Walton League of America at their convention in Eugene Saturday,
is ( man sho gets things done.
Especially noted for his efforts in gaining memberships for the
League, it Is our guess that Krell will go all-out to make the Oregon
Waltonians a much bigger group, and he has conservation very close
to his heart. With him at the helm, Ike W'altons in Oregon should

THE STORM BLEW 'EM IN
We've had an interesting Sunday and Monday. On Sunday we
were down river from Salem, watching literally thousands of
mallards pour into the country. The terrific winds really had
the birds down close, and they were lighting in fields by tht
hundreds. One corn field we walked through literally erupted as
the mallards flared up Into the sky . . .
Geese in the Rickreall area seem to still be represented by only
s few birds. We spent some time Sunday morning hunting an
excellent location wilh some SO decoys out, but we saw only two
small bands of geese , . . This coming Saturday is the last day
n local goose hunting, and ve hope that some birds will be on
hand by then ...
FIELD GUNNING FOR MALLARDS
On Monday afternoon we ssl out in a cornfield and called to the
birds. There was no water in. the field, and we had no decoys. Still,
ducks had been feeding on the corn, and we felt sure they could be
enticed within gun range.
"POINT BLANK" IS TOO CLOSE!
They were "amenable to ncrsuasion" as one of our more literate
friends would say. Small flights of birds would dodge in close,
craning their necks to see where the calling duck was.
Trouble was. the birds wanted to sit right down on top of the
blind. Have you ever shot at birds as close as twenty yards? At
that range, they can be missed with surprising ease . .
PORTABLE BLINDS SAVE TIME, TROUBLE
We can't see why more hunters don't make themselves small
chicken wire duck blinds, and thus save themselves all the effort of
riraceine branches, etc.. out into the middle ot tne tieids (Dcsiaes,
the farmers don't like this if they have to remove the branches
when plowing time conies).
We took a niece of woven rhicken wire, some eight febt long,
and attached tn it three Dointed lathe slakes. The thine weighs only
a few pounds, yet it is sturdy enough to stand the weight of the
straw, corn stalks or wnaicver natural maicnm is um-u iu vuvi-i u.
Such a blind can be put up in a matter of minutes, and it is usually
more compact and less visible than brush blinds.
TIPS ON "TIPS"
All sorts of advertising mail come to the desk of an editor. In
all honesty, we glance through it and toss 98 per cent of it in the
waste basket. So when we actually do print some of it, you can
be sure we think it has value for you.
Recently we got a letter from Paul H. Young. Detroit 35. Mich
igan. Young is a rod manufacturer, and he mentions in his letter
that he has plenty of bamboo on hand, and can repair broken rods.
FIRMS SWITCHING TO GLASS
Why Is this Important enough to print? Well, the truth Is that
more and more manufacturers are switching their production
from bamboo to glass rods. Several years ago, you may have
purchased a good bamboo rod from a well-known manufacturer.
Now, If you break a section, you may think that all you have to
do Is send back to the factory for a replacement.
Unfortunately, many of theso firms will say "sorry no more
cane, or cane-working tools. So you re stuck with a rod that you
wouldn't swap for all the glass ones in captivity but your rod is
broken, and you can t get it fixed.
We know of sovi'ral custom rod makers who still make bamboo
rods. But they do not like to repair rods other than those they
have made themselves.
Young is the only one we know about who does a complete, quick
job of complete construction or repair.
HIGH WATER ON THE COAST
As yon may have suspected, coast streams are now way op and
muddy. It Is raining on the coast now, and unless it stops Im
mediately, the streams will not have a chance to get down to
fishing conditions by the weekend. When the water does drop
and clear a bit, you can expect some excellent angling, as good
runs of steelies are now distributed up and down most of too
coastal streams , .

with the standings figured on the
basis of 10 points for first, 9 for

6-0 BATTLE OF LIMES
Tech-Tennessee
Game Said Best
By JACK HAND
NEW YORK W The bristling
defensive battle between Tennes
see and Georgia Tech, won by
Tennessee 6-0, was considered the
outstanding single game perform
ance of the season by the writers
and sportscasters participating in
The Associated Press' annual post
season football survey.
Oklahoma's smashing 40-0 romp
over Notre Dame in full view of
' a national television audience also
drew solid support as did Illinois
J, upset victory over Michigan State
and the triumphs of both Oregon
! State and UCLA over Stanford in
f the Pacific Coast Conference.
i Oklahoma Lauded
For offensive thrills, the wild'
scoring affair at West Point, N.Y.,
i In which Army finally subdued
i Colgate. 55-46. was recalled by
.4 many as an outstanding highlight
1 of the year.
! Oklahoma's comeback against
; Colorado, after trailing 19-6 at the
j end of the half, was another per-
formance cited often by the writ'
ers who co-operated in the sur-
s vey.
; Iowa's feats were reviewed by
several writers, some for Iowa's
, 21-20 victory over Purdue, others
) for the Hawkeyes' shutout of Ohio
State. Another result, remem
J bered by many, was Penn State's
7-6 upset of Ohio State.
Huskies Win Support
Washington's triumph over nil-
' nois and the rugged Michigan-
! Iowa game also drew attention
? The Tennessee-Georgia Tech
i game was cited for its tight de
I tensive play and the unusual num
' ber of punts, 23.
; "The line play was the big
show," read the AP account from
Atlanta. "It has been a long time
since such fierce play and thun
dering tackling has been seen on
Grant Field. Not since a score
less tie against Florida in the
rain in 1953 had a Tech team been
held scoreless.
Indian Defeats Voted
On the West Coast, the two de
feats of Stanford which changed
the entire Rose Bowl picture will
be long remembered. First the 14
13 edge by UCLA and then the
20-19 defeat by Oregon State.
Longest scrimmage run ever
made by a Michigan State player
was a 90-yard sprint by Lynn
Chandnois against Arizona in 1049.

Bv JOE REICHLER
CHICAGO UF) The Chicago
Cubs, who only 24 hours ago were
desperately seeking to strengthen
their catching department, had
two new backstops today after the
purchase of Charlie Silvera from
the New York Yankees and the
acquisition ot Ray Katt in a 10
player trade wilh the St. Louis
Cardinals.
Katt, a .247 hitter who clouted
13 home runs last season, came
first. With him came pitchers Tom
Poholsky and Jackie Collum and
infielder Wally Lammers, who was
immediately shipped to the
Cubs Los Angeles farm club in
the Pacific Coast League.
Two other players, of minor
league caliber, have been prom
ised by the Cardinals no later
than March 1. These players will
be sent to the Yankees along with
$10,000 for Silvera.
In return for the Redbird flock,
the Cubs sent pitchers Sam Jones
and Jim Davis, catcher Hnbie
Landrilh and utility man Eddie
Miksis. Jones, who pitched a no-
hitter against Pittsubrgh May 12,
1955, and Poholsky, who hurled a
22-inning game while with Roches
ter back in 1950, were the biggest
named in the transacttion. Each
had a 9-14 record last year.
thusiastic over the two deals, his
first since he succeede ' Stan Hack
as pilot of the Cubs two months
ago.
Likes Silvern. Katt
"In Silvera and Katt," he said,
"We acquired two catchers who
are better than anybody we had
last season. Silvera would have
been a first-string catcher if he
were on any other club but then
Yankees. Katt has a lot of power
and should find Wriglcy Held to
his liking."
The youthful skipper thought the
exchange of pitchers with the
Cards was a standoff but expected
to get more pitching out of Pohol-

Neil Goldschmidt and Tom
Jones, both 61, will probably draw
the starting guard berths although
Lynn Coon and Dave Coe are
slated for plenty of action.
Junior Bob Bayne might crack
the Saxon starting lineup tonight,
replacing either Jack Scott or Lar
ry Thompson. The rest of the line
up will be the same as the one
that started the first two games.
This includes Dan Moore and Jer

New Tag Trophy at Stake
In Armory Scrap Tonight
A new trophy for the Northwest
tag team championship is at stake
tonight at the Salem Armory in
what should bo a typical boiler
house battle.
The trophy, donated by a Seattle
firm, is twice as big and fancy as
the one that used to change hands
in the circuit and get some rough
treatment.
Current owners are Red Bastien
and Roy Heffernan, who will com
bine their speed and know-how
against "Gentleman" Ed Francis . Robierre.
and Calalina George Drake, two
who can get very rough.
Francis and Drake had to do it
the hard way to get a chance at
the trophy beating the king of
the nasties, Bull Montana, and
Don Kindred last week. This main
event will be two out of three falls.
Bull Montana, the undelicate
one. will meet I-ee Wong in the
semifinal, two falls out of three.
Competing in the opener at 8:30
