Kansas Captures NCAA Team Title;
Dyrol Burleson Sets Meet Record
United Press International
Berkeley, Calif. Ten meet
records were set, one tied and
Kansas won its second straight
team title Saturday in the
NCAA track and field cham
pionships. In a thrill-filled day of com
petition, U.S. college athletes
tuned up for the Olympic
trials with solid performances
in nearly every event. Out
standing feats were turned in
by Charlie Tidwell of Kansas,
who won the 100 and 200
meter dashes; John Thomas,
the high-Jumping ace from
Boston university, and Dyrol
Burleson, the great miler from
Oregon.
The smooth-striding Tidwell
fled a 28-year-old record in
the 100 meters when he was
clocked in 10.2 seconds. The
record first was set by Ralph
Metcalfe, of Marquette, in
1932, and later duplicated by
the great Jesse Owens of Ohio
State in 1036.
Tidwell won the 200 meters
In easier fashion in 2:20.8.
Thomas Clears Seven Feet
Thomas cleared 7 seven feet
to win the high jump and
erase a mark of 6 feet 11H
Inches set in 1955 by Ernie
Shelton, of USC. It was the
28th time Thomas had cleared
7 feet or better. Later he
tried for a world's mark at 7
feet, 2 inches and barely
brushed off the bar on each
of three tries
Burelson, only U.S. citizen
ever to crack the four mm
ute barrier in the mile twice,
easily won the 1,500 meter
race.
His 3:44.2 erased a mark
of 3:47.3 set by Ron Delany

Yes, American Legion Posts' volunteer baseball
committees have helped start over 50 of AIL
MAJOR LEAGUE PLAYERS In the nation's Number 1
sport and are still doing a fine job. Many boys, 14
through 17 years of age, have benefitted through
this fine program In both physical and mental
training while delinquency is practically nil in
these groups.
And Don't Forget...
It takes ENERGY to play ball! That's why the boys
drink lots of nourishing MILK. It gives them the
necessary pep to play the game and keeps them
healthy throughout the season. Fans, too, need
milk so, be sure you have plenty on hand be
fore and after the games for the small fry and
grown-ups, too.

FANFARE
By DICK JEWETT
Mall Tribune Sports Editor
Medford High school's 1960
football schedule, as original
ly announced by Head Coach
Fred Spiegelberg, has caused
considerable comment because
the Black Tornado's longest
trip of the season was to be to
Grants Pass.
This has changed. At the
coaching clinic this month at
Eugene, Spiegelberg filled in
the open date on the Tornado
schedule. Medford will play
on Sept. 23 at Red Bluff,
Calif. Red Bluff last fall was
champ of its league, which in
cluded Shasta High of Redding.
Medford now has its full
allotment of regular season
games, nine of them, with six
at home.The slate as it stands
complete is: Sept. 9-Arcata,
Calif., here; Sept. 16-Marsh-field
here; Sept. 23-At Red
Bluff; Sept. 30-South Salem
here; Oct. 7-Crater here; Oct.
14-Klamath Falls here; Oct.
21-Reno, Nev., here; Oct. 28-
At Ashland; Nov. 4-At Grants
Pass.
Reno and Areata, along
with Red Bluff are new to the
slate.

PLAY FOR FROSH
Four members of the Ore
gon freshman baseball squad
this spring were ex-Medford
High school diamond men.
These included Bob Pond, Ron
Peery, George Ice and Tom
Laurence. Wet weather in the
Willamette valley permitted
the' Ducklings to play only a
limited number of games.
Pond, however, was regular
catcher and played in all the
contests and was third in bat
ting with a .270 average.
Peery was an outfield main
stay and reportedly hit around
.230 to .240. Ice played some
In the outfield and at first
base and Laurance saw some

Both Pond and Ice are play
ing for the Medford Bowling
lanes team of the Rogue Val

portedly is competing for the
Eugene Ducks, a semi-pro
nine, this summer.
MADDOX TO TEACH
Another ex-Medford High
baseballer with the Eugene
Ducks is Terry Maddox.
With the Salem Senators
earlier this season, Maddox
recently drew his release
from that Northwest league
club. He reportedly was
victim of an economy move.
Maddox was one of the
higher salaried Senators.
A graduate of University
of Oregon, where he starred
in baseball, the ex-Medford-ite
reportedly will teach
and coach next school year
at Springfield. Norm Chap

star, has been head track
tutor at Springfield and
will become head man In
football for the Millers this
fall.
Palmer Wins U.S. Open With
Record-Breaking Comeback
Migrating
Fish Have
Protection
Grants Pass-A new lease on
life was given downstream
migrant steelhead and salmon
recently at the Savage Rapids
irrigation diversion through
the installation of new rotary
screens, thanks to the Grants
Pass Irrigation district.
The new screens, installed
on the southside diversion by
crews from the game commis
sion's Central Point screen
plant replaced old inadequate
screens of some 25 years ex
istence. The dual screens, each
one some eight feet in length,
were also constructed at Cen
tral Point.
Need for replacement of
these screens became evident
some five years ago when the
district voted funds for exten
sive repair of the Savage Rap
ids dam to plug leaks in the
face and footings which pre
vented full Impoundment of
water.
When this was completed,
the additional water raised
the level to the top of the old
screens causing considerable
losses of downstream migrant
fish. Instead of being bypass
ed, the young fish were pick
ed up by the screen and car
ried over the top. Cost of con
struction and replacement of
the screens was around $1,-500.
During repairs of the dam
the district also improved the
regular fishways for upstream
and downstream migrant
steelhead and salmon.
The Medford irrigation dis
trict also went all out in pro
tecting migrant steelhead at
their new Talent diversion
dam on Bear creek. On this
16-foot diversion canal the
district installed dual rotary
screens to prevent downstream
migrants from entering.
