3 Lakes Back
In Production
Portland Coastal anglers
will have three additional
lakes to try their luck on
opening day, April 25. These
waters are Lost, Earhart, and
Georgia lakes located south
of Florence between Siltcoos
and Tahkenitch lakes.
All of these lakes will be
back in trout production this
year following experimental
toxaphene tests by the game
commission during the past
year. The lakes are the first
in Oregon to be successfully
treated with this new chemi
cal.
The lakes were chemically
treated in February of 1958,
each with different concen
trations of toxaphene to de
termine lethal amounts on
fish as well as plankton, bot
tom organisms, and other fish
foods. Many tests were made
throughout the year using
live fish to determine the
longevity of the chemical in
each body of water. Chemical
properties of the waters were
recorded before, throughout,
and after the treatment.
In January of this year, the
lakes were restocked with
equal numbers of cutthroat
and rainbow trout in each
body of water. The trout aver
aged five to the pound which
would put them in the 8-inch
class. Each lake received
about 200 fish per surface
acre of water. Tests will con
tinue throughout the summer
to determine which species of
trout gives the greatest return
to the angler.
$100 will go toward one day's
play and S100 toward overall
three-day honors, making S300
of the prize money apply to
total three-round scores.

ball, net and gross merchan

Semi Finals
New York -UPD- The Na
tional Invitation Basketball
tournament, true to its upset
happy tradition, headed today
for a surprise semi-final with
Bradley the only seeded team
still "alive" and Providence
the merriest madcaps of them
all.
"How the heck did we do
it? I don't know," shouted
Coach Joe Mullaney of Provi
dence in the wild jubilation
following the Friars' double-
overtime, 75-72 upset of third
seeded St. Louis Tuesday
night.
A crowd of 14,269 at Mad
ison Square Garden roared at
the Friar triumph and then
shuffled their feet uneasily
through the second game as
New York University drubbed
fourth-seeded Oklahoma City,
63-48, in the most lopsided
game in this year's tourney.
Providence earned the right
to meet St. John's which pre
viously ousted third-seeded St.
Bonaventure in one semi-final
Thursday night while NYU
qualified for a tussle with top-
seeded Bradley.
Providence seemed beaten
at least twice by St. Louis, a
team which boasted a two-inch-per-man
height advant
age and one of the nation's
top "big" men in 6-8 Bob
Ferry. The Billikens took an
18-9 early lead only to have
Providence tie it at 18-18. St.
Louis led 38-30, early in the
second half h"t the Friars
came back again. -4
Eugene,- (LTD - Defending
champion Klamath Falls
edged Astoria in a 41-39 thril
ler and Sandy stunned highly
favored Jefferson of Portland
59-50 in first round action at
the Oregon Class A-l high
school basketball tournament
Tuesday night.
Six games were scheduled
today with Marshfield play
ing St. Helens and North
Salem meeting Baker in
morning contests.
A howling crowd of 6006
saw Astoria barely miss a tie
with Klamath Falls at the fi
nal gun as Gordon Scott sank
a desperation 40-foot shot.
The timers ruled he cast off
a fraction of a second too late.
Sandy was led by Ed Hoff
man and Bill Henselman in
knocking off the Portland
champions. Hoffman scored
22 points and Henselman 16.
Coach OK's Decision
Astoria, rated the state's
top team, meets Jefferson in
a consolation game Thursday
morning while Klamath Falls
and Sandy meet Thursday
afternoon for a semi-final
berth.
Coach Jerry Mosby of As
toria agreed with the offi
cials' decision that Scott's
shot came just after the final
buzzer. ' S
Klamath Falls was ahead
most of the game-11-9 at the
quarter, At one point in the
third period it was 33-22.
But the Fighting Fisher
men closed the gap to 40-39
with 1:11 to play. Dean Dun
son sank a free throw with 25
seconds left for Klamath Falls
final point. Then came the
shot by Scott that didn't
count.
Don DeLap scored 17 points
for Klamath Falls while Bob
Petersen helped the Pelicans
mightily on the backboards
and scored 8 points. Scott and
Mike Tarrabochia each scored
15 for Astoria.
Henselman Shines
Hoffman and Henselman of
Sandy were too much for
Jeff's touted crew. They got
21 rebounds between them in
addition to their 38 points.
At the half Sandy had
moved into a 37-26 lead. Jef
ferson fought back and cut
the margin to 45-41 early in
the fourth period. But Hen
selman came back with a
field goal and a free throw
and Sandy came home free.
Terry Baker, Jeff's versa
tile all-around athlete, and
Will Brown each scored 15
points for the losers. Jeff lost
Baker, Mickey Hergert and
Vic Ellis on fouls late in the
game.

Franklin plays Scappoose.
