Newspaper Page TextWEDNESDAY. AUGUST 25. 1954 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THIRTEEN ussia BERN, Switzerland Wl Russia unveils today the results of two years of dedicated, almost mili tary-like drive to rival the United R I lit r Slates as the dominating world power in the 1956 Olympic track t and field games. , ' The scene is Neufeld Stadium site of the five-day European Athletic Championships, to wru MS track and field st3rs from 28 countries have been drawn. The Soviet Union will field ; ftam ot 74 men and women. The r men appear almost certain of , three championship?. The women actually may run off with every title and should place one, two, ', three in many. But the greatest Interest of Western onlookers centers not so much on .well-known . . individual Soviet stars as on the Russian depth in every event. A country may enter only two in each event and Russia looks .pow erful enough to place high in every , one of the 24 contests, which in clude two walks and two relays. To Russians, athletics have a political tinge and "outstripping the capitalist world has its place on the cinder track as well as in the tractor factory." . These European championships could turn into an Iron Curtain triumph in sports. Czechoslovakia is bringing a squad headed by the great Emil Zatopek, world record holder in the 5,000 and 10.000 meters as well as a host of other distances. His compatriot Jiri Skoblif is a strong favorite to win the shot put. The Hungarians stand an excel lent chance of winning the ham mer with Olympic champion Jo seph Csermark, the discus with Ferenc Klic and the broad Jump with Odan Foldessy. Their 1.500 nian Sandor Rharos could upset Britain's four-minute miler Roger Bannister. Poland's Janusz Sitlo Is the choice in the javelin. The Rus sian trio of Leonid Shcheroakov in the hop, step and jump, Yurll Litucv in the 400 meters and Vasi li Kuznetsov In the decathlon are almost sure favorites. Other Rus sian victories are possible in the 100 and 200-meter dashes, 400-meter run, 110-meter hurdles, pole vault and 3, 000-metcr steeple chase. PICKLED MINNIE Minnie Minoso of the White Sox takes oft like a sprinter, with Yankee Gerry Coleman, plus ball, Tight behind him. Minnie got caught in this pickle when he tried to steal second, found ball there before him and tried to retrace his steps to first. (NEA) t Looking for the best way to finance a car?

While trying to In terview the big Negro fighter one always has had the feeling that he was holding himself tightly in check, saying as little as he could without actually offending those who were probing his thoughts. This has been understandable to some extent, for Ezzard has been given some rough goings-over on the sports pages from time to time for his failure to fight up to expectations. These have hurl him, for he is a more intelligent and sensitive fighter than some, and his reaction has been to clam up except in the presence of cer tain intimates. It is from one of. these that we Lave received a report on what the challenger is thinking . as he trains for his . second shot at Rocky Marciano Sept. 15 in Yan kee Stadium. This is what Ez said to his friend: "I feel great, better than the last lime. You've either got it or you haven't. I had it the last time but I didn't use enough of it. I oidn't take advantage of the breaks. When I hurt him I iet him get away. It will be different this time. "I've made up my mind it won't go 15 rounds. I've never made pre dictions or boasted about what I could do in the ring, as you know. I was confident I could beat him the last time, and now I'm more confident I can knock him out. . "Always before there was loo much time. Time heals, but it can kill too. When Joe Walcott took my title away in Pittsburgh in 1951 I wanted to get right back at him. but Joe Wide me wait almost a year. - Have you ever waited for something, not knowing wnether li s ever coming oil? wnn joe, there was no telling. Anyway. I waited and worried too much, and bv the time I fought him again I v:as like an amateur. I had no zing, no pep. . . . "Finally I got my fight with Marciano. It was one of my best, and even if they gave him the de SNIPE BOATS NEW RECORD NEW YORK Ml There are now 391 chartered snipe fleets in the world with 10,083 numbered snipes now entered on the Snipe Class International Racing Assn. records. A total ot 317 new individual craft have been entered this year in this one-design sail-boat class. The 15 foot craft was first - designed in 1931. CLAYTON HANNON, Sports cision I have no excuses. I still think I won it. But if I had fought him in Feburary or March instead of June I would have knocked him cut. "When we signed right back for September I was the happiest I've been for a long time. A short rest and back to work. There is no Senators Whip Chiefs In I I Innings B.V THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Damp weather cooled off the red hot pennant race in the Western International League Tuesday night. Games between front-running Lewlston and Yakima, and Vancouver and Edmonton were postponed because of rain.

Salem scored five runs In the yth inning Tuesday night to beat Tri-Clty after throwing the game into overtime with a freak triple play in (he ninth. The triple killing came with the Braves Vic Buccola on second and Len Tran on first. Artie Wilson hit a lowliner fly caught bi Don Kellogg at third. Both runners thought the ball was trapped, however, and were off and running. Kellogg pegged to second but the throw was wide and went into right field. Right fielder Mel Krause, who also thought the ball was trapped, peg ged home trying to get Buccola. Second baseman Olenn Tuckett called for the ball, touched sec end and Buccola was called out, then Tuckett threw to first where Tran was thumbed out.
