Southern Oregon's glittering
array of Class A-l high school
track and field talent makes its
final appearance in aggregate
this season in its own area Sat
urday in what could be the big
gest record busting session in
history for this district of the
state. '
The five big schools of Dis
trict 6 A-l send their athletes
in quest of berth for the state
championship meeting May 17
and 18 in Corvallis. Klamath
Falls, Grants Pass, Crater, Ash
land and host Medford are
matched at the local prep sta
dium. While state meet qualifi
cation will be the main purpose,
the district team championship
will be another big issue.
Preliminaires and finals ' in
four field events and prelims
in the 100 and 220-yard dashes
and the hurdles are scheduled
for morning. Events start at
10 a.m. Afternoon competition
opens at 2:30 o'clock with the
first of the races at 3 o'clock.
There will be a charge for ad
mission to afternoon contests.
The meet is the last prep track
affair at the Medford stadium
this season.
Stale TitliiU
Four state champions will be
bidding tomorrow for the priv
ilege of returning to Corvallis
to defend their laurels! They
are Phil Paquin, Grants Pass
pole vaulter, and. Jerry Close,
broad jumper, Wally Larson,
hurdler, and Bilbee Lane, half
miler, all of Medford. Eldon
Francis, Medford, Oregon jave
line champ in 1955, will try
against stiff opposition to re
gain the district title and the
state honors he lost last year.
Given good weather and with
it a fast track, chance that dis
trict records will tumble is tre
mendous. No less than six dis
trict and five state marks have
been bettered by A-l thinclads
in this area. Top performances
in some of the other events are
close to district records.
Paquin has beaten the state
mark and he and his GP team
mates, Stan Lewman and Mike
Sparlin all have exceeded the
district standard in the pole
vault. Wally Larson, Medford, has
better than state and district
record times in the high and low
hurdles. Neil Plumley, Medford,
has exceeded the state and dis
trict standards in the shot put.
The Medford relay combine of
Lorin Christean, Mike Russell,
Pete Kershaw and Larson have
a couple of record bettering
runs. Lane has bettered the dis
trict best in the 880-yard run.
Ties State Record
Christean has tied the state
mark and come close to the dis
trict records in the 100 and 220,
Russell has pressed the standards
in the quarter-mile. Close has
threatened the boa jump mark,
Lary Smith, Crater, the javelin
record and Fred Thomas, Grants
Pass,' the high jump standard of
the district.
It will be the final appearance
on the local track of Medford
high thinclads under the. inspir
ation coaching and leadership of
Bob Newland, who becomes vice
principal at North Eugene High
school next fall. The Black Tor
nado' will be roaring to win not
only the district crown but to
qualify sufficiently strong to
present Newland with an un
precedented fifth consecutive
state crown.
Eyes of prep cinder followers
elsewhere in Oregon will be on
the meet since it involves the
state champion and another of
the state's strongest contenders.
Medford is the favorite tomor
row but Grants Pass possessed

SEEKS RETURN TRIP Jerry Close, above, who won the
state A-l broad jump title for Medford last spring, will aim
for a return berth in the Oregon prep meet when he competes
at the Medford stadium Saturday in the District 6 elimina
tions. Close has leaped 22 feet 6 inches this year and is with
in reach of the district mark, 22-8V4 and the state record 22-10.
