SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1DG4 ALTON EVENING TELEGRAPH I'AGE B-3 Looks Like Russia All the Way INNSBRUCK, Austria (AP)The United States won its first medal of the ninth Winter Olympics Saturday A third-place bronze for Jean Saubert of Lakeview, in the women's slalom ski there were anxious moments while a jury deliberated on whether Miss Saubert had missed a gate on her second run. Finally, the. jury said there was no violation, decreeing the medal was Miss Saubert's. The Russians, meanwhile, boosted their medal production to 12 as the sensational Lidia Skoblikova won her third speed skating title in as many days and Claudia Boyarskikh led a 1-2-3 Soviet sweep in the women's 10-kilometer ski race. Miss Sabuert, 21-year-old Oregon State co-ed, had the third best time for two runs down the flag-dotted Lizum Valley course, finishing behind a pair of French sisters, Christine and Marielle Goitschel.

But gate guards reported the American girl had missed one of the 56 gates on the upper reaches of the course, and this threw a cloud over the Americans' jubilation. Amos Little, U.S. delegate to the International Ski Federation, demanded a review of the films and, about an hour after the race, he emerged from a meeting of the jury with the report: "Miss Saubert is definitely in. A review of the control film by the judges definitely proved she passed the gate in proper fashion." Mrs. Skoblikova, a dimpled 24-year-old Siberian schoolteacher, won her third speed skating championship with a victory in the 1,000 meters.

Another teacher, Claudia Boyar- skikh, led a 1-2-3 Soviet sweep in the 10-kilometer ski race, giving the Russians a whopping total of 12 medals in all. The Russians, dominating these Games as no country has in the past, have five gold medals, three silver and four bronze. Finland has four medals including -the two gold, for the second best showing. The United States had been blanked until Miss Saubert's fine performance in the women's slalom. A pair of darkhorse Briton 5, Tony Nash and Hobin Dixon, broke the Italian monopoly in the two-man bobsled races on the icy Igls chute, with the U.S.

crews finishing fifth and seventh. Two pink-cheeked daughters of a French Alpine inn keeper, Christine Goitschel, 19, and Marielle, 18, made Olympic history by sweeping the first two places in the women's first time sisters ever finished one- two. Christine won with two flashing runs down Lizum Valley courses spinning in and out of the 50-odd gates, for a combined time of 1 minute, 29.86 seconds. Marielle followed with 1:30.77. Miss Saubert's time was 1:31.36.

The Oregon State co-ed went wide on the first run and had a disappointing clocking of 44.78 seconds. She dashed down the hillside hell-bent-for leather on her second try, over the more difficult course, registering 46.58. Flipping her yellow goggles to the top of her head, Miss Saubert beamed broadly: "It felt good," sha said. "Was it good enough for a medal?" Told she had won a bronze, the Oregon girl broke into a wide grin and said: "That's wonderful, wonderful. I wish it could have been another color but it is wonderful to win the first medal for America, just the same." The other three US.

entrants of Bishop, Ferries Houghton, and Joan Han nan of Franconia, N.H. fin ished out of the running. Nash and Dixon won the two- man bobsled championship with a total time of 4 minutes, 21.90 seconds for four runs down the twisting, chute at Igls. Larry McKillip of Saranac Lake, N.Y., with James Lamy of Lake Placid, N.Y., as brake man, grabbed fifth place with 4:24.60. The other U.S.

sled, piloted by little Charley McDonald of Malone, N.Y., with Charles Pandolph of Saranac Lake at the brake, finished seventh in 4:25.00. Janice Smith of Rochester, Meyers Barbara Ripples and Outdoors With Harold Brand Took Ten Snappers Snapper turtles do not necessarily bury themselves in the mud to hibernate all winter. They may be seen in shallow water under clear ice along the shoreline of farm ponds. The turtles will even obligingly wait for a person to chop a hole in the ice so they can be caught, reported Harvey Calame, 108 Gerson Ave. Last Wednesday morning, Curtis Oulson, Airport Road, Godfrey, visited a few farm ponds and took three snapper turtles that weighed about 20 pounds.

He showed them to Calame and invited him to turtle hunt that same day. The men visited four farm ponds of about two to three acres in size in the Chesterfield area and within hours from the time they left Alton, they were back with seven more snappers that weighed about 40 pounds all together. Moved Slowly "The turtles were in a state of hibernation as they moved very little "Calame said. "It was no problem to chip a hole in the ice and grab them. Of course it is a chilly job.

Snapping turtles are vicious and will attack. Last summer we watched from shore as Elmer Rose of Pleasant Hill emptied a loop net of fish also containing two large snappers. After dump- ng the turtles into his skiff, the snappers continually attempted to attack Rose. It was all Rose could do to keep them off with an oar until he finally grabbed by the tail and placed them in a gunny sack. Froze Fish for Winter A.
