Birds Released Beside the wild populations which will carry the burst of the hunting, gunners will have an additional 8,000 game farm roosters to test their shooting eye. Most of these birds have already been re leased in various upland game bird sections throughout east ern Oregon. Supplemental plants of adult birds will be released in heavily hunted areas during the season. In addition, 24,000 young birds were released throughout the summer months- Hunters are reminded that the game commission releases birds only on properties where hunting by permission is allowed. All nimrods are urged to request permission before entering any private Drooerly to hunt. A complete synopsis of the 1960 upland game bird regula tions may be obtained at all license agencies.

Shoe Store Medford .1J UO Squad Headed by 3 Regulars University of Oregon, Eugene Coach Steve Bel ko's Oregon basketball Ducks, who staged a great rally last season to reach the western NCAA final playoff, opened preparations for the 1960-61 season here Saturday with a squad of 15 players ready to sb'oot ' for a repeat of last season's success. A half dozen lettermen, paced by three returning regulars, led the squad which also includes six sophomores, a pair of junior college trans fers and a non-letterman. . Denny Strickland, a 6-5 guard who has been a key man for the Webfoots for two seasons, and two juniors, Glenn Moore and Charlie Warren (6-4), are the return ing regulars. Moore, a 6-7 vet eran who can play either cen ter or forward and has great speed and agility, led the club in scoring last season. The other lettermen are Bill Simmons, a 6-4 forward who played a major role in Oregon's stretch drive last winter, Wally Knecht, a rap idly, improving 6-6 center, and Butch Kimpton, a 6-1 guard who has been a top re serve for the past two s sons. The other veteran Leon Hayes, a non-letterman guard for two years. Up From Frosh Two. of the sophomores, Tom Tuttle. a 5-11 guard, and Ralph Rittenour, a 5-9 back- court man, move up from the frosh team of last year while the other four first year men are hold overs from the 1958 59 team who did not play last winter. This quartet includes forwards Jack Mack (6-3): Dave Robinson (6-5) and Ro man Jones (6-5) along with center John Stevens (6-7). The two junior college transfers are junior center Howard Clark (6-6) of Diablo JC and guard Vince Hayes, a 6-3 sophomore from Centralia PC. Belko's major problem will be replacing Capt. Chuck Rask, the brilliant team lead er for the past three seasons, at guard along with starter Dale Herron and reserve btu Robertson at forward. The veteran Oregon coach said he may experiment with Knecht at center and Moore at forward early in the prac tice to take further advan tage of Moore's speed. Oregon opens its 1960-61 season Dec. 3 against Port land at home, moves to Colo rado and Wyoming the fol lowing weekend and then re turns here for Arizona State. Decoding Scheme For Messages From Stars Told Washington (Science Serv ice) - A universal decoding scheme for revealing possible messages in radio waves de tected from stars near the solar system was reported here by Dr. Philip Morrison of Cornell university, Ithaca, N. Y. He told the Philosophical Society of Washington that signals containing intelligent information could be incor ported in the radio waves without the use of language. Dr. Morrison said the search made at the National Radio Astronomy observatory, Green Bank, W. Va., for ra dio signals from intelligent life forms on other planets of relatively nearby stars, at best, had only one chance in 20 of detecting such signals, because the radio antenna used was too small. Another try, with improved electronic equipment, will be made soon at this observatory, the Na tional Science Foundation re ported, but Dr. Morrison be lieves a bigger receiving an tenna would give much bet ter chances of success. Lara Radio Dishes He suggested the best chance would be from about half a dozen non-steerable, but very large radio dishes. such as the 500 foot antenna now under construction in Puerto Rico. Dr. Morrison said that only after several years of unsuccessful listen ing to outer space signals with several of such large reflec tors would he be convinced there were no such signa's. Dr. Otto Struve, director uf the National Radio Astronomy observatory, agrees with Dr. Morrison that the chances are good of eventually achieving positive results from Project Ozma, when the largest pos sible sample of solar type stars has been examined over a period of time.

Dale Stewart, Smithsonian anthropologist, told Science Service here. Dr. Stewart has recently returned from an expedition to Iraq, undertaken jointly by Columbia University and the Smithsonian Institute under a grant from the National Sci ence Foundation. The expedition was led by Dr. Ralph Solecki of Coluhi- bia University. Associated with him in exploring Shani dar Cave were Dr. Stewart, Dr. Dexter Perkins Jr., Phila delphia Academy of Sciences, Dr. Rose L. Solecki, also of Columbia and the leader's wife, and Jacques Bordaz, graduate student at Columbia. Knowledge Added Three new skeletons found in Shanidar this past summer, in addition to three others found in 1957 and an ancient infant found in 1953, made it possible to add much to man's knowledge of early evo lution. One of this year's finds, known to the scientists as Skeleton No. 2, has been re constructed and studied by Dr. Stewart. A difficult task faced him for this skull was crushed completely flat and the head was rolled back so that the neck bones were par allel to and behind the jaw bone. Dr. Stewart restored the neck bones so that they now constitute what is prob ably the finest set of neck vertebrae of Neanderthal Man known to science. Comparison of No. 2's leg bones with those of No. 1, found last year in a layer of the cave floor laid down some 15,000 years later, showed that the earlier form, No. 2, stood in life about 5 feet, 3 inches tall -five or six inches shorter than his successor, No. 1. More Primitive No, 2 was therefore possib ly more primitive than No. 1. But there is also a possibility, Dr. Stewart warns, that No. 1 was an unusually tall indi vidual and No. 2 was just a runt. Skulls of the two were equally primitive. The finds at Shanidar will help scientists settle such questions as wheth er a skelton is typical of its group or is exceptional. The three skeletons discovered in 1957 were all found at about the same depth, 14V4-feet, representing an age of about 45,000 years. The three found this summer were some 27 feet under the cave floor -about 60,000 to 70,000 years old. Measurement of these two sets of three skeltons will help show which individuals were about average for their time and which were unusual cases. What scientists would like to find now is the remains of aiOindividual who was defi nitely a woman.

BEST WORKOUT Berkeley, Calif. - IHTD - Cali fornia went through a 40 minute scrimmage Tuesday and coach Marv Levy called the workout the best of year even though the fourth team, running Oregon plays, made some solid gains against the first three teams. Levy pro moted George Pierovich back to first string fullback and moved second string right haif Bob Wills to left half and second string left half Jim Burress to right. TO GO AHEAD Salem-IUPD-Salcm Senators Inc. decided Tuesday night to go ahead with plans for a 1961 Northwest league base ball team provided a working agreement can be arranged with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Walter Zosel, vice president of the board of directors, said "we're still faced with a lot of problems most of them finanical but we'll worry about them when we get to them."

It tangles with Oregon College of Education that afternoon. Both teams have had their incups riddled with injuries from last week's games. SOC has eight on the Injured list and OCE's list begins with standout fullback Bob Pennel. Al Barnes, Doyle Bransom, Gordy Carrigan, Willie Gar ner, Ray Nolte, Dave Hughes, Jess Munyon, and Ron Mulla- nix all will probably miss ac tion this week. Injuries range from hip pointers to twisted ankles and dislocated shoul ders. If this is the case, Raider chief Al Akins will have the job of replacing five of his starting offensive unit. Possi ble starters in the ailing spots are Al McKinnis al fullback, John Buck or Kcrm Bennett at slotback, Harold Haugen at end, and Merv Newell at guard. The big problem is in filling Munyon's tackle spot if it can be termed any more of a problem than any of the others. Headaches Nolte, Mullanix and Hughes have been playing defense and filling their roles will also lead to headaches according to the Raider mentor. Barnes continues to domi nate the rushing lead for the Raiders in the five games played to date. The Crater sophomore has 285 net yards on 52 carries. Second is Buck with 131 followed by Bran som with 108. Olsen is moving up in the passing with 182 yards in two games which have carried for two touchdowns. He has hit 18 of 32 attempts with only one being intercepted. Howard Hartman continues to dominate the Raider and Oregon Collegiate conference pass receiving statistics with 17 snares for 224 yards and a trio of touchdowns. Trailing Hartman is Carri gan with 11 for 140 yards while Bransom has caught seven for 173 yards. Bransom has taken over the lead in the scoring with 24 points on four tallies, Barnes and Hartman share second place with three each for 18. Lynn Knight has con verted eight of 16 conversion attempts. Teamwise the Raiders are averaging 288.8 yards per game to the opponents 354 Republicans Lead In Marion County Salem (UPD Marion county voter registrations for next month's election show the Re publicans still holding a com manding lead but the Demo crats made gains of three to one over the GOP since 1956. The GOP has 31.909 regis tered voters for thisi year's general election and the Demo crats 24,161. More than 600 independents and miscellane ous registrations pushed the county's total to 56,758, a new record.. In the 1956 general election, the Republicans had 30,885 registered voters and the Democrats 20,913. In Fine Whiskey... FLEISCHMANN'S is the BIG buy! 90 PROOF is why!

NEW YORK CITY Metallic Seeds Promise Hope for Cancer Victims Los Angeles - (Science Ser vice) - Hope for victims of rapidly spreading breast can cer is promised from experi ments in which tiny, radio-active metallic seeds are planted in the pituitary gland. An evaluation of a new and relatively safe procedure as a means of controlling this form of breast cancer is be ing carried out by a surgeon endocrinologist - radiologist team at the University of Cal ifornia at Los Angeles Med ical Center. The team' consists of Dr. Robert W. Rand, Paul H. Crandall, David Solomon, Ai red M. Dashc, Joseph L. West- over and w. Eugene Mem. The project is being support ed by the U. S. Public Health Service. Breast cancer, which spreads to the lymph glands and other parts of the body, requires certain hormones whose production is triggered by the pituitary in several glands, including the adrenals and ovaries. Removal of Gland The standard means of de nying these hormones to the cancer is actual surgical re moval of the pituitary gland, which has brought relief to some victims. The new meth od is being compared with the standard method in the current study. Radioactive yttrium seeds can be placed in the pituitary with the help of precise in strumentation and techniques developed at UCLA. The tiny metallic seeds are planted via a hollow needle that is inserted through tne nose and sinus into the gland. The radioactivity of the seed detroys the gland. The new technique has been used with 17 cases to date and continues to show promise. Students Provided Anual Cruise For Sciecne Study Washington -(Science Ser vice) - The Navy Science Cruisers have gone "down to the seas again" for the third consecutive annual cruise ar ranged by the U. S. Navy to show science-ln-action to high school juniors and seniors. Each spring the Cruisers are chosen for their outstand ing science projects exhibited at the National Science Fair- International and at regional science fairs affiliated with this international program which is coordinated by Sci ence Service." In the fall, Navy planes fly the boys from bases near their homes on farms and plains, in manufacturing towns, mountain villages and metropolitan centers to East and West Coast embarking points. The West Coast cruise .for 73 students were based at San Diego, Calif., from Sept. 24 to Oct. 1. On the East Coast, six Cruisers sailed from May port, Fla., 73 from Norfolk, $435 45 Qt. Va., and from Charleston, S. C. Afloat and ashore, these 179 students experienced several of the most privileged days of their young lives in seminars, tours and informal discus sions with Navy scientists and specialists i n laboratories where they were guests.
