Patterson, who likes to sew and makes his own capes and robes which he wears into the ring, is often the butt of Jokes by other wrestlers as a result, but once he gets into the ring he becomes a terror. Hunter, a neophyte in the grappling business, is a speed merchant who does a lot of spectacular tumbling during his matches.

DOUBLES RESULTS: First Round Gary Highland and Mike Naumes Med., bye; John Bassford and Dick Grelle Beats Beatty ln1500RunatGames Sao Paulo, Brazil - WD - Slim Jim Grelle upset famed Jim Beatty in a record 1500 meter run and the United States added a total of nine mure gold metals in track and field, women's basketball and boxing to wind up the Pan American games Saturday night with a red, white and blue flourish. The final day of extensive competition the games end today with an equestrian event !-nd closing ceremonies gave the United States a huge total of 107 gold medals in the two-week long Pan Am games. Grelle s victory over Beat ty, the 1962 Sullivan Award Klamath Lake Mullet Running Portland-Trie Klamath lake mullet (Catostomus luxatrus), a particular species of sucker native to the Klamath basin, are beginning to run and pro viding great sport to fisher men. And the most popular meth od of taking these large fish is with , snagging gear, the only game fish in Oregon which may be taken legally by the snagging method. Art Gerlach, district fish ery biologist at Klamath Falls, reports that schools of mullet are concentrating around shore line springs and are beginning to push into Klamath lake tributary streams on their Spawning runs. The Klamath mullet may be taken the year around at any size and in any numbers. The fish seldom bite on hook and line though an accasional fish may be hooked on small baits. Because of their un social attitude toward hook and line angling, these ifsh may be taken by spear, gaff, or snag hook. The most popular fishing time is during the spring when the fish scr col end con gregate near the shore line and in the rivers on their spawning runs. Flesh is white and firm and is excellent smoked, the favorite method of preparation by most an glers. During the early days, the Klamath lake mullet was a major source ot loon lor the Klamath Indian tribes. The fish is large, some go ing to IS and 20 pounds. Most of the mature fish will run anywhere from S to 10 pounds in weight. Its color is dark- greenish to black on the back and aides, whitish on the belly. Its mouth is round and sucker-like. me, M L PI By carl tinder 1 1 JfVJ. Retreadi a r respectable nowadays. Gone ere the days of World War II when a tire any tire was worth IH weight In void, regardle of condition. This was the aae when cheap- junky recaps went the thing, but that couldn't be helped. There simply wasn't enough rubber around and the tech niques or recapping and re treading were In their Infancy. Intelligent tire maintenance pays off, and so does judicious recapping If we're willing to take stock In the practices of the Urge trucking firms. As a general rule, thev put on their first recap after 60,000 miles, and their second recap 40,000 miles after that. They don't wait until there's only rag left before they bring a tire Id for recapping. In a matter of minutes the expert attendants at CARL'S lASTSIDI SHELL can put re caps or new tires on your car. Knowing that you and your family are safely riding on de pendable tires Is certainly worth the small price vru pav fnr tires. Drive In to 700 E. MAIN or call 772-9017 for FREE pickup and delivery.
