AF Newsfeatora.
Bloomington, Ind. C. R. My
ers has come up with something
.that figures to clarity amateur
wrestling. It's an electric score
board that not only tells the
score but how points are being
cored.
The Bloomington high school
eoach calls it a "Match-O-Matic"
and says, if enough people are
interested, he will have the
board made in large quantities.
' "Its purpose Is to provide a
running score of the indivi
dual bouts In meets In such a
way that spectators as well
as officials and contestants
may know not only the score,
but how the points were earn
ed," says Myers.
' Two metal slots at the top of
the board are for names of the
rival teams, while lower slots
are for individual names. An
other tells you the weight class
being wrestled.

has been coaching the school

year his team has won the state
championship.
In his high school days he
won the 100-pound state tl-
The only catching rookie Is
Steve Lembo, who hit .292
with Montreal. However, with
the receiving handled by Roy

Two of the eight new pitch

from Montreal; Clarence Pod

Hitch Hiking
Of Tumvater Falls
By JACK HEWINg
(AP MsnfMtuiM)
Olympia, Wash. You'll have
to stop Insinuating that fish
never learn, even If they do run
in schools.
Our DesChutes river salmon
might not like it. They're edu
cated. It took five years, but
they graduated cum laude.
Our salmon are so smart they
even hitch a ride around Tum
water Falls in a tank truck.
The DesChutes was a salmon-
less river until the Washington
State Department of Fisheries
set up its college of ichthyologic
al knowledge. The stream ram
bles down from the mountains
into Puget Sound and tumbles
over Tumwater just before it
reaches the sea. Mighty leaper
that he is, the salmon could nev
er hop over the Tumwater.
1
But every Inch of salmon wat
ts vitally important to the
state of Washington. Bonneville
dam slowed down the runs on
the lower Columbia and Grand
Coulee blocked them entirely
halfway ud the river. Now Mc-
Nary is about to stick still an
other big concrete foot in the
stream in eastern Oregon.
To preserve the runs, the de
partment is forcing every down
stream river to handle all the
salmon possible. The same is
being done with the rivers feed
ing Into Salty Puget sound ana
the DesChutes was asked to do
its share.
Starting in 1945, about 600
000 young Chinook salmon and
300,000 silvers have been plac
ed in the DesChutes. The can
didates for this class had to pass
an entrance examination, too.
No salmon could enroll unless
its folks came from a stream
similar to the DesChutes in size,
temperature, feeding conditions
and distance of the spawning
grounds from salt water. Eggs
from fish native to the nearby
Green river were coddled in
hatcheries and the resulting in
fants released in the DesChutes.
The salmon is a gadabout who
spends most of his life In the
ocean and only comes home to
raise a family. This year the fish
from the first plant came bounc
ing back, each weighing IS to
30 pounds and wild to get home
and set up housekeeping. They
turned into the DesChutes and
smacked head-on against Tum
water falls. They leaped, turned
back for a run and leaped again
and you could imagine them
cussing under water.
The fisheries department had
its eye cocked at the river and
sent in men with nets and boats,
The salmon were hauled from
the nets, tossed into wet gunny
sacks and carried to a waiting
tank truck. Oxygen was pumped
into the truck's l.zoo gallons
of water while it was being fill
ed with salmon and during the
short Jaunt up the hill to the
head of the falls.
There the hitch hikers were
dumped back In the river to
swim on home.
The truck lugged 2,426 sal
mon around Tumwater falls.
These will spawn in the upper
river and their young, after
about a year, will take off for
the deep sea. They'll sail mer
rily and unhurt over Tumwater
falls, with never a worry about
the return trip.
Some day there may be
