Newspaper Page Text. ' I - - - MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON FRIDAY. JULY 5, 1963 MEDFORDtaWrRIBUHl Fanfare By DICK JEWETT Mjil Tribune Sport Editor "It couldn't happen to a nicer guy." So declared John Kovenz, Medford High school head baseball coach. This old but very applicable phrase was prompted by the perfect game thrown by Med ford Pitcher Stuart Young on Monday night against the Central Point Cheney Studs in an American Legion junior ball game. Kovenz, admittedly preju diced after four years of working with Stu, said he felt he had been hoping and praying more than anyone else that Young would twirl a no-hit, no-run game. The prep mentor, who is assisting Coach Cliff McLean with the junior Legion club this summer, described Young as "probably the most coach- able kid I've had as a pitcher as far as listening, applying and remembering." He said that Stu is the type of player, who, when not pitching, will look at a hitter, analyze him and ask questions concerning him. "He always wants to learn and can remember." 100 Per Center "Baseball is his sport," said Kovenz further of Stu. "He loves it and works hard at it ... . Stu wants to better himself He's in the game all the way. . . . He's one of the real 100 per centers we've had. ... I'd like to have 15 kids just like that every vear." Kovenz reported that Young realized that he was not quick and, to be effective with the abilities he has. he had to per fect a change ud. "One of his secrets," said Stu's prep mentor, "is keeping batters off balance. And, that is one of the secrets of pitching." Even when not pitching, ac cording to Kovenz, Young is one of the most interested rjlavers in the game - the type that keeps up chatter." Men tioning again Stu's hard work, he said that one of the rea sons behind Medford high success this season In winning the district championship and reaching the state semifinals was that the Black Tornado had in Young, Jack Forde and Bill Enyart "three of the hardest working pitchers I've had." 78 Pitches Kovenz reported that he did not recall a no-hitter - let alone a perfect game - before involving a team he played with or coached. He excluded five-inning contests or com bination efforts on the part of nitchers. The Dreo tutor said that Young threw 78 pitches - ap- nroximately 11 an inning nsainst Central Point on Mon- dav and 80 the last time he faced the Studs. "That shows hp's alwavs around that nlate " said Kovenz. "Helser is getting a real prize," Kovenz declared. Roy Helser is baseball coach at Linfield college which Young will enter next fall. McLean described Young as "one that comes along every once in a while." He termed Stu "one heck of a good ball player and. one heck of a swell kid." The Le gion tutor said he is a wonder ful young man to work with and has a great knowledge of the game. McLean indicated that he would use Young in the out field against Roseburg Satur day evening. "He can go get em, said the coach. Young's father, the Rev. Clifford Young, reported that Stu has been playing base ball since he was three years old." Cornell Ousts Strongest Foe Henley-on-Thames, Eng.-lUPI) Cornell's all conquering heavyweight crew, having cel ebrated Independence Day by eliminating its most formida ble opposition, faced the Lon don Rowing club today in the semifinals of the Grand dial lenge cup, premier event of the Royal Henley regatta. The University of London was paired against the Thames club crew in the other semi final. Cornell's victory over the highly regarded Nassovia Hoechst crew of Germany was one of four triumphs scored by the United Stales during the second day of the regatta The two other U. S. entrants were defeated. The lightweight crews of Cornell and Rollins College of Florida advanced to the semi-finals of the Thames Cup competition while the Phila delphia brother team of Joe and Tom Amlong also made the semifinals in the silver goblets. Singles sculler Robert C. Lea of Harvard and the Cor nell makeshift four oared crew without coxswain were eliminated.

By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist To parents, (here probably seems to be two or more con flicting questions on educa tion. And they may wonder whether this indicates con fusion among educators and researchers. Unfortunately in some cases this is true. Perhaps it is not actual confusion but surely there is a need for more con clusions based on good re search. It is difficult to ar rive at answers which apply to everyone when you are dealing with human behavior. Each individual and his en vironment is different. Judg ments which are important factors in education naturally vary. These many problems of education are important for you to understand. However, your first con cern is ana siioum rje tne effects upon your child. Example for Discussions The area of reading seems to be a good example for dis cussion. Some schools empha size a pnonics program une sounds of letters and their combinations). Other schools emphasize the look-say meth od (learning the entire word). The majority of children learn to read quite adequate ly with either approach. Those who are having diffi culty probably have some specific problem which is in terfering with their learning. What does this mean? Ac tually both methods achieve success. It is a matter of judg ment to choose one in favor of the other. Each group prob ably will defend their ap proach as the proper answer. Thus you have a difference of opinion. Research does not give the answer so that at this time we must assume that there are several ways to do the job properly. The one used probably should depend upon such factors as the training of the teachers and the local Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DeVoss results obtained with the stu dents. This type of controvery also exists in math, language school organization (team teaching, departmentalization etc.), social studies, and many other areas involved in edu cation. Your first interest as a par ent should be to make sure that your child is learning. If he is having difficulty, find out wny. there are many causes for problems. They may be psychological, physi cal, or neurological. Will Take Too Long Don't assume that the school or its program is to blame. This won't help your child. Any basic program will probably take too long to be of value to your child. On the other hand, don't think that there are contro versies in every area. There is a good deal of research which indicates what should be done in education. You should seek reasons for par ticular actions. The most important factor to remember in all of these controversies is how your child can benefit. He will probably succeed In any pro gram where the teachers and facilities are of a high quality. After helping your child you should then be concerned with the total picture of school improvement. This is everybody's job. Constructive parents are the basis for good schools which arc in turn the basis for the success of our democratic society. Eggs from Columbia river shad are being airlifted to Pennsylvania's Susquehanna river in an attempt to re establish this highly favored food and sport fish in that portion of the ancestral home land. This completes a histori cal round trip for a fish whose origin is the rivers of the At lantic coast. The shad was in troduced into the Sacramento river from the east coast in 1871. It soon became well es tablished and is now an im portant commercial and sport species on the Columbia and lsewhere along the Pacific coast. ROGUE SHAD Pertinent to ihii is the fact of a shad run in the Rogua river that occurs during tht month of June. The shad in the Rogua come up river as far as Rainey falls and spawn from this point downriver to iht mouth. Tht new trail from Grave creek bridga to Whis key creek will make the shad more available to those fisher men who would like to trv this fish. The shad in the Rogue are the largest to be found on the west coast, weighing over 10 pounds in some cases, and are a chal lenge to anyone who thinks he can catch fish. COOPERATION Technicians from the Ore gon fish commission, the Washington department of fisheries, and the U. S. fish and wildlife service are aiding Bob Biclo, assistant director of the Pennsylvania fish com mission, in taking the eggs from the Washougal reef area in the Columbia river above Portland for the conservation effort. The program, adminis tered by the Federal wildlife agency in conjunction with the states of Maryland, Penn sylvania and New York is be ing financed by eastern power companies. It is expected that some 10 million eggs can be airlifted to the upper Susque hanna from an apparent large Columbia river shad run this season. Through advanced techniques of fertilization, use of oxygen filled plastic con tainers, styrofoam insulated packaging, and fast air trans portation the eggs arrive in their new Susquehanna home within 24 hours after leaving the Columbia river. THE SHAD The shad is nlially a salt water species, spending most of its Ufa in lha ocean and ascending streams in ihe spring and early summer as four year olds lo spawn. A single female may contain ai many as 100,000 eggs which are discharged in the open water near the surface and fertilised by closely following males. They hatch in from three to seven days and the, young fish remain in the river till fall and then go to sea. This year the unseasonably cold water in eastern rivers prevented development of ma ture roe in Atlantic popula tions that might otherwise have provided eggs for the project. It is believed that shad of tht Columbia river, adjusted to long uprivtr mi grations, will move far up tht Susquehanna thus utilising spawning areas not now sup porting the species. PRESENTLY OCCUR Shad presently occur in the Susquehanna; but, four power dams, the first built in 1910, prevent their migration to up stream spawning grounds. This year's efforts arc in the nature of an experiment to determine if water quality is such that shad can nov sur vive in the upper Susquehan na. Results of the study may lead to the construction of fish passage facilities over the dams and eventual recstab lishmcnt of major shad runs. THE ANGLER'S LOG Tht gamt commission has bean conducting an investiga tion of the salmon snagging problem on the Rogue. On one trip, when thty discovered IS dead salmon bttwten Shady Cove and Dodge bridgt. fivt of tht fish wtrt deltrmintd to be dead as a result of snag ging, and tht rest were de composed to tht extent that tht caust of death could not bt dtcided. Using divers on another trip, about one-twtn-titth of tht fish observed wtrt carrying snagging marks, in dicating some of the damage done to the run. Everest Climbers To Meet Kennedy Seattle Mt. Everest conquerors Jim Whittaker of Redmond and Luther Jerstad of Gig Harbor are sched uled to leave here Saturday morning to keep an appoint ment with President Kennedy. The climbers, accompanied by their wives, are scheduled to depart at 8:15 a.m. aboard a United Airlines plane for a flight to Friendship Airport in Baltimore. They are to talk with the President Monday, after ren dezvousing with other mem bers of the Everest party. Whittaker was the first American to reach the sum mit of the world's highest mountain, making the suc cessful climb May 1. Jerstad was one of four Americans who reached the top in later assaults on the summit. Diamond Lake . fishing has remained excellent with trolling being the preferred method.
