In In sufficient quantities, drifting has paid off even during
periods of quite murky water. Since fish apparently locate
food by acent almost as much at by sight, a glob of salmon
eggs can be very effective.
. While artifical lure "purists" will scorn coast angling
ntU the water clears, It Is surprising the luck an angler can
have on certain bright lures, even in muddy water. We recall
booking steelhead on the Little Nestucca some time ago In
very murky water. The visibility seemed scarcely more than
a foot but apparently we dropped the daredevil right by
the fish. He struck almost as soon as the red and white lure
hit the water, made a slashing run and wound the leader
around a snag.
FABULOUS "CHEERY BOBBER"
j Speaking of lores, an advance bulletin from Outdoor
Life magailne, Informs as that the December Iseue of
' magailne will carry twe articles en the fabulous "Cherry
Bobber" lure. Eaoa Bradner of Seattle writes one, and
Francis H. Amea ef Portland pens the ether. The gist et
the articles is that the Cherry Bobber is one terrific steel
'. head lore for both Oregon and Washington winter ram
fash. The articles wiU tell how to ase the lore, and
. should be interesting to Oregon steelhesders.
On Thanksgiving morning we spent a couple of hours
scanning the sky near McMinnville for ducks., The high water
from the Yamhill was subsiding, leaving many potholes that
looked ideal for enticing ducks. Conditions looked good
but the ducks seemed to think otherwise. Very few were In
evidence, and little shooting was to be heard. However, we
did have some fun with one old greenhead mallard.
' We called him out of a flight that passed high overhead.
There were possibly fifty mallards In the flight, all definitely
not interested in our decoys with the exception of this one
drake. He cut out of the flight, and we could hear his rusty
' "quack quack quack" as he made high circles over the decoys.
We really went to work on the duck call pleading, ca
joling and promising the old boy a happy landing. He dropped
down a bit, his neck bent as he gave the decoys, a good going
over. At the time, there was no breeze, and the decoys looked
lifeless on the water. Since we were to be out only a short
time, we hsdn't rigged up a "dipping duck" among the decoys,
so there was no way to put a ripple on the water.
Finally the drake dropped down with serious intent By
this time we hsd blown so much moisture into the duck call
that the reed was right on the point of lamming, and we knew
a sour note would spoil things. Five times the duck swung
in not ten feet over the decoys, wings cocked, feet down,
Each time he was not quite satisfied, and climbed back into
the sky in a rush. He circled almost out of sight after the
fifth pass, and we felt sure that the next time, he would keep
right on going. So, as he dropped In again, we s'gd up, swung
ahead of him and pulled the trigger.
It was an easy shot scarcely forty-five yards. The
dog waa ail ready to leave the blind and bring in the bird.
But, somehow, the bird kept right on flying. We fired
again. Still flying. We fired the last shot The drake
never dropped a feather. As we looked down at the dls
' aproving look on eld Barge's face, we recalled the com
ment by Conincioaa (T): "One shot, one duck. Twe shots,
one dock, maybe. Three shots, ae dock at all". .
On Dee. tth and 6th, there will be a pointing dog field
trial at Camp Adair. On Saturday, puppy stakes and amateur
stakes will be run, while on Sunday the veteran dogs take
ever in the Open All Age, with a purse of f 230. Should be
an interesting affair. " -

the 12th official contest for the
Oregon high school champion
ship in the A-l class.
Light Rain Forecast
The weather man predicted
mild temperatures with inter
mittent light rain for tonight
The game was expected to fea
ture lively ground action rather
than aerial fireworks. Both
teams have placed most empha
sis on their strong running at
tacks.
The Rams go into the cham
pionship game with one of the
best records in Oregon prep his'
tory. They claim 287 points this
year to 13 for their opponents.

of seven wins, two defeats and
two ties for a total of 173

a win over the unbeaten but
once tied Estacada Rangers.
Prineviile has won 22 coniecu
tive games. Estacada took
semifinal decision over St
Helens on net yardage after
playing to a 12-12 tie.

won the. six-man crown last
week. .
Sore-Armed Layne Passes
Lions Nearer Pro Crown
Detroit J.FS The Detroit
Lions were game nearer the
National Football League's
Western Division title today
through the efforts of a sore
arm passer and an end who had
been ineffective most of the
sesson.
Quarterback Bobby Layne,
who hadn't thrown a pass In
practice this week because of
a painful arm ailment, con
nected with end Cloyee Box for
a 17-yard touchdown in the
third period to start the Lions
on a comeback that produced a
34-15 Thanksgiving Day vic
tory over the Green Bay pact
ers.
Box, the league's second
h sheet scorer last sesson wim
15 touchdowns in Detroit's
drive to the championship, had
grabbed only one touchdown
pass in nine previous games.
Third Longest Pass
That quick touchdown was
the turning point in the game.
Green Bay, leading 15-7, had
marched to the shadow of the
Detroit goal. But halfback Al
Carmichael fumbled and de
fensive end Jim Cain pounced
on the ball for the Lions.
Layne stepped back and un
loosed a towering pass to Box
who raced untouched to the
end zone. It was the third long
est touchdown psss In NFL
history.
