L, Nob lit, who has been vacationing in Kouthern California and Arizona for tho past two months, reveals he is now in Thermal, Calif., still nursing his desire to return to .Med ford in time for tho spring fishing. "We are now stopping in tho Conchella valley in southern Cali fornia,' reads tho letter, ''and the most interesting point in this vi cinity from the sportsman's view is tho Salton sea, as it provides dut'k shooting, boating, swimming and fishing of a kind. The sea is of comparatively recent origin, being formed in 1903 by flood waters of tho Colorado river, which had broken through a poorly constructed Irrigation In take. "Tho area is. approximately 40 mites long by 0 miles wide and the water is quite salty, accord ing to report it has twice the Mitlinlty of tho ocean. leathers greatly appreciate the added buoy anev afforded by the salt water and no doubt it is an advantage, but one swimmer calmly told me that he floated with such ease that ha frequently fell asleep in the water. You can use your own judgment about that one. "Ducks are numerous," the let ter continues, "and many duel: clubs have been established. Some are private clubs, but the ma jority are operated for profit. No feed grows in or around the sea and it is customary for clubs to pump fresh well water into ponds fed with grain regularly to attract tho birds. The charges range' from $8 to $35 per day for each shooter and include the use of a blind and decoys. The highest rate seems to be a spec ial price for motion picture actors who demand hot meals served in the blinds. "Hunters with whom I have talked, report a fairly successful season and at the present time, there are thousands of ducks to be seen. Sprigs appear the prin cipal variety with a Mprinkllng of ennvasbacks, widgeon and blue bills. Only a few ceese are ln evidence nnd at no time are they plentiful. Motor boat racing i no nil In r nnd some excellent time has been made. Again the claim Is set forth that the unusual buoy ancv of the wnter is a great help in attaining high speeds with the modern motor boat. "The sea contains quantities of mullet," Mr. Xoblit, writes in con clusion. "They do not amount to much as a game fish, but re cently an attempt was made to plant striped bass. This is a well known salt water game fish of the California coast and hopes are entertained that It will do well in this Inland sea." Reports from the state game commission show that antelope havo increased steadily in ,Ialie and Harney counties and it is now conservatively estimated that there are between 20,000 nnd 30, 000 of this little game creature in Oregon. It Is altogether likely that within the next few years the Increase will justify a short open season, to be provided as soon as the increase will permit. The commission also reports that elk have shown steady Rom in Oregon nnd it is thought they are numbered by the thdusands in the state at the present time, es pecially in eastern Oregon, where short open seasons are under con sideration.

UPt A new 'wonder who threatens to sur pass the record-brenking scoring feat of Purdue's famous "Stretch" M u rphy has a p pea red on tho Western conference basketball horizon. He is Joe Reiff, a Fix-foot-two North western university sopho more who in his first two games, dazzled both opponents and his coach, "'Dutch" Lonherg with hif William Tell marksmanship. Reiff tossed in five field goals in his first game against Bradley college. He added two free throws. In the seennd gnme, nttainst Notre SPORTS - tAla,nefJl - Robby Jones and Rig T.ill Til den, both, bowing themselves out of the competitive sports picture into the motion pictures for 1031, leave a record of strange contrast though each rose to the very pin nacle of achievement and fame in the performance of their spec ialties. . Tilden was a world's champion tennis player before Jones cap tured his first national golf title. Rig Rill Is nine years older than Robby, but their chief accom plishments were spread through the same decade, the period of 1920-30 that has been the glamor ous and clamorous era of Ameri can sport. ' Jones was n golf prodigy from the outset, gifted with doing the right thing naturally, but with aj temperament that needed to be readjusted. Tilden just fair asj a schoolhoy performer, but was blessed with an unquenchable will to win" from boyhood and; sufficient persistence to master j Alexander nnd McManus. Stone the stroking technique of tennis byjwas the only outfielder above the prolonged practice. Tilden. as al-300 mark while Km and John result, was 27 when he won the son barely reached .275. national pinnies for the first time, Jones just 21 when he captured his first national open. Jones has quit competition at tho very zenith of his powers, with all the. world's major titles in his possession. Tilden hns finally stepped out after many a stormy episode and after having passed the peak of his ability by a margin of at least three or four years. It would have been bigger "news" if Tilden had quit ama teur tennis when he made his last great stnnd In defense of the Davis Cup in 1927. As a matter ; of fact, I believe Rig Hill was persuaded not solely through per-j sonnl desire to help bring the fa-i mous tennis trophy back from France. Tilden loved a pood i tennlH fight, and tho French wore uble to accommodate him. In the last few years Tilden has been able to muster only flashes of the form that made him a world's champion from 1920 thru 192.1. Ho ndtnttted once himself that the old 'will to win" was slipping n trifle. Ro M"cMillln'8 hair is graying, but the one-time All-American quarterback and field leader of the famous Fraying Colonels of Centre College still can weave mean hip or pluck a pass out of the air on the run.

My erstwhile colleague. Mr. Ri'liin Hell, has always contended that the story of Mr. McMlllin's first game Hu.ilnst Hnrvatd wasj one of the cla.sic of football.

The new comer has been sinking baskets in this fashion for three years around Chicago. In 1928 and '21 he led Crane Tech of the city to city championships. Not only is he a good shot from all angles, Reiff also is n fine floor player, defensively and of fensively. He started at center but Lonherg later shifted him to forward. Ruiff weighs 1GT, pounds. SLANTS Goull - - If the high-scoring sprees In National league hockey arenas continue, the boys may be accused of using a "lively puck," since the material useil comes from the same firm as the f'lively baseball." Speaking of outfields, Bucky Harris, boss of the Tigers, has dis posed of all of the famous Tiger sluggers who made a habit of bringing American league batting championships to Detroit. Harris succeeded the greatest of them all as manager, Ty Cobb. He sold Harry Heilmann, four-time champion, to tho Cincinnati Reds. Hnrry Manush, who led the league In 1926, went to St. Louis and later to Washington. Rob Fothergill, th6 roly-poly slugger, was sent to tho White Sox last season. Harry Rice, who went to Detroit in the Manush deal, was traded to New York. Tho heaviest hitting Tigers of 1930 were infielders.

The Indians will be greeted by a delegation of high school stu dents, and there will be a rally. It will he the first meeting for tho two schools on the basketball floor, though they have tangled, four times on the gridiron.

Chemawa has a left-handed player who, if able to get into tho games, will probably be a thorn In the sido of the Burgherltes. Tho locals have never gone up against a southpaw. A southpaw has a puzzling style. The Redskins aro good passers and tireless runners. They never stop trying. Two years ago, at the state tournament, they failed to win a game, but wero popular wtih the crowds and also produced a battle. The Medford team Is In the best physical condition of tho year and the kids have regained their shoot ing, getting so they can plunk in fouls and baskets from around the foul line. Coach Ray 'Henderson of the Junior high school will take the Junior high basketeers under his wing and depart for Salem to night, where they will ' play the Parrish Junior high two games, starting Friday night.
