IMg I BOWLING Sport Graphs Silly Hulen ayi: Chinook Horde Makes Progress To Upper Rogue Those big Chinook salmon are slow ly but surely working their way up Rogue river. So far during the an nual spring run In Amercla's finest stream for that kind of angling, most of the fish have been land ed at or below Savage Rapids dam, mostly be low, but reports from Joe Whar ton In Grants Pass say they are moving past the dam and up stream. So from now on, anglers should start miij Rales catching some prizes In the up per stretches, Monday of last week, Wharton re ports, the run was most In evldenco at Robertson bridge, where many were landed. Then, In the middle of the week, the biggest catches were made around Hilton's hopyard. Thursday, they were reported a few miles up the river at Wooldrldge's barge, and lats In the week the best catches were In the neighborhood of We ask u Inn, just below Savage Rapids dam. Although the number of salmon this year seems to be about normal. Wharton reports they are slightly amsller, on the average, thsn usual, running from eight to ten pounds to Just over 30. Last week's fish derby prize winner weighed 30 pounds six ounces; second tipped the scales at 30 pounds four ounces. The laugh la certainly on a goodly number of local grappling tans who stayed home by the fireside Monday night because they figured the week ly presentation of pain and punish ment at the Medford armory wouldn't be so hot.

That Bobby Chick -Red Lyons main event hnd everything, and whst audi ence there was on hand went crazy when the big Joplln Ghost came back from an airplane spin that would turn Brother Dude green with envy, and grabbed two falls from Bobby. The boys were deadly In earnest about the whole business, and the result waa undoubtedly the tougheat, most vlcloualy-fought bout In a long time. It'a too bad there weren't more fans out to see the thing. The middle and opening matches weren't far behind the main event In spectacular fireworks. The Black Secret looks better every trip to the post, and somewhat overlooked In the general feeling of hatred toward him Is the fact that he Is quite a g rap pier. In addition tr being the num ber one bad man of the current grap pling crop. He whipped Tony Gari baldi with two perfectly legitimate maneuvers, a combination hammer lock and back-breaker and a straight bark-breaker. The Floyd Brttt-Lefty Pacer opening squabble wa also far above the average, and all In all It was a plenty sweet card. Left Mike Roll, that southpaw de mon who pitched Crescent City to the southern Oregon league pennant last year, Is apparently starting In right where he left off.

BUY Iw H I S K E Y KID PITCHER WINS FIFTH IN ROW FOR SEATTLE RAINIERS By the Associated Fress fleattle moved from seventh into fifth place In the Pacific Coast baseball league today thanks to a pitching juvenile whose father wouldn't let him go to the major leagues because "the terms weren't right." For the fifth straight time Fred die Hutchinson. 18. and fresh out of high school, cut down the opposi tion. Last night he limited the los Angeles Angels to four hits, two of them In the ninth inning, at Seattle won, 4 to 2. In Seattle the other day Ernie Johnson, representative for a major league team, said: You fellows are laughing because we major league scouts passed up Hutch, But you're wrong. I wore out a new pair of shoes trying to sign the kid, but his dad was too tough for me. I couldn't close a deal." And It wasn't exactly duck soup for Seattle to sign up the pitching marvel. When a representative of the club approached "dad," Dr. J. L. Hutchinson, Seattle physician, he re plied: Sure, Freddie will sign with the Seattle club If the terms are right. Now the first thing we Insist upon Is that the boy share In the sale price if sold to the majors." Seattle agreed, tossed in a $2500 bonus for the lad to sign and he went ahead to win baseball games. He's predicted he will win 20 games this season. Last night he was robbed of a shutout by Jack Rothrock of the Angela who smacked a homer In the ninth Inning with one man on base aftr two were out.
