ANGLING IS BEST
IN CRATER LAKE,
EXPERT STATES
CRATER LAKE (Spl.) Crater lake
offers the best angling found In any
national park In the United States,
stated David H. Madsen. superinten
dent of fish resources of the national
park service, when a visitor here this
week.
Mr, Madsen based his statement on
a close study of fishing conditions in
the different parks covering the past
several years. Having been abund
antly stocked with rainbow trout.
Crater lake offers little difficulty to
anglers in catching their limits of 12
per person per day, a fact which he
said Is not duplicated elsewhere. He
was particularly Impressed by the
prime condition or the trout, their
average size of 18 to 20 inches and
the comparative ease with which they
are caught. .He made a number of
good catches while In the park.-
A number of years ago It waa be
lieved the lake possessed little or no
food and as an experiment freshwater
shrimp were planted to encourage
food values. Later research, however,
revealed that shrimp' play only a
small part in fish nourishment, which
Is furnished mainly by lnsecta and
small freshwater life.
Stocked with 100,000 to 200.000 fln
gerllngs annualLly over a period of
10 years, the lake has become so
abundan with fish. Mr. Madsen
pointed out. thav additional heavy
plantings are not necessary. As a re
sult this year only 50,000 fingerllngs
were planted In the lake by park
rangers directed by Chief Ranger J.
Carlisle Crouch.
Mr. Madsen Is enthusiastic over the
double thrill oi tingling in Crater
lake. He Is Impressed by the Innate
beauty of the precipitous crater walls
rising out of blue depths, offering an
almost unreal setting for an angling
trip an experience found only In
fishing In the water-filled crater oi
an extinct volcano. Admiration of
this volcanic born scenery la almost
on a par with the thrill of landing a
big one while fishing along the bases
of crater walls, Mr. Madsen said.

Communications
Why Change Horses?
To the Editor:
Allow me to congratulate you on
your splendid editorial in the Mall
Tribune of Spt. 30, 1936, "Let's Have
the Facts."
I am one of that vast multitude
known as the working class. For thla
I make no apology. In fact I'm rather
proud of it.
Bjing of this class, I believe we are
entitled to know Just what Mr. Lan-
don, Mr. Kiux et al have to offer in
case they are chosen, heaven forbid,
to replace a man who really has tried
to help us, Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Mr. Knox tells us if we get a poor
piece of land, give it up and go grab
another. Oh, yeah I
If you are hungry go out and run
down a duck. Oh, yeah, again!
If you need work go out and make
a Job. etc,, etc.
Now Just where would we land If
we were to follow the esteemed Mr,
Knox's advice? Does he advocate vio
lation of laws? And is that all he and
Mr. Landon have to offer?
Who will Jeny that our President,
in trying to correct the terrible con
dition In which wo were In Just prior
to his election has not made mis
takes?
Isn't it the most colossal mistake
of all not to try?
Just what does all their childish
prattlo moan?
Air. Hamilton tons us that ,f we
elect Mr, Landon the two huge pro
Jecta on the Columbia river will be
completed. And that Mr. Landon can
administer tho affairs of these pro
Jecta better and President Roosevelt
can. More prattle. Mr. Knox says
worthy projects will be com Die ted
unoer Mr. Landon. Just what pro
jects do they consider as being
worthy 7
I think we tax payers and workers
are entitled to know these Important
facta. We do rnow these projects, and
many others, will be completed under

A Traglo Epitaph
To the Editor:
Edith Barry, the O. 8. C. student
killed Saturday night at Jackson Hot
Springs, was one of the "worthy"
girls selected by the trustoes of the
Daly trust of Like county to receive
Its benefits. She came to Corvallls
in "33. several years older than the
freshman generally Is. being then 30
years old. She had quite a struggle
for her education and felt keenly the
desire to be numbered among those
who measure up to the purpose for
which the trust was created by Dr.
Daly.
Edith was the oldest child of the
large family of Nick Barry. She and
work were old acquaintances. Iong
