PAGE t-B Sunday. April 7, 1963 1 ouchak Leads Masters Onto Third Hound HERALD AM) NEWS. Klamath Falls. Or. Mike S For those of you who like track and wish to see it to its top form, slick around awhile and you shall see It. Coach Larry Burleson of Oregon Tech has plans of building this area Into a track minded area and we know of no one bet ter qualified for the Job. He has started the program with his team at Oregon Tech. He now is doun to only six ath letes who are competing in the track program. That sounds hor ribly small for a track team and it is. probably the smallest col lege track team in the nation, or at least it s among we smallest. Burleson's six stars, however. will give everyone they meet some trouble and will win their share of meets. The six will prob ably be six of the best conditioned track men in the Pacific North west. If you have any doubt of this, you should go watch tle boys work out someday. "This Is an Ideal place to work out for track because of the hills all around. You can get In pretty good shape running through these hills," Burleson stated. This Is one of (he reasons there are so few on the team. Burleson's work outs aren't for those who don't wish with all their hearts to be come good (rack men. He has boys who wish to be good in track and are willing to work for it. That is the key to the future track hopes of OTI. Burleson not only works the boys hard just to get in shape, but he knows how to teach them prop erly. "Some guys tend to loaf some until they find out you can do things right with them. Then they really get down to hard work, Burleson said. He has lost some members be cause of the roughness of the work and a few others to grades. "We are hampered some in that some of the boys don't get out of classes here until 5 o clock. "We probably will have some trouble with the bigger schools with a big team in the dual mecls. But I think we will fare waggoner well in the big meets where in dividual efforts count. All these guys will have to be in shape because they will be competing in four or five events in every meet, Burleson said. Burleson plans a big specta lar here May 10. The spectacular will come in the form of the Owls going against Southern Oregon College, but the highlight of the meet will come from Burleson's well . known brother, Uyrol. Dy rol and another formrr Olympian Otis Davis, plan to be here for the meet for some special open events. Thry hope to bring along another pair of former or current Oregon runners to try to set new national four - mile record, This is strictly off the cuff right now because nothing is official on It. But It Is something to look forward to If it does come about. Yanks, Bums Loop Picks ST.

He is assistant football coach and head wrestling coach. He wrote because he has many friends here and felt that they might enjoy some news of his po sition 'and success) now. He said that he had a very fine wrestling team here when the Owls fin ished 10-0 against all competition including Oregon State and the University of Oregon. He was at Grants Pass before coming to Oregon Tech. His wrestling team at San Ber nardino won Its fiflh state cham pionship in six years recently in the State Junior College Tourna ment.

The two years spent there will be remembered among the happiest of my life and for my family too. Best wishes to all my Klamath Falls friends and to you and your fine newspaper, Smith concluded.

Palmer's Play "Ragged" Pre - tourney favorite Arnold Palmer, admitting his game has grown "ragged ", and that he was "getting tired," improved slightly alter his opening round 74 but his 73 Friday left him at 147, eight strokes off the pace and in the same bracket as the amazing 61-ycar-old Gene Sarazen. Never better than a fourth-place finisher in eight previous tries here, Souchak has frequently said that next to God and his family he has always worshipped Masters victory most. 'I wouldn't say I came here without any hope of winning it this time, said the 36-ycar-nkl Grossinger, N.Y., pro after Fri day's round, "but I wasn't exact ly brimming over with confidence. "My game was a little rusty and frankly I was just trying to make the cut. I figured I'd have to do a lot of sweating to make it: Actually, the cutoff point was 152, leaving such casualties as Jerry Barber, Bob Rosburg, Phil Rodgers, Jackie Burke, Cary Mid- dlecoff and Chick Harbert in its wake, but Souchak made it with consummate ease. Mike carded three birdies and one bogey while hitting 13 greens in regular figures. Possibly his finest birdie of the round came on the winding par five 555-yard second hole when he whistled what he called a "miracle shot" three iron second shot just off the back edge of the green. Chips Up Close The ball stopped 40 feet from the hole and Souchak calmly1 chipped to within a half inch of the cup from where all he had to do was tap it in. Nicklaus drew repeated "ohs" and "alls" from the gallery of 25.000 with his booming lee shotsj that helped him string together1 six birdies in his 34-32 round. Jackie, who had an opening round 74, was quite happy about break ing 70 for the first time over the 6,980-yard Masters' course and said of his 66, "you can't play much better than thai." Hebert played with Palmer and said that helped him tremendously. 'Arnold makes you want to play," he explained. "He makes you hit the ball hard. I hit as many past him as he did me." Palmer had such an erratic round with six bogeys and five birdies that after bogeying the nth, he said to Hebert on the 12th, "Just let me get the hell off this golf course." AAV. MaiMi(' km y DISGUSTED DEMARET Three-time Masters champion Jimmy Demaret can't bear to look as his putt for a birdie fails to go into the hole during second round of the Masters tourney play. Jimmy dropped his club and put considerable body English on the ball, but it was to no avail. Demaret had a three-over-par 75 to go with a like store in the first round.
