tion. Winetrout has been look
ing good at the spot in drills
this week.

by 14 over Kentucky, and second-ranked
Northwestern is a
13-point favorite over Michi
gan. In the biggest Friday night
game of the week. Navy was
picked by five over Miami
(Fla.)
Here are the point-spreads
on Saturday's games:
Business Offer
Reason Given
By Earl Blaik
; New York - (UPD - Col. Earl
fRed) Blaik has broken a nine
month silence to reveal why
he quit as West Point's foot
fcall coach last Jan. 13.
; In a copyrighted article in
Jhe current issue of Look
tnagazine, Blaik admitted
Ihere had been a conflict of
ariews between him and the
Superintendent about West
Point's football program but
insisted the "disagreements"
jwere "a minor factor" in his
Resignation.
"Let me emphasize that the
superintendent's position on
ihis matter was as honest as
ny "own, declared Blaik in
Jiis Look article. "But I be
lieve his thinkiiTg was pre
dicated oh the days when the
rmy schedule did not com
; Jarein toughness with what
jthe cadets take on today."
'Unthinkable
; Blaik stressed that his
Siealth and a business offer
:too challenging to refuse, not
these "disagreements," were
the main reasons for his resig
nation, coupled with his con
viction that "it is unthinkable
io overstay a career."
: Recalling the much-publicized
expulsion in 1951 of 90
cadets," 37 of them members
"of the football squad, Blaik
criticized the handling of the
-affair. ' ,. .
. "I shall always believe and
Dot without good reason, that
if football players had not
keen involved in such whole
sale numbers, the violation
tvould have been internally
esolved," Blaik declared.

Disguising
Game Birds
Unlawful
It is illegal to disguise in
any manner the sex or iden
tity of game birds and animals
while in the field or while re
turning home from their hunt
ing excursions, the Oregon
game commission has empha
sized. This law applies to big
game animals as well as up
land game birds and water
fowl. Specifically, the Oregon law
states that it is unlawful at
any time for any person with
in the state to mutilate or have
in possession the carcass or
skin of any game animal in
any manner as to disguise the
sex. The law states further
that it is unlawful for any per
son to have in possession the
plucked carcass in any man
ner so as to disguise the spe
cies and kind of any game bird
while in the field- or forest,
or while upon any highway,
train, car, boat or other con
veyance when returning home
from any hunting trip with
gun or other hunting equipment.
In other words, hunters
should retain some kind of
identifying feature of the bird
or animal so there will be no
question as to its sex or kind.
With big game animals the
head or antlers are sufficient
identification while in camp
or in transit. . -
With game birds, the game
commission advises to leave
the legs and feet and the un
plucked head and heck at
tached to the bird. Hunters
may piuck or skin the rest of
the bird if they ,so desire, but
leaving the head and feet at
tached gives positive identifi
cation as to species anct sex.

guiding hand professional
football assumed the heights
of popularity and financial
stability, was buried today at
Calvary cemetery near histor
ic Valley Forge, Pa.
Interment followed a sol
emn requiem mass at St. Mar

church in suburban Narbeth
which was attended by the

COLUMBIA CLOSURE
Portland - Oregon anglers
are reminded by the game
commission that effective Nov.
1, and continuing through the
entire month, the Columbia
river and all its tributaries
will be closed to salmon ang
ling. This ruling includes the
Columbia and all tributary
streams that drain into the Co
lumbia from eastern Oregon
to the Pacific ocean. P. W.
Schneider, state game direc
tor, said that this ruling was
put into effect in order to pro
tect remnant races of silver
salmon that enter the Colum
bia system during the month
of November. These races, of
fish are low in numbers,
Schneider said, and require
full protection from commer
cial and sport anglers il they
are to survive. ,
Need of public sentiment
to back the bureau of reclam
ation in securing Congress
ional appropriation to fence
or cover the Howard Prairie
delivery canal was brought
out Monday evening at a
meeting of the Jackson Coun
ty chapter of the Izaak Wal
ton league.
The fencing or covering
would prevent deer and cat
tle losses in the canal which
is part of the Talent division
reclamation project.
Background on the problem
was Outlined by Charles Shep
ard, lands agent for the Ore
gon state game commission
in southwestern Oregon. He
showed colored slides, of the-
canal, illustrating the heavy
deer losses this summer in
the canal and the efforts of
the animals in trying.Jo get
out. v
Shepard reported that the
bureau of reclamation has
funds for and is constructing
200 additional deer crossings
for the canal which lies across
the path of the Green Springs
migratory herd. He described
these crossings as a stop-gap
measure which is bound to
save some deer and will "cov
er" 1,000 more, feet of the ca
nal. There have been about 35
crossings on 17 miles of canal.
Tendency . of the deer to
wear themselves out in their
efforts to get out of the canal
was told by Shepard who
maintained that no amount of
escape ramps are going to
prevent loss of the animals.
It. doesn't seem feasible for a
fawn to get out of the water,
the game man said.'
Secondary Lou
Shepard said that BR reme
dial measures' have included
a patrol along the canal but,
he said, one patrol is not good
enough and that patrolling is
not the answer. The game
agent reported that it is hard
to follow up "secondary loss
es" - deer which escape from
the canal but. which are lost
because of injury.
Covering the trapezoidal
section and fencing the rec
tangular section of the canal
have been suggested and both
redwood and concrete' slabs
have been proposed. There is
I question as to whether red
wood, which is cheaper, would
support the weight , of cattle.
It was pointed out that con
crete would help eliminate
maintenance of the canal as
well as stock and deer losses.
Water in the canal is shut
off now and will be through
the fall migration.- However,
the water is to be turned in
next April and in the fall of
1960 there will be no shut-off
since the water will be need
ed to operate the power plant.
It was stated that there are
no BR or irrigation district
funds for covering or fencing
the canal, and that non-reimbursable
cost is involved.'
Hunting Outlook Good
Armin Richterv new mem
ber of the Walton chapter,
said that conservationists
must get together as taxpay
ers on the canal matter. Rich
ter, president of the Jackson
County Stockmen's associa
tion brought out that there
has been cattle loss in the
canal.
Shepard reported that the
hunting situation looks good
for this area. He said that
there is a good population of
upland birds and an excellent
carry over of buck deer. He
stated that bird hunting out
look is good if no fog de
scends. A lot of hen pheasants
are - lost in foggy weather
when hunters mistake them
for cocks, according to Shep
ard. He reported good coyer
and good food for birds.
Shepard only recently was
appointed lands agent and has
been replaced as field agent
in this area by Bob Mayben,
who was introduced at the
Walton meeting.
Buck Antelope
Kill Totals 444
, Portland - Antelope hunters
took a total of 444 buck ante
lnnp .-this vear according to
final statistics compiled by the
game commission. Of some
798 hunters who took to the
ranges after these nimble
f noted desert dwellers. 55.6
per cent or slightly more than
half came away successful.
Last year 554 hunters re-
nnrtpW takinff 214 antelODe

Bulldogs Prime
For Trip to GP
It's hard drill this week for
the McLoughlin Junior high
ninth grade football team in
preparation for the . Friday
game with South Grants Pass
in the Climate city.
After a week's rest with
very little contact on the prac
tice field, the Bulldogs have
their work cut out for them,
according to coach Ralph
Perkins, if they expect to
show improvement over their
recent game with Ashland.
The Friday fracas could be
tough, Perkins pointed out.
He mentioned that the Crater
freshmen were held to just a
14 to 0 decision by South and
that Crater is considered one
of the tough teams in the
Frosh circuit."
Mac, so far this season, has
been a second half ball club.
The Bulldogs -have shown lit
tle or nothing the first half
then have come back and'
Dlaved fine football in the'
last two periods. Perkins said
that he and his staff expect'
this situation to change in this
week's game. Providing no
injuries occur, the offensive
and defensive starting clubs
will be much the same as they
were against Ashland.

Field Goals
Numerous
New York - (UPD - College
football's kicking specialists
are booting field goals at a
record pace this year.
With less than half of the
1959 football season gone, a
survey of 110 major college
teams shows 73 field goals
kicked, at a rate of one every
three games.
A total of 48 teams have
registered at least one three
pointer, and some squads
boast as much as three for
the campaign to date.
The major colleges set an
all-time record last season of
103 field goals, an average of
one in every 5.6 games. But
with goal posts widened from
18 feet, six inches to 23 feet,
four inches this season, the
three-pointer has become even
more popular.
