Jim Beatty. .- -
Beatty, a determined runt
o! a guy at 5 feet 8 inches,
hadn't run a race since March
and several days ago still was
bothered by disturbing leg
injuries.
But the diminutive runner
returned with a bang Friday
niKht when he raced to
world record bettering time
of 8:29.8 in winning the two-
mi's during the Southern Pa-
cific Amateur Athletic union

It was the fastest recorded

Murray Halberg.
And it smashed the all-time
best by an American citizen,
the 8:42 5 mark established
earlier by Oregon's Dyrol
Burleson who along with
Beatty could give the United
States its most powerful dis

along.
Right behind Beatty was
Los Angeles Track club team
mate Grelle, who finished in
8:36 after helping set the pace
for the first mile.
But both Beatty and Grelle
give much credit for their
success to Igloi, the man who
coached the great Hungarian

At least that was the specu

Thursday's windup of the
IOC's 59th annual conference.
The IOC delegates, by a
vote of 28-8, passed a rule
to cut the program of the
1968 summer games from 22
to 18 sports. Mayer sHid the
IOC would decide at next
year's annual meeting, sched

Kenya, in October, which
sports would be dropped.
Mayer said that it was his

Might as well get out the
slide rules. That battle for
first place In the Northwest
league is getting close.
The Salem Dodgers made it
that way Friday night with
7-5 and 9-1 victories over Lew
iston to move to within four
percentage points of Wenatch-
ee.
Wenatchee hung tough,
however, defeating Tri-City
4-0. Yakima took Eugene 8-2
in their opener and Eugene
then won the nightcap 7-6 in
other action.
Art Thompson got the job
done for Wenatchee with a
three-hit shutout. The Chiefs
got all they needed with a
run in the sixth and then
added three in the eighth on
four walks, a hit batter and
a double by Danny Murphy.
Bill Kelso blasted a grand
slam homer for Salem in the
fourth inning and the Dodg
ers got three more in the sixth
to take Lcwiston in their
opener.
Tom Murray stifled Lcwis
ton with six hits in the night
cap and the Dodgers struck
for three runs in the first
inning.
Jay Carty's three-run hom
er in the sixth was all Yaki
ma needed to down Eugene
in the first half of their twin
bill. In the nightcap, Arlcy Kan
gas scored on a sacrifice fly
in the fifth for the run that
gave the Emeralds the win.

What are you staring at?
Haven't you ever
seen a station wagon before?
Breaking traditions is a kind of a thing with
Volkswagen. They once introduced a car that looked
like a beetle. So they felt that a Volkswagen Station
Wagon oght to bring something new to the party,
too.
This one seats 8 people or a small elephant. And
It's oply 9 inches longer than a Volkswagen Sedan.
For elephants, play pens and pianos, there's a
doorway almost 4 feet wide. And for long things
like a tree, you get a hole in the roof. It not only
lets the tree out but the sunshine in.
You get the headroom of a bus. And 23 windows
to look out of. And a sun-roof. (Moon-roof after dark.)
And for $54.00 more, a walk-thru seat so you can
easily swat the children.
What does it sell for? With regular seal, $2897.00.
Maybe you've never seen a station wagon before,
at that.
