Matches anauw 4 SU in SI DTIfMllO BIRTHDAY! SEATTLE (AP) Second baseman Kurt Russell locked his hands around his knee and said he thought puffery about his making baseball's Hall of Fame and winning a movie Oscar "sounds a little presumptuous." It was soon clear that Russell, whose sixth Walt Disney picture, "Now You See Him, Now You Don't," opens in Seattle July 12, would rather be known for his baseball skills. "I want to get into the big leagues. I want to get in the Hall of Fame," said Russell, who was here with his Walla Walla, team for a Class A Northwest League baseball game with Seattle. As for the Oscar, the sandy-haired, 21-year-old who has been meshing acting and ball playing since he was 10, said he doesn't think he has a chance. "I'm not really interested," he said.

"Achieving awards in acting doesn't appeal to me. I don't know why. But achieving awards in baseball appeals to me a lot. "I'd love to win most valuable player in any league, or win the batting title or be the premier fielder in the league." Kurt won the world cham-pionship for quarter-midget racing when he was 8, then began concentrating on baseball. "I played Little League, Pony League, Senior Little League and five years of semipro ball," be said.

Russell signed with Hawaii of the Pacific Coast League in 1971 and was assigned to its farm club at Bend, Ore. He batted .285, topped the league in double plays and was named to the All-Star team. Bend dropped out and Hawaii switched its affiliation to Walla Walla this year. "My main interest right now," said Kurt, "is just getting to Hawaii just get there and hang on and, hopefully, have a couple of good years and then go (to the majors)." If he makes it, Kurt will be a pace ahead of his father, Bing, Whose footsteps he's been following. The elder Russell played five years of professional baseball but was side-wined by an errant pitch before he could make the major leagues, He has been acting for 20 years and now is in his 13th season as the sheriff on the Bonanza television series.

A desire to earn money for a bicycle combined with the need for a 10-vear-old in the movie "Safe at Home," starring Kurt's New York Yankee heroes Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris, turned him toward acting. He didn't get the part but de-. cided acting was easy and kept trying.1 Two weeks later Eddie Foy Jr. hired Russell for a bit part. "I earned about $110 and thought, 'This is I don't think I'm a very good actor but I have a good time," said Russell, whose first starring role was in Disney's "The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes," which earned $6 million at the box office.

Kurt's also done a number of television shows, including co-starring in the series "The Travels of Jamie -McPheeters." "They (his acting employers) didn't like me playing ball at first," Russell said. "Then they realized I was going to play. I don't think they even think about it anymore." Russell wants to combine his careers "the best I can and hope they don't cost me too much money because I like to make money." He makes $600 a month playing ball. What he's earned as an actor he doesn't know cause his father handled His finances prior to his 21st birthday March 17. "I was on a $50: a-week salary." Major league pay would be pretty satisfying to a guy who likes to make money.

But Kurt has no illusions about his baseball prowess. "I'm not a great ball player," he said. "I usually hit between .235 and .320 and turn in a pretty good double play. Those are my tools. "I'm not going to the big leagues and knock everybody dead.

But I think I could do my part." Kurt backs his ability with a winner's attitude. "I think everyone should have tremendous competitive instincts," he said. "I'm not a good loser. I don't think you should be. You have to accept losing but I think it's more important to be a good winner." CELEBRATE BY DIUII1G OUT AT HIE WAYSIDE BREAKFAST LUNCH DINNER LUNCH BUFFET AMSTERDAM (AP) The president of the World Chess Federation has threatened American champion Bobby Fischer with blacklisting following reports he is holding out for a cut of the gate receipts from his World Series with Boris Spassky of Russia.

Dr. Max Euwe, the world federation president and veteran Dutch grandmaster, said Thursday night that if the 29-year-old American fails to appear Sunday for the start of the world chess championship in Reykjavik, Iceland, he stands to lose his rights to play for the world title "not only this time but perhaps forever." Fischer was seen Thursday night at New York's Kennedy airport, but Icelandic Airlines said he did not board its flight to Reykjavik. When newsmen tried to question him, his bodyguards fended them off. The next flight from New York to Iceland is tonight. But Fischer in the past has refused to fly on the Jewish Sabbath, between sundown Friday and sundown Saturday.

Informed sources in Reykjavik said that Fischer informed the Icelandic Chess Federation that he wouldn't play unless he got 30 per cent of the gate receipts. This would be in addition to his share of the $125,000 purse and 30 per cent of the receipts from the sales of television and film rights already agreed to. The Icelandic federation was reported seeking a compromise in negotiations with Fred Cramer, former president of the American Chess Federation, who is acting as Fischer's advance Icelanders said they have already spent about S200'000 on preparations, and if they meet Fis 1 FAMILY DINING GOOD COFFEE AMPLE PARKING FAST SERVICE Scores League Standings mm Rookie American League Bonanza Motor 12, Burley Elks 7 Spencer's INK 7, Lynch Oil 5 Western Auto 10, Cassia National 10 Today' Baseball By The ASSOCIATED PRESS 1 American League EAST National league EAST Pittsburg 40 24 New York 40 26 .625 .606 .554 .500 .439 1 4Vj 8 12 Chicago 36 33 St. Louis 33 33 Montreal 29 37 Experience Will Tell Philadelphia 24 41 .369 I6V2 6 3 3 1 1 1 Team Bonanza Motor Burley Elks Lodge Spencer's INK Western Auto Cassia Nat'l Bank Lynch Oil WEST Cincinnati 41 Detroit 36 27 .57 Baltimore 34 29 .540 2 Boston 27 34 .443 8 New York 27 34 .433 8 Cleveland 27 35 .435 8V2 Milwaukee 26 37 .413 10 WEST Oakland 43 22 .662 Chicago 38 27 .585 5 Minnesota 34 29 .540 7 Kansas City 31 32 .492 11 California 31 36 .463 13 Texas 26 38 .406 16 Houston 41 Junction 24 and Interstate 80N 26 .612 27 .603 31 .537 5 36 .455 lOVi 46 .370 17 He Los Angeles 36 Atlanta 30 San Fran 27 San Diego 23 ley in the second heat and Bob Richards and JXAMES Dare clocked 8:38.6 in the first heat as 12 men made it into the finals.

(AP) Veterans Bob Price and Mike Man-ley disagree as to what type of race it'll be, but both feel their experience will tell in Sunday's finals of the 3,000 steeplechase at the U.S.

men's Olympic Track and Field Trials. "It'll take 8:25 to win Sunday," said Manley, 30-year-old school teacher from Eugene, said after winning a heat in 8:34.8 Thursday. "Oh, I don't know about 8:25," said Price. "That can record is pretty good." Sid Sink's American mark of 8:26.4 set here a year ago in the AAU championships is the mark Manley says will go. He was second to Sink in that race a year ago.

in 8:27.6, and says the poly-urethane track here is "one of the fastest you'll find anywhere." But Price noted that the runners this year have to go in the prelims and then the finals. "This is like running back-to-back." said Price, who competes for Athletes in Action. "To run real fast, you have to be Iresh and this was a relatively hard semi."

Two Main Problems 9n America To Solve Are Work And Leisure fishing, hunting, camping and providing the access to public swimming, to name a few.

It is iands and waters that can obvious that fishing, hunting, provide the recreation, and (2) and the noncortsumptive uses of to provide the necessary habitat wildlife are as broad, or for endangered big game herds broader, a base for outdoor 0r other wildlife populations. community. One of "the most interesting and perhaps the most outstanding practices on wildlife lands that has been developed in recent years is the land-use VllcAN'THAVESHAPEi -1- MM TJL Hil it if trades that have been com All" of the lands purchased by pleted with major livestock owners. Here, livestock grazing is permitted on portions of Wildlife Management Areas in exchange for deferred or reduced livestock use of highly critical but privately controlled big game ranges. This cooperative approach to a common problem has increased the amount of shrubs, forbs and grasses available to sage grouse and sharptail grouse, as well as elk.

With the multiple use approach to federal land management that allows the liighest and best use for each segment of the public domain, with acquisition and development of certain key lands for the public and for wildlife, and with the cooperation shown by many other land users in Idaho, there is a chance just a chance that future generations will enjoy some semblance of the hunting and Fishing opportunities Idaho now provides. Is there a better gift? recreation as, say, swimming, camping, picnicking, etc. Nature walks and study, wildlife photography, wildlife viewing and similar recreation occur with increasing frequency on' lands once considered primarily as key wildlife habitat and public hunting areas. Most of Idaho's big game hunting and a large part of the fishing is now done on public lands and waters. The Fish and Game Department controls some 130.000 acres specifically for wildlife, including three big game ranges, eight public game bird and waterfowl shooting areas and over 130 water access units.

More is needed. Several mule deer and elk herds are in serious danger because their comparatively small critical winter ranges are becoming even smaller due to the construction of highways and reservoirs, urban sprawl and land overuse. Posting and draining has reduced the places shotgunners can ply their sport. The most obvious way out of the predicament is to acquire more key lands and to develop them and the ones already owned to carry more animals and fish. The department's land management policy rests on two main points.

These are (1) to give hunters and fishermen an opportunity 'participate in their chosen sport by providing places to hunt and fish, or by the department specifically for wildlife were paid for by the hunters and fishermen, from license monies and from federal excise taxes on arms, ammunition and fishing tackle. Acquisition through purchase, lease or agreement is the first step toward the department's goals. Most Idaho laws favor the acquisition of lands and waters for fish and wildlife and the hunting and fishing public. Some laws need changing. Sometimes it is necessary to buy an entire small ranch or farm just to get the access rights to a stream.

When this is done, the lands surplus to the recreation needs are sold, thus returning them to the tax roles and to the agricultural economy of the community. Occasionally an acquisition and development project doesn't provide the recreation that the original planners supposed. In such cases, all of the land is sold. Acquisition for wildlife isn't all bad for the nonhunters. Several thousand -animal months of grazing a year are permitted on fish and game lands.

Many acres of agricultural lands are farmed by sharecrop agreements; with the state share of any food crops left in the fields for wildlife. Each acquisition and development seems to attract more sportsmen and tourists with their dollars to that JIMIIL'MBIRD Department There are two main problems to be solved in this land of ours, this America. One of them is work and the other is leisure. Both of them are necessary, though really two sides of the same coin. Of the two, leisure is by far the more important.

Webster says that recreation is "refreshment of strength and spirits after toil diversion." His key words are "after toil" and this places "recreation" as the antonym or opposite of "work." Some dedicated men do put in 10 to 12 hours of work a day and find it difficult to take time off for vacations and might well know the answers to many of llie problems that appear to be developing in the use of leisure time. Of course, the real problem is the failure of society to provide a smooth transition from work values to leisure values. Traditionally in American society, work has provided the central focus of the value system. Certainly this makes it most difficult to develop a leisure-centered value system, it to find meaningful roles in leisure-time activities. Values largely are determined by institutions, especially schools, churches and governmental agei.cies.

But the big problem remains the conversion of leisure time into an asset instead of a liability. fit is quite evident that in-Aistrial workers, at least, have vacation time and are getting toore of. it. The past 100 years, for example, the average workweek in industry has dropped from 72 hours to less than 40 hours per week. The number of vacation weeks has grown from million to 100 million in the past 30 years or so.

Some labor unions even have negotiated sabbatical leaves for senior workers. Automation has tfiminated production line jobs, Shortened the work week, in- eased vacations and forced rlier retirement. Those rdest hit are the ones with the east education and consequent inability to cope with leisure. Much of Idaho is already in the public domain and available to help meet the needs for outdoor recreation, including MUTT ond JEFF JEFF; COMING E'S A HA IT is A 1 STRAIGHT GONNA a I whale; Vj BUZ SAWYER A ptAUTY WWW, 'swTvtH fOA VP HOT A TtU ME ioULP BE ONLY Y77W not i have an vU IJLC 1 1 7Snv ai A OH, TOM, 1 PIPNT PRE AM VOU I fl ANP 1 D0WT 1 I WEU.
