LUMBERJACKING

CHOP CHOP
At the Olympics, one goes for gold; at the Lumberjack World Championhips, you whack at wood. Sawdust flew in Hayward, Wis., last weekend as 94 jacks and jills competed in 16 events. Among the lumber legends: New Zealand's David Bolstad (top, foreground), who went out on a limb to take second in the Springboard Chop.
