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;

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

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.

pies, for Instance, must be
flown back to the medical
school laboratories by heli
copter. 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

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.

Measure To Curb
Discrimination
In Housing Aired
Sacramento -IUPD- Gov. Ed
mund O. 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.
