It PiOOi Tornado Faces Pelicans Here Friday With Title at Stake; Medford Whips Ashland 9-1 A second straight Southern Oregon conference champion ship with an undefeated rec ord in the circuit. That will be the objective of the Med ford High schoul bascballers Friday when they engage in the last regularly scheduled competition in the loop. Medford's Black Tornadoes oppose the Pelicans of Klam ath Falls. Game time is 3 p.m. Play ball hour has been set at a later time than usual with the hope that more people will be able to witness this crucial action in District 8 A-l. A douhlciieader is planned, if time permits, with the first game seven innings and a non league second brush possibly lasting five. Particular emphasis is being placed on this meeting with the Pelicans. And, an effort is being made toward a big turnout of Medford funs. Tor nado letlermen have been con ducting a ticket sale campaign downtown and additional bleachers are to be set up to accomodate a crowd. Tickets sell for $1 each. Althougn Medford holds two wins by 6 to 1 and 8 to 4 in previous contention with the Pelicans this spring. Tor nado diamonders do not an ticipate easy pickings against Klamath Union players. Only one of the KK losses to Med ford figured in the standings and the Pelicans, with a 6-1 mark in the conference to Medford's 7 0, are still very much in the race. They have a chance to tie Medford in the regular circuit standings and lAITH 5 on these BRIGHTEN-UP SPECIALS imm&nmm ftsnm k HIGH-GLOSS ENAMEL SAVE 79c 'SEES ENAMELOID - IS brfUont coksa tar Moor and OwMoor we dri fait wooril oi dwio DM, graaM and stos woo) fight off SALE PRICE $1.59 !""'"

Saturdays force a playoff for a berth in the Oregon Class A-l cham pionship quarterfinals. Klamath, like Medford, has some heavy hitting players and they have a top notch chucker in Blake Griggs, a senior, who has been a Peli can regular since freshman days. Griggs is almost certain to get the starting mound call from KF mentor Bill Mans field. Medford Coach Juhn Ko venz has indicated that he'll send Jerry Anderson to the pitching mound. Anderson held the Pelicans to just one hit in the league game al Klamath Falls. Sixth Over Griziliei Medford warmed up for the KF tussle yesterday with its sixth victory of the season over Ashland high. Score was 9 to 1 in this non-league battle. Seven of the runs were in the second inning when the Black Tornado smashed out six hits including a home run and double by Jerry Anderson and a three-bagger by Lowell Dean. Mike Parsons, Bob Wuinney and Dick Ragsdale whacked singles. There were two bases on balls, a passed ball and two errors in the frame. The roundtrip ball hit by Anderson bounded through the bicycle racks near the school building back of center field. He drove in the last run of the inning with a blow to left field and barely beat the throw to sucond base in tak ing advantage of a Grizzly lapse. Dean's big blow went to right field. The passed ball came with the bases loaded and before the Ashlanders could recover the bases were clean with three runs across the plate. Art Ruhl, running for Cal Dean, tallied on the passed ball. Then catcher Phil Tuck er's bad throw which got by third base allowed Ray Kono pasek and Ragsdale to come home. Oiiinnev nlsn trinlpH In the game with a left field blast. I je He drove in Wayne Thompson, who had singled in the fifth Inning, and scored himself after the catch of Jim Barry's flyout. Ashland got its lout mark er in its heaviest hitting in ning, the third. Paul Alley, Jerry Hauck and Steve Har ris hit safely off Pat McLaugh lin, the Tornado's second pitcher. Alley scored on Mike Brewer's sacrifice fly Coach Kovenz divided the pitching among his four regu lar hurlers. Herb Wheeler gave two hits and McLaugh lin and Quinney each three as each pitched two innings. An derson went to the hill in the seventh and retired the side on strikeouts. Six Strikeouts Medford got three of Its hits in the big inning off start ing tosser Harley Dickerson. Reliever Bob King yielded another three in that canto and four more over the rest of the way. King registered six strikeouts. Harris of Ash land and Dean, Quinney and Anderson of Medford each had two hits. Cal Dean, Medford short slop, lamed by a pulled mus cle is still a question mark so far as game participation is concerned. If he plays Dick Ragsdale will be at third base. If Dean doesn't start Ragsdale will be at short and probably Quinney at third. Ken Jensen is probable catcher with Low ell Dean at first and Kono pasek at second. Outfield se lection is among Quinney, Barry, Thompson and Parsons. One turn at bat was the ex tent of Cal Dean's play yester day. Possible lineup for Klamath is Dave Saks, catcher; Dean Dunson, first base; Don Wil ley, second; Sherm Allen, short; Steve Binney, third; and Ken Womer, Rich DePew and Roy Taylor outfield.

And the Crusaders of Med ford are favored to repeat. The preliminary competi tion is billed to start at 5 p.m. tomorrow in the Wilam ette valley city. Finals will begin at 10 a.m. on Saturday. The meet will be over in time to allow fans to go to Eu gene for the Northern division collegiate competition. Coach Bill McKibbon's Cru saders qualified for 15 state meet berths last week in the district meet at Ashland. The mentor indicated that his squad, on the whole, is healthy. Qualifiers Listed Bob Evans, who pulled a muscle broad jumping last Saturday, may be able to run in the relay. If he doesn't, his brother, Dick or Tom Rouhier may run in his place. Evans went 22 feet 6 Inches Crater High Readies For Role of Host In District Track Central Point - "The track will be fast if the weather stays good." That was the report of Comet Coach Ed Knapp as Crater High school neared the end of preparations for the District 6 A-l cinder and field meet. The five-school encounter will be staged here Saturday with preliminaries starting at 11 a.m. and finals to gel un derway at 2:30 p.m. This will be the first time that Crater has been host for the annual meet of Southern Oregon con ference schools. There has been much preparation this spring for the occasion. Medford. Grants Pass, Klamath Falls and Ashland High schools will compete along with the host Comets. Tile GP Cavemen are defend ers. Crater's six - lane oval is surfaced with fine decompos ed granite. Knapp reported that the lanes are "all pretty good." Temporary wooden curbing has been constructed. Installations this spring have Included rubber-asphalt run ways for the broad jump and pole vault and a takeoff fan of the same material for the high jump. Two sections of bleachers will be at the finish line to accommodate spectators. Oth er sections will provide seat ing for those watching the broad jump, the high jump and the pole vault. Stands have been erected for the fin ish judges and timers and for ribbon presentations. Senior girls will present these awards. Charles A. Meyer, superin tendent of School District 8, will present the trophy to the winning team. Grants Pass and Medford are expected to scrap it out for the team laurels but the first and second spots, which bring berths in the state track meet May 27 and 28 at Eu gene, rould be well divided. There will be four defend ing champions in the meet, Len Grigga, Medford. in the broad Jump, Ron Hoatson, Grants Pass, in the discus, Bob Voris, Ashland. In the 440-yard run, and Jay Hughes, Grants Pass, who tied In the pole vault. Hoatson Picked Hoatson Is a favorite to re peat. Both Voris and Griggs likely are to be stiffly chal lenged. Jiiujhej is expected to bow to teanunales, Larry Holmes and Ron Mclntire, who have been outdoing him this season. Holmes was fa vored Inst year but had a bad day in the district meet. Injury to Crater's Glen Cote, who was second last year In the district, establish ed Ron Hoatson as top pick. Cote suffered a broken leg when struck by a car last Sunday. Another Comet, Den nis Edwards, broad jumper and javelin thrower, was bruised recently In a similar mishap. Whether he will com pete Saturday Is uncertain. Medford hurdle hopes suf fered a setback this week with the report that Mike Hood is hampered by pulled muscles and that Wall Ayres' back still is ailing. Few Records Expected Record breaking efforts are expected to be few but marks particularly are threatened in the pole vault and javelin. Holmes has gone 13 feet 3 inches in the vault thus sea son. The district mark is 12-8. Max Burton. Crnter. last week tossed the javelin 211-9. Cur rent standard is 208-8. Other marks have been tied or neared but not bettered. Don Garrison, five-foot 6-inch tall high jumper, has equaled the district record of 8-2. Ken Marshall, Grants Pass, has run the half-mile in 2:01.1. The standard Is 2 01. Griggs had run the 220 yard dash in :22.3. A district record of ;22 2 has stood since Bob Leslie, Klamath Falls, set it in 1934. Steve Gray, Ash land, has broad jumped 22-6' compared to the standard of 22-8 1 2 and the Medford relay team has gone the 880 dis tance in 1:31 5. which is .3 of a second off the mark. in his only district jump. The distance was the best of the day but the SM thinclad foul ed by about three inches and the leap did not count. It was the only jump he took. St. Mary's has Dick Evans qualified in the mile, high jump and broad jump. Terry Cooper in both hurdles and the javelin. Alex Mete in the 100 and 220 dashes, Roger Houl in the 220 and 440, Tom Rouhier and Dave Rouhier in the 880, Dan Rouhier in dis cus, Aundre Kmitson in the javelin and the relay team.

After Sugar missed his fight with Pedro Gonzales in a 1 warmup on a card featuring a 10-round non-title bout be- j tween welterweight champ Don Jordan and Candy Mc-, Farland, the commission ord- j ered Robinson to show cause j why he should not be suspend-; ed. Jack Cohen, executive sec retary of the commission, said nothing had been heard from Robinson on whether he would attend. But Cohen said the commission "intimated in a telegram" failure to appear would warrant "the commis sion's taking appropriate action."

Pollard, shown here with his powerful car, was 1959 Pacific Northwest modified auto racing champion. Season at the track near Ashland begins on Saturday, May 21. Supermodified racing will be the order of the evening with approximately 30 vehicles now slated for entry. Pollard is well-known from past performances on Medford and Ashland tracks. Since this pop ular driver last appeared In the Rogue valley, he has developed into one of the most consistent winners in modified conten tion. His numerous titles include champion ships of the Eugene and Roseburg tracks. He made a clean sweep this spring of the Portland speedway opener. Any number of experts say that Pollard's machine, powered by a 280 cubic inch Chevrolet engine, is one of the finest that has been built. The program at the speedway Saturday will include the usual time trials, heat races, trophy dash, semi-main and main. The main will be 35 laps. Defends Title Tokyo - fCPP - Jose Becerra of Mexico, world bantam weight champion, will defend his title against Kenji Yone kura of Japan at the Kora kuen Baseball Stadium Friday night and more than 20,000 are expected. Because of his punch, 24-year-old Becerra is favored at 12-5 over 25-year-old Yone kura, a speedy boxer but com paratively light hitter. 440 Ray Johnson. Medford. :49 fl (1S4II Low hurdles Larson.
