Dairy Maids Tussle Florists
Tonight in Regional Softball
Forest Grove Rogue Val
ley Dairy Maids hope that the
old adage, "third time's a
charm," will be working for
them here this evening.
The Maids, who won the
Oregon championship (for
teams outside of Portland) re
cently, oppose the Erv Lind
Florists of the state's metropo
lis tonight in the first round
of women's regional Softball
tournament.
It will be the third meeting
In two seasons between the
two clubs but the first in a
tournament. Lind won the
other two brushes, tipping
Rogue Valley 3 to 0 earlier
this summer and 3 to 1 in
1957.
While the southern Oregon
nine takes a 17-5 win-loss rec
ord against ladies' teams into
the tourney, the Florists will
draw from the greater experi
ence against generally tough
er competition.
Four Other Teams
Four other teams are con
testants in the double elimina
tion tournament which con
tinues into Sunday. Host For
est Grove Medowlarks, the
1957 state champs and this
year's hostess club, plays the

tonight's other game. The
Port Angeles Eagles, Wash
ington state champions, and
Seattle Bellview Ramblers in
a first round fracas on Friday
Tacoma and Forest Grove
are foes at 7 o'clock tonight
with the Maids and Florists
to follow..
Winner of the regional will
be eligible for the national
meet in Connecticut.

Ducks Have
Talent for
Pass Game
-. University of Oregon, Eu
gene It goes without saying
that Oregon's great game
against Ohio State in the 1958
Hose Bowl game was largely
dependent on an effective
passing offense and with open
ing 1958 drills just days away,
it appears certain the Ducks
will. have the ends to make
such a passing game go again.
Three lettermen returrt for
Coach Len Casanova, includ
ing ail-American candidate
Ron Stover at right end, while
a talented non-letterman and
four rookies make up the rest
of the end crew.
Stover, the Rose Bowl sen
sation who caught 10 passes
against an Ohio State aerial
defense to set an all-time
Bowl record, and his running
mate at left end, junior Alden
Kimbrough, make up the best
set of ends on the coast.
Strong Support
They will have strong sup
port from a pair of rangy
replacements, senior letter
men Pete Welch at right end
and junior Greg Altenhofen
at left end. The reserves will
come from Fred Siler, a con
verted halfback; Paul Bauge,
a converted freshman full
back; sophomore Ron Ander
on and an all-conference
transfer. Len Burnett of San
Diego JC.
Stover, of course, is the key
performer. Before, his tre
" mendous effort against the
Buckeyes he caught 24 passes
during the regular season to
rank second in. the PCC.
Stover does an aggressive job
of blocking and tackling to
further add to his value to
the team.
Kimbrough is the Duck's
replacement for J. C. Wheeler
on the left side, a quick, rangy
offensive end and a solid man
on defense. Welch, as Stover's
replacement last year, devel
olped into one of the league's
better defensive ends after
earlier work at fullback and
center. Altenhofen's progress
last spring 'stamps him as a
real asset to the club this fall.
COLLEGIANS UPSET LIONS Gene Gedman (26) of the
Detroit Lions makes a short gain before being dropped
by two Ail-Star tacklers in first quarter of College All-Stars-Detroit
Lions game at Soldiers Field in Chicago.
The All-Stars won, 35-19.

New Era of Closed Circuit
Television May Result From
Patterson-Harris Title Bout
By JACK CUDDY
Los Angeles (UPD Irving
B. Kahn said today the' fi
nancial success of the Floyd
Patterson-Roy Harris heavy
weight title fight will usher
in a new era of regional, as
well as national, theater tele
vision in boxing.
Kahn, president of the Tele
PrompTer Corp., predicted
that henceforth the managers
of champions and contenders
in various divisions .will in-
Medford's Craterian
theatre tnade the best show
ing percentagewise in the
country for attendance at
closed circuit television pre
sentations of the Floyd Pat
terson Roy Harris boxing
bout Monday,. Theatre Man
ager Robert Corbin was in
formed by TelePrompTer
TV firm.
Corbin said that all but
about 100 seats at the Cra
terian were filled for the
fight.
Sale of tickets prior to
Monday at the Craterian
was not encouraging. Cor
bin said, however, that
there was a big call for
tickets at the box office the
night of the fight.
The theatre manager said
that success of the Patter
son - Harris presentation
through the country is in
dication that TelePromp
Ter may go ahead with
plans to telecast a variety
of other sports activities
through the nation by the
closed circuit means.
TV reception was clear
at the Craterian on Mon
day and th bout appeared
to go over big with the
fans.

closed - circuit TV purses be

matches.
He explained, "The Patterson-Harris
fight at Wrigley
F,ield Monday night was one
that had been generally un
derrated by the public, sports
writers and oddsmakers. Yet,
Patterson's purse from all
sources will approximate
$311,000 and Harris will get
his guaranteed $100,000."
Battled Handicaps
The fight was a "cold prod
uct" that was hard to sell be
cause of champion Patter
son's year-long inactivity and
Harris' comparative obscuri
ty. Roy never had fought out
side of Texas and never on
television of any kind. And
the bookies made challenger
Roy a 6-1 underdog.

in
Fir
cess in the face of innumer
able handicaps, I'm convinced
that the time has come for
TelePrompTer to try o es
tablish a continuity of attrac
tions by staging four or five
big fights each year on a na
tional closed circuit basis
and to put on several less im
portant bouts on regional
hookups," Kahn said.
Accordingly, Kahn said he
would begin "immediate ex
plorations" of possible
matches involving Patterson,
light - heavyweight champion
Archie Moore, middleweight
ruler Sugar Ray Robinson,
welterweight King Virgil
Akins, and lightweight cham
pion Joe Brown.
Won't Promote Bouts
"Let me make it clear," he
emphasized, ."that we of
TelePrompTer will not be
the promoters of any fights;
but we will cooperate with
any promoter including the
International Boxing club
that can make and stage big
time matches. And we will
help with guarantees for the
champions, at least."
Concerning regional closed
circuit rights, he explained
that a bout like next month's
Los Angeles match 'between
welterweights Carmen Ba
silio and Art Aragon could
have been piped to theaters
in three or four Far-Western
states "with" good profit to
all concerned."

N Bob Sloan of Harriman s
resort reports that the fish
ing continues very good with
many Rogue Valley anglers
on the big fish board with
trout weighing over" four
pounds.
The fishing in Upper
Klamath lake has had the
longest sustained run of real
ly good fishing in recent
years. Part of this is prob
ably due to the fact that the
lake was kept high for the
early part of the season while
some work was being done
on tne dam. in tne early
season Sloan predicted that
the mid summer fishing
should be excellent and this
prophecy has certainly come
to pass.

rainbows taken includes; Ed

5V2 pounds; E. L. Niederman,

FISH TAKE IMPROVES
Lloyd Morris of Fish
lake resort says that the
fishing there is improving.
There aren't too many fish
ermen but those who are
going out are bringin' back
some nice fish. One rain
bow of 5 pounds was taken
using worms down deep.
Most of the fish have been
Brook trout in the 2, 3 and
4-pound class taken on
fenders with green flatfish
trailing.
Willow Creek reservoir
is reported as better than
fair and last report from
Four-Mile lake was that it
was producing pretty well.
FISH ON BOTTOM
Warm "water has kept the
fish on the bottom according
to Johnny Koch of Diamond
lake but with the weather
cooling off this situation
should improve. Some anglers
have limited but the fishing
has been somewhat on the
slow side. Gang troll and
flies-, or still fishing with
worms has been the best
method.
BEST FISHING COMING
It should be kept in mind
that we are entering the
best fishing time of the
season for all these high
lakes. Strange enough most
folks will hang their rods

up come the f irsl part of

days are nicer ' and the
fishing excellent during this
last part of the season.
Last September the fish
ing was simply tops in Dia

September. The fish come
to the surface and hit a fly
like a ton of TNT. Fish lake
and Willow Creek reservoir
also produce very well in
the late season. So, don't
give up because August

up for it. '
SHINE UP GUN
Many sportsmen are shin
ing up the old scattergun for
the first of the month open
ing of dove and pigeon sea
son. To date I haven't heard
of any concentration of birds
but this is to be expected for
many times they come in only
a few days before the season
opens and there have been
years when the . birds didn't
come in until the last couple
of weeks.
There are a few good places
in the two counties where
fair to good dove shooting can
be had for the first few days
of the season. We do not have
the extensive migrations of
some sections of thecountry
but limits are not uncommon
here for the first week.
Our pigeon shooting is con
centrated in just a few areas
and most of the "pigeon
shooters" know all about
these. Such names as 8-Dol-lar,
O'Brian, Panther gulch
and Dryden are quite well
known and probably will be
well patronized this year as
in former years.
Rogue River
Trout Luck
Still Slow
Portland (UPD The weekly
report on fishing conditions
by regions as prepared by
the State Game Commission!
Southwest: Summer steel
head angling is fair to good
in the Steamboat area with
best results in the early morn
ing or late afternoon. Trout
angling in Lemolo, Toketee,
and Soda Springs reservoir is
fair. Trout angling in the
north Umpqua is poor to fair.
Salmon angling at Winchester
bay is good.
Chinook angling is fair to
good on the lower Coquille
river from Prosper to Bul
lards bridge. Striper . fishing
at Coos Bay is fair in the
north and Haynes inlets.
Trout angling is slow in
nearly all parts of the Rogue
river basin and no improve
ment is expected until cooler
weather. Angling is slow at
Fish lake in Jackson County.
Central: Good catches are
being taken at Olallie lake
by trolling deep and slow
with spinner and worms. Low
er Hood river is very good
for. small rainbow. Trout fish
ing on the Deschutes in the
Maupin area is improved.
Steelhead on the lower Des
chutes is improved with good
results reported from the
mouth and at Kloan
East and Paulina lakes have
been fair with late evening
trolling. Crescent lake is poor.
Blue lake is very good. Late
afternoon and evening fly
fishing has been very good on
the upper Deschutes river for
river and rainbow and
browns.
Steel pipes in the Pentagon
building would reach from
Chicago to Indianapolis or
about 200 miles.
