Pelican Thinclads In Cal-Ore Meet Pucks keep their feathers oiled by means of n large gland just above the tail. The Pelican track team will get its first taste of competition Saturday afternoon when they travel to Ashland to enter tho Oro-Cal track meet, weather per mitting, of course. This will be the first meet of the season for the Pelican thin clads and they won't be going all out; No, we probably won t go full steam this first meet. I ex pect we will have somo good in dividual performances, but 1 don't expect too much team-wise. We are still trying to get in good condition and work out the kinks," Coach Jack Peterson said. 'We've looked pretty good in practice, but it's hard to tell what they will do in a meet. Ann we haven't had the best weather conditions to practice under, eith er, Peterson staled. Peterson will be taking about 40 athletes to the meet which is to lie held at Southern Ore- fan College. He has lettermen back with which to build, the team around. He has Bill Mills in the shot put and discus, Walt Smith in the javelin, Ron Hitchcock in tho pole vault, Grovcr Dahn in the .sprints und broad jump, Terry Kcclcs in the high jump and hroad jump, Dick Scott in the high jump, Ray Thome in the pole vault, Don t.rahnm and John English in the hurdles, Don Piper in the RflO and AW and Steve 1-flwmii'O in the mile. 'I think wo are fairly strong in tlie field events with good first men and some good ones in the econd spot. Boh llolman, who transferred here from Yrcka, will hack Mills up in the shot and di uis. We could he fairly atroni! in tho distance races with Piper sophomore Don Scholl and I-nw rvnee," Peterson said. Scholl won .several cross country races and Picr and Lawrence were al ways close. "We have all young hoys in the sprints with the exception of Dahn. But tlie sophomores are good sophomores Arie DeGroot, Randy Howard and Eccles," Pc tcrson said. 'We seem pretty strong in thol hurdles in the first spots with Eng lish and Graham. .After that there are a lot of young kids who are working hard. 1 expect them to come on late in the year They won't be much help at the first of the season but experience should bring them around. Eng lish and Graham are doing good jobs on the hurdles now," he said. , 'There will be quite a few schools in the meet Saturday. There are four classifications, A. B, C, and D. We will be in Class A with Medford and Grants Pass. Those are the only three big schools that I know of, unless they have added some more re cently." Peterson explained. He said that he would be able to tell nioro about the fortunes of the Pelican truck team after this meet. The league schedule has changed somewhat this season in that the teams will play 16 games rather than eight of last year. Last season the teams played one seven - inning game which counted toward league standings and a five frame game winch didn t count. This sea son doiii games win Be seven stanzas and both will count. Su perior pitching depth could tell the story of the league winner. Klamath finished second in the league last season to Medford Willi a 6-2 mark. Medford was 7-1 and suffered its only loss to the Whitebirds. The Black Tornado is loaded again this season. Gray is the leading hitler through the first two games with five safeties in seven at bats fori a lofty .714 average.

Miss Press achieved a throw of 59 feet, 8 inches, improving her own indoor record by one and a half inches, in a meet in Lenin grad. By United Press International They say spring exhibition games don't mean a thing but manager vMvin "Dark of the San Francisco Giants is beginning to wonder. The Giants are the defending National League champions but they've looked the part of stum bling, bumbling eighth-placers. They've lost three games in a row, 10 of their last 11, 12 of their last 14, and Thursday dropped a 4-1 decision to the Chicago Cubs at Phoenix, Ariz. With the opening of the National League pennant race only 10 days away, Dark is beginning to be come impatient. Lou Brock hit a key double and triple to pace the Cubs' 10-hit attack Thursday. Ernie Bowman had two singles and a double for the Giants and Tom Haller hit a homer. If the Giants are looking for1 company during their spring frus tration, they can easily find it in the persons of the New York Yan kees. Reds Edge Yanks The world champs had to re main on the field away from their Madison Avenue activities for a full 11 innings Thursday before dropping a 3-2 decision to the Cin cinnati Reds. Ken Walters dou bled home Tommy Harper in the Uth to give the Reds their margin of victory. Carroll Hardy had a triple and two singles to lead a 19-hit attack that brought the Houston Colts a 12-4 decision over the Boston Red Sox. Bonus baby Rusty Staub hit a three-run homer and Ellis Bur ton also homered for the Colts. The Los Angeles Angels raised their spring record to 14-5 with a 4-3 victory over the Cleveland In dianstheir third straight ninth- inning triumph. Rookie Charlie Dees' pinch-hit single with the bases filled in the ninth drove in the decisive run. Harvey Haddix allowed only one hit for six innings a double by rookie Bob Saverine as the Pitts burgh Pirates defeated the Baltl more Orioles, 6-0. The Pirates got eight hits and four walks good for five runs in the first five innings against Chuck Estrada. Canillll Breaks Tie The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the New York Mets, 4-2, in 14 in nings, with Doug Camilli's solo homer breaking the 2-2 tie in the! top ot the final frame. Larry Sherry, making his best showing of the spring, pitched six shutout innings for the Dodgers. Paul Ratliff, 19-year-old rookie bonus catcher, hit a homer and two singles to lead the Minnesota Twins to a 3-2 win over the Kan sas City Athletics as Lee Stange and Gerry Arrigo held the A s to four hits. The Washington Senators beat the Detroit Tigers, 5-4, on the wings of eighth-inning homers by Tom Brown and Jim King. Brown also had a single and a double and drove in three runs to lead Washington's attack. Ernie Brogho and Diomedes Oh vo teamed in a two-hitter as the St. Louis Cards beat tlie Milwau kee Braves, 3-0. Eddie Mathews made both Milwaukee hits and was erased in a double play each time. No other Brave reached base as the two St. Louis pitchers faced the minimum of 27 batters. It was the fourth shutout suffered by the Braves this spring. At Lakeland.

(UPD Last vear s National League cnampion San Francisco wants toaay oc-i cuoied the bottom rung of the exhibition major league standings When the Cubs bounced the Gi ants 4-1 Tuesday here, it madel the Giants 6-13 for the spring and moved them back of the Windy City squad, now 7-13. The Giants' sorry mark does not even count loss to their Tacoma farm hands. San Francisco tried to return to the win trail when they met the Boston Red Sox here today. The Giants also announced that eight players were being sent to Casa Grande, Ariz., for re assignment. - They included bonus baby Bob Garibaldi and five other pitchers Jerry Thomas, Ron Horbel, Bob Gayeski, Bob Bishop and Danny Rivas. Also sent down were in fielder Charley Peterson and out fielder Carl Boles. Garibaldi and Boles, who has been injured all spring, perform ed for last year's squad. Although exhibition games don t mean much, it is still a fact that the Giants have won only one of their last dozen Cactus League battles. nicy collected nine hits oil a quartet of Cub hurlers, but the San Francisco offense was really confined to two men. Little Ernie Bowman whacked out three hits in as many tries and is now sticking an incredible 8-for-9 or .889 this spring. San Francisco's tally came when Tom Haller whacked bases-empty homer in tlie ninth. The Cubs meanwhile hit Billy O Dell pretty steadily, picking up 10 safeties in eight innings.

The Eastern Division best-ol seven final scries continues at Cin cinnati tonight w hile the St. Louis Hawks rest for the start of their Western showdown with the Lakers which starts in Los Ange les Sunday. Coach Charley Wolf's Royals even had the nerve to borrow Bos ton's prize strategy in scoring a 135-132 upset victory Thursday night. The Celtics, while winning sev en straight Eastern titles and five of the last six playoff crowns have been famed for their pow erful "bench," their reserves who leap in to pound already reeling opponents. But Cincinnati got a surprise one-game jump in the series open er by using its own three-man bench force.

Wolf could rave about his, bench all he wanted, but 13,798 Boston Garden customers went away talk-! ing about the ."Big O," Oscar Robertson.
