Oregon club event goes public

After securing star football player Fred Biletnikoff of the Oakland Raiders for their annual Sportsman Night meeting, Rogue Valley Hoo-Hoo Club of Medford, Or., figured they had such a good thing that they would open the meeting to the public as a Father and Son/Daughter gathering. It quickly sold out.

More than 400 were at the Red Lion Convention Center and the kids were having a ball. Lew Merrill Lumber contributed a free Coke bar for the kids and pass receiver Biletnikoff gave his talented hands a work-out by signing autographs for a solid hour.

Following a well-photographed dinner, Biletnikoff fielded questions, with as many coming from the girls as from the boys. He was up at 5:30 next morning to make 10 a.m. practice in Oakland. Missing practice, he noted, carries a $300 fine.

Rogue Valley Hoo-Hoo club gave special credit to John Austin and Earl Stelle and their employer, Rogue

Forest Products, Lew Merrill Lumber Sales and Charlie Fox, Western Lumber Sales, for their efforts in arranging the meeting.
