Z- From Iht size of the crowd attending the txhibi
flon Northwest League baseball game at Gam Stadium,
Friday night, I believe one might safely assume that Klanv

Not at Right anvway ar aot this early ill the year. -
I even took a heater up to the

Although the Lewiston Broncs and the Trl-City Braves were a
little disturbed at the lack of tans ... I think they were secretly
glad they didn't have to play more
than the two innings they did. And
I can't blame them.

Dairy, opened the door to semi
pro baseball for a number of
Klamath Falls lads who figured
to miss out this season when he
took over the sponsorship of the
town's only semi-pro club this
year. Belcastro will call his club
the "Medo-Bells."

The Burlcson-Cunliffe duel came
loff in the Oregon-Stanford track
meet. The track was fast.
Cunlilfe, a senior who has
bloomed as a miler in the past
year, set the pace through most
of the rare. He finished in 4:00.4,
al-,o qualifying for the Olympics.
nullifies lap limes were 62 sec
onds, 2:02 and 3:01, with Burle
son dogging his steps by two or
three strides.
Cunliffe still was ahead as he
entered the final turn. Then Burl
eson opened up, and passed Cim-
i it to on the outside.
Burleson's best previous out
door time this season was 4:16.1.
But he ran an indoor mile in
4:05.4 earlier tin's year. Last year.
he won the mile in (lie U.S.-Rus-sian
meel. the AAU and Pan
American Games.
Elliott holds Ihe record for the
best mile run in America, 3:57.8!
in Los Angeles in May 1958.
The previous best mile by an
American was run by Don Bow
den of the University of Cali
fornia. His time in a 1957 meet
in Stockton, Calif., was 3:53.7.
Alter the race Burleson was
asked what he thought was re-1
sponsible for his victory. He re
plied that he always raced against
his competitors, not the clock, and
added:
Give the credit lo Cunliffe. He
did the work and made it rela
tively easy fur me to kick by him.
Being out in front like that always
puts a runner al a disadvantage."
Oregon Coach Bill Boworman
said Burleson had never before
run against anyone who could set
pace like Cunliffe,
Burleson's victory In Ihe first
event of the day paved the way
for Oregon's 87-44 victory over
Stanford.
Cunliffe and Burleson had been
expected lo run in the 880 later
in the day, but neither entered!
that race. , ,. , .
The meet's lone double winner
was Dave Edstrom of rcgon. He
took both Ihe high and low hurdles,
and placed third in the broad
jump shot and discus.
