By JKKRY WAGGONER
The first annual Klamath Coun
ty Track Meet, sponsored by the
Pelican Booster Club, was a big
success time-wise at Modoc Field
Tuesday night despite clear, but
cold, weather.
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. Walt Smith and
Bill Mills, both wcightmen of
Klamath Union, set new school
records in their specialties. 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.
It was strictly an individual meet
with the top five finishers in each
event getting a ribbon.
It was the first such track meet

BUFFALO, N.Y. (UPI - Two
St. Louis pros Don Carter and
Harry Smith meet today in a
match that will hand one of them
his first defeat in the American
Bowling Congress masters tournament.
The two emerged Tuesday night
as the only survivors of the win
ners' bracket as the double elim
ination matches ground into the
semifinals. The winner of their
match will face the losers bracket
survivor tonight to determine the
masters champion.
Carter put on a show Tuesday
night as he racked up a four
game 1017 to give him his fifth
straight victory. He was like a
machine against Bobby Meadows
of Dallas, who managed a re
spectable 793. Carter's total was
the third of his career over 1,000
He holds the four-game record of
10(14.
Smith earned his fifth straight
success against Jim Stefanich of
Juliet, 111., Tuesday night, 929 to
729.
In late action Pete Tountas of
Calumet City, III., eliminated Billy
Welu of St. Louis. 822 to 792. while
Bill Lillard of Dallas cut Joe Jo
seph of Detroit, 904 to 856.

throw. Larry Smith lined out to
ccnterficld and Mike Hitching sin
gled Guyer home.
Smith started the rally in the
third with two outs when he sur
prised the Cavemen by laying
down a bunt and beating it out.
He tallied when Kitching golfed a
double to left center for the sec
ond run.
Coach Bill Mansfield's club tal
lied two more in the fourth when
John Parisotto led off with
base on an error. 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.

put on here and is to become a
yearly thing. 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. Kim Hale of
Chiloquin surprised for second
place and beat out KU's Geniit
DeGroot (or that spot.
John- English copped the 180
yard low hurdles in the time ol
22.7. Tlie 220-yard dash was cap
tured by another Bonanza runner.
The Antlers' Robert Rice won
the event in a strong clocking of
22 2 with KU's Arie DeGroot sec
ond and Grover Dahn of KU
third.
The pole vault finished in a five
way tic. All live of the finalists
went out at the 11-0 mark. Bud
Lummus. a sophomore, was
judged first on fewer misses.
Brent Hicks and l.es Thurman
were tied for second and third
and Ray Thome was lourth.
The high jump probably was
the biggest surprise of the night.
A fresliman, Kurt Petersteiner,
outdueled his KU teammates to
win the high jump at 5-8'j. Steve
Baker was second, Dick Scott!
third, Fred Kelley fourth and
Henley's Earl Allbritton fifth.
Dahn took the broad jump with
a 19-3 leap in the closest field
event of the day. Teammate Ter
ry Eccles was second with a
jump of l9-23i. He was ahead
of third place Wilcox of Henley
who jumped 19-23.
Mills captured tlie discus and
Henley's Tom Sanders was sec
ond and Shcrm Kalina of Malin
third.
Don Graham took the 120-yard
high hurdles in tlie relatively slow
time of 16 flat. He has a clock
ing of 13.4 in tlve event. Fred
Kelley was second. Bonanza's
Ricky Steber third and Maxwell
of Henley fourth. Ted Roller of
Merrill was fifth.

Miss Wright
After Golf
Title Again
AUGUSTA, Ga. (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.
