ISU Team Tops UPI Ratings With Perfect Season Score -New York -(LTD -Louisiana State, which has ended its regular season with a perfect record and a Sugar Bowl berth, led the United Press International college football ratings Saturday by a wide margin and awaited next week's final balloting to de cide the national championship. Coach Paul Dietzel's Tigers were the No. 1 choice of 30 members of the 35-man UPI Fish Lake Restocked With Rainbow Trout ' Fish lake has been restock ed with rainbow trout follow ing the chemical treatment project to rid the lake of trash fish, it was announced my Cole Rivers, field agent for the Oregon Game commis sion. The lake was treated on Oct. 1, and all studies to date indicate that a complete kill was made. Tests run through to Oct 23 finally showed that rainbow trout could live without suffering from the ef fects of rotenone. Liberation crews of the Same' commission planted 102,000 rainbow trout in the lake during the last week of October. The fish averaged 5.8 inches in length. Net-sets are indicating a good surviv al. Rivers said this means that Fish lake will have an open season in 19 5 9. Closure through the first year follow ing' chemical treatment will not be necessary. To Set Opening The game commission will set the opening date for fish ing at Fish lake at its Janu ary meetings at which time all 1959 angling regulations are set. All of the recently planted fish are expected to be of le gal size early in the season, and they should increase ra pidly to 8 to 1 1 inches by late summer, the biologist stated. Heavy plants of fry and fing erling rainbow in July will place the waters in peak pro duction. Excellent catches of trout in all size groups can be anticipated for the 1960 angling season. Fish lake became a famous fishing lake in 1953 following chemical treatment in 1951 by producing large rainbow. Six to nine pound fish were being taken by anglers by 1955. Board of Coaches this week.

Jefferson G-HSgh Football Star Ambidextrous Portland - (UPD - W h e n a youngster can throw with either hand, it usually creates interest. When one passes a football with his left and pitches a baseball with his right it generates excitement. That is especially so in the case of 17-year-old Terry Baker, a senior at Jefferson High school here. Baker, one of the most sought after prep prizes in Oregon history, also is a top-flight basketball play er and an exceptional student. Why does this ambidextrous athlete prefer to throw a foot ball with one hand and a base ball with another? Let's let him tell it. "With a football I can throw longer and have better con trol with my left. And it's just the same when I'm throwing a baseball with my right," he says. Prefers Baseball In football Terry , plays quarterback and has led his team to the state finals the past two ' years. In baseball he's a pitcher and a pretty fair one at that. ' In basketball he uses, all of his 6-2 height and 175-pounds to play forward. His preference is baseball, basketball and football, iris that order. . - However, many have told him football is his best sport. They point out that 6-2 isn't big enough to play forward in college basketball and that his throwing would make him almost a sure thing as a quar terback. , Might Try Football At the present ..e doesn't plan to play football in col lege but admits "with-every- one telling me I can I might-) give it a whirl." ' He hasn't made any decision on where he will attend col lege. He says he has talked with . alumni from only five different ones but refused to mention them: Don't let that "only five" fool you. As he was leading Jefferson's football : team through an undefeated league season a lot more than "five" scouts or alumni were look ing at this prospect. Getting back to his ambi dextrous throwing Baker says, "I guess it was just the way I was brought up. I used to fool around the neighborhood and started to throw a foot ball with my left hand. Then when baseball came around it just seemed natural to throw with my right. "Kind of Weird" "I guess it is kind of weird when you think about it." He has passed for over 1,000 yards in 11 games and many cansider him a better quar terback right now thau George Shaw, currently with the Baltimore Colts, was in high school here. He admits he has never tried to throw a pass in a game with his right hand, but says he would like to try. Think of the possibilities of him running from . a tail back slot or quarterback in the split-T on those pass-runl options-to his right or left. And doat think some coaches haven't thought of it. If they haven't, they will.

RIVERSIDE Emergency Surgery By Son Saves Life Of Father-Doctor Rosemount, Minn. - (UPD - A St. Paul doctor is resting in "pretty good" condition in a Farmington hospital today after an emergency operation by the doctor's son, who now farms near here, saved his life. It all happened on the kitch en floor of the Robert F. Olson home near here Sunday. His father, Dr. Charles A. Olson, choked on a piece of ham while eating dinner. ' The dinner, Robert said, was to celebrate his father's 25th wedding anniversary to his stepmother. Complete Stoppage "There was complete stop page of breath," Robert said. Then, Robert went on, he and his brother, Charles L. Olson placed his father on the floor. "There," Charles said, "He in effect 'died.' Then we de cided my brother had to operate. Although the some 30 peo ple at the dinner "thought it was a drastic thing to do," Robert said he grabbed a par ing knife and cut an indcision into the windpipe. "Then I stuck my finger into the opening so some oxy gen could get into my father's lung," Robert continued. Next, the farmer-turned-doctor said, a fountain pen barrel was used as an air passage into the trachea, or windpipe.

"My brother brought him back from the dead," Charles added. Charles said no effort was made to sterilize the paring knife or the fountain pen. Had Robert ever done any operating before? "No," he said, "but. we'd been exposed to medicine, all our lives, and we knew something had to be done." Authorities at Fanford hos pital, Farmington, said Rob ert's paring knife incision will mend propertly, although the doctor will be confined to the hospital for an indefi nite period.
