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.)

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. Don Lee, lifted in the sev
enth inning when he pulled a
shoulder muscle, was credited
with his sixth win. Bob Bruce
took his fifth defeat.

Braves to
Three Hits
By United Preis International
Stu miller, a last minute
replacement for ailing Billy
O'Dell. held Milwaukee to
three singles Saturday while
pitching the San Francisco
Giants to a 3-1 victory over
the second-place Braves.
The league leading Pitts
burgh Pirates were at St.
Louis for a night game. Cin
cinnati and Los Angeles were
not scheduled.
O'Dell, who has a stiff
neck, gave way to Miller on
the warmup slab just before
game time and the. boyish
junk bailer stuck around to
post his fourth triumph
against five losses.
Miller had a one-hitler go
ing into the eighth inning.
Then Joe Adcock cracked a
single and tallied on another
single by pinchitter Wes Cov
ington and a pair of infield
outs. Miller ended the inning
by striking out pinchhitter
Lee Maye with men on sec
ond and third. He fanned six
with his aggravating slow
stuff.

in the seventh after giving
up four straight hits. It was
Burdctte's eighth defeat. He
has 15 wins.
Felipe Alou and Willie
Mays smashed home runs
with the bases empty for San
Francisco. Alou ended Bur
dette's string of consecutive
scoreless innings at 32 and
23 when he lined one off
the left field foul pole in the
fourth. It was his sixth of the
season.
Mays sliced his 28th over
the right field fence just in
side the foul marker dur
ing the sixth inning to give
Miller a two-run cushion.
Both homers came with two
out.
Ernie Banks drove In his
1 100th run of the season in the
first inninR and then scored
the winning run in the eightn
as the Chicago Cubs kept the
Phillies in the Cellar with a
5-4 victory. Banks' century
RBI tied a club record of
100 rans driven in during
five different seasons estab
lished by Hack Wilson.
Don Elslon, put out a Phil-
lie uprising in the seventh, to
win his seventh game. Chris
Short was the loser.
Stan Mustal beat Pittsburgh
for the second straight game
when he hit his 14th homer
with two out in the ninth in
ning Saturday night to give
St. Louis a 5-4 victory ana
move the Cardinals within
6V4 games of the first place

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."

his role of runner-passer, the
Buffalo Bills have been rated
one of the early favorites in
the American league's Initial
campaign.
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

development."

versity of Buffalo, also has
been hampered by a bad knee.

strong points were a solid of
