Current Steelhead Migration
Tops All Except Parent Year
The current winter steelhead mi
gration in the Umpqua river, there
turn from the largest run since
counting started in 19-16, already
exceeds, as o( Feb. 15. all except
the parent year, reports Wm. Pit
ney, game department biologist.
The total 1947 migration, 11.220
fish through the Winchester count,
ing station, was the largest since
the Umpqua river study was
started in 1946. The run now in
progress is the progeny from the
1947 fish. Careful studies are being
made to determine the rate of re
turn. findings, however, must await
final totals, because of influence of
climatic and water conditions on
fish movement.
In 1947, for instance, almost half
the run had gone through the count
ing station by Feb. 15. In other
years the proportion of total run
counted by mid-February was only
20 percent or less.
Hinges On Average
To date almost 2.000 fish have
been tallied at Winchester. Should
the 20 percent average hold true
this year, the offspring migration
will compare favorably with the
parent run. If, on the other hand,
half the migration already is rep
resented in fish counted to date,
the run will be far below the 1947
tally.
Usually, Pitney reports, the peak
of the run reaches Winchester dam
sometime between the middle of
February and the middle of April,
which also is the period of great
est spawning activity throughout
the watershed.
Because of the March and April
spawning season, the Umpqua riv
er is closed lo all angling from
March 1 to April 28, except that
salmon may be taken after April
15. This closure protects spawned
out steelheads returning to the
ocean, as steelhead. unlike salmon,
do not die after spawning but re
turn to saltwater.
Comparative figures on winter
steelhead migration are shown be
low, the first column giving the
year of migration, the second col

each year, the third column the
final total for each year, and the

Stage Set For Crucial Tilt
Between Ducks, Huskies
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu
gene Upwards of 16,000 basket
ball fans will jam McArthur Court
this weekend for the crucial North
ern division series which sends Ore
gon's Ducks against the powerful
Washington Huskies.
Ticket Manager Darrell Robinson
said early this week that all re
served seats for both tames were
sold out and about 2,000 general
admission tickets for both games
would go on sale at 5:30 p.m. both
Friday and Saturday evenings.
The games match the current
Northern division leaders in a ser
ies which could easily mean the
1951 title for the team that could
win both games. A split would post
pone the final decision until a week
later when Oregon trades home
games with Oregon State and Wash
ington plays host to Washington
State.
Washington already holds two de
cisions over Oregon this year. The
Huskies won easily in the confer
ence opener, 73 to 49, but were
hard-pressed to withstand a late
Wcbfoot rally the second night and
eke out a 61-60 victory.
Five of the top seven scorers in
the league will be in the starting
lumps of the two teams. Oregon's
Bob Peterson topi the league with
141 points, followed by Washing
ton's Bob Houbregs with 139 and
Frank Guisness with 137. In fourth
place is Jim Loscutoff of the Ducks
and Curt Barclay is seventh with
108.
The Ducks, who have won 16
and lost 11 this year, can't match
Washington's overall record of 17
and 4. The Ducks, however, have
yet to lose a conference game at
home and have hopes of maintain
ing that record. Washington, too,
has a perfect record at home,
which means that the Ducks can't
count on the Huskies losing either
of the two games in the linul week
to take up any margin the Huskies
' might pick up by winning here.

Olympic Stage
BUENOS AIRES fl) Argen
ttna has set a dazzling stage for
the first Pan American Olympic
games starting Sunday.
North Americans would have a
difficult time believing stadiums
could be so vast and food so lav
ish as available here.
Some 2,000 athletes from the
western hemisphere are expected
to compete in the warm, midsum
mer weather. The customary last
minute Olympic frenzy and fraz
zled nerves has engulfed this city.
For example, Uruguay won t
compete for complex political rea
sons and yachting has been dropped
because only Argentina and Chile
had ships ready. -
However, 17 olher sports are as
sured, and when the big United
States team arrives in two planes
Friday night, the heat of enthu
siasm is expected to match the
temperature.
The Pan American games are
patterned after the world Olym
pics, even to an Olympic village,
which is called "Villa Pan Ameri
cana." The Argentine West Point, which
is known as Colegio Militar De La
Nacion, will house male competi
tors. VOLLEYBALL SLATED
