HERALD AM) NEWS. Klamath Falls. Or.

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.

Portland Beats
Toronto, 4-3
DAYTONA BEACH. Fla. (UPD
Outfielder John Wojcik's run-
producing single in Uio ninth in
ning gave Portland a 4-3 victory
over Toronto in an exhibition
baseball game Friday.
wojrik drove in the winning
run after singles by new catcher
Jim Saul and pinchhittcr Bill
Shepherd.
The Beavers, who were sched
uled to meet Toronto again here
Saturday, sold first baseman
Dcron Johnson to San Diego Fri
day. They also named outfielder
Jay Hawkins as player coach w ith
Hie club.
We got a letter and some clip
pings the other day from a for
mer Oregon Tech coach, Bob
Smith. He is now at San Bernar
dino Valley College in San Ber
nardino, Calif. 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 Tribe derailed defend
ing champion Fresno. The teum
was led by Claude Potts (177)
and Charlie Trlhble (191), each
of whom won individual titlrs.
Potts was also the outstanding
wrestler of the tournament.
So Smith has gone on from
success to more success. I cer
tainly hope to come back to your
fine city someday for an extended
vacation. 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. And congratula
lions to Smith and his groat suc
cess in San Bernardino.
We are happy to find that at
least one person reads this col
umn when It comes out. We no
ticed a letter to the editor last
week about a man from Illy dis
agreeing with our thoughts on the
big boxing problem going on.
We thank the gentleman for
writing because il proves some
one does read our few humble
thoughts and his right to dis
agreeand in print just furthers
the proof of what a great country
we live in.
And boxing, we think, is a parti
of this great country. We feel thai
there are more boxing funs in
California land Oregon) who like
to sit down on Saturday night
with a good cigar and watch the
fights than those who do not and
will "vote it out" if the vote for
a ban on boxing ever does come
up. We say, Long Live Boxing.

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."

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
