Southern Cal Solid Choice
In NCAA Track Encounter
' Albuquerque, N. M. - flIPli -Southern
California, which
has won 21 of the 41 previous
NCAA track and field champ
ionships, rolled along a solid
favorite today to make the
controversy . wracked 42nd
collegiate cinder carnival an
other Trojan conquest.
. The Trojans won the only'
final event on the first night
of the three-night show at the
University of New Mexico,
and qualified a dozen athletes
in seven of the nine events in
which qualifying trials were
held Thursday night.
Julio Marin got Southern
Cal away on a winning pace
when he whipped a bulky
field In the NCAA's first-ever
six-mile run in 30:32.9 to give
USC 10 big points in its bid
to unseat Oregon as the
NCAA champ.
Three other finals are
scheduled today and tonight,
including the broad jump in
which Clifton Mayfield of
Central (Ohio) State college
equalled the NCAA meet rec
ord in the preliminaries with
a wind-aided leap of 26 feet
7 inches. The other finals are
the hammer throw and the
three-mile run.
Mayfield is one of the prin
cipals in the eligibility drama
which has engulfed this meet
as the result of alleged viola
tions by 11 small colleges in
bypassing last week's NCAA
College Division meet at Chi
cago.. .
- His mark, and those of 19
other athletes may go for
naught .if the NCAA execu
tive committee upholds com
plaints 'against the offending
schools. Their marks, and
points, will be taken away.
: The 11 colleges whose ath
letes are competing under
protest are Central Ohio, Mc
Murry i (Tex.), Idaho State,
Emporia (Kan.) State, Los
Angeles ; State, San Diego
State, .Lamar Tech, Pepper
dine, Whitworth, Texas South

four week lay-off he took to
cure his nerves and weary

the Palmer of old.
Jack Rule of Cedar Rapids,

, by Paul Lei 5
Do you know who was the J
J youngest man ever to play
" in . big league baseball
gamer
Answer is pitch
er Joe Nuxhall ... He set
the all-time record when he
broke in with the Cincinnati
Reds in 1944 at the age of
1 3.
What was the longest
home run ever hit? .
Many homers were never of
ftcially measured, so the
record is In dispute, but the
longest measured drive in a
big league game was 1iit by
Mickey Mantle . . . Mantle's
record blast was hit at Grif
fith Stadium, Washington,
in 1953 . . . Mickey hit the
ball 565 feet.
5 It's easy to guess which
American league team has
won the most pennants . . .
It's, of course, the Yankees
. But, can you guess
which National leaaue team
has won the most flags . . .
This one's a little tougher
... If you said the Giants,
you're right . . . They've
won 16 pennants . . . Next
come the Dodgers who have
won II... The Yankees,
by the way, have won 27.

Manager of Tule Lake Refuge Walton Speaker
Robert F. Russell will pro
vide the program on Monday
evening, June 17, at the regu
lar meeting of the Jackson
County chapter of the Izaak
Walton league.
Russell is manager of the
Klamath Basin National Wild
life refuges with headquarters
at the Tule Lake refuge. He
will show 'slides, concerning
refuge activities and opera
tions. He will talk on the legis
lation before Congress affect
ing these refuges and will
answer questions.
The meeting will be at 8
p.m. at the American Red
Cross building here.
The public is invited to the
meeting. Col. Paul Weiland
arranged the program. He
said that it should be en
joyable to all who are intei-
ested in duck and goose hunt
ing or in conservation of mi
gratory waterfowl. Weiland
said also that the program
should prove informative on
the controversial question of
whether the Klamath Straits
unit, with its "firing line" for
Oregon hunters should go into
private ownership.
For a quarter of a century
the controversy has raged in
the Klamath basin over use of
some of the lands in the fed
e r a 1 Klamath reclamation
project for waterfowl or for
agricultural purposes. Several
bills have been introduced in
Congress this year in an effort
to resolve the issue.
Among other things these
bills would set the priority of
use which will be made of cer.
tain lands, guarantee that the
acreage of the Tule lake
sumps which are vital to wa
terfowl of the Pacific flyway
will not be reduced, provide
revenues to the counties in
which the refuges are located
and reimburse Klamath
Drainage district for develop
ments on the federal lands.
Russell has managed the
Klamath refuges since 1959.
He is a graduate of Oregon
State university in fish and
game management. He has
served as assistant manager of
the Tule Lake refuge and as
manager of the Minidoka,
Swan Lake, Horicon and Low
er Souris refuges in Idaho,
Missouri, Wisconsin and North
Dakota, respectively.
Walton chapter business at
the meeting will concern the
Congressional bills on the
Tule Lake, Lower Klamath,
Upper Klamath and Clear
Lake refuges. One bill, S.793,
is the one favored at present
by most all conservation and
sportsmen's organizations in
the country but they consider
it "in trouble" because of ef
forts of the Klamath Drainage
district and others to amend
it. The amendment would re
quire the secretary of the in
terior to dispose of the Klam
ath Straits unit which has
6,338 acres of grain and po
tato fields on the north bound
ary of the Lower Klamath
refuge. The famous "firing
line" forms the southern
boundary of the straits unit.

Ducks Gain Seven Spots
In NCAA Track Prelims;
Renfro Reinjures Knee
Albuquerque - (UPU - De
fending champion Oregon
managed to fill seven qual
ifying spaces in the National
Collegiate Track and Field
championships Thursday nigh
despite an injury to Mel Ren
fro. Oregon State picked up
four spots.
Renfro, who scored 14
points in Oregon's .victory a
year ago, reinjured a sore
knee and failed to qualify in
either the broad jump or the
high hurdles.
Dave Blunt ran a 9.4 100,
the fastest of his career and
qualified ' in both that event
and the 220. Paul Stuber and
Terry Llewellyn cleared 6-7
to qualify in the high jump.
Ray Van Asten and Lewis
Powell both made it through
the 880 preliminaries and Bob
Watson qualified at 15-4 in
the pole vault.
Wyaii Paces OSU
Oregon State hurler Tom
Wyatt led the Beavers with
qualifying performances in
both the high and intermedi
ate hurdles. Norm Hoffman
and Jan Underwood joined
Van Asten and Powell in the
880 field.
The six-mile event also was
a disappointment for the Ore
gon schools. Clayton Steinke
Coaches Seek
International
Rules Adoption
Albuquerque -flJPIu A strong
movement to adopt interna
tional rules in American track
- including substitution of
meters for yards-is under way
in the National Track Coaches
association. '
NTCA Chairman Bill Bower
man of Oregon said "it's the
finest thing that could happen
to track and field."
Bowerman pointed out that
this year coaches substituted
the 330 - yard intermediate
hurdles for the 220 yard
hurdles.
Conditioning Jump
He said adoption of the 330
lntermediates was a condi
tioning jump to the 440-yard
intermediate hurdles. Coaches
vote today on a recommenda
tion that dual meet collegiate
competition include the 440
intermediates next year.
I This would be a big step
I toward the 400-meter hurdles
j - part of Olympic competi
tion. I Other progress is the six
i mile run which appeared in
j the United States for the first

lagged in international dis
tance races in the past, but

Jones, Daniels
Clash Tonight
Teaneck, N. J. -rtlPIl- Heavy
weight contenders Doug Jones
of New York and Billy Dan
iels of Brooklyn, who share
the dissatisfaction of having
lost to Cassius Clay, meet to
night in an "I-want-Clay-again"
fight at the Teaneck
Armory.
Jones, ranked tnird among
contenders, is favored at 11-5
to whip tall Daniels, rated
sixth, in their non-televised
10-rounder.
Jones, 26, is favored be
cause of his combined boxing
skill, punch and ruggedness.
Also because he went the 10
round distance with second
ranking Clay of Louisville be
fore a sell-out crowd of 18,732
at Madison Square Garden on
March 13, although he lost the
decision.
