to the stadium.
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

morning.

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.

hunting and Fishing
Southern (Oregon
By MEL REES
With the trout season about
two weeks old, things have set
tled down to the usual pattern
with some limits taken here and
there but most fishing reported
on the slow side. 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

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

ROSE RETURNS TO RACE Bobby Rose will be in the thick
of contention again when hardtop auto racing begins its 1957
season at Valley View race track near Ashland. Driving' Cubby's
special, he'll have a small ' advantage over drivers this Satur
day night in that his car ran recently in Portland. A standard
program of two trophy dashes, three heat races, a semi-main and
a main race are on this week end's slate.

Plans X-ray
For Score
Cleveland (U.R) The Cleve

Score's right eye will be' post

Dr. Don Kelly of the team and

Stuttgart, Germany, today he
would like to defend his 175
pound title somewhere in Ger
many, despite the warnings of
U.S. boxing officials that if he
doesn't defend at Detroit against
Tony Anthony of New York
before July 7, his title will be
vacated.
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

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.

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
