Marathon Run Held at Boston
Opener Taken
By Virginians
United Press International
" It took the Richmond Vir
ginians just one game to take
over first place in the Inter
national league thanks to the
talents of a trio of ex-major
leaguers.
Pitchers Bill Short and Fred
Kipp and outfielder Jim Pi
soni supplied all that was
needed Tuesday night when
the Virginians opened their
season with a 3-0 victory over
the Rochester Red Wings
Short and Kipp, who came
jon in the ninth inning, com
bined to limit the Red Wings
to six hits and Pisoni ac
counted for all Richmond's
runs with a three-run homer
in the first inning.
, Short, Kipp and Pisoni are
all former major leaguers who
realize they're' only a tele
phone call away from rejoin
ing the present New York
Yankees.

the tour is granted, which he
said should be forthcoming
within a few days.

Cutting Horse
Contest Part
Of Sportsfair
First cutting horse contest
to be held in Jackson county
will be an event.of the Crater
Lions club Sportsfair - Home
and Garden show, Dick Haw
kins, general chairman of the
fair, has announced.
Horse show time will be
8 p.m. on Friday and Satur
day, May 5 and 6. Show en
tries must be in by May 2.
They should be mailed to Ed
Anderson .route 4, box 465,
Medford, Hawkins said.
Here for the event as per
formance judge will be one
of the outstanding judges and
trainers in the world, Mary
Harbison, North Sacramento,
Calif.
There will be trophies, rib
bons and jackpot prizes to
fifth place. The show is open
to all interested persons.
There will be eight' events,
open cutting, rein class, Hack
amore class, English pleasure,
costume class, western pleas
ure for ages 12 and under,
western , pleasure for. ages
13-18 and team roping. '
Rein and Hackamore classes
are reported unusual to this
area.
The horse show will be at
the Jackson county fair
grounds, adjacent to the Na-
of 18,000 which booed Brown
for several minutes when the
decision was announced.
Brown stopped Charnley in
five rounds in their first title
brawl in Houston in 1959 and
was a 7-4 favorite for their re
match. But this time, Joltin'
Joe found Charnley a much
stronger opponent. He hurt
his right hand with a solid
poke that opened a cut on the
Englisman's nose in the fifth
round and then had to weath
er an all-out rally by Charn
ley in the final three rounds.
Charnley, who weighed a
half pound more than Brown
at 134'4, put up a courageous
fight although he was both
ered "quite a bit" by blood
flowing from his damaged
nose. As the battle neared its
finish, Dave tried gamely for
knockout and did stagger
the champion twice in the
13th and 14th rounds.
Entering the final round,
the bout was even on the UPI
scorecard. Charnley again
went all-out in the 15th, but
at the finish referee Tommy
Little walked to the Yank's
corner and raised his hand in
token of victory.
Arthur Boggis, Charnley's
manager, was extremely bit
ter over the decision,
"In any other country but
England, Dave would have
won the fight," Boggis said
"By my reckoning, the last
three rounds swayed the fight
in Charnley's favor.
It was Brown's 19th success
ful defense of the title he won
back in 1956 by outpointing
Wallace (Bud) Smith at New
Orleans. His end of the gross
gate of $112,000 amounted to
$50,400 while Churnley earn
ed $28,000.

Bowerman's Ducks Prep
For Meet With Trojans
Eugene - (UPB - Coach Bill
B o w e r m a n's University of
Oregon track and field team
was preparing today for its
big effort of the season against
Southern California's Trojans
at Palo Alto Saturday with a
determination to win but with
the facts of life against vic
tory. Oregon will compete with
the Trojans and Stanford in a
three-way meet which also
will be scored on a dual meet
basis.
The Webfoots were stung re
cently by criticism of the
school and athletic director
Leo Harris in a Los Angeles
talk by Jess Mortenson, the
Southern California track
coach.
But whether this will be
enough incentive to give the
Webfoots the push they need
was uncertain.
Bowerman said: "We could
win the meet with 68 points
if we were hot as pistols and
everything went wrong from
the USC standpoint." But, he
added, "It's more likely we'll
end up with about 58-60 points
based on what we should hon
estly expect to do."
Local track authorities give
USC an edge.
Oregon will be without pole
vaulier Phil Paquin, who suf
fered a pulled tendon against
Oregon State last week.
Boston -(UPD- A record per
formance was considered a
definite possibility in today's
65th annual Boston AA mara
thon that got underway at
noon in suburban Hopkinton.
Gentle winds from the
north to northeast were fig
ured to help the runners on
their 26-mile, 385-yard trek to
the Exeter street finish line in
Boston's Back Bay.
The three favorites - Finns
Eino Oksahen, 29, and Olavi
Manninen, 32, and school
teacher Johnny Kelley, 30, of
Groton, Conn. - all. prefer to
run in cool weather.

derson, 38, missing a month

and saw a flash on the moun
tain the afternoon Judge An
derson disappeared. She : re
ported the incident the same
