High series Evalyn Brandhorst 510. Sweltering in the three-game series has been played. Metro won single games, 9 to 8 In 1958 and 7 to 1 last year. This situation leaves State with the oppor tunity, at least, to sweep the series and take the lead in the all-star competition. Backers of the games be lieve that the new three-game system, in addition to being more appealing to fans, will enable the baseballers, who have just finished their prep careers, to better demonstrate their talents by having the chance to see more service. Four Medfordites While there has been hesi tation to indicate a favorite in the week end rivalry, point has been made that Oregon's A-l championship team and runner-up are both well-represented on the State roster and that the runner-up for state honors eliminated Met ropolitan area teams in the prep playoffs. Oregon champ Medford placed four men on the State squad. They are Jerry Ander son, pitcher-outfielder; Cal vin Dean, shortstop; Lowell Dean, first base, and Ken Jen sen, catcher. Parkrose, which Medford tripped in the titular game, put three man on the all-star contingent. These players were Tim Mahoney and Dennis Barlow, pitchers, and Bud Hill, second base man. Players were to arrive at Eugene today. Teams are made up of players who fin ished their high school ca reers this spring. The tussle pits baseballers from the Portland Interscholastic ana Metropolitan leagues against stars of the rest of the state.

Use Our EASY BUDGET PLAN Plenty of Convenient Off-Street Perking 2 3J Big Mike, the one-time Duke football star, put them away with his short game. He whipped those short irons up there with such impressive accuracy that he one-putted eight of the first nine greens. And only one of these putts was as long as 20 feet. And for the route he had only 26 putts. Bolt Withdraws There were other eye-opening developments: -Tommy Bolt, the 1958 win ner at Tulsa whose famed tem per already has him under an indefinite probation, shot an 80 and withdrew after firing two balls - and his driver into the lake on the 18th. It cost him a $100 fine and possi ble future punitive action. He was put on probation by the Professional Golfers associa tion for conduct "detrimental to golf." Actually it was for club-throwing. -Sentimental favorites Ben Hogan and Sam Snead got off poorly. Hogan, seeking a rec ord fifth win, carded a 37-38-75 and Slammin' Sam, sec ond four times and at 48 "giv ing it one last big shot," card ed a 35-37-72. -The 4 to 1 favorite, Arnold Palmer, Masters champion and the year's leading money winner, got off slowly, too, with a one over par 36-38-72 which left him four shots off the pace. -And young Doug Sanders, the man with the "telephone booth swing," could possibly have shared or taken the lead but in an unusual "fish" epi sode he blew to a double bogey on the final hole for a one under par 70. The fish, a bass, leaped so noisily as he teed off on the 18th hole that it upset him. Grouped with him, two shots back, came two foreign threats - British Open cliam pion Gary Player and Aussie Bruce Crampton - along with Dick Stranahan of Alameda Calif.; singer Don Cherry former champion Jack Fleck and Joe Taylor of Charleston W.Va., and Houston La Clair, of Birmingham, Ala.

YOUR INDEPENDENT TIRE DEALER Termite Hordes Gorging Selves in Widening Kansas City -0IPD- Termite hordes seem to be gorging themselves on floor joists and door stoops in a constantly widening area of North Am erica, a University of Missou ri entomologist reported. But whether there has ac tually been a population ex plosion among the wood-eaters remains a matter of debate. Some scientists believe report ed damage has increased only because there are more houses to eat and because household ers have become termite con scious. Whatever the reason, the voracious insects with a taste for lumber now are eating their way through the homes of millions of Americans, ac cording to Dr. Philip Stone, University of Missouri ento mologist. Anybody's Guess Stone said one large com mercial organization estimat ed after a detailed survey that termites each year invade about two million houses in which their dining produces enough damage to send the owner in quest of professional aid. How many marauders es cape detection, or haven't yet reached the stage where their depredations produce a call for help, is anybody's guess, Stone said. In any event, the winged in sects are now found in all con tinental states except Alaska. Alaska is believed to be free of them, but Stone said that might be only because there has been no intensive study there. Termites, which love warm, moist places, now are found even in such semi-arid regions as Arizona and New Mexico, Stone said. Modern building practices tend to help support the in vaders. Stone said homes built on concrete slabs not only provide a cozy winter resi dence for termites but per mit them to eat the year around, instead of just during the summer months. Protected and insulated crawl spaces provide just the right environ ment, he said.

Unlike man, the termite has come down through the eons little chang ed from his ancestors. While there are many spe cies of termites, Stone has one rule of thumb to distinguish them from the flying ant, which looks pretty similar. The villain has a boat shaped body and four wings of equal length. The ant has four wings of unequal length, attached to an hour glass fig ure.
