Oakridge Drain St. Francis Willamette Pleasant Hill Most Animals Big Bluffers "UntwNMvnlltt Bluffing is one of the best de- veloped and highly overworked arts in nature. Gmzly bear meets grizzly and they exchange growls. Perhaps one will even rear up on his hind p legs and tower over the other. And i Yrc,wc!" without more ado, the smaller will usually vamoose. A cat will stand up to a large dog which has its hair raised and is barking and feinting. In turn the cat win arcn us Back, spit, and glare at the big brute daring him. Yet, given half a chance for escape, the eat will skiddoo up a tree with the dog in careful pur suit, just short of overtaking the cat. A strange buffalo bull may edge into the herd. Immediately the master of the group will rush him, paw the ground and violently switch his ridiculously short tail ' with the result that the would-be interloper will usually high-tail It out ot the territory, Drain Thumps J C; Still In Loop Lead District 5-A-I Standings W L Pet.

What is the meaning of this? Well, mostly, it is sheer bluffing. If it were necessary for the am mal to establish dominance each time by fighting, these animals would be forced to spend most of their lifetime fighting ana getting injured. . - Hence, see what nature does. She employs almost every sense to instill tear snort or iignung by running a big bluff. The wolf raises the hair on his back that is to make him seem much more formidable. The cat arches her back that Is to make her look twice as large as she really is and then she spits. The bear growls fearsomely that Is to Instill fear by sound. The buffalo paws the ground and switches his tail to instill fear by sight. The skunk releases an odor and it Is quite likely that most animals release fear-Instilling odors' which our dull human noses cannot discern. And so, by running a bluff Instilling fear by sight, smell, or hearing the animals quickly es tablish dominance and route the rival from the territory. But upon thou rare occasions when bluffing does not suffice, then the more-evcnlv-malchcd rivals will eln, and have it out possibly to the death. ' Drain High School's Warriors clung tenaciously to first place with Oakridge in district 5-A-2 Tuesday evening by defeating Junction City 30 0 in a league game The Warriors now own four vic tories in district play, as compared with Oakridge's five wins and no losses.

Stanford Passer Top Back Of Week PALO ALTO, Calif. OB Bob Garrett, Stanford T-quarterback whose spectacular passing to an upset win over strong UCLA last week earned him The Associated Press Back of the Week rating, would like to have a crack at pro fessional football. , Off last week's performance, when Bob completed 18 of 27 pass es for 1 yards, with 13 of 17 com ing in three touchdown drives, il looks as though he could make the grade in the pro draft next winter, -"One thing worries the 21-year-old, 190-pound senior. . .Uncle Sam may draft him before the pros. Bob has been a member of the Stanford Air Force ROTC unit. Being named Back of the Week had its greatest satisfaction for Garrett in that it proved he wasn't washed out when he -was injured near the end of last season. Many had predicted his grid career was over then.- . But he underwent surgery for a shoulder separation on his left side and to have hone chips removed from his right passing arm The results were demonstrated Satur day when he literally passed the favored UCLA team silly, winning 21-20.

WE WILL BE Pass, Defensive Play Studied By Cougars PULLMAN, Wash, im Coach Al Kircher ran the Washington State Cougars through a defensive scrimmage Tuesday and followed it with special practice on punts and pass plays. terfield's 30. Spahn easily topped Chicago's Billy Pierce for left- handed honors, 116 to 40. Six of the 10 players are brand new. The four holdovers from the 1952 team include Phil Kizzuto, shortstop; Al Rosen, third base; Stan Musial, left field, and Rob erts. Musial made the squad for the seventh time, missing only once since the All-Star Team was inaugurated in 1946. Surprisingly, the world cham pion Yankees placed only one man Rizzuto on the team, while the Brooklyn Dodgers, whom they defeated in the World Series, placed three men. They arc out fielders Duke Snider and Carl Fur illo in addition to Campanella. The St. Louis Cardinals were the only other club to have more than one representative of the Na tional League -, dominated squad. Red Schoendienst walked off with second base honors with 163 votes, and Musial topped- all outfielders with 142 votes. Scholendienst's total was second only to that of Campanella. The Natlional placed seven men to the American's three. The All-Star Team: First base Mickey Vernon. Senators .337 Second base Red Schoendienst, Cardinals .342, Third base Al Rosen, Indians .336.

The current migration of sil ver salmon in the Umpqua River is second highest fort any similar period listed on records at the Winchester counting station. William Pitney, game depart ment field agent, reports that the count on Oct. 15 stood at 870 fish, a total surpassed only in 1951 when 1,141 fish had been tallied by the -same date. In 1951, 54.4 per cent of the total run had passed the Winchester sta tion by Oct. 15. In 1952, when the total run was higher than in 1951, only 21.2 per cent of. the migration had been tallied. Reports from coastal points in dicate that the main body of silver salmon has not yet come into fresh water. If this situation holds true for the Umpqua, it is pos sible that new records may be set this year. On the other hand, the run may delay so long that a larger number of fish will spawn downstream and not travel as far as the Winchester station. Pitney reports a few adult Chi nook salmon still moving. Ten were counted during the first two weeks of October, which usually it the last month of the movement. Travel by summer steelhead has picked up, but the total is still con siderably below last year. The salmon trout run, however, has shown big improvement and also is second only to 1951. Comparative figures are given by Pitney as follows; Grade Gridders Ready For Play With the prospect of no rain today, the grade school football jamboree is scheduled to take place Wednesday night at Finlay Field starting at 7 p.m. Pee wee and heavy teams from five Roseburg elementary schools will participate in 14 quarters o( play.
