Regional Water Ski Tourney
Gardener lake, a 15-mile

much activity since last May.
Members of the Gardener

Each member of the club
has been assigned a part of
the necessary work by Presi

been bustling activity particu

" Admits One Adult
Man Harris
Could Whip
like to tell about some of the
scrapes they got into back in
the days when life was 'a lot
more rugged here in the "Big
Thicket." , .
It used to be that folks in
these parts just used to fish
and hunt, farm a little bit and
maybe tend a whisky still.
They had their own law and
a high code of honor. The less
they had to do with outsiders,
the better they liked it.
When the law from outside
would come in and take some
one in to the jail in Conroe,
my granddad, John Wesley
(everybody called him "Cus
sin' " Harris) would go into
town and get them out of
trouble. He used to be a jus
tice of the peace in Oklahoma
and nobody could put much
over on him.
One of the first things any
body asks me is where our
town of Cut 'N Shoot gets its
name. From what I just told
you about it, you have to ad
mit it fits like a 50-cent shirt
after a hard rain.
Nobody knows for sure just
how the name started, but the
way we usually explain it is
that if you stand around long
enouh you'll get cut, and if
you try to run you'll get shot.
In 1932, they found oil, and
that changed a lot of things.
Conroe, our county seat about
five miles from Cut 'N Shoot,
was the boom town and the
population is about 11,000
now.
People in the Thicket
fought against the oil com
panies. My dad and uncles
were the ring-leaders. They
organized a gang and went
around on horseback, tearing
down the fences and oil rigs
and whipping the roughnecks.
They finally had to bring in
the Texas Rangers to quiet
things down.
Uncle Jack set up a team
ing camp, with 18 - mule
teams. They dug slush pits
and cleared land for the drill
ing rigs. He hired the toughest
fellows he could find, and one
of his muleskinners for a
while was Roy Tipton, who
had been with the Machine
Gun Kelly gang and was bid
ing out from the law.
I was born about that time,
and that's how I came by my
first name from Roy Tipton.
We don't think Cut JN
Shoot is so wild anymore
Strangers make out that it is,
but we can't get wide-eyed
about it because we live here
and are used to the way
things are. I only wanted to
tell about it so that you can
see why it is I don't back
away from Floyd Patterson
or anybody else.
Around here, they say that
us Harris boys were "born in
condition." I've been fighting
most of my life, and I've
never taken a drink or
smoked or chewed. It all adds
up to how bad I want the
heavyweight championship.
Patterson has "it, and I aim
to take it from him. i

hunting & Foshfing
Southern (Oregon
By MEL
Within the past week as I
was driving along in the
Rogue valley I heard a radio
fishing report that made me
wish I could take off right
then and there for some of
the "terrific" fishing that was
supposed to be going on in
the surrounding , mountains. I
was amazed to hear how good
the ' fishing was because of
the fact that I had been in
telephone contact with these
same places only two days
previous and the reports with
the exception of Upper Kla
math lake were that the fish
ing' was slow.
There'isn't a fishing report
er living that wouldn't be
happy to be able to report
that the fishing was excellent
each and every week but un
less you want to get back
many miles in the "boon
docks," the fishing isn't going
to be this way. False reports
do more harm than good as
we in this valley know.
TOURISTS GETTING WISE
For years now the "fabu
lous" fishing on the Rogue
has been worn transparent
thin and the tourists are
getting wise. It is true that
there was once fabulous
fishing her butv even the
most naive must admit that
those days are down mem
ory lane somewhere. We
still have some good fishing
but it is spotty. 1
APPRECIATE AID
In the years I have reported
fishing and hunting I have
never, knowingly, given out a
false report. It is true that
sometimes my information
was erroneous and this cor
rection was made as soon as
possible.
I greatly appreciate the
help I receive in reporting the
fishing in this area from the
resort owners and managers.
I have found absolutely de
pendable the reports I receive
from week to week from Bob
Sloan, Harriman's resort,
Lloyd Morris of Fish lake and
Willow Creek reservoir, John
ny Koch of Diamond lake and
Sid Blood of Four-Mile lake.
I have checked these re
ports many times with return
ing fishermen and found
them true each time. In no
instance have they reported
good fishing when it was
slow.
PROSPECTS
The fishing for the past
week and prospects for the
coming week end are as
follows: -Fish
Lake and Willow
Creek Reservoir Lloyd Mor
ris says that Willow Creek
reservoir is fair to good and
picking up. With the water
lowering in Fish lake the fish
ing is starting to pick up.
Lloyd says it is still not good
but that he figures that it
will increase now until it will
be good 'ere long. There is, no
algae problem this year and
the weather is nice and cool!
Four-Mile Lake A couple
of weeks ago the fishing had
been excellent but reports in
dicate that it has slowed
somewhat now. It should con
tinue pretty good for the bal
ance of the season with some
days better than others.
Diamond Lake Fishing
is poor according to the lodge.
There are a few fish being
taken in the evening but gen
erally it is very slow. Don't
be misled into thinking that
the fishing here is over for
the season. Diamnd will slack
off then get hotter than a pis
tol again. Some of the finest
fishing almost in the fabu
lous class was had last Sep
tember so keep tuned to this
lake for some really good
angling for big fish.

Water Skiing
Record Sought
Portland (UPD Two Port
landers today began their at

record for distance water ski
ing on a Portland-to-Astoria
course.
Twenty-six - year-old Mark
Carpenter, a Portland restau
rateur and Jim Hemstreet, a
30-year-old contractor, started
their marathon about 3:30 a.
m. this morning as they left
Swan Island under the tow of
a helicopter. v
The . aircraft, piloted by
Wes Lamatta, of Helicopters,
Inc., of Troutdale, was to
whisk the skiers at a speed of
about 60 miles per hour on
a round trip to Astoria. After
the first ' circuit, the tow
would be transferred to a boat
for the .remainder of the rec
ord attempt.
Carpenter said the world
distance mark , is now ' 400
miles, but that the Portland
ers hope to crack the 500-mile
barrier.

that inserting the words "rea
