River Track Oregon's Class A-l and A-2 track and Held meets will be conducted simultaneously Fri day and Saturday at Bell field on the Oregon State univer sity campus at Corvallis. Grants Pass and Cottage Grove loom as top contenders in Class A-l and Central Linn and Rogue River in Class A-2. The Cavemen of GP, while runncrsup in District 6 A-l achieved a good balance in placing men in 13 berths for state. They will be represent ed In nine different events and have some of the top per formers In the slate. Cottage Grove will limit Its bid to field event competition with Allan Richards In the shot put, discus and javelin, Mark Hennlngsgasrtl and Charles Olds In the pole vault and Lou Bonzon in the jave lin. North Eugene looms as an A-l contender, too. It did al most double the score on Cot tage Grove In the District 5 meet and got 11 spots In the state meet, Face Valu Tivis of the Portland Oregonian has this to say of the A-l outlook; Anyone willing to accept the evidence at face value, can find reason aplenty to miDnort Grants Pass' bid for the state A-l track chBmplon. hln. On the basis of perform ance, the Cavemen are best In three events and stand to pick up enough odds and ends to qualify as King, Davis believes, In contrast to some prognostlcators, that Cottage Grove lacks the neccs Bury depth to take the title. He nluppa In this cutcBory loo Mtlwaukie. Jattcrson, HlUs- hnm and Snulh Salem, teams with doubllul potential. Mrifnrd could make troriR showing but the loss o Jim H1U through injury is re gnrded as a blow to Tornado title chances. Central Linn is ruled a title bidder in A-2 with its depth. The Cobras have 12 Individ ual and one relay spot. Rogue River lacks depth with three men In seven berths but Coach Frank Mor ris said, "We'll be tough with nur three liners." The Chicis have Don Salter in the high and low hurdles and pole vault, Jack Salter in the hall and mile and Chris Jones in the sprints.

TOURNEY STARTS Memphis, Tenn. - IUPP - A crowded field, including the three golfers who bagged most of the money won on tour this year - Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player and Tony Lema-began their quest for most loot and glory today in the $50,000 Memphis Open tournament, a r -in"- : Medford Baseballers Play South Eugene Here Friday Autos Tuned For Scramble record 15 1.1 33 mncs an nour. continued to set the pace at A team ambitious for i'j third straight Oregon Class A-l baseball championship will be the adversary of the Medford high Black Tornado here Friday afternoon in the quarterfinals of the playoff for the 1963 diadem. Mcdford will be host to the South Eugene Axemen at 3 p.m. at the high school diamond. The Axemen held the state mantle alone in 1981 but shared It last year with Hills boro when ram washed out the championship game. South has a veteran club back. The lineup is two-thirds the same as that which downed the Black Tornado 10 to 1 at Eugene last year in quarterfinal competition. Fri day's mix then is a repeat per formance of the 1962 quarter final with the Black Tornado burning for requital. Medford will go into the playoff with the benefit of more action on the diamond this season. The Tornado car ries a 17-4 record. South is 9-2. Eugcn's game activity has been confined to District S games. South was 7-1 in its subdistrict and emerged 2-1 in the playoff with Roseburg for the Midwestern league crown. The Whirlwind was 13-1 in Southern Oregon conference play and had seven games out side the circuit. Young Pitcher Stuart Young, three-year veteran chucker for the Black Tornado, likely will be Med ford Coach John Kovenz mound choice. His hill foe likely will be Scott Haviland (5-0), who is said to be farther along now than was Axeman ace pitcher Don McNeal was this time last year. McNeal is now in pro ball. Rest of the Medford lineup may be Mike Barnes, catcher; Don Anderson, first base; Dick Deffley, second base; Dan Miles, shortstop, Ron Ed- monds, third base; Gary Mil ler, left field; Mike Neathanv cr, ccnterficld; and Wayne Couch, right field. Probable lineup for Coach Bob Kane's SE club is Wayne Smith, shortstop; Dave Callen tine, third base; Bob Officer, center field; Jim Lockard, left field; Randy Coin, right field; Jack Willis, first base; Tim Warlick, second base; Tom Westfall, catcher: and Havi land. Smith and Officer have been the big hitlers for the Axemen. Good Workout Lockard, Warlick and Hav iland (who went by the name McLemore) were the only faces Mcdford players did not see in the lineup last year. Haviland was the No. 3 pitch er in 1962. Others who could see duty for South, according to Kane, are Ken Hawk and Mike Al ford, outfielders; Ed Mulh, infielder, and Al Mendenhall, pitchers. Kovenz reported a good workout on the part of the Black Tornado yesterday with much throwing and running. All the pitchers threw. Just loosening up work was indi cated for this afternoon. There will be a charge for admission tomorrow after noon. Charge will be $1 for adults and 50c for students. The money is needed to help defray South Eugene travel expense.
