April 20, 1939 iainiers Meid ScoreDess As SoDons IRap Out Triumph Uniiod Press International It's difficult to tell if the Seattle Rainiers are patsies at the plate or whether the Sacramento Solons tossed a couple of ring-tailed pitching wonders at them Sunday. That's one of the interest ing aspects of the early go ing. You just can't tell what is par for the course. Solon pitchers Carl Greene and Chuck Hickman held Seattle to a long string of goose eggs throughout a EDucCis (Freshman May Crack Mile 3y HOWARD APPLEGATE "United Press International Eugene, Ore. -UPD- There's a limber-limbed lad attending the University of Oregon who would rather run than eat and his coach thinks he has a chance to crack the four-minute, mile one of these days. Dyrol Burleson, 18, is only a freshman at Oregon. But al ready he's attracted national attention. He will compete in the Drake Relays this week end. Coach Bill Bowerman of Oregon said he had hopes Burleson could better 4:05 in the Drake meet. Herb Elliott of Australia, a master of the sub-four minute mile, reached 4:05 when he was 18 years old. Although the four-minute mile has been surpassed many times, the only Ameri can to do so has been Don Bowden of California. Thus, Bowerman holds high hopes for his young frosh star. But he's grooming him carefully. If any attempts at a sub-four-minute mark are made by an Oregon trackman this year, Jim Grelle, a top varsity mil er, will make them, Bower man said. High School Record Holder Burleson is a lanky youth who spent his earlier days running around reservoirs near his home town of Cot tage Grove, 20 miles south of here. He raced into the na tional picture last year when as a high school senior he broke the national prep mile mark with a time of 4:13.2. Running for the Oregon freshmen on April 11 of this year he did 4:07.5, an NCAA freshman record. . ' Bowerman said Burleson is keeping a fine pace with the program he laid out this spring. He started the season with an easy 4:15 victory on a muddy track in the Wil lamette Relays in Salem, Ore. Then he came through with the 4:07.6 against the Oregon State freshmen in his second try. 'Bowerman is happy with Burleson's sense of pace in his April 11 effort. "We talked about running 62-second laps for this race and he came through with a 62-6162-62.5-62.1, which is certainly close enough to suit VMM me. Burleson has a powerful finishing kick but he seldom has had to use it to win so far. In both of his races this year he has been all alone by the end of the second lap. , The only defeat Burleson suffered in the last two years came in the national AAU championships in Bakersfield, Calif., last June when he fail- Kashey Gets Title Chance Grants Pass-AI Kashey, of Los Angeles, Calif., gets his big chance here Tuesday when he meets wild Bill Savage at the Josephine Coun ty Fairgrounds Arena for the Northwest heavyweight cham pionship. Kashey earned this chance by defeating Savage, Rimm- ler, Poppenheim and Sasaki on successive Tuesday nights He is light for a heavyweight, 208 pounds, but makes up for it with speed and knowledge of leverage wrestling. "Wild Bill" Savage recent ly annexed the Northwest heavyweight title belt when he defeated Ed Francis in Portland before 3,000 fans All in all this shapes up as one of the most hard fought matches in Grants Pass his tory and fans are advised to be on hand for this one, pro moters said. The one hour semi-final will be a rematch of the hec tic brawl last week between young Jerry Kozak and rug eed Don Manoukian. Kozak was beaten last week with a crab hold.

In other PCL action, San Diego swept a pair from Port land, 10-1 and 3-2 to salvage a one game edge in its five game opening series with the Beavers. Spokane Sweeps Giants Spokane knocked over de fending champion Phoenix, 6-2, to make it three out of ed to qualify for the final. However, he was running against such stars as Elliott, Gail Hodgson of Oklahoma, Jim Moran of Penn State and others only two weeks after his graduation from high school. His time then was 4:10.7 but only the top four men qualified for the final and it took a 4:07 to make the grade. The field at the Drake Re lays will be the toughest he has faced since that AAU meet and Bowerman said he believed the experience would be good for him, win or lose.

Sprints Set Unofficial New Mark United Press International Two world record" sprint races, one of which won't be submitted for official recogni tion because of too much wind, helped set the track and field stage" today for the important Penn and Drake relays week end. Ray Norton of San Jose State, rapidly gaining stature as an Olympic hope 'for next year, equalled the world mark of 10.1 seconds for 100 meters in a triangular meet Saturday at San Jose, Calif., and he says he now feels he's "ready for my fastest races." Bill Woodhouse, often un jutly overlooked as a team mate of Olympic champ Bobby Morrow at Abilene Christian college, eclipsed the world record for 100 yards at Abi lene, Tex., Saturday by clock ing 9.1 seconds. However, Woodhouse's per formance - which bettered the official mark of 9.3 seconds -won't be offered as a record because of an excessive tail wind. Will Submit Mark Norton's 100 meter mark, however, will be submitted. The San Jose speedster al ready shares the 100 yard record. The two sprint stars domin ated a brilliant week end of activity which also saw the University - of Kansas hold sway in the Kansas Relays as it did in the Texas Relays two weeks ago, Dave Mills star in the Ohio Relays at Columbus, Ohio, and Yale University take the team title in the Queens-Iona Relays in New York. .

Med Troilus Shows Poorly But Has Derby Chance Editors: This is another of several dispatches on the leading Kentucy Derby can didates. New York -(DPD- Troilus, after racing brilliantly at Hia leah, was a bitter disappoint ment a t Gulfstream Park during his winter campaign. Nevertheless, owner Bay ard Sharp of Middletown, Del., and trainer Charley Peo ples never have lost confi dence in the colt who will get a chance to redeem himself in ' the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on May 2. The son of Priam 2nd sky rocketed to fame when he warmed up for the $10,000 Flamingo Stakes by setting a track record at Hialeah park in the Bahamas Stakes. The colt, who is registered as bay but looks brown, was timed in 1:45 2-5 for the mile and one-sixteenth and immediately pre-race favorite for the Fla mingo. In Hialeah Park's top race for three-year olds Troilus romped home by three lengths. He failed to match Bold Ruler's track record of 1:48 2-5 for a mile and one eighth by only four-fifths of a second. Peoples, a former steeple chase jockey, then pointed Troilus for the $100,000 Flori da Derby. This time the young trainer prepped his Triple Crown candidate in the Foun tain of Youth stakes.

Rogers keeps his whip busy on Troilus throughout a race because "he's strictly a loafer," ex plains Peoples. Sharp believes Troilus may be the best horse he ever has had and he has been in rac ing for a long time. He rates him better than Hannibal, who cut the early pace in the 1952 Kentucky Derby but faded to eighth. No such fate awaits Troil us, Sharp, Peoples and Rogers agree.

JOSEPHINE COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS ELTON OWEN, Promoter Sport Parade New York - (UPD - A little man of perpetual hunger emerged today as a symbol of the wide-open condition of the Kentucky Derby. His name is Pete Anderson and he is barrel-chested jock ey who looks much like a middleweight fighter crouch ing on his knees. Until Sat urday he was a workaday rider fighting a constant ap petite in the sweat box with out any pretensions of great turf glory. But a third-place ride in the Wood Memorial on a long shot which could have won has "The Ice Cream Kid" dreaming unexpectedly of the winner's circle at Churchill Downs two weeks hence. . When they paraded post ward for the Wood on Sat urday a colt called First Land ing, with Eddie Arcaro in Canadiens Champions In Hockey Montreal - (UPD - The Mon treal Canadiens, h o c k e y's most powerful and colorful exponents, -reigned as world champions for the fourth con secutive year today and Coach Toe Blake called it the "sweet est one of them all." The Canadiens, playing without their two brightest stars - Maurice (Rocket) Rich ard and Jean Beliveau -wrapped up an unprecedented fourth straight Stanley Cup championship Saturday night, defeating the game but "second-best" Toronto Maple Leafs, 5-3. It took the Cana diens just five games of the best-of-seven series to clinch the title. Paced by Bernie (Boom Boom) Geoffrion's two goals and one by his rookie line mate, Ralph Backstrom, the habitants jumped off to a 3-0 lead in the first 20 minutes and then increased the margin to 5-1 after two periods. The vajiant Leafs, strug gling desperately to avert elimination, saved the finale from being a dull affair with a" furious last period on slaught. They scored twice to narrow the score to 5-3 and then threw six forwards at the habitants in the final 2:33 in a vain but dramatic climax to the series. "This has to be the great est team yet," said Blake, obviously moved by the show ing of his hustling heroes. "We had. to do it the hard way r- without the big guys Prospect- Wins 9 to 8 Game Prospect - The Prospect diamond men squeaked ahead of Talent by a 9 to 8 margin Friday at Prospect. The second inning was the big one for Prospect with a total of four base hits, all singles slammed out. Wallace Nye started things moving in the second frame when he took a base after being hit by the Talent pitcher. Knock ing out the singles were John Rogers, Norm Jantzer, Dave Hall, and Lee Gitchell. At inning's end Prospect was ahead 6 to 3. Talent started strong In the first inning. It was Sam Knud sen's single which brought two in. If You Are Planning A Swimming Pool ASK YOUR CONTRACTOR TO USE Tru-Mix Concrete Delivered SP 2-5271 By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International the irons, was expected to prove that he was the "big horse" for the approaching Rose Run. The opposition, the experts said, would come from such other hopefuls as Intentionally, Open View and Atoll. Trapped on Rail. So what happened? First Landing killed off the other big horses and was leading the way into the stretch when he was collared by a colt called Manassa Mauler, which isn't even eligible for the Der by. Manassa Mauler, a 64 to 1 shot, finished a half length on top of the ridden-out First Landing. But the favorite could have been third. That's where Anderson, who finished third a half length back of First Landing, comes in. He was trapped on the rail, behind the Mauler and inside of First Landing. And going down the stretch, as yard af ter yard perished under the pounding hoofs, he couldn't get free. So our Dad, his 18-1 shot, finished third. But in the tack room, as Arcaro factually admitted that First Landing had run out of gas, little Pete Anderson of the third-place finish was looking hopefully toward Louisville. "Hot damn," he snapped. "Hot damn." He was so excited he could n't stand still, bouncing back and forth on those stubby lit tle bowed legs which -with frightful dieting - permit him to be a race rider. "I kept waiting for one jump by either of them which would let me free, give' me racing room," he panted. "It never came. But this is a Der by colt. Cause if I'd gotten it, this colt would have rolled for eight; days." That's a jockey's way of pointing out that the colt had plenty left and was Pete's way of saying that, with the Wood at a mile and an eighth, his colt had the stamina for the added distance of the mile and a quarter Derby. . "I hope they send him," Pete said. "He - proved to me he had it. I sent that big joker in along the rail trying to get through and he banged the rail. He was full of whitewash, But he didn't quit. Hot damn. I sure hope we make it." STORES 214 South Riverside Ave. Phone SP 2-7119 It's Scientifically Mixed for the BEST RESULTS! is" nnr n n " CONCRETE C? 248 E. McAndrews Rd.
