Paf I Eugene Register-Guard, Friday, Oct. 13, 1144 Fish Talcs By DICK SHUT! t Dunlop, who write ind sajs he enjoyed last week's "trip down atbo Rogue," suggests that we re- .cord similar jaunts of other sports ; men anglers or nimrods in this column each week. That we would "be happy to do If those involved could stand the wrath of the OPA. Naturally we want to use person "alities in the stories not ficticious characters. Dunlop, in closing, re marks, "You fellows sure have wonderful thumbs. Don't let the OPA cut them off. I started on my first fishing trip in three years, the other day, and wound up in the -doctor's office so he went instead." - That reminds us about the nim rods who started off for eastern Oregon (with just enough gas to make the trip) and after traveling as far. as Lowell, suddenly discov ered they had failed to pack their guns in the car. Instead of driving -back to townand,taking a-chance "of running out of gas in the east ern mountains, they hitch-hiked back and then took a taxi back to their car. . . v . . We- would, not foolin', like to have yarns about your trips, and we thank Dunlop for the sugges tion. We've been intending for some time to write to Frank B. Wirt;, state game department superin tendent, asking about the commis sion's plans for the post-war per iod when our men are coming home- wanting to take to the for- csts and the streams. It's been just a fleeting thought up until now, 7 and the letter will be written soon. The fellows 'who have been J fighting Japs in the malaria-in- tested south Pacific and flying ' tokens over Berlin will want to try , their luck with the fly rod, the shot-gun and rifle. They've no doubt dreamed of streams tccm ', lng with Redsides, lake with the brook trout jumping like acrobats, ! the forests stampeded by deer, the . fields thick with pheasant, and the skies black with waterfowl. :ugene- GameSet For- Civic Stadium Bend Eleven One Of State's Leading Teams Claude Cook's state title-contending Bend Lava Bears invade Eugene Friday night, gunning for their fifth straight gridiron vic tory of the young 1944 season. The central Oregonians, boasting a veteran,' speedburning back field quartet, will engage the once-beaten Eugene high Axe men at Civic Stadium. Game time will be 8 o'clock. Coach Hank Kuchera's "Big Purple", still co-leaders with Al bany for the No-Name league gonfalon, was eliminated from Oregon title play at North Bend last week-end when the Bulldogs plastered on a 19-6 licking. Close followers of the Axemen predict they will bounce back in a "giant-killer" role to knock over the invaders from the high coun try. Although Kuchera- threatened a wholesale shakeup after the North Bend exhibition in which mistakes, and some bad breaks, cost a victory, the regulars have shown so well in practice this week he is expected to start the usual eleven with Dale Warberg in place of the injured Bill Har bcr at quarterback. Ferguson Big Threat The Axemen defeuted Oregon City 14-0 and University (Eu gene) 20-0, but still displayed a definite lack of scoring power which was niore evident at' North Bend last week. Offense has been the main practice "must" all week along with a defense that will attempt to slop the sensational runnlne of Captain Don Fergu son, 138-pound rirjht halfback who has scored the bulk of Bend's touchdowns in the four past games.

States being presented by the winner of the annual National tournament at Wichita, '.:. against Dartmouth at Boston in the day's top intersectional game, despite the fact that the New Hampshire Indians have been pointing for the occasion. A vic tory for Dartmouth,' 5 to .1 underdog, would rate as the ma jor upset ot the season to date. However, other major teams aren't likely to have it as easy. Purdue and Ohio State, listed as the top elevens in the Big Ten, both face opposition Saturday in which they are little better than even money. The BouermaKers play recently strengthened lows Pre-FHght while Ohio State op- rjoses the defensively strong Wis consin eleven, in a match be tween undefeated teams. Southern California, potenti ally the strongest team on the Pacific Coast, is only even money to win from St. Mary's Pre- Flight and in the top southwest era game, Texas and Oklahoma are rated the same. Utah and Colorado are even money in the Rockies with Iowa State and Kan. sas "no choice" in the odds books in the Big Six feature.

Cottage Grove, a 39-13 victor over Prineville in their only test of the season, will be heavily fav ored to take the Indian outfit, al though the Indians will be throw ing an added weapon at them in Tuney Kennedy, stellar wingback who has been out with injuries since the first of the season. Coach Curtis French of the Lions displayed s lineup that had plenty of offensive punch, and a backfield pair, Dwayne Campbell and Noel Carpenter, at times made him forget his Mone-tnan-gang" of last year Howard Harpole. The two teaming in a potent aerial combo scored a pair of touch downs.
