Walt Smith, who has been set ting new records all season, set another one Saturday. Tile husky built KU junior heaved the javelin 220 feet IVi inches for a new school and district record. It bet ters his best throw in the stale this season by six feet. The old district record was 208-8 held by John Burns of Crater. Smith will perhaps set the new state record next week. The stale record is 220-3 set by Glen Win ningham of Grants Pass in 1959. That was a national record un til it was broken last week by a Louisiana boy with a 'heave of 231 feet. The second qualifier for state is big Bill Mills, another junior. He was second in the discus with a throw of 145-6'j, far below his heave of 156 this season. But the throw was good enough to get him into state. He placed fourth in the shot with a heave of 49-1V The third qualifier for KU was Don Piper. He finished fourth in the 880-yard run but his time was a new school record of 1:59.8 and it took anything better than a 2:00 to qualify for stale. It was a new school record and Jim Beatty Wins Race, Burly Hurt LOS ANGELES (UPD Jim Beatty is one American distance runner who doesn't have to take a hack seat to foreign stars. The little southerner proved that again Friday night when he beat Murray Halberp, New Zealand Olympic champion, in the 5,000' meter race at the Coliseum Re lays. Beatty 's time was 13:57.4. a new meet record. He started a sprint at the final turn in the endurance contest and opened a gap as long as 10 yards over HalberR as he broke the tape. There were not enough pood American runners, however, to neat Halberfi's countryman. Peter Knell, in the relays so - called "Miracle Mile." Snell won in what must he con sidered the ordinary time of 4 00 3. .lim Grelle. who had been; expected to be on hand to push: or beat Snell. was a late scratch because of a virus attack and thisl was probably a factor in the com-l paratively slow time. Snell's world record is 3:54.4. BURLESON INJURED Oyrel Burleson holds his ripped shot after bolnq accidentally spiked during the final lap of the mile run at the Los Angeles Coliseum Relays Friday night.

Growr Dahn, Randy How ard, John English and Arie De- Groot were the runners There were seven new district records established. Smith's jave lin toss was one of the sev Medford's Mike Deibele set a new 220 standard with a fine 21.8 clocking m the preliminaries. Steve Toews, also of Medford beat his own district half mile mark of 2:00.3 with a fine 1:57.7 time. Another Medford runner, Dennis Brumback. broke the mile run standard of 4:28 by Ashland's George Fullerton in 146 with a clocking of 4:25.5. Grants Pass' Bob Shepard broke Klamath's Gary Dawes' high jump record of 6-2, set in 1947. with a leap of fi-3. It and the mile run were two of the oldest records. Deibele's 220 time of 21.8 broke the oldest record of Klamath's Bob Jslie with a 22.2 in 1934. He stilt holds the 100 mark with a 9 8 in m. One of the finest efforts of the day was a surprising 14-foot one inch pole vault by Grants Pass' Gary Van Koten who was sup posed to be out for the season. That set a new rec-ord for the state. Cottage Grove's Mark Hen ningsgaard had the old mark of 14-0 set last week. It broke the old district mark of 12- U 1 4 by Grants Pass' Larry Holmes all to pieces. OISTRICT TRACK RESULTS Shot Put I.

Coach lirry Burleson was proud of tlie way his "Sturdy: Six." performed this season. "I had only six hoys and we got six new school records. We are just building track here and I think it will get better. It was very hot at the meet in Ashland. It was between iHMij and the humidity made it seem hotter. And tlie track was hard and all the sprint ers were complaining of their an kles hurting. The heal over there is worse than here becauM? of the humidity," Burleson stated. FOR GRADUATION1.

"The conference adopted the 440-yard relay and the 330-yard intermediate hurdles for next sea son, ton." Burleson said.

G(t Certificate! a Fes leape Title Tornado By JERRY WAflC.ONKR Herald and News Sports Editor Hie Medford Black Tornado. using the extra base hit as a bludgeon, shattered the ear- long hopes of the Klamath Union Pelicans at Gem Stadium Satur day by whipping the Whitebirds1 m a pair, -2 and 6-4, to win tlie Southern Oregon Conference championship for the second straight season. Tlie Pelicans had to win at least one of the games to re main in contention and stay alive for the remaining two games. But tlie Tornado wrapped the title up by taking the second game also. Tlie Breeze thus has a 13-1 record and the Pelicans a 9-5 mark. The Pels had to win three of the four games with Medford to tie them. The final two games with Med ford have been cancelled since the Pelicans haven't a chance of catching them. Hie first game was simply a case of too much Stu Young and the second game found the Tor nado having to rally for the vic tory. Young, a diminutive south paw who also wiekled the biggest bat on the field, gave the Peli cans a real headache in the first game. Young limited the Pelicans to only four hits. But it wa his big bat which won the game. He slammed 8 bases loaded triple to drive in three runs in the second inning and hit a run- scoring triple in the first frame. He also beat out an infield hit. The Breeze got to starting pitch er Gary Benson in the first frame of the opening game. After two had been retired, Dick Deffley laced a double over Ihe head of Tom Osa in left. Young then hit his first triple. He died there The roof caved in on Benson in Ihe second. Don Anderson led off with a triple and scored on Wayne Couch's single after one was out. Mike Barnes reached first on an error and Dan Miles popped out. But Deffley singled ion a bunt to load the bases and Young tripled again to right cen ter to score three runs. He lal YOUR Liqht as Feather -Solid as a Rock!
