MID COAST LAKES Olalla Reservoir has been stocked with about 100 surplus summer steel- head from the Siletz Falls trap, this season. These fish get fairly active in the lake and offer a unique fishing experience. Once in the lake they are considered “trout” and do not require a Combined Angling Tag. Anglers are reminded, however, that only one trout per day over 20 inches may be retained, and these fish will almost all be in that size range. Mid Coast lakes been stocked with trout through- out the spring. Trout stock- ing is over until the fall but there still should be fish around to catch. Water temps are great and fish should be hungry, so go catch them. SHS VOLLEYBALL AT B ROOKINGS 6:30 P . M . • SEPT. 15 MHS FOOTBALL AT A LSEA 7 P . M . SHS FOOTBALL AT N EWPORT 7 P . M .

As long as we can do that, S AILORS we’ll continue to make progress and compete.” Siuslaw’s offense, which was blanked by the Falcons, showed marked improvement against the Billies, leading 6-0 and 12-6 in the first quarter before narrowly falling behind 13-12 following an 18-yard touch- down reception in the second quarter.
