College Coaches' Feud
With AAU Jeopardizing
U.S. Track Supremacy
Central Point Cheney Studs
pointed out that 1,000 people
turned out last Saturday night
at Klamath Falls to see the
Falcons play Grants Pass. He
pointed to the tightly bunch-
ed race in the division and
pointed out that the same
brand of Legion ball as seen
at Klamath is played at White
City. Askwith's Studs take
on the Falcons at White City
on Friday.
Medford, 3-1 in the loop
along with Central Point, has
the chance to regain first
place alone in the circuit to
night. Grants Pass, however,
is just a game off the leader's
pace with 2-2 and is capable
of spilling the Cokes. To
night's game is considered a
tossup despite previous Med
ford wins over the Climate
city club.
Stu Young is ticketed for
pitching duties for Medford
this evening with the Grants
Pass choice among J i m
Thompson, Jerry McCormack
and Lyman Kiesecker.

Inability To
Win at Home
Hurts Dodgers
By ALEX KAHN
Los Angeles - (UPD - The in
ability to win at home proved
costly today to the Los An
geles Dodgers, who were a
half a game behind the San
Francisco Giants in the Na
tional league standings.
The Dodgers dropped out
of first place Tuesday night
when they lost a 2-1 deci
sion to the Milwaukee Braves
while the Giants were beat
ing Cincinnati.
The Dodgers got good pitch
ing, but not good enough to
match the mound mastery of
Lew Burdette, who posted his
sixth straight victory after
having lost lour in a row at
the start of the season.
The defeat was a heart
breaker for Sandy Koufax
who gave up only one earn
ed run in the eight innings
he worked and struck out 13
men, the 38th time in his
major league career that he
had fanned 10 or more in
game and the seventh time
this season.
But it went into the books
as Koufax's second straight
defeat of the current home
stand during which the Dod
gers have dropped seven
games while winning only
four.
"I'd settle most times to
holding an opposing team to
just two runs," manager Walt
Alston said. "Two runs won't
win many games but they did
last night."
WON YACHT RACE
Poole, England - (UPD -American
boatman Dr. Brit
ton Chance sailed Complex
III to the 5.5 meter yacht
world championship in Poole
Bay Tuesday. John B., steer
ed by R. H. Symonette of the
Bahamas, finished second in
the overall standings.
Divisions
Recognized
In Boxing
New York - (UPD - For the
first time in 32 years The
Ring magazine today recog
nized the synthetic "junior
lightweight" and "junior wel
terweight" divisions in box
ing. Recognition of those re
vived 130-pound and 140
pound classes was announced
as The Ring released its latest
ratings, which now contain
the top 10 junior lightweights
and top 10 junior welters.
Those two divisions were
generally recognized in the
1920's, but generally abolish
ed in the 1930's - although
revived in isolated Instances
now and then since.
Flash Elorde of the Philip
pines is junior lightweight
champion, and Duilio Loi of
Italy is king of the junior
welters.
Light heavyweight cham
pion Harold Johnson of Phila
delphia was named "Fighter
of the Month" because of his
successful defense last Satur
day against Germany's Gus
tav Scholz, who kept his fifth
place rating for giving John
son a hard, 15-round fight.
Allen Thomas of Chicago
moved into lOtrr place among
the light heavies as a replace
ment for Lennart Risberg of
Sweden who dropped out of
the top 10 because of hi;
knockout by Bobo Olson of
Portland, Ore., No. 7 con
tender.
Former world heavyweight
champion Ingemar Johansson
of Sweden remained at fourth
place among the heavies, de
spite his recapture of the
European title on a knockout
over unranked Dick Richard
son of Wales. Sonny Liston,
Eddie Machen and Zora Fol
ley kept their ratings above
Johansson in that order.
SPLIT DECISION
Tacoma - IUPII - Bobby Horn
Eugene, scored a split decision
over Herb LeSueur of Ta
coma in a 10-round middle
weight bout Tuesday night.
By HAL WOOD
San Francicso-flJPU - Amer
ica's world supremacy in track
and field is in jeopardy be
cause of the battle between
the National Amateur Athletic
union and the U. S. Track
and Field federation (college
coaches).
Coaches, officials and ath
letes agree that something
must be done and soon to
draw the two warring factions
together so that the country
can put its finest athletes on
die line in international com
petition. "This is a revolution," says
John Oelkers of Tulane, coach
of the United States team
against the Russians, "and
history shows that revolutions
always weaken a country, if
not totally destroy it. '
Oelkers. a college coach, is
in the middle to some extent,
He can see both sides of the
problem. But even more in
the middle are the athletes
themselves.
Oregonians Cited
There's the case of Univer
sity of Oregon's fine sub-four
minute milers, Dyrol Burle
son and Keith Foreman, not
running in the mile in the
AAU meet. Their coach, Bill
Bowerman, is a prime mover
in (he track federation and
personally at war with the
AAU.
And there are other in
stances. It's good for the ath
letes, and it's not good for
U. S. international competi
tion. The AAU, an autocratic or
ganization in the past, is feel
ing the pressure. In an at
tempt to get support from the
athletes, the AAU has named
Bill Sharpe of the Philadel
phia Pioneer club and Jim
Beatty of the Los Angeles
Track Club as "player repre-1
sentativas for the Poland and
Russia meets.
Beatty is articulate and forward-looking,
in addition to
being one of the world's great
est athletes.
Backs Cooperation
The AAU and the track
coaches have just got to get
together," says the little miler.
"We've got to pull together if
we are going to keep on top.
Neither side is all right or '
all wrong." i
One of the short-sighted ac
tions of the AAU has been the
failure of the organization to
consider NCAA coaches forj
anything except to develop!
talent. They have no say in:
regulatory matters. They have
no voting privileges.
Another has been a failure ;
to have post-college clubs
where athletes can train.
About 80 per cent of top U.S. '
college athletes quit training!
after they finish school. In i
foreign countries they are
just starting to reach their
peak in their late twenties.
O'BRIEN IN POLITICS
Seattle-OIPD-Johnny O'Brien,

during his basketball career
at Seattle university, Tuesday
night tossed his hat into the

Close Meet
Predicted
By Russian
Moscow -WPP- The coach of
the Russian track and field
team today predicted a verv
close contest when his squad
meets a United States team at
Stanford, Calif., next month.
"It would be no mistake to
say that our fourth match
with the American team will
be the most difficult," Gavril
Korobkov said.
"The Americans have good
coaches and good programs
and we can't afford to under
estimate them in any of the
events."
The Russian team probably
will include two men and
two women who set world rec
ords this spring. The one who
will be of most interest to U.S.
fans is Igor TerOvanesyan,
who just two weeks ago
soared 27 feet, 3H inches to
break the world broad Jump
mark of 27-2 set by Ralph
Boston of Tennessee State in
Moscow last year.
Vladimir Trusencv is the
other new men's rocord-hold-
er on the strength of his 202
foot, 2 inch discus throw ear
lier this month. In the U.S
meet he will be up against Al
Oerter of West Babylon, N.Y.,
the first man ever to clear 200
feet, and Jay Silvester of
Santa Clara, Calif.
In the women's division,
Tamara Press set a new shot
put record of 60.86 feet dur
ing a meet at Leipzig, East
Germany, June 10, and on the
same day teammate Tatyana
Tschclkanova bettered her
own broad jump mark by
leaping 21 feet, 5Vs inches.
