EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) Hamlin Paces Southern Oregon Junior Golf Meet; Yingst Scores Hole-in-One Tom Hamlin and Mike Mon roe, Medford, and Peter Geer sten, Eugene, were the pace set ters and John Yingst, Crescent City, Calif., provided the high light of the day with a hole-in-one Monday in the opening round of the Southern Oregon Junior Golf championships at Rogue Valley Country club. Hamlin recorded a one over part 34-3973 to lead the en tire field of 76 boys and girls as well as the junior division.

Tourna ment begins Wednesday with a new format, but with the same old pros rated as the ones to beat. Although they lowered the bars to let in their most prom ising newcomers, it still was the established players like Doug Ford and Sammy Snead In the favored roles. The early line from the odds makers, a day before the five day match play grind starts, had Ford favored at 5-1. But right behind him came Snead, defend ing champion Jackie Burke and Walter Burkemo, who won it in 1953. at 10-1. Oldtimeri Farorad There weren't any of the new comers in the list of favorites. For behind those four came Ted Kroll, who lost to Burke in last year's finals and who holds the present world's champion ship, and veterans Ed Furgol, the 1954 U.S. Open champion, and former runner-up Johnny Palmer at 15-1. U.S. Open cham pion Dick Mayer was no better Lambert-Hammond Team Takes Mixed Two-Ball Links Laurels Deane Lambert and Mrs. Max ine Hammond carded a 79 low gross on Sunday to lead a field of 31 pairs in the mixed two-ball golf tournament at Rogue Valley Country club. .

Matches to be completed this week in the championship brack et feature eisht of the standout linksmen of RVCC. In one of the tussles Harry Millette opposes Eddie Simmons, tx-state champ and longtime star of the local course. D. C. Boats and Alan Holmes collide in another quarter-final. Young Tom Hamlin, Medford high div- than a 20-1 shot along with Chick Harbert, another former PGA winner, and Dow Finster wald. Finsterwald is one of those who got in the tournament be cause the PGA lowered its bars. It used to be that no pro could compete in this tournament un less he had been a PGA mem ber for five years. But because of declining attendance, and golfers make their living on gate receipts, the PGA voted to allow its most promising young sters to compete on special invi tation. Littler Included That still left on the sidelines such promising newcomers as George Bayer, winner of last week's Canadian Open. Even Gene Littler, who would not have' been eligible for two more years, got in on a pass when veteran Jimmy Clark of Studio City, Calif., withdrew because of illness and Littler was substituted Monday. That put Billy Casper of Chula Vista, Calif., as the next alternate and Bayer was behind him. It did not seem likely that there would be any more withdrawals before play starts. MacLeod was low net with 65 and Charles Michelson and Al Althens knotted for second low with 68s. Dunlevy won blind bogey with an 82 net. Saints Beat Methodists With 11-8 Triumph.

Vote System Set For International Montreal OB The Interna tional league . will employ a unique voting system in select ing its 1956 All-Star team, which will meet the Brooklyn Dodgers here Aug. 19. In an obvious attempt to avoid a landslide vote for players on a single team, League President Frank Shaughnessy announced today the "city unit" system of voting will be used. Under this plan, each league city will select a team based on the balloting of fans. The play ers selected will receive one vote from each city. Thus, a unanimous nominee will wind up with eight votes. ( Pee Wee Bob Babica. Eureka. Calif.. 43-45 88; Richie Knight. Medford. 48-47 89: Doug Olson.

SP 2-4107 Jon Arnett To Appear At Portland Portland (Special) "Before this fellow is through, he'll take his place with Steve Van Buren Red Grange, Beattie Feathers, Ollie Matson and Hugh McElhen- ny among the greatest runners in the history of the league." That's the word circulating around the National Football League about the exciting new rookie prospect of the Los An geles Rams, Jon Arnett, who al ready has the stamp of greatness on him. Arnett was the Rams' first draft choice last year and the first choice in the league follow ing the bonus pick. He will make his pro debut this year and one of his first appearances will be when the Rams play the Chicago Cardinals at Multnomah stadi urn Saturday night, Aug. 31. The stadium turf will not be unfamiliar to this flashy former USC All-American, for he per sonally ruined a good Oregon team in 1954 when he scored all 28 points for the Trojans four touchdowns and four extra points. ' Arnett was one of the greatest open-field runners in USC his tory and ranks second among ail Trojan ball carriers, although his playing time in his senior year was restricted to five games by Coast conference edict. Nevertheless, he gained 674 yards in 99 carries, boosting his three-year total to 1898 yards. Exceptional speed coupled with amazing balance are the factors which contribute to Arnett's ability to make potential tack lers miss the target. His 1956 record indicates his ereat consistency as a ball car rier. He gained 81 yards against Texas, 88 yards against Oregon State. 182 against Wisconsin 157 against Wasmngton ana 11 against Stanford. In the 1955 Hose Bowl game against Ohio State he picked up 123 vards in 9 carries for a fan ulous average of 12.5 a try. He made most All-American teams that year. Arnett was also an outstand ing broad jumper on the USC track team and ran a 9.9 lap in the 400-yard relay. Arnett will add strength to an already powerful group of Ram runners which includes Tank Younger, Joe Marconi Rqn Waller and Tommy Wilson. The game between the Rams and Cardinals is eliciting wide interest, as indicated by the ad vance ticket sale reported by Oregon Sports Attractions. Re served seats are available by mail throughout OSA headquar ters, 711 Exchange building. Match Play Begins Today Omaha.Neb. OP) Match play in the 1957 Women's Western Amateur Golf Tournament be gan today with 32 contestants in the championship flight. The favorite in the week-long tourney is Barbara Romack Por ter, Sacramento, Calif., who set a record for the Omaha Country Club course Monday with a three under par 70 in the quali fying round.

Miss Quast is not competing in this tourney, how ever, because of illness. Mrs. Porter leads off the title flight today against Mrs. Betty Kirby, Akron, Ohio, who quali fied with an 80. The program consists of 18 holes of match daily through Friday, withfthe final 36 holes to be played Saturday.

California May Lose Games If Chinese Not Washington IIP) The State department has under 'active consideration" a request that Red Chinese athletes be allowed to participate in the 1960 Olym pic Winter games in California. Arrangements for the 1960 games have been complicated by U.S. restrictions on American travel to Communist countries and on admission of persons from those countries to the U.S California may lose the Win ter games, already officially awarded to Squaw Valley, un less the bars are lowered for Red Chinese athletes.
