Letters to the Editor MORE POINTS?

Stork , While discussing the Rose Bowl with

some fellow flyers from the Northwest, the question came up, "Why isn't there a way for us poor unfortunates who can't afford to go to enough National Series meets to get points toward an invitation?" We had the idea that since all state tournaments are I .F. A. sanctioned, why not either give points for the overall winners of state meets or g ive an automatic seat to the winners. I mean, that is quite an accomplishment in itself . Also, quite a few o f the state overall champs will also have enough points from NAS meets that the amount of seats to WFC won't be increased to overflow yet there will be a greater amount of unknown but excel lent disc players in the competition .

Tell me what you think . Maybe we can get some reaction about this idea from other players .

Don Fogle Tacoma, Washington

Don , Each year we spend a great deal of time reth inking and sometimes

rework ing the qual if ications system for WFC. This year is no exception . The pressure of more and more quality candidates for the meets grows constantly as greater numbers of talented people become serious players.

In the past, I have held to the North American Series meets as the sole qualification standard for United States players and wi ll probably continue that policy this year for two main reasons:

-The quality of the state meets varies quite widely in terms of both organizational support and competition. Thus the results are difficult to compare fairl y.

- Point mania is c razy enough at the National level and I like to protect the state meet from the pressures. I see the state meet as the perfect opportunity for the regional or local player to gain confidence and experience without facing the "big guns" or worrying about THE POINTS.

I believe most quality players who are serious about international level play can qualify for WFC with a reasonable amount of travel to the NAS meets in their region. Let's keep the smaller events special in their own way without the points and pressure.

WHAT'S UP WITH THE ULTIMATE By Tom Kennedy

The formation of the Ultimate Players' Association has taken place. In order for this organization to succeed , we need your help.

The sport of Ultimate was first introduced in 1968. Since that time, various organizational efforts have contributed to the sport's steady growth. Presently we are undergoing further organizational refinement. To that end, the U.P.A. has been founded .

The U.P.A.'s main functions will be to coordinate all Ultimate activities and to disseminate information. These activities will be carried out through a national structure . Below are listed the coord inators for the five regions:

NORTHEAST Buz Laughlin (617) 926-8660 36 Oliver Street Watertown , Massachusetts 02172

MIDDLE ATLANTIC Andrea Cummis (412) 683-9811 5231 5th Ave. #3 Pittsburgh , PA 15232

4 Fnsbee d1sc World, Sept./Oct. 1979

SOUTH Ross Snyder (404)458-1875 3510 Blair Circle , Apt. E Atlanta, Georg ia 30319

CENTRAL Bruce Johnson (31 3) 663-3616 (home)

or (313) 995-1 717 (work ) 720 S. Main Ann Arbor, Michigan 48104 WEST Tom Kennedy (805) 964-0458 P.O. Box 4345 Santa Barbara, CA 93103

Each regional coordinator will subdivide his or her respective reg ion into sections and designate secti onal directors. These sectional d irectors will coordinate league play within their sections and be responsible for keeping the regional coordinator informed .

Each team will be responsible for designating one person as team spokesperson . This spokesperson wi ll

be responsible for communicating information to and from his or her team back to the sectional or reg ional coord inator. Player support w ill be essential to the success of this system. We have the rare opportunity to be the ones to take responsibility for d irect ing our sport's destiny. Phone ca lls or letters to the regional coordinators and sectional directors are encouraged on all levels- Ultimate rules, UPA structure, etc. This is really the only way we can honestly call it a "players' association". Notification of address changes are especially important. Members will receive a bi-month ly Ultimate newsletter starting in April of 1980 and continu ing through November, plus a yearly international d irectory listing all known teams. In addition, U.P.A. unpigmented 165's wi ll be made available at a reduced rate to all members.

Following is the most current listing of teams and spokespersons available. If any of th is information is not current or incorrect, please contact your reg ional coordinator immediately. As new information comes in, periodic new listings will be published.

Let's do it for us!

1979 Wotld Ftisbee disc Championships by Stork

There are a number of reasonable ways to deal with the concept of a world championship . An obvious implication is that the champion does something better than anyone else on the planet-a pretty heavy assumption. The title also carries a date, implying at least a year's duration of this global supremacy before it requires renewal or release.

The practical import of a world title , of course, is considerably less imposing. Tom Monroe is the 1979 World Self-Caught Flight Champion, but he will enter his next MT A event with the same fears of no wind or no catch shared by all the rest of us. He may carry with him a bit more confidence in future events but it will probably be balanced by the pressure to produce world championship quality resu lts.

So ... do the titles mean nothing at all? On the contrary. I think they

THE OVERALL CHAMPIONS

8 Frisbee disc World , Sept./Oct. 1979

are important and valuable both for the player and the sport. A championship title at WFC represents unexcelled perform­ance against many other talented players who have aimed to produce their best possible effort at the same time. The winning is significant in direct proportion to the amount of energy, skill and dedication to excellence that all the contending players have invested over the course of the year.

To win in the face of this investment by other players who compete at WFC is an achieve­ment of considerable magnitude. Necessarily few of us will ever be able to savor the sweetness of that achievement, making it even more delectable for the fortunate.

The annual championships have an even more significant import fo·r the sport in that they represent milestones of our development. They freeze our progress at

annual instants which , when assembled chronologically, represent the movement of state­of-the-art play. Being able to review those instants of excel­lence provides perspective. When lrv Kalb and I won the 1975 World Freesty le Pairs title , we knew everyone on earth who could tip and everyone who even knew about the delay. Films show that our play in '75 has been relegated to primitive art by the explosion of techn ique and talent that fol lowed us. That first World Freestyle Championship, however, repre­sented the cu lmination of over twenty four years of painstakingly slow discovery and development. Each championship performance since then has bui lt on all of the rest, w ith each remaining magnifi­cent in its triumph and this year's victories shine most brightly in the company of those that preceded them .

Open: It's enough to make you think a player has to be in high school to

win the championship . Scott Zimmerman, who has returned to Mclean High School for h is sen ior year, made it twice in a row that youth has triumphed. It wou ldn't be d ifficult to accept a single open World Championsh ip for someone his age, but to have mastered the multi-faceted components of five events in such a short t ime is amazing . Both Krae and Scott won with ba lanced performances in all of the events rather than a few very strong finishes. Scott 's winning margin of 26.5 points over John Kirk land (the o ld guys do hang in there) was remarkable. Will they really understand back at Mclean High?

Women: Teresa Gaman slipped up on the early favorites before they even

saw her coming. The early and somewhat unexpected DOC win for Teresa and Cyndi Birch gave her the in it ial surge she needed but strong third places in golf , d istance and self-caught fl ight helped her pile up an unprecedented winning marg in. Never underestimate the power of a freckle.

Master: You say you like upsets?

~ -.,

Cinderel la rea lly h it home with you? We ll, Palmeri did it in the Master's d ivision. Jim was not on top of anyone's Master's list but his own. Over the past years, th is guy has been quietly getting GOOD. He takes the tit le in four events and tops it with a world record throw in d istance. It's enough to g ive you faith . Johnny Roberts

THE EVENTS

Scott Zimmerman

Teresa Gaman

Grand Master: Al l th ings cons idered, this race

was probably the most exci t ing with several guys stil l having a shot pretty late in the going. Johnny Roberts is a tough man to beat though and on the st rength of two firsts and two seconds, he pu lled the first repeat ever in grand master competit ion.

Distance

Distance has always been one of the most hotly contested events in competitive play. It was in fact, the first field event competition, joining Guts at the 1971 I.F.T . The appeal of the event is simple- everyone can relate to the question at hand­" How far can you throw it?" The history of the event has been one of domination by a few players with Monika Lou controlling the women's title for an amazing period of four years. Well­established names have also held the open title- until now.

Tim Carmel 's rise to prominence in distance has been extremely fast, coming mainly over the past season. His con­vincing win over an extremely strong field in SCF at Dallas was the first indication, followed quickly by two more national wins. It took a Rose Bowl record effort from Tim in the final to end Joseph Youngman's two-year hold on the title.

Since Monika's absence at WFC, the women's distance title has been a bit more available, going to Laura Engel to sew up her overall title last year and to Michele Marini as a companion for her world golf title this year.

The Master division in distance provided probably the single most impressive (Beamonesque?) effort of the meet in Jim Pal­meri 's world record throw of 104.9 meters. Pretty amazing.

The Grand Masters have their own distance dynasty going in the record of Roy Pledger. Roy now has won all the WFC dis­tance events he has entered (indoor and outdoor) over the last two years and has a brace of world records also.

Golf Golf is a difficult event to dominate. There are so many delicately

balanced factors that combine to produce strong play that one weekend 's all-conquering hero can be the next meet's stumbling non-qualifier (well , practically) . Reflective of this variability is the fact that Johnny Roberts is the only player in any division to repeat as World Golf Champion. Tom Kennedy provided the WFC with its first real upset win in '75 as he (then relatively unknown nationally) shocked the big boys by whipping them at Oak Grove. Later he did have a few other wins to show it wasn't a complete fluke. Although all the subsequent winners were well-established players, severa l extremely good golfers have never been able to quite put it together for WFC.

Snapper Pierson is relatively new but his successes in golf have quickly made him a favorite in any field . Except for his putting , no single component of Snapper's game is truly exceptional. It is the consistent combination of strength in each component that pro­duces the exceptional results. On an extremely challenging UCI course , Snapper led a star-laden field through 54 holes and then finally dropped Ken Westerfield in a "sudden money" play-off. Let's be realistic - nobody dies.

Michele Marini produced a mild upset in the women's contest, besting the favored Cynthia Allen by five throws over 27 holes. Michele's score was better than that of forty players in the Open division.

Again in Master Golf, Palmeri produced an exciting finish nipping the strong golf game of Ron Widel by one throw on an extra hole. This guy was unconscious!

Joh nny Roberts kept a firm hold on his golfing supremacy although Jack Roddick was within two throws with eight holes to play. In the end, Johnny was cruising away with a nine-toss lead.

Self-Caught Flight:

Self Caught Flight

Another unpredic table event. The SCF format for '79 has made consistency an important factor with the player required to produce both a good MTA and TR&C but it is still one of the most volati le disciplines. The meet was graced with strong, pre­dictable winds at Irvine th is year and they were reflected in the general high quality of the results.

Tom Monroe has been strong in these events for a long time but he fina lly put them together at the ri~ht moment to take the first World Self-Caught Flight world title. The final pool inc luded Bob Reeve , whose world title both Monroe and Bill Gordon of Kansas had bettered in the preliminaries. Also throwing was the reign ing TR&C champ, Joseph Youngman . In the face of this cha llenge, Tom put together a 12.03 second MTA and a 78.2 meter TR&C for a double win and the title.

Tita Ugalde has a power throw that defies all the theories. It just can't go far- but it does. Mainly on the strength of her TR&C mark, Tita edged Cynthia Allen , preventing a Frisbee® disc South double in the event.

The big news here was that Palmeri d idn 't win! In fact, he fell to a much more reasonable fourth place as strong man Steve Oberkirch swept both sides of the event. Steve's MT A was a Master world record throw of 10.93 seconds on the fina l attempt with no catches yet made.

Mr. Power, Roy Pledger had to set a new world TR&C mark to lock up this title . He broke the45.73 meter record set by Jack Roddi ck only seconds earlier. Roy's 9.62 second MTA was also a world record for the d ivision- a hard pair to match .

Double Disc Court:

Double Disc Court This Open was unquestionably

the deepest and most talented f ield in the history of the event. There were at least a dozen teams who could easily have made the semi-finals but there was only room for four. The Duvall/ Duvall vs. Bonopane/ Brennerand Geare/ Mcl ean vs. MoldVO'Dell semi-final games were exception­al ly well matched and the play reflected the strateg ic advances that have been made over the course of the year. Geare/ Mclean and Duva ll/ Duval l moved to the final , each in three-game matches. Charlie and Harold Duvall cou ld never get started again against their old Lacy Park rivals, Steve Mclean and Gerry Geare who shut them out in three straight.

The California combination of Teresa Gaman and Cynd i Birch had never competed together in DOC but they worked out their systems quickly enough to knock off several more established pairs. The upset set the tone for Ter­esa's week.

Freestyle:

'77

Jim Palmeri is credited with the invention of DOC back in 1970 and he brought his long expe­rience with the game into play by outscoring the o ther Masters in a round-robin format.

Ralph Williamson staged a last minute comeback in the DOC to unseat the favored World Cham­pion Jack Roddick who lost the title in the last of the fifteen-game series.

Freestyle An injury to John Dwork threw

a brief confusion into the predic­tions for the Open freestyle but the addition of his partner, Jeff Felberbaum, to the Joey Hudok­lin/ Don Rhodes pair produced an awesome pool of talent that added yet another favorite to an already packed field . The semi­final round of sixteen groups included at least seven that could have won the world title without great surprise. Scott Zimmerman and Eric Wooten won that round and moved into the Rose Bowl final with Dave Marini/ John Jewell , the Velasquez Brothers, Evan David/ Corey Basso and the Hudoklin/ Rhodes/ Felberbaum triple . It was all mental at that point. Every one of the teams had more than enough skill and talent to win convincingly. The three­some had it together and the result was a solid win over the other four who didn' t quite hit their potential.

Accuracy (For History Buffs)

14 Fnsbee disc World, Sept./Oct. 1979

Suzanne Strait and Jane Engel­hardt made it a big Eastern dou­ble in freestyle by taking the women's title from g. rose and Laura Engel. The technical preci­sion and control of women 's play this year lends a good deal of support to the contention that women will win Open freestyle titles at future WFC's.

In the Master division, it was Palmeri again.

Johnny Roberts finally broke Ralph Williamson 's three-year reign in Grand Master freestyle . Now Ralph has a challenge again- look out in '79 Johnny.

Canine: Ashley had lost out to Chablis

in the California regionals so he never got to go muzzle to muzzle with Dink. Dink and his owner, Jim Strickler took the opportu­nity, however, to show that last year was no fluke and won over the field again .

Foreign: Fourteen nations were repre­

sented this year making the event a true world meet. The numbers, however, were not the big news­it was the performances. Many foreign players moved into the semi-finals with very respectable efforts. Micke Hjartsjo of Sweden finished 21st in the strong golf field and Koki Shichinoke of Japan emerged as a strong over­all threat , scoring well in all events. Another well-known Swede, Anders Svensson placed 47th overall, making him the highest ranked foreign player.

Japan annexed the Interna­tional title by edging the strong Swedish team. Both teams sur­passed the previously dominant Canadian contingent.

THE SITE The University of California at

Irvine is a disc player's dream. Cool ocean breezes sweep large fields that are flat as a table top and covered with a short, grassy carpet. The golf course is undulat­ing and beautiful with eucalyptus trees shading the fairways and lush ivy guarding the greens. The food and housing services of the University were extremely good , providing a comfortable home for the players and staff. Crowds were good at the preliminaries as Southern California is becoming increasingly aware of disc play through local golf courses and regional tournaments.

The finals in the Rose Bowl were blessed by a less-than­scorching day and an enthusiastic crowd. Sponsorship by Wham-0, Hi-C drinks, Cycle Dog Food and local publicity support by K­WEST, an L.A. rock station, also helped make the day a success.

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS The trading and sales of collec­

tor's items was unprecedented. John Kirkland brought in an auc­tioneer to sell some of his trading stock and the bidding was fur­ious. At least one item (a black­stamped purple Pro) went for over $100. Trading was heavy every evening in all of the dorm lobbies.

Paul Thompson hosted a popu­lar slide show on his recent disc tour of India and many players sat through the WFC film marathon of the '75, '76, '77 and '78 films. Numerous special interest groups such as the Freestyle Players' Association and FLOW met dur­ing the week. The seniors turned the women's letters around and formed their association under the title W.O.L.F. The meaning of the title is available by joining the group.

The Sunday night party at Don Vito's featured a disco lesson by Erwin Velasquez and some drink­ing lessons by the Swedes. They introduced a new game that was a bit hard to understand but fun after the first few tries. They called it ARVAND for some reason .

EUROPEAN FLIGHTS By~~

- <a l {

Thi s summer was the beginning of large-sca le player exchanges with Europe. More Europeans entered the World Championships than ever before. The 1979 Disc Covering the World International Friendship Tour coincided with tournaments and play in London, Belgium and Amsterdam. American professiona ls covered the European continent with demonstrations, clinics and interviews for the press.

I hope that these thoughts give you an insight into the growing, and very friendly, European scene. Plans for tours in 1980 are already underway. Look for articles and information in the upcoming issues of FrisbeertJ disc World.

Harvey Brandt, noted FdW photographer and winner of the 1978 photo contest, was travelling with the Friendship Tour and is happy to present a small part of his European photos for this essay.

JFK AIRPORT, NEW YORK (June 20, 1979) Onboard on eastbound 747. A familiar tingle of excitement like the release of a great self caught flight. A lot of advance planning goes into these trips but it's always worth the work.

GOTEBORG, SWEDEN (June 21 , Midsummers' Weekend) A national celebration in the land of the Midnight Sun. Disc play grows quickly in one year. Jens. Erwin, Cyndi and Michele were here on pro-tour for several weeks . The teaching and freestyle influence is obvious. An Engl ish team came up to Sweden in the spring for head-to-head European competition. There is a disc club down the coast called the " Flying Flamingoes!"

There are always a certain number of knock­offs floating around .

The Youth Hostel (Offic ial Disc Sanctuary) here has welcomed over four thousand people in the past year. For many, it is a first-t ime exposure to flying discs. For players like me, it has become a place of pilgrimage. Cracked d iscs are beginn ing to really cover the d ining room walls and new discs are always available to travellers from behind the bar. Everything is set here for two days with the International Friendship Tour so I'm off to London to p ick up the group.

LONDON, ENGLAND (July 9) Foreign languages are fun but it's nice to be back on English speaking ground . International Friendship Tourists aren't due in for several days, so we spend the week jamming in Hyde Park and doing ground work for the tournament. Eight countries have reg istered over 150 competitors for freestyle, DOC, self caught fl ight, distance and UK National Ul timate Cup. It's going to be a busy weekend .

LONDON, ENGLAND (July 13) Everyone is in- and jet-l agged . Tournament starts early tomorrow but we're too busy sharing Series meet updates to get sleep. Being a tour director for this group is fun but includes a healthy dose of hassles, concerns and jitters. Reminiscent of runn ing that first big tournament. Tita has already qualified for the Bowl. Charlie and Harvey are looking for Rochester to connect. Engel and Emerson are here on pro-tour. It's nice to see fami liar faces.

RICHMOND ATHLETIC GROUNDS (July 14, 15) The First European and 7th UK National Championships. International distribution here is striking. Germans in the self caught fl ight finals, Swedes in distance, freestyle and DOC, France, Holland , Austria and Ireland are all represented , some crossing several borders to compete for the fi rst t ime. Jacques and Michel take the DOC Crown for Belgium with careful playing and deadly upside-down burns. American competitors make the cuts but not without a serious struggle on the way up. Derek took his second UK National Overall , and the Rose Bowl invitation and Craig Hunter stopped in to take the European title and a tan. The weather was hot and clear on both days. It's nice to have a Coppertone sponsor.

DOVER, ENGLAND (July 20) Leaving the white cl iffs beh ind and spinning on this 'beeworthy craft to a continental welcome. London was good to us with characteristic charm, wrong­side-of-the-road driving , theater and unchar­acteristically good weather. Thank you!

BELGIAN COUNTRYSIDE (July 22) A demo by the seaside, Belgian pastry waffles that blew our minds (we each had three). the Grand Place with 16th century architecture complete, the Manni ken Pis for unforgettable laughs and French spoken rapidly just to keep you on your toes.

BRUSSELS, BELGIUM (July 23) Well , the Belg ians do know how to party. Half the national Frisbee® disc Association showed up to celebrate the summer with a veggie spread eight tables long, moonlighter Min i-Guts under ultra-vi olet lamps, midnight fireworks and lots of dancing. It's great to get together with old friends and to meet more new friends every year.

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS (July 25) Heinekens, Ultimate with new association members in Vondel Park (they're got the spirit!), red lights, funny films and miles of beautifu l canals. Amsterdam has a spec ial attraction for tourists, hard to put your finger on but we all feel the buzz.

DUISBURG, WEST GERMANY (July 26) Last night was our final evening together. Good friendships forming over two weeks of group travel and play. A meeting here in Germany with the Frisbee disc licensee to plan events for 1980 and 1981. Yes, things are growing surely and well in Europe.

Ron and Mayor of Namur- presentation of Namur Cup

NAMUR, BELGIUM (July 28, 29) The first Ultimate Challenge in Namur. Teams from England, Belgium , France, Italy and a motley crew representing the United States. The spirit of play is paramount, everyone working to build the feeling of sport, sharing and clean cooperation. Cheering for your opponents incredible offensive/ defensive move is a natural expression of dedication to the disc and respect for one another. Next year's Ultimate Challenge is slated to occur during the 1980 International Friendship Tour. Don't miss it .

MILAN, ITALY (August 1) A quick stop at 1 ' ltalia to help the young Frisbee® disc Association get on their feet. Good play and communication already going between the Italian cities. "Milano vs. Firenze Ultimata" has just got to be hot! Last year was the big production boom in Italian flying discs. Now the boom has gone bust and only the best of three hundred odd molds have survived . The Italians, like all of the European players, are excited to contribute as active members of an international flying family. We all extend a warmest welcome!

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS (August 4) Onboard a westbound 747. Another incred ible trip overseas. The words that jump to mind are potential , spirit and growth . Improved play and larger organizations have not spoiled the joys of "co-op"eration . We have a lot to offer one another from both sides of the ocean -and a lot to learn together as well.

HOME (August 5) Back again. More players are travelling, touring and enjoying the internationa l tournament trail. Exchanges, participation, excitement. Friendships formed in fl igh t. The challenge of an open mind. If home is where the heart is, I never really left. Back again.

TORONTO, ONTARIO Center Island was the site for the 79 eastern Canadian meet again. Two days of fine weather drew large spectator attendance for both days of competition. Phil Cheevers and Jim Palmeri pooled their organizational ta lents and the result was an enjoyable meet for all .

ROCHESTER, NEW YORK St. John Fisher College once again was the site for the very popular Rochester series meet. Excellent accommodations, as always, and excellent weather, as never, had large numbers of both competitors and spectators enjoy a full weekend of disc play.

Golf saw Scott Zimmerman and Don Wilchek pull away from the extremely strong field during the early rounds, played on two diverse courses. In the f inal nine , played with a large and appreciative gallery, Scott pulled away for his th ird title of the year. Cynthia Allen won her second title of the year over the strongest women's field of the year.

In Double Disc Court, Alan Bonopane and Toronto winner Tim Selinske won the two­game final over the local favorites Jamie Moldt and Bill O'dell. Cynthia Allen and Michele Marin i won the Women's title over JoAnn Loftus and Ti ta Ugalde.

NEW BRUNSWICK, NEW JERSEY Octad may have left, but its legendary weather haunted th is year's NAS meet at Rutger's upper f ields. Very heavy ra ins had competitors running for the limited shelter on Saturday while Sunday was super hot and humid .

Super hot, too, were the performances. Rich Smits and Joe Hudokl in really had to hit in tak ing the Freestyle over the Colorad­icals-Doug Brannigan, Rick Castig lia, and Bill Wright. Jane Engelhardt and Suzanne Strait topped the women's field.

Distance honors went to two performers who simply outclassed the field . Scott Zimmerman led all rounds of the com­petition on his way to the t itle, winning by nearly thirty feet over second place finisher Mike Wohl. Simi larly, JoAnn Loftus took her title by an even larger margin over Judy Horowitz.

In the Masters Division Frank Anthony topped a strong Freestyle field as Gerry Lynas did the same in winning Distance.

KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI In its f irst season as host of a NAS event, Kansas City was perhaps one of the best meets of the summer. Hot and humid weather didn't seem to lessen the energy put forth by the regional clubs who joined together to stage this event.

A double win was earned by Gopher George Morris as he edged out Dave Lindig in golf and swept the f ield in distance. George was the second open player of the season to score a double win in a single meet (John Jewell also pulled a double in Seattle). Marie Murphy took women's golf as she proved that a short retirement doesn't always hurt the performance and Suzanne Fields edged out Ava Muslin by a mere two inches in the distance event. Master Willy Williams took the golf event and AI Durkins was the victor in Master's distance.

Two other facts bear mention: The partic ipation and success of the locals was pretty amazing. An unusually high percentage of the p layers were newcomers from the immediate area and it was great to see so many new faces. The second fact is the announcement of a winner of a brand new event. The M.C.B. Award (Most Chigger Bites) was won hands down by the Stork. The count was 227. So sports fans, the big question for 1980 is ... Can th is record be broken?

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA Truly an excellent meet. Jim Challas, Paul Thompson and the rest of the MFA crew offered a splendid weekend of competit ion. demonstration. and consciousness raising for the many thousands of spectators who went away impressed, informed and enlightened.

Last year's weather was nowhere in sight as the competition enjoyed two days of superb weather, but for a brief hurricane during the Freestyle finals. The wind not­withstand ing, freestyle was exciting with the WrighVBranningan/ Castiglia trio winning thei r first title of the year, over the Velas­quez brothers. Gail McColl and Janna Machwart topped the women's field.

Jim Challas shook off super strong Tom Monroe and won the SCF tit le in front of a large hometown crowd. Barb Urick won her second women's SCF title as she turned away Janna Machwart and Teresa Leahy.

The Master's division t itles went to Stan Frederickson from his Freestyle per­formance and AI Durkins in his SCF efforts.
