Mich. - (UPD -Pete Cooper, Tony Lema and Bill Collins made il a three way tie in the third round of the FSuick Open Golf champi onship Saturday with four un der par totals of 212, but lit tle Jerry Barber closed to "within two shots of the lead with a hole - in - one which also won a $5,200 automobile. The 47-year-old Cooper, who was tied with Lema at j the end of the second round, ' matched the 28-year-old Cal i ifornian even-par 72 to cling to the front end, but the balding Collins fired a 71 which moved him up even with them.

OREGON Medford IFdWffiTS Fanfare Somehow missed during the June rush was the fact that Jack Burg, mathematics in structor and assistant coach at Medford Senior High school during the past aca- domic year, had resigned to accept the job of head track mentor at Roseburg high. The ex-University of Oregon pole vaulter moved up lo the sen ior high last year after coach ing at McLoughlin Junior high. Along with Jack's resigna tion was that of his wife, Kay, who was a physical education teacher at McLoughlin. She'll take a similar post in a Rose burg junior high. COLLEY TO HEDRICK Bill Colley goes from Howard Elementary ichool lo Hedrick Junior high this fall, taking an eighth grade PE post. The ex-Central Point high athlete will be an assistant coach with his exact mentoring assignment yet to be determined. His shift fills a gap made by the elevation of Ralph Mon roe to head wrestling coach at the senior high. The Howard post will be filled by Ron Singler, ex Medford high and a grad this spring of Southern Oregon college where he was a stellar tennis per former. MILITARY SERVICE DUE Frank Albert, ex-Medford high athlete, who just this spring obtained a degree in political science from Uni versity of Oregon, reports that a couple of years of army duty are ahead of him, starting this fall. After his military service, law school is a possibility. Another former Medford high graduate, Tom Hamlin, will complete his studies at Oregon State university in August. He will have three years of Naval service after that. STOPPED STREAK Central Point Crater Cubs, who whipped Albany 11 to 3 last Sunday at Al bany, handed the Recs their first loss of the season. Al bany had won seven games and tied one. BASEBALL SUGGESTIONS Tim Cohane, in Look maga zine has proposed the follow ing to keep baseball from be coming ' The Great JNatlonai Bore." Order manufacturers to re duce the liveliness of the ball by 15 per cent; stop throw ing a baseball out of the game when it has picked up as many as seven specks of dust; because light bats whip faster and propel the ball farther, outlaw bats under 34 ounces; increase the size of the strike zone; cut down on the num ber of warm-up pitches and quit throwing the ball around the Infield after each out; cut the season from 162 to 144 games. Dick Collins of the same magazine also suggests halt ing a game if one team leads Courtesy fujll TRI8UN1 JsWtribunk By DICK JEWETT Mail Tribune Sporti Editor by seven runs or more after five full innings of play or calling it a game, when the inning is completed, if either team builds a seven-run lead after the fifth inning. GAME LOST MONEY We'd hesitate to call the Eugene Emerald Salem Dodgers protessional base ball game at White City last month a dud. For it was an interesting tussle with soma fine play. It was. however, no success financially. The sponsoring and underwrit ing Central Point Junior Chamber of Commerce lost money on the game. A quick estimate of 2,000 fans attending was way high. A more accurate count was around 1,300. This latter figure includes the Veter ans Administration domicil iary members who did not have lo pay-although we're sure a good nuir.ber of them bought tickets. The Jaycees should be able to come out in the black next time with a more concentrated ticket selling effort. There are three more Class B pro Northwest league games slated for Memorial field. White City -all in August. The Jaycees are to sponsor one of these and the Medford Lions club two. Lions have the Aug. 2 tussle when the Salem and Eugene clubs meet again. NOT PROOF The June 25 pro fracas didn't prove one way or the other whether pro hall might be a success in the Rogue Valley. Actually, the only way to find out is to have a full season. The other games this summer may show more enthusiasm. But. one, two, three or four games are no sure measure of how some 70 games might go. MAIDS POPULAR Some estimates place the attendance at the Dairy Maid Lind Florist Softball game, the night following the pro fracas, at larger than for the Em-Dodger mix. We think It was a bit under. But the turn- . . . i w.u di DUI HI Ml U O IE y I IIVJW" nix Westerner scraps last Monday did appear a bigger one. It would appear that women's Softball is the sum mer's leading sports attrac tion. SO CHAMPS IN OGA Two past Southern Oregon golf champions were women's finalists' in the Oregon Golf association tournament which concluded at Eugene last week. Successfully defend ing her state crown was Mrs. Carole Jo Kabler Skala, Southern Oregon winner in 1955 and 1956. In the OGA finale last Tuesday the Rose burg player defeated Mrs. Shirley Siegmund Mitchell, Chico and Rogue Valley, the I960 titlist in Medford s Southern Oregon classic. The lflfil women's SO winner, Miss June Robinson, Albany, reached this year's OGA semi finals where she was beaten bv Mrs. Mitchell. , GIFFORD CHAIRMAN j Preparations are underway for the 1962 Southern Oregon tournament with Randall Gil ford chairman and B. D. Mit chell co-chairman. The tour ney Is scheduled Aug. 29 through Sept. 3 at Rogue Val ley Country club.

Game Ticket Sale Under Way Medford Lions club now has tickets available for the Rogue valley's second pro fessional baseball game of the season. The Eugene Emeralds and Salem Dodgers collide again in a Northwest league game at Memorial field. White City, on Thursday, Aug. 2.

Ma rich a 1 Strikes Out 13 Dodgers By SCOTT BAILLIE UPI Sports Writer San Francisco it'PD "Well," mused Walt Alston in a philosophical mood, "it was just as well to get those five errors squeezed into one game rather than have them spread out." The boss of the Los An geles Dodgers was discussing Friday night's 12-3 pasling by the San Francisco Giants which saw the Bay Area sock ers creep back to a half game behind his club in 'he National league land rush. Manager Alvin Dark of the Giants, beamed over a five hitter by Juan Marichal in which the Caribbean swiftly struck out 13 Dodgers for a career high. "It was one of those deals where we played pretty good ball until tonight, then ev erything went heels over tea kettle," said Alston, when reminded that the Dodgers not only saw a seven-game win streak snapped hut had played errorless ball for nine consecutive contests. No Larceny Not only were the Dodger bats held to five hils, includ ing Frank Howard's 11th home run, but base thief Maury Wills never got a chance to work his specially. He got on first once, then was whizzed around to third on a single by Jim Gilliam as the Dodgers look an early lead. Second baseman Larry Bur right made two miscues for Los Angeles while third base man Jim Gilliam, center field er Willie Davis and first baseman Ron Fairly chipped in with one apiece. Five of San Francisco's runs were unearned after they drew off to a 4-2 lead against loser Slan Wiilliams (7-5) in the third inning. While Marichal cruised along, the Giants climbed aboard Ed Roebuck for eight more runs, five of them taint ed, after the veteran right hander came in to start the fourth inning. It took Run Pcrranoski to end the sixth GAAG Less Than I Ford or Chev Pickup??)
