the final two periods of play, while
Olsen dented the twine for IS in
the first half.
Klamath held only one lead dur

Burke opened the game's scoring
with a bucket off a Klamath fast
break, but from then on out, it
was all Bend.
Roland Coleman, Bend center
tied the game up at 2-2, and Bon
Anderson pushed the Lava Bears
out in front 4-2 on two free throws
with just less than three minutes
gone in the encounter. From this
point Bend worked their way to a

Throughout most of the fourth

U'HKN VH TAGGED THE "Jack of all trades" label on Jerry
Burke. Klamath Union High School senior, during last fall's football
season, we didn't realize Just how true It was.
Burke, a 5-11, 165-pounder, is one of the very few athletes that a
person might llnd that can do anything In the line of sports and do it
very well, yet Hot have any one sport wnere he surpasses all others,
Let's look buck through the KIT sports past and Just see what we're
trying to drive home,
In the IM5 football season, Jerry came up to the Pelicans from
Uie Junior varsity club of '54 where he was a quarterback. But coach
John McOinnls already had two
very good quarterbacks In Donn
Taucher and Butch Kimpton at
the time. McOinnls expressed this
fact to Burke, and asked if Jerry
might try bis hand at end, a spot
where the Pelicans really needed
help. Without any hesitation,
Burke snapped out with a "yes.
; So McOinnls moved Jerry to
' f second string wing position, where
he worked without much notice.
Later. Taucher was hurt, so
Burke was called upon to back up
Kimpton. Later Kimpton and
Taucher were used to alternate
at halfback when Dave Pepple
was sidelined with a broken foot,
making for more Importance the
roll of "second quarterback
Meanwhile Burke was still hold
ing tight to an end spot.
Then in the Medford game,
Burke was being used at end, and
the Pels were trailing 13-7 with
less than a minute to play. At
this time Burke moved to quarter
back and Kimpton shifted over
to Jerry's end position. On the

first play, Burke faded back and calmly flipped a 26-yard pass right
into tne arms of Kimpton, who was covered by three Medford de-
icnaers and iiiamatn came out with a 13-13 tie. As Kimpton said fol
lowing the game "It wasn't hard, Jerry Just the same as handed the
ball to me. It was a beautiful pass, not catch."
Besides the end and quarterback positions. Burke also found time
to master the plays from a halfback position, where be was used at
times. But to make the Job even more outstanding, Jerry played half
back, linebacker and end on defense, and did a first-rate Job at all
three.
But football isn't the only sport where Jerry has given Up his
own" position to help his coach and team.
Take for Instance the last baseball season at KU. Jerry was a
catcher, but McOinnls had veteran receivers Bob Kelly and Modesto
Jimenez to rely on. But there was a hole In the infield left by the
graduation of Ron Conner, Don Dexter and Gene Metier the year
before. So, you guessed It, Burke turned in his catcher's mitt for a
fielder's glove and went to work at second base. Here again he turned
in a brilliant performance.
Following Uie high school diamond season. Burke turned out for
Junior Legion baseball under coach Don Peterson. "Pete" was lack
ing a catcher since Kelly and "Mo" were too old. And Burke returned
to his old spot behind the plate, a spot that the Legion club needed
held. But there came a time when Peterson had a vountrer catcher.
Kenny Bellum on hand, and short In the infield. Back again went
Burke, and without a resistance
At the present time. Burke is holding down a spot en the Pelican
basketball squad, and If he turns in many more showings such as he
did in the Ashland series last weekend, that "number five" man Peter
son has been looking for, will have been found.
Always hustling, and a true competitor must be the bywords In
describing Burke. When graduation claims Jerry this spring. KUHS
coaches are going to miss one of the finest "lack of all initu" nn

Record
BERKELEY. Calif, tn The
University of San Francisco Dons
set a new major college record for
successive basketball victories Sat
urday night 40 straight with a
33-25 victory over California before
a standing room crowd of 7,200
fans.
The Dons scored onlv once from
the field in the second half as Cal
at one stage held the ball for nine
straight minutes without attemou
wg to snoot.
The new win mark wiped out the
old mark set by Long Island Uni
versity in 1935-37 and eaualled bv
oeion nan in luju-41.
The game, one of the lowest scor
ing duels in this collegiate season,
saw the Dons rally for 10 points
In the final five minutes of the
first half to take a 20-16 lead at
tne intermission.
The nation's No. 1 team pulled
26-31 lead in the first five
minutes of the second half. Then
Cal went into its wlerd antics.
Joe Haglcr. replacing starting
center Duane Asplund who fouled
out attempting to guard the Dons'
All-America, Bill Russell, took the
ball on the sideline In the fore
court. He held it and held It.
Tlie remaining players, with the
exception of Russell, milled around
under the basket. Russell stood
motionless some 15 feet from Hag
lcr. He made no attempt to harrass
the Bear pivot man. Nine minutes
passed with the action at an al
most complete standstill as the
other players relaxed too.
Finally Cal Pete Newell called
a time out.
When ploy resumed the Bears
took a shot, missed and the Dons
went into a stall of their own.
After the game Cal Coach Newell
explained that his strategy was
to reduce the playing time in an
attempt to make a last minute
break and whittle down the five-
point deficit.
"It didn't quite work that way,"
Newell said ruefully.
Newell said he had hoped to
lure Russell, a key defensive man.
from his post under the basket
and thus open the lane for a auick
pass and layup. Russell refused to
take the bait despite loud catcalls
irom tne packed stands.
K.C. Jones was the game's high
scorer with 15 points, 13 of
them on free throws. Russell c-nt
only nine points with two field goals
nu nve out of lu free throws.

But, he didn't think his time
would be good enough to win the
1,500-meter race in the next Olym

was "reasonably satisfied."
"It was a good run, but not what
I wanted to do," said Landy, in
his third race after a year of re
tirement. "To win the Olympics I must be
able to run a mile in 3:55 or 3:56.
I was trying to anticipate today
what will be needed then. I have

Lincoln finished second to Landy,
and the crowd went wild as he
gave the champion a battle all the
way until the final yards. Lincoln
was hot on Landy's heels until
near the finish when Landy pulled
away, as h was, Lincoln was
timed In 4:00.6, good enough to get

Owls Win
Saturday1
OCC Tilt
MONMOUTH (Special) Oregon
Technical Institute of Klamath
Falls bounced back from their Fri
day night 62-49 loss to Oregon Col
lege of Education here last night
as the Owls toppled the OCE
Wolves 66-61 in an Oregon Col
legiate Conference cage battle.
The victory boosted the Owla
from last place and lowered the
OCE cagers back into the con
ference basement, after one day
out of the low spot in the league
standings. The win was Tech'a sec
ond against six losses, while OCE
has a 1-6 standing. ,
Johnny Foster poured 26 poinls
through the net to lead the win
ners as they, gained a split in their
weekend series. Tech held a half
tlme margin of seven points, 38-31
after a nip and tuck first half's
action. , '
OTI took an early lead in tha
game, but could never work their
way too far ahead of the always
charging Wolves. With only two
minutes remaining to play in tha
first half, three quick field goals,
one each by Foster, Paul Hatcher
and Bobby Whitman, pushed Tech
into their halftlme bulge of seven
.counters.
In the second half, Oregon Tech
moved out . in front 51-41 with,
about 11 minutes left in the fra
cas. At this point the Mile High
Campus hoopsters took up their
slow and deliberate style of ball
that won them a 69-49 upset vic
tory over Southern Oregon last
Tuesday night at Klamath Falls.
Oregon College narrowed the count
down to five points late in the
game, but that was the closest
the Wolves could get as tha Owls
pulled the contest out of the fire.
Following Foster's 26 high point
efforts came Barry Adams of OCE
with 16. Daryl Girod of Oregon
College added 14. while Tech'a
John McCutcheon tallied 13.
Oregon Tech hit 23 of 63 shots
from the field for a .317 per cent,
while OCE hit on .373 of their
attempts with a 22-59 record. In
the rebound department, OCE
topped OTI 37-31, but Foster led
the individual efforts with 11
snares.
In Friday night'a win by Oregon
College, Tech couldn't standuo un
der a potent second half attack
paced by Cecil Miller and Bon
Jones as they tumbled into the
conference basement position, and
OCE climbed out for the first time
this year.
The win for the Wolves marked
the end of a 13-game losing streak,
five of which were in league play.
The teams were tied 36-26 at
the half, and Oregon Tech boomed
into a- quick 30-26 lead Just as the
second half opened, but OCE
bounced back with a spurt of their
own.
Led by Miller and Jones, the
Wolves began to run and were
not slowed by the Tech quintet. '
Alter OCE built their lead to a
10-point, 40-30 margin there was
little doubt as to the outcome of
the OCC battle. Miller topped the
scorers with 32 points for game
honors, while OTI's Johnny Foster
added 19. Jones hit 11 for the win
ners. This Friday and Saturday. OTI
hosts Portland State College in
another Oregon Collegiate Confer
ence series.
