: . Based on the best times
among Southern Oregon con
ference athletes this season,
at least three marks could
tumble Saturday when the
District 6 A-l track meet is
held at Ashland High school.
The meet will have pre
liminaries starting at 10 a.m.
and finals beginning at 2:30
R.m; Ashland, Crater, Klam
ath Union, Grants Pass and
Medford will contend.
. Standards most threatened
re; those for tne 4u-yara
dash, the 860-yard relay and
the half-mile. Medford's Bob
Mclntyre last week toured the
quarter-mile In :49.2. District
record is :4S.6. The same
afternoon the Tornado relay
crew of Mclntyre, Mike Hood,
Kent Blew and Phil Humph'
reys ran in 1:29.5, which Is
A.f seevnus ihbici umn w,w
record of 1:31.2.
Both Medford times are
fastest reported in the state,
In the half-mile Ken Mar
shall, Grants Pass, and Bob
Rix, Medford, finished one-
two in a race last week in tne
respective times of 2:00.5 and
2:00.7. The standard is 2:01.
Voris Equals
: One other district mark has
been equalled by Ashland's
Bob Voris with :19.6 in the
low hurdles.
Close battles for first and
second spots and state meet
berths seem likely in most of
the events. In some contests
there are strong favorites, al
though not one of the par
ticipants is Immune to upset.
' Medford's HI Martin looks
to be the favorite in the mile
with the Tornadoes' Tom
Bortls top contender In the
shot put. Allen Phillips, Klam
ath Falls, should take the
javelin. The Medford relay
crew has by three seconds the
best performance in . that
event.
Mclntyre's 440 time is by
.7 of a second tops but the
Medfordite could be chal
lenged by Grants Pass's Al
Staley.
' In the pole vault Dave Ricks
and Jay Hughes of Grants
Pass have the best marks at
12 feet 3 inches, but rivalry
could be nip and tuck in the
event. Ashland's Dave Col
well has gone one-half inch
over 12 feet. Last Saturday
Medford's Bill Charley tied
with Grants Pass's Dan Mcln
tlre for tops in a dual meet at
11-9 as both beat Hughes and
Ricks. Mclntire has spent most
of the school year recuperat
ing from a knee Injury,
Hurdles Contenders
In the high hurdles Bob
Voris of Ashland, Hood and
Walt Ayres of Medford, Ron
Cowin of Grants Pass and
John Champ of Crater are top
contestants. In the lows its
among Voris, Gil Smith of
Grants Pass, Hood and An
drews of Medford and Champ.
In the 100-yard dash Gary
Wald and Jereal Brown of
Crater, Humphreys and Mc
lntyre of Medford have the
best times and challengers In
clude Charles Rlchey of Klam
ath Falls and Ray Meek and
Fred Higgenbotham of Grants
Pass. Rlchey, Wald and Hum
phreys are top 220 rimers.
Wald is a contender as are
Meek and Mike Pllklngton of
CP. -----
Dennis Alertis of GP and
Bill . Dahlstrom and Dennis
Brumback are among top run
ners in the mile. Rix can't be
counted out in the 440 nor can
Ron Calkins of Medford in the
half. Grants Pass looms as the
chief relay challenger to Medford.
Les Husted of Klamath, and
Dave Molloy of Crater, are
among the leading shot put
ters. -,
' The discus could prove a
real battle. Mike Curtis of
Grants . Pass has the best
throw in the district but has
lost to Medford's Wayne
Cowan. Crater's Bill Kropp
has outdone Cowan s best in a
losing . cause to Curtis'i top
heave. .. '
Dwight James of Crater
and Clyde Murray and Bob
Shepard of GP may battle it
out in the high jump. Hood
and Scott Eaton of Medford,
Tom Hathaway of GP and
Voris head the field in the
broad jump.
Grants Pass is defending
champ and will be challenged
mainly - by Medford for the
team crown.
In addition to first and sec
ond placers in each event,
trackmen who meet minimum
standards can qualify for the
state meet. If bests during the
season are matched, District
6 may send more than two to
Corvallis in the low hurdles,
the 100, the 220, the 440, the
discus and the javelin.

Red Raiders
To Vie at
La Grande
. Ashland - Southern Ore
gon's Red Raiders, rated a sec
ond place finisher behind
strong and powerful Portland
State,- left Thursday for La
Grande and the annual Ore
gon Collegiate confer ence
track and field championships.
Also departing for La
Grande with the Raider track-
sters was Al Aklns' SOC golf
squad which will enter OCC
competition on Saturday on
the Eastern Oregon college
campus.
Raider track coach Dan
Bulkley figures the Raiders
to show up strong in the
sprints and hurdles events,
with the power-packed PSC
Vikings grabbing off most of
the other events, i
"We're as ready as we'll
ever be, with the exception
of Bannister (Ora) and Hart
man (Howard)," said Bulkley
as he left with his 25-man
squad. Bannister, a sophomore
quarter-miler from Paisley,
Ore., suffered a pulled leg
muscle in practice last Tues
day. Hartman, the Raiders'
top hurdler and holder of the
school record in the 180-yard
highs with a 25-seconds flat
clocking, has been troubled
by a sore foot this past week.
"We hope that both will be
ready by Saturday," comment
ed Bulkley prior to the trip.
Southern Oregon's hopes in
the sprints rest with the fleet
trio of, Doyle Bransom, Kerm
Bennett and Pat 'Conley. All
three were clocked with 10
seconds flat centuries or bet
ter in last Friday's 103-28 win
over Oregon Tech. Bransom
hit the tape in :09.8, Bennett
was a close second in 0.9 and
Conley was timed in 10 flat.
Aklns' Raider golf crew is
defending OCC champion and
looks like all but a sure bet
to repeat this season. The
Raiders boast 15-0 and 11-1
wins over Oregon Tech and
Oregon college In dual meet
action this spring while also
taking an 11-4 loss from Uni
versity of Oregon last Friday.
Members of the Raider links
crew Include senior captain
Gordy Marlatt, runner-up in
last spring's medalist play In
the OCC, Phil Mongraln, Tony
ord and Steinke led an Ore
gon sweep In the mile with a Lopez, Bob Jones and Dick
sparkling 4:14.6 time. I Wood.
increased their league lead
over .Vancduver to four full
games. '
Using their pesky habit of
coming from behind, the
Rainiers won it with three in
the seventh. This splurge was
made up of three singles, a
Salt Lake error, a sacrifice
fly and a walk.
In other games, Tacoma
bumped Vancouver 3-2 and
2- 1, San Diego took Spokane
8-5 in 10 innings and Port
land beat Hawaii 4-1.
Ty Cline whacked a three
run homer for Salt Lake in
the fifth to put the Bees ahead
3- 2. Then- came the three
Rainier , runs in the seventh
along with more heroics in
the ninth.
Salt Lake pushed one run
across in the ninth and had
the sacks loaded when right
fielder Lou Clinton hauled in
a long fly and then cut down
the tying tally with a great
throw to the plate.
Ernie Bowman and veteran
Dusty Rhodes were the big
men in Tacoma's twin tri
umphs over Vancouver.
Bowman lined a bases-load
ed single in the eighth inning
the first extra frame of the
opener - for the 3-2 decision.
Rhodes drove in the win-
ning run in the ninth inning of
the nightcap with a blooper
single to right that scored
manny Mota from second,
Frank Torree of the Moun-
ties had a two-run homer in
the opener.
Relief hurler Verle Tlefen-
thaler won the opener while
Ron Herbel won his fourth
without a loss in the nightcap,
Veteran Don Choate -find
Craig Anderson scattered
eight hits for the Portland vic
tory with the decision going
to Choate. The Beavers went
ahead for keeps in the sixth
on a two-run homer by Jim
Hickman.
Hawaii got its lone run in
the third on a single by pitch.
er Bob Giggle and a double
by Bob Prescott.
A costly error and a two-
run single by Hector Rod
riguez in the tenth carried
San Diego to its victory for
San Diego.
Tony Roig of the Padres hit
a two-run homer as did Lee
Handley of the losers.

Four Marks in Danger

Bob Chapman, Henley, and
Dave Kennedy, Illinois Valley
with :15.4 and :15.5 in the
high hurdles, Chapman with
:21.1 in the low hurdles and
Mike Consbruck, Phoenix,
with 195-614 in the javelin:
Myrtle Creek with 12 has
the most berths in the meet.
Lakeview last week qualified
for 11. Rogue River and Suth
