Remember the trout fly that was so popular about 20 years ago. called PROFESSOR? It used to be that no fly box was considered well filled unless it included at least a half-dozen of the learned flies. A John Wilson, Scottish author of 1785-1854 who was more widely known under his assumed name, Christopher North, was the origin ator of the fly that was named after h". Wilson became a professor at Edinburgh University in 1820. f According to the history of the fly, it was on a fishing venture that found Wilson without any flies that prompted an "on-the-spot Job of tying one for the work at hand. Using what materials he could find about his person and the countryside he fashioned a fly from the petals of a buttercup, some grass, and a thread from a sock. This creation resulted in the "Buttercup Yellow later known as the Pro- lessor. - ' :" In his book "The Scetlsh Angler," printed In 1IJ5, Thomas F. Stoddard says, "Foremost Is the fly commonly eaUed the 'Profes sor after Professor Wilson of Edlnbnrrh. The winrs are formed of a mottled brown feather taken from the Mallard or wild Drake; the body Is ef yeUow floss while the hackle Is ef fine red er black hackle.

It will be a vengeful crew Coach Harold Hauk sends against the Coasters in the 80th game of their lengthy series, as Lebanon not only ruined a ! perfectly good winning, streak for Salem Tuesday, but also whacked the Vik Jayvees for the first time this campaign and released consid erable air from the big basket ball bubble that was being inflat ed at the 14th and D streets camp ground. -Up until Lebanon dumped 'em the Salems were being roundly considered as one of the very top teams in the state. They had an 8-won, l-lost mark until the up set came and had more than av enged thaHone loss to Jefferson i of Portland. On the basis of their respective records to date this season, the saiems should waltz by the Astor ians in both weekend rassles. The Finns, under new coach Alex Pet terson, have won five and lost as many. But after Tuesday's surprise from Bud Page's Linn county lads, it wouldn't be at all surprising to see the Astorians waylay the locals again. Lebanon proved that it can be done. Very little incentive is needed to make any Salem-Astoria caee mix a bell ringer, as the two schools have since 1939 provided the state with one of its hottest hoop rivalries, The Finns are certain to possess much more con fidence, however, after now know ing that -the big Salems can be had by the smaller teams. Hauk's starting lineup for the opener tonight remains unchanged. Six-foot five-inch Wayne Walling win dc at rorwara with six-foot three-inch Doug; Rogers. Jim Rock at 6-2 will be at center and Can- tain Daryl Girod and Larry Cham berlain will be the guards. Peterson's starters, -x not nearly as big as Salem's but reportedly faster and just las aggressive, will be Ron ' Brown at center, Walt Jacobson and little Dick Johnson at forwards and Dick Windsor and Dick Pavlat at guards. Pa via t is the team's scoring leader. Astoria leads In the series. 25 Wins to 24 for Salem. Going ahead at long last will be another prize the Hauka will be shooting for. Charles Given NEW. YORK.
