Newspaper Page TexttTNDAY, AUGUST 28, 1960 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. A 13 5' 1 . i r 1 1 i , i n Bowerman To Write Column for Tribune Bill Bowerman, University of Oregon track coach who is recognized as one of the world's best in his field, plans to write a limited number of feature articles on the 1960 Olympic games while in Borne. The stories will be ex clusive to The Mail Tribune, and five other up-state daily newspapers. Bowerman, former Oregon quarter-miler and football halfback, will have seven of his past or present stars per forming in the Games. Rep resenting the United States will be Bill Dellinger, 5.000 nieters; Jim Grelle and Dyrol Burleson, 1,500 meters; Otis Davis, 400 meters, and Dave Edstrom, in the decathlon. Representing Canada will be Harry Jerome 100 and 200 meters, and Sig Ohlemann, 800 meters. Bowermon joined the Ore gon coaching staff in 1948 following an unusually suc cessful career in coaching track and fooball at Medford High school. He is a product of the fabulous Colonel Bill Hayward, who retired when Bowerman joined the Web foot staff. Oregon track, under Bow erman, has won the Northern Division championship seven consecutive years and since late in 1954 the Webfoots have lost only one dual meet to perennially powerful USC in a triangle-dual affair Along with Stanford at Palo Alto in the spring of 1959. Best known nationally as A coach of distance running Ftars, the former president of the National Collegiate Coach es association is a fine funda mental coach in all events, as proven by the develop ment of Edstrom and a num ber of weight men who have established new school records in recent years. Jim Bailey, although a na tive of Australia, came to Oregon as a good runner, but blossomed under Bowerman's coaching and became the first man ever to break the four minute barrier in the mile on United States soil. That was in 1956 in Los Angeles where he upset Australia's Jim Landy. Burleson also became the second United States citi zen to break that barrier. defeating Ernie Cunliffe of Stanford in a dual meet on Hayward field April 23. Both Bailey and Burleson are cred ited with times of 3:56.6, and that time established a new United Slates citizen record, the old mark set by Don Bowden of the University of California in 1957. Bowerman has produced National champions other than Burleson (both the AAU in 1959 and the NCAA this year at 1,500 meters) and Davis (AAU 400 meters). Dellinger was Bowerman's first National champ, winning the NCAA mile in 1954. -In DO YOU ADMIRE QUALITY CONSTRUCTION? YOU CAN ADMIRE A VOLKSWAGEN! There are 3,389 men of our Wolfsburg factory with only one job; to inspect Volkswagens at each stage of production. (3000 Volkswagens are produced daily; there are more inspectors than cars.) Final inspection is really something! VW Inspectors run each car off the line onto the Funktionsprufstand (car test stand), tote up 189 check points, gun ahead to the automatic brake stand, and say "no" to one VW out of fifty. This preoccupation with detail means the VW lasts longer and requires less maintenance, by and large, than other cars. (It also means a used VW depreci ates less than any other car.) MORSE MOTORS 6th and Ivy, Medford 1955 Jim Bailey won the NCAA mile and Ken Riser the two-mile and Riser the AAU 3,000 meters. Dellinger won the NCAA 5,000 meters in 1956 and Jim Grelle the NCAA mile in 1959. Bowerman's feature stories will be based on personal ob servation of the Oregon track athletes in particular and the Olympic games in general information not carried by United Press International. He and Mrs. Bowerman (Bar bara) left for Rome today.

Giants Dump Braves 3-1; NY Takes Two From Indians Sox Defeat Boston, Nab Second Spot United Preti International Ralph Terry's brilliant two hit pitching in the nightcap enabled the New York Yan kees to take their second straight doubleheader from the Cleveland Indians Satur day, 7-4, and 3-0. The twin victories raised the Yankees' American league lead to 21 i games over Chi cago and Baltimore. The White Sox defeated Boston, 9-6, while Kansas City tripped Baltimore, 5-3. Washington beat Detroit, 4-1. Terry had a no-hitter until Vic Bower bounced a double into right field with one out in the seventh. Johnny Temple got the oth er hit, a leadoff double in the ninth, but was erased trying to make third on pinchhitter Harvey Kuenn's fly to Mickey Mantle. Gary Bell started for the Indians, who now have lost eight straight doubleheaders, but quit because of a sore arm in the first inning. He hung around long enough to serve up Bob Cerv's 14th homer. Bobby Richardson s single a sacrifice and Cerv's single added a run in the fifth and the Yanks scored their other run in the sixth on singles by Mantle, Bill Skowron and a double play grounder. Bill Stafford won his first major league victory in the opener, although he needed ninth inning help from Luis Arroyo after Cleveland scor ed twice. A six-run uprising in the fifth inning by the Yankees broke a 1-1 tie and wrapped up the game for Stafford. Tito Francona's 12th homer of the season in the second inning gave Cleveland a 1-0 lead, but New York tied it in the fourth on a walk and sin gles by Skowron and Elston Howard. Cleves Boyer's 11th homer opened the barrage that chas ed Jack Harshman in the fifth and tagged the Indian starter with his fourth loss. The White Sox moved into second place by a percentage point over Baltimore as Chi cago bombed Boston starter Ike Delock for five runs in the fourth inning. Sherm Lol- lar's two-run homer, his fifth of the season, and Roy Siev- ers' 26lh highlighted the rally. Bob Shaw, ousted by Boston's four-run uprising in the sev enth, won his 12th against 10 losses. Dclock's setback was his seventh. Kansas City took advantage of two Oriole errors in the seventh inning to score three runs and beat Baltimore. Mis- cues by Ron Hansen and Brooks Robinson, coupled with three K.C. hits, turned the trick. Ray Herbert broke Baltimore's f o u r-game win ning streak with his ninth victory of the year. Jerry Walker, who gave up nine of the Athletics' 11 hits, lost his fourth decision. Harmon Killebrew's 23rd homer and 13th of the month helped Washington equal its victory total of last year at 63.

(UPI Radiotelephoto) Richie Lucas Said Future Grid Great Editors Note: The fol. lowing is the fourth of 21 dispatches tiling up the prospects of teams in the American Football league and the National Football league. By ED FEINEN United Press International Buffalo, N.Y. - (UPD - Even though Garrard (Buster) Ram sey seldom smiles these days, the head coach of the Ameri can Football league Buffalo Bills dimples deep whenever he watches Richie Lucas in action. Ramsey, a perfectionist who vows that "no man wins a job with me except by hard work," relaxed from his usual disciplined role the other day to lab Lucas as "one of the future greats" in pro football. The barrel-chested Ramsey indicated he had "thrown the book" at Lucas in six weeks of training at suburban East Aurora, N.Y., and that the Pcnn State All-Amerlcan stood up well under every pressure. "Here is a boy who is prob- ably the best all-around back to come out of college lhis year," Ramsey said. "Even so, it's going to take time for him to get accustomed to the faster, tougher pro game as a quarterback. "Fortunately, I can move at a slower pace with Lucas, tak ing more advantage of his all around ability. I'm inclined to use him as a flanker back where he will have the option of running or passing on most plays."

There have been disappoint ments, of course, and Ramsey isn't entirely satisfied with the progress of his team. "We have shown improve ment in each of our five ex hibition games," Ramsey ex plained, "but injuries in our defensive line have slowed development." At various times arm and leg ailments have sidelined such stalwarts as tackles Gene Grabosky, the giant from Syracuse; Chuck McMurtry, a 300-pounder from Whittier college; Texas Southern's Jim Sorcy, and Iowa State's Ed Muclhaupt. Sam Sanders, a fine linebacker from the Uni versity of Buffalo, also has been hampered by a bad knee. Ramsey admitted the Bills' strong points were a solid of fensive line, excellent quar terbacklng and good pass re ceivers. 1 Austin, Tex. - (UPI) - Ray Mathews of the Dallas Cow' boys will be reimbursed by workmen s compensation in surance while he is sidelined by two broken ribs.
