There are favorites in most of Ihe other action. Larry Holmes. Grants Pass, with a 13-3 mark this year, is picked in the pole vault, with leam malc, Ron Mclntire, a likely second.

(Tornadoes Have Woes ! Bright spots appear in the Medford high outlook for the district track meet Saturday. But Coach Dean Benson of the Black Tornado still has a considerable tale of woes. Among the latest casualties is hurler Hubert Hamilton, who shot himself in the foot in a reported quick draw mis hap. Pole vaulter Nick Lin gren suffered a torn knee cartilage in practice and it may mean surgery. Another vaulter. Skip Bennett, has bruised a heel. Weight man Tom Bortis has been out of school this week with skin trouble. Hurler, javelin and vaulter Bill Char ley has been absent on a trip to Arizona. All-around performer Mike Hood, who came up with pulled muscles this week, may take part nevertheless. Heavy duty has been slated for him with high and low hurdle competition, the broad jump and a .spot in the relay. Another hurdler. Wait Ayrcs. still has an ailing back and his entry in the high barriers is a question. Particular bright spots for the Tornado are in the dashes, mile and broad jump where Tornadoes should be in hot contention for firsts.
