Testimony in Post Suit Is Resumed Atlanta-IUPD-Insurance man George Burnett, whose pen cilled notes resulted in a Saturday Evening Post alleg ing a rigged football game in the Southeast Conference, will resume testimony today in Wally Butts' $10 million libel suit against the maga zine. Burnett testified Monday he overheard former Georgia athletic director Butts give away football plays to Alaba ma coach Paul (Bear) Bry ant prior to the game be tween the schools last Sep 'tember. The second day of the trial is scheduled to resume at 10 ajn. EST (11 a.m. EDT). . . Burnett testified under questioning that he never .said, the game was compro-imised.- ' "Did you say the game was fixed?" Butts' attorney Ger ald Schroder asked. ' "No," Burnett replied. J "Did you say the game was rigged?" . "No." Schroder asked Burnett if ' he had said the game was ', thrown, corrupt or a sell-out. r The insurance man replied "no" to each question. -" Burnett's testimony was . the highlight of the trial that began Monday before federal 'Judge Lewis R. Morgan. A ' 12-man jury was empaneled to hear the case expected to last about two weeks. Butts' suit was 'prompted by a Post story published March 22 which quoted Bur . nett as saying he was acciden tally hooked into a telephone conversation in which he heard Butts divulge team se crets to Bryant in Tusca loosa, Ala. The Post artcle said the notes Burnett made on the conversation indicated the two men had conspired to rig the game, Alabama, a 17 point favorite, won 35-0. Bryant has a $10 million libel suit pending against the Post in a separate action. During the trial Monday, Butts sat impassively a few feet from the witness stand and kept his eyes fixed on . Burnett. "Coach Butts proceeded to give plays that I was writing down," Burnett testified.

Invasion of Alarming to Portland - An extensive caterpillar invasion of sage lands in eastern Oregon is be ing viewed with alarm by the Oregon game commission, Phil Schneider, state game di rector, has reported. Any substantial loss of sage from this insect pest would be extremely detrimental to deer, antelope and sage grouse, Schneider said , a n d would be particularly acute on winter ranges where sage forms an important part of the diet of these game birds and animals. According to Miles Lang don, range specialist for the game commission, the culprit is a small moth larva which has infected nearly 100 per cent of all species of sage in southeastern, central and parts of northeastern Oregon. Langdon reported the larva, about three-fourths of an inch long, rolls a few leaves into a ball, apparently for a house, and feeds on the leaves and CALL 773-7555 for FREE ESTIMATES MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE.

The infection is rather in, ?ispicuous in its early stages, but quickly erupts to the acute stage. Se verely infected plants have a brownish - yellowish appear ance and are literally crawl ing with the larva, Langdon reported. Final effect on the plants has not been deter mined, but on a similar small scale observed last year in Lake county, defoliation in some instances was sufficient to kill the plants. According to Schneider, an inspection by range specialists in Harney county revealed that all sage lands in the county have the infestation. Areas at the elevation of Burns show sage heavily in fested. At higher elevations in the Steens and Stinking Wa ter mountains infestation ap pears lighter but is affecting nearly all sage plants. Similar conditions were found in Malheur county, Schneider said. In the vicinity of Burns Junction, Rome, Jor dan Valley, and the White horse and Mahogany moun tains Infestation ranged from complete defoliation at the lower elevations to light con tamination at the mountain tops. Bend, Brothers, Prine ville, Mitchell, John Day and Columbia Basin sage lands show varying degrees of lar val infestation. California and Nevada are also experiencing this outbreak. Schneider advised that at present entomologists know very little about the moth lar va causing the damage. Until recently it has gone unnoticed and its identity is still not pos itive. Extension Service ento mologists at Oregon State Uni versity are gathering infor mation, and collections of lar va are being marie in several counties. Schneider said the U.S. DeifaTtmftit of Agricul ture has bn asked to coor dinate the work on this insect to determine its life history, eifect on itflW purees, McPeak today and the Wash. irigton' Redskins coach envi sioned a deadly duo that com bines the pass-catching talents of the Wisconsin All-America and veteran flanker back Bob by Mitchell. ,, i Richter was the nation's 13th leading pass catcher last season, hauling in 38 passes for 531 yards and five Wis- coasin touchdowns.
