Charleston
New Home
For IL Club
Charleston, W. Va. -fOPD-
The San Juan Marlins of the
International Baseball league,
lured on by a $1 a year ball
park rental fee, announced
Wednesday they were leaving
Puerto Rico for Charleston.
The Marlins will finish, out
the season with Charleston's
Watt Powell Park, formerly
used by the old Charleston
Senators of the American As
sociation, as home base. The
rental will be $1 annually.
San Juan General Manager
Joe Ryan said the club would
meet Jersey City here Friday
in the opened of a three-game
series that ends Sunday. The
Marlins have 49 more home
games scheduled after the Jer
sey City series.
Ryan said the switch to
Charleston was being made
"because we don't wish to be
responsible for the insolvency
of the league or other clubs."
The club ran into poor fan
support from the outset of the
campaign this season and sev
eral of the league's owners
have been pushing for a trans
fer of the franchise back to
the mainland.
United Press International
"We left a winner.''
The San Juan Marlins had
that consolation at least today
when they left Puerto Rico
for their new state-side home
in Charleston, W. Va;, because
right down to the bitter end
they gave the fans a . good
show . ! .
Less than 1,000 fans turned
out to see the Marlins' last
game in San Juan Wednesday
but they saw a thriller in
which the Marlins pulled out
a 5-4 14-inning victory over
the Richmond Virginians.
More Spikers
Could Qualify
In Prep Meets
There may be more quali
fiers from Districts 6 A-l and
6 A-2 in the Oregon state track
meets for the two classifies
lfons this year than in past
seasons.
-For many years districts
have qualified the first and
second placers in each event.
These performers will get
berths again this year plus
others who meet certain mini
mum standards of time,
height and distance in their
district meets.
v.yA trackman meeting the
standard for an event gets the
State meet berth providing his
-school does not have more
than two contestants in the
"event. ' , : '
' Minimum standards are:
High hurdles - :15: low
hurdles - 20.3 100 - ilO.l:
220 - :22.5; 440 - :51.5; 880 -2:01i
mile - 4:32; relay - 1:32;
shot put - 52 feet; discus -150
feet; javelin - 180 feet;
broad jump - 22 feet; high
jump - 6 feel; pole vault -12-3.
- ,
The standards system is on
a one-year trial basis. It Is
pointed out that first and sec
ond placers in districts go to
state whether or not the stand
ards are met. )

COBB IN HOSPITAL
Atlanta (UPDTy Cobb, the
grand old man of baseball,
rested comfortably in Emory
university hospital here today
where he is undergoing obser
vation and test for chronic
conditions of diabetes and
arthritis. Hospital spokesmen
said the 74-year-old Cobb,
who was admitted Monday
for the second time this year,
was in "satisfactory" condi
tion. Cobb, himself, described

Cavemen, Tornadoes
A-1 Meet Favorites
Grants Pass high and Med
ford again loom high as the
leading contenders for the
team title when the District
6 A-l track and field meet is
contested Saturday at the Ash
land high oval.
A check of the best efforts
among scantclads in the dis
trict (Southern Oregon con
ference) this season shows
Medford, GP and Crater with
the bulk of the top times,
heights and distances. It may
be the scoring done by some
of the lesser lights, however,
that will determine the' team
title. Depths will count con
siderably and GP and Med
ford have more depth of tal
ent than the other schools.
Still, the district team
crown will be something of
an incidental and secondary
thing. Main objective is to
qualify as many athletes' as
possible for the state meet on
the following week end at
Corvallis.
The meet will start at 10
a.m. Saturday with prelimi
naries in the high hurdles,
shot put, broad jump and
javelin set for that time. Oth
er morning prelims are plan
ned for the 100 and 220-yard
sprints, . the discus and the
high and low hurdles.
Finals get underway at
2:30 p.m. -
Ashland high is host for the
meet for the first time since
the early 1950s and is having
the meet at its own site for
the first time since the late
1940s.
' Boys may enter two field
and one track events, two
track and one field event or
three field events, plus the
relay.
Record of the best perform
ances shows Medford with the
top showings in five events
and a tie for best in the other;
Ashland's Voris has the best
marks in the high and low
hurdles. Crater's D w i g h t
James has the top mark in
the high jump and the
Comet's Gary Wald is tied for
tops in the 100-yard sprint.
For Klamath Falls, Allen
Phillips has the best throw in
the javelin and Charley Rich-
ey the best time in the 220.
Grants Pass's Ken Marshall
lists the fastest half mile time.
Mike Curtis of the Cavemen
is tops in the discus and Dave
Ricks and Jay Hughes of GP
best in the pole vault.
Medford's Phil Humphreys
is tied with Wald for the
speediest 100. Other Torna
does with bests are Hi Martin
in the mile, Bob Mclntyre in
the 440, Tom Bortis in the
shot put, Mike Hood in the
broad jump and the relay
team of Hood, Humphreys,
Mclntyre and Kent Blew.
There's always the factor
that best marks will not be
matched. ' And, there are in
stances where youths with the
best marks have been beaten
or tied by athletes of other
schools this season. -,
