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.

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

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.
