And. of course, there are undoubtedly many wit leei ine same way. Rarely does a stale official pos sess such an impressive sports background as does Republican Secretary of State Howell Appling Jr. He was quite an athlete in his younger days, Appling still maintains an active and enthusi astic interest in sports. Oregon's secretary of state be gan his athletic career as cen ter for the basketball team at Beaumont High in Texas. He de scribed himself as a "fair scor er but no real sensation." He was good enough to qualify for an ath letic scholarship to Rice Institute. The 39-year-old secretary majored In engineering and found that many labs plus outside work made it impossible for him to stay with the sport. Rice Institute hired Appling as Its undergraduate director of. intra mural athletics. The position en abled him to w ork his way through college. He collected 23 IM cham pionships, the most ever won, be fore or since, in the history of the college. He captured titles in tennis, badminton, table tennis, track, and golf. Appling was awarded trophies in football, bas ketball, volleyball and. Softball. With few exceptions it was al most the case of, if Howell Ap- Plmg didn't compete (and win' in a sport, Rice didn't offer the activity. During his undergraduate days he roomed with Bill Christopher, who later became the NCAA broad jump champ in 1943 with leap of 23-7' . Appling and his wife, Jane Eliz abeth, will be in Klamath Falls for the Republican picnic on July 12. A public reception will be held on July 11, the place and time to be designated at a later date. The picnic is scheduled for Malin Park at 1:30 p m.

Mike has been promised tickets to all Giant games while there. He has also been otfered a lion month athletic scholarship to Fresno State College under condi tion that he maintain a C-plus average, according to Principal Ken Cleland of Butte Valley High School. Cleland. who was foach at the high school, unttl becoming it principal, said he would much rather see Mike accept the schol arship than to go into big league baseball. He said college baseball would give Mike further prepara tion for the big time, and the basic education which he will also need Cleland further said that Mike has perfect control of the ball, and that he has pitched more no- five defeats. He struck out six.
