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.

By JIM HEALY
United Press Sports Writer
And then there are the Angels.
With only three and a half games

desperately to catch Pacific
Coast league leading San Fran

over Pete Rademacher.
Also in the heavyweight divi
sion, the magazine moved Zora

er's slot behind Eddie Machen,
as Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson
dropped from No. 2 to No. 3 as
a result of his defeat by Patter

In the middleweight class,
Rory Calhoun moved up from
fifth to third, while Joey Giam-
bra dropped from third to fifth.

doubles championship off to Au

for New York with ' covetous
eyes on the U. S. singles title.
"We played the game we

them," said the victorious young
Aussies after they defeated the
Wimbledon champions Budge
Patty and Gardnar Mulloy, 4-6,
6-3, 9-7, 6-3, in a twice-postponed
final Tuesday at the Longwood

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.

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

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
