HERALD AMI NEWS. Klamath Falls. Ore. Monday, Frhruarv 1. lOfif) PAGE ELEVEN Ovls, Pelicans Set Shot A t Techmen, Vikings Vie Here By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Portland State College and Ore pon Tech both moved farther out front in the Oregon- Collegiate Conference basketball race Satur day night, but something will have to give because the two teams meet Friday night. Portland State, 5-2 in conference play, is a half game ahead of Oregon Tech, 5-3. The Portland team whipped Eastern Oregon 87 S8 and Oregon Tech beat Oregon College of Education, 79-53. Southern Oregon and Eastern Oregon meet this weekend. The Owls, proving coach Wally Palmberg's pre-season comment that they had the potential and would move when they found them selves, blistered Oregon College twice to sweep past idle Southern Oregon. Although the Friday night game was won, more or less, by con tinued use of the "unit" system, I'almberg tempered his substitu tions Saturday night, calling on in dividuals as he needed, them. The two-unit plan had been in augurated in a successful effort to loosen the Owl squad, and Palm berg had stated that it would not necessarily continue, once it had ierved its purpose. Including the weekend series with Portland State, the Owls have 10 games left on the league schedule.

The victory for Superior Troy was never in jeopardy until the final stanza when the victors sub stituted freely while the Oregon Food club bucketed 25 points. Leading 62-47 with 10 minutes re maining, S-T coasted to victory while the losers finally found the range from the floor. Troy jumped to a commanding 24-11 first quarter score, never to relinquish it. By the end of the first half, they increased it to a 20 point bulge and led 45-25. S-T didn't let up and led 62-47 at the close of the third. The Cleaners were exceptionally hot from the court as Dick Young hit for eight goals and 17 points. Dean White, KUHS head basket ball coach, scored seven goals, good for 15 points. In contrast, Oregon Food was more consistent at the free throw line as the game's high point man was Jim Johnson, KUHS athletic director, who hit 22 points. John son collected 14 of them from the foul line. Hank Smith bucketed nine goals, good for 18 points.

Olevia J WAYNE SCOTT, John Thomas Soars To Indoor Record NEW YORK (UP1) John Thomas, the space age's self-propelled human rocket, appears to have an all-expenses-paid trip to Rome this summer clinched if he can avoid such man-made lifts as elevators. Thomas produced the top high jump in track history Saturday night indoors or out when he cleared seven feet, 1'4 inches at the Millrose Games. The feat, topping by a quarter of an inch, the mark he set in the same arena last Feb. 21, led the sellout crowd of 16,000 to give the 18-year-old Boston University youth one of the loudest ovations even heard in Madison Square Garden. It was a cheer that probably will be repeated in Rome when the world's top amateur athletes gather in August for the Olympic Games. About all John has to do to win a berth on the United States loam is avoid injuries such as the elevator accident of last March 27 that almost wrecked the left foot that may become the most famous in high jumping an nals. John's leaps of 7 feet, Hi inches made only five changes in the tentative rules as announced two weeks ago. The final change ex tended the salmon season on the Uropqua River two weeks from October 31 through November 15. AH other tentative rules were re tained. Under the final rules, the gen eral trout season will open on April 23 and run through October 31, except streams in Zones 1, 3, High team game Chambers 1)20 High team series Chambers 2K08 High lnd. game Bobble Weston 197 High lnd. series Darlcne Perry 336 LADY BUG LEAGUE W I, Market Basket 50 26 The Ranch 44'i III '4 Drive More 43'.i 32'i TP Packing 43 33 Lucca Lounge 42's 33 KC Toys 33 38 Frans Foods 38 3R Schulze Tires 36'a 39!a Howards Clnrs. 32 44 First Federal 32 44 A Is Drive In 32 44 Jesse Z.

The Inter national Amateur Athletic Federa tion recognizes only records set outdoors. "I don't know if I'll ever clear 7-3. I'm not even sure if I can do 7-2's," Thomas said after his Saturday night display. "I'm just going to keep on jumping and see what happens. "I can only do one of two things make it or miss it." The "lcapers"' stole the Millrose show. Don (Tarzan) Bragg, who won Ihe pole vault by clearing 15 feet, 4 inches, barely missed be coming the first man to clear lti feet when he brushed off the bar in his last try at that height. Once more a University of Ore gon distance runner has flashed across the finish line first in a race of national prominence. Jim G relic was the latest to do so. Grello, Oregon graduate stu dent, won the Wanamaker Mile at the Millrose Games in Madison Square Garden Saturday night. He did it with flashing speed in the final lap. and 4. Trout opener for the coast al streams was set for May 28 and will extend through October 31 in Zones 1 and 3 and to Oc tober 2 in Zone 4. Trout season for the high lakes was set for May 21 through October 9. Good news for steclhead fishermen was re tention of the extended winter sea son which will run through March 31 in all open streams in Zone 1. In a lively session that lasted throughout the morning, the game commission listened to numerous requests and proposals from an- lers concerning the proposed reg ulations. Salmon anglers from Oregon City made a strong appeal to re place the deadline to its original position. The commissioners then rescinded the original order but gave strict instructions to the di rector to call an emergency clos ure at the falls if low water ham pered upstream salmon migrations or if deliberate snagging and foul hooking of fish became a prob lem. The commission also listened to an appeal by McKenzie River bank anglers and replaced the boating deadline to its original position at Blue River. Boatmen were also present urging the commission for the additional boating water, but the commission's vote went in fa vor of the bank anglers. Despite an urgent request from central Oregon groups and PGE officials, the commission stuck to its guns on the delayed trout open ing at Lake Simtustus on the Des chutes River. A correction was made in the length of the season which will run through October 31 instead of October 9 as pre viously listed. This was not an extension of the season but mere ly a correction as previously pro posed. The commission s stand on the Pellon Dam Reservoir followed considerable study which showed that the bulk of the early season catch in late April and May was young downstream migrant steel head running from six to nine inches in length. Considerable num bers of young Chinook salmon were also tallied in the early season catch. By late May and early June these young migrants moved through the reservoir and appeared only incidentally in the angler's creel. Snake River steelheaders re ceived a break under the new reg ulations which allows them to keep trout during the winter months in that section of the river below Pine Creek. Summer bag limits will apply.

They are Marshfield of Coos Bay, runnerup to Franklin ot Portland in the state class A-l tournament last year; Medford and Klamath Kails. Marshfield, built around 6-9 Mel Counts and ranked No. 1 in the Associated Press poll all season, ran its record to 13-0 last weekend with two more Midwestern League wins. The victims were Willamette of Kugenc, 75-3.i, and Springfield, 53-47. Medford, which got off to a slow start while basketball - playing members of its state champion ship football team were making the transition, beat Grants Pass, Sti es, Friday. The record for Med ford, No. 2 in the poll last week, is 11-3. Klamath Kails, ranked No. 3 last week, now is 12-2 for the sea son after weekend victories over Ashland, 63-50, and Grants Pass, 78-(i9. Medford and Klamath Falls arc in the Southern Oregon Conference but both appear sure of berths in next month's tournament at Eu gene, regardless of which wins the conference title. With Roosevelt's 46-42 upset of eighth-ranked Jefferson Friday, Cleveland No. 4 in last week s poll went into iirst place in the Portland league as it downed Washington. North Bend, No. 5. rebounded from a loss to South Eugene with a 77-51 defeat of Cottage Grove in the Midwestern League Satur day. Its season record now is 11-3. Sixth-ranked I-Icrmiston, after humilating Pendleton, 68-35, lost a non-league game to Walla Walla, 41-37, Saturday night. It now is 13-2 for the season. La Grande, No. 7 and Hermiston's chief rival for the lntermountain title, look two one-sided weekend league victories from Baker. Roseburg, No. 9 in last week's poll, won two Midwestern League games, over North Eugene and Willamette of Eugene. Springfield, No. 10, broke even in two Midwestern contests, beat ing North Eugene but losing to Marshfield. Yrelca Miners Add 2 More YREKA (Special) The Yreka Miners' notched their 15th straight win with an easy 71-47 triumph over visiting Anderson here Satur day night after collecting their 25th straight win on their own home floor Friday night at the expense of the previously unbeaten Weed Cougars. Led by big Bill Wilson who hooked, jumped, tipped and re bounded 17 points Saturday and 28 Friday, the Yrekans had little trouble with either of their week end foe. Friday night the Yrekans bat tled nip and tuck with the Cou gars for the first half then blew the game wide open in Ihe re maining two stanzas. At the quar ter they led 17-6, were up 37-34 at the halfway mark, then zoomed off to a 53-38 spread by Ihe close of the third. Weed's Doug Blankenship, who counted 18, was the closest to Wil-j son's Friday mark. The Cougars were allowed only three field goals in the second half of the Friday league game. Saturday night Wilson sat out a lot of the ball game allowing Anderson's Bill Jones second place in the scoring with 15. Yrekan Gary Gresham notched 11 for Yreka. Yreka had its own way most of the time Saturday except for the third frame when they scored only seven points after the Jayvees took over. The quarter counts were 17-8, 37-14, 43-26, all for Yreka. Friday night Dan McCarthy scored 19 points to lead the Yreka Jayvees to a 58-37 win. Saturday night the Miner minors won a 54 30 count. The shortscores: Weed (47) Scrlbner 4. Smith 0.

The Cincinnati All-America has been sub-par for him lately hut would have to collapse entire ly to fail to pass Frank Selvy's three-year scoring record of 2.538 AFL's Oakland '11' Searches For Coach OAKLAND, Calif. (UPD - Oak land, now certain of a spot in the new American Football League, started hunting today for such necessary items as a coach, gen eral manager, home (ield and some players. "Tilings are very indefinite right now," said diet Soda, one of the team's well-heeled backers following Saturday's surprise de cision by the new loop at its Dal las meeting. "Our first order of SouchakNets Golf Victory SAN DIEGO lUPD - The slim mer he becomes, the fatter his bankroll gets. That's Iron Mike Souchak, the heavy-hitting golfer from Gros singer, N.Y., by way of Duke Uni versity where he played quite a bit of football. Mike came from one-stroke be hind Sunday to win lop prize of $2,800 in the 72-hole San Diego Open, beating out young Johnny Pott, the former Louisiana State collegian who led at the end of three rounds. Souchak's 72-hole total of 269 was a record for the San Diego Open as was Pott's 270. The old record was 271. Pott collected $1,900 for his sec ond place. He won about $12,000 last year and his biggest jackpot was in the Chicago Open when he took second place and won $4,400 He had led for three rounds be fore Ken Venturi nipped him by one stroke.

Oscar has 2.535 and needs only four points against Drake to erase Selvy's standard. If Robertson hits anywhere near his average per game of 33.8 points, he'll move within easy range of the major collc;e four year scoring high of 2.587 set by Dick Hemi'ic at Wake Forest. Robertson, with 573 points in 16 games this season, is rolling to- business is to find a coach and a general manager." The big stumbling block is the team's lack of a home stadium. There is none in Oakland, al though Soda thinks that the citv will pass a 15-milliondollar bond issue in June to build one. Until then, however, the team may have to resort to seeking the use of Kezar Stadium or Candle stick Park in San Francisco. The San Francisco Korty Niners, well entrenched members of the National Football League, play their home games in Kezar and Mayor George Christopher of that city has said "we won't do anything to hurt the Korty Niners." The other city-owned stadium would be Candlestick Park, which will be opened to the San Fran cisco Giants for the coming base ball season. But Christopher also has said he would not sanction spending money to convert the playing area for football. Horace Stoneham, president of Ihe Giants, favors the idea of the Oakland team playing there. "Fine! We'll be happy to have them, as long as they pre-empt our dates," Stoneham said Sun day.
