i wsmSk 'M-Stm Tangle With Canadian Entry At Kellogg Tuesday THE DALLES - The Klamath National All-Stars Sunday hard ly had time to think about their newly-acquired Oregon State Babe Ruth championship because they left The Dalles, the site of the state tournament, for Kellogg, Idaho, and the regional cham pionships. The Nationals will take on the Canadian team from British Co lumbia Tuesday night at 6 o'clock in the first round of the region al. Other teams in the regional are hosts Kellogg, the state nf Idaho team, Wyoming. Alaska, Washington, Montana and Klam ath and foe. Tile Nationals, All-Stars from the Klamath Basin Babe Ruth League, won the state champion ship Sunday afternoon by down ing a good Jefferson of Portalnd team, 5-3, for the slate tiara. It was the fourth straight, win in the state tournament for the Na tional All-Stars and the ninth in succession since they were formed prior to the District One Tournament in Klamath. The Nationals rode to the vic tory on the strong right arm of Bob Moore who won his second game in the state tourney. He beat Jefferson in the first round game, 7-6, after an amazing come back by the Nationals in the last inning. There was, however, none of that wailing around Sunday to come back to win. The Nationals jumped right off to gather four of their five runs in the second inning, an inning they seem to like for scoring. Moore went the entire route and gave up only five hits in winning. He walked only one baiter the whole game and struck out only four. He had some good backing, at times, .by the Nationals. Some errors, however, accounted for a part of the three runs scored by Jefferson. Moore got some fine hitting be hind him as the Nationals pound ed two Jefferson hurlers for 10 hits, some of them coming when most sorely needed. Coach Bob Moore said that he and the team were leaving The Dalles today to drive to Kellogg, Idaho.

"Basketball players today are bigger, better and faster than they ever were," says the six foot, five-inch former Princeton and New York Knicks star. "I'd have a tough time making any team in the pro league today."

"Dave Saks and Harold How ard i both coaches' were com ing back to Klamath but had hopes of joining us in Kellogg. We don't think too many of the parents will be coming. Mrs. Bob , Williams is escorting us to Kel logg and we hope to see many more there for support," Moore said. "We hope Dave can come back. He was on the 1937 Klam ath team that got to the finals pf the rcgionals," Moore said. Jciferson put a runner on base in the first inning on an error. Leadoff man Dean Duncan was safe on the error but Moore whiffed Bill Cherry. Scolty Fields forced Duncan on a fielder's choice and starting and losing pitcher Larry Hanson struck out. The Nationals were unable to threaten much in their half al though Mike McNery was safe on an error. The Jefferson side went down in order in the top of the second before the Nationals ex ploded for the four runs in the bottom of the inning. Alan Mezger was hit by a pitched ball to lead off and Bob Williams singled over the short stop's head for the first hit of the game. It took a big hop over the fielder's head for the hit. Greg Brosterhous struck out but Kim Badley stroked a Texas League single to fill the bases. Arie DeGroot, getting into his first state action, drilled a hard shot down the third base line which Denny Fuerstenaw errored on, allowing Mezger and Williams to race home with the first two runs. Rick Brosterhous singled over second base to load the bags once again. Badley scored the third run when a wild pitch was thrown by Hanson. McNery laced a single to chase DeGroot home. McNery was tossed out at. sec ond trying to go after the throw home. Moore struck out to end the frame. The big 4-0 lead looked good, hut Jefferson had other ideas. They opened up strong with Rob- But for a while he wondered whether the switch was smart. "I started doing the Knick games on radio," grins the man who has become one of the top sports television commentators. "One of my friends came to me and said he figured I must know what I was talking about but he couldn't understand me." Palmer next went on a chil dren's show, complete with bag gy pantaloons and turban, as 'iPalmo the Hindu Magician." "One of the worst moments came when he had a guy dressed up as a gorilla drop down among the kids," he recalls. "There we were on camera with kids screaming and running all over the place yelling 'I want my momma.' " Palmer tried his hand at any thing and everything, hockey, dog shows and horse shows. 'I got an odd-ball reputation," says the collar-ad guy whose fa ther was Lefty Flynn, once a well-k n o w n Hollywood actor. "Anytime they wanted someone for a show nobody else wanted, they d yell for 'Palmo. Rig Bud did his first golf at Baltusrol in 1956 when Ed Furgol won the U.S. Open and finds it one of the most satisfying, if dif ficult, of assignments. "That's because of the restrict ed areas you can cover with the cameras and time limits, he ex plained. "Then, too, everybody is a golf expert and, from various camera angles, sometimes get the wrong slant on what you're describing. A case in point was a totirna ment in which Palmer, as he us ually does on the green he cov ers, measured distances from the flag to the edge of the green. He was criticized for calling one putt 24 feet in length. "Okay," he challenged, meas- The putt was 23 feel. 10 inches. One of the most embarrassing moments for a television an nouncer, he says, comes when somebody he probably should know is shoved on camera and he can't remember the man's name. "And it can gel a little rough. too." he laughs, "when you're working off a telepromptor and it starts running backwards." But, all in all. Palmer is hap py in his newfound niche.

Allen Reihl was safe on Dave Ly man's error. Then came the turning point of the game. Dun can ground into a crucial dou ble play which allowed Lawrence to advance to third but kept two base runners off which would have eventually scored otherwise Duncan hit a shot to Lyman at short. He scooped to Rick Bros terhous for one and he relayed it to brother Greg for the second half of the twin-killing. But the inning wasn't over. Cherry sin gled over second to score Law rence with the first run. Fields flied lo right which Badley missed, allowing Cherry to score and Fields to go into third standing up. Hanson bashed an other Texas League single to chase Fields home with the third run. Ron Maloney lashed a sin gle to center to put runners on at second and third when Fuerste naw lined a shot down third base which McNery made a fine catch on to end the inning and the scoring for Jefferson. Ralph Kingsfather came on in relief qt Hanson in the bottom of the third. Dave Lyman prompt ly beat out an infield single and Mezger struck out. Williams was safe on a fielder's choice which cut Lyman down. Greg singled to right and Williams held at sec ond. Badley sliced a single to center and Williams didn't slow down until he crossed home plate with the fifth run. Jefferson was virtually hand cuffed after that although they left one baserunner stranded in every following inning but the sixth. They had two aboard in the seventh when Moore got Han son to pop up to Lyman to end the game. The Nationals have some big shoes to fill from last year.

Craig produced his own downfall with a damag ing error as ' the Milwaukee Braves edged the Mots, 2-1, and made the hard-luck New York pitcher a 20-game loser for the second year in a row.
