MAY 22. 1963 Black Tornado Takes Third In State Prep Golf Tussle Portland - A sparkling sec ond day comeback, spurred by sophomore Doug Olson's lour under par 70, earned Medford high third place in the Oregon high school golf tournament which concluded at Glcndo Veer course here yesterday. Mcdford's four-man crew combined for a 209 Tuesday, best team score of the day, to pull up from a Monday eighth spot ranking. South Eugene, with Dave Hamaker capturing medalist honors, walked off with its second Oregon prep links championship in four years. The axemen team of Ham aker, John Pinkstaff, Bob Hamaker, John Pinkstaff, Bob Rennie and John Larson fired an 18-hoie card of 302 yester day for a 36-hole total ofi607. Sunset with 615 was second. Medford's crew of Olson, Tom Clark, Rich Knight and Mike Miller had a 616 score. Seaside scored 622, Lake Oswego 627, Corvallis and Pendleton each 629, Cleva land 632, Grant and Marsh field 636, North Salem 644, Reynolds 665, Grants Pass 666, Prinevllle 682 and Park rose O90. Hamaker recorded a 71 yes terday to take medal with a two -day 144. Guy Gordon, Sunset, was second low indi vidual with 145. Joining them on the all-state team were Medford's Olson and Seasides Rich Schroedcr with 146s. South Eugene- established itself the leader with a 305 on Monday when the Medford crew shot a 317. Medford's two day scores were Olson 76-70-146; Knight 74-77-1 SI : Miller Sl-74-155; Clark 86-78-164. Whales Object of UO Study :By JAMES J. DOYLE and its breeding g r o u n d s i Lyons said. Portland, Ore.-ftirD-Herman ' charted. Pregnant whales are Melville's demonic Captain Ahab searched for his allego rical "truth" In' the great white whale, Moby Dick. It was his undoing. But a group of medical re searchers here believe he had the right idea, just the wrong whale. Scientists at the University of Oregon medical school are going after the Grey whale and some truths they believe are scientifically very Im portant. The research team, headed by Dr. Richard Lyons, an as sistant professor of anatomy, : hopes to catch enough speci mens to probe some hereto fore mysterious aspects of life both whale and human. The project, called a "Mul Hdlsclplinary Approach to Whale Biology" has attracted about 13 scientists at the school and a number of stu dents. From an idea born in dis cussions more than a year ago, It has grown into a proj ect encompassing many as pects of cetology the study of whales as well as investi gation into human genetic growth. Protected I Lyons has petitioned the U.S. fish and wildlife service for permission to take Grey whales, a soccles protected by international law since needed for part of the pro gram which includes studies of foetal hemoglobin. Bioproducts, Inc., a fishing firm which opened a whaling station at Hammond, Ore., two years ago, will supply the boat and crew and dispose of the whale's remains.. One of the principal objec tives of the project is a chemi cal called DNA (dexribonucle ic acid) from the whale's or gans. Scientists say it may hold the key to genetic repro duction in plants and ani mals. Other phases of the project include studies of whale hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying compound of the red corpuscles. Researchers want to learn if the same type of genes makes both whale and human hemoglobin, and they hope they can discover how evolution created this com pound. Hereditary Unit DNA is the hereditary unit located on chromosomes that carries the information to make hemoglobin. Lyons ex plains that If cancer occurs in humans, the DNA might have been traveling along a wrong pattern. The cells, in obeying the nucleus, had the wrong mes sage. They were following a "goofed up blueprint." The Important object here is the nature of such messages . 1930 when they were almost and whether or not they can extinct. j be controlled or altered to a This species is needed be-1 normal pattern, cause its migration past the j This, in effect, could be the Oregon coast is well known answer to a cause of cancer A major obstacle' in the study of DNA has been one of availability. A small amount can be taken from a human organ. But a human kidney, for instance, weighs only about three and one half pounds. The kidney of a whale weighs nearly 1400 pounds and the yield of DNA per pound would be the same. Several Sources For at least a century and a half, the whale has Deen the source of scientific investiga tion as well as a source of oil and a lot of fiction. Still, relatively little Is known about It. Certainly, no other animal holds a greater key to life's mysterious pro cesses, Lyons said. This study will fill in many blank spaces. But some of the obstacles appear whale-sized. Added to the trouble of catching and cutting at sea an animal of that size is the fact that factory ships are prohib ited by international law from working in the northeast Pa cific zone. So our whalers will have to do with a smaller vessel. This means the whale must be kept afloat during the cut-ting-ln process. The normal way is by Inflating the whale with air, but this would dam age the organs. Lyons Is improvising a large "floating hammock" made of nets which will be placed by SCUBA divers. Some of the organs will have to be "fixed" immediate ly in chemicals to preserve them.

Other organs will be fixed in a small lab set up aboard ship. While the whale is bob bing alongside the vessel, a 20-foot Incision will be neces sary to get at the adrenal glands. Crewmen wearing mountaineers' clamp-ons will do We cutting. One of the more interesting projects will be making a mold of the mammal's 300 pound heart. This organ It small in comparison with other vital organ and re mains a scientific incongruity, considering its task. The whale's vertical migra tion involves tremendous and sudden changes in pressure. The coronary arteries are to be injected with a hardening plastic substance, a mold made, and the heart placed in a strong alkali to destroy the meat. When the chemical action is completed, only the vascular structure will re main and the researchers will have a perfect "blueprint" of the heart. With a human heart this requires a mold that can be held In the palm of the hand. But It's never been done with a whale heart. So, more lm provision Is In store. First, about 8,000 pounds of the chemical alkali are needed. The heart and the so lution are to repose In a vat which, in itself, poses an en gineering problem. No such container exists, But the doctors hope the re sult, will be a' giant, safety proof concrete and steel "test tube" in which the acidity ot congestion can be controlled. r a W - ' ' $m4 WQ It f ! &, f'iJl TiA t. j ..... ."if frJ J" j lr ft--.- I . rB,rtiIM-rlc-V J, , - Ti ,, inm-ll ' - ? rr r j Great summertime drinks need the crowning touch.

Al Bohannan 939: united Orocary Sulky Sport Threatened By Virus United Pross Inlarnstional Two additional Midwest harness racing tracks have been hit by the fast-spreading equine virus epidemio that now is threatening the entire sulky sport. . , Hazel Park raceway in De troit decided Tuesday to sus pend operations until Friday night because of a shortage of horses. At the Lebanon Ohio Raceway, 22 ill horses were scratched from Tuesday night's program, forcing can cellation of one race. Three other tracks. May- wood Park In Chicago, Bran dywine in Wilmington, Del., and Northfleld Park near Ak ron, Ohio-closed for periods of time last week when they were unable to gather togeth er a sufficient number of healthy horses. The Saratoga, N.Y., Race way was forced to postpone Its opening until May 30 tor the same reason. Roosevelt Raceway at West- bury, N.Y., went ahead with plans to open ita meeting to night, although more than one-third of the 800 horses on the grounds were coughing. The virus, which affects a horse's upper respiratory sys tem and produces coughing, has laid low an. estimated 1,000 animals since its out break last month. H even affected horses en tered In two Eastern horse shows last week end but, strangely, has not reached an epidemic stage at any thor oughbred tracks.

Brown's bill to pro hibit discrimination in hous ing went before a Senate com mittee for Its toughest lest today. For Brown, it was one of the key bills of the session. He Baid many times that he considered it a necessity to end what he called "the night mare" of racial discrimination. Introduced by Negro As semblyman William Bryon Rumford (D-Oakland), the bill was watered down somewhat from its original version be fore being approved by the Assembly on a 47-24 vote. Rumford was prepared, he said, to submit further amend ments if necessary to get the bill clear of the Senate Gov ernment Efficiency commit tee - and later the Upper Chamber floor. Against Publie Policy As the bill now is worded it would: ' -Declare the practice ot housing discrimination to be "against public policy" of the state and say thai because of discrimination many persons now live In segregated sec tions in substandard, un healthful, unsanitary and crowded conditions. -Outlaw discrimination In any dwelling, privately or publicly owned, smaller than four units occupied in whole or In part by the owner as hit residence. -Allow the State Employ ment commission to Investi gate housing discrimination and enforce provisions of the law. It would require that In vestigations not be made public. ESTATE SALE The gum lilted below are part of in estate and MUST BE SOLDI Some have been fired, others have not.
