claimed by the governor to draw
attention to the state's wealth of

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"

ly supply the demand. 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. Mentors Elect

AAU Entry
For Tornado
Indefinite
Plans for entry of Medford
high athletes in the Oregon
AAU track meet at Portland
next Saturday were indefinite
today, Coach Bob Newland in
dicated. 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."
