MEDFORD, SIPdDMTS System of Certification Adopted Again by NCAA By RUDY CERNKOVIC Pittsburgh -IUP1I- The Na tional Collegiate Athletic as sociation, which mixed mercy with discipline during its 55th annual convention here, turned today towards legisla tion and certification.

Concrete 1CONCRDTEC? 3g1tf AcAaJrewi Li n HI II II II I jlift Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DcVoss It doesn't pay to try to in terpret the law because sooner or later it will trip you up. After two or three weeks of wrestling with the synopsis of angling regulations, the answer to a seeming unen forcable law is found to be in the Oregon Game Code for 1960. Page 104 deals with ORS 498.641, and has within it a subsection 3 which clears up the difficulty. ' IT'S ALRIGHT Subsection 3 refers to the law restricting the number of game fish imported into Ore gon, saying, "This section is not applicable to game fish lawfully taken in the waters of another state, any territory of the United States or any foreign country in conformity with the bag limits prescribed by the law of such other state, territory of the United States or foreign country." So it's alright to bring back those three big steelhead from the Smith river. APPLEGATE OPENING Saturday will mark the opening of the Applegale river to winter steelhead fishing from the mouth to the spot where the Little Applcgate Joins the main stream. An glers should be aware of the fact that the steelhead in the Applegate arc late spawners and do not enter the river in large numbers until next month. There arc reports of fish up the river but it is be lieved that these are the rem nants of the fall silver salmon run. Salmon are more easily seen than steelhead and are confused by anglers who are poorly ecquainted with their habits. FIGHTS THURSDAY BOUT Lo Angeles (UPII L. C. Mor gan. 139. YounRstown, Ohio, out pointed Eddie Perkins, 139, Chi cago 110). '" "p J Cair-w'se motorists buy rand Mame produefs DAMS AGAINI It seems that there is al ways somebody who wants to build a dam and almost al ways the dam builder cares very little about the damage to the migratory fish using the stream to be dammed. Slate creek is ono of the most im portant tributaries of the Ap plegate in that many steelhead use it as a spawning stream. An outfit that raises and sells trout for a profit has put a dam across the creek that very effectively stops any mi gratory fish until high water periods. The fish ladder they were required to install does not work well and the builder can stall any improvements until after that time when steelhead will be trying to get past the dam. The present law does not require them to build in any certain way, but it is required that the game com mission must approve it. This is how we lose generations of migratory fish. MORE LAKES The Eagle Point Grange is beating the drums for devel opment of Agate slough, also known as Whetstone creek, into a string of small lakes and ponds. The Hoover lakes and those lakes on game com mission property are the be ginnings of this proposed de velopment that could build as many as 50 lakes. The city of Medford has properly that would be part of the develop ment. The attempt of the Grange group is to bring to gether all of the parties con cerned in order to create an overall plan of action. MORE RECREATION Members of the game com mission staff have gone over the proposed plan with the Grange group. The commis sion has long favorod the de velopment of a chain of lakes and ponds that would provide more recreation by way of a spiny ray fishery. They have Why do you buy Brand Names?

The proposed development plan will in crease the scope of the at tempt and perhaps make it happen quicker. PUBLIC BENEFIT The many problems will be ironed out eventually and the public will benefit by having a year-round recreation area that will provide enjoyment for ninny different types of users. Some of the most pert inent problems will have to do Willi seeing that the public has an assured water right and easy access to the ponds. It will be safe to guess that land values will go up and there will be housing developments adjacent to the area. It wouldn't do to have only those in the immediate area with virtually exclusive priv ileges to a publicly maintained recreation area. A lol of money will be made in land speculation but the public will reap its pari of the benefit too, I hope.

With the rivers running low and clear, the best method for hooking a steelhead is to use light gear. The only drawback is that the nature of the fish means that there will be about 1 fish landed for every 10 hooked. Applcgate River Should ba fair in the lower reaches. There ought to be a few fish in the river hut they might be small and dark. More water would help. Illinois River Had a good day on Tuesday hut things hava slowed down again. There seems . to be plenty of fish in the river but the low water keeps them wary. Klamath River There was a good report that a run was on the way from down river. Below the 911 bridge would seem to be tha best bet. Rogue Hlver The water ha wanned up to 44 degrees or better. The fish should be on the mova and available.
