Washington ' (UPD Sen.
Richard L. Neuberger (D
Ore.) announced yesterday
that he has urged the regional
federal forester in Oregon to
develop an . emergency sales
program for the Siskiyou Na
tional forest to meet previous
ly announced timber sale
goals.
The Senator said the rec
ommendation came as a result
of a conference with a dele
gation of southern Oregon
lumbermen and officials of
the Western Forest Industries
association. . .
He said some southern Ore
gon lumber operations face
closure this winter due to a
lack of logs and have suggest
ed a series of sales in the cate
gory of five million board feet
or less on an emergency basis
to help alleviate the situation.

ing a straw cap and armed
with a .38 caliber revolver
robbed a clerk and an assist
ant manager at the Franklin
and Moss Street Safeway
store here of "about S2.000"
Friday night, police said.
Police Chief Vera Hill said
a dragnet was out in the area
and roadblocks set up for the
bandit. The robbery occurred

light in 1954.
Bob Atkinson, Portland,
three times champ in the

It is hoped that he'll be one
of those applying his first
18-hoIe score on the Colum
bia - Edgewater course as a
qualifying round for the Med
ford tournament. Rogue Val
ley officials are allowing the
CE scores as a means of re
solving a conflict for some of
the better divoters in the
state.
..Atkinson would- lend pres

won the Oregon Golf associa
tion match play crown this
summer. Entry of Keith Gub
rud, Eugene, runner-up in the
Oregon Coast tourney 'and to
Atkinson in the OGA is listed

top contender from Universi
ty of Oregon and Columbia

is remembered for his hole-in-one
in the 1957 tournament.

men's 1957 medalist, . has
signed for the 1958 event. He
had a 66 on the RVCC layout

tenders from Rogue Valley

titlist for the past two years,
and Jim Sheldon, men's di
vision player, who was laid

pite a bogey, in a tour of the
course last week.
Eddie Simmons, Medford,
six times men's champ in the
SO, reportedly has not re
covered sufficiently from
back surgery, to play in the
tournament. He will head the
starting committee for the
meet.
Men and women of RVCC
are to qualify from Aug. 23
through 26. Senior rounds are
set for Aug. 26 and out-of-town
men and women have
their qualification play on
Aug. 27. Matches open on

TURF EXPERT DUE
Bill Benneyfield, San Fran
cisco, turf expert for the
United States Golf associa
tion, will arrive here Mon
day on one of his semi-annual
visits and will make
recommendations on means
to keep the RVCC greens and
fairways in the best possible
shape for the big holiday
week end tourney.
Hot, humid weather this
summer has allowed disease
to make headway in grasses
of Northwest courses but
Rogue Valley has suffered
less than the majority of the
links. A regular greens at the
Medford layout are in play
and except for a few spotty
conditions are considered to
be in excellent shape.

Dodgers Eye
Fourth Spot
In League
Los Angeles (UPD The
partially-crippled Los Angeles
Dodgers, out of the second di
vision for the first time since
April hope to take over un
disputed possession of fourth
place in a doubleheader with
the St. Louis Cards today.
The Dodgers earned a tie
for fourth Friday night with
twin-killing over the same
Cards 4-3 in 11 innings and
5-3.
Los Angeles, with four
straight home wins, sends
Sandy Koufax (9-5) and Dan
ny McDevitt (1-5) or Fred
Kipp (5-4) against Nelson
Chittum (0-0) and Sam Jones
(10-8) of the Cards.
It will be the final appear
ance of the year for the Cards
in the Coliseum.
A crowd of 27,738 saw the
Friday twi-niter, in which
Carl Furillo suffered a pulled
leg muscle, but not before he
contributed a two-r,un homer

their work cut out for them
against such teams as Okla
homa, Miami, Washington
State, Oregon State and Stan
ford. Oklahoma, always a nation
al power, ranked fifth nation
ally in rushing last year while
Miami was 10th. In passing
Washington State was second
in the nation and the ace Cou
gar quarterback, Bob New
man, not only was the leading
total offense leader, but also
ranked second in individual
passing. The Indians and the
Beavers ranked one-two in
the conference in offense and
are raed serious threats again
this fall.
In the .last five years Ore
gon has been first in total de
fense twice, second another
two years and slipped to
fourth only once. The UCLA
Bruins are the closest chal
lengers to the Webfoots, hav
ing wound up first twice, and
second, third and fourth one
years each in the last five.
The Webfoot pass defense
has been particularly tough,
with the Oregon totals being
best in the league three of the
seasons . since 1952 and this
will be particularly important
against the Cougars and the
Indians.
The importance of the de
fense to the Webfoot success
last fall was typified by the
fact that only two teams, WSC
and Stanford, scored more
than two touchdowns in the
11 games played. It was much
the same in 1956, too, as the
opposition averaged only 10.2
points per game.

youth was arrested here
Thursday for representing
himself as a doctor and order

a barbiturate.
Barry Lee Barnum of Port

pending hearing for -violation
of the state uniform narcotics
act.

name. The druggist checked
back with the name given
him and then called agents of
the state board of Pharmacy
and police.
Secretary of the Oregon
Board of Pharmacy said the
youth s actions were indica
tive of a teen-age fad of
drinking the cough medicine
for a narcotics "kick" similar
to that derived from stronger
drugs like heom and opium.
MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Sunday, August 17, 1958
UCLA Grid Responsibility
May Be Placed in Hands
Of Sanders' Assistants
Los Angeles (UPD UCLA
officials showed supreme con
fidence today in Henry (Red)
Sanders' ability as an organ
izer as well as a coach 'when
they put the responsibility for
one of the nation's major foot
ball teams in the hands of his
assistants for 1958.
Sanders, 53, a master of the
single wing, died of a heart
attack in a Los Angeles hotel
room Thursday. An autopsy
showed he had an enlarged,
"athlete's" heart and that the
immediate cause of death was
a small hemorrhage in a dis
eased segment of a coronary
artery. i
Services Monday -
Sanders' body lay in state
today with funeral services
here on Monday afternoon at
2 p.m. His body will be re
turned to Nashville, Tenn., for
services and burial Tuesday.
UCLA Athletic Director
Wilbur Johns said in Chicago
that he would recommend the
present coaching staff direct
the Bruins this season, with
out hiring a new head coach
to succeed Sanders.
Johns said one of the things
that made Sanders a great
coach was "his ability to
gather capable assistants, on
his staff and his development
cf a spirit of loyalty and work
ing unity among the staff
working for the best interests
of the individual team mem
bers.': Since George Dickerson is
senior assistant, it is pre
sumed that he will assume the
leadership of the well-organized
staff which Sanders had
used to build one of the na
tion's finest football teams.
Inside Track
If successful, Dickerson
would have the inside track
when a new head coach is
chosen for 1959, sources cJwSe
to the scene here said. '
Sanders' UCLA teamy won
66, lost 19 and tied one over
nine years.
Active pallbearers for the
services here Monday will be
members of his staff Dick
erson, William Barnes, John
Johnson, Herbert B. Brackett,
Sam" .Boghosian and Robert
Bergdahl. Honorary bearers
will include Tom Prothro,
Oregon State coach; Jim My
ers, head coach at Texas
A & M, and Ray Nagel, new
Utah head coach. All former
ly were Sanders' assistants.
