Streams Stocked in Preparation
For Start of Rogue Trout Season
Boxers Selected
For Fame Hall
Los Angeles (U.R) Four
famous fighters, three of them
now living in this area, have
been seleced for the Helms box
ing hall of fame.
Named yesterday were Tom
Sharkey, Irish-born heavy
weight; Jack Root, Australian
born light-heavyweight; bantam
weight Bud Taylor and flyweight
Fidel La Barba.
All are living except Sharkey.
A "reminder" that all streams
in the Rogue river watershed
will be open to trout angling
next Saturday, April 28, has been
issued by Cole Rivers, Grants
Pass, Game Commission area
fish biologist.
Fish lake, Willow Creek res
ervoir and Squaw lake will op
en with the regular season, but
all other lakes and reservoirs in
the Cascade mountains will not
open until May 26.
In preparation for the open
ing date, the Oregon Game com
mission has planted 50,000 legal
sized rainbow in all favorite wa
ters throughout the watershed,
Rivers reported. The fish were
raised at the Butte Falls Hatch
ery and they averaged seven
inches in length at the time of
release. The stocking operations
were completed oi April 17 so
most of the planted fish can be
expected to be well scattered by
the opening date.
Water. Tempting
The streams receiving fish
were the Applegate river from
Star Ranger station to the Cali
fornia line, Carberry creek and
its forks, Big Butte creek, North
Fork of Little Butte and the
main channel of Little Butte be
tween Brownsboro and Lake
Creek, west and east forks of Ev
ans creek and the main creek
below the forks. Sucker creek
and the main Rogue river from
Laurelhurst (Peyton) bridge
near Prospect to Robertson
bridge below Grants Pass. Squaw
lake was also given its annual
stocking of these rainbow.
Waters of the Rogue system
look as tempting to an angler
as they have for many years,
cording to Rivers. He said
streams are higher than usual,
but they are in good color in
spite of snow run-off. A few
streams are being muddied up
from time to time by mining and
unorderly logging, he stated.
A news release will be issued
later this week by the game
commission giving a detailed
listing of stream, lake and road
conditions.

Verdict Won
By Fullmer
Cleveland, Ohio (U.R) Seventh-ranked
middleweight con
tender Gene Fullmer of West
Jordan, Utah, earned a crack at
European champion Charles Hu

punching his way to a unani

Ralph Jones of Yonkers, N.Y.
Matchmaker Billy Brown of
Madison Square Garden watch
ed the TV fight along with 2,500
enthralled fans in Public Audi
torium, a contract for a Humez
fight in his pocket.
Jones pushed the fight to Full
mer continually and punished
the winning copper miner with
cutting jabs to the head. But
Jones took at least two solid
ones for every punch he threw.
That Fullmer's attack didn't faze
the fifth-ranked New Yorker
puzzled a thrilled house, which
began enthusiastic applause
halfway through the final round.
Fullmer, 160 pounds, tired
steadily in the ninth and 10th
rounds, and was hanging on with
both arms when the final gong
sounded.
The winner of the May 25 Hu-mez-Fullmer
fight in the Garden
is expected to have first crack
at the winner of the Ray Robin-son-Bobo
Olson bout next month.

Detroit '(U.R) The Detroit

campaign trace directly to the
inability of Al Kaline and Har

plate.
Kaline, A.L. batting cham

in 10 trips to the plate through
while Kuenn, a .300 hitter in
each of his first three big league

Detroit pitching has been air
tight, but with the two key men
not hitting, the Tigers have
dropped successive 2-1, 4-1 and

Rl VETLESS BRAKE LINING;
One of Most Interesting Things
About Baseball Is The Ball Itself
New York With another ma
jor league season on hand, one
of the most exciting things about
the great game of baseball, re
mains the baseball itself.
A championship team like the
Brooklyn Dodgers used more
baseballs last season than the
entire National League did in
its first year in 1876 well over
a thousand dozen.
The yarn from one year's pro
duction of Spalding baseballs
the only ones ever used in both
major leagues would, if wound
around the four bases without
overlapping, create a fence three
miles high.
The original 1876 baseball
was the same size as its de
scendant of 80 years later, with
a circumference of 9 to 914
inches. Stitching on the ball of
that period, however, was flatter
and went around the ball only
about 75 per cent of the way, not
all the way as now. Weight of
the Spalding and Reach major
league balls, both produced by
Spalding, is 5 to 5 V4 ounces
Replicas of the first baseballs
made in 1876 were scheduled
to be thrown out by dignitaries
at the 1956 major league open
ing games.
When Albert Goodwill Spald
ing manufactured the first Na
tional League ball eighty years
ago, he was manager, captain
and pitcher of the Chicago team
which took the league champion
ship. He also won 47 games.
Content About Same
Pitchers threw underhanded
in those days and the ball did
not differ much in basic ele
ment content from the ball of
today. It then had a solid rub
ber center, wool cord wind, cot
ton cord finish and leather cover.
The cover, however, had 360
single stitches, instead of to
day's 108 double stitches.
It takes the hide of more than
11,000 horses each year to sup
ply the covers for the more than
million baseballs made annually
by Spalding.
Before each game of the early
World Series in baseball, an um
pire was handed two baseballs.
Now it's up to 60.
Before Spalding standardized
the baseballs there were all
kinds of experiments. A chap in
Boston invented a baseball
which actually sounded a gong
when it was hit by a bat or
caught by a player. A circular
hollow bell, furnished with a
clapper, was used as a center.
Then the yarn was wound
around it. ,A double play sound
ed like an alarm clock factory.
And, in the old days, hen
the home team had the choice
of the ball and there was no uni
form size, weight and structure,
canny managers would use
either a "dead" ball or a "fast"
ball depending upon their type
of team. It's different now.
