By Hank
The desire for a gun seems
to be a necessary part of most
masculine egos and there is
no doubt that this Christmas
saw many such desires ful
filled. The small frys feel
naked without a tiedown hol
ster and cap pistol; big broth
er may have a pellet or BB
gun, or even a .22; Dad thinks
a Magnum may help him
make those long shots and
must have one.
This is an accepted part
of our day of life and yet
if junior shoots a few song
birds to see if his gun works
all rieht or if Dad shoots a
guy over a hill a half-mile
off, a hue and cry goes up to
take away the guns. Certain
lv there could be a few so
naive to think that a law will
prevent criminals, from pos
sessing firearms and yet this
seems to be the case.
Let's outlaw cars, they kill
about 38,000 a year!

. New York is again bound
to make the limelight as the
.origin of misguided legis
lation through the introduc
tion of a law to prohibit
any perion under 21 to
have in his possession in
any public place any knife
-or sharp-pointed or edged
instrument that may be
used for cutting or punc
turing unless its posses
sion is necessary for law
ful purposes.
It's difficult to under
stand why the law doesn't
include beltbuckles. bot
tles that can be broken,
combs such as those in
vogue locally, rings, rocks
in hand, etc. The point is
that you can't pass a law to
prevent a person from
committing mahem on his
fellow man by use of a
weapon because almost
anything can be a weapon.

back Dick Bass of College of
Pacific brought the 60,000
partisan fans in Kezar sta
dium to their feet with their
heroics.
The winning touchdown
was set up when a pass inter
ception gave the West the ball
on its own 35. With a minute
to go, Meredith tossed a dinky
little pass to the sidelines that
Bass bobbled then pulled in
to score on a nine-yard play.
The West, which appeared
DeVoss
serve the purpose for which
they are intended because
they do not get at the root
of the matter, which is at
titude of the person with
the weapon. He's not think
ing about law when he puts
the weapon to use.
POLLUTION?
There should be some ob
jection to the proposed land
fill method of garbage dis
posal which the sanitary serv
ice wants to try this next
year. The objection shouldn't
be to the method itself but
to the place where they want
to dump the garbage. The
proposed site is along Bear
Creek downstream from Up
ton bridge on the side away
from Central Point. A bull
dozer is to push a bank up
next to the stream and the
garbage will be dumped
right behind it. Then it will
be mashed down and covered,
first with rocks and clay and
then with topsoil.
NOT AT ALL!
One might wonder
whether or not the garbage
will be washed out into the
creek during a flood. The
answer given to this argu
ment is that there will be
no more floods because the
Talent project will prevent
it. It's heartening to find
such optimism in the valley
since the '55 flood but let's
hope it isn't misplaced.
Since Gold Hill and Grants
Pass use the river water
for drinking purposes it
would seem much more
sensible to locate such a
method for garbage dispos
al in a more remote and
unaffecling area. It would
be foolish to wait until a
possible flood caused a pol
lution problem and then
consider ' such an alterna
tive site.
POACHERS MEET
A meeting of the Illinois
Falls Salmon Snaggers and
Steelhead Poaching club was
held this Thursday and out
siders definitely were NOT
invited. The meeting was at
the falls, a place noted for
its entertainment values, just
at dusk and the members ex
pected it to be a rewarding
one. Past experience has
taught the members to exer
cise the proper amount of
caution in this outing and
they have little to fear in
what they consider a right
ful function.
CALL THE COPS?
Although it isn't the eas
iest thing for some people,
the responsible sportsmen
must realize that the only
way to slop this obvious
thievery is to yell for the
cops and keep on yelling
until something is done.
The problem of snagging
and poaching is a constant
one and the state police
seem to need help in order
to do something about it.
It's time the sportsmen let
them know we want the
laws enforced by doing
something other than
watching them try. Maybe
it could be done.
THE ANGLER'S LOG
The water has been so cold
the past week that only the
most persevering and lucky
fishermen have been able to
connect. The temperature of
the Rogue at Gold Ray dam
has been below 40 degrees
and that puts it barely above
40 in the lower river. Since
41 degrees seems to be the
point that determines wheth
er or not a fish moves, a
nice warm rain is what we
should order from the weath
erman. Illinois River Has been
cold and clear but some fish
are moving. A big run is re
ported in the Briggs creek
Oak flats area. Earlier fish
are scattered and hard to
hook.
Klamath River Has been
very cold and clearer. Not
much activity from fish or
fishermen.
Rogue River-A big run of
winter steelhead is reported
up in the Marial area. Since
this is the deadline until win
ter season opens, those who
can make it down to Mule
creek ought to give it a try.
. Smith River-Cold and very
clear. Lots of fish in the riv
er but they won't hit the us
ual gear.
THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER
Make a resolution to
fish oftener and take a
youngster along.
HAPPY NEW YEARl
beaten whm it trailfvf with
three minutes to go, got the
tying score on a break. The
East had the ball on its own
20 when Michigan quarter
back Dean Look fumbled.
Oregon's John Wilcox, who
had a fine day, recovering
one other fumble and inter
cepting a pass, recovered for
the West. On the first play,
Meredith faded back and then
shot a high 21-yard bullet
into the outstretched hands of
Burford.
For his fine playing in the
victory, Meredith was chosen
the game's outstanding player.
Lou Cordileone, 245 - pound
Clemson tackle, was named
the outstanding lineman.
Second Half Spectacular
Nearly all of the spectacu
lar play was reserved for the
second half of the game.
The lone first half score
came in the second period and
gave the West a 7-0 halftone
lead. Wilcox recovered a lost
fumble on the East 18. Five
plays later, fullback Jack
Spikes of Texas Christian
plunged over for the score.
The East tied it up in the
third (period on a powerful
59-yard march in 10 plays
with Ohio State's Bob White
plowing over from the two.
During this drive the line
play was so vicious and hard
hitting that the crack of hel
met against helmet and shoul
der pad against shoulder pad
could be heard above the din
clear up to the press box.
The East, now appearing to
be in complete charge, went
ahead early in the fourth
period on a beautifully exe
cuted 52-yard pass-run play
from Izo to end Don Norton
of Iowa. Norton took the ball
on the West 40, got two beau
tiful blocks in open field and
ran alone into the end zone.
It was then that the East
started making mistakes. The
first came when Look fum
bled and the West recovered
to score and the. second when
the East voted against playing
fm- a tie and started throwing
with abandon while
still deep in its own territory.
The line plav was so rugged
in the first half that the for
ward wall was taking all the
riav from the backs. Cordi
leone, Jim Houston of Ohio
citato Tri Aucreman of Indi
ana and Dick Michael of Ohio
3tao freauently broke
through to throw the West
ball-packers for losses.
Center Sonny Holland of
Montana State, guard Arm
strong of Texas Christian ana
Ben Robinson of Stanford,
guard Jim Davis of Oklahoma
and Wilcox were outstanding

Celtics' Streak
United Press International

Auerbach's jinx town.
He led his Boston Celtics
into the Motor City Friday
night with a 17-game winning
streak and a chance to set a
new National Basketball
association consecutive vic

Instead, the Celtics wound
up with only a share of the
record after dropping a 128
115 decision to the Cincinna
ti Royals, the circuit's poor

a holiday doubleheader. The
Detroit Pistons pulled away
in the third and fourth per
iods to defeat the St. Louis

cap to give new Coach Dick
McGuire his first victory.
In the only other holiday
game played, the Syracuse

Winner in
Gator Bowl
By NORMAN MILLER
Jacksonville, Fla. - (UPD -Jim
Mooty, a sandy-haired
speed boy who nearly quit
football this year because of
head injuries, bolted 19 yards
from scrimmage in the third
period Saturday to give Ar
kansas a come-from-behind
14-7 victory over Georgia
Tech in the Gator Bowl.
The triumph climaxed the
best football season in Ar
kansas history and sullied
the hitherto spotless bowl
coaching record of Georgia
Tech's Bobby Dodd. Dodd's
teams previously had won
eight bowl games.
A Gator Bowl record crowd
of 45,104 watched coach
Frank Broyles' Razorbacks
complete "meat grinder"
touchdown marches of 62
yards in the second period
and 78 yards in the third.
During those two sustained
drives, Arkansas threw only
one pass.
This was Arkansas first
major bowl victory in three
tries.
Mooty, who had decided to
give up football at the close of
the 1958 season because of
headaches, dizziness and tem
porary loss of memory result
ing from high school head in
juries, contributed vital rush
ing yardage In each march.
Most Valuable
Mooty, who picked up 99
yards in 18 carries for an av
erage of 5.6 yards per try, was
voted the most valuable
player on the Arkansas team.
Maxie Baughan, Georgia
Tech's All-America center,
who played a brilliant defen
sive game was elected the
Yellow Jackets outstanding
player.
On his game winning run,
Mooty took a pitchout from
quarterback Jim Monroe, cut
in over right tackle, picked
up a key block and went over
for the score. Fred Akers
then kicked the second of his
two conversions.
In the first period Georgia
Tech quarterback Marvin Tib
betts sprinted 51 yards from
scrimmage for a touchdown.
However, Arkansas, which
had possession of the ball for
only four plays including
one punt during the entire
first period, came storming
back in the second.
Taking over the ball on
their own 38 after a Georgia
Tech quick kick, the Razor
backs ground out yardage in
small chunks, taking 18 plays
to complete their touchdown
march. Joe Paul Alberty, 178
pound fullback, plunged over
from the one.
