Estes Kefauver's new sports bill has attracted mixed reactions from baseball and football leaders. Commissioner Ford Frick led baseball's attack on the measure, Insisting that con gressional approval of the bill would "impede baseball's healthy and normal develop ment and confine it to a legis lative straight jacket." However, Pete Rozelle, commissioner of the National Football league, hailed the proposed legislation and said It will be "an aid to pro foot ball." Other baseball bigwigs, In cluding President Warren Giles of the National league and American league prexy Joe Cronin, shared Frick's opinion of the bill but Wil liam A. Shea, one of the founders of the new Conti nental league, greeted it with enthusiasm. Kefauver, chairman of the Senate antitrust and monopo ly sub-committee, formally in troduced the bill in Congress Thursday. The Tennessee Democrat said the measure "will correct the inequity which was created by the decisions of the Supreme Court," which twice has ruled that baseball is exempt from the antitrust laws. Frick was especially upset over a provision of the bill which would limit to 100 the number of players a big league team could control. Will Pastrano Fights Johnson Louisville, Ky. fllPD Willie Pastrano, an old pro of the ring at 24, will be out to show Alonzo Johnson that old pros don't make the same mistake twice tonight when they stage a Derby Eve light heavy weight 10-rounder. Pastrano came out of a four-month layoff here last July 24 by letting the less ex perienced Johnson slow him down with a stiff body attack in the early going, and wound up by losing a close though unanimous decision in a dis tinct upset.

Every Sunday Adults . 75c Students . . . 50c ChMran mmdm 11 Woods, Wafer, Wildlife By Hank DeVoss Thare is going to be quite a Changs in the lives of those intrepid rock Jumpers who Mil tlKr9tjA. liihtrr.-.c-. whan they go to seek out the salmon and steelhead of the Illinois river this coming fall. Sach year these anglers find many fish waiting for high watar so that they may nego tiate the falls and move up rivar. For those with patience and knnwhow, the waiting fish provide easy sport and too many are caught due to lack of enough rain to raise the river to a falls-jumping height. k BOOST AROUND Th gama commiiiion bow ha th funds for con itruction of a ladder with th purpos of getting th salmon and stlhad around th falls and into th uppr river. Bids will b called for on May 25 and th commission plans to hay th ladder completed by this coming fall. Th ladder will be of a vertical baffle type construction. This means that ach pool will hav a vertical slot cut in at one side which will nabl th iiih to move from pool' to pool without jumping. Th total length o? the ladder will be about 17S feet and it will carry a minimum flow of SO cubic feet per second. Th ladder will begin approximately 30 feat below th falls and will snake around to and in a large pool above th falls against th south lid of th river. NO SNAGGING (Note to the "Illinois Falls Snagging club.") One innova tion that may not be appre ciated by the club is the method of protecting the fish while they are in the ladder, The ladder will be covered its entire length by a concrete slab. During extremely high water the fish could not use an open type ladder and would have to fight their way over the falls. By covering the lad der the fish are able to use it during all water conditions except extreme summer-time low and will also be protected from the lawless meat hunter. (It is hoped the club will now be disbanded and attempts made to rehabilitate them -like teaching them how to catch fish legally.) AN OPEN RIVER The commission hopes that th ladder will hav th effect of opening up th ntlr river to angling pies sure that was concentrated below th falls. Ther are many excellent spots be tween th falls and th deadline at Pomeroy dam that should b fished by th increasing horde of steal head fishermen. With fish no longer being hold up at the falls, the upper section should hold fish much earlier in th season than formerly. NEW SEASON Another Item of change on the Illinois is the opening of a season on the fall run of chlnook. These salmon are in the river with the silver sal mon and since many anglers cannot tell the difference be tween them the commission has opened the river to salmon fishermen until November 30th. The chinook are not the easiest fish to catch so there will be no lack of sport as a result 'of the change in regu lations. NO FISHING Th gam commission look over th Medco pond on th first d a y f tkia month and wiihea to iaforaa th public that tk pond is i'.nti ta ir. t tsi !! ( ing. As soon as th n iaaru ing work has been complet ed th pond will be poises, d to clear It of all fithlii and than will b put to uaa as a raring pand tor mif r. tory fish. It can't aapaem t soon to suit us. THE ANGLER'S LOG The spring Chinook salmon situation is such that all sorts of theories are now In order to try to explain why we aren't catching any. The mouth of the river is produc ing more fish than they have seen for five years but the fish aren't getting here yet. Hansen's board, which was doing so well some time ago, hasn't caught a fish in over a week. They must be below Mule creek. We wish they would hurry. Fish Lake-Has had very good fishing. Lots of limits. Fish running up to I7'.j inches. Best bet is still fishing with single eggs. Medium color-giant size. Some luck troll ing with FF&worms. Klamath Rivar-Good catch es on night crawlers or flies. There has been a fair bug hatch and the fish are primed for feathers. Either California or Oregon side should do it Lots of competition. Squaw Lakes - Has been good all week. The road is in good shape. Best bet seems to be FF& single eggs-fluores cent red. Green or frog flat fish also does the business. Willow Creek Res. - Has been slow with most catches consisting of small fish. Still- fishing with cluster eggs has been doing the most business. Met-1 fly does fair on a troll. Fish are starting to jump and a few have been taken on a fly. It should improve in a couple of weeks when the big ones finish spawning. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER It is hoped that when and if th engineers find Lost creak dam abl to provid water for - the migratory fishery that iha valley is still in accord es te what kind of a river w want th Rogue river to b. It will set quit a precedent for th government to build a dam with this as on oi th pri mary purposes but th Rogue river is th best rival for this type of precedent. Anyone interested in find ing out how to hunt moos, grizzlies, or caribou in Can ada can easily find out this coming Monday night. Come to iha Isaak Walton leagu masting at the Red Cross building by Haw thorn park and get th word from Jay Geiie. Har old Sexton will be ther to tell us all th good things about Agate dam reservoir. Refreshments will b served. GOOD LUCKI WIFFI TAKES LEAD Spartanburg, S. C. (OTD Wiffi Smith today carried a two-stroke lead into the sec ond round of the Peach Blos-som-Eotsy Rawls golf tourna ment.

The Indians, who have owned all or part of tirst place since opening day, have had their backs against the wall every night this week, but come morning, they're still on top. Sacramento twice since Tuosday had opportunities to move Into the PCL penthouse, but the Solons couldn't beat Seattle and Spokane, although beaten once and rained out two times, stayed in front. Sacramento finally got by the Rainiers Thursday night, 4-0, and when the Indians lost the first game of a double header to Tacoma. 3-1, it looked like the California team would take over. Errors Hurt But the Indians opened un with their howitzers in the nightcap, buried the Giants, 12-2, and this morning, there they were in first place by half a gama. In other action, Salt Lake and Portland battled for four hours and 43 minutes before the Bees won in the 15th, 8-5, and San Diego blanked Van couver, 4-0. Two 15th inning errors cost Portland the ball game against Salt Lake when Bee's catcher Chuck Brockell reached first on a miscue and Don Rowo came in as a pinch runner. Another flub by the Beavers led Row home with what proved to be the winning run. Sam Miley added two more for Salt Lake when he cleared the bases with a triple. Dave Jiminez, the fifth pitcher for the Bees, was given the win. Chuck Buheller had two hom ers for Salt Lake and Chuck King another.
