EP Tussles Redmond, Prineville Eagle Point - Three Eagle Point high basketball regulars and one player who has just, joined the squad likely will' see just limited action tonight and Saturday on the central Oregon jaunt of the Eagles. EP will be at Prineville this evening and at Redmond on Saturday. Ailing regulars are Ron Greb, sidelined by flu for two practice days, Mike Palm, who missed one workout because of a cold and Tom Perdue who ruptured a blood vessel in his leg. Coach Dale Bales reported that Ron Weidman, who suf fered a hip fracture in football now has doctor's okeh to Dlav basketball and is making the inp. He nas oeen working out tightly. Ball Handling Bates said that the Eagles nave emphasized ball han dling, since they have lost the ball too much in games so far. He expressed hope that the club will be able to find the hoop better than in its pre vious three contests. The mentor named Palm, Dick Wilson, Charles Pom eroy, Steve Geren and Per due as possible starters. In ad dition to players who have been named, Wally West, Bill Morgan, Elvin Hawkins and Denny Chamberlain, Slated for first action along with Weidman is Morgan, a senior guard, who has been sidelined by a broken toe. Rams Face GB Packers Los Angeles - (UPII - Coach Bob Waterfield hoped today to be able to patch up his injury ridden squad to present a strong defense to the Green Bay Packers Saturday in a game which means practically nothing to the Rams but everything to the Packers. With a victory, the Packers (7-4) will have a clear title to first place in the Western con ference of the National Foot ball league and a champion ship playoff with the Phila delphia Eagles. The Rams (4-6-1) upset the Baltimore Colts 10-3 last Sun day mainly with a great de fensive effort but they had half a dozen men racked up. Defense may be the key to victory or defeat in Saturday's game since the Packers have two of the top running backs in the NFL. Left halfback Paul Hornung, the leading point-maker, and fullback Jim Taylor, are among the league's top six ground-gainers. Injured Rams Injured Rams who, though ailing, may play include full back Joe Marconi, defensive tackle John Baker, linebacker Jack Pardee; and Gene Brito, defensive end. Lou Michaels, who can fill in at defensive end or tackle, also has a bad foot. Definitely out of the Packer game are offensive end Del Shofner; quarterback Frank Ryan; and tackle John Ken erson.

DOHERTY Milwaukee - (UPD - The Mil waukee Braves today ad vertised the' "best infield in baseball" following their sec ond major trade within 10 days in which they obtained slick - fielding shortstop Roy McMillan of the Cincinnati Reds in a three-team deal. To get McMillan, the Na tional league's top defensive shortstop of the past few sea sons, the Braves let loose pitchers Joey Jay and Juan Pizarro, who promised much and never delivered. The Reds then, shuffled Pi zarro and Cal McLish to the Chicago White Sox for third baseman Gene Freese. The Braves also got a minor league player from Cincinnati, to be named later. All Happy Everyone seemed happy, particularly Milwaukee, which is in its giddiest trading mood since moving here from Boston in 1953. A week ago Monday in St. Louis, the Braves gave up four players, including outfielder Billy Bru- ton, for second baseman Frank Boiling of the Detroit Tigers. This gives them an mtield of Joe Adcock at first, Boiling and McMillan and Eddie Mathews at third. "We didn't feel we could win a pennant without a bet ter shortstop," said a jubilant John McHale, general man ager of the Braves. This meant the shelving of Johnny Logan after nine seasons for .use as a utility infielder or as bait in negotiations for a relief pitch er. Duke's Devils Starting Fast By DICK JOYCE United Press International The Duke Blue Devils, strong finishers ' last season, are wasting no time getting started this year for the At lantic Coast conference bas ketball crown. Tossing a zone defense at conference rival Clemson and utilizing its superior height along with the shooting of sophomore Art Heyman and Carroll Youngkin, 13th-rank-ed Duke scored its fifth straight triumph of the cam paign, downing the ligers, 75-58, Thursday night. It was the second league victory for the Blue Devils, who defeated South Carolina Tuesday. The Durham, N.C., cagers, who finished fourth in con ference play last season - but got hot to win the leagues three-day tournament, picked up where they left off last March by tripping Clemson. Only this time, Coach Vic Bubbas had a pleasant addi tion in the 6-5 Heyman, who scored 25 points, to his veteran quintet. Youngkin tossed in 22.

Maris Top AL Slugger Boston (UPD Roger Maris, who blasted his way to the American league's runs batted in title and Most Valuable Player award, added a third laurel today when he was officially certified as the cir cuit's leading slugger in 1960. AL figures announced by President Joe Cronin revealed that, the New York Yankee right - fielder won his first slugging title with a .581 per centage. Teammate Mickey Mantle ranked second with .558, Roy Sievers of the Chi cago White Sox and Harmon Killebrew of the Washington Senators tied for third at .534 and Bill Skowron of the Yan kees was fifth with .528. Maris, acquired from Kan sas City in the Yankees' big winter trade, had. 499 official at bats and 290 total bases which included 77 singles, 18 doubles, seven triples and 39 homers. Slugging percentages are computed by dividing of ficial at bats into total bases. Mantle, who beat out Maris for the home run title by one homer, had 527 official at bats and 294 total bases. The total of 79 homers by the pair paced the Yankees to a new AL club record of 193 homers in a season.

Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DeVoss Local Waltonians and guests were given an up to date pic ture of the progress of the basin studies last Monday eve ning in the Red Cross build ing. The spellbinders were Henry Stewart and Travis Roberts, two gentlemen who believe that the Rogue Basin project will be the turning point in the planning of proj ects involving the multiple uses of water. Although they did not say this in so many words, one is led to feel op timistic regarding the success of the project. The Rogue will be the first major stream in the country where a storage project will be built with water set aside fc: use by a fishery in the streams below the project dams. COPPER SITE The only part of the proj ect on which the gentlemen could speak with assurance was the Copper site on the Applegate. This reservoir will provide a minimum of 50 to 125 second feet of water to the mouth of the river during the driest months of the year. Since the irrigation water stored behind Copper will be used by farmers in the lower reaches of the river, a great er portion of the Applegate will have an amount of wa ter far in excess of the mini mum flow during the sum mer months. Under proper management, this could be the beginning of a tremen dous year-round fishery on this stream. A MINIMUM FLOW The only basis for any op timism felt by a conservation ist regarding a water storage project would be that a mini mum flow of water be guar anteed lo the fishery. The ade quacy of this minimum flow determines whether or not this project is desirable. This is yet to be determined on the main stem of the Rogue Riv er. Enough water must be stored to provide a cooling effect which would bring the temperature down below the critical temperatures found in slow, shallow stretches of the. Rogue during the summer months. A temperature of 83 degrees is not conducive to a trout or salmon's good health. This is how hot the water of the Rogue gets in the summer time. GUARANTEED? One of the biggest and hardest jobs to be done will be that of convincing the farmers, and others, that water stored for a fishery must be left in the stream to be used by that fishery. When people realise that fish and water in combina tion in a stream are worth a great deal of money, then there will be no problem of a guarantee. But until that time there will be a great danger that people will try to appropriate for their own use, that water, cool and clear, which is for the ex clusive use of the fish. It will come, but there will be those who will never recog nize it. A FIASCO Those who were interested in the 28 deer carcasses under a load of Christmas trees will be interested in a sequel to the story. After the fine was im posed, the deer, trees and truck were returned to the driver and he returned to the residence of the Indian who supposedly had shot the deer; Sometime later they started out for the packing plant in San Francisco where the deer supposedly were to be sugar cured. The Oregon State Po lice kept track of them to the ENDS TUES.

SP 3-8223 JUST OFF CRATER LAKE HIGHWAY California line and then turn ed the watch over to the Cali fornia Highway Patrol who followed them down to San Francisco. The plan was to catch the packer and the poachers when the deer were brought to the packing plant. The plan back fired when someone got eager and went in to search the plant before the culprits ar rived with the deer. The pack er got wise and would not ac cept the deer when they final ly arrived. Undoubtedly the packer supplies venison to some very fancy eating places in ban Francisco, but in tins case his complicity with the poachers was not established Too bad! A CALAMITY One to top them all is the case oi the guilty poacher in Grants Pass, The man was slopped and his pickup was found to contain a rifle together with blood and deer hair on the floor. In vestigation revealed that in a freezer in his father-in-law's home there was be tween 400 and 500 pounds of fresh venison. The man's story was that he had shot the deer in Idaho but his unused - Idaho deer tags made him a liar. He pleaded guilty and was fined SI 5. Then he was told to give away all but 40 pounds of the meat. One might wonder just what the judge was thinking of? It Certainly wasn't law! And you can bet that interested groups and individuals are going to make inquiry as to this particular brand of justice. THE ANGLER'S LOG According to the 'weather man, there is some rain head ed our way that may be just what we need to get the win ter fish started up the rivers. The change to warmer won't last, but it may be enough to really start the fish moving. The water temperature of 37 degrees last week end wasn't conducive to red-hot fishing.

Syracuse Coach Will Protest United Press International It was Bob Cousy who was scoring all those points but it's Mendy Rudolph who s feel ing the wrath o Coach Alex Hannum ot the Syracuse Na tionals. Cousy sparked the Boston Celtics lo a 68 - point second half that produced a 115-105 victory over the Nationals Thursday night and lifted them within a half game of the idle Philadelphia Warriors in the Eastern division of the National Basketball associa tion. But Hannum had eyes only for the little referee, who call ed three technical fouls on Syracuse - one each on Han num, Larry Costello and Al Bianchi. Finally, with the Cel tics leading, 82-74, at 9:50 of the third period, Hannum an nounced that he is protesting the game to league President Maurice Podoloff. Both .Costello and Bianchi also were thrown out of the game apparently for using abusive language in their "dis cussions" witlv Rudolph. Cousy connected on 11 field goals and six free throws for 28 points and Frank Ramsey added 21 for the Celtics. Dolph Sch ayes socred 28 for the Nationals.

Neuberger are concern ed about the seasonal factor in Oregon's economy, especi ally lumber. They agreed that stimulation o housing would help and the senator has ask ed that Oregon be included in a national study of de pressed areas. Mrs. Neuberger said she will have to lake a fresh look al the Oregon dunes park pro posal because of the new ad ministration. Both she and Hatfield emphasized they fa vor such a national park. Durno Interest Seen Asked to comment on the stand of Rep. -elect Edwin Durno, (R-Ore.), against the park, Mrs. Neuberger said Durno may be set against the old proposal but "I am sure he would be interested in see ing a new bill." The park would be located in Durno's district. Hatfield and Mis. Neuberg er differed somewhat on fed eral aid lo education. Hatfield said he is primarily interested in such aid for school con struction but Mrs. Neuberger believes it should go beyond that, even to teacher s salaries.
