'-'-...' M';Y Th OREGON STATESMAN Salem. Oregon, Thursday Morning, April 14, 1938 page; eleven i Hi t .A By RON UEMMELL Mr. Rlpplecaster, Mr. VooU sinkfT and Mr. Kddysptnner take off Friday. To each, be they a junior, inmlor or inter mediary, there is only one thing more important than that. The ' weather. While Mr. RippleCas tcr, being's trifle more deroot than his brother Izaak Waltons, has been oa his knees for two . solid weeks praying that it does not rain until this coming; weekend has safely passed. Mr. Poolslnker and Mr. Eddyspin ner are no whit less eager about keeping general preeipi .tation at a minimum. For, lest joa uninitiated do not know, rain -would murky those fisb .. filled creeks to a point where Little Johnnie Rainbow and Miss Dolly Yard en would be un able to see the tempting lores set adrift on the waters for their especial benefit. That would be bad. MD's Missed. It seems ridiculous that the medical profession has progressed to the point that it can tell you that a man's blood stream is com posed of plasma, corpuscles and oxygen, butthas never to this day recorded the fact that "fishin " is an integral part. Wny some one hasn't taken the medical society to task for that lack before now is a mystery that would intrigue E. Phillips Oppenheim himself. Ask most any stranger you meet about fishin', and he'll tell you that the dern stuff is just in hid blood and there's no getting away from it. 'You'd better ask him today, though, for tomorrow he'll be gone. Sure, gone a-fishin'. He probably won't be able to tell you, when he gets back, why he went. All he in tell you is that every time his neart beat, instead of merely thump, thump, thump ing as usual, it kicked up a rhy thm that plainly Baid "goin fish- In', goin fishin, goin' tishin'." Adam Angled. It's been like that ever since Adam did the first angling in .the Garden of Eden. At least, there must have been a stream - of some sort in the Garden,, for no just God would ever have created man and not have given hint a place in which to fish. Though there are many who to day frown on bait fishin', In all probabilities Adam was the first bait fisherman. He un doubtedly used the worm from the Apple. For, just because it was forbidden fruit didn't mean that it didn't have its quota of one worm per apple. Just where he obtained his line is a matter to conjecture. Yon do that. Canny Tribe. - Was a time, at least so songs and poems would have ns believe, when fishin' didn't entail all the requisites it now does. Back ftrere," and there are no doubts many present day rod wpippers who can remember, all a man hsd to have to go fishin' was a willow switch, a handful of string and a self -fashioned hook. Now it is essential to have a balanced rod, tested line, an automatic gadget on which to wind great lengths of it and a J 100 worth of glittering lure. No one is to blame for this great -change that has come over fishin' hut fishermen themselves, They've educated the finny tribe to a point where it won't look at an ordinary barren hook, but must have fantastic devices and have same flipped on the water just so. Even then the tribe as a - whole is reticent. Fish are smart ask any fisherman. Essentially the Same. Yes, while on the surface ' fishin' has evolved to decree that it is hardly recognizable as the same sport Granddad in dulged in when boy, in its es sence it is exactly tbc same. When the sap begins to flow in the trees, flood waters recede and streams commence a -clear-lag , a body's feet begin to itch. In bygone days he went fishin' promptly. Now be waits until John Law says Its legal sport. Then he took his catch where and when he found it, and now he tries to get it wherever there's a stream leg ally open to him and his Ok. Suppose, to have been of some service, we should have collect ed some vital fishing facts to present to you in this column, in regard to streams, weather predictions and 'such. Reason why we haven't is that it wouldn't do. any good. If we told you all streams were over flowing .their banks, roads to mm Vikin Balanced Nine Seen by Hank Improved Over Last Year Is Mentor's Belief; Bright to Pitch First 1938 season fling for Coach Harold Hank's Vikinsr baseball club is heduled for this afternoon with the Albany Bull dogs, at Albany. . Not having seen his outfit work nnder fire. Coach Hank hesitates to catalogue it. but does reveal that be thinks it a better balanced aggregation than was fielded last season. LeRoy Bright, husky Bouthoaw who saw service last year, has been named by Hauk for mound duty in today's opener. Hubert Pannier will be on the receiving end pt Brigbfs offside slants. The Infield will line up with Steiger at first. Kelly at the keystone.J cannon at snort, and Barham bob bing around the hot corner. Pitchers' Batting Strong In the outfield Hauk will rely on two chuckers. Eland and Wil kinson, and Frankie. Evans, a sophomore. Because his pitching string wields heftier bats than other outfield aspirants. Hauk in tends to use it considerably In the outer gardens. Lloyd Irwin, a transfer from Canada with some experience, is a right-handed f 1 i n e e r iwhom Hank says may be able to deliver. He just-started working ont this week and isn't in pitching shape yet. A second game will be played by the Vikings this week, at Che ma.wa Saturday afternoon. Fishing Outlook Good for Friday Weather Vagaries Ordv Fear; Coast Streams Okeh Though High Unless old man weather throws a damper in the flue, conditions for the start of the fishing sea son tomorrow are generally good. according to yesterday's bulletins State police report that coastal streams were good, but that many were yet in high-water stages. Til lamook streams are normal and the water is clear. Streams open in that county includes Beaver creek, Tillamook river, Trask riv er. Little and Big Nestucca rivers, Three rivers, Wilson river, Kil ehls river, Miami river, Nehalem river and north fork and Salmon berry river. Tidewater areas' in Lincoln county report fair catches, with the streams also in good condi tion. Clatsop county streams are high but clear and good opening day catches are predicted. Lane county streams are also high and clear. "Fair" is the word describ ing the McKenzle, cold weather having halted the bug hatch and bait fishermen will probably have better luck there. One stream that usually beck ons fishermen, the Deschutes, is high and muddy, according to re ports, and will not be in good fishing condition for at least an other two weeks. The Cascade lakes, with the exception of Sut tle lake, are either coated with ice o roads leading to them are blocked by snow. Durb Better not Sleep; Dislocates Shoulder in .
