That was an appropri ate comment voiced yester day as Medford High school was on its way to victory in the annual Rogue Valley re lays at the Medford stadium. . Black Tornado trackmen ended the two-year reign of Grants Pass in the relays in convincing fashion and liven . ed hopes for further upsurge in Medford cinderpath and field fortunes. They won eight of the 13 events, set one new record and tied another and ran up a, tremendous 100V4 points. , Grants Pass was a distant second with 75 'a and was pressed for the No, 2 spot by Crater which took third with 71 V4. Klamath Falls scored 50 and Ashland 30V4. Mike Hood, Phil Hum phreys and Dan Sieg combin ed for the day's only record ahatterlng effort. They aggre gated 62 feet 9V4 inches, bet tering by one foot the mark ' set by a 1956 Medford trio, Jerry Close; Mike Hawkins and Bob Tisdel. Hood leaped 21 feet 7 Inches, Humphrey's 21 feet and Dan Sieg 20-2 Vz. A Tornado quartet of Hum phreys, Kent Blew, Terry Ryan and Len Griggs tied the 880-yard relay mark of 1:31.5.

Klamath Falls won three events, the javelin, discus and distance medley and Grants Pass took two con tests, the pole vault and mile relay. While Crater gained no . firsts, it scored strongly with six seconds and two thirds. Hood Wins Hurdles Hood captured the high hurdle race. His time of :15.3 actually put another record on the books for Medford since it was the first Rogue running of this race. Walt Ayres, also of Medford, was second, Mike McCullough, Humphreys, Jim Schmidt and Griggs teamed for Medford In the 440 win and a slick ex change between Humphreys and Schmidt made the differ ence in the race. The :44.4 time was .1 second off the record. In the two-mile Bob Rlx ran the fastest leg for Medford of 2:04 to gain back distance lost. Ray Smith, an choring in 2:05.9, took the lead on the west lap and beat off a stretch challenge by Ken Marshall of Grants Pass. Medford, with Griggs on the final leg, won the 880 re lay by five yards after being behind going into the last ex change.
