Life In Hands Trout Fishery Dependent Upon Wild Fish in Area (Editor's note. May 20 to 26 is Oregon Conservation week, pro claimed by the governor to draw attention to the state's wealth of natural resources, and the import ance of conserving them for fu ture generations. To mark the occa sion, the Mail Tribune is printing a series of six articles, prepared by experts in various fields of conser vation.) FISH CONSERVATION By Cole Rivers, Fishery Agent Oregon Stale Game Commission Most of the trout fishery in the Rogue Basin is dependent upon wild fishw Too many peo ple believe that fish conservation means a big hatchery with lots o. fish planted from it. If all the needs of the angling public in just the Rogue Valley were to be supplied by hatchery-planted fish, nearly half of the produc tion of all the hatcheries in the State of Oregon would be need ed. The hatchery can only supply a small amount of the total num bers of fish for anglers, and then, only for stream sections that are fished so heavily, week in and week-out, through the en tire season by the "out-of-the-car-door" type angler. With ade quate protection of the waters in our streams, naturally - reared and propagated fish can general- Oregon Tech Conference T l W A i rue it v cTor Monmouth (IP) Oregon Tech took five first places and won the Oregon Collegiate Confer ence track and field title Sat urday with 77 points to 70 for Oregon College.

"Wild Bill Reed, the Akron, O., auto test driver, will see ac tion as he takes his life into his own hands for the thrilling aerial ramp to ramp leap of a new auto. This stunt, which has claimed the lives of 16 stuntmen, will be made doubly hazardous for Reed, for the new convert ible he will drive in this leap through space, will have both its front tires blown out just before the event. Included in the program will be the crash roll-over contest, dive bomber smash, two wheel ramp racing at high speeds, motorcycle fire wall crash, to name a few of the events.

The hatch ery program should be designed to supplement those wild stocks only in those areas where fish ing pressure is too great for Mother Nature to carry the load. Wild Fish Better Wild fish are much more hearty and capable of surviving to sizes that are needed to en tertain the average fisherman. I Hatchery fish can . survive in lakes and grow to large sizes, but very few are able to live through the first winter when planted in streams. To date, the ony successful method for producing and main taining runs of spring chinook salmon and summer steelhead in the Rogue watershed is to pro tect them in their wild habitat through hatching, rearing and migration to sea to assure their adequate ercapement from the ocean to their preferred spawn ing grounds when they return as adults. Dangers Told . ' Unorderly logging and other poor land-use practices destroys much of the quality and future quantity of available waters for a balanced multiple-use water program. The abuses of the use of water during mid and late summer months not only elimin ate much of the value of our waters for recreation and fish life but also place limitations on future development. The control of wasted irrigation water, do mestic, industrial and agricul tural pollution, and watershed damage is important. Our management and conser vation of fish is closely related to the supply, protection and us es of water. The success of a fish ery conservation program is gauged by the respect and order ly use of the water and the wa tersheds from which it origin ates.

He said it hadn't been decided whether Tornado thinclads would make the trip or, if so, who would go. "It depends on the finances in the track budget and we haven't checked," he re ported this morning. AAU competition is unoffi cial. No team score is kept and school representation is consid ered unofficial. Concerning his Black Torna do's fifth straight team triumph in the Oregon A-l high school meet, Newland declared, "I couldn't be any prouder." It was the ninth state toga in 10 years for a Newland-coached Medford team. ' Weather Handicapped The mentor stated that it was unfortunate that the weather was bad and that the Tornado athletes did not have opportu nity to perform up to full capa bility. Medfordites were impres sive champions, nevertheless. The weather was, of course, a handicap to all the participants, with a rain-soaked track slowing the runners. Newland reported that Wally Larson skidded in the mud on the turn in the low hurdles. He had to go over the hurdle with the wrong leg, needed nine strides instead of seven in get ting over the next hurdle again with the wrong leg. After that it was still a struggle to get back in stride. Larson bruised a heel on Saturday qualifying and was taped up for Saturday running. He took first in the highs and second in the lows. Mike Russell, who took sixth in the quarter mile, was still hampered by poison ivy. Had he and Larson been in top shape, Medford's victory could have been even more lopsided. Both are members of the Tornado re lay team which was beaten out Saturday by Jefferson of Port land. Atomic Explosion Cancelled Again Las Vegas, Nev. Iff) Atom ic Energy Commission scientists today lost their gamble with the weather and were compelled to postpone for the fifth straight time an atomic test which had been scheduled for 4 a.m. (p.s.t.) today. The nuclear blast, opening shot of the most extensive atomic test in history, was to have been set off atop a 500-foot steel tower in Yucca Flat on the southern Ne vada atomic test site. The AEC scientists had hoped that forecast wind conditions would change so that the deadly radioactive fallout from the blast would have been chanelled through one of several narrow alleys north and east of the test site, avoiding populated areas. Instead, the forecast of mete orologists proved to be precise ly correct and the fallout would have sprinkled upon populated areas southwest of Yucca Flat, 70 miles northwest of here. No place in North Carolina's 1,224-acre Mount Mitchell state park is less than one mile above sea level, and most of it is much higher.

THE GUY TUING HIS Athlete Aid Said Tops on PCC Agenda By RUSS NIELSEN United Press Sports Writer Spokane, Wash. (IP) No body would be quoted, but the concensus was that the touchy "aid to athletes" problem would top the agenda at the annual spring meeting . of the Pacific Coast conference starting here today. No announcement of the pro ceedings was to be made until after a joint meeting of repre sentatives, athletic directors and coaches of the nine member schools. Aid to athletes and possible easing of penalties against UCLA and Southern California gridders undoubtedly will top the agenda, and the aid problem involves more than just dollars and cents. Representatives will be trying to find a formula for aid based on cost of living at the various schools. One source said Southern Cal and UCLA "very definitely" would ask that seniors be al lowed to play a half season, or five football games, next fall. A UCLA spokesman, the source said, "I don't see how they can turn it down. After all, they set the precedent last year." Dr. Emmett Moore of Wash ington State College, PCC presi dent said, "I think we may be able to do something on this aid business. We should have data about the cost-of-living at var ious schools which we didn't have at the Portland meeting earlier this year." The aid idea was approved at the Portland confab but repre sentatives were unable to agree on a dollars-and-c e n t s dif ferential to be paid. Dr. Moore said it seemed unlikely that any formula reached here would be effective before the 1957-58 school year. Also slated for discussion during the three-day meeting are the round-robin schedule, reports of radio-television and Rose Bowl committees, rules enforcement and procedures and special petitions from athletes. Bulganin Suggests Soviet-French Talks Moscow (IB Premier Niko 1 a 1 Bulganin has suggested French and Soviet talks on in ternational issues, it was an nounced today. Bulganin, in a note to France warned that "a few hydrogan bombs would be enough to turn a large area into a desert." But he said his warn ing was not a threat. Bulganin's suggest! on was made in a personal note to French Premier Guy Mollet. He said that he and his colleagues were "alarmed" because France was allowing American atomic bases to be established on French territory. He warned Mollet that "it is not security to live in the midst of stores of atomic and hydro gen weapons with which Europe is being covered."
