MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOBD. OREGON THURSDAY. StiHTtMBER t. 1962 D Fanfare By DICK JEWFTT Mail Tribune Sports Editor Miss Pamela Stacey, Med ford, who fulfilled a five-year ambition in winning the Southern Oregon women's amateur championship on La bor day, is entered in the Eu gene Ladies open which begpr: today. Her entry is a :nrl of present from her parents, the George Staceys, for her tri umph in the Rogue Valley Country club tourney. Five years of play and hard practice went into the South ern Oregon victory for Pam, who will be 21 on Sept. 23. She sometimes spent six or seven hours on the course. Her father said Pam particularly Idolized two players. She beat one of them, Mrs. Helen Davies, in the Southern Ore gon final. The other is Mrs. Carole Jo Kabler Skala, twice winner in the Southern Ore gon and reigning state ama teur champ. Pam holds a previous win fiver Mrs. Davies, in the Rogue Valley club champion ship tourney of 1961. She was a quarterfinalist in the South ern Oregon tourney in 1960 out did not play in the South ern Oregon last year because of her impending trip to Paris to attend the Institute of Euro pean Studies. USES WILLIAMS CLUBS The SO women's title came tack to the home club after an absence of four years. Miss Sue DeVoe in 1958 was the Jest Medford winner. Pam. who borrowed the clubs of Williams for her title inatch because she felt she wasn't getting sufficient dis tance with her own. reported ly took the clubs of the ex ftogue Valley pro to Eugene with her. - To Shaw, the new Southern Oregon men's golf champion, remarked to us that, after Marine corps summer camp, he was just getting his links game back as he came into the Labor day holidays tour ney at Medford's Rogue Val ley country club. And, he improved on it al fnost to perfection as he pro gressed through six tourna ment matches to the crown. Thirteen under par fos the tournament, including six un der for the final match, pretty well speaks for itself. CONTRAST T It would take some check ing, but Shaw may have set B record for his low iMdal card for a final round. Olf fcand. we don't recall a hotter one here. One galleryite point id out that Show's hot play . in the closing match was in contrast to the way final matches often go - over par Because of wear and tear ot the long tournament. : The fact that a number of pults were conceded to the Columbia-Edgewater and ex University of Oregon lmks 6,an takes nothing away from his terrific play. Bob Smith, the Fort Ord ioldier. on receiving his run nerup trophy, spoke of how his ex-Milwaukie High school jeammate's thundering drives thook the tees. AWOL? , , . We haven't heard what kind of a reception Smith re j ..,hn ho renorted back to duty at Fort Ord. We do Know that he was eigni iwui i. .a at hie nnst as of mid night Monday night. He got on a bus at that time io --" tv. IlnHnrslanri he tele- oUUlll. phoned his sergeant to let him know he was on his way. Just hope some general didn't miss a golf lesson, smun n dutv at the links at Fort Ord. GOOD NATURED n .v,; .bout Shaw ...... a .u:u aallervites ..... hi nood natured and easy demeanor. Larry Shaw. Oregon Journal golf scribe, t ftr Tom'i semifinal i.i..mnh that onlv overconfi- dence could keep him from. beinq champ. We noted no uch attitude on his part. REPORTER REPRESENTED The Southern Oregon links classic took another stride in prestige this year. For a num ber of years the Portland Ore gonian and the Orccon Jour nal have had a staff writer at the tournament here. This vear the Portland Reporter was represented in the Dcrsoii of Neil Cawood. Next vear Sacramento and San Fran cisco will he sending staffers because of the heavy Cali fornia entry in the tourney. GRATEFUL TO JOHN We are extremely nraleful to John Hilsenteger, the Ore qonian writer, for provirlinq us with a carbon eop when he typed uo the comolete re sults each day. For soace and machine time reasons we were not able to use all results everv day. But. because of the time necessary to be spent t the office, we likely would not have been aMe to publish the results as fully as we did, had it not been for the car bon. At the least, it would have meant a lot of extra time to us. MISTAKEN IDENTITIES One thing that gave us trou ble concerned the Shaws. We caught ourselves writing Lar ry, instead of Tom. Journal writer Larry was often mis taken at the tourney for Med ford's Stewart Schroeder. Tourney followers also had to take another look also to keep from confusing Med ford's Dr. Robert Buck with another men's championship flight contender, Iver W. Isaackson of Areata, Calif. RELATIVELY QUIET Things are relatively quiet around Rogue Valley Country club right now with the 34th annual Southern Oregon past. Committees headed by gen eral chairman Randall Gil ford and co-chairman Bud Mitchell deserve a pat on the back for a well-run and suc cessful event. With the largest entry on record in the tour ney, committees had a big job on their hands and they did it well. FALL HANDICAP Next event for the Rogue Valley men will be the annual fall handicap tournament from Oct. 1 to Nov. 12. This will be a 54-hole medal play event. Dick Hensley was win ner last year with a net 208 card. State Police Lt. Earle Tichenor was a close second with 209. EXCLUSIVE Outcome of the Southern Oregon golf senior men's ri valry, in which steady, per sistent Larry Butler won the championship for the second time, kept that crown as ex clusively a Rogue River val ley one. Actually, that was as sured when ex-champ Karl Bennett, Grants Pass bowler linksman gained the 1962 finals. Butler, Southern Oregon college prof, who moved his residence from Medford to Ashland last fall still plays out of Rogue Valley CC. is the second man in the six-year history of the senior division to win the crown more than once. Marvin Clark, Grants Pass, won the first two senior tussles. DIRECTOR THANKS In a let'er to John Wheeler, Medford, Bob Robertson, state Softball director, had this to say: "I certainly wish to take this opportunity to thank you for your splendid work with the state tournament. It was fine tournament and all players were complimentary about the hospitality and gen eral operation of the tournament. Medford certainly is fortu nate to have a person such as you to be interested in the sport of softball. I hope you receive as much enjoyment out of the game of Softball as you have given the players and fans of Medford." GOOD BAND And now footballl Medford High Coach Fred Spieqelberg's prediction to Medford Kiwanis club yester day was: "We are going to have a good band. Irv (Mirick, band supervisor) didn't lose as many as we did." AWAITS WORD In somewhat similar vein on his prospects for the 1962 season, John Witte, McLaren School for Boys coach is quot ed in the Oregon Statesman as saying: "Don't know what I'll have until the juvenile court comes through for us." IMMENSE That new west side grand stand at the Medford high football stadium is immense. This is not realized until one climbs up in the stand and looks about. The view Is tre mendous. View down on to the playing field is good from almost every place in the stand. What other high school in the state has a stadium of this caliber, with concrete struc tures which provide seating for 6.500 persons under cover. Not Portland, not Salem, not Eugene that we know of. Marshfleld at Coos Bay. with a recent addition, seats a re ported 4.500 in wooden stands. RANKS HIGH So far as we know the Med ford stadium now ranks right up behind Portland's Multno mah stadium and University of Oregon's Hayward field as a covered football facility. We don't know, however, how many fans the Pendleton roundup grounds will shelter. RESULT OF DONATIONS And, Medford has this fa cility as the result of dona tions, not taxes. The 2,500 seat east side stand built in 1947, also was the result of five year season ticket sales. Nat urally, the stadium is a source of community pride. Similar pride exists in School District 6. Central Point, Gold Hill, et al, where a 2.000 seal stand nears com pletion under brand new lights. The stadium is the re sult also of donations and sea son ticket sales (three-year). The financing drive in nei ther school district is yet over the lop. Comrrstteei still seek to sell more tickets. RIFLE RANGE A rifle range will occupy the north end area under the new Medford grandstand. Dr. Leonard Mayfield pointed out, too, during a conducted tour, that physical education class rooms also can be added un derneath the stand. NO FOOTBALL There likely will be no Baker's Quarterback Play Could Offset Graduation Losses of Oregon State By JAMES F. COUR Corvallis (UPD Don't sell the Oregon State football Beavers short. Terry Baker is back. daker, perhaps the nation's finest collegiate quarterback. could more than offset the Beavers' heavy graduation losses. The 21-year-old senior, a fine runner and excellent passer, stands only 143 yards away from breaking the school's career total offense record. But all Baker wants to do is win. "We're going to win," he said. "I know we lost a lot of players including several key linemen but I just know we're going to win." As an afterthought he add ed: Of course, I never go into a game expecting to lose." Iowa Big Hurdle "The big thing is to beat the state of Iowa," he said. "If we get by them, we've got it made." Oregon State meets Iowa State in its opener at Portland Sept. 22 and faces Iowa in its second game at Iowa City Sept. 29. Talented Terry, also a basketball standout at Oregon State, has gained 2,703 yards in two seasons - 1,738 by passing. As a sophomore tailback in a single wing offense, he ac counted for 1,473 yards to set a new school one-year to tal offense record. Last year Coach Tommy Prothro changed his offense METS RECALL JONES New York - IUPU - Sherman (Roadblock) Jones, who start ed the New York Mets first home game, has been recalled from Greenville, S.C., of the Sally league by the parent club. The righthanded pitcher compiled a 5-4 record for Greenville this season. to a T - formation and the 6-31-3, 195-pounder rolled up 1,230 yards. Baker, one of the main rea sons for the change from the old-style single wing, said he "likes the T better. "I don't get as many chances to run with the ball in the T," he continued, "but I just feel more at home. In high school, you know, we used both." Baker led Jefferson High School of Portland to a couple of state championships. And one of his teammates was Mel Renfro, now a football and track star at Oregon. Got Hoop Scholarship Baker went to Oregon State on a basketball scholarship. "I didn't want to play col lege football at first," Baker said. "I didn't play as a fresh man but then decided to give it a try. I'm sure glad I did." "Now I want to play pro football when I finish school." the well-muscled athlete said. "I don't have any favorite team but I would like to play in the National Football league." Baker has extreme poise for a youngster and it shows in and out of athletics. "I've been able to maintain a B average in engineering but I wish it was better," he added. "I would like to go into some phase of engineer ing when I'm through with sports." Last year Baker was named the "best student athlete in America" by a national maga zine (Sports Illustrated) and was chosen as the winner of the Hayward Award as Ore gon's best athlete. Prothro, a drawling South erner, came up with this sad bit of news for Oregon State football opponents as the Beavers opened fall drills last week. "We're a little deeper at quarterback than we . were last year. I think Terry can be turned loose a little more." .- -'jf r 1 .v. - 'St V I ' I A t j ' I X .' . .... ' .

Gen. Robert Y. Thornton has ruled. Thornton said Oregon law allows the commission to op erate game farms for protec tion, preservation, propaga tion and promotion of game birds. Grain raising for wildlife falls within these powers, he said. If it is necessary for the commission to get a leaerai agricultural production allot ment, he said, the commission would be authorized to do so. RIVERA DEFERRED Oakland, Calif. - IUPU - The Oakland Raiders Tuesday night placed defensive half back Hank Rivera of Oregon State on the deferred list. Men on the deferred list have been injured and may return to action this season.

The televised debate be tween Edward (Ted) Kennedy, 30, the President's youngest brother, and Atty. Gen. Ed ward J. McCormack Jr., 38, nephew of House speaker John McCormack, produced no clear-cut issues. The participants, battling for the Democratic, nomina tion for the U. S. Senate seat vacated by President Ken nedy, Wednesday night con cluded the hour-long debate by shaking hands like long lost friends and smiling for photographers in marked con trast to their first meeting. McCormack in the first de bate in South Boston Aug. 27 charged that Kennedy never had worked for a living and was trying to ride his broth er's coattails to victory. But Wednesday night he changed tactics and avoided the per sonality issue. Kennedy similarly stuck to a detailed discussion of state and national issues. of the house.
