At Rogue Rebel II on some rough Rogue river least 25 boats will be in competition for the water as he prepares for the annual 50-mile $2,000 in prize money. (UPI Telephoto) Unheralded Yank Tips Ex-Champ Portrush, Northern Ireland -HIPD- Ralph Morrow, an un heralded American service man from Oklahoma City, Okla., upset former champion Reid Jack of Scotland, 5 and 4, today to reach the fourth round of the British Amateur Golf Championship. Only one other U.S. player, Bob Cochran, St. Louis, sur vived the third round as four Yanks, including highly tout ed Tim Holland, Rockville Centre, N.Y., suffered ignomi nous defeats on the rainswept Royal Portrush Course. Cochran joined Morrow in this afternoon's fourth round with an easy 5 and 4 triumph over B.R. Pitchford of Eng land. Thrae-Puits 19ih Holland, a semifinalist in the 1958 tournament, three putted the 19th hole to drop a 1-up decision to England's Brian Chapman, a former Cambridge University golfer who has never won even a club championship. The other Yanks blown off the course by a combination of the elements and erratic putting were Don Dawson, Detroit; Bill Gibson, Louis ville, Ky., and Maj. Hiram Snowden, Savannah, Ga. W. G. Pierce, a tiny but scrappy English club steward, eliminated Dawson, 2 and 1; John Boston of Ireland whip ped Gibson, 4 and 3, and John Duncan of Ireland posted a 5 and 4 victory over Snowden. enjoy the true old-style Kentucky Bourbon always smoother because it's slow-distilled KCNTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKY 86 PROOF IARLY TIMES DISTILLERY CO, LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY 1 iiWrl .L Burleson, Elliott Meet on Week End By HAL WOOD San Francisco-UPD-To the little All-Amerlcan city of Modesto, Calif., last official population 16,379, this week comes the United States' finest "battle of the century" in the mile run. It's Herb Elliott, the king of the milers from Australia; Dy rol Burleson, the top hope of the United States after his brilliant 3:58.6 a month ago; and Laszlo Tabori, ex-Hungarian, who is returning to con dition after a 3:59.6 minute mile before he fled from his native land four years ago. This trio heads up the finest field ever put together in this country for the "magic mile." Great Also-Rans And pushing them will be such greats as Jim Beatty of the Santa Clara Youth Vil lage, who beat Burleson for the national AAU indoor championship In New York; and Bill Dellinger, ex-Oregon ace. So why is a show like this being staged in a little city like Modesto? Nineteen years ago Tom Moore, one-time U.S. hurdles champion while running for University of California, had a brain-child. He wanted to put his home town of Modesto on the map as a track and field town. He got the cham ber of commerce to support him. Today, the California Re- ' V? mm lays rate as one of the top attractions in their field in the country. They attract the top stars from around the world.
