'Kids Day'
Occasion
Oregon State college, Cor-
vallis - It's back to the home
confines of Parker stadium for
Oregon State's hard-luck foot
ball team that meets Idaho at
Corvallis Saturday afternoon.
Game time is 1:30 pjn. as
the school plays host to the
fifth annual "Kiwanis Kids
Day," whereby youngsters in
supervised groups of 10 or
more will be admitted for 50C.
Last year, some 3500 children
were on hand for the event.
Coach Tommy Prothro will
pull no stops in ail effort to
bring OSC its first victory of
the season. The Beavers lost
three of the games by the
grand total of 13 points and
with any kind of luck might
even have won all three.
Beating the Vandals won't
be easy, as evidenced in past
years. Idaho almost de-railed
Oregon State's "Rose Bowl
Express" in 1956, and the
Beavers were lucky to pull
out with a 14-10 decision in
the waning moments. The
Vandals are always high for
OSC.
Better Shape -
Oregon State will still not
be at top strength physically
for the Idaho game, although
the BeaverS may be in better
shape than they were for some
games earlier. Out for the sea
son, of course, is No. 1 tail
back Grimm Mason, and Dain-
ard Paulson is not yet ready
for full-time duty after a
shoulder injury.
That means that Prothrd
will have to go with sopho
more Don Kasso and veteran
Larry Sanchez at the all-important
tailback post Saturday
- in view of the fact that Earl
Harbin rSUffered a. knee in
jury' against Michigan and is
out for at least a week. San
chez saw his first action of
the season last Saturday.
Remainder of the Orange
lineup probably will include
Don Thiel and Jerry Doman,
ends; Ed Kaohelaulii and How
ard Hogan, tackles; Sonny
Sanchez and George Enderle,
guards; Bruce Hake Center;
Derald Swift, blocking back;
Ron Miller,, wingback; and
Jim Stinnette, fullback.

1,000 youngsters have already
been received for Kiwanis

of 104 from Tillamook. Chair
man of the day is John Galla

BEAT WINTER TO THE PUNCH
USC, UCLA
Favorites
In Big Five
By SCOTT BAILLIE
United Press International
Southern California and
UCLA get off their laurels
Saturday after a two-week
rest and go forth to prove
that Los Angeles once more
is the home of powerhouse
football.
The sixth-rated Trojans are
eight point choices to defeat
Washington in an important
game at Seattle while the
odds board shows the Bruins
favored by the same spread
to hand California's Bears
their fourth straight loss.
Both games are Big Five
meetings. While USC and
UCLA had last Saturday off,
the new loop opened with
Washington taking over first
place by tripping Stanford,
10-0.
Coach Don Clark of Troy,
ignoring the weatherman, has
had his gridders working out
at times on a damp field just
in case it comes up wet in Se
attle. Quarterback Bob Hiv
ner of the Huskies is listed as
a doubtful starter.
Ficca Back For Action
Dan Ficca, Southern Cal's
powerful tackle, is ready for
action, after being laid up.
And Willie Wood, their gifted
quarterback, also may return
although he appeared finished
earlier this season after in
curring a shoulder separation.
Coach Bill Barnes of UCLA
says tailback Bill Kilmer has
slimmed down a little during
the Bruins' two week lull. He
said he expects a rough battle
with Cal, which has been
worked over by such Titans
as Iowa, Texas and Notre
Dame. The Bruins should be
quicker now, Barnes feels,
with Kilmer a little trimmer
Cal, outscored by Notre Dame
but never outfought, heads
southward with ends Gael
Barsotti and Skip Huber ail
ing while quarterback Wayne
Crow has a bad ankle.
USC goes up to Seattle with
impressive wins over Pitt and
Ohio State. UCLA opened the
season with a scoreless tie
then lost a 25-21 hair-raiser
to the Panthers.
The USC-Washington tilt
features a clash of undefeated
teams as will a dandy at Port
land between Oregon's Ducks
and the Air Force Academy.
Coach Ben Martin's Falcons
have a finepasser in Richie
Mayo of Eureka, Calif., who
riddled Idaho, 21-0, last week.
They go into the game six
point favorites over a Duck
aggregation whose chief weak
ness has been aerial defense.
Stanford, a three-point pick
over Washington State, will
seek to beat the Cougars at
their own game. Passing had
been WSU's big weapon dur
ing coach Jim Sutherland's
reign until this season. Now
the .Indians have it instead
with quarterback Dick Nor
man. Idaho is at Oregon State
where each team will show
up with a record of four losses
and no wins.
Coach Tommy Prothro of
Oregon State has indicated
the drought can't go on for-
ever.
( l ) ;
Freeze-ups are only half the story. The
other half is rust rust that ruins radia
tors, clogs cooling systetog, sends eflglne
temperatures so high vital parts Warp and
burn. But Magnetic Film in "Prestone" anti
freeze prevents rust With a tough molecular
coating. What's more, Magnetic Film pro
tects aluminum, prevents corrosion.
So don't be switched to ordinary anti

. . . HAVE YOUR COOLING SYSTEM DRAINED, THEN
Woods, Water, Wildlife
By Hank
It does seem odd that all
the talking about hunter
farmer relationships and good
sportsmanship doesn't have
the effect it was thought to
have. After several years of
fairly intensive effort towards
trying to improve the atti
tudes of the ignorant, the
stupid, and the selfish; the
interested sportsmen and con
servationists are finding them
selves faced with reports that
hunter behavior has reached
a new low.
MORE SLOBS
The slobs are on the in
crease this year and the con
sequences of their thought
less, careless acts will be
found in the increased
amount of posted land ap
pearing next year. Every
interested hunter should be
concerned about this par
ticular brand of human be
ing because he- is the ex
pression of impulses which
we all possess but which
most of us seem able to
override or quell in assum
ing a high ethic that will
offer more than an imme
diate satisfaction. Perhaps
we haven't found the best
way to deal with slobs in
assuming that ignorance is
the reason for their actions
and educations is the
remedy.
ACTIVE CONCERN
It is to be hoped that some
day the majority of sports
men will realize that they
are losing the chance to main
tain our present open-to:the-public
system of hunting and
fishing because of a lack of
active concern on their part
If they believe the job of
law enforcement this area
is just for the game warden,
then they are always going
to be disappointed in the" way
our game laws are enforced,
It's going to be a job for all
hunters and fishermen who
care about preserving our
sport to see that the Slobs
dont ruin our enjoyment
Education can take many
forms and it might be a bet
ter thing to try a broader
variety. Maybe it wouldn't
hurt to talk to slobs instead
of about them. Tell them we
don't like what they are do
ing and that we want them to
stop. If we stand and watch
people commit unlawful acts
we are condoning their ac
tions by our own lack of ac
tive concern. And it's really
our loss.
PHEASANT FABLE
Hunting is reported to be
good for those who are bent
on chasing the xingneck
this coming week end.
There are many fields pos
sessing lots of birds but
don't ask me which fields.
Hunters are cautioned to
avoid shooting towards
houses and roads. There
alp seems to be a fringe
element who insist on shoot
ing the chukars which the
Game Commission hat
planted. A resident popula
tion of these exotics will
. never establish itself if they
are shot up every years.
There is no open season
on chukars in Western Oregon.
V
DeVoss
MORE BIRDS
The season will probably
end with a bang because the
game commission plans on re
leasing 384 birds sometime
during the end of the month.
The birds will be released in
the areas which are hunted
heavily and on the game com
mission management farm in
the Camp White area.
THE ANGLER'S LOG
Those anglers who may
have forgotten ought to jog
their memories for the fact
that the upper Rogue; that
area above Laurelhurst
bridge on the main stem,
upper Big Butte and upper
Elk creek; will be open un
til the 18th. All of the lakes
that were regularly report
ed on in this column are
open also and should pro
vide some excellent fishing
this coming week end. The
weather promises to remain
excellent and the fish
should be cooperative. -
WARM FEET. COLD HEADS
Those anglers who enjoyed
fishing from the banks of
Howard Prairie reservoir this
summer may find the fishing
a little frustrating next year.
It seems that they used tires
for warming fires at times
and succeeded in warming
their feet while their heads
remained numb. The wire
cording from those tires is
going to be a part of the lake
bottom and probably will col
lect quite a bit of tackle in
future years. A little time
spent in removing such debris
above the high water line will
repay the angler who likes
bank fishing.
MORE STEELHEAD
The Rogue ought to pro
duce some excellent steel
head fishing now that there
have been two periods -of
relatively high water in the
past two weeks. Reports in
dicate large numbers of fish
moving in the lower river,
including a lot of fall
Chinook. These salmon
spawn in the river below
Grants Pass and should
begin this activity soon.
The steelhead in the area
are very susceptible to eggs
during this period and the
single egg drifter can find
many takers. At the present
lime the Galice area should
provide good fly fishing un
til salmon spawning be
comes active there.
KLAMATH POTLUCK
The Klamath is having quite
a run of Salmon this fall and
many anglers are trying to
harvest a few in the Horn-
brook area. Very few of the
larger steelhead have gone
through the racks but they
are expected any day. The
river is spotty right now, with
some anglers having a field
day while others never have
a nibble. That part of the
river between Big Bend and
Copco No. 1 is providing
catches of fish in the 16 to
18-inch size.' The water be
tween Big Bend dam and the
powerhouse is quite clear
when the powerhouse is run
ning at capacity because of
many large springs which sup
ply the river along this
stretch. Reports tell of many j
fish moving through at this i
time.
THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER
I count myself among the
most frustrated of hunters
in not having taken one of
those elusive bucks of the
blacktail breed. They are
belter than 1 at this gam
of pussyfooting and per
haps my chances would be
better if I took a tran
quilizer and waited one out
in an appropriate spot. It
seems my nervous system
isn't tuned to the wailing
game and this gives the
deer the advantage.
GOOD LUCK!
