Always Room at Top
Speaker Tells Eagles
Eagle Point - "There's al
ways room at the top," Nor
man Martinson declared here
last night at the annual ban
quet honoring the Eagle Point
High school athletes.
Martinson, assistant profes
sor in the Oregon State uni
versity physical education de
partment advised, "Prepare
yourself to be at the top" but
warned that "it takes lots of
work."
He told the athletes who
are planning to go on to
school to "try to pick the
- school that will make you
the best you can be."
In analyzing what one gets
out of- high school sports,
Martinson took the letters
which spell "athlete." He said
that A is for attitude, T for
training, H for habits, L for
leadership, E for enthusiasm,
T for teamwork and E for
excellence.
The evening's princi pal
speaker maintained that hab
its (skills) should be developed
that one is able to use after
schooling is complete. He re
ported that there is a direct
correlation between participa
tion in athletics and leader
ship. On teamwork, the OSU
instructor pointed out that in
later life many of the honored
athletes would be working
with teams on their jobs and
that esprit de corps is neces
sary for a business to produce
its best.
Make Own Breaks
Martinson described excel
lence as the most important
quality and said that athletes
should want to do their best
at all times.
"Officials don't win or lose
ball games," Martinson as
serted, "it's the individuals
themselves." He added, "You
make your own breaks."

San Francisco fUPD Track
and field promoters around
the world have been trying
for two years to get Peter
Sr.cll of New Zealand and Jim
Beatty of the United States
together to run the 'miracle
mile" race of the century.
But it took Tom Moore, di
rector of the California Relays
at the little city of Modesto,
Calif., to swing the deal.
The race will be staged Sat
urday night and in addition
to Snell and Beatty, three oth
er sub-four minute milers,
Bobby Scamon, Jim Grelle
and Cary Weisigcr, will be in
the race.
Snell holds the world's rec
ord at 3:54.4, and Beatty is the
fastest of the other campaign
ers at 3:56.1.
Austrians go to considerable
pains to make the foreigner
feel at home. They even out

George Flanagan Jr.
Opposes Dalton in
Fast Draw Contest
George Flanagan Jr., a
member of Gun Fighters Inc.,
a local gun club, will engage
Jack Dalton in a fast draw
contest before the main event
of tomorrow night's profes
sional wrestling program at
Medford armory.
Dalton beat Flanagan by
the narrowest of margins, in
the opinion of three judges,
when they met here in March
but this time a timing device
will be used which will give
a more accurate check on the
fast draw of each participant.
Dalton, who claims to have
the fastest draw in the coun
try, is an expert horsesman
and says he is a direct de
scendant of the infamous Dal
ton Gang of wild west days.
He will team with his
brother Jim, himself no slouch
at the rough and tumble side
of wrestling, in a tag team
match against Rocky Columbo
and Andre Drapp. Drapp, a
handsome and colorful mat
man, has beer headlining
cards in the northwest for
several weeks and recently
drew 4,000 fans when he de
feated Maurice "Mad. Dog"
Vachon in Seattle.
One More
Chance for
Len Sutton
Indianapolis, Ind.-flJPD-Len
Sutton's car, which he lost in
the southwest turn of the
Speedway while practicing
for 500-mile race qualifica
tions, was expected back on
the track today, despite
hitting the wall twice Tues
day. Sutton was anxious to get
back at practice because he
has only one more opportu
nity to qualify for the Memo
rial Day classic. Twice he has
taken the green flag in the
time trials and twice pulled
in. You get only three
chances.
Sutton, runner-up to team
mate Rodger Ward in last
year's "500" escaped injury
when he cracked up Tuesday
while running at about 146
miles per hour.
Other than Sutton's meet
ing with the wall, action at
the Indianapolis Motor Speed
way was slow Tuesday. Be
cause of poor weather condi
tions, only nine cars were on
the track all day and high
winds held down speeds.
BOTTOMS UP
