Tonight Marks First Hoop Clash of Sax and Viks ASSOCIATED PRESS Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., TmP Vf MIsfiT "on Cowgill, Lebanon, takes a duck from III 1IIIIIIVI gparky, Golden Retriever, to win top honors t the field trial of the Willamette Valley Retriever club Sunday at Camp Adair. ' l?it AFIELD ! Ufctt'j6r' By BOB 14 INCH LIMIT ON McKENZIE DROPPED Tentative regulations for the '55 angling season contain one proposed change in the regulations that disturbs us. This is the dropping of the 14-inch limit on trout taken in the McKenzie. TO RESTORE BROOD FISH Three years ago this regulation was put into effect. In prohibit ing the take of trout over 14 inches in length from the McKenzie, It was hoped that these mature brood fish could be retained to Increase the natural propagation in the stream. Many competent authorities feel that hatchery stocking will not be sufficient to keep the river productive. The original McKenzie redside, the chunky, crimson-sided king of Oregon trout, is fast becoming a lost species. It was hoped that the 14-inch limit would give these fish an opportunity to replenish themselves. Now, after only three years, the game commission appar ently has lost confidence in their own conviction. A busload of guides and resort operators from the McKenzie swarmed Into the hearing last week, and from the evidence, it appears that this show of strength swayed the commission's judgment. EXPERIMENT SHOULD BE GIVEN TIME Any test dealing with nature must be given time to develop. From all we can gather, the fish population on the river is in creasing. Resort people are unhappy, because fewer people are fishing the river. They want to remove th "psychological block" the thought that a 14-inch fish cannot be creeled that has reduced fishing, and their incomes. " -' The McKenzie river is not the personal property of guides and resort owners. It belongs to all of us. This program of rehabilitat ing the stream by natural means should go on, and should not be altered by people with a financial bias. NOT ALL GUIDES FAVOR DROPPING REGULATIONS In fairness to the guides, many of whom are as fine sports men and conservationists as you will find, we have it on good authority that a recent survey on the McKenzie reveals that over 75 percent of the guides are in favor of retaining the 14-inch limit. . If this is true, it indicates that, as usual, it is the organized and highly vocal minority that is calling the tune. It is hoped the game commission will reconsider their action and maintain the 14-incli limit on the McKenzie for at least another two years. TOP TRIAL, DESPITE THE WEATHER Had a lot of fun last Sunday attending the first field trial of the year, held at Camp Adair by the Willamette Valley Retriever club. Roy Wallace, in our opinion one of the best professional trainers and handlers on the coast, judged the trial. Despite rain and hail, it was a top trial, contested stiffly all the way through. Here arc the winners: Derby: Allen Bradford, Eugene, with Skip, first. Bob Brown, Salem, with Mick, second. Red Walker, Albany, with King, third. Charles Simmons, Vancouver, with Stitches, fourth. Qualifying: Ernie Budkc, Dayton, with Chief, first. Owen Fritz, Springfield, with Spike, second. Bud Sauer, Sherwood, with Pete, third. Allen Bradford, Eugene, with Dottie, fourth. Open All-Age: Don Cowgill, Lebanon, with Sparky, first. Bud Sauer, Sherwood, with Bones, second. Park Thede, Salem, with Duke, third. Adolph Hraba, Dayton, with Min. fourth. In the evening, the group held their annual banquet and election of officers. Lloyd Milicr of Monroe is the new prexy. Vesta Walker, Albany, remains as secretary. Courtney Johns, Albany, takes over from the writer as treasurer. If a good start is any indication, the Willamette Valley Retriever club has an excellent season ahead, which will find many more valley folk training and using gun dogs. Breakfast Club To Hear Rules Al Lightner, Pacific Coast Conference-hoop official, will headline the Monday morning meeting of the Salem Breakfast Club, and will speak on Basketball, its rules and interpretations. The meeting at the Senator Hotel is scheduled lor 7:30 a.m. and officials have requested all members to bring along a friend.

More than a thousand years ago the Vikings and the Saxons fought in Western Europe. Tonight's game is the first oasKeinaii contest Between the two school's varsities. Earlier in the season the Saxon sophomores beat the Viking soohs and in football the Saxons also came out on top. The game promises to be a thrill er but the Saxons are given a slight edge, mainly on the basis of their season record which includes eight wins and three losses. Starters Revealed Ken Hunt's Vikings have won five games and lost six so far this season. Hunt probably will start Ken Carl at center, Lee Weaver and Bob Tom at the forwards, and Marv Rhine and Marv Strain at the guards. South Salem coach Dick Ballan tyne said he will probably start Bruce Patterson and Phil Burk land at the forwards. Bob Wulf at center, and Bob Foreman and Neal Scheidel at the guards. The Saxons will have a definite advantage in height. Ballantyne also said that forwards Don Zch and Dale Jones, who have looked good in the last few games, will see plenty of action. Half of the gymnasium which seats more than 3000. is for stu dents from the school. The other half, the east, Is for the public. The lower half is reserved. Bob Mctzgcr's South Salem jun ior varsity goes after its eleventh win against one loss in the pre liminary game with North Salem. It will start at 6:45. The North Salem junior varsity, coached by Clay Egelston, also sports an outstanding record of nine wins and one loss, thus prom ising a tight scramble in the "B" department.

Commercial Pilaris &kfi$ 'Swede' Says He'll Complete 0.S.C, Studies Halbrook Talks With Gill, May Miss Duck Series CORVALLIS (UP) Wade (Swede) Halbrook had a confiden tial discussion with Coach Slats Gill yesterday and announced he planned to remain at Oregon State but it seemed doubtful if the seven - foot, three-inch basketball star would play in the crucial Northern Division games with Ore gon tonight and tomorrow night. Halbrook was suspended from the team Tuesday. Reports circu lated yesterday that he was going to join Buchan Bakers, a Seattle independent team composed of former college stars. He had a reservation to fly to Seattle yes terday evening and had received faculty signatures to class with drawal slips. Afterward, Halbrook said he planned to remain at Oregon State but said Gill had not reinstated him on the team. Halbrook told his mother on the telephone yesterday he was out of the Oregon series. But he said later, "Maybe I'll be in Seattle next week." Oregon State meets Washington in Seattle next week. Yesterday was Halbrook's 22nd birthday. He admitted he was tired and missed a class Monday afternoon. As for the Buchan offer, he said he talked to Frank Fidler, coach of the team. "I told him right at the start that eiv:'. - if I din play with his club 1 planned to finish my studies at Oregon State." OSC goes into tonight s game with Oregon at Eugene, with a 4-0 conference mark. Oregon has a 5-1 vallis tomorrow night. Bolt Has Lead At San Diego lexns notches t in First Round; 2nd Place Is 65 SAN DIEGO, Calif. Wl-Tompest- uous Tommy Bolt of Icxas led the way into the second round of the $15,000 San Dieco Open Golf Tournament today on the heels of remarkable round Oi 29-35 64 over the flat, windy Mission Valley Country Club course. Par is 36-36 -72. The journey toward the $2,400 top money remained hazardous, however, for the 34-year-old Hou ston professional, who banged out seven straisht birdies from me opening green on yesterday. One shot back was a stranger to headlines, Paul McGuire of Wichita, Kan. This 26-year-old pro could be tough, and his score of 31-34 65 was remarkable in view of his comparatjve inexperience in tournament play. Four strokes back of Bolt were Art Wall. Doub Ford. Bud Hnl- schcr, Shelley Mayfield and Henry Williams. The prctoumament choice. Gene Littler, had a 36-33 69. He was grouped with eight others, notably National Open king Ed Furgol, Johnny Palmer and Canada's Stan Leonard. Top Contenders In Field Trials QUITMAN, Ga. tfl Dog fan ciers, buoyed by a brilliant per formance from national champion Warhooo Jake, looked forward Fri day to another set of outstanding contenders for the Continental Field Trials Open championship The veteran Jake had lour equally spaced finds Thursday dur ins his two hours on the Dixie Plantation course and ran what some critics called the best race of his life. Jake thus joined Billy Hope and Rumson Farm Haymaker as top contenders for the 60th all - age title. The veteran bird dog, owned by Dr. II. K. I-ongsdorf and handled by hd rarrior, was ap proached only by two surprisingly good females, Willie fords Judy and Indcbux.

The Beavers, .undefeated alter four conference starts, play run- nerup Oregon with the division lead at stake. And whether Hal brook, OSCs top pointmaker, would be in the lineup was as un certain as the Beavers' chances without him. Washington and Washington State, meanwhile, will be battling for third place.

Status In Doubt Halbrook's status was the ques tion mark as the teams prepared for the series opener at Eugene Friday night. The tall center was suspended by Coach Slats Gill Tuesday lor skippine class. Thursday he re ceived an offer to join an AAU team at Seattle. But Gill said after a conference with Halbrook the player had turned down the Seat tle offer and elected to remain in school. However, he did not re quest reinstatement a condition the coach had set to return him to the team, Poor grades kept Halbrook out of OSCs pre-conferencc games and the Beavers wound up with a 4-'i record. With Halbrook back in uniform at the start of the regular, season, OSC won four straight with' the center contributing . GO points to lead the squad. I.ostticoff Is Leader OSC will be facing one of the PCC's top scorers in the two-game series with Oregon.
