To each official, Post attorney Welborn Cody put this question: "Do you know the character o( Wallace Butts?" Each witness in his turn replied "Yes."

Saturday's other national mark was set by Kathy Ferguson of the Through it all, Butts, former head football coach and athletic director at Georgia, sat in stony silence, staring blankly at the witnesses. Occasionally he would blink his eyes. The Butts family1 wife and three grown daughters! sat behind the plaintiff. Butts had known these men for many years, and in the close cir cle of university life at Athens had been on intimate terms with some of them. Now they were all a federal courtroom, facing each other from the opposite sides of a lawsuit, with Butts' reputation as a respected mem ber of society and of the football coaching profession riding on the outcome. This was the scene as testimo ny drew to an end in the Butts libel suit trial that has stretched; over two weeks in the courtroom of federal Judge Lewis R. Mor gan. Monday, both sides will com-i plete their closing arguments, Morgan will deliver his charge and the drawn-out, bitterly fought case will go to the 12-man jury.

Bradshaw, who once plaved football under Determined Locals Arrive At Site By JERRY WAGGONER Herald and News Sports Editor The Klamath Basin Babe Ruth tram parked its bags and left for the Babe Ruth World Series Thursday morning. But there was more than clothes, gloves and shoes In those bags. The Klam ath group carried along with it dedication, desire, durability and determination. If those four words mean anything, the Oregon representative from the Klamath Rasin should come Jack with a world cham pionship in those bags along with the clothes, desire, dedication, durability and determination. The local crew, the smallest team (city-wise) in the tourna ment, carries the burden of being the Pacific Northwest Regional champion, and It hopes to bring back a title for the region. Portland's Madison made the finals last season but was beaten by a New Jersey team, 7-6. Klamath hopes to better that by one step. This Is a team which doesn't quit, as it demonstrated in (he Regional Tournament by bouncing off the deck of almost certain defeat three times in order to gain that title. Chamber of commerce president George Callison perhaps described it best by saying that they have omitted three words from their vocabulary, fear, fatigue and failure. Coach Rob Moore's team just doesn't think in terms of lose ing. We looked for signs to place on the sides of their vehicles when they left Klamath Falls Thursday. Moore explained that away by saying that "these kids are going strictly to play ball and to win. Thai's all they are thinking about." The teams also will be afforded some varied and interesting entertainment and trips while there. Governor Jack Campbell will speak tonight at the banquet and will also throw out the first hall. They will have an opportunity to hear and meet former New York Yankee pitching great, Lefty Gomez. Also, the BHL young sters will have Mrs. Babe Ruth, widow of the the home run king, as a guest. Other baseball personalities will be on deck for the 12th classic. During the off-hours of the series, fans and players will have an opportunity to visit the famous Aztec Ruins, Mesa Verde, where a culture existed and died before Columbus ever sailed. The 14 boys making the trip are Bob Moore Jr., Gob Williams, Greg and Rick Brosterhous, Dave Lyman, Mike MrNary, Arle DeGrool, Alan Mezger, Kim Badlry, Russ Smith, Mike Keck, Mike North, Steve Huettl and Ken Pound. The three roaches with the team are Bob Moore Sr., Dave Saks and Harold Howard. Since the Inception of this tournament back in 1952, the Babe Ruth program has been a breeding ground for major league ball players. Some of those now in pro ball who plaved in the series are Bob Savarine, Baltimore; John Edwards, Cincinnati; Dick Radatz, Red Sox; Al Downing, Yankees; Jim Maloncy, Cincinnati; Vada Pinson, Cincinnati; Art Mahaffey, Phillies; Dick LcMay, Cubs; Cletis Boyer, Yankees, and Carl Yastrezemskl, Red Sox, to name a few.

(UPI) Little Luis Rodriguez came on like a miniature battering ram Saturday night and scored a tech nical knockout over Denny Moyer at 1:39 of the ninth round in their nationally-televised bout. Moyer, former junior middle weight champion of the world, dropped after taking a hard right to the nose and got up at the count of five. But referee Billy Regan took one look at the glassy eyed boxer and stopped the fight. Rodriguez, 26-ycar-old former welterweight champion, was ahead all the way. He dropped Moyer about two minutes into the eighth round but the game Portland. Ore., fighter held on for the rest of the round. Rodriguez weighed in at 131'.i pounds and Moyer at 157!-j. After a dull opening round, Rod riguez of Miami Beach, Fla., start ed piling up the points with two- fisted barrages to the DreaaDas ket and the chin of Moyer. He rocked Mover in the third, with swift left and right blows to thej chin: in the fourth with two hard rights to tire cheek and in the fifth with a right to the chin and a barrage to the stomach. But Moyer was never in serious trouble until the eighth. Seconds after the opening bell, a whistling left opened up an n'.i cut on the right side of Mover's chin. Abandoning his usual flashy, dancing style, Rodriguez waded in like a slugger, throwing quick jacks and hooks with both hands. It was a hard right to the side of the head that felled Moyer in the eighth but he stood up at the count of two and took an eight count before resuming the light. Glassy-eyed, he hung on and Rod riguez pounded him until the bell sounded. k 1J T , "'"H t CHAMPIONS READY FOR t the Babe Kuth members TRAVEL as they Here are our waited to leave Tl I t r .... i k t k J I . , n , inursoay morning Tor rarmingron, in.m., and the oabe Ruth World Series.
