i hunting outhern (Oregon By MEL To a Medford angler goes the honor of landing the first chinook of the season at Sav age Rapids. Ralph Newman, 1716 East Main st., took a fresh run fish that pulled the scales down to 28 pounds. This fish, the largest of the season was entered in the salmon derby at Milo's Sporting goods in Grants Pass. Only a couple of other fish have been reported and these were taken in the Robertson bridge section of the Rogue. However, another fish was hooked but lost at We-Ask-U-Inn just below the dam. There are a number of salmon boards in now and space is available for rent by the day. Two of the best spots to fish are at We-Ask-U-Inn on Sav age rapids and at Hansen's board near Rand ranger sta tion below Galice. FINE RAINBOWS Some fine rainbows, up to 30 inches have been re ported from Klamath lake. Most of these fish are taken either near Rocky point or at Barclay springs on the east shore of the lake. Best method for this time of the year at these places is to thread several minnows either fresh caught or the. canned variety on a 1-0 hook, cast them out and let them lie on the bottom. The minnows must be dead according to law. Most of the fishermen run the line through a "running weight," a lead sinker with a hole through the middle. owling SENIOR LEAGUE Rainbow Cafe 1 (Gary Williams 08.

This is necessary for they will let go if they feel a tightening of the line. After they travel 10-12 feet, the hook is set and the battle is on. Rarely do the fish run under 18 inches. In weight they will go from 2Vi to 4 pounds and are prime at this time of year. ANSWER TO ENIGMA Among the many new items which appear from time to time in new tackle are two which it might be well to mention. South Bend has produced the answer to a fisherman's enigma, the split shot prob lem. Their Redi-Shot is plier-like tool to which may be attached small discs con taming the split shot. The split shot are held in place. by a plastic shield. When theT angler wishes to attach a split shot to the line he has only to place the line in the slice of the lead, squeeze the han dle and the shot is pinched on. Other shot may be placed on by turning the shot hold ing disc to the front position. Removing split shot from the line, which has always been a difficult procedure is also easy with this new Redi-Shot tool GLASS RODS TAKE OVER Glass fishing rdds have become such a major part of fishing that there are but few who remember what the old bamboo rods were like. In 1945 the "constant taper" blank was devel oped for these glass rods. This means that from the butt section to the tip of the rod the walls of the rod be came progressively thinner and the taper diminished on a graduated scale. The fault here was that the rod had a willowy feel when playing a fish as the action was transmitted too far down into the butt of the rod. In 1950 the "reinforced type" blank was developed in which there was extra weight and strength in the butt section to give more strength for playing large fish and to keep the lighter tip action for feeling the strike or "pick up" of the bait.' The trouble here has been that the arc of the rod under pressure had an un natural feel. PROGRESSIVE TAPER Just recently the Sila-flex company has developed what they call the "progressive taper" blank in which the wall thicknesses and rod diameters are progressively tapered to produce a more powerful and smoother action than the sudden transitions and stress points found in the constant taper or reinforced types of blanks. To the fisherman this means that with the delicate tip ac tion he will be able to cast ultra -light lures with ease. With a heavier lure the action progresses down the rod to the power point needed for this extra weight. In bait fishing he will have the deli cate tip action for the "light feel" of the fish pick-up and i the power to battle picture taking size fish. WEIGHT FACTOR On of the greatest fea tures of this new Magnum rod . is the weight factor. With this type of action it is possible to reduce the overall weight of the rod be cause of the fact that the opwer can be built into the places it is needed and re duced at other points. Any- . one who has fished all day with our older models of rods where heavier weight meant more strength for big fisb will appreciate this. Another and large advan tage is the fact that with this new type of design, one rod will handle almost eve rything in your tackle box. PLAYOFF SOLD OUT St. Louis (IP) All 10,500 seats for Saturday night's sixth game of the National Basketball Association final playoff series between the St. Louis Hawks and Boston Cel tics at Kiel Auditorium have been sold. Daily's U-Drive Medford Airport SKIN DIVERS AT FAIR Demonstrations of skin and SCUBA divin" and the equipment used will be a center of attraction at the first annual Sportsfair of Crater Lions club at tne Medford Armory Saturday and Sunday, April 12 and io. riuiurea nere are lour oi put on exhibitions through the afternoon and evening of each day.

They have recovered tools and fishing equipment and at Lomola did some clearing for gates. It is planned to have a diver in the tank at all times during the show. Salmon Fishing Improved in Mid-Blue Area Portland (IP) The weekly fishing report prepared by the state game commission: Southwest: Salmon angling in the Umpqua river poor above Winchester and from the forks to Tyee; angling is poor to fair from forks to Winchester; few fish are mov ing over the dam; on the low er Umpqua water is still high and muddy but clearing. Salmon fishing in middle section of the Rogue is im proving; few fish have been consistently taken in the Ga lice area and the first ones are being taken at We-Ask-U-Inn. Waters are low, clear and ideal for salmon. Lower Rogue poor for sal mon; recent rains have caused the river to become high and muddy but it was dropping at midweek.

Tuesday night after he became distressed and showed signs of violence. Wednesday he slashed his wrists with an unidentified sharp object, broke up hos pital furniture and knocked out windows in two rooms. "Basketball is not to blame," a physician at Riley hospital said.

San Francisco (IP) "Draw one!" but if it's another stale mate between Eddie Machen and Zora Folley you are talk ing about, the fans are not in terested. The two h e a v y w e ights ground to a 12-round draw Wednesday night at the Cow Palace which only proved several minor points. Machan, who went into the ring weigh ing 191 Vs and was undefeat ed as a professional in 24 bouts, can't beat everybody.

The fight had been billed as one which would uncover the logical contender for Floyd Patterson's title. But Truman Gibson, executive secretary of the IBC, glumly said after ward, "Where does this leave us?" Machen is ranked the number one contender and Folley the number two man by both The Ring magazine and NBA. .The crowd of about, 13,000 began getting callouses on their hands slapping for action from the second round on. By the ' seventh the fans were booing and in the eighth some yelled for ex-amateur Pete Rademacher who vainly sought to win the crown last summer from Patterson. In New York, Cus D'Amato, Patterson's manager, said the fight showed what a good fighter Rademacher was. "I think tonight's bout showed clearly where both Machen and Folley should rats in the heavyweight divi sion," D'Amato said. After the pair of counter punchers had fallen out of their last clinch, judge Jack Downey called it a draw at 115 points each, judge Fred Apostoli saw it for Folley 117 115, and refree Frankie Cart er voted for Machen, 117-116. The United Press voted for Machen, 117-115. Folley, of Chandler, Ariz., was impressive during the first four rounds as he often shot the Californian's head back with solid left jabs and thudded heavy right hand counters to the same place. During this- span Machen often fell short with right hand leads. It was after the eighth that Machen began to show more fire. He belted Folley with two good left hooks in the ninth, and bathed him in the 10th with another volley of hooks. Folley slipped to the canvas in the later stage of this round but there was no count.
