Hawks To Host
Medford Today
The Klamath Falcons, leading the Southern Division
American Legion with a 4-1 record, will get a rugged lest today
when they travel to Grants Pass to take on that tram, (wire
conqueror of Medford. in a league game while the Klamath
Hawks, trying to get bark Into contention, will host the Medford
team at Gem .Stadium al 1 p.m.
The Hawks met Grants Pass al Grants Pass Saturday
night.
Coach John Paxton will go with his usual lineup against
Ihe pesky Grants Pass team. The Falcons will carry a slight
favorite's role into this game. Rich Jackson Is the probable
starter on the mound for the Falcons. Jay Paxton will be behind
the plate, John Gray at first, Marv Yunck at second, LfVoy
Young at shortstop, John I'arlsotto at third. 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.
The Falcons probably will face the offerings of Jerry
MrCormiek who whipped the Medford tram, 10-2. The Klamath
Inion Pelicans, virtually the same tram as the Falcons,
whipped MrCormiek and Grants Pass In the high school season,
t-3. Others who may see action are Rich Wolney, Don Summers,
Pete Hardin. Lyman Keisacker and others. Gary Rrddlrk,
the Grants Pass outfielder, recently signed a contract with
the Los Angeles Dodgers and will be missing.
Coach Irv Khitt has been having trouble finding (he
winning combination with his Hawks against the rugged com
petition. Medford can come with one of the tines( pitchers In
Ihe stale against the Hawks, Stu, Young, one of the Stale
All-Stars. Rill F.nyart also may gel (he starling nod.
loach Whitl probably will go with either Tom Pilgrim
or Steve Young. He will have either Roger Baiilrll or Vrrn
Pe trick behind the plate. Bob Holdt at first, Jon Crume at sec
ond. Curl Coleman at short or third with Max Cunningham.
Outfielders could Include Tom Schiff, Rich Rath and Pilgrim
II he doesn't pitch or Alan Kenyon.
The Klamath Hawks rally in
tlie seventh inning fell one run
shy at Gem Stadium Saturday
night as the Hawks dropped a
iiartbrcaker to the .Mack Ford
team from Grants Pass, 6-5.
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. Pete Hardin ground out
to Young and Forsgren was hold
at third, but to no avail because
shortstop Rich Wolney singled
through the box to score Forsgren
with the fourth run. After walk

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.

three strokes on Boros.
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.
