WALLA WALLA, May 20 -P)
The University of Washington
Huskies romped off with the
northwest - Intercollegiate - track
and field championship at Bor
.leske stadium today, winning 12
out of IS first places and running
up a score nearly double that of
Whitman, second place team.
The final tally showed Wash
ington 88, Whitman . 44 and
University of Idaho 52. ,
With Ideal weather, prevailing.
the favored Huskies went into the
lead on the second event and were
never headed, taking both first
and second place In six events
and chalking up the two hest in
dividual marks of the afternoon.
These were the Javelin, which
Keith DeCourcey of Washington
tossed 189 feet 7 inches for a new
stadium record, and the 100-yard
dash in which Evert Pitman of
the Huskies tied the stadium mark
of 9.9 seconds." -. .. I
It remained for Idaho's J ay
Gano, however, to achieve the
high individual total for the day
- with 12 points, barely nosing out
four other competitors for top
honors. Gano won both the high
jump and broad jump and placed
third in the low hurdle race.

Cuban Roberto Estallella of Mr,
Mack's Athletics took some of the
Cuban hot stuff out of his diet
this spring and now it's in his
legs and arms.
Mr. Mack affirms that Roberto
Is not only hot but also the "most
improved" player in the major
leagues. :1 .-. J-i' f
Last year the ! chunky little
neighbor hit .259. Now he's doing
.343. Last year he threw a bit
like the star of the Paoli girls'
aoftball team, now he's fast, ac
curate and smooth. Last year he
often misjudged the ball in flight.
Now his judgment is tops.
"It'l fruit Sat did if said Mr.
Mack. "Fruit ; and : changing his
playing position. He never played
center field before. The position
la made for him.' ' i
Roberto, before the , rennais
gance, was an infielder, with oc
casional . forays into left field.

---VEraE :ROBB 'M"
Two of the state game com
mission trucks last week pulled in
Just east of Turner and dumped
3000 beautiful rainbow - trout in
Mill creek. A few hundred were
four Inches long and fewer1 were
10 inchesbut they averaged 7 and
8, which adds up to a lot of fish.
Half of them were" dropped Just
beyond the first covered bridge
I and south of the pavement, while
uie otner load was taken Just past
the fourth bridge to a spot north
of the pavement. . ; - i
It is well known that you can't
outfigure both the weather AND
the fish, so It Is really no secret
where plantings take place. This
is proven in the ? report that a
party of fishermen were at the
spot within an hour after the
first liberation, and by dark had
taken only eleven-between them.
The following day another trio
went above the second point; of
planting and got their limits In
short order but they were all
cutthroats. So evidently the rain
bow tribe was here and there
getting acquainted."
Pheasanjt Farm Attracting Visitors
' Another short trip of Interest
and which takes no sports' equip
ment, 1$ the visit to the state
pheasant farm qt Corvallis. Right
now the birds are at their best
and an hour spent there can be
both interesting and educational.
You can get a close-up of a family
of Canadian honkers in case you
have only heard, them or' seen
them in flight. ' ! .
Pheasants in the field are an
aggravation to some and a delight
to others. It depends on whether
you have Just made a planting of
peas or corn, or whether you are
dreaming about next fall's hunt
ing season. The old ring-neck may
not be entirely holy, but it has
been proven that the 'China gets
blamed for. a lot of depredations
for which he is not responsible.
Pheasants must eat but the
farmer who remembers to seed a
little along the fence-rows knows
that his crop is less apt to be dis
turbed, and that the control cf In
sects and pests cannot be meas
ured. ;
How to Be Happy and Stay at
Home
This is a land of promise for
isnt that about all we have been
hearing lately from the candi
dates? yet IX it weren't for the
hopes and plans spurred on - by
the right to fulfill them, we would
be a sad lot When they wrote
that freedom having to do with
the "pursuit of happiness'' they
were pointing right at the out
doorfolk. It matters little if you
choose a rod, or a camera, or hik
ing boots and, a bed-roll in get
ting your share of happinesson
ly let us not allow it to be taken
away. This IS a land of promisi
for tomorrow.
Just now we must be content
with close-in recreation, so that
later when we may trek farther
afield we won't have forgotten
how to play. Wild-life projects
are the answer, such 1 as trout
holding-ponds, raising pheasant
broods, or salvaging feathers, fats
and hides. These are important to
all who enjoy outdoor recreation
as well as those who favor, the
hunting and fishing sports.
The club holding-pond at Tur
ner provided countless visitors
many thrills Until it was closed,
and the local ' meat market had
unheard-of sales in hamburger to
be tossed in as feed. Now the urge
is upon us to build another. Pheas
ant raising is Ideal for the Willa
mette valley and can be made ed
ucational where the younger fu
ture sportsmen are given the re
sponsibility. Silverton boasts of
several broods being handled with
great interest and success.
Salvage- of wildfowl ' feathers
and hides of big game animals for
the armed forces has been more
systematically conducted in the
middle west than locally, which Is
a condition we should correct One
campaign resulted in. 14,500 deer
and elk hides, 52 tons of fat and
400 pounds of duck down. Trans -
lated into soldiers' clothing, the
buckskin salvage would manufac
ture 10,000 aviator jackets and the
down. 1000 sleeping robes, or 4000
down-lined jackets, r .
