The news brings joy to - .several hundred' bankers, merchant, professors, physicians, mechanics, . writers, errand boys and others who i cut on the trout streams seek no . higher distinction than to be known '-as "fishermen. and good sports." fc Before the Progressive Business Wen s club last Thursday, Lester V., Humphreys, Portland attorney and : prominent In the work of the -Multno- man Anglers' club, gave some practical fishing wisdom. lie told the business tnen where to go fishing, when to go . and he said, what every fishermen : knows, that catching trout Is partly know-how and mostly luck. In part. he said i . "Do you know where to go fishing? Within an hour's ride of the city of J Portland, you can find splendid fishing every month in the year. From now till Juue, within 15 miles of Portland, Chinook salmon fishing is good." The 'Chinook is a splendid game fish. Tiiey " are caught In the Willamette river below the falls at Oregon City. .,'... " Chancs Are Plentiful. "Later these same fish may be caught in the Willamette river near Eugene and farther up. They may be caught in the Umpqua river near Rose iburg, in the Rogue river, and later in the summer in the Sandy river, in the VNehalem river and the Yaquina and in practically all the bays along the .. Pacific coast. , ' -From April to November trout may .. bo caught. Bass and crappls bite ail .summer and fall. Silverslde salmon are. caught in September and October. Salmon trout fishing lasts from Sep tember till March. tr- .'or Apru risning, the creeks in , Washington county. Dairy - creek, , . Hcoggins creek, Oales creek, I'tton creek and the upper waters of the tTualatln river are best. Longer ;trips may be taken to practically any of the . coast mountain, streams with reasona ble certainty of good success. "The Cascade mountain streams are not good fishing untty along in May and June' when the snow is out. ij Streams" within easy reach of Portland ;-are the Little Sandy, Salmon river, Cedar creek. Zigzag creek, Clackamas 'j;, river, Clear creek, -both Kagle creeks, 'j'Molailo river, and, over in,. Washington, ' . WaHhougal river, Lewis river, Kalama river, Cowlitz- river and a number of f pother streams. Baas in Oswego Xiake. ."Bas are taken' from Oswego lakc, from Blue -lake near Troutdale, from j.th sloughs along the Columbia river, - from Willamette slough, and other waters around Hauvlns Island: also in the lower waters of the Tualatin river. - There are also plenty of cat fish and . ; tcrappies. t J Streams ars Splendid. The Luckianiute. Santiam, McKen zle anH, the upper waters tjf the Wil lamette are all splendlkf fishliig U streams. Douglas county has the ; ITmpqiuT. Farther south is the Rogue, whivtir.has, from July t to October, the most splendid fly fishing in the world. Bteelheads weighing up. to 12 pounds r( are caught 011 the fly in this river. v Tie steelhead ' Is always a hard and - spectacular fighter. Kastern Oregon has the. Deschutes, a wonderful trout - stream,. Umatilla, John Day,' , Grande, - Ronde and a lot of splendid lakes. . The, coast counties have equally fine ' ' ktreanu, including theNehalem, Wi! :., fon, Trask." Nestuccji, Silet, and many other rivers and creeks. In fact. It would be difficult to name a lake f or stream in Oregon where game fish re not-to be found. "Silverside salmon are caught In ' practically the. .same waters as the ..Chinook. Salmon trout are found in all streams which they can reach from ftha ocean. "? "The advantages which Oregon has are hest appreciated when it is remem ;"tered that la the majority of the states -v8t of the Rocky mountains.vtrout . streams can be reached only by trips "of4 200 to 300 miles and more, some f;. times requiring several days' time and s always large expense."

Troutman, Lucas and several of the other new men -will try for places on the squad. Track will " be stronger than ever this year, only a few places. betg weak. Frost in the sprint is develop ing rapidly and will prove a sure point getter. The hurdles have strong runners In Dibble and Robinson. Tup per, in the distances, and ' Ricker, on the: quarter, are good men, who are due for fast time this season. Among the new men, two are of special strength in their events: Clark, of Rainier, is scheduled to place in the weight events.. He Is of splendid build and for. some time last v' year trained under Philbrook of Multnomah club, thus bringing his ,' form up to winning style.
