Southern Oregon
By MEL
cJ"o the angler or hiker who
war. to get "away-back"
southern Oreeon offers some of
the best of the primitive back
country. This country is so easily
accessible and so beautiful that
it is a wonder that more people
do not know about it and avail
themselves of it.
During the summer when most
of our streams and lakes are so
crowded that you have to bring
your own rock there lies, close
by, trails on which you probably
won't meet a soul all day and
lakes that you can fish alone.
By way of orientation, we here
in the south end of the state are
at the terminal point of the Pa
cify Crest trail. This trail trav
erse the very top of the Cascade
attains and has its beginning

The Golden Hawk
For handling and for hustle, the bril
liant new Golden Hawk with exclusive
built-in Supercharger stacks up
against any sports car on the road. And
there'sireom and comfort for the whole
REES
it passes. It is a trail that me
anders from lake to lake, some
series of which many times al
most join but not quite.
Breathtaking Scenery
It is a long trail, as long as the
state, and will vie with any part
of the world for scenery. Breath
taking scenes of the Three Sis
ters, Mt. Jefferson, Three Fin
gered Jack and our own Mt. Mc
Loughlin line the way.
It has well stocked lakes,
many of them planted by plane
and wildlife is abundant in some
sections. I recently saw some
pictures of a tremendous herd of
elk feeding in a grassy glade.
These great animals were so
tame the photographers were
able to get within 100 yards of
them for their pictures.
While the trail is long, the ac
cess points are many, for it
crosses or winds near many of
our mountain passes and lakes
which are reached by road. One
such is Elk lake to the west of
LaPine (south of Bend). Pack an
imals are available here or the
rugged sort can do his own pack
ing for the 12 miles it takes to
get into primitive country. Many
parties hire two or three horses
to carry the gear and walk. The
basin, which is reached from this
jump-off point, is full of lakes
that yield marvelous fishing.
Union Creek Trail
South of Union creek is a trail
that leads back into the high
country. Men who have taken
this trip many times say that the
hike is only about eight miles
and the fishing here is excellent.
Another trail takes off som lit
tle distance from Rocky Point
on Klamath lake and here it is
only about three miles from the
end of the automobile road to
the Pacific Crest trail. This lat
ter section lies directly north of
McLoughlin and the lakes here
are so close together that six of
them can be reached in less than
two miles.
Maps of all this country are
available from the forest service
and local inquiry will furnish
the information as to the kind of
fishing to expect and the best
time to go. As most of these
areas are high, it should be well
into the last of June or July be
fore undertaking it although
some of the "can hardly waits"
get there real early sometimes.
Special attention to good hik
ing boots and warm clothing
should be given for the evenings
and mornings can be on the oth
er side of the crimpy side. A
good sleeping bar or robe is a
must unless you are one of those
who can roll up in a blanket by
a small fire and get by I can't!
Light Rod Ideal
A light rod of the.combination
type is ideal. It will serve well
for fly fishing and do equally
well with a light spinning reel.
Spinning tackle is a must for
some likely looking places are
sometimes hard to reach with
out it.
Flies usually run about the
same, i.e., black gnat, mosquito
(a must) and anything in the
darker greys. Spinning lures
should be in the 16 ounce class
with any type of flash bait pro
ducing along with weighted spin
ners such as the nip, hep or
moto.
If you are looking for some
new adventure this summer and
don't want to roam too far from
home, this is a good tip. You will
find the lure of it is so strong
once you have been up there
that it will probably get feature
billing on your summer's plans
from now on.

Red Sox Play
Series With
SF Seal Nine
By HAL WOOD
San Francisco (U.R) Right
in the middle of the dispute over
whether the Pacific Coast should
or should not have major league
baseball, the Boston Red Sox
come to San Francisco Friday
to play their farm club, the San
Francisco Seals.
Possibly because of the magic
name of Ted Williams, about 50,
000 fans will see the games, on
Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Some local newsmen and base
ball experts claim that this will
prove once again that San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles should be
represented in the major league.
Seek Juicy Gate
Others claim that all this
proves is that the major leagues
just come to the West for these
exhibition games to pick up
juicy gate receipts.
If the weather is good and
the forecasters are doubtful
about this the attendance will
prove one thing: that Ted Wil
liams is a bum prognosticator.
"What do we want to go clear
out to the West Coast for an ex
hibition baseball game for?"
Williams asked the other-day in
Florida. "They don't draw
crowds oit there."

Miss Burns, playing her sev

Pat Flaherty
Sitting Out
By HAL WOOD
San Francisco (U.R) Red
headed Pat Flaherty, his right
arm still in a cast as the result
of that horrible accident at
Springfield, 111., last August, will
"sit out" the 500-mile race at
Indianapolis on May 30 this year
and probably won't return to
action until 1958.
The defending chamDion In
America's greatest auto racing
classic has had a tough eight
months of it since the npar-fatal
spill at Springfield just two
and one-half months after he
had annexed S9fi nnn i
at Indianapolis.
Itching To Gel Back
"But I'm not eoine to civp nn
the sport and I'm itching to get
back into it," he said during a
visit here as he prepared to act
as technical advisor to the an
nual Mobile Gas economv run
from Los Angeles to Sun Val
ley, Ida., starting April 14.
"My wife loves racing and she
knows that I love it. so she has
brought no pressure to bear on
me to quit the game.
Flaherty is recovering from a
broken left shoulder, broken
jaw, crushed right arm and
iractured skull.
However, he doesn't believe
the auto racing is exceptionally
dangerous.
Klamath County
Advisory Group
Sought by Bill
Salem (U.R) Something must
be done to halt the reduction
of the deer population of Klam
ath and Lake counties, Sen.
Harry D. Boivin of Klamath
Falls told the Senate game com
mittee last night.
Boivin spoke at a hearing at
which representatives of sports
men organizations from other
parts of the state opposed two
measures, Senate bill 156 and
Senate point resolution 8.
The measures call for $5000
for creation of an advisory com
mittee to consult with the state
game commission concerning all
matters relating to deer hunting
seasons in Klamath and Lake
counties.
Deschutes Alarmed
Sen. Boivin said that Des
chutes county also was becom
ing alarmed at the decrease in
deer population.
They said the game commis
sion is making a sincere effort
to meet the problem but an ad
visory committee familiar with
the problems of the area might
help halt the reduction in the
deer population. '
Game commissioner J. H. Van
Winkle said the commission
leans on advice given it by
biologists of the commission. "If
the committee idea is put
through," he said, "everyone
will want an advisory commit
tee. We might as well scrap the
commission."

Braves Feel Theyil Go
Whole Way This Year
(This is the third in a cerilME
on the 1957 prospects of the
major league clubs.)
By LEO H. PETERSEN
United Press Sports Editor
Bradenton, Fla. (U.R) The
Milwaukee Braves feel this is
the year they are going all the
way.
Wiping the memory of a dis
appointing 1956 finish out of his
mind, Manager Fred Haney is
"very happy" about Milwaukee's
prospects this year and says
"there is a lot more determina
tion among the players."
Haney is convinced the Braves
will win "if we get the same
pitching we did last year. Per
sonally, I feel it is going to be
even better."
That belief is based on the
hope that big Gene Conley, who
won only eight games last season
because of 'shoulder trouble, will
come back to his 1955 form when
he won 11 games and seemed to
be on his way to becoming one
of the best right handers in the
league.
Four More Mound Stan
As other starters the Braves
are counting on Warren Spahn,
who has had seven 20-game win
ning seasons, more than any oth
er left hander in National league
history Bob Buhl an 18-game
winner who specializes in beat
ing Brooklyn; Lew Burdette,
who won 19; and Ray Crone,
who won 11.
The Braves had trouble with
their relief pitching last season
because Dave Jolly and Ernie
Johnson did not live up to ex
pectations. Both seem to be
sound again.
Lefty Taylor Phillips and
rightly Bob Trowbridge, both
with the club last season, are
sure to stick. The tenth spot
on the pitching staff is a toss-
up among Lou Sleater, Corky
Valentine, the ex-Redleg; and
Red Murff.
Del Crandall, who fell off to
.238 in hitting last year, will be
the No. 1 catcher with Del Rice
and the left-handed hitting Carl
Sawatski behind him.
Three Infielders Set
Three of the infield spots are
set big Joe Adcock at first.
home run hitting Ed Mathews at
third and pepper-pot Johnny
Johnny Logan at short.
Danny O'Connell, who hasn't
lived up to expectations either
in the field or at bat, is the lead
ing candidate for second base.
but Felix Mantilla, who was com.
ing fast at the close of last
season, could beat out O'Connell
for the job. Haney is hoping that
whichever one wins out, will
develop into the lead-off hitter.

Sacramento Solons Point
For PCL 1st Division Spot
(This is another in a series
of stories on the spring train
ing camps of the Pacific Coast
league baseball teams.)
By ALEX KAHN
Pasadena, Calif. (U.R)
Sacramento, the only Pacific
Coast league team without a ma
jor league affiliation, will be no
push-over for the rest of the
clubs and is pointing for a first
division berth this year, says
Manager Tommy Heath.
"Sure we have a lot of veter
ans but we would have done bet
ter than fifth last year if we
could have gotten a little more
hitting during a six-week road
trip,' he points out. "This year
we expect to do better and if I
had to pick a spot for us, I'd say
we would finish third."
Heath says Sacrament o's
pitching could be "fair -to real
good" depending upon how
quickly his veteran moundsmen
get into playing condition. These
include such old timers as Gene
Bearden, the one-time Cleveland
ace; Cloyd Boyer, Earl Harrist,
Rex Jones, Rog Osenbaugh, Joe
Stanks and Bud Watkins.
But there are three youngsters
in camp who could make the
grade Marshall Bridges, Mike
Coen and Car! Greene, the lat
ter with a 21-JO record at Corpus
Christi last year.
Catching Prospects
The Solons have only two
fairly good catching prospects in
John McNamara and Cuno Bar-
ragan. They may need - help
there.
The infield is about half vet
eran and half rookie, with play
ing coach Chuck Stevens avail

San Bernardino (U.R) The

over Seattle yesterday.
Ray Bauer, left hander ob

Georger.
able, if necessary, to play at
first. However, Heath thinks
well of Russ Rosburg, up from
Salem, Ore., of the Northwest
league. Jerry Streeter has been
working at second and Karl
Heron, up from Amarillo, Tex.,
at third. Either Ray Webster, a
rookie, or Ted Bell, may play
shortstop. The infield is thin and
the Sacs are shopping for help.
Sacramento lost half of its
entire outfield last year with
only Jack Tobin and Al Heist
returning. Rookie Bill Shields
from Amarillo, where he hit
.317, has been powering the
ball in practice "and may stick.
Another rookie who looks fairly
good is Don Farber, just out of
the armed forces. He had some
previous experience trying out
with Oakland.
Lack of Power
But there's not an experienced
power hitter in the lot unless
Shields can come through. Sac
ramento feels it needs one or
two men to bolster the outfield.
"This Coast league is getting
tougher every year and we know
we'll have to get off to a good
start and play well all the way
to be contenders," Heath "said.
"About all I can say now is that
we expect to field a better team
than we did last year."
