k - : : : District 11 -Tourraa &lilS (Mitt ASSOCIATED PRESS Salem, Oregon, Friday, February 26, 1954 Page 9 gOREGONI llSf ::'Apield: LAST WEEK-END FOR STEEL1ES ' ' ' ' Steelhead fishing for the, winter of '53, '54 on' Oregon's coast streams is fast drawing to an end. Coast streams will be closed to angling for two months, beginning March 1. So, if you still have a yen to tangle with a rambunctious sen-run rainbow, better do it this week-end ...-., '.''. Looking back over the season just past, we can't help but feel that the fishing was not up to par. True, many fish were caught, and some were . whoppers. But the . weather was so frequently "liquid" that streams were seldom in fishable condition for more than a few days at a time. And, to further frustrate anglers, these good periods seemed to come in the middle of the week. Most of us, poor wage slaves that we are, could only fish on' week-ends and we can scarcely recall more "lost"' week-ends. ' . A few interesting items did crop up this season. For one thing, the much-lauded cherry bobber seemed to prove itself very conclusively. Fish were taken with it from every coast stream that we got reports from. And, many times the bobber , worked well in murky water, under conditions that usually indicate bait and nothing else. In fact, we would venture a guess that, proportionately, artifical lures of one kind or an other accounted for more fish this year on the coast than any 1 season previously. While spinning gear was still king, this season saw considerably more anglers using longer rods and in a number of cases, spin ning reels were attached 'to1 drift rods. Anglers found that they could control their lures , better with the longer rod, especially when fishing from the bank. A little telephoning this morning provided the following infor mation: Such rivers as the Nescowin, Three Rivers,, Salmon, Nes tucca and Little Nestucca and Beaver creek are in fair condition, and, despite a bit of rain last night, are still dropping. Yesterday, boats drifting the Nestucca took fish, and the river is in better shape today, with the water at about the 3-foot stage. The sky was showing lots of blue this morning, and if the rain stays away, undoubtedly many last-minute anglers will bring home some steelie steaks . , . For a general look at the over-all. picture, examine the game commish's forecast, on this page. . !., CHEMEKETANS TO BE HONORED Salem's Chemeketans, that hardy group of mountain climbers and outdoors lovers, will be guests of honor this coming Wednes day evening, March 3, when the Izaak Walton League, Salem chap ter, holds its social meeting. The Ikes will show a motion picture of the Dinosaur National Monument, that spectacularly beautiful area that is at present endangered by plans to erect a dam at Echo Park, within the Monument boundaries. Many folks are in a quandary as to which is the proper course to allow the construction of the dam, which would supposedly provide for irrigation of 380,000 acres, or to preserve this region as an untouched scenic area. Frankly, if it were only a matter of Dinosaur Monument alone, we might not find too strong an objection. But, as far as the reclamation bureau is concerned, there is no line drawn. Given time, and an apathetic public attitude to aid them, the. recla mation bureau would "reclaim" much of the west. The demands of an increasing population are great the pressures on i.ature are great, and at least a few areas should be perpetuated in their primitive state. Some folks judge progress in terms of dollars and cents expansion, production, modernization, mecha nization. But others, including this writer, feel that to rob this country of its great heritage of ontdoor beauty will be to ren der "progress"' an empty accomplishment. Be that as it may the public is invited to attend the meeting at the IWLA clubhouse at 8 p.m. Wednesday, see the movie; and make up their own minds as to the value of Dinosaur National Monument.

The double elimination strug gle Will run tonight, Saturday, Monday, i Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday (March 6) and Monday, March 8 (finals). If anyone is assigning roles as favorites, one automatically goes to Salem High, perennial cham pion which has run into the state's best Class a competition this season and given all a trou blesome night. The Vikings will open at 8:30 against Sacred Heart, the Capitol league cham pion. Other favorites expected to emerge fronj the first two nights- are Stayton (over Cascade) and Silverton (over Woodburn). The Mt. Angel-North Marion garhe is rated a tossup because they are from different leagues and have not met. ' Losers the first two nights will meet Monday night while winners will get to rest until Tuesday night. The state tourney at Eugene March 16-20 will allow only one entry from each district. . Injured Bevoin Point Lead But Not in Accuracy NEW YORK UP) Bevo Francis of Rio Grande, who probably won't play for several weeks be cause of an ankle injury, still is far out front in the small-college scoring race. But surorise! one of his rivals shows a better per centage for accuracy. Paul Lauritzen of Augustana (III.), a 6-foot 3-inch senior, was hitting 63.5 per of his field-goal attempts through games of Feb. 20, according to statistics re leased Friday by the NCAA Serv ice Bureau. Francis shows a 49.8 average. At the rate he's going Lauritzen will set a record. The current mark on the book is 60.6 set last year by Bob Buis of Carleton. Francis, of course, heads the scorers with 1,046 points. Bob Hop kins of Grambling is second with 876. Rio Grande is the offensive lead er; replacing Arkansas Tech, which led for the past three weeks. Rio has a 94.9 average compared to 49.0 for Tech. Idaho State and Cortland (NY( State both have 56.4 averages on the defense to lead the small col leges in that department. I in the District '. camera someway caught these Mt.

By HAL WOOD SAN FRANCISCO (UP)- Tow ering height and blinding speed are mixed on , the 1954 United Press All-Pacific Coast Conference basketball team announced today. UCLA, the southern division's best team, won two places on the club, while Oregon State, Stanford and -California each drewone spot on the team chosen by United Press with the assistance of the coaches. The height Is provided by the forward wall made up of forwards Johnny Moore, UCLA, (6-5), and Russ Lawler, Stanford (8-6 .1-2), and center Wade (Swede) Hal brook, Oregon State, (7-3). The speed comes from veteran guards Hob Matheny, California (5-11), and Ron Livingston, UCLA (5-10). . Near Unanimous Moore, Halbrook and Matheny were near-unanimous choices for the squad. On the other hand, Law ler barely nosed out big Bob Mc Keen of California, who was great the fore part of the year, but tailed off badly in the last six games due to Injuries and illness; while Livingston was the choice over Bob Garrison of Idaho. Lawler won for more-consistent I performances during the full sea son. He leads the southern division of the loop In scoring with a 17.8 points per game average and 178 total. Hels tied with two others total. He ii tied with two others "Russ is the most improved bas ketball player on the coast," says bis coach, Bob Burnett, "And pos sibly trie most under-rated. Livingston has been the spark plug of the Bruin drive to the pen nant in the southern division, but there were quite a few votes for this boy Garrison. - Bob Garrison or Idaho," said Coach Bill Borcher of Oregon, "Is the best looking sophomore I've seen in years. Unanimous Choice Halbrook, of course, was a unan imous choice. Only a sophomore, he Is one of the finest young bas ketball players in the country. He leads the league in scoring with 297 points and a 21.2 average per game. He also Is tops in field goals on a percentage basis, and on totals; and in rebounds. Matheny is justly called the "old pro" of the intercollegiate ranks. He ran the California offense and defense and did a great job of it. Three to five years older than the rest of the lads, he wasily was the most-polished performer in the PCC during the 1953-54 season. Moore, the other senior on the squad, was the come-through guy on the Bruin team and its top scoring punch. He was the man most closely watched by the oppo sition, but still his club's leading point-getter.
