Here these crooks are applying all their cunning to exploit fields in southern Kasele, in the Congo's south-west. Although the local police are doing their best to hunt down diamond runners and smugglers en lone jungle trails, illicit gems worth millions are being slipped to firms in Brussels, Antwerp, Amsterdam and New York. Police have recently intro- duced swoops an all southern ICatagang railway lines, bringing useful captures. The diamond smugglers em- ploy scores of tricks. Many gems are trickling out of the area in parcels carried by seemingly innocent tourists. One rich cache, detected a few weeks ago by a quick-witted policeman, emerged from a souvenir elephant tusk. The tourist, an American busi- nessman, said he wanted to mount this trophy above the family fireplace. "It's quite in- nocent," he said. That remark alerted the policeman. Examin- ing the relic carefully he found cunningly carved cavity which concealed a horde of sparkling gems. Q. What is the best way to once bread? A.

HERE'S" HER PROOF — Actress Maureen O'Hara has denied she played a love scene in the l'Dalcony of a Hollywood movie theatre, as claimed during the Confidential Magazine trial. She claims she has a stamped passport to prove she was mak- ing a film in Europe at the time, and this photo was made e f her in London almost four years ago, after she had return- ed from Spain, but during the t/me the magazine claimed she was in Hollywood. TUBE THRILL—Pretty girls water skiing at Cypress Gardens areto far from unusual, agreed. But how many skim along on a big inter tube? Scarlett Voris gets a big kick out of the novel. idea Amazing Boom in Archery Seldom since Henry V won the clay at Agincourt had there been a scene like the one near Watkins Glen, N.Y., re- cently. Over rolling hills and rutted fields, thousands of ar- rows sliced the summery air as the pick of America's bowmen stood their ground in the Na- tionaI Field Archery tourna- ment, the largest gathering of archers in the history of the sport. The mass shooting was done at a distance of 12 to 80 yards. First, there was a field round, shooting at black and white tar- gets of concentric circles (four arrows per target), over all kinds of terrain. Then they shot a hunter's round (four arrows), also from hill and dell, except that the black target face with a white aiming spot was far more deceptive. Finally, they shot a broadhead, their object a life- size animal target at a distance up to 60 yards away. Msot of the arrows rang true, on to the difficult .targets. But the bowman whose ' every' shot was followed to its target was a ' 42 -year-old ... mountain man from Brevard, N.C., named O.K. 'Smathers. Archery has had such a tre- mendous spurt in popularity lately that the air is literally filled with arrows at many parks and glades across the country. In Sacramento, Calif., last month, the 76 -year-old Na- tional Archery Association held its 73rd annual competition and this ' month, the oldest -archery group in the U.S., the United Bowmen of Philadelphia, found- ed in 1828, will stage their shoot. Elsewhere groups .are banding together for weekend competi- tions, some going for target archery and others, the more varied field archery. Field archery is the type of shooting done for thousands of years in war and hunting; tar- get archery, with its tradition- al ringed target, is a more malized version often know "back yard" archery. Abouts; year ago, when archery bec' a hobby, rather than a mean survival, target shooting the gene for gentlemen. Aro; 1935, a small group in Cali;, nia wanted to take archery b to its original form, shootin a variety of targets at vary distances in natural surro ings. As a result, many arc became hunters. In some pl the bow -and -arrow hunting. son opens two weeks before gun -hunting season, with the prime target. At Watkins Glen, Smathe not the only member of family participating. His year-old son Kenny who . ;t the North Carolina tar archery men's state champk ship while his father was a'ta is competing, and his 17-Yei' old daughter Lynne, who w; held the women's state t. championship for the ,past a) years, is also entering. Si. ers, who holds the nation get record 'of 29 bull-ey 30,• at. a distanc .taking 'part' in field championship. Along with most ex Smathers urges caution young bowmen: "There is"E such thing as a toy bow."
