Thnt afternoon, the group went to Son Francisco where After getting up at 5:15 a.m. Tuesday to get to the Vcntor show on time at 7:15 a.m. and the TV dhow at 8:30, the group hnd breakfast and they returned to their Berkeley hotel for the first real breather of the trip. At noon, they attended a Kiwanis luncheon in Berkeley, and each member of the Berkeley club received a small packet of Klnmnth Gems. That afternoon, the f;ioup took a sluhteclnrt tour of Sun Froncisco. which wound up at Fisherman's Whorf for dinner. Then the group rode the. Powell-Mason Cable Car to Market Street, where-, they boarded their bus for the hotel. They returned Wednesday morn ing. While on the telecast, they pre sented the station with 100 small boxes ot potatoes which were to be presented free with no strings to the lirsi 100 viewers asking for them. They also hid boxes for the production crews at both I KFRC and KPIX-TV. Basket-types represented Include burden bn.kcts, seed beaters, gam bling trays, nuish baskets and plaques. A rare item Is a puir of woven tule moccasins, which prob ably originated with the Klamath. This type of footwear. Schaeffcr staled, is quite rare since the In dians have not made or worn them for many years. Other native specimens in the collection are containers woven in imitation of cups used by white Americans, goblets and wall plaques. SrhaeUcr said yiat although these miKht be spurned by tra ditional collectors ot Indian aril tads, they are of Interest in .show ing Iudi:m adaptation to white man's patterns. The techniques represented are piedominately twining, with coiling used in only two or three of the articles. Toe representative snecimens in the collection will be nut on tern- nornrv disnlav. The remainder will then be studied to determine their providence. No dates as to tribal identuv accompanied the roller. Uou. It may be necessary lo con sult the (ew surviving weavers among the Klamath and Modoc people, as well as students of bas ketry, to determine the age and origin. Archeology, Dr. Schacffer stated. Ivih shown that finer weaving is an extremely old industrial art and Wchnuiue in Southern Oregon. In view of this he snld. lt is desire able that the Klamath County mu seum enlarge us collection of bas kets as much as possible. The museum stall is grateful for the Baldwin collection, the curator said, inasmuch as It provides a nucleus for an extensive collection. Most of the baskets now exhibited ai the museum are on Inun and can be removed at the will of the ounet s. It is hoped, he said, that the collection can be xpandrd in tu tu re year to include most vaneties once mad by 'he Indians of South ern Oiv8'n and Norther;i Califor nia There at the museum they will be available for study and dis play.
