leader ahead of fly. Hook is usually size 2 or 4 Siwash. May be
used in Willamette belows falls, Ysquina and Alsea. Some shad are
occasionally taken in Siuslaw.
In some of the cities along Connecticut rivers, when the shad run
hits in the spring, nearly all business stops and there is a parade of
fishing rods leading to the streams. The shad has meant fishing again
in the east, in some areas, where there had been little to speak of. In
1940 the shad became known as a fighting fish of good size and weight
and the fun began.
As yet the shad has not become too popular on the west
coast. This is due partly to the fact that the sprint run ehinook
is making his appearance about the same time as the shad run in
the Willamette below the Oregon City falls. Most of the anglers
spend their time after spring salmon with little thought toward
the silvery shad.
Fly fishing for shad has become one of the looked forward to
6ports "of the east coast, and will in time take up some of the slack
time of the western angler. The fish run from about 4 pounds for the
male fish to about 6 pounds for the female. They hit hard, rip off line
in a hurry and do nearly everything an angler would wish for.
Shad Congregate Near Mouths of Stream
Shad like to congrcga.tr near the mouths of some of the small
er streams emptyinr into the Willamette below the Orecon City
fall and also in the eddies in the main Willamette river.
The female lays her eggs in the water itself rather than in pre
pared nests on the stream bottom. The eggs are sticky and adhere to
everything they touch on their way to the bottom. The young hatch
In about six days.
According to many shad devotees, the roe of the female is
quite a delicacy when properly prepared. Quite often It it smoked
and may resemble the caviar of the sturgeon.
This nearly forsaken fish of the west coast will be along most any
day now and you will see many anglers armed with fly rods, spin
ning rods, and casting rods -trying for the sporty shad. On many occa
sions it is not unusual for an angler to take as many as 20 to 30 good
sized shad in a fewf hours fishing. Most of them are released as the
preference seems toj lie with the female. .
Upland bird Saunters will be pleased to learn that the game
farm at Hermiston is undergoing a ehange. According to reports,
some 10,000 Chukar partridges will be reared for release in east
ern Oregon this fall. A trial planting of Chukars in Warner Val
ley last year weathered one of the toughest winters in many a year
giving- proof that the bird is a tough critter and able to take It.
Chukar Partridge Tough to Bag
Hunters in Washington and Nevada hold the Chukar In high es
teem, claiming that he is without question, the toughest of all the up
land game birds to get into the game bag. They prefer wild, rough
country that taxes a hunter's endurance. They are going full speed at
the take-off and "full-speed" means quite a bit faster than the quail
which is no slow-poke itself.
The game commish will liberate 1,000 rainbow trout in Mill
Creek tomorrow. April 12, In keeping with their policy to give the
youngsters something- to angle for come the gala event of the
opening day tournament. .
The young followers of Izaak Walton may well consider them--elves
fortunate in having a stream the size of Mill Creek set aside
for their own use. Most of the juvenile waters in the U. S. are small
brooks or ponds and the percentage of trout waters is small. Most of
the "special" waters across the nation are stocked with bluegill,
crappie, bass and catfish. The Marion county kids have cutthroat and
rainbow to try for with an occasional steelhead tossed in to afford
excitement for the day.

WASHINGTON (JP) The National Boxing Association ratings,

Even though Rocky is getting a crack at the title, the NBA figures
There are nine middleweights
around who are better than Graz

the champ, Sugar Ray himself.
The ratings provide few sur
prises. For one thing, no new
champion has been unco vered
since the final 1991 ratings. So
all the activity has been confined
to juggling the names of the con

Put in Creek
A total of 1,000 rainbow trout
were planted in Mill Creek Thurs
day by the Salem Lions Club and
local Izaak Walton chapter in
preparation for the big Kids Fish

The fish, averaging close to nine
inches in length, were dumped at
five points between Salem and
Aumsville.
Wayne Doughton and Harry

The trout were obtained from

SACRAMENTO, Calif. P)-Burt
Barkelew, Sacramento's 35-year-old
"rookie,' pitched his second
straight four-hitter in the Pacific
Coast League Thursday night to
defeat Portland, 7-2.
Barkelew, v who: beat Los An
geles, 4-2, last week, gave the
Beavers only one earned run this
time. In the fourth, Frank Austin
got life when Bob Dillinger's
throw pulled BiU j Glynn off first
base. Austin, although the Beavers
were trailing three runs, promptly
stole second and scored on Joe
Brovia's hit , to center.
The other Portland run came in
the sixth as Ed Basinski singled,
moved to third on Austin's hit to
right, and scored as Brovia rapped
into a double play.
The Solons had been unable to
score more than two runs in any
inning in the first nine games of
the season, but tonight they
grouped three in the first frame
and clustered four in the seventh.
DeBiasI Rapped
Vince De Bias!, first of five
Beaver pitchers, was greeted by
Bob Dillinger's single, the first of
four. Mike McCormick doubled
home Dillinger and scored when
Glynn, hitting safely in his 10th
straight game, punched to center.
Jo Gordon sacrificed and Glynn
rode home on Al White's hit to
center.
Gordon doubled to open the sev
enth. After two were out, Larry
Ward walked Richie Mvers. On a
3-0 pitch Vinnie Smith doubled
against the left boards, scoring
both runners. Barkelew followed
with a double down the left foul
line and Dillinger's fourth single
scored the pitcher.

the 10th inning as San Francisco's
