PAGE 2 B It AH Happened Jtbarks 'N' bites Last year (yesterday, namely the bugaboo lhat nearly pops up to plague sportswritcrs (using the term loosely) when they Imally de cide to earn their money, popped up. No space well, not enough, any way. Or perhaps too much happened in ln.if) at any rate today's column takes up where 1 left off with the happenings in sports around the county last year. Just in case jou're still with me . . . here goes. County B Leaguers In district action .Merrill topped the St. Mary's Crusaders twice. 59-49 and 47-41, and won the right to vie in the state B tourney in Bend. At Bend (he Huskies won third place; (hey dropped Voncalla 49-45 5 i. JACK KEMNITZER . . . Won't bo back In the opening round, fell 57-55 (o Pilot Rock in the semis on a lust minute shot from 25 feet out, (lien Whipped Joseph 61 -51 for the cli max. Pilot Rock went on to win the crown. The Huskies placed Maupln and Brlrkner among the Tournament All-Stars. Maiipln was the number tour scorer in (lie tour ney with a 15.3 game nvcruge. Bly was the number two team among the county cagers with an 8-3 mark (or league play. Bobcat Jerry Patzke won the league scor ing championship with 271 points. an 18.1 average. Jerry and cousin Jim Patzke were Illy cagers who1 rated berths on (ho counly tourna ment All-Star (cam. Bonanza's diet Schooler was I he number three scorer in league play with 251 points for a 14.8 aver age. Schooler was also named to the tourney All-Star team as were Malin's Rick Illian and Randy Mil ler. Chiloqtiln was honored by the ap pointment of Ron Hoggarth and John Ochoa to the tournament star team. In track Merrill again held the upper hand, winning second place in the Slate meet after having fin ished second to the powerful St. Mary's of .Med lord in the district competition. Bonanza rated fourth In the district while Mulin, Chllo quln and Bly were fifth, sixth and seventh respectively. Husky Chuck Roller won firsts In both the high and low hurdles. Merrill sent Bud Mnupin, Don Russell, Roller, Dick Beasly and Dick Marks to tho state meet while Bonanza sent Al Brooks and Gary Daylcy; Chiloquin sent Doug Van Warmer and Ron Hoggarlh and llalin was represented by Rick Il lian and Bly , by Gary Henderson. The Malin -Mustangs won the county baseball titlo with a 5-1 rec ord then moved on to nab the Dis trict 5-B crown with a win over Prospect. In the slate quarter-fin als, however, they were stopped by Maupin, 6-4. Their top chuckcr was Randy Miller while- Illian did the catching and wielded a mean bat. Joining Illian in the batting chores were Don Johnson and Ron Mill lanix. Miller was undefeated and unscorcd upon in league play. During the '59 grid season Mer rill and the vaunted St. .Mary's crew kept pace with one anothci until the final game ol the season when the Crusaders blasted the Huskies out of contention, 4(-J(i in Mcdlord. The Crusaders went on to win the state crown, which Mer rill had won the previous year with the largest score ever piled up ill any state title light Abe Kirkpatrick of Malin scored 86 total points over the season to win the counly scoring honors. All-Indian Cagers Rapidly becoming a tournament of major proportions, the All-lmllnn basketball tournament held annual ly at Chiloquin, sponsored by the Chiloquin JaycecJ, the classic at tracted teams from all over the West. In 1939 the Warm Springs Mag pies won a berth In the big affair with sweeping wins over Klamath Aeoncy. Beatty and Pendleton. 1 he game scores were 85-49. 92-46, and 1 y'j f" V". :J 86-60. During the big tournament itself the Magpies finished out of the money as Lodge Gras of Montana wori the meet for the second year In t row, posting triumphs over La- Conner (97-86), Reno 79-74 and Browning (94-86). Murray Hardwood, of Browning, set a new lliree game scoring rec ord of 127 points for a 42.3 game average. Tennis In the year's biggest tennis dis play of talent locally, the annual Herald & News Labor Day Tourna luent, a three day affair, Port land's Hill Rose won the men's sin gles championship and teamed with Bill Davis, Portland, to an nex the men's doubles crown. Valerie Williamson, a cute blonde from Eureka, grabbed the women's singles title while Jimmy Jackson, formerly of Klamath Kalis, paired with Patty Miller of Portland to latch onto the mixed doubles tiara. Larry Brooks of Eugene won the junior men's singles title handily. The annual Ili.V tourney, now be ing emulated in other parts of the stale, is under the direction of Karl Brooks, who also plays each year. lie is joined by a great number of other KK aces as well as en trants from all over Washington, Oregon and Northern California. Klamath Kubs There have been better years for die Klamath Kubs, KF's only semi-pro baseball team. The Kubs, under (lie direction of manager Irv Whilt. ended up with a base- mei.t-sharing 3-7 Northern Califor nia League season record. I or the full season, counters and non-counters, the Kubs won three and lost nine, the remaining two games on the slate canceled by Whitt when he learned that he could not field a complete team. Danny O'Brien and his Yreka Indians won the league crown with a 7-won, 3-losl record and O'Brien also directed the North All-Stars to a win in the annual North-South imc. Rube Johnson, a state policeman when not swinging a bat. topped the Kubs with a hefty .538 stick average. Johnson caught for the Kubs and played the outfield, and lau there been an inspirational award presented to a team play er, would have undoubtedly packed off the medal. Blake Griggs, Dave Saks, Dean Dunson, John Bianchi, Rich De pew and Don Wiley, all Klamath Union ballplayers, joined the club a'ter the American Legion nine had disbanded for the year. Little League It was a good year for Klam ath 1' alls and South Suburban Little League ballplayers. Combined community efforts on the part of both city and county residents provided the little guys nciv ball parks, built to scale licit they could exercise their special talents. The KF league sent an all-star am to Portland to compete in the sla.c tournament for the first time and they almost won the title. The Suburbanites, who necessar ily had to complete their first year as an accredited member of the national association before enter ing tourney competition had a great year fielding more teams in both major and minor leagues than many thought possible. Gene Favell directed the KF teams as president while Maj, Bill Harris was responsible for the South Suburban teams and both had much help on the part of their neighbors and Ihc boys parents. Both organizations have new proxies to lead (or the coming year Frank Rickey taking over the city teams and Gary Dawes directing the activities ot the Sub urbanites. Mills Little League Field became a reality in time to host the Lake view and KF teams in a playoff match. Babe Ruth For the second year In a row (he Klamath Falls Babe Ruth League played host lo one of Ihc biggest events In youth baseball a slate championship playoff the! yr ncmrc ine ir youngsters undid! bellied lo singe the hiRlily success-lli Isigeniar's Victory Top '59 Sport Story NEW YORK (UPI) - The tor rert of punches which Ingemar Johansson rained on Floyd Palter son lo will the world heavyweight title on a dripping night last June stood out today as the number one spoils story ot 19."i9. When Johansson unleashed the right hand he had chained to his side in training "because I do not wish lo hurt my sparring part ners" he knocked out Patter son, stunned 30,000 spectators and kayoed every other event o( the year as the top attraction. The top 10, as (ur as this corner is concerned, were: 1. Johansson knocks out Pat terson. 2. Los Angeles Dodgers win National League playoff ami World Series, 3. Baseball expan sion continues wjth formation of third league, 4. U.S.-RtiSMan track meet at Philadelphia, 5. New York Yankee collapse, 6. Tomy l.eo's Kentucky Derby victory, 7.

The Klamath Falls All-Stars, di rected by coach John Paxlon nailed ihe number three spot in the 1959 tourney, and the number one spot went to Mid-Columbia (The Dalles), team in its first year of com petition. The river club went on lo Canada but was dropped by the wayside. The year also marked the debut of a brand new Babe Ruth League so far the new league has only elected officers for 1960 but before Ihe season begins a full comple ment of South Suburban Babe Ruth League teams is expected to be torn ed. Chosen to head the new league vas Paul Barnes . . , the new boss of the Klamath Falls league is Cliff Nelson. The leagues this year have been warned that they may have to do without the services of Jack Kem niizer. area director one of the real pioneers of Babe Ruth ball- any kid ball for that matter. fa t ; RUBE JOHNSON ... Led the Kubs American Legion Coach Hi Hatfield led his Amer ican Legion organization through a lli-won, 9-lost season and a second place in league standings. The Legion nine, utilizing the cream of a crop of Ilabc Ruth giads, was led by pitclier-outNcld-er Blake Griggs, both ut Ihc plate and on the mound. Griggs rapped Ihc ball at a .453 clip and won seven games while being charged with only 3 losses. A new American Legion nine is in the offing a great probability it a newly (ormed committee has its way and it's almost a Cinch that they will. Led by Fred Lawson, an enter prising group has been formed to add al least one more Legion team to the local scene. The move ha been warmly received as a needed outlet for the great influx of good KF ballplayers moving up from wen-organized lower age group ranks. Golfing Last, but far from least, golf. a sport not necessarily limited to the youngsters, is rapidly moving to Ihe fore on Ihc local scene. Reames Country Club, under some fine leadership by pro Clark Good, took on a pair of big tourna ments Ibis year and was highly commended for the manner in which they were handled. "Boots" Porterfield. Grants Pass. won Ihe Oregon Professional Golf ers championship by defeating Har vey llixon in July. In August, in the second major event held at Reames, Portland's Turn Liljehom defeated Bob Prall n a sudden death extra hole play off lo win Ihe Oregon Golfers Medal l'lay tourney. Golfers from all over the stale participated in both events. Kingslcy Field's Sgt. Jim Roth grabbed off the club championship by defeating both Lt. Bill Gregory and Bob Hnrrahill. And just to make the year a sue c.'ss. Mae Good, the comely wife tne "club pro ippy hole-in-one dropped a :(Hi. and 10. Xealc Frascr's Davis Cup heroics as Australia regained the trophy. There were a number of other dramatic events, including the boxing scandals: Ron Delancy's 4:01.4 indoor mile mark; Don Campbell's am mile per hour wa ter record: Sam Snead's almost-a-rccord fictional 31-28 5!l; Don Rragg's indoor record vault of 15 f"tt. li'i inches, and a big grab of a second All-Star game. Johansson's punching pyrotech nics as he flattened Patterson seven times in one round was the year's shocker, although you can't take too much away from those Los Angeles Dodgers. Theirs was one continual story as they beat Milwaukee in a playoff for Ihc National League title and then went right into the series against the White Sox and won it in six games. BaM'ball's growing pains caused a continual furor capped by Branch Rickey's selection lo head the new third major wheel, tht Continental, with the playing target date set lor 1961.

Seen At KF School The past year was an outstand ing one for the Whitebirds of KUHS. The school wrestling pro gram, under the auspices of De- Lance Duncan, produced a state champion in the 191-pound class; Coach Dean White's Pelican bas ketball team was rated one of the top teams of the year and, but for two seconds, might have been state champions again in 1959. The tennis team under the di rection of Robert Johnson captured the state crown at Corvallis. Coach Jim Inglesby's track team showed definite improvement over previous years. The track program also had a record turnout. I Coach Dean White's baseball team, made up mostly of under classmen, won more than half the games and placed two boys on the Southern Oregon Conference all-star team. The football team under the supervision of Bob Wil liams, created a much needed in terest in the program and had one of the largest turnouts in recent years. All in all it's been a tre mendous year and everything looks better tor 60. The athletic program has re ceived the utmost support from the administration, faculty and lo cal townspeople. I would like to take this opportunity to convey my sincere appreciation for this tre mendous support. There have been times when they have assisted us in transporting our teams, and ac commodations while on trips and with material items that we were unable to purchase with school funds, banquets and many other things too numerous to mention. We are grateful. It would be humanly impossible COMPLETE Auto Painting SOondup Nothing Down -1 Year To Pay PaintiX!
