To Track Victory
Ashland Sophomore sen

up his fourth straight triple
victory of the track and field
season as Southern Oregon's
Red Raiders crushed Shasta
Junior college 89-33 in a dual
meet on Fuller field here
Tuesday afternoon. ,
Triumph was also Raider's
fourth consecutive dual meet
win of the season. A whop
ping total of eight meet rec
ord, two field and one school
mark fell as the men of SOC
' nabbed 12 of the 14 events
and tied for first in another,
j Bransom easily won the
100-yard dash in a swift 9.9
' seconds, the 220 in 22.2, and
' the broad jump with a leap
of 21 feet even in picking up
the triple. The Jacksonville
' speedster is undefeated in all
three events this season.
Adding a pair of triumphs
each to the Raider total were
senior Len Dobry who won
the shot put with a toss of
43 feet, 11V4 inches, and the
discus in 128, 8V4 inches, and
sophomore Howard Hartman
who skimmed the high hurd
les in 15.9 and the lows in
25.6. Both were new meet
record times.
Freshman Harold Haugen,
.owner ,of the school mile
standard, added the 880 yard
mark to his collection with
a record-breaking'2:00.7 clock
ing. Another freshman, Jerry
Arndt, held the old mark of
' 2:01.7 set earlier this spring.
' Arndt Wins Mile
Arndt, switching to the
' mile, took that event in a
; time of 4:41.8 for one of the
records.
' A pair of Phoenix frosh,
i Ron Baker and Ken 1 Jorde,
; placed second and third be
hind Dobry in the shot to
give the Raiders a sweep in
that event. SOC also swept
the 220, where Kern Bennett
and Rich Lenhert finished be
hind the fleet Bransom.
The other meet mark to fall
was to Terry Boatman and
his 10:09.8 clocking in the
two-mile.
Soph Ora Bannister added
another Raider first with a
51.9 time in the one-lap 440
dash.
The speedy foursome of
Bransom, Bannister, "Ken
Coffman and Chuck Swingle

Ashland-Sound hitting and
pitching on the part of the
Southern Oregon college Red
Raiders paved the way for a
9-1 trouncing of arch - rival
Oregon Tech in an Oregon
Collegiate conference baseball
game here Tuesday afternoon.
Shortstop Dave Hughes'
two-run homer in the first in
ning got the league-leading
Raiders off and running to
their fifth straight OCC win
without a loss.
Solid hurling by Don Van
nice, Earle Tichenor and
Larry Carr put the third-place
Owls down on nine hits and
one unearned run which was
the result of two Raider field
ing errors in the fifth inning.
Vannice started for the
Raiders, but retired after two
innings after giving up four
Tech hits. Tichenor, the win
ner, took over at that point
and gave up only five Owl
safeties while' striking out
two before giving way to Carr
who hurled the final Inning.
The stocky Raider freshman
fanned all three men he faced.
Hughes' roundtripper in the
first, a line shot over the
right-center field fence at the
360 foot mark, chased home
teammate Joe Funderburg
who had been aboard via an
Owl error.
Sacrifice Flies
Two more SOC counters
came home in the third as
Funderburg was again safe on
an Owl miscue, followed by a
single over the, shortstop's
glove by Damien ftossetto and
timely sacrifice flies by
Hughes and Kerm McLemore.
Another Tech miscue put
John Buck on first to lead off
the fourth frame. John Cook,
the Raider's leading hitter of
the afternoon with a three-for-four
performance, singled to
right. Eldon Francis sacri
ficed with Buck scoring all
the way from second and
Cook moving to third, scoring
seconds later as he stole home
against OTI loser, Gene Bran
son. ,
Two more Raider markers
crossed the plate in the fifth
as McLemore singled, catcher
Jess Munyon doubled off the
fence in deep right, and Cook
rifled a single which scored
both runners.
Branson who was reached
for. 10 SOC hits in the first
five innings, was pulled by
OTI coach Jim Cordial in
favor of Max McKibbon in
the sixth. McKibbon allowed
the Raiders only two hits the
rest of the way, one by Mike
Parsons in 'the sixth and
another by Cook : in the
seventh.
Lone OTI Tally
Cook's one-baser put Ray
Endicott, who had been hit by
a pitched ball, on third from
which he scored when Francis
was safe on the fifth OTI er
ror of the game.
Oregon , Tech's lone tally
came in the fifth off Tichenor
as Branson was safe on Mc
Lemore's bobble at third, a
throwing error by . Buck at
first, a fielders choice which
erased Bransom at third and
a run-scoring single to left
center by Don Gresdel which
plated Ramseyer.
Three timely double plays
by the Raider defense wiped
out Owl scoring threats in
the fifth, sixth and eighth
innings.
McLemore and Francis each
had two hits to back up the
deadly one - two punch of
Hughes and Cook.

NFL Studies Plans for Disaster
San Francisco -4UPD- Nation
al Football league executives
went into session today to
study proposals for a disaster
plan that might in the future
affect their loop, one of the
biggest money making organi
zations in sports history. ' :
The officials will consider
a program for restocking a
team in case it should happen
to lose all its players and
coaches in a plane accident, a
hotel fire or some other inci
dent such .as a bomb being
dropped on training quarters.
"We have no set plan in
mind," said Commissioner
Pete Rozelle, "but it is proba
ble that something will be
worked out along the lines we
used to stock the Dallas Cow
boys and Minnesota Vikings.-'
In this plan each club made
available a few players-usual-ly
second-line talent.
Trade Ideas
The first two days of the
convention mostly involved
general managers and coaches.
They traded ideas on how to
handle business problems.
Meanwhile trade rumors
floated around the lobbies of
the Fairmont hotel, and most
were denied as fast as they
materialized.
One was that the San Fran
cisco Forty Niners would send
veteran quarterback Y. A. Tit
tle to Los Angeles. The Rams
then would send either Zeke
Bratkowski or Frank Ryan,
both quarterbacks, to the
Green Bay Packers. The Pack
ers then would send one of
their top young players to the
Forty Niners.
"So help me," said Elroy
Hirsch, general manager of
the Rams, "I haven't even
talked to the Green Bay Pack
ers. At least about this."
