Big Chance for
Little People
In Golf's '500'
Indianapolis - IUPD - One of
golf's richest tournaments, the
$55,000 "500" Festival open,
begins today and strangely,
one of the "little people"
probably will pick up the
check.
Only four of the top 10
money winners are in the
game this year, and none of
the "big three - Arnold Pal
mer, Jack Nicklaus, and Gary
Player - were to compete.
This clears the way for
some one who can use the
money to earn the $10,000
first prize.
It might be Doug Ford, for
instance, who won the first
two tournaments run on the
par 71 Speedway layout on
which the course record is a
nine-under-par 62.
Casper Out
Ford this year is 41st in
earnings with $7,365.
The course record holder
and defending champion
won't be in the running,
either. Billy Casper, who set
the mark three years ago be
fore he triumphed last year,
is out with a bad hand.
Tony Lema, winner at
Memphis last week and
second only to Nicklaus in
money winnings at $44,206,
fifth place money winner
Julius Boros, eighth place Dan
Sikes, and ninth place Liow
Finstcrwald are the only play
ers in the top 10 who will
compete.
But somebody further down
the list could come through
too, such as Bob Charle, Phil
Rodgcrs, who had a 64 to win
the pro-am event, Don Janu
ary, Johnny Pott. Jack Burke,
Tommy Bolt, Billy Maxwell,
Dave Ragan, or Jerry Barber.

Oregon State's Track Team
Stuns Oregon Ducks 79-66
Eugene - UTO - Oregon
State's track fjrees ended 15
years of frustration Thursday
with a stunning 79-66 victory
over archrival Oregon, the de
fending national collegiate
champion.
The Webfoots had won 17
dual meets in a row from the
Beavers since Bill Bowerman
became Oregon coach in 1948.
Oregon, in fact, had tripped
coach Sam Bell's Beavers 80
65 in a r.ieet earlier this year.
The pivotal events Thurs
day were two Oregon special
ists, the mile and the two
mile. Oregon State's Morgan
Groth won them both, the
mile in 4:04.3 and the two
mile in 9:13.7, Teammate Jer
ry Brady was at Groth's shoul
der in the latter.
Keith Forman, Oregon's
sub-four minute miler, ran
third in his return after be
ing sidelined for two weeks
by a foot injury.
The Beavers swept the in
termediate hurdles and picked
up five points when Oregon
was disqualified in the 440
relay for passing far out of its
lane.
Oregon had a pair of dou
ble winners in Mel Renfro and
Dave Blunt. Renfro won the
broad jump at 24-2 and the
high hurdles in 14.1 seconds.
Blunt captured the 10U in 9.6
and 220 in 21.4.
Three meet records fell,
two to Oregon. Gerry Moro
won the pole vault at 15' -j
and Paul Stuber high jumped

Double Out
Weird One
Cincinnati-IIIPII- There were
these two runners coming into
home plate, see, so catcher
Don Pavletich simply tagged
out both of them in one of the
strangest double plays of the
current baseball season.
It happened in the sixth in
ning of Thursday night's Gi
ants-Reds game. With one out.
the Giants had Jose Pagan on
at second base and Billy
O'Dell at first. Cap Peterson
hit a line drive to right-center
field. Fearing the ball would
be caught. Pagan wailed be
fore starting to run. The bell
rolled to the wall and Pagan
ran.
Due to Pagan's late start,
the Reds got the ball to the
plate before he arrived. He
slid, but Pavletich tagged him
out.
And lo and behold, right
behind him came ODell. Pav
letich tagged him, too. and the
inning was over.
Chic Calderwood

the final bell saved Von
Clay of Philadelphia from

hands of British and Empire
light heavyweight champion
Chic Calderwood Thursday
night.
Calderwood, who lost to
Clay two years ago, won the
10-round decision.
But he nearly had a knock
out victory when he floored
Clay under a flurry of
punches in the closing seconds
01 the 10th round. Referee
Frank Wilson had Just reached
the count of eight when the
bell rang to end the bout.
It was Calderwood's 35th

Woods, Water, Wildlife
By Hank DeVoss
Quite a hitch has developed
In the most recent attempt to
pass federal legislation that
would create permanent
refuges out of the present
Tule Lcke, Lower Klamath,
and Upper Klamath National
Wildlife K.'f'iges. At the pres
ent time these refuges are lo
cated on federal land admin
istered by the bureau of rec
lamation and are constantly
threatened by reclamation
policies to drain it for agri
cultural use. There are two
bills before congress, S, 784
and S. 793, that will make
these refuges more perma
nent. These were reported on
in an earlier column, and it
was indicated that S. 793 was
preferred because it made
wildlife management the pri
mary use of the land.
NO FIRING LINE
Both senate bills are before
the Senate committee on in
terior and insular affairs and
passage of the bills seems de
pendent on whether or not an
amendment proposed by the
Klamath Basin Water Users
Protective association is
adopted. The amendment
would have the Interior de
partment sell the 6,366 acre
section -f the Lower Klamath
refuge that is located in Ore
gon just above the California
border. This is the "firing
line" utilised by so many of
the Oregon hunters that are
partial to duck and goose
hunting.
CHOOSING SIDES
It would seem that with the
ever - shrinking quantity of
nesting and feeding grounds
available to ducks and geese
that there would be no hunter
or conservationist willing to
see more of it sold into private
ownership. It also would be
expected that those who
profit from the use of these
lands, namely the large land
owning corporations that
farm cheap government lands,
will do everything in their
power lo retain and hold ex
clusive use of as much of the
land as possible.
COMPROMISE?
Similar legislation to !ltal
under consideration was be
fore congress last year and
failed lo pass because no com
promise could be worked out.
It is feared that the present
attempt also will fail unless
someone gives in and it ap
pears that the most pressure
has been generated by the
large land owners in the
Klamath basin. This is based
on the fact that at the most
recent committee hearing a
letter from the governor of
Oregon was read that slated
he recommends the sale of
the "firing line". It also was
stated before the committee
that the Oregon game com
mission is in favor of the sale.
WHAT HAPPENED?
The governor has written a
letter lo those concerned in
which he states that he under
stands the game commission
has reached an agreement
with the Klamath Basin
Water Users Protective asso
ciation and will support an
amendment that will sell the
land but retain hunting rights
for the public. The game com
mission has been asked for a
written declaration of its po
sition and at the present time
has not given an answer as
to lis official position. How
ever, the commission has
given indication that it fears
passage of the bill that would
stabilize the refuges and be
cause of pressure from those
in favor of the amendment
will not oppose it.

leaves the Oregon hunter out
in Iho cold. The loss of the
"firing line" is no small thing
to those who hunt clucks and
geese. The guarantee of hunt
ing rights is not legally de
fensible, and aside from that
is the fact that if the farmer
owners decide lo plant row
crops the ducks and geese will
not use the area. It is a situa
tion that requires all sports
men and conservationists lo
unite in an effort to pass S.
793 without such an amend
ment.
THE ANGLERS LOG
The old timers are claiming
that this is one of the biggest
salmon runs the Rogue has
had in many years. It may be,
but il also may be that the
salmon are biting more read-'
tly than in past years. Only
time and the fish count will
tell us.
Applr-iate Rive r Fishing has
been poor except in the upper
area above Ruch. Mostly planted
trout with a few cutthroat thrown
in.
Illinois It I v e r The onlv part
producing fish is that where the
trout were planted. Some cut
throat were taken on opening
day up one o( the (orks. These
probably were a remnant of what
uai once a goodsized migratory
run.
Klamath River Trout fishing
has been good in the upper river.
Some fabulous tales arc coming
out of the reservoir behind Iron
gate dam. Trout of 1 1 pounds
have been caught and speculation
has . that they are steelhead
that were trapped by construction
of the dam.
Rogue River Trout fishing has
been spotty but the salmon fishing
above Trail has been excellent for
almost anyone trying. Compared to
last year it could be said to be
fabulous.
Fish Lake Several limits are
being taken every day. The larg
es fish thii week whs 17 inches
long. Sires run from 7 lo 22 inches,
and best results are with rgu or
worms while stilliishiiiK. Fly fish
ing early and lute is finding some.
Four Mile I. a k e Fishing has
been low mostly because there
have been few fishermen. Most of
the fish have been 7 to 10 inches.
Howard I' r s I r I e Fishing has
been excellent for almost every
one. Lots of Huh arc In the shal
lows at the unncr end of Hip 1k
and are providing great sport for
the fly fishermen.
Hyatt Lake Fishing has been
spotty. Slillfishmg tuts been best
with velvecta cheese the preferred
bait. Many of the fish arc over 20
inches. A few bass are being tak
en up to 13 inches, and the cat-
iian re running o iq 13 inches.
On worms
Willow Lake Some i.r rnti-liln.
and some aren't. Mostly kokanee
are being taken with worms near !
the bottom doing the job. They !
are up to 16 inches long and hog
fat. The weather and the swim
ming are fine.
THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER j
Diamond Lake is coming'
back as one of the best fishing
lakes in the stale. Everyone
is limiting on rainbow 12 to
14 inches long. No small fish1
are showing and the larger!
kamloops are very scarce.
Oponing day was comfortable,
but now the word is out the
mobs will be back. j
