Height of Dam
Raised by People
of Hines, Burns
Portland Delintment lake
at the southern end of the Och
oco National forest in northern
Harney county has been given a
new lease on life as a result of a
cooperative project recently
completed.
The townspeople of Hines and
Burns, the Hines Lumber com
pany, the Izaak Walton league
chapter at Burns, and the local
Girl Scout organization, with the
assistance of the United States
Forest Service, combined their
efforts to successfully complete
one of the most outstanding co
operative projects of its kind
ever undertaken in this state.
The project, involving raising
the height of the dam at Delint
ment lake, was commenced on
July 3 and completed on July 12.
Some 6,000 yards of dirt were
added to the old dam to raise
the height approximately eight
feet.
Purpose of the operation was
to create a greater water area
and depth in Delintment lake in
an attempt to overcome the ser
ious winter-kill problem at the
lake. In prolonged, severe win
ters, the fish suffocate under the
Ice and snow cover through lack
of oxygen. It is hoped that the
greater volume of water will
provide sufficient oxygen to en
able the fish to ' survive the
winters.
The total cost of the project
was slightly over $547.00. most
of whicn was fuel and food. All
money was obtained by public
subscription and donation.
Delintment lake is a phenom
enally productive body of water,
although relatively small in size.
If the project is successful In
eliminating winter kill, the lake
will prove to be an even more
popular fishing spot than it is at
the present. Game Commission
officials said.
Football Clinic
Here on Tuesday
An Oregon School Activities
association football clinic will be
conducted at Medford senior
high school on Wednesday, Aug
ust 19, at 8 p. m.

setter with Arizona State of
Tempe, were revealed yesterday
as the culprits in the 1953 action
of the policy making council to
enforce the NCAA athletic code.
Arizona State, least prominent
of the trio, was handed the stiff
en penalty, two years probation
and banishment of athletes and
teams in all sports from national
tournament for the next school
year.
Notre Dame Objects
Notre Dame and Michigan
State were subjected only to
written rebuke, but NCAA of
ficials believed that the publicity
of their cases would cause them
the greatest anguish.
Objections were forthcoming
almost immediately from Notre
Dame, where vice-president Rev.
Edmund P. Joyce said the NCAA
could have "more profitably"
dealt with "many areas of really
serious abuses" at other schools.
The penalty was levied
against Arizona State for pay
ment to athletes for participation
in sports, for tryouts of athletes,
and for actions of the Sun Angel
Foundation, an alumni group in
the Phoenix area which from
1949 through 1952 contributed
approximately $79,60O-to the col
lege,
Arizona State agreed to abide
by the NCAA ruling. But the
school's president, Grady Gam
mage, said the college feels the
matter on which the association
based its decision was submitted
by "prejudiced sources."
Gammage complained of not
having an opportunity to con
front witnesses. He admitted in
fractions of regulations and said
the college has put its house in
order and will see that it stays
that way.
Notre Dame was reprimanded
for trying out athletes and Mich
igan State for tryouts and re
ceiving funds from an outside
source.
Sage Grouse Hunt
Opens August 22
Portland Oregon's first gen
eral hunting season of 1953 is
due to get under way August
22. Running concurrently with
the limited antelope hunt, the
sage grouse season will extend
from August 22 to 27.
Though the bag limit has been
lowered from last year and the
length of the season decreased,
hunters will be able to pursue
the large-sized grouse over a
larger area than in 1952.
The bag limit for this year Is
two birds per day and not over
four during the entire season or
in possession.
Open area includes all of Har
ney county and that portion "of
Malheur county south of U. S.
Highway 20. Portions of Lake,
Crook, and Deschutes counties
are also opened.
Hunters should consult the
hunting synopsis for descriptions
of the open areas of these three
counties.

Bill Wall, didn't participate in
trick riding, and therefore, did
not gain an overall rating. He

species apparently were hard hit
by frosts and blizzards of May
10-11, again by abnormally
heavy precipitation In June. The
mallards appear to have enjoyed
greater renesting success.
Pointing out that Manitoba
production this year appears to
be spotty, chiefly because of
flood conditions, the "Duckologi
cal" tempered its findings with
'late broods appearing now
promise a slight improvement'
Admitting that successful re
nesting probably will mean an
ample supply of birds this fall,
Cartwright warned that there
will be a lot of immature birds
barely on the wing when shoot
ing seasons open in western Can
ada. He concluded, "Hunting
success, as ever, will depend on
the type of migration dictated
by weather conditions of the
October 1-November 15 period."

New York (U.R The fight

recognition by

In their Sept,
24 title fight
Marclano's
chlllintt record
Oscar rralsy 0f39kayoesin
44 bouts would seem to merit
the heavyweight accolade with
out question. Yet there is a per
sistent insinuation that the
Rock hasn't beaten "anybody."
One of the most outspoken
concerning the shaky claim Mar
ciano has to ring greatness is
Dumb Dan Morgan, the loquac
ious ancient, who led Jack Brit
ton to the welterweight crown.
Lucky Punch
"He is," snorts Morgan, "a
pot luck hitter a lucky punch
er. I think that LaStarza will
beat him and only if Marciano
knocks him out will I .admit
that he has a right to be classi
fied with the great heavy
weights." Dumb Dan, so called in fight
mob jargon because of his mara
thon linguistic ability, has a sur
prising amount of support.' And
when you scan Marciano's rec
ord, it is understandable.
The Rock's victims since he
has strolled up to the doorway
of greatness included a wash-un
Joe Louis, an even more scrub
bed Lee Savold, a chopping
block named Gino Buonvino, un
willing Bernie Reynolds, an ov
erstuffed light heavyweight
named Harry Matthews, a lucky
desperation one shot win over
ancient Jersey Joe Walcott
and that return shot "victory"
over old Joe.
Rock Can Hit
That last one can be discount
ed. It will go into the books as
a testimonial to the Rocks pun
ching power but inside he must
have been as surprised as any
one else. Actually, it was a pain
less payday for the old gent step
ping down.
You also can understand the
respect for LaStarza, even
though his record is not one to
startle John L. Sullivan. For
the fact remains that Marciano
has been ducking rollicking Rol
lie even since their split decision
bout in March, 1930. It was
painfully close and the hesita
tion to acclaim Merciano, in
Morgan's case, stems from the
theory that Marciano actually
hasn't become a better fighter
Dillinger Holds
Coast Bat Lead
With .344 Mark
San Francisco (U.R) Bob
Dillinger, Sacramento infielder,
tacked three points onto his bat
ting average last week and now
leads the Pacific Coast league
hitters for the third consecutive
week. His mark is .344-14 points
ahead of second-place Artie Wil
son of Seattle, who is second
among the regulars.
Fred Richards, Los Angeles
first baseman, leads in hits with
183; and Dale Long, Hollywood
first sacker, is tops in runs-bat-ted-in
with 97 and in home runs
with 27.
George O'Donnell. Hollywood
hurler, tops the pitchers with a
17-7 record for a .708 percent
age. Allen Gettel, Oakland,
leads in victories with 21; and
in strikeouts with 124.
