April 25 Trout Angling Start Okehed for Upper Rogue Area; May 30 Still on Lower River Portland - d'PD - Complete closure on the Columbia river and tributary streams to sal mon angling was ordered by the State Geune Commission at its meeting here Friday. Also adopted was an extend ed winter steelhead season on the Nestucca, and an early trout opener for the upper Rogue and North Umpqua rivers. Only a , few minor changes were made in the tentative rules proposed two weeks ago. The November closure on the Columbia and tributaries prohibits the taking of salmon and jack salmon during the entire month of November. The commission expressed be lief that the closure was just ified in view of the low stocks of fall races of salmon that enter the Columbia system during that month. The commission said that closure would affect remnant runs of silver salmon that move into the Columbia tri utaries. The most important of these rivers include the Willamette and its tributaries and the Sandy river. Nestucca Included The Nestucca river was in cluded iwth five other coastal steelhead angling. Previous the commission had given the green light on late season steelhead angling in the Ne halem, Salmon, Coquille, Six es and Tenmile river, where the season is to run through March 31. The Alsea and Wil son rivers also have late sea son, bringing to eight the number of coastal streams in Oregon where steelhead may be taken through March Southwestern Oregon trout anglers were given a break when the commission decided to open the upper reaches of the Rogue and North Ump qua with the regular trout season on April 25. The early opening would affect the Rogue and tributaries above Laurelhurst Bridge, Big Butte creek and tributaries above Cobleigh road bridge, and Elk creek and tributaries above Prep Basketball By United Press International Franklin 67.

Riddle 45 Baylor Has Great Night In All-Star Detroit -(UPD-To rookie El gin Baylor, the 1959 National Basketball Association AU Star game was "the biggest thrill of my life." To "old pro" 'Bob Pettit, it was once again a chance to show his class, on and off the court. The two stars had just been named co-winners of the game's most valuable player award, following the West's 124-108 upset victory over the East Friday night and the question arose, who should take home the cup. "Here, you take it," Pettit said, handing over the trophy to Baylor in the dressing room, "I've already got two. Enjoy it." This marked the first time in the nine-year history of the classic that two players shared the honor. League President Maurice1 Podoloff said he would have another trophy made for Pettit's showcase. But as far as the six-foot-nine St. Louis Hawks forward was concerned, this was Baylor's "night." Really Great "When a guy plays for ward, center and guard all at the same time, there's not much else you can ask him to do," Pettit commented. "Baylor's really a great ball player. It's a pleasure to play with him." Pettit, the league's leading scorer, hit with two success ive three-point plays at a crucial stage in the final quarter to boost the West All Stars to their third victory over the East in the nine games that have been played. . Pettit scored 25 points on eight field goals and nine-for-nine free throws, grabbed 16 rebounds, and did a re markable defensive job on Bill Russell of the Boston Celtics. Baylor, rated a cinch for the NBA's rookie-of-the-year award, contributed 24 points, 11 rebounds and a fine ball handling performance. Ted Williams Gets $125,000 Boston -UPD- Ted Williams, 40, six-time American league batting champion, Friday signed his 19th contract with the Red Sox at $125,000 to remain baseball's highest sal aried player in history. Williams met briefly with Red Sox General Manager Bucky Harris and American League President-designate Joe Cronin at Fenway Park for the signing. Though terms of the contract were not an nounced, Williams' salary was understood to be $125,000. Burnt Peak road crossing. The general trout season would ex tend through Oct. 18. On the North Umpqua, the April 25 opening would affect that por tion of the river above Soda Springs down. Closing date was set at Oct. 31. Excluding the foregoing ex ceptions, the general trout sea saon for the Rogue river and its tributaries will be May 30 through Oct. 4 as it is for other coastal streams and as was set forth in the tentative regulations. This general late opening for the Rogue was set to allow escapment of down stream migrating young steel head and salmon. The commission, ' however, yielded to the local requests for early opening on the up per Rogue where it was fig ured sea run fish will not be affected. It is felt that, if the snowpack does not get much heavier, there will be some fishing in the upper Rogue area on opening date. The commission indicated that it may do some planting of trout in that section of the Rogue and tributaries Three Lakes Early Lake of the Woods, Squaw lake and Willow creek reser voir are to . open to angling on April 25 with the general trout season. May 30 season opening will apply to Dia mond and Fish lakes and Howard Prairie reservoir. Season on steelhead 12 inch es and over will run from Oct. 5 through Nov. 30 from Shady Cove bridge down stream on the Rogue. Winter steelhead season starts in 1960 on the Apple gate river and on the Rogue below the Applegate mouth has been moved to Jan. 16 in order that the season will start on Saturday.

By HARRY LAVAGETTO Manager, Washington Senators (Written for UPI) Orinda, Calif. - (DPD - Our goal is to get out of the cellar next season and play .500 ball. I think we have a chance to do both if some of our players reach their potential. I'm talking about guys like Reno Bertoia, whom we ac quired in that six-player deal which sent Ed Yost to De troit; J. W. Porter and pitch ers Camilo Pascual and Bill Fischer. Bertoia probably will get the first shot at third base. I think he has the ability to become a good ballplayer but never had a chance to settle down and work at it. Porter also is a player with a lot of talent who can become a real big-leaguer. Pascual has the ability to win 15 games a year. And ' Fischer pitched good ball for us toward the end of the season. Hula Bowl Asks For Sanction Honolulu-fllPD - The chair man of Hawaii's Hula Bowl has asked the National Foot ball league to sanction the event so that top NFL stars can continue to perform here. The event annually pits a team of combined . Hawaiian and pro stars against one made up of collegiate aces from the mainland. But the game has drawn the ire of officials of both the NFL and the Pro Bowl, an all star pro game played about the same time as the Hula Bowl. The league ruled Thursday in Philadelphia that its play ers could not participate in any pre-season or post-season game without sanction. Mackay Yanigasawa, chair man of the Hula Bowl, said that a letter would be mailed to the league requesting that sanction. But he added that he ex pected to run into trouble with Paul Schissler, organizer of the Pro Bowl in Los An geles. "We feel the ban was placed on us because of our conflict with the Pro Bowl and not with the . NFL," Yanigasawa complained. "If the Pro Bowl in reality is not part of the NFL, it seems rather strange that the Hula Bowl should be discriminated against." Positions are up for grabs all around the club, however. Outfielders Roy Slevers and Albie Pearson, our American League Rookie of the Year, are the "only two who seem positive of being in the regu lar lineup. It's up to Norm Zauchin fo hand onto that first base job. He had a bad season last year and I'm looking for him- to bounce back. If he doesn't, I could put Sievers at first base and send Porter into Roy's left field spot. I'm also looking for better things from Ken Aspromonte at second. He's a better hitter than the .219 average he showed in 1958. Herb Plews improved a lot late in the season and conceivably might play second with Aspromonte going to third. As I've said, the situation is pretty wide open. Ron Samford, whom we got in the Yost deal, and Jose Valdivielso seem to be in line for the shortstop berth. Pitching Big Problem The big problem is our pitching. We lack depth. We also could use those 15 wins a year which I think will show up some day for Pascual. But he was out for a month last year with a sore arm and the same thing happened to him in 1957. He is a master out there one day and falls by the wayside the next. We need another left-hand er. The only one we have at the moment is Jim Constable. But there are bright spots, I have the league's best re liever in Dick Hyde. Truman Clevenger gives us a lot of bullpen help, too. The starting four could be Pascual, Pete Ramos, Russ Kemmerer and Vito Valentin- etti. Ramos is getting better every year. Kemmerer should improve. I made a starter out of Valentinetti and he showed well in about 8 of 10 games he opened. Good Rookie Outfielder We have a good rookie out fielder on hand named Don Dobek, who hit '.340 in class B ball before entering the service. What he will do re mains to be seen. On paper it is Sievers in left, Pearson in center and Jim Lemon in right. Lemon's hitting also should improve. He ran out of home runs last year after hitting 26 with about five weeks to play. The catching looks pretty solid. Clint Courtney is the number one man with Ed Fitzgerald behind him. Porter also can catch and we may have some good rookies com ing up there. Fitzgerald and Julio Becquer are the key men in the pinch-hitting de partment. They did a good job last season. mmmom 1 NEW PORTABLE WHITE WALLS COMPLETE SET Orttt up your ear with whittwallt the economical woyl They can be ironi ferred to new tiret : too.
