Webfoot
Goes for
By HAL WOOD
Fresno, Calif. -UP1) Univer
tity of Oregon, boasting the
greatest quartet of milers
eve? attending one college at
' the same time, goes after the
world four-mile relay mark
Saturday noon in the West
Coast Relays. -
It's the kick-off of the 36th
annual track and field carni
val which boasts the slogan
that this is where world rec
ords are broken.
Headlining the fearsome
foursome of Webfoots is Dyrol
Burleson, who has bettered
the four-minute barrier. His
best time this year is a nice
4:01.2. Archie San Romani,
son of a one-time great track
star at USC, has been clocked
in 4:03.8, Vic Reeve in 4:05.5
and Keith Forman 4:06.2.
If they all get together on
a best time they could crack
the world mark set by the
New Zealand team led by
Peter Snell and Murray Hal
berg, which is 16:23.8.
The track is fast, as usual,
for this year's meet. The
weather man says the tem
peratures will be between 70
and 80, with a slight wind
of 5-10 miles an hour.
Early Feature
The four-mile relay event
will be the early feature of
the show. During the night
events, the only two men in
history ever to clear the 16
foot mark will tangle for the
first time.
They are the Marines, John
Uelscs and David Tork-and
their battle may Inst through
most of the night. Besides
these two high-flying perform
crs, there are at least a half
dozen others who have clear
ed 15 feet or better-which
was a magic height just a few
years ago.
The 100-yard dash also
shapes up as a dandy, with
Harry Jerome, the Canadian
from Oregon; Larry Dunn of
Arizona and Dennis Johnson
of San Jose State all having
been clocked in 9.3-a tenth of
a second off the world record.
There's a seven-foot high
jumper in the competition,
too, in the person of Gene
Johnson of California; Dallas
Long, the USC ace, will be
tossing out past the 60-fool
mark in the shot; and Jay
Silvester of Fort Ord and
Rink Babka will be gunning
... on all
service and
repair work!

for that elusive 200-foot mark
in the discus.
The Webfoot team also will
take a shot at the distance
medley record of 9:35 set by
the Santa Clara Valley Youth
Village in 1060. Oregon set a
collegiate record of 9:36.2 in
that event earlier this year.
The other Oregon runner
competing will be defending
NCAA champion Jerry Tarr
in the high hurdles.
Oregon State will enter a
full team, headed by Dale
Story, who is after a world's
record in the 5,000 meters.
Story is credited with the best
three-mile time in the nation
this spring, 13:41.5. The
world's record is 13:35 by
Vladimir Kuts of Russia in
1957.
The Beavers also may
threaten some records in the
440, 880 and mile relays.
Lynn Eves, Tom Boswell,
Gary Comer and Bob Johnson
will run the shortest event,
with Norm Monroe replacing
Boswell in the 880. John Bell
may replace Eves in the mile
relay, in which Oregon State
has been clock in 3:10.4.

It was the seventh league

Von Goering Keeps
Crown With Draw
Fritz Von Goering is still
Northwest heavyweight wres
tling champion today follow
ing the fluke ending of his
match with Rocky Columbo
at Medford armory last night.
With falls standing at one
each, a near-riot resulted
when Von Goering threw Co
lumbo out of the ring and
wouldn't let him back in. In
retaliation Columbo pulled
the German out of the ring
and they went at it furiously
in the aisles.
Referee George Erickson of
Grants Pass counted to 20,
which is the maximum time
allowed for a wrestler to re
turn to the ring, and when
they were still lighting among
the spectators, he stopped the
match and declared it a draw,
since neither man had the re
quired two-fall advantage.
Columbo had taken the first
fall with a drop kick and
body press in 10 minutes and
Von Goering evened it five
minutes later with a knee to
Columbo's groin, a smash into
a turnbuckle and a body press.
During the second fall the
lights went out momentarily
and when they came back on
Von Goering was choking Co
lumbo. which softened him up
considerably for the fall.
Two Subiiitutions
Although the curd was a
good one, judging from the
reaction of the 538 paying
customers, it was marred by
two substitutions. Mr. Moto.
scheduled to appear in the
semi windup, was injured
Wednesday night and his
place taken by Kurt Von
roppenheini. The veteran
Portlander took two out of
three falls from Dick Garza
in a fast and rough match.
Von Poppenheim used a
half crab to grab the first
fall in 12 minutes but five
minutes later Garza had even
ed tilings with a full nelson.
Von Poppenheim needed six
minutes to get the decider,
using a body press after slow
ing the Michiuan youngster
with elbow smashes and chops

MeetOTI
At Klamath
Ashland-Thig afternoon in
Klamath Falls the Southern
Oregon Red Raider thinclads
went after their fifth dual
triumph of the season when
they tangled with te Oregon
Tech Owls on Modoc Field
Central Oregon from Bend
also was to have competed to
form a three-way tussle with
the two rival Oregon Colleg
iate Conference schools. .
The once-beaten charges of
Dan Bulkley will compete in
the Conference track and
field meet next Saturday at
Monmouth, and on Saturday,
May 26, the. will again vie
at Monmouth in the finals of
the District 2 NAIA meet.
Southern Oregon has al
ready beaten the OTI Owls
once this season, 103 to 23,
while in dual engagements be
tween the two schools over
the past 10 meets since 1955,
the Raiders have won six out
of the ten. Bulkly's crew won
103 to 28 and 108 to 23 last
year, and now have won the
last four meets in a row.
Also, the Raiders have
cracked the century barrier
in dual competition twice this
spring. They lost their only
match of the season to Hum
boldt State, 66 to 65, but came
back the same week to blast
Oregon College, 112 to 19.
Bulkley predicted .Thursday
that the Raider lineup for to
day's test would be "juggled
somewhat," mainly in the run
ning events where the Ash
landers claim the most
strength and depth.
"I tried to hold down the
score against OCE by switch
ing the lineup around," said
Bulkley, 'but that didn't
work. So, I'll try it again with
OTI."
"Either way," he went on,
"it's good work for all the
team ' members. And that's
what we need to be ready
for the conference meet next
week end."
