Four days of cold, stormy weather slowed the fishing in Upper Klamath lake to f walk but now that summer has shown up again the fishing is on the upswing. Bob Sloan of Harriman's re sort said in a telephone inter view that in spite of adverse con ditions Rod Hinman of Klamath Fall had snared a couple of trout weighing 4',2 and 5'i pounds. John Overand of Ash land took one fish of 4' s pounds nd Frank Logan of La Mesa a rainbow of 4'.4 pounds. The weather is good again nd the fishing was picking up rapidly so this week end should be another bumper one for this area.

Corvallis Residents Count Days Until Grid Campaign Oregon State College, Corvil lit At a time when mos friorts fans are talking about ma jor league baseball races or a eek at the beach on vacation. wd citizens of this Willamette valley city are eating, talking and sleeping football. It's been that way ever since Coach Tommy Prothro brought Oregon State out of the grid wilderness with a second place Pacific Coast conference finish in 1955 and an outright cham pionship in 1956 and a shot at the Rose Bowl. Over the coffee counter at Wagner's restaurant, traditional home of downtown coaches, the conversation isn't centered around Ted Williams' batting average or the herculean feats of Mickey Mantle. In Corvallis. they're counting off the days until football starts again. The Beavers, of course, won't be eligible for the Rose Bowl next fall along with UCLA Southern California and Wash ington. They relinquished that right by appearing there last January 1. But Oregon State is very much eligible for the PCC crown again, and some of the so-called experts claim the Bea vers will be a strong contender. Batter First Team Prothro hasn't done much to i discourage those raving about OSC chances. The sly southern er believes "we'll have a better Hamlin and Sweet shot the hottest golf, each being two under par. Yturri Needs 23 In the boys' division Lynn Yturri of Ontario defeated Fred Taylor of Portland on the 23rd hole; Doug Ragen of Oswego de feated Fred Heidt of Portland 6 and 4; Dave Munro, Portland, defeated Bing Powell of Salem 2 and 1. and Daryl Winn of Eu gene downed Gary Bronkey of The Dalles 4 and 2. Yturri faced Winn and Ragen met Munro today. Joy Rubenstine of Eugene up REES FISH LAKE LEVELING Checking Lloyd Morris of the Fish Lake lodge brought up the nswi that the water in both Fish lake and Willow Creek reservoir was raised from 18 inches to 2 feet this past week and this really put the slowdown to fishing. Things were leveling off by the first part of the week and prospects for the week end are good. SALMON OUTSIDE CHETCO Johnny Hewitt of Hewitt's An- cnorage says mat tne salmon are playing around outside the mouth of the Chetco but the run is much smaller than it was a couple of weeks ago. He feels that it will be in the first part of July before too much excite ment will occur over there. The bottom fishing has been tops and perch fishing in the mouth is good. Most of the sportfishers are booked solid for the week ends in the Cres cent City, Calif., and Brookings area. DIAMOND READY Finally it looks like Dia mond is ready to pay off. The Diamond lake lodge reports that the fishing can be said to be good, now with the fish averaging three pounds. The top lure seems to be a green flatfish in size No. 4 or 5. Dragging (trolling) a Golden Demon or Bucktail Coachman behind a boat seems to work wonders in the early morning and late evening. This fly should be far back, 150 to 300 feet back seems to be the best. There are still some fish spawning but phase seems to be about over and the Go sig nal should be out for Diar mond from now on. NO LUCK AT BOLIN It would seem that the laugh of the season concerns Bolin lake. This beautiful little lake which used to have such nice eastern brook was poisoned about three years ago, restocked, or was reported so, closed for an extra year and then opened. This was supposed to be the gala year but the anglers who braved the snows of early sea son to be first didn't have any luck. There is still no luck in Bolin and now the story is out that someone was lost in the fog and instead of stocking Bolin they stocked Eanger which of course is in California. I suppose that this comes under the good neighbor policy. This could be worse for many southern Ore gon anglers have California li censes and Sanger is reported to be very good. It is possible to take the same road leading to Bolin and continue on over the mountain to Sanger but be sure of the license first. first team than last year" in '57, though he also mentions that many of the other clubs will be stronger, too. He figures the strongest of all probably will be Southern California, OSC's first opponent next fall. jt's an all-lettermen team Ore gon State has billed for next season, although plenty of in experienced sophomores will be thrown into second-team spots. The Beavers will have fair size, good speed and experience in most positions. They could use a lot more depth, however. When September 1 rolls around, the starters will be Dwayne Fournier and Bob De Grant, ends: Dave Jesmer and Ted Bates, tackles: Bob McKit trick and Jim Brackins, guards Buzz Randall, center; Ted Searle, blocking back; Joe Fran cis, tailback; Earnel Durdon, wingback and Nub Beamer, full back. On paper, at least, it sounHs good to most everyone in Corvallis. No Trapshooting Here This Week There will be no shooting at Medford Gun club this Sunday, President Bert Peck reported. Practice shooting is scheduled for June 30. set Donna Horn of Neskowin 3 and 2 in the girl's division. She will meet Marcia Lessing of Portland who edged Maureen Devaney of La Grande 2-up. The other semi-final match pits June Robinson, the favorite Ken Everett Has Rally in Trans Miss. Dallas. Tex. W Ken Ev erett, a 39-year-old physical edu cation teacher in a Denver ele mentary school, shared the spot light with defending champion Charley Coe and title contender Rex Baxter Jr. today as the Trans-Mississippi Amateur golf tourney hit the second round. Coe and Baxter are well known in national and interna tional golf circles and they came through as expected Wednesday as the first round of match play cut the field from 64 to 32 in the championship flight. But the quiet Colorado school teacher, playing in his first Trans-Miss tourney and that by invitation only since he is nor mally a public links player wasn't supposed to win against a formidable foe. Jimmy Powell, a lean Dallas youngster who was a kingpin of the talented North Texas State golf team. Five Down at Turn And, it didn't look as if he would fm. Everett was five down at the turn, and still four down with four holes to play, when his game caught fire and Powell's fell apart. Everett won the final four holes with two pars and two birdies, then promptly sent the highly-favored Powell to the sidelines with a birdie on the first extra hole. Coe and Everett were among the so-called "old guard" who moved into today's second round along with more than a dozen college stars and a high school player or two. Golfers Tee Off In Flint Open Flint, Mich. OfW A field of more than 150, including all but a handful of the top money win ners, teed off today in the open ing round of the $37,000 Flint Open. Doug Ford, the Masters cham pion and leading money winner with earnings of nearly S30.000 this year, was favored to swell his earnings by another $10,700 in this four-day, 72-hole event Actually, the winner's share of the 537,000 pot is only $5,700 but the sponsor has promised an additional S5.000 if any of the three former winners of the tournament claims the title a second time. Ford is a former winner along with Dow Finsterwald and Ju lius Boros. Joe Brown Hangs On To Lightweight Toga By GENE MEAKINS Denver, Colo. (IPl Light weight champion Joe Brown, ra diating confidence after Wednes day night's marathon technical knockout of Cuban challenger Orlando Zulueta, said today he would fight highly - regarded Kenny Lane within 90 days if the National Boxing association wanted him to. Brown, starting slowly, ral lied powerfully in the final three rounds at Denver coliseum to smash Zulueta helpless with 21 seconds remaining in the 15th round. Lou Viscusi, Brown's mana ger, said the champ would take about a month's rest and then fight some overweight matches. He said he had offers to take Brown to Milwaukee and Hous ton. Viscusi said Brown would meet Lane within 90 days and abide by any other requests from the National Boxing associa tion. Crowd Looked For Upset The 28-year-old Zulueta made a good, smart fight of it until the 11th and was ahead on judge Joe Ullmer's card, to the delight of the small crowd of 5,000 who sensed an upset. But in the 13th round the champion's punches picked up power. He floored Zulueta for a nine count with a left he brought up from below his knees. Brown knocked Zulueta to the Tooley Real Estate Opens Medford Office Sam Tooley, owner of Tooley Real Estate company, Ashland, has opened a new Medford of fice at 917 South Central ave., company officials announced to day.

Hardtoppers To Vie Again On Saturday Hardtop auto drivers go into another night of auto racing at Valley View track Saturday with Wayne Lemley, Crock Hunter and Itay Asher ranking one, two three in the point standings. A standard program of events is again slated with time trials at 7 p.m. and the first race at 8 p.m. Lemley added another 44 counters to his total last week end and heads the point stand ings with a big 139.

Association and track officials hope to smooth out some prob lems which have come up in con nection with race operations. floor again with a right for a count of eight in the 15th. Ref eree Ray Keech called the bout at 2:39, with much booing from the crowd. But the scorecards of the two judges and the referee showed the 2-1 favored champion ahead on points after 14 rounds, and Zulueta was plainly in no condi tion to throw a knockout punch his only chance to win in the final seconds.
