Dave Steen
Eyes NCAA
Shot Put
By JAMES F. COUR
Eugene - CP - Boyish-looking
University of Oregon shot
putter Dave Steen doesn't
think much of his chances in
the NCAA track champion
ship meet at Albuquerque,
N.M., this week.
"I don't expect to win," the
soft spoken 6-foot-4. 220
pound senior from Canada
said. "I'm not in Gubner's
(Gary Gubner of New York
University) class yet." He em
phasized the word "yet."
But veteran Oregon Coach
Bill Bowerman disagreed.
"That sounds like some
thing Dave would say," he
. said. "He's real shy and mod
est but always is striving to
improve himself. I think he's
got a good chance of win
ning." Statistics back up Bower
man. Steen, who is from Van
couver, B.C., holds the top
NCAA distance in the shot put
this season 61 feet, 8;,i
inches. Gubner ranks second
at 61-5.-
Bubner finished second to
Dallas Long of Southern Cali
fornia and Steen was fifth in
last year's NCAA meet here.
Long went 64-7, Gubner had
63-4 and Steen was 58-5V4.
In their only meeting this
spring, Gubner took second
in the Modesto Relays while
Steen failed to make the
finals. It was the Oregon
senior's only loss of the year.
The Ducks won the NCAA
championship last year but
will be without miler Dyrol
Burleson, hurdler Jerry Tarr
and sprinter Harry Jerome
this time around.
. "I don't think that the fact
that we are defending champ
ions and that three of our top
men aren't back will put any
added pressure on me," Steen
said. "The pressure is so tre
mendous anyway."
The 21-year-old Canadian
also has a chance at getting
Oregon some points in the dis
cus. His best of 177-1 V ranks
ninth in the NCAA statistics.

Unit ad Prttt International
If you're looking for a brief
rundown on Monday's Pacific
Coast league action, forget
the league standings and game
results.
Look instead for a couple
of off field items from the
widely separated cities of
Portland, Ore., and San Diego,
Calif.
Item one: Portland Beaver
manager Les Peden was fired
and replaced by Danny Carne
vale, a scout in the Kansas
City organization.
Item two: ban Diego pitcher
Sammy Ellis was suspended
indefinitely for insubordina
tion to climax a running dis
pute with manager Don Heff
ner. Meanwhile, on the playing
field. Oklahoma City blanked
the Padres 7-0 and Spokane
topped Seattle 4-1. Denver
dropped a close 8-7 exhibition
game to the Minnesota Twins
and Dallas -Ft. Worth was
rained out at Salt Lake City.
Peden, a 40-year-old vet
eran of 17 years of minor
league baseball, joined Port
land as a playing manager
last year and the Beavers fin
ished sixth in the PCL with a
74-80 record.
Peden also played in 47
games and compiled an im
pressive .351 batting average.
This year Peden concentra
ted on his managerial duties.
He Just recently placed him
self on the active list and
belted a grand slam home run

Opponent Sought To Go
Against Haystack Calhoun
Haystack Calhoun, who at
601 pounds is said to be the
world's biggest wrestler, will
headline an all star profes
sional card at Medford ar
mory on Thursday night,
June 27.
Promoter Elton Owen is
trying to line up a suitable
opponent for the outsized
country boy but so far has
been unable to find a top
flight heavyweight who is
willing to ro against the hef
ty Iowa farmer.
"We might have to go with
a battle royal in order to get
enough weight to oppose Cal
houn," Owen said today.
Calhoun specializes in a
"belly flop" in which he
slams an opponent to the mat
and then dives on him to
produce his falls and most
wrestlers are not anxious to
have 601 pounds dropped on
them.
Haupert, Peterson Champions
In Rogue Valley s Best Ball
Bud Haupert and Ken Pe
terson have won the men's
best ball partnership golf
tournament at Rogue Valley
Country club.
They defeated Pal Soran

C. A. Holmes and John San
ford 4 and 2.
Ed Simmons and Dr. Bruce
Stanley head a group of 37
who have qualified so far for
the Rogue Valley men's club
championship t o u rnament.
They stroked even par 72s.
Alan Holmes recorded a 73
and Bud Haupert a 74. Men
have through June 23 to qual
ify and match play will run
from that date through Aug.

Pollard Wins
Two Events
Medford driver Art Pol
lard won two events in auto
racing at the Evergreen
Speedway at Monroe, Wash.,
Sunday.
In his car "Martizing Spe
cial" he won the main event
and the trophy dash. He was
second in the fast heat and
had the third fastest time,
turning the five eighths of a
mile track in 26.68 seconds
with an average speed of 102
miles per hour.
Big Fish in Sump
Caught by Youths
Central Point - Two young
fishermen who reside on Tay
lor rd. west of here did not
have to go out to Rogue river
or some distant lake to catch
their 'big one."
The two, Dave Harper and
Darrell Bohnert, combined
their efforts to catch a large
goldfish from a sump on the
property of Bohnert's par
ents, the Don Bohnerts.
They reported the fish was
12 inches long and six inches
thick. It weighed two pounds.
It was lured by a mosquito fly
and required seven minutes to
land, the boys reported.
The pond or sump in which
the goldfish had resided was
30 feet long, 16 feet wide and
12 feet deep.

The Junior Chamber of
Commerce junior tourney at
Rogue Valley will be con
ducted on Monday, June 24.
On Wednesday the Studs
oppose the Klamath Falls
Hawks at 7:30 p.m. at Me
morial field, White City. A
Thursday trip will take the
Cheney nine to Roseburg for
8 p.m. action.
The Wednesday brush will
be an Area 4 Southern di
vision counting fracas. It is
important to both the Studs
and the Hawks since the
Hawks lead the loop with a
2-0 standing and the Studs,
although tied for third, are
just a half game back with
2-1.
For this evening's game at
GP Manager Bill Askwith has
indicated Larry Mason as
pitcher with Bob Corliss in
the back up role. Choice for
Wednesday's hill work ap
pears between Wayne Clay
and Larry Pepper. Rest of
the lineup will be just about
the same as usual.
The Studs also have a skir
mish set for next Sunday
against Tri-Clty at Merrill.
Chicago Bears Buy
Linebacker Bettis
Chicago (UPD The Chicago
Bears today acquired veteran
linebacker Tom Bettis from
the Pittsburgh Steelers for a
1963 draft choice, owner
coach George Halas an
nounced. '
Bettis, a 233-pound line
backer, played seven years
with the Green Bay Packers
before he was traded to Pitts
burgh last year. He played
college football at Purdue.
are currently in tnird place
in the Northern division with
a respectable 28-28 record.
But this did not satisfy the
Kansas City Athletics, parent
team of the Beavers.
"We hoped the Beavers
would be doing better at this
stage of the campaign," Hank
Peters, Kansas City's farm
director, said in announcing
Peden's dismall Monday. "We
feel a change of managers
might perk up the club."
The feud between Ellis and
Heffner had been building up
for some days and finally ex
ploded Monday .with Heff
ner's statement: "There's not
room for both of us on the
ball club, either he goes or I
go."
The suspension was a direct
result of an incident Sunday,
although Ellis had already
been assessed two fines for
run-ins with Heffner.
When Heffner went to the
mound Sunday in the second
inning to remove Ellis, the
pitcher argued with the man
ager for several minutes be
fore 4,495 fans. Ellis said
Heffner accused him of not
doing his best.
"Heffner knew my arm has
been aching and I didn't want
to cause any further damage
to it by throwing too hard,"
Ellis said in his own defense.
Ellis, who led the PCL in
winning percentage last sea
son, had a 5-5 record and was
leading the league in strike
outs with 90.
The Padres did not fare too
well on the field Monday
night against the pitching of
George Brunei. He scattered
five hits and fanned 12 for
his third win in five decisions.
Hardy, Danny Murphy and
Solo homers by Carroll
Hardy, Danny Murphy and
Hal Smith sparked the Okla
homa City attack as the 89'ers
scored four runs in the sev
enth and three more in the
eighth to break up a mound
duel between Brunct and
Scott Breeden.
Al Ferrara's hitting and
Nick Wllhite's six-hit pitch
ing high lighted Spokane's
victory at Seattle. Ferrara
drove home three of the In
dians' four runs with a home
run and single. Wilhite lost
a shutout when Seattle's Dave
Hall hit a bases-empty home
run in the eighth.
Denver put up a good fight
against Minnesota, but a five-
run out-burst by the Twins in
the eighth inning overcame
the Bears' three-run advan
tage and settled the issue.
