Webfoots To Divide For Meets University of Oregon, Eu gene Special) - Oregon's powerful track and field forces will be split this week end, with nine crack Webfoots headed for the Drake Relays in Des Moines and the remain der of the squad set for the Northern Division meet at Hayward Field , with the Idaho Vandals. Coach Bill Bowerman has named milers Jim Grelle, Dick Miller, George Larson and Phil Knight, plus freshman Dyrol Burleson, to enter the Drake classic and they will be jointed by D. C. Mills in the javelin, Jack Burg in the pole vault, Steve Anderson in the 100 and broad jump, and Roscoe Cook in the 100. -Shoot at Mark The four crack Duck milers will be shooting for the meet four-mile relay record when they go into compeition on Friday and then Grelle runs alone in the collegiate mile on Saturday against a strong field headed by Alex Henderson of Arizona State. Burleson is scheduled to face the toughest competitors of his short career in the open mile on Saturday when he tangles with Lazlo Tabori, the former Hungarian ace, and ex-Iowa aces Ted Wheeler and Deacon Jones. All have run better than 4:06 and Burelson may have to run the fastest race of his career to win. The varsity attempt at the Drake four-mile record, which is held by Kansas at 17:15.3, hinges on how well Miller, who ran the fastest two mile in the country last Saturday, shakes a bad cold. If he does not recover, his place will be taken by Mark Robbins. 250,500 Yearling Fish To Be Planted In Roaue Drainage Bias Charge Against Sox At Boston Boston -flJPD- The Massachu setts Commission Against Dis crimination is expected to rule on bias charges brought against the Boston Red Sox within the next week. The charges, leveled by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo ple, stemmed from the option ing of Negro infielder Pump sie Green who became the first of his race to don a Red Sox uniform in spring train ing. The NAACP charged that the Red Sox had discrimina tion, not only in the Green case, but in their overall hir ing policies. Red Sox business manager Richard H. O'Connell repre sented the club Tuesday and told the commission, "I deny categorically that the Red Sox has a discriminatory policy, Portland Oregon anglers can look forward to another good trout season if the num ber of yearling fish to be planted by the game commis sion during the next several months is any indication of what's to come. Tentative allocations set by the fishery division show that more than 2,541,000 hatchery reared trout of catchable size will be released in lakes and streams this summer to sup plement stocks of wild fish. The vast majority of these legals are rainbow trout with good numbers of cutthroats and lake trout also on the rearing schedule. An additional 578,000 yearlings will be stocked, but anglers will have to wait a few years to reap the har vest from these plants. They represent the yearling steel head and salmon held at hatcheries which will be re leased during the months when they can migrate to the sea without running the gauntlet of angler's hooks Northwest Heaviest The heavily fished- lakes and streams of the northwest region are destined to receive the largest apportionment of the yearling plants, followed by the southwest region, the popular central region, the northeast, and the desert country of southeast Oregon. Northwestern Oregon lakes and streams, which take in the Willamette drainage and north coast, will be stocked with 1,502,000 catchable sized fish. About 311,000 of these will be planted in lakes and reservoirs of the region Southwestern Oregon wat ers which include the Ump- qua and Rogue drainages will be stocked with around 620, 000 yearlings, with the heavi est plants in the Umpqua ba sin and followed by the Rogue. In the Umpqua drainage, about 262,500 yearlings will be released, of which 132,500 will be rainbow trout, 95,000 chinook salmon, and 35,000 steelhead trout. The Rogue river and its tributaries will receive yearl ing plants of 250,500 of which 145,000 will be rain bows plus a few cutthroats, 50,000 chinook salmon, 20,000 silver salmon, and 35,000 steelhead. An additional 107,- 000 rainbows and cutthroats are scheduled for release in other southwest coastal streams and lakes, The total number of fish of all sizes to be planted during the year will probably num ber close to 18,000,000 in. eluding plants of fry, finger- lings, and yearlings.
