Thar ara still lots of tickets left, howerer, it was . said. No, home teleriiion of . the boot will be shown and the Craterlan is the only - theater in this area where Tideo of the bout t will be arailable to fans. Tickets are on sale at the Craterlan from 9 a.m. --. to noon. 1 to 3 p.m. and -. . s&O to 10 F-m. Monday - through Friday and from 1 to 4 pjn. and evenings on Saturdays and Sundays. r - New York - -Beware the fifth round! That's . the danger point, statistics say, for both cham pion tFloyd Patterson and challenger Ingemar Johans son when they meet for the heavyweight title June 25 at Yankee Stadium. Fans who see the bout at the sftdium and in theaters and arenas .throughout the land, where it will be tele cast - via closed-circuit by TelePrompTer corpora t i o n, will watch two men who, be- . tween them, have scored 39 knockouts in 57 bouts. . Five of Johansson's 13 kayoes have come in the fifth round. Patterson has flatten ed seven adversaries, includ ing Archie Moore to win the " title, in the fifth round. Can Knockout Statistics The Swedish Seeker's knockout average is .619 as against .722 for the world champion. However, Patter son's kayo victims have trav eled an average of 5.S rounds, Johansson's 4.9-again point ing to the fifth round or the , early poments . of the sixth. Naturally, such statistics can : be knocked as cold as either fighter when two such dangerous hitters collide. Jo hansson is the better bet for , a quick finish because of the heavy artillery he carries, particularly in his right. - Nat Fleischer, veteran box ing, authority and editor of King Magazine, who has seen all of the heavyweights since ' John L. Sullivan, compares Johansson's punch o that of Max Schmeling. But Fleischer emphasizes that Johansson is not strictly i a right-hand puncher. It is Nat's contention that the Swede's left is good enough to prove his surprise weapon if Patterson concentrates too hard on waiting for the more publicized right to explode! Hnm S 3-4293 DAILY'S U-DRJVE McdiWf Airport ; To you Regal Coleman Stoves v ' 3 Burner ' : V Only $95 With 50 SS Stomp, AIR MATTRESS, Plastic $4.95 Value SPORT CAPS 49c Value At a Savings ' Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DcVoss Those of you who have a spirit of adventure that can carry you beyond trying out a new lure or finding out how the other guy is catching them might be interested in trying out a new fish available to fishermen of the Rogue river basin. This fish isn't exactly new to the river, but it hasn't been given? much publicity and its presence is unknown to many sportsmen. ITS A SHAD THING . During . the months of April, May and June, the J Rogue river is host to a spawning run of American shad; These fish are related to the herring and are clas sified as Alosa Sapidissima. They average two feet in length and four pounds in weight with the heaviest running up to 13 or 14 pounds. A mature female lays 150,000 eggs which are non-adhesive and float free in the water. The fry hatch in seven to ten days and go to sea. The fish mature in three years and return to fresh water to repeat the spawning cycle. ' SAFARI TO RAINEY FALLS The shad travel up the Rogue to Rainey falls where most of them are stopped and here is where they are avail able to those of us who might like to try them out. A few anglers fish for them down by Agness, but beyond that point they are ignored. I've talked to several fishermen who have experience with shad fishing and they rate them as the next best thing to stelhead in fighting qual ities. They jump freely and have a tender mouth, necessi tating a light hand on the rod. These should be ' quali fications enough to gain the interest of quite a few fisher men in the area. I'm going down to have another try this week end and I don't expect a crowd. Leastways, there hasn't been one so far. HOW TO According to those who claim to know, these fish will take a bright fly in fast water in the same man ner as the steelhead. The f fly should be orange, yellow or white. A touch of red en the fly sometimes helps. Shad will also take lures; small spinners or wobblers of gold or brass seem to be the preferred type. A small spot of red on the lures has a special attraction at limes. These fish can be identified by the deep vee in the tail, something not found in our trout and salmon to such a marked degree. WHAT TO ' The gourmets of the shad fishing fraternity feel that the fish is at its tastiest best when it has been smoked and then cooked under pressure for a few minutes in order to soften the bones, of which there are many. Of course, shad roe is quite a delicacy and hard to beat when fried in butter. But fish eggs aren't appealing to some palates and there are even those who don't like fish; and they have my sympathy because I think it's the best. ALL IN A RUSH ' The salmon seem to have : 1 MAZY Buy Camping Equipment at v A Service Station ' can, and save $$ at your Fortune 275 Value A Only U On.y W come in a rush the last week or two. The count last Saturday, 7,592, was 2.000 ahead of the, count at tho same time last year. Reports from the mouth of the riv er indicate a revised esti mate of 15.000 fish over Cold Ray dam as the total run. HANDS OUTI The latest, word is that if you want to catch a salmon, keep , your cotton picking hands out of the water. Re search indictes ,.that human hands contain a chemical com pound called serine, and that this compound, when added to a stream, causes an alarm re action among salmon In that stream.. Its effect is the same for all five species of salmon. The alarm reaction is more pronounced when human hands are actually rinsed in the stream. The salmon scoot downstream and don't come back for several minutes. - i THE ANGLER'S LOG It's too bad about the slide on the highway going to Diamond lake, but I guess it may be for the best, seeing as how the best fish ermen are from this area and are catching all the fish out of the lake. I suppose we ought to consider it as a kind of handicap. Willow Creek Has been very good. Lots of limits. Evening trolling with a woolly worm or fly produces best. I Fish Lake Lots of limits of seven to nine-inchers. Triple teaser is the best bet for trolling and single eggs work best for still fishing. Lake of the Woods Fishing is still improving. Anglers are catching six or seven fish per hour. Bright orange or gold lures are doing the business. I'll bet the water skiers are taking over most of the day. , Klamath Lake Still good. Average catch is Just under 4 pounds per fish. John Grilsch of Med ford made the big fish board at Harrlman's with an 8V& pounder. Caught on an Andy Reeker in Pelican bay. Russell lures are pick ing up a few. Diamond Lake ' Fishing is spotty. Still fish ing with single eggs is the best bet. Howard Prairie Good catches averaging about 12 inches per fish. FFfcW are picking up most of them. These fish are fat . and very tasty. Deep water by the dam seems to be the best area. Go slow on the road. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER If some- of you are having trouble convincing the better half of the need for that fish ing trip, I may have a solu tion for you. Next time, you clean the fish instead of let ting her do it! GOOD LUCK! The Madeira Islands, situ ated in the Atlantic 1,000 miles from 'the. European mainland, are noted for their scenic beauty and mild climate. Sleeping Bags Value Only $(o)95 (o) With 50 SS Stamps $n99 With Gas Purchase With Gas' Purchase Vertidt at So.

Ri SPORTS Lee, Spoon In Cinema Handicap Inglewood, Calif .-(UFD-Ken- tucky Derby winner Tomy Lee's belated summer racing debut takes ' place ' Saturday when he leads a field of three-year-olds into the 250,000 Cinema Handicap at Holly wood park. The mile and an eighth Cinema, final major prep for the $100,000 Hollywood Der by June 27, also is scheduled to bring out the filly star of winter racing Silver Spoon to test Tomy Lee. Both have not started since the Kentucky Derby. Tomy Lee was assigned 126 pounds for the Cinema, the same weight he carried in the Kentucky Derby. Silver Spoon carries 120 pounds. As a filly she is entitled to a five-pound sex allowance, making her scale impost just one pound less than Tomy Lee's., , Silky Third Ole Fols, carrying 119 pounds, was considered " the major threat to the two big stars of the race. A crowd of 28,420 turned out Thursday to see Silky Sullivan try a stakes race for the first time in more than a year. They saw the stretch- running chestnut finish third to Gold Cover and Twenty One Guns in the $26,750 Gold en State Breeders Handicap, Silky Sullivan stayed closer than usual to the pace, being about 15 lengths back instead of 30 or 40. He started a drive around, the final turn of the mile and a sixteenth race but seemed to hang in the stretch as he just barely beat Ying and Yang for third and was three and a half lengths back of the second horse.

BUDGET TERMS: Mrs 1600 N. ation of Pressure Urged In Strauss Case Washirigton-fflFD-Sen. How ard W. Cannon (D-Nev.) said today tne senate should in vestigate "lobbying ; tactics" used to push the nomination of Commerce Secretary Lewis L. Strauss. Cannon said he had infor mation that "severe and coarse pressures" have been applied to individual senators. He said he thought the people who had lobbied did so under pressure from the executive branch of the government. Rejection Urged An investigation, Cannon said in a prepared speech, might show "why the con firmation of Mr. Strauss is so important to certain special interests." Contending that Strauss had been a "miserable, total and utter failure" in develop ing atomic electric power, Cannon urged that the nomi nation be rejected. "I had expected that the facts would be presented n a reasonable and dispassionate manner. Instead, I have heard of the most severe and coarse pressurse being applied on in dividual senators," Cannon said. . Names Not Revealed "I myself have been lobbied by respected ah eminent citi zens in my state who normal ly would have no direct in terest in this case. But my in quiries have led me to believe that pressures have been placed on these men from the executive branch." Cannon did not disclose the names of the men. He said he did not want to embarrass them needlessly since they are "honorable men who did only what they were com pelled to do because of out side interference from the executive."
