8 TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Buck, Butler, DeVoe Head Tuesday Qualifying In So Golf; 1st Matches Thursday Dr. Robert Buck and Sue De Voe set the pace yesterday for home course qualifiers with championship flight aspirations in the men's and women's divis ions of the Southern Oregon Golf tournament. Larry Butler, also of the home links, headed Tuesday qualifying play among senior class entrants. The 29th annual champion ships at Medford's popular Rogue Valley Country club were underway full scale today with qualifying rounds by out-of-town men and women. Match play be gins on Thursday. Dr. Buck, with a one-under-par 71 card, produced the only tournament score yesterday bet ter than the Rogutfe Valley stand ard of 72 strokes for men. No one equalled par but Butler was just one over with his 73. Miss DeVoe's round of 83 compares to women's par of 76. Scores ran generally high yes terday. In the men's division Phil Getchell, 1955 medalist and 1954 runner-up for the title, fol lowed Buck with a 74. Lynn Creason, Harrisburg, Pa., 1956 finalist and one of a number of out-of-towners qualifying yester day, recorded a 75. Five Hare 76's Turning in 76 counts were Warren Deakins Jr., Eddie Sim mons, Bob Rasmussen, Alan Holmes and Jim Sheldon. Bill Ritchie, Crescent City, Calif., Clayton Lewis, Norm Hillyer and George Harrington, Phoenix, Ariz., had 78s. Harrington, 1950 champ and former RVCC man ager, stayed in the running with a 36 on the back nine after a five over par 42 going out. Harry Millette, Lee Flink and .Charley Brown tabulated 79s while Dr. Dave Boals, Ed Hall and Tony Monroe had 80s. Mrs. Helen Davies, like Miss DeVoe a past champ, qualified with an 86. Mrs. Maxine Ham mond had an 89 and Mrs. Helen Cavilli, King City, Calif., a 90. The scoreboard showed Medford Ingram, Salem, who qualified last Sunday, trailing Butler in seniors with a 78. Marvin Clark had a 79 and Ted Porterfield an 82. Eighty-eight men's division players were listed on the score board last night along with 39 senior men and 26 women. There will be matches in all flights on Thursday with the men's ninth, 10th and 11th and the women's eighth having to play at Oak Knoll in Ashland rather than at Rogue Valley. Finals In the tournament will be on Monday, Sept. 2, Labor day, with 36 holes in men's and women's championship flights and 18 in all others. Kabler Unlikely It appeared unlikely this morning that Carole Joe Kabler, Sutherlin. will be on hand Thurs day to defend her title. Miss De Voe and Mrs. Davies then would be the only past champs in their field. Former men's champions are Bob Atkinson and Dom Provost Jr., Portland, Simmons' and Har rington. The senior division for men over 50 years of age is new this year. At least one sub-par practice round was reported yesterMay with Vern Perry, Portland, stroking a 71. Tourney committees and the country club management again stressed that the public is wel come to watch the Southern Ore gon action. There is no charge to join the galleries of spectators following the contestants. Washington Ranked High By Sanders Los Angeles im Coach Henry (Red) Sanders says that he wouldn't be surprised Hf Washington came up with the best football team in the ' Pa cific Coast conference this sea son. However, Sanders was care ful Tuesday at e Los Angeles Ad club meeting not to say the Huskies would win the champ ionship. Washington, UCLA and the University of Southern Cali fornia have been deprived of that privilege by the PCC for allowing athletes to accept "under-the-table" financial aid. "Teams in the Northwest are real good," Sanders said. "The Huskies looked good last year and most of their star backs will be in there punching this year. It will be hard to beat them." Sanders also rated Oregon, California and the University of Southern California as top con tenders. As always, the Bruins coach was modest about the chances of UCLA. He refused to even say where he thought his UCLA squad would end up in the conference standings. S- - f. ...

Mounties five games behind San Francisco, which glided along toward the pennant with, a 5-0 shutout over Sacramento. In the first contest Vancouver overtook Los Angeles in the fourth frame to actually lead by one tally. But Monty reliefer loser Paul Trout and his team mates put on a display of bum fielding which permitted the ty ing and winning runs. The sec ond game was a shambles. Only Four Hits Righthander Babe Birrer start ed and won for Los Angeles, giv ing up only four hits. Vancouver scored its lone tally in the open ing frame on three singles, then it was Birrer and the Angels all the way with two runs each in the third, fourth and fifth frames. In other contests, Seattle downed Portland 2-1 to even that series 2-2, while Hollywood whipped San Diego 9-6. In contrast to the upset in Van couver, the Seals did pretty much as expected and even better behind the three hit pitching of winner Bob Chak ales. Tom Umphlett got the first score of the game, a homer over left field, and catcher Haywood Sullivan got the second when he walked and scored on a sac rifice. In the third fram;, Grady Hat ton blasted out his third homer of the year with Umphlett on base, and Sullivan again walked. This time Bill Renna sacrificed him home. Venerable Joe Stanka lost the game and is 9-10 for the season. Chakales is 3-1. Stars Shine Hollywood's . win gave the Stars a 2-0 edge in their series with San Diego. Hollywood took an early lead but the Pads sprang forth with two runs in the fourth and three in the fifth mainly on homers by Earl Averill and Bill Ward to go ahead 6-2. Then in the sixth, the Stars unloaded for five tallies and -that, coupled with Bill Caus ion's two run homer in the sev enth, spelled the Padre defeat. Portland led off with a run in the first when Solly Drake heat out a bunt and was brought home on a single by Luis Mar quez. However, Seattle tied it up in the second on an unearned run and collected the game win ner when winning hurler Marion Frianco singled, stole second and reached home plate on another single by Eddie Basinski.

WILL BE Sport Parade By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer Cape Haitian, Haiti (IP! I've got news today for jockey Eddie Arcaro and mile champion Der ek Ibbotson. High in the coffee and ba nana sprinkled mountains of northern Haiti, I have just made the blis tering ac quaintance of horse that even Arcaro could not ride. And part of the parlay was a pony boy who can run so fast and so long that he'd make the demon Derek look like a tur tle with the gout. You'd have to see both of 'em to believe it, yet these two must rank as all-time greats in the improvement of anybody's breed. I've got to think that even Ben Hur would have backed off from this nag on which they boosted me to ride up to Henry Chris tophe's ancient citadel, a fort some 3,000 feet up on the crest of a mountain. Shades of Black Beauty The horse is a moth-eaten hay burner about two hands higher than a Maltese kitten. In the stud book ijt would have to read "by Army tank out of Mountain Goat." I sneered when I sat down to ride, figuring I'd wind up YAH? V ! w Oscar Fralev ' ' MONDAY -. By OSCAR FRALEY Sports Writer United Press carrying this jackrabbit, but the sneer went along with where I sit down and don't tell me tales about Man O' War. This one had to be the gamest cuss since Black Beauty. For three hours he toted my limp carcass up a winding, rock strewn path which, in spots,"was like the wall of a stucco house. So Arcaro can fall about six feet. One misstep on those loose rocks and it would have been what seemed like six miles straight down. My gallant steed, whose name as near as I could make out was French for heliotrope, had no such odor, but while he kicked a few rocks over the edge here and there the fact that I'm able to wri;e this oh a fine old Haitian mantle piece is proof that he was. sure-footed. Yet even more amazing to a man who surely will never ride again and, possibly, may never be able to walk, was the running feats of the pony boy. He was a 15-year-old about half as big as a midget but with a smile twice as large as the mountain, who in formed me in the cape's French pateis that his name was An thony and everything was "ho kay, fine." Ran All The Way His job was to boost the un fortunate rider on and off the pony, switch it into high gear when it slowed down for a mere 135-degree grade and gallop on ahead in his bare feet just to let you know that all was "hokay, fine." This kid never stopped running until he reached the top of that 3,000-foot mountain and, had you gone over the edge, you just knew that he'd be waiting at the bottom with a mattress to cushion your fall. -The last time I saw him, as two hastily!-summoned attend ants carried me to a hot tub, Anthony was singing the faintly recognizable tune of "On Brave Old Army Team," which I taught him before we started, and he was running up the mountain again with another victim. Heli otrope was still cantering along behind him and take it from aie, if they're not All-Americas, they're sure as shooting All Haitians. Arcaro and Ibbotson, hugh! They're a couple of overpaid am ateurs. ftrtsfone STORES 214 S. Riverside Ph. SP 2-71 19 u G " mm Fm n u u u u TAIL ID
