WAYNE SCOTT, "1 Sv " ' , at. ' W m .V star NATIONAL BOW CHAMP --number of Klamath Falls archers who participated in the National tournament, held in Bend last week, displays the plaque and medals she brought home as winner of the Na tional Intermediate Girl's championship. Cheryl was award ed a huge trophy . . . just for a minute. The cup remains in the possession of the association, and, with her name in terred upon it, rests in the national headquarters trophy fBARKS'N' BITES ' " It seems that archery, a coming into its own as a popular participation-type activity. Its rise to prominence as a family sport is reflected by the vast number of bowmen, women and children who eon verged on Fall River, Oregon, lost week for the National Archers Association Tournament. Relegated, unfortunately, to a spot of relative unimportance on Rational sport pages because of the pre-eminence of major, minor. Little League baseball et cetera, archery has been forced to survive on Its own merits, with little or no publicity. ,. But survive, it did. Eight hun Bred archers from all corners of the United States, a handful from Canada, three from Alaska and two from Istanbul, Turkey, met 25 miles from Bend and formed virtual "Camp City" for the four days of the national cham plonships. This corner, of course, is just a guilty of ignoring the bow-and-arrow shooters as any. one else. But the time has come when this situation must change, at least locally . . . especially in'view of the fact that Klamath Falls may now boast a National Champion In the art. Miss Cheryl Ann Baxter, 14, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dale Baxter, has been exposed to the sport since she was a little girl. Last March, however, she decided seriously that she liked the sport. Yesterday she was named Inter mediate Girl's Champion. She and her parents, Dad is the Klamath Archers president, were three' of the Klamath Falls contin gent, the largest winning represen tation from any one club in the country, that vied in the nationals. Sixteen of the 50 members of the KF club entered the tournament and of these IS, 14 placed one, two or three in their respective divi sions during the meet. No mean accomplishment. Entrants in the tournament were classified according to their scores In tourneys prior to the nationals. And the Klamath Falls group gained one more distinction . , . 'Walt Bower, a hearty 75 years eld, was the eldest of all those entered. In addition to the Baxter family, Ed, Maggie and Carolyn Sample, Merle and Esther Hodge, Sid and Gerald Munjar, Bob 'Young, Bob Searing, and Bower made the trip 'and each brought home a plaque er medal emblematic of 'their skill. Sample placed fifth among the Men's heavy tackle division. This too, Is not something done every day ... by Just anyone. Next year the archers will hold their annual championship compe tition in either Florida er New Jersey. According to the Baxter family, the expense concerned with parti cipation m archery is one that ea be easily controlled by the bow man himself. Yoa can pay a lot for equipment . . - or yoa can build your own. It's not what's used, but the way that yoa ese it Tbe Klamath Falls doe has bee Sports Editor CU. a ...

The archers did it themselves . . they built and maintain a 25-target course at Moore Park and were highly instrumental in gaining the special pre-season bow and arrow hunting season on deer n the Keno area. Merrill's Bud M a u p i n. the speedy halfback on last fall's State B grid championship squad, has showed up among the names on the roster at Southern Oregon college in Ashland for the fall term. Personally, I'd rather have Bud. for us than agin' us Ex Klamath 'Union football coach Andy Knudsen left Klam ath Falls Saturday for St. Helens where he will take over as boss of the 195 Lion grid talent this fall. Andy, a member of the Klamath Umpires Association. worked behind the plate In Gem Stadium Friday night on the oc casion of the American-National Ail-Star baseball game. Baseball fans are not necessarily noted for over-exuberance when compliment ing one of the "men In blue" but In Andy's ease it can be easily said that he was probably one of most sought-after officials in the game. While Andy was preparing to leave, another ex-KU coach.

Little Tom McDermott ham mered a towering home run over the left center field fence with teammate Carl McDade on base and two out in the bottom of the last inning to give Rose City a 5-4 victory over the KF Little League All-Stars. In winning Rose City gained its third district title in three years and earned a berth in the State finals set for Portland next week end. Friday afternoon the KF Stars pounded a 10-7 victory over the Monlavilla nine to move into Sat urday's championship match. Rose City cinched its spot in the finals by virtue of a 7-6 win at the ex pense of South Wellington Park. Saturdays game winning blow came off Klamath's Larry Barnes, who entered the game in the sixth inning with no one out, in relief of starter Jim Patzke. Patzke had walked McDade, the first batter, and had a 1-2 count on Kent Pashek when Barnes took over.

But even for Los Angeles where a man with two heads might not be considered eccentric unless hewore only one hat this game presents some curious as pects, i It's unusual, of course, for a second all-star game to be played at all. Ordinarily, this is a once-a-year production. But ' that's hardly the most peculiar feature of this game. For one thing, it's being played at 4 o'clock in the afternoon (7 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time). Up to now, the British are the only people who have ever scheduled anything for 4 p.m. and the best excuse they can find is hoisting tea cups. For another thing, the game has not overwhelmed the local popula tionalthough it's the first all star game in West Coast history and many American League stars will be making their first appear ance here. In addition, many big city news papers which normally send writ ers to the all-star game will not be represented. Sunday.

After Dick Wil liams grounded out, Ditmar walk ed both Roger Maris and Jerry Lumpe, filling the bases. When Ditmar hesitated after starting to pitch to Kent Hadley, umpire Ed Hurley called a balk. The Yankees rushed in to pro test, led by an articulate manager, Casey Stengel. But all that came of it was the banishment of short stop Tony Kubck.
