Above, Bob Brown'i iprlnger, Duke, hu a cap of ; coffee before going afield. Duke ii actualy a poor hunter, - says Bob he fenerally ahoota one bird out of three. By BOB TOP BRING THE DUCKS i The universal question posed by puzzled Willamette Val ley hunters these days is "what's happened to the ducks? Thr, in two answers to the conundrum. One school of thought believe that late blizzard to the Canadian provinces greatly reduced the hatch and survival of ducklings. In ether words, there just aren't as many birds as the optimistic report of Ducks Unlimited Indicated before the opening of season. You ll recall mat a was wint aiirrfnl hatrh In IS The either answer, and one we are Inclined to credit, is that the weather up north has just not been cold enough to m nut tha birds. Yesterday was the coldest day registered in certain part of Canada are told that a week or so or tnis weainer wouia rami in ending the blrde south. Trouble Is, by the time the birds begin to reach Oregon In any quantity, season will be nearly ever. SOME WANT SPLIT SEASON This brings to mind a comment being voiced by more and more wildfowl gunner these day. They feel that a nltt hum, with the latter part extending Into January, would provide a better opportunity to get value received from the old acattergun. Most gunners feel that the widely 1 , publicised "extended season" and larger Dag limits inn winter has meant very little. The first month of season was much too early, and. would have been too early, even If the northern birds had arrived on schedule. Most gunners are less concerned with iarge bag limits than with a season that will permit at least a bit more consistent shooting. Despite the difficulties raised by officials, we think that separate regulations and seasons should be applied to the Eastern Oregon and Willamette Valley flyways. The two bird-routes are entirely different, and to handle them Identically i not the best management of the resource. The hunting public has a high stake in the duck populations. Through Ducks Unlimited, they spend thousands annually to produce the birds. Thus, It behoove the Interested agencies to do everything in their power to provide successful gunning, consistent with sound conservation practices. WAITING FOR THE WATER TO EBB We make no predictions about coast fishing this week-end, ether than to say that you won't find us going coastward till the water has subsided. Early this past week, though, some Salemites did take fiskyOiiefflo consisted of Phil Kerber, Bill Olsen and -Frank Barquisl. .They used, spinning tackle to toss cliit eggs over on" the Salmon river, downriver from Slick RocV Creek. Phil hookecTarid lost two steelies, while Frank also ex perienced a back-handed slap from old Dame Fate. His new glass rod busted when hr set the hook in a husky sea-going rainbow. Wasn't such a hard strike either just k fault In the glass. Bill alone brought home a fish. Frank, of Mc t'awell's Market, smoked the fish, and we had a sample of it Yesterday. Frank must have a "secret process', because the taste of the steelie was really out of this world . . . - . THEN CAME THE MUD ; But getting back to the boys' trip: the water on Salmon river was in good shape until the mud began to pour out of Slick Rock Creek into the river about noon. This is the same abuse we mentioned at length in this space early this year. We had, In blissful ignorance, assumed the situation was improved, but apparently the same or a similar logging operation 1 In progress, with the logs being dragged through the creek bed.

With the important work be hind them, the more than 1,200 baseball men met to tie ud the loose ends and to listen to the annual parting plaudits. The 38 minor leagues that got together for the 52nd an nual convention gave the play. er draft a surprisingly light Drusn on, wrestled to a no-fall decision with television and laid the groundwork for a "bet ter understanding" with the big leagues. However, while there was a noticeable void in "big deals," little deals by the hundreds were pulled off in the hotel lobbies and smoke-filled rooms as players, managers and fran chises were swapped with gay ananaon. The draft got the light treat ment as only 98 players were picked up at a total price of SJ3Z,S50. Last year 128 players were drafted for 1337,100.
