John Thomas, America's an- swer to the Soviet spaceship, soared to a new world high ( . jump record Saturday with a . leap o' 7 feet, 114 inches. The 19-year-old Boston uni . versity sophomore failed three times in bids to add one full, inch to the world jump record he set during the Penn relays ' just three weeks ago when he clipped the crossbar with his - trailing leg at the 7 feet, 2Vi inch mark. The Negro youth, whose bus driver father and family live only a few blocks from the Briggs field scene of his latest triumph, was an easy winner in his event of the New Eng land intercollegiate track and field championships. Thomas, leading U.S. hope in the Olympics at Rome this summer, said his timing was responsible for his latest record, but blamed a light breeze for his allure lo go even higher.

No Reel Needed By Fisherman Lake of the Woods resort reports thai one doesn't even have to have a fishing reel to catch ii trout at that Cas cade mountain lake. At least, one was not need ed by Don J. Braund. 11(15 East Pine St., Central Point, last week. flraund brought his uncle, A. H. Freic, Los Angoles, to the lake but forgot his fish ing reel. This did not stop him Braund just rigged up a pole and started trolling. When he hooked a fish, he drew it in by band. The experience proved a lot of fun for both men and they brought in a nice string of rainbow, koknmii and east ern brook trout. Fish ranged from 10 to 15 inches. They used flatfish and ford fend ers and worms. Ttie resort management has advised angle rs to rome to the laxp now while the lake is nuiel and without speedboats. All resort departments are open.
