calm and cautious in the after
noon, thumped Ron Mitchell
Chico, Calif., 6 and 5 in the
men's division finals yester-
uay oi me azna annual cnam
pionships at Medford's Rogue
Valley Country club. He
thereby successfully defend
ed the crown he won in 1959
against one of the strongest
fields in tournament history.
Miss Siegmund dropped in
a short putt for a birdie four
on the 38th hole, second extra
one, to edge Mrs. Helen Da
vies, Medford, a former
champ, 1 up for the women's
laurels. Butler, Southern Ore
gon college prof, tripped
Ralph Swan, Royal Oaks club,
Vancouver, Wash., in the
senior men's finale.
Yesterday's conclude rs
wound up a week of heavy
links activity at the Medford
club. Golf has gone full blast
at Rogue Valley since Tues
day, Aug. 30, in the biggest
southern Oregon of the 32 and
Oregon's largest links event.
. Prall, who recorded six vic
tories in five days of match
play to sew up his second
straight diadem, had a scorch
ing four under par 68 for his
pre-lunch 18 holes Monday.
The ex-Salem high and Uni
versity of Oregon player
fashioned a 7 up lead while
touring the course in this siz
zling style. In the afternoon
he was three over RVCC
men's standard in his effort
to maintain advantage on his
foe.
The Prall-Mltchell engage
ment ended on the 31st hole
of a scheduled 36. Mitchell,
assistant Chico city engineer,
conceded a par putt to the
Salemite after a 25-foot round
house putt by- Prall stopped
just a couple of inches from
the cup., With Mitchell's ges
ture the hole was halved. The
match had been' dormie, 6 up
and 6 holes to go, after the
30th green (No. 12 on the
links). ,' ,
Miss Siegmund, 1 a d i e s
medalist here in 1955 and
Oregon Coast runner-up' this
summer, never trailed in her
match with Mrs. Davies. But
the Rogue Valley club titlist
and seven times SO winner
put on a game and spirited
rally at the finish, that had a
gallery of some 1.500 people
loudly cheering, and almost
overtook the Eugene lass.
Three down with 32 holes
played, Mrs. Davies won Nos.
34 35 and 36 with two birdies
and a par to send the contest
to extra greens.
Butler took the lead on
Swan on the fifth hole and
kept the rest of the way. He
had 3 up gaps twice and lost
them before establishing that
final margin when he closed
out the match on the 16th
hole of a slated 18.
First flight winners of the
tourney were Ed C. Hall,
Rogue Valley, in the men s
division, Sue Goodnight
Waverley, Portland, in the
women's and Ted Fleskes,
Royal Oaks, in the senior
men's. ,
Mitchell, three over par to
Prall's four under in the
morning, had a slight edge on

the Southern Oregon Golf championships, the women's division trophy; and Larry
played at the Rogue Valley Country club, Butler, Medford (right), nabbed the 18-hole
eye the trophies they won after Monday's senior division championship,
final competition. Salem's Bob Prall (left) (Knacksted Photo)
won his second straight men's title; Eu- '
Mitchell won the first hole
of the match with a four-foot
bird putt and took the seventh
when he was on the green
on two and just two inches
short on an 18-foot try. Prall
was short of the green on his
approach and rolled over the
hole on a nine foot putt. The
seventh was the last hole
Mitchell won until the 24th.
Prall won No. 4 with a good
roll to the green after nabbing
No. 3 with an eight-foot down
hill putt. On No. 5 his long
approach dropped about one
foot from the pin and he got
a gime bird for 2 up.. A 15-
footer for : a bird restored
Prall to 2 up on No. 8. On
No. 9 the Salem player hit
over the green to the rough
beside a tree but deftly got
on the green for a seven-foot
putt and a par. When Mitchell
three-putted, Prall went 3 up.
On No. 10 Prall dunked a
seven-foot shot for a bird and
a win. The two halved until
No. 15 when the match went
to 5 up. Mitchell was short
off the tee and chipped past
the hole. Prall was on the
green and moved up for a
three-foot putt for a par. On
No. 17 Prall was on the green
off the tee and almost put in
a long putt. He holed in three
strokes. Mitchell, over the
green, used up a shot to get
on.
On No. 18 Prall bopped in
an 11-foot roundhouser which
gave a bird and 7 up. Ron
missed a seven-footer.
Miss Siegmund was one
over par for the morning and
five over for the day, while
Helen was seven over stand
ard. '.
Mrs. Davies drew life on
No. . 33 hole of the match
when Miss Siegmund missed
a three-foot putt and the hole
was tied with bogies. The
match was then dormie. Helen
took No. 34 with a two foot
bird putt when Shirley muff
ed a three-foot try. The Med
ford player took No. 35 with
a par when Miss siegmuna
overshot the green off the tee
and Mrs. Davies hit the car
pet. On No. 36 (18th hole of the
course) Mrs. Davies was be
low the green on her ap
proach, chipped about 125
feet to 15 inches from the cup
and sank a putt for a birdie
four. Shirley's approach faded
into the rough in trees at the
right of the green. Her third
shot was onto the apron 18
feet from the pin and her
fourth shot, a putt, was three
feet short and on her fifth
stroke the ball hit the pin and
rolled on. She took a double
bogey. .
The two par-fived on 37,
the first extra. Davies had a
long putt dip in and out.
On No. 36 Miss siegmuna
was to the side of the green
and Mrs. Davies well short on
respective second shots.
Helen's No. 3 was to within
18 feet of the cup but Shirley
popped up about 14 inches
from the pin. The Medford'
He's long putt rolled to the
side but she made a lV4-foot-
er. Then Shirley ended it by
putting in her short shot.
Shirley had a 3 up gap after
the first three holes of the
match on a bogey and two
pars. She lost No. S to a
Davies' bird but won seven
and eight with a bird of her
own and a par for 4 up, the
widest gap of the tussle. Helen
fought back to win four of the
next five holes and even the
match. Numbers 9, 11 and 13
were on pars and No. 10 on a
golf rule birdie three when
Miss Siegmund knocked
Helen's ball into the cup be
fore saying she was conced
ing. Mrs. Davies' ball was ly
ing three at the time.
Miss Siegmund won No. 15
with a par and No. 18 with a
bird against a bogey when
Helen had trap trouble. That
made it 2 up at lunch. On No.
20 Helen cut the gap-with a
four-foot bird putt. But 2 up
was restored when Mrs. Da
vies triplt bogied on No. 27
for a seven. She sliced into
trees at the right on her sec
ond shot and hit over the
green on three. Her chip was
too strong on four. On a 40
foot putt situation she went
right by the cup, then missed
an eight footer.
Helen took 28 when Shirley
triple putted but Siegmund
nabbed 31 with a par when
Mrs. Davies chipped too hard
and 32 with a bird when the
Eugene gal pitched up for a
short putt.
Spectacular hole of the
match was No. 24, sixth of the
afternoon. Mrs. Davies putted
in from 40 feet away for a
bird. Shirley, not to be out
done, pitched from the side
hill 10 feet below the level
of the green and her chip, a
20-footer, went into the cup
to tie the hole.
In Butler's match, Swan
grabbed No. 2 with a par.
Larry evened it on No. 4 with
a par against a double bogey
by Swan who went to the
right of the green, hit across
it, then pitched short. Butler
took the lead on nos. a ana o
with pars when Swan missed
the greens. A 10-loot putt on
No. 8 gave Butler a 3 up
spread. But the professor
double bogied on No. 9 to lose
it, hitting to the right of the
carpet then into the trap.
Numbers 11 and 12 were
traded on three-putts.
.' The difference was 1 up
when Swan hit a fine recov
ery shot and Butler chipped
too far on No. 13. Larry won
No. 15 with a par on a missed
putt by Swan. He took No.
16 by chipping to within eight
inches of the hole for a gi' me
putt.

Pott Captures
Dallas Match
Dallas, Tex. - IUPD - Young
Johnny Pott, who doesn't be
lieve in practicing on t h e
tour, decided today not to
leave the golf tour after all
in the wake of his Dallas
Open golf tournament victory
-the first in his four years
as a pro.
The former Louisiana State
star from Shreveport pulled
out today for next weekend's
Salt Lake City Open with
$3,500 prize money in his
pocket and that rare confi
dence that comes only with
triumph.
The 24-year-old Pott had to
go three extra holes to win
a sudden death playoff from
veterans Ted Kroll of Fort
Lauderdale, Fla., and Bo Win-
ninger of Odessa, Tex., after
the trio tied with five under
par 275s at the end of regu
lation play.
Coast Guard Saves
Pleasure Boaters
Depoe Bay (UPU Two men
escaped injury or drowning
Monday when their 19-foot
pleasure boat was crashed
against the rocks by a wave.
Jack and Albert Hulette,
Oregon City, were returning
through heavy ground swells
when their boat was hurled
forward by a breaker as they
neared the entrance to the
bay. It was hurled against
the rocks on the south side
of the bay entrance.
Jack was thrown clear of
the boat and rocks, and Al
bert was able to cling to the
overturned boat. Coast Guard
men push the boat in toward
the rocks and helped pull the
men from the water.
Grants Pass Man
Shows Pen Champion
Salem - L. H. Doerfllng,
Grants Pass, displayed s
champion pen of Chester
White barrows at the Oregon
State Fair.
His pen of three 210 to
250-pound barrows was cham
pion in that class, and also
won the grand champion.
Oregon Runners
Back in Pack
Behind Elliott
Rome - IUPU - Otis Davis, ex
University of Oregon star,
flashed to a new world's rec
ord in the Olympic 400-mctcrs
today by Dyrol Burleson and
Jim Grelle of Oregon failed to
place as Herb Elliott set a
new mark in the 1, 500-meter
run.
Davis won the 400 meters
in the time of 44.9 seconds in
a photo finish over Carl Kauf
mann of Germany, who had
the same time.
The Oregon ace, who barely
qualified for the Olympics,
leaped and jumped on the In
field when he got word he
had won.
Burleson was sixth and
Grelle eighth in the 1, 500-me
ter metric mile.
Burly'g Time Good
But Burleson's time of 3:40.9
was the equivalent of a 3:59.9
mile and was six full seconds
faster than when he won the
U.S. Trials to compete in the
Olympic games.
Grelle's time was 3:45.
Oregon's hopes suffered an
other setback Monday when
Dave Edstrom had to wilh
draw from the decathlon be
cause of a pulled muscle after
the third event. He had 2,107
points in the shotput, 100-
metcrs and broad jump before
bowing out.
