AUGUST 21, 1963 Mebfordtribpnb Medford Athletes Tell College Plans Plans for the future, natur ally, have been of concern to Medford high athletes who wound up their Black Torna do sports careers during the 1962-1963 school year. Most of them have chosen college as their next goal in sight. Where to go and what to major in has been a prob lem but most have made de cisions. Some 36 young men were interviewed or checked on by Ken Durkee, ex-Medford high (1960) three-sport athlete. He found that the largest number of this group plan to enroll at ' Southern Oregon college and . the next largest number have picked Oregon State univer- sity. i SOC is the choice of 12 ath letes and nine plan to attend Oregon State. In all 12 schools are among the choices. Two have picked University of Or I cgon and three will go to Lin ; field college.

The Car Dealers bounced the Mixers 6 to 1 in the seven inning first game and blanked them 8 to 0 in five innings in the second contest that dropped the curtain on the association season. Two games were necessitat ed last night because the tournament was double elim ination. Jay Allen went into the final night with one loss while Tru-Mix had gone un beaten. Willie Barnum pitched both victories for Jay Allen last night after also having gone the route in a Monday semi final verdict over United Grocers. Laval Meunier sing led and doubled to drive in two runs and John Payne homered for Jay Allen in last night's first game. In the sec ond hassle Chuck Hoyt blast ed across four runs with a single and triple and Les Walker doubled home two teammates. Three In First Jay Allen got off to a fast start in the Tuesday opener with three runs in the first inning on hits by Tom Per due, Meunier and Jerry Shults, a groundout and an error. Payne's single, an er ror, a groundout and Shults' hit got a third inning tally. Tom Perdue of Jay Allen Cars and Chuck Marrs of Tru- Mix Concrete were batting champions this season in the Jackson County Softball as sociation. League President Harry Chipman has announc ed.

Minnesota Vikings Emphasizing Youth (Editor's not: This is an other of a series of dispatches sizing up the prospects of pro fessional football teams for the 1963 season.) Jeep Club Meeting On Thursday Night The Rogue Ridge Riders jeep club will hold a special meeting on Thursday, Aug. 22. at 8 p.m. at Carter's Tune Up. 2"52 North Pacific Hwy. Members and interested newcomers are urged to at tend as a discussion on the Labor day activities and trip will be held and movies on the previous trip will be shown. By BOB MARTEL -Bemidji, Minn.-IUPD - You might call the Minnesota Vi kings "Van Brocklin's Kiddie Korps." Gone are all except three of the original group of cast offs and oldtimers the Vikings acquired in the National Foot ball league's "grab-bag" prior to their maiden 1961 season. Those three are lineman Grady Alderman, Gerry Huth and Frank Yuso. Pass-catcher Jerry Rcichow, starting his eighth NFL sea son at 29, is the granddady of the squad. He is one of only five Vikings with more than four seasons of pro ex perience. Last year coach Norm Van Brocklin played 11 rookies and eight second-year men on his two platoons. I his year tnere will be a continued emphasis on rookies and youth. "Many of the boys we have in camp must learn a great deal," Van Brocklin said. But there is more enthusiasm this year then ever before and I think we'll be vastly improved." Sixth Last Year The Vikings finished sixth in the Western conference last year with a 2-H-l mark, beat ing out the last-place Los An geles Rams. "I see that we're picked to finish last this season," Van Brocklin said. "That's all right with me. You're in trou ble when they pick you to finish first." The Vikings have an im pressive group of rookies in can.p led by free agent Ron VanderKclen of Wisconsin. VanderKelen. who rose to national prominence in this year's Rose Bowl game, is counted on to back first-string quarterback Fran Tarkenton. The young Green Bay. Wis., native was voted the outstand ing player in the College AU Star Game Aug. 2. "VanderKellen is the same type of boy as Tarkenton," said Van Brocklin. "He is in telligent, eager and a fine student of the game." Other Newcomers The Vikings also signed end Paul Flatley of North western, guard Gary Kalten bach of Pittsburgh, flanker Ray Poage of Texas, defensive end Don Hultz of Southern Mississippi, linebacker John Campbell of Minnesota and defensive halfback Terry Kosens of Hofstra. All figure to play a prominent part in the Vikings' bid this season. Tarkenton should shov to better advantage this season with the prospect of a su perior corps of receivers. Run ning halfback Tommy Mason is ready for NFL stardom, according to Van Brocklin. Tom Wilson obtained from Cleveland, will run behind Mason and is also slated to play some fullback. Van Brocklin, like just about everyone else, rates the Green Bay Packers the team to beat in the Western con ference. "But we're not giving any thing up," Van Brocklin says. "We may not win the cham pionship, but we'll make life miserable for some people." Game-Style Drill by East Squad Pendleton - tliPIi - The East squad held a game-style scrim mage Tuesday night in prepa ration for the 12th annual East-West Shrine high school football game here Saturday night.

Drawing Held For Unit Deer Hunt Permits Portland - About 30 hunt ers were on hand last week at the game commission's Portland headquarters to wit ness and participate in the public drawing for unit deer permits. Seventeen units were over subscribed at the filing dead line which required drawing to determine successful appli cants. The drawing sequence as selected by participating hunters was 2, 7, 3, 1, 5, 9, 0, 8, 6, 4. Only one unit required drawing through the entire se quence of numbers, the Clat sop unit where 1,661 hunters filed applications for the 1,500 permits. Three units required nine numbers to be drawn, two into the eighth number, three units into the seventh number, one unit into the sixth number, four units into the fifth number, and three units into the fourth number. Automatic All other units were under subscribed and hunters who filed applications by the dead line will automatically re ceive permits of their choice. Unsuccessful hunters in the drawings will be assigned sec ond and third choices wher ever possible. If all three choices are filled, applications will be returned for refiling in an unfilled unit. Late filing applicants will not be issued unit permits un til all hunters who filed by the filing deadline have been accommodated. When all ap plications received by the fil ing deadline are processed. In the fifth ining Perdue singled and went to second base on an error. He scored on Meunier's two-baser. On Payne's roundtripper in the seventh, it appeared that cen terfielder Ken Breazeale might make the catch. But, he step ped over a hump and into a hole and crumpled to the ground, hurting his ankle. Bill Weddle of the John Wheeler Loggers was pressed into service from the side lines to finish the fracas. Breazeale was able to play the second game. Hils by Weddle and Chuck Marrs and an error produced the Tru Mix run. in the second in ning. Seven-Kitter Barnum tossed a seven-hit first game, striking out seven and walking three. Ron Weatherford gave up nine hits to JA. He walked one, hit one and fanned one. Perdue. Meunier. Payne and Shults each had two hils for Jay Al len and Gary Highland two for Tru-Mix. Jay Allen opened the de ciding contest with two runs in the first canto on two bases on balls, a single by Payne and double by Walker. In the third there were two more on singles by Walker and Hoyt, three stolen bases and a base on balls. An error, wild pitch, sacri fice flyout by Payne, hit by Shults, walk and Hoyt's triple got the three markers in the fourth. Singles by Barnum and Meunier, a fielder's choice and a wild pitch figured in a fifth inning score. The game was automatical ly halted, in accordance with the rule book, after five in nings because JA had more the the required seven-run lead. Two-Hit Game Barnum held Tru-Mix to two hits, by Gary Highland and George Zickefoose. He struck out two and walked one. Jay Allen socked 10 hits off Jim Reinholtz, two each by Walker, Hoyt and Barnum. Reinholtz whiffed two and walked four. Jay Allen lost its first game of the tourney to United Groc ers then beat the Grocers after a win over Communica tion Workers. Tru-Mix ad vanced with decisions over Colvin and Associate, Keith Schultz Garage and United. Jay Allen finished second in the Major league after a third place in the full as sociation standings for the first half. Tru-Mix tied for seventh in the first half and won the Minor league in the second half. John Wheeler Loggers won the first half and the Major league titles but did not wish to play in the association tourney after state tourna ment action.
