Larry Blnney, Mike hitching and Dave Johnson In the outfield. Lanny Guycr, at sec ond, and Larry Smith, In the outllrld, are probable reserves which will see action for the Falcons.

Others who may see action are Rich Wolney, Don Summers, Pete Hardin. Lyman Keisacker and others.

The victory gave the Grants Pass team a 4-1 record and a temporary tie with tlie Klamath Falcons for first place. Tlie two teams meet today in Grants Pass, however, and the lead will be on the line. The loss left the Hawks with a 2-3 record in the Southern Division of the American Legion. It was a heartbreaking loss for .Larry Forsgren to plate JlcCor- mick.

Big Sky Loop Interested In Post-Season Bowl Games BOZEMAN 'UPI' - The Big Sky Conference is interested in post-season bowl games for its football champion. League Com missioner Jack Fncl said Sat urday at tlie conclusion ol a two day con.'erence meeting "It would be presumptious of us to approach other conferences for a possible bowl tie-up at t h e present time." said Fnel. "How ever, if any possibilities look good lo us, we'll be interested.'' Tlie new commissioner, basket ball coach at Washington State lor 30. years, also discussed the pos sibility of a prc-season basket ball tournament for leapue mem bers. It would be necessary to invite two guest teams to make up an eight-team licld. "It's possible thai vimelhm can be or;anized alter the confer ence gets on its feet," Friel said. "Tournaments of this type have been highly successful." Friel says he is pleased by the operating code adopted by con ference officials Saturday. "It places the primary responsi bility for the enforcement of the code upon individual institutions and I think that's where it be loncs." he said. Friel predicted the conference would have excellent competitive balance and believes it now needs only time to establish itself. Friel said be was "pieascd by the cooperative spirit of the peo ple at the meeting and by their sincere efforts to get the league underway." One of tlie chief actions of the athletic directors and faculty rep resentatives of the conference's six schools was to establish a commissioner's nltice at Puiiman. Wash. Thev also adopted tonlerence ItootDall and oaskemau scncnuiesi through 1970 and approved a North-South baseball playoff be-! ginning next spring.

Young whiffed John Blanhard but gave up another triple to eontorfielder ' Doug Olson Cops jjunior Goif EUGENE 'UPI i Doug Olson of Medford overwhelmed Dave Hamakcr of Eugene 10 and 9 to win the junior division title in the Oregon Golf Association junior tournament Friday. Olson, a 16-year-old taking his first crack at the junior crown took a 7 up lead by firing a six-under-par 56 in the first la holes of the 36-hole finals. Eddie Morris of San Diego won the boys' division championship and Pccgy Conlcy of Spokane cap turcd the girls' division title.

But nerves steadied by the grind of years of competition made the difference as Boros, the Open champion in 1952, and ' Palmer, tlie winner in 1960, col lared him in the final few holes to send it into a three-way tie and a playoff at 2 p.m. EDT Sun day. Boros waded through this windy day, with gusts up to 45 miles per hour, with closing rounds of 76-72 for a nine over par total of 293. But he sat help lessly in the clubhouse as Cupit seemed headed for victory. Turd Momentarily Palmer went eight over par on the 16th hole with a 30 foot birdie putt that for 30 seconds tied him with Cupit. who was eight over playing the 15th. But young Jacky, on the heels of a gigantic roar from "Arnie's army." stepped up and chipped into tlie cup for a birdie three. It looked like it was all over when Palmer missed a three-foot putt on the 17th hole to fall two shots back of Cupit. But then young Jacky took the pipe. On tlie 17th be drove his tea shut to the edge of a trap, was short of the green with his sec ond, knocked his third over the green and had to settle for a dou ble bogey six. Boros was huppy now, his pok er face splitting into a grin. For now both Palmer and Cupit had to par the tough 18th to tie him. Palmer had it rough. He need ed a five footer. And they could hear the gallery in downtown Boston when he knocked it home for closing rounds of 77-74 which tied him with Boros. That's when Cupit met the test, too. He had all but thrown it away when he sprayed his drive into tlie rough on the 18th. But the Texas kid went for it and rapped his approach arrow- straight to the green and only 13 leet trom the pin. Now he still could pull it out hut It wasn t in the golfing cards. His putt missed by Uiree inches and the Open had its first three-man playoff since 1950 at Merlon among George Fazio, Lloyd Mangrum and Ben Hogan. Cupit, one of five pro golfing brothers, h.id lhat $16,000 in his pocket until that heart - breaking double bogey on the 17th and fin ished the day w ith a 76-75 for Ihe 293 that swept him into the tie with Boros and Palmer. Wind Took Ha Toll ' The wind was sheer murder when coupled with the rugged- ness of the course. Jay licbort shot an 83 in the morning round and called it "Tho worst round I've ever played, including when I was a kid." Big George Bayer clouted out an 81-80 m his two rounds. Veteran Bob Gajda, first round leader with a 69, skied to 84-80 down the stretch. Big Mike Sourhak hammered out a morn ing 82 and Tommy Aaron breathed fire with a 42-4991 in the morning. So actually, while not sensa tional, those triple tie scores of 293 were highly satisfactory at least to Boros and Palmer. Just one shot back of them came gray-haired Paul Harney, disappointed once again with a 73-73 for 294. Because the native New Englander finished second when he Inst a playoff to Palmer on the first extra hole in last week's Thunderbird and had come home from his club job in California with extremely high hones.
