessimistically. "Herb Score's condition is slightly improved," the two phy sicians said.

When the June 7th Hamia Bassey feather title fight for Syracuse evaporated, Norris thought he might replace it on TV-radio with the already sign ed Joe Brown-Orlando Zulueta lightweight championship bout in Denver. But Denver promoter Joe Dupler says Brown and Zu lueta were promised him for June 19, and that's when he wants it. Accordingly, Norris and match maker Billy Brown were striv ing desperately today to arrange a June 7th match for the spon sors who want "a big one" in order to sell a flock of razors and blades before Fathers Day on June 16. And Norris seemed to be get ting a close shave from all angles. A LEVU - Yep you can get genuine LAWN-BOY, best ef ill pewer nrawtrs, with these and other great LAWN-BOY features for only $69.95.

The hemorrhage in the right eyeball is being absorbed as expected." "It is still far too early to pre dict whether the eye will or will not be saved," the Cleveland spe cialist said. "The exact extent of damage to the eye will not be known for a day or two and pos sibly for even longer." The 23-year-old Score, felled Tuesday night by a line drive off the bat of Gil McDougald in the first inning of the Inidans' game with the New Yirk Yankees, was reported to have spent a-fair-ly comfortable night. Thomas prescribed "complete rest and quiet" and has Score in a com pletely darkened room at Lake side Hospital. Thomas pointed out that he may even delay the x-rays if he feels Score should have another day of complete rest. The horror over one of the most serious accidents in base ball history gave way somewhat to optimism Wednesday when Thomas revealed that Score is able to see out of the eye. He pointed out that fact "is encour aging" but not conclusive. "Fortunately, the ball struck him flush," Thomas said, "It caught the top of his eyebrow bone, his cheekbone and his nose. The nose was fractured. Appar ently the bone structure of his face absorbed most of the impact that would have destroyed the eye. There is no brain injury. He also suffered a cut on the right eyelid and a bruised right cheekbone." Score's teammates and the Yankees were still in a state of shock Wednesday with McDou gald virtually inconsolable. The Yankee inf ielder, however, with drew his statement that he would quit the game if Score lost his sight after the Cleveland pitcher sent him a message from the hospital room "not to worry about it." Cleveland General Manager Hank Greenberg reported a flood of telegrams encouraging Score in his battle were pouring into the hospital. A Long Beach, Calif., man even offered one of his eyes but the offer was not considered seriously. . I CUnillG For Only models give you a full 18" cut with no for just a few dollars more.

DeJohn said he and his part- ner, Joe Netro, were "waiting for Robinson to make up his mind." DeJohn said St. Paul Promoter Jack Raleigh had guaranteed $110,000 for a Basilio-Flanagan title fight in St. Paul in August. "We haven't accepted this yet but we are considering it," De John said.
