Two Oregon University stu dents turned in magnificent debuts and tre close to the UCLA astar. Dave Elstrom score 4,194 points and Steve Anderson tallied 4,092. It appeared that the sore knee which has dogged John son off and on for two years might prevent him from set tine a world mark here. Johnson sizzled in the track eventsesterday with a mark of 10.6 seconds in the 100 meter race and one of 48.7 in the 400-meter. He put the shot 50 feet 5 inches and broad jumped 23 feet 3 inches for two more top performances. But he took just one high Jump, at 5 feet 2 inches, far below his top capability. He apparently did not wish to risk reinjury to the knee. Johnson holds the listed worlcPniark of 7,385. But Rus sia's Vassily Kuznetsov scored 8,13 points last month " in Moscow. Popv Gains... friumph in Sh'icIgOr-CUPIV Rory Cal houn improved his position gs a pfttential challenger for the middleweight title with a fin over Bobby Boyd t5efinsay night, but Boyd's manfifier, Bernard Glickman, cam up 'with a novel alibi Jbr ft defeat. "They penalized Boyd to p3nfilie me," he said, point ing out that he has received unifcvorable publicity recent ly in New York's investiga tion of boxing. ' "BoyS von the fight," he ddafi. "She referee, Walter Brightmore warned Boyd about fighting on the ropes and hS) n v r warned the other guy once and he was hitting Boyd on the back of the neck, below the belt, and on the kidneys in every round:" Glickman was infuriated, particularly because of ' a knockdown, of Boyd in the 9th round. He charged that Calhoun hit Boyd with his forearm instead of the glove and that instead of receiving credit for a knockdown, he should have lost the round on a foul. "Instead of a 5-3 round for 'him, it should have been 5-4 for Boyd " he said, "and that would have given us the fight'. Boyd won seven of the 10 rounds." All officials had the bout scored for Calhoun, who won his 35th bout in 40 pro out ings. Referee Brightmore gave him a 48-42 count, Judge James McManus 47-43, and Judge John Bray, 45-44. The United Press card also was 47-43 for Calhoun. Calhoun denied he hit Boyd with his forearm in scoring his second knockdown of the bout in the 9th. "I hit him first with my glove," he said, "but it slid off a little and it might have looked like he got hit with my arm.

Vancouver dropped to third place as the Mounties lost their second straight to the red-hot Padres, 3-2. Salt Lake shaded Portland, 6-5, and Seattle squeaked by Sacramento, 2-1, in other games. A crowd of 8,858, composed largely of kids whose tickets were purchased by Phoenix business interests, watched the Giants take an early lead for the second night in a row, blow it and then come back with a late-inning splurge for the win. The Indians had dead locked it at 12-12 with a four- run rally in the ninth. Both clubs had 18 hits. Jack Dittmer, Jim King and Tom .

KUI1C0 5. 6 W - - - srnjCD - - A I I vs U hunting Southern dkegoin) By MEL REES Br MEL REESE The fishing news this past week was filled with the weather and much of it was bad. Electric, thunder, hail, and plain and fancy degrees of downpours sent many camper scurrying for tent, trailer or home. Rain in the valley made irrigation un necessary so with the gates closed and water pouring in from the higher elevations the lakes such as Fish lake filled up and made fishing very poor. Reports from Fish lake say that the lake is at its peak ca pacity and with an abundance of food the fish just aren't interested. Willow Creek re servoir reports a few fair to good catches but has slowed also. This reporter has had no luck in phoning Harriman'c Resort on Upper Klamath lake and suspects that the storm has taken the lines down. At last reports the fishing was good there but storms probably have slowed this area lo some ex lent. At least, if it doesn't slow the fishing it slows the fishermen and there aren't too many fish taken. DIAMOND HOT SPOT Hot spot for the week has been Diamond lake. Some of the most fabulous catches of big fish have been taken there. The large fish are through their spawning and are brightening rapidly so that in two or three weeks Pin Clinic At Alleys Here Friday A "Stars of Tomorrow" clinic will be held Friday af ternoon and evening at Med ford Bowling lanes.

Riverside Ave.1 & IFisDflimig they should be prime again This has had no effect how- ever on the two-year-old fish that range in the 13-16 inch class. There have been plenty of these in the deeper portions of the lake. Last Sunday Dick Lamont, Medford, Don Dillingham, Grants' Pass, and I journeyed to Diamond to investigate some very interesting reports that had to do with not being able to take fish there under 12 inches. After all, a 12-inch fish is quite a prize these days and it seemed incredible that one could fish and not hook many small fry. We arrived at the lake about 11 ajn. which is the "dog time" of day to fish- usually. In three hours time besides getting soaked by a downpour (our jackets were in the car) we had a dozen fish the smalles of which was 13 inches and the largest 20! We took off some time to lunch, loaf and dry out, then in the evening Johnny Koch, manager of the resort, "showed" us the lake and we filled our limits on flies. There must be some smaller fish in the lake but I can now testify that I never saw them nor did we hook any. In talk ing with Johnny I learned that in a short time the last year plants should start to hit and these fish will range around the 11-inch mark. At the pres ent time with the limit set at five fish over -12 inches and five fish under 12 the limit is five! you don't hook any thing under! RAINBOW HIT HARD Over the past too-many years. I have had fish hit my flies from Canada to Mexico and in all the five western, states. I have seen Canadian Rainbows walk . water on their tails, gray ling whirl and smash at a floating bug, and the cut throat of Wyoming hesitate then smash a drifting fly. I have felt the steelhead of the Rogue when they "set into" a retrieved fly but un til last Sunday I have never before felt such a savage, pole-shuddering strike as these Diamond lake rain bows can give when they hit a fly. In the evening as we drifted along I cast to a swirl made , by a feeding fish. The fly dropped down into the ring there was a moment's hesitation, then I saw a silver flash in the dark water down deep and then it came the sur face exploded and that fish went into the air taking my tapered line right off the water not once but three times and he only meas ured 14 inches! I made the statement then and I'll make it again that I know dozens of fly fisheAnen who will gladly fish two hours lo get one neve tingling, rod smashing strike such as that. DIAMOND COMING BACK Well, before I get carried away there it is right in our back yard ole Diamond is coming back in fact, it's here. I saw trollers with good catches, I saw still fishermen with long strings of fish, kids and grandmas. I don't say everybody is going to catch the limit every time, but they are there and they can be caught and Diamond may once more become the Queen of the Cascades.
