Newspaper clippings the only ;uurce of records show that 12 persons have already lost their lives through drowning in the past two months while fish ing on Oregon's lakes and streams, the commission point ed out. Six of these tragedies occur red on streams when persons either slipped from moss covered rocks or ventured too far and were swept into deep holes by strong river currents. The other six drownings were from boating accidents, two of which occur red on swift moving rivers, and the remaining four from capsiz ed boats on high mountain lakes. The game commissioned re minds sportsmen that at this time of year streams are high, running with tremendous speed and force. In addition, rocks on the stream bottom are slick with moss or other algal growth which makes wading extremely hazardous. Under such condi tions, wading is next to impos sible, or at best a precarious un dertaking. Boatmen on lakes and reser voirs were also cautioned to watch the weather constantly. Sudden spring storms and squalls can arise almost without warning. Navigation in bad wea ther is difficult .and swamping of the boat often occurs.

WHY PAY MORE? FOR REPRINTS 5c PENN YWISE 323 EAST MAIN the following code for water safety. 1. Avoid wading in swift cur rent if the water is more than knee deep, particularly if wear ing boots or waders. If crossing a fast stream, carrying a long stiff pole as a safety aid. 2. Avoid overloading any boat. Rowboats 14 feet long or less should never carry more than three people. 3. Never stand up in a boat. 4 When boating on a large stream, avoid swift riffles and whirlpools. 5. When fishing from a small craft on a lake, head for the nearest snore line immediately if the wind stars to blow. Check the skyline and wind behavior often and systematically and head for the nearest shore be fore a squall hits. 6. Never go out in a boat un less it is capable of floating when capsized, and don't leave without a life preserver for every person aboard. Put them on immediately at the first sign of danger. 7. ' If a boat capsizes, always try to catch hold of the boat and stay with it until help ar rives. 8. Never wear boots or waders when riding in a boat. 9. Avoid showing off with mo tor boats. Don't make sharp turns at high speed or pass oth er boats without proper clear ance. 10. If caught in a storm on open water, run the motor at slow speed and angle across the waves. Sit in the bottom of the boat for maximum stability. Beaver Rowing Awards Received By Mohr, Brown Oregon State College Carl E. Mohr and Darrel R.

Twenty to SO riders from southern Oregon and northern California are expected to com pete, according to Jack "White of White's cycle shop.

The English-style race is to begin at 1 p.m. at a starting point about two miles west of Ruch. Signs will mark the way to the starting spot for both contest ants and spectators. The race will be over a pre determined course but over a route unknown to the riders as they depart from the starting line. Riders will be cleared through a number of . check points. A number of girls have been assigned the checking duties. White said Indications point to a large turnout of spectators for the chase. A soft drink con cession will operate at the start ing site. Lithians, Cheney Colts Collide Sunday in Rogue Valley League; Eagle Point Vies at Camp White Eldon Durham, former St. Mary's high school athletic men tor, may be 'on the hill for the Ashland Lithians Sunday when they tackle the Cheney Colts at the fairgrounds in a Rogue Val ley League semi-pro baseball scramble. Durham entered the Army in 1954 after tutoring at St. Mary's and played ball at Fort Ord, Calif. He is now out of the serv ice. The Colts will be trying for their second win of the season over Ashland in the 2 p.m. scrape. C h e n e y's combination polished off the Lithians 12 to 1 in an early fracas but the mix was not a league affair. Both clubs have gained a number of new players since the first meet ing, v There will be action elsewhere in the RVL on Sunday. Glendale will try to hang onto its un marred status as host to Cave Junction. Grants Pass goes to Butte Falls and is favored to hang onto second place. Eagle Point goes to Camp White. One of the latter two teams will post its first victory and the loser will be lone occupant of the cellar. Three Teams Tied Winner of the Ashland-Colts meeting will retain at least a share of third place and could get a tie for second. Ashland the Colts and Cave Junction are now deadlocked for third. Retail sales of automotive items in the United States now top $41,000,000 annually. In 1941 they totalled $12,300,000. Phil Sword, a grad of Ashland high, may be on the receiving end of Durham's pitches. Jerry Montgomery, ex - Talent high, may be at first base with Howard Gang at second. Pete Cotton, from Ashland high, is the pos sible third baseman with Pat Dugan, ex-St. Mary's at short stop. Outfielders may be Loyal Green, Pete Berg and Tim Du gan, brother of Pat. Kay Kelley, Linfield college jayvee player and ex-Crater high, or Duane Sides, ex-Medford high may pitch for the Colts with Jim Taylor possibly doing the catching. Bahama Fights Turner Tonight New York (U.R) Yama Ba hama from the island of Bimini has 22 straight victories but he seeks a middleweight rating to night in his TV-radio NBC fight with ex-contender Gil Turner at Madison Square Garden. It should be an exciting 10 rounder because Yama from the Bahamas is speedy, smart and ambitious at 23; and fiery Turner of Philadelphia, 25, never has turned in a bad fight. In brisk wagering, Yama Is favored at 7-5 to win his first Garden main event although he is facing a more experienced opponent, who has been battling standouts in the welterweight and middleweight divisions for the past five years. fsaum 3 lyj U fl 0 y Sk MILD MELLOW MAGNIFICENT $450 415 QT. 6 yrs. eld Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 86 proof WORTHY OF A GREAT NAMI Canada Dry Singer Me, he.
