Halsey to
Box May 10
The Southern Oregon Boxing
club today announced signing of
two outstanding middleweights
for the club's next offering at the
armory, on May 10.
Headlining the show will be
Wild Bull Halsey, the popular
Portland Negro who has won
two fights here, against Joel Wil
son, middleweight champion of
Oregon and Washington. Halsey
won the southern Oregon-north-e
r n California championship

only boxer to knock Halsey
down in the latter's 58 amateur
fights.
Dick Adkins, the likeable
youngster from Griffin Creek,

Oregon lightweight title when
he goes against Jim Puscas of
Eugene in one of the supporting
matches. Puscas lifted the title
by giving Adkins a whipping in
Roseburg a week ago.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ELEVEN
60,000 Trout Planted
In Rogue River and
Tributaries Recently
Sixty thousand legal-size raliv
bow trout from the Butte Falls
fish hatchery were planted in
the Rogue and its tributaries last
week by state game, commission
agents.
Liberation sites were in stream
sections expected to receive
heavy fishing pressure this sea
son. Release areas included the
upper and middle section of the
Applegate, upper sections of the
Illinois, the Upper Rogue tribu
taries including Butte creek. Lit
tle Butte creek and the Prospect
Union Creek area.
The trout averaged 7Vi inches
in length. The main spring trout
liberation for the Rogue area
was completed in March with
the liberation of 110,000 yearling
rainbow.
Past Spawning Peak
The steelhead have passed
their spawning peak and anglers
will probably take many "ripe"
and "spawned-out" fish in the
next few weeks according to
Cole Rivers, game commission
resident fishery agent.
Rivers urged sportsmen to re
lease these fish carefully and
permit them to escape. One
"ripe" female is the potential
producer of 2,000 steelhead fry.
The "spawned-out" steelhead
are dark, thin and very tasteless
in comparison to a fresh sea-run
fish, continued Rivers. If re
turned to the stream, these fish
will continue their journey back
to the sea and return the follow
ing winter as bright, healthy
fish.
Cold Water Blamed
A game commission study
conducted on the lower Umpqua
river revealed that as much as
39 per cent of the steelhead
catch consisted of fish that had
spawned previously. The late
spawning this year is attributed
to cold water accompanying the
late spring.
Up to April 27 only 25 Chinook
salmon had been counted
through the fish ladder at Gold
Ray dam. The first salmon show
ing at the counting station were
about two weeks later than nor
mal in arriving. Until the water
warms up, no heavy movement
of salmon over the dam is ex
pected, Rivers said.

mer when two of the top local

tival held at Eugene.
