The trout, season opens next Thurs
day, April 1. 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."

PACIFIC U. WINS
JAEGER TROPHY
IN HEXATHLON
Donor of Silver Cup to Make
Presentation "at Student
Meet.
The Jaeger trophy cup, offered for
the winner of the hexathlon between
non-conference colleges of the state,
will go to Pacific university at For
eHt Grove. The cup will be presented
by E. J. Jaeger at a student aseembly
April 14.
The returns ; of the meet that was
staged by the colleges on their own
floors have been tabulated by A. M.
Grllley, physical director of the Y. M.
C, A. and president of the physical
education council of the independent
colleges of Oregon under whose direc
tion the contest was staged.
The average of each of the six com
peting colleges is: Pacific university,
414 8-5; Albany college. 408; Philo
math college, 380; Pacific college.
330 '4 ; McMionville aollegc . 822 3-5 ;
Willamette university, 253 2-7.
"Without any expense," said Presi
dent Grilley, "we have staged a state
wide competition between the non
conference scltools, have enlisted 20
per cent of the student body. in the
meet and have done much to awaken
the Interest of the dub in athletics.
The star can take care of himself.
This is- the first such meet and I be
lieve that it will prove epoch-making
in state athletics."
Mr. Grilley Is father of the physical
education council which has the eame
relation to independent colleges that
the northwest conference has to the
public schools. He says that he real
ized the need of central control cf ath
letics in the schools, and the lack of
any authority or directing force in the
non-conference institutions. The coun
cil now meets that need.
The members of the council are: Pa
cific university, Ralph Yakel and A.
P. Patton; McMlnnvllle college, K. J?,
von Osdol and W. H. Bueremann ; Phil
omath college, I N. Bennett and J.
C. Tucker; Pacific college, M. D. Haw

sity, O. C. Thompson and A, CJ. Walker
and Albany college, Hans Flo and F.
W. Tooles.
n the hexathlon, staged by 20,000
associatio men on their own lioors, I
the local association made 3693 Vz
points. The returns are to be for
warded to the New York headquart
ers where the results will ' bo .tab

PACIFIOIS CHANCE
LOOKS GOOD FOR
TRACK EVENTS

SpUl to The Journal.
Pacific University, Forest Grove,
Or., March 27. Coacft Yakel has is
sued Tils call to the baseball and track
men of the university to start the
workouts of the season. The quality
of the material now in school In both
of these sports makes .the chances of
the "varsity in placing well In non-conference"
circles, extremely bright.
In baseball, a large number of the
vetesans will be on the firing line
agalj this year. Ex-Captain A. Ire
land, his brother, John Ireland; Rich
ardson, Austin, Patten, Frost and Mc
Coy will strive to hold their positions
for the coming ieftofi. 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. Bellinger, who entered
from the local high school this year, Is
a wonder in the high. Jump. His mark
of five feet five Inches in the recent
indoor tests will easily be bettered in
the outdoor contests.
Non-conference championship hon
ors in both these sports will probably
be strongly contested for Hy the Jocal
school this spring. '

NEW CATCHER IS NOW
CAUSE OF WORRY IN
BEZDEK'S QUARTERS
University, of Oregon Coach
Is Confident of Outcome .of
the Season, However.
(Special to The Journal.!
University of Oregon, Eugene, Or
March, 27. Coach . Bezdek ' said four
times in five ' minutes tonight:
"They're too cocky. They think be
cause they won the championship last
year they can walk away with things
this year. They think they knowrit
all. I can't talk to them. I hava seen
teams before like -this and they have
been . beaten then the cockiness dis
appeared. "These other conference teams are
laying for us. We won the champion
ship last year and that is sufficient
reason for them. But though we did,
win last year we didn't run away with
the flag." ,
SwitcheC Off this the Oregon coach
said: "I suffered a' bigger loss than
you think In 'Shy Huntington's in
jury. He had a beautiful peg and he
was developing into a catcher fast. 1
had also hoped to work on . his kicking
this spring. I don't believe any of
the conference teams have as hard
luck as we do." r
