MAJORS OPEN Defending Champions Strong; Blackfoot Teams Enter Loop i By QUANE KENYON Journal Staff Writer The Pocatello Major a opens ils 21st season of competition tonight with one of the best balanced lineups ever presented. Three teams from Blackfoot have been entered this year to give, the league an inter-city flavor, and the highest averaged teams entered in the league are just 17 pins higher than the lowest. Teams entered this year and their Idaho Thinclad Relates Trip By BYU Squad By BEVERLY BEITZ AMERICAN FALLS-Gary Eliasen, BYU track team member and former American Falls i School track star, related highlights of his recent European trip lo the American Falls Lions club this week. Meeting the high standards of performance necessary for the trip were 12 team members, coach, trainer and tour director.

All were front the western United States, with the exception of one from Finland. The group left Salt Lake City June 18 and flew all the way by jet airliner, returning to this country July 30, Enroute they stopped at Boulder, for the national AAU meet. Earlier in June Eliason competed in the'3000 meter steeplechase at A A meet in Lincoln, Neb. He won third, and noted that this was the first time he had ever run in a stcplechase event, which features stationary hurdles and water hazards. The team spent six days in Sweden, which described as the cleanest and r.iosl modern of any country visited.

They went to Helsinki, Finland, then on to Oslo, Norway. They were in Norway for a tvVo- day International meet and were invited to the U. S. embassy for the traditional 4th of July party. All Americans in Norway were invited to the affair, which Eliasen-described as "fabulous." At the Oslo meet they compiled against two world record holders in the 3000 meter and 800 meter events.

Leaving Oslo, they went to Copenhagen, Denmark, which he described as "a real party town." Next they traveled to Hamburg, Germany, to Zurich, Switzerland and to Paris, France. The i concluded with a meet in Sunderland, England, and five days in London. Elisscn noted that most of their meets were with local athletic clubs, with the exception of the International meet at Oslo. Most ot the European athletes they met were older. Ho opines that European distance runners are better; hut that Americans do better in (he short sprints.

Eliasen graduated from American Falls High School in 1957. He won the stale meet that year, setting a new stale record of 4:29 for the mile. He has been at BYU two years, where he is a marketing major. His younger brother, Norman, is also an outstanding athlete. He won a scholarship to Colorado State University, at Fort Collins, and this year won the VS-milo event in the Empire conference al Grand Junction, Colnrado.

The boys arc soni ftf Mr. and Mrs. Lars Eliasen, who farm near American Falls. listed learn strength are Bannock Motor, 900; Fletcher Insurance, not established; Gem State Cigar, 893; Pino Bowl, S97; Mike's Paint, Blackfoot, 893; Larry's Truck Stop, L. E.

Stevens. 836; Barney Goldberg Jewelers, 802; Idaho Concrete Products, 893; Cobia Construction, 89S; Modern Market, 059, and Anderson Lumber, 833. From last year's performance, two teams look like Ihe ones to beat. One is Gem State Cigar which came on very strong after, setting a new scratch team record in the state tournament. Gem State is the defending champ, having bealcn out Bannock Motor for the second half lille, then taking a with Bannock Motor for the overall championship.

Only Mike Abe is missing from last year's winners, and he had to be dropped to get Ihe team's average under 900. Another team to watch for is the newly-established Larry's Stop group. With a team average of 900, right at the limit, Larry's Truck Stop has Ihe highest average bowler in town, Eddie Allen, probably the best lefthander in Jim Williams, and two good young bowlers who should be real strong this winter. They are Leon Morgan, who should go up five to ten pins from last year's 183 average, and teenager Carl Cook. Cook, a freshman nl Idaho State College, averaged 181 last winter in his first season of bowling and seems headed for big things.

He has dominated the Karen Lanes' Pol of Gold competition for the last two months. The league gels underway tonight at p.m. at the Tough Guy Lanes. Bowlers to watch for are Ace Mori, Joe Sato, Bill and Lcn Bergenddrf, the best bowlers in town last year and newcomers such as Don French on the Idaho Concrete Products team. French averaged 175 last year after a term in Ihe Navy but should be right around the 190 mark this year.

Last year's individual and team records might be hard to beat this winter. In 1MS-59, Tuff Nelson had a 278 game and 708 series but was high in neither category. In fact, Nelson took third in series for the year as first Bill Jocst, 717, and finally Bob Ovard, 737, best his mark. Joe Badger asd lied for high game. Ovard's Gem Slate Cigar (earn also captured high team series for Ihe year with a rousing 3,029 recorded late in the season.

On that night, Gem Slate beat Iheir opponents, Barney Goldberg, by 540 poinls in Ihe three-game aeries. High (earn game last year was a 1,092 recorded by Electrical Contractors, which doesn't have a team entered Ihis lime. Virtually all of Ihe best bowlers in PocateJIo and BlacMno! will be on hand lo slart the eight- month season asd a good speclator lurnotit -is expected.
