Going into action with Cra ter this afternoon, the Peli cans of Klamath had a mark of no wins and two losses while Medford was one and Northern Division Track, Field Leaders Keep Hold of Positions University of Oregon, Eu gene All of the leaders in the Northern Division track and field events held their places this week as the five teams go into the third week of the conference season. Two of the top men, Jack Burg of Oregon in the pole vault and Dick Rubsenser of Washington State in the jave lin, bettered their previous best efforts in the meet be tween the two teams last week.

While pre-tournament fa vorite Ken Venturi took a very ordinary par-72 Thurs day, look what some of the other boys did in this wager ing mecca: Casper, who sold in the $266,000 Calcutta Pool for $19,000, fired a seven-under- par 33-32 65. Stranahan, the richest man in golf who brought a meagre $8,000 in the betting marts, had a 32-34 66.

Strong klm SSKl v Wmmm Significant Number of Pacific Flyway Birds Nesting in Asia Tulelake Sixteen bird band return reports recently sent in by the USSR Academy of Sciences at Moscow has indicated that a significant number of Pacific flyway waterfowl nest in Asia. This information has just been forwarded to Tu!e Lake Ref uge Manager Thomas C. Horn by the bird banding office of the bureau of sport fisheries and wildlife. One pintail duck banded at Tule Lake National Wildlife refuge on Oct. 8, 1949, was killed May 26, 1956, near Milkovo on the Kamchatka Peninsula. This is more than 4,000 miles from Tule lake. Two pintails banded at Tule lake on Aug. 13, 1955, were killed in May and July of 1956, near Anadyr on the Southwest Siberian coast 430 miles west of the west tip of Alaska. 10.000 Mile Range Band returns from pintails wintering in Brazil, 6,000 miles south and east of Tule lake are not uncommon. This gives the pintails using Tule lake a 10,000 mile range from northwest to southeast. Of ten snow geese banded at Tule lake between 1952 and 1957, three were killed in 1956 and seven in 1957. These were killed on Wrangel island 500 miles northwest of the west tip of Alaska and 450 miles off the north coast of Siberia. This is more than 3,000 miles from Tule lake. Three lesser snow geese banded at Tule lake in late 1.35 - 1.59 oil filters fil I Iff f4iMf$J Automatically' and continu ously filters and strains engine oil. October, one each in 1954, 1955 and 1956, were killed near Cape Schmidt in Chuk otak county, on the north Si berian coast well inside the Arctic Circle in early June of 1956 and late March and late May of 1957. Banding operations on the refuge is a cooperative pro ject of the California fish and game department and the fish and wildlife service. Much has been learned of the nest ing area and migration routes of wild birds, including water fowl, through this operation.
