Surfaced Whale
Scares Boatman
All of the risk in crossing the
bar of a coastal river is not con
nected with water or weather, re
ports Jack Hayes, resident of West
lake. Visiting in Roseburg Monday,
Hayes told of a weekend trip in
hij cabin boat across the bar of
the Siuslaw river.
Midway on the bar, a whale
surfaced within a few feel of the
boat.
"I shut off the motor and
prayed" Hayes said.
Alter rolling a few times, the
v.hale swam away from the vi
cinity of the vessel and Hayes con
tinued out to deep water where he
and his party had a successful
fishine tria.
Active in the work of the Oregon
Wildlife federation, Hayes visited
in Roseburg in connection with
that organizations program.

The Caps made It three straight
over the Victoria Athletics last

hurler, was off form at Victoria
but pulled through with the aid of
his base-thieving mates..
