David meets Goliath on Modoe Field tonight it 7 o'clock in the same eld tradition of the giant against the Utile man. This time the story may hold true because David will be de cided tioderdog. Southern Oregon's track team, one of the most powerful small college teams In the Northwest, represents Goliath and Oregon Tech as David, Oregon Tech's "Stanly Six" will be a big underdog to the Red Raiders. SOC has a massive squad and Is picked to overpower the six Owls. The Owls, however, shouldn't be sold short in some of the events. While they don't figure so poll off the big miracle of wionkj. neither do they figure to get trampled in the events they partake in (or first place. The seconds and thirds probably will overpower the Owls, . Southern Oregon is coming prepared to make a striking assault on the school records. The Owls are coming prepared for the same role. An added incentive to the participants will be the appear ance of world famous distance runner Dyrol Burleson. The former University of Oregon star will appear in this dual track meet and will compete in the open 880-yard run against the tine SOC distance men and Bob Bryant of Oregon Tech.

Doug Sanders and Bill Collins, fortified with anti-pain pills and sharp chipping irons and putters, led the Colonial National Invita tion Golf Tournament field into; the second round today. Sanders, chipping so well we had 12 one-putt greens, fashioned a three-undcr-par 34-33-7 in Thursday's first round. Collins capitalized on a 62-foot chip shot for one of his four birdies en route to a 35-3368. Only two other players were able to conquer Colonial Country Club's 7,122-yard par 35-3570: layout and the gusty w inds which raked the course during the first round. They were Jerry Barber The opening round also marked by the disqualification of! Don January, the man whose snubbing by Colonial officials for! awhile appeared to have touched oil a revolt by other members of the tour. January had a lapse of mem ory regarding the rules and played his original ball out of a water hazard on She eighth hole: alter electing to take a second tee shot.
