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.
Other Selections
Other selections are Oregon
i Technical institute, Bngham
Young university, Seattle Pa
! cific college, Gonzaga univer-
sity, Harvard university, In-
ternational Peoples college
(Elsinor, Denmark), Valpar
aiso university and University
of the Pacific.
It is not possible to contact
all the senior athletes and
some could have been missed.
The Mail Tribune would like
to hear about them. This in
formation can be phoned to
Durkee or to the Mail Tribune
sports desk.

Jay Allen Cars swept a
doubleheader from Tru-Mix
Concrete last night at Jack
son park to win the champion
ship tournament of the Jack
son County Softball associa
tion. 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. Perdue won the Major
league title with a .382 av
erage on 20 hits in 55 times
up, Marrs topped the Minor
loop with a .434 on IS for 53.
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."

squad held a game-style scrim

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.
