The meet was highlighted by the outstanding performance of Bonanza's fine Monte Burnett who won the 100-yard dash, the 440-yard dash and finished third in the 880-yard relay with his teammates. He was clocked in 10.2 In winning the 100 and a good 51.8 in copping the gruelling 440-yard scamper. His, however, wasn't the only lights shining.

Smith unleashed the best javelin toss in the state thus far this season with a brilliant heave of 208 feet 8'i inches for a new school rec ord Mills set a new school record in the shot put by heaving the iron ball 50 feet 8't inches. Mills also was a double winner. He took, the discus throw with a toss of 140-. Klamath Union and Bonanza athletes dominated the m e e t There were no team scores kept.

Larry Binney singled to center and Dave John son got a bunt single to load the sacks. Rick Horn lifted fly to right and Parisotto scored after the catch. Benson lilted a long fly to center and Binney scored easily after the catch. The final two Pelican runs came in the sixth. Binney walked, stole second, took third on a fielder's choice by sliding under a tag, and pulled off a double steal with Johnson for the run. Johnson was tagged out at third and Horn, who had reached first on a field er's choice, scored on Benson's double to left center The Cavemen rallied in the sev enth and it looked bad for the Pels for a w hile. They began to hit the tiring Benson. After two were out Pete Hardin singled to center. Jim Morrow had a bunt single and Lyman Keisacker doubled to score both runs. He scored on a single by Rich Wolney for the third run. Benson had given up only one hit going into the sev enth frame. Jackson came on in relief and threw one pitch to gel the side out and halt the threat, The second game was a scorch er, too. The Pelicans scored twice in the first frame again. Guyer led off the game with a triple and Smith singled him home with the first run. He scored on a single by John Gray. The winning runs came in the second when Marvin Yunck singled, was sacrificed to second by Jackson. P e t r l c k walked and Guyer doubled them both in. The Cavemen had a rally going in the fourth inning with two runs across and two out when a throw into Pctrick to cut down the ty ing run was high. Petrick, in Iront of the plate, had to jump to catch the ball. He did so and was prac tically nailed to the cross while in the air. But he held onto the ball, tagged the runner and saved the tying run with another runner still on second. The Pelicans will take on Ash land in a doubleheader in Ashland Saturday. They are now 5-1 in league play. FIRST CAME Grants Pail III Walney, ss 3 0 1 Stanley. 2b 4 0 ( Reddicr.. cl 3 0 1 McCormick p. 2 O C Thomcson, p 10C Summers, lb 3 0 ( Peters, c Hardin, rl Morrow.

The meet ran off well despite the cold weather. But it was clearer than it had been for the past couple of weeks and actually was the best night available for quite some time. The times were almost as brisk as the weather, some exception ally good for running in such cold weather. Burnett's time in the 440-yard dash was one of the best of the night.

(UPI '-Mickey Wright will try for her third straight victory when the 24th women's Titleholder's champion ship begins at the Augusta Coun try Club Thursday. The Titlcholders is the ladies' version of the Masters. Miss Wright, who plays out of Dallas, Tex., won the tournament in 1061 and 1962. If she wins this year she will be (lie lirst to make it three straight since Pat ty Berg (1937 through 1939'. The durable Patty, 20 years older than most of the other en tries, will be back this year and is considered a serious threat. All told, she has won seven championships. Nevertheless. Miss Wright is the favorite, having won two tournaments this year the Sea Island Invitational and the St. Petersburg Open. Another favorite here through the years is Betsy Rawls of Spar tanburg, S.C., winner of the Sun shine Open. But this tournament is to Betsy what the U.S. Open is to Sam Snead. She always manages to share part of the lead and usual ly finishes high but she has nev er won the tournament. him. McLeod was toughest when it counted. He made 18 saves in the second period many of them when Len Haley was in the penal ty box on a five-minute major penalty. He had i saves in the first period and 11 in the third. The Seals hit a goal in each stanza. Orlan Kurtcnbach, Danny Bclislc, and Nick Alickoski tallied the Seals goals with Belisle, hero of the whole playoff battle against Portland, hitting the key go-ahead tally. Halley was given the major penalty for slashing defenseman Jack Bionda of the Bucks on the head with his stick in the closing seconds of the period. Bionda suf fered a four-stitch wound. Portland goalie Don Head also was impressive with 34 saves, 15 in the final period. Seattle, which like San Francisco finished second in its division in regular season play, bumped Van couver 8-2 Monday in their sev enth game to win the Northern Division.
