Souchalc
Leads At
54 Holes
San Diego, CalLt.-aTB-Ham-handed
Mike Souchak, play
ing a dainty game around the
greens, forged into the 54
hole lead in the $20,000 San
Diego Open golf tournament
Saturday as he shot a three-under-par
69 for a three-day
total of 202.
Hitting only one birdie on
the par-five holes, where hij
tremendous power is sup
posed to give him an edge,
Souchak nevertheless came
in with two birdies to take
a one-stroke lead over Bob
Rosburg of Palo Alto, Calif.,
who had a 203 total after
his 10-foot putt for a tie hung
on the lip of the 18th hole;
and Dave Ragan, Chattanoo
ga, Tenn., who had a fine 66
today.
While Doug Sanders, the
leader at the halfway mark,
faded to a fat 73 and a 205
total, Souchak was living up
to advance predictions that
the long hitters would take
this course apart. He now has
rounds of 65, 68 and 69.
Rosburg has 68-66-69 and
Ragan 69-68-66.
"I played well out there
today," said Souchak. "But
can you imagine getting only
one birdie on those easy par
five holes? I three-putt the
next one, hit a trap on an
other and chipped badly on
still another.
Takes Two Birdies
- "But I did some nice work
around the' greens and came
up with an eight-footer for a
birdie on the 10th and a 10
f ooter for another bird on the
13th."
, Muscular Mike's nines were
J4-35.
Rosburg was hot through
the first 15 holes getting
down putts from 12 and 15
feet on the last nine, although
he took a bogie six on the
10th when he took three on
Pels Nudge Crater
57-54 in Hoop Tilt
Central Point Fans had
various versions of the con
fused final moments of the
Crater high - Klamath Falls
Southern Oregon conference
basketball game here Friday
night.
But a couple of things were
certain at the final buzzer of
the rough- spirited hectic
struggle Klamath was in
front on the scoreboard and
in the scorebook 57 to 54 and
Crater's Comets had played
their finest game of the sea
son.
What added the greatest din
to the pandemonium was a
field goal swish by the Com
et's Chuck Turner in the final
minute of the fracas. The shot
was diallowed after officials'
deliberation because of a foul
the edge of the green. He had
nines of 33-36.
Ragan had an eagle in his
collection, getting home in
two on the par-five tMrd hole
and sinking the long putts.
He finished off the fine round
with a birdie on the last
hole, a 210-yard part-three,
by rolling in one from eight
feet.
Joe Campbell, the bride
groom, from Knoxville, Tenn.,
had a fine rbund of 68s for
204. At 205 Hiere was a four
way tie between Marty Fur-
gol, Lemont, 111.; Bill Casper,
Apple Valley, Calif.; Bo Win-
uiger, Odessa, Tex., and San
ders.
Furgol had the best round
of the day, a 64-one stroke
off the course record. He was
eight under par after 12
holes, then parred in the rest
of the way.
At 206 came Jackie Burke,
Houston, Tex., with a 67 to
day, and Bob Duden, Oswego,
Ore., the first-day co-leader,
who had a 70.
Comet Grapplers Defeat
Ashland Aggregation 41-9
Central Point-Crater high
wrestlers chalked up an over
whelming 41 to 9 victory over
Ashland here Friday.'
It was the second win of
the season for the Comets
over the Grizzlies. Margin
was closer in the earlier
meeting.
Crater won eight of the 12
counting matches and drew
In three others. Only Ashland
win was -Art Riser's pin of
lighter Howard Misner in the
unlimited class."
A tougher assignment
comes up for the Comets on
Tuesday, when they go to
Grants Pass.

tooted on Loyal Higinbotham
before the balj was cast. If the
bucket had counted, Crater
would have gone ahead 56 to
55. Instead, all-stater Bob Pet
erson of Klamath Falls put
in two free throws to bring
the mix to its final standing.
Cratesr Applies Press
Crater with a fiery full
pressing game came from 11
points back in the last six
minutes of the hassle to al
most upset the Pelicans. Klam
ath entered the final stanza
ahead 41 to 33 and built its
advantage to 48 to 37 before
the Comets launched their up
ward climb, headed by the
gunning of Allen.
Klamath was on the long
end of 11 to 9 at the quarter
and 28 to 27 at the half. But
Crater jumped to a 29 to 28
count as the second half start
ed and the game was knotted
at 32-all before the Pels
moved to their third quarter
command.
Work of Chuck Turner,
John Burns and Wayne Allen
under the backboards against
the taller Pels served to keep
the Comets in the game. Turn
er cleared the board of re
bounds on 15 occasions.
Peterson rolled in 27 chalk
ers for KF and was the only
member of his crew to hit in
double figures. Allen had 13
points, Burns 11 and Turner
10 for the Comets.

1078 Court St.
Military academy to succeed
Earl (Red) Blaik.
The 34-year-old Hall, who
l as been Blaik's No. 1 assist
ant for the past three seasjns,
thus becomes one of the
youngest head coaches evei
put in charge of the Cadets.
Hall, the unanimous choice
of the five-man athletic board
at West Point, signed a three-
year contract at an undis
closed salary. The board had
interviewed candidates week-
long. The appointment was
announced by Lt. Gen. Garri
son H (Gar) Davidson, super
intendents at the academy.
Hall said he would retain
Blaik's staff of assistants, in
cluding Tom Harp, Charles
Gottfried, Bill Gunlock and
Frank Lauterbur. Another
aide will be chosen prior to
the start of spring practice,
Hall said.
He was chosen for the job
from among three outstanding
West Point alumni who are
all active in coaching. The
others under consideration
had been Bobby Dobbs, head
coach at Tulsa, and Johnny
Green, who played guard on
the same teams with Hall and
who now is an assistant coach
at Tulane.
Blaik, one of the nation's
most successful coaches, an
nounced on Jan. 13 that he
was resigning to accept "one
of several opportunities eith
er in television or business."
He will leave the job on his
62nd birthday, Feb. 15.
Hall is regarded as a go
getter. He was the first to
apply for the much-sought
Army job filing a formal ap
plication the day after Blaik
retired last month.
Received Trophy
A native of Parsons, Kan.,
the Cadet's new head coach
also participated in basket
ball and tennis- during his un
dergraduate days at the Point.
Upon his graduation in 1945,
he received the Army A. A.
trophy, presented annually to
the man who rendered "the
most valuable service to ath
letics during his Cadet ca
reer." Hall served four years in
the infantry and held the rank
of 1st Lieutenant at the time
he was separated from the
service in 1949. Then he
launched his coaching career,
serving as an assistant coach
at Purdue, New Hampshire
and Florida before returning
to the Point in 1956.
In addition to his duties as
defensive backfield coach un
der Blaik, Hall also served as
chief scout for the Cadets dur
ing the last three seasons and
spent most of his weekends
"sping" at Navy games.
Hall was a member of
Army's 1944 National Cham
pions team that went through
the season undefeated and un
tied. Although Blanchard and
Davis were on the same team,
they did not play in the same
backfield wjth Hall. The Ca
dets had such a wealth of
talent that season, Blaik
"platooned" two offensive
backfields. The closest any
opponent came to beating
Army that year was Navy,
which succumbed 23-7. The
Cadets beat Notre Dame, 59-0.

night.
A determined band of Jack

humbling and the scalping 43
to 40 by fighting all the way.
The Crusaders, nevertheless,
retained their position at the
head of the Jacksorij County
B league. Their lead was nar
rowed to Vi games when

41 to 35.
Jacksonville takes on a ris
ing threat in the circuit on

Holy Names of Jesus and
Mary.
Perreard Paces
....The Redskins were paced
by the rebounding of Ken
Perreard and the point mak
ing of Ron Davis, Dick Grif
fin and Tim White. Ron Daley
had 13 points and played a
hustling game for the Cru
saders who otherwise lacked
spark. St. Mary's was on top
at the quarter 8 to 7 and half
way score was deadlocked at
22-each. Jacksonville took a
35 to 33 edge in the third
canto.
Victory for the 'Skins came
on the strength of its 11 free
shots in 24 tries to six for 14
by SM. The Medford team put
in 17 of 50 field tries and
Jacksonville 16 of 42. '
Raymond Abbott with his
rebounding and Edwin Ellis
with his best point production
of the season spurred Butte
Falls which was in front 18

at the third quarter halt after
trailing 6 to 8 with one period
gone.
The Loggers fought a heads
up Prospect team which took
advantage of Butte Falls mis
takes. Butte . Falls was not
hitting the hoop like coach
George Bray feels his team
should but defense held up
well generally. Ellis had 15
points and for the Cougars
Floyd Scaife put in 12. Ab
bott snared 23 rebounds.
