Philadelphia OIPU Charles (Sonny) Llston, the world's No. X heavyweight contender, indicated today he will an nounce his new manager in , "about two weeks." . Llston, who bought his con tract from Joseph (Pep) Ba rono for $75,000 Wednesday in hopes i of gaining a title shot, said he has "somebdy in mind" as a new manager but emphasized the pilot first must be okayed by Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tcnn.) - However, Keiauver, chair man of a congressional sub committee inv estlgating ports, may not be willing to erve as "matchmaker" in the controversy which is block ing title bout between Lls ton and heavyweight cham pion Floyd Patterson. The senator also figures prominently In Patterson's reasoning that, despite the contract release, Llston still must prove his is "free of all outside harmful influences" before getting a title shot. Patterson said the power punching Phlladelphlan "will have to show me" and Kefau- ver's committee that he has rid himself of allegedly un savory characters for whom Barone is said to bo "front- Llston has promised to pay Barone $37,800 in two annual installments for his contract Ellis, BCristof Head Doubles Detroit - (UPD - The magic touch that carried Don Ellis and Joe Kristof to the classic doubles lead at the American Bowling Congress tournament Wednesday afternoon was missing Wednesday night. .

RIDES FOWWINNERS Chicago -(UPD-Wayne Cham bers. 25-year-old native of Sa sakwa, Okla., booted home four winners Wednesday at j Sportsman's Park. Improved over those consider ed normal this time of the year, but recent showers and flurries of snow may make access to places at higher ele vations more difficult than conditions found, earlier this week. Fish lake should produce its usual good opening week end catches, Rivers said. Mo.st creels will contain a 50-50 split of rainbow trout over and under 12 inches in length. Best access will be by way of Dead Indian and Deadwood roads. The road out of Butle Falls is being graded, but with continued rain, it may become muddy on the surface with a solid base. No attempt should be made to use the McAllister route out of Eagle Point. Howard Improved The improved storage at Howard Prairie lake -should produce much Improved fish ing with more and larger fish available to fishermen than previously. Rainbow three to five pounds were taken last year on the opening weeks, and fish of these sizes are more abundant this year. No attempt should be made to reach Howard Prairie via Hy att Lake because there are snow drifts and mud holes. Only the paved Dead Indian road out of Ashland should be used. j .-" Population studies at Wil low lake last week revealed a heavy population of rainbow between six. and nine Inches in length. Eleven per cent Of the fish in the 'lake are over 10 Inches. '. ' . ' - ",'. - "A new surprise may be in store for 1961 anglers from catches of kokanee (land-locked sockeye salmon) which are available in large numbers be tween six and nine Inches in length. Angling , techniques must be developed for taking them. Roads into the reservoir and parking areas have been improved by county crews this past week. May Be Spectacular The usual spectacular open ing season can be expected again at Squaw lakes, accord Ashland - Southern Oregon attempts to make it four straight dual meet wins when the Red Raider track squad of Dan Bulkley hosts Shasta Junior1 college In a 3 p. m. dual mceton Fullor Field this Friday. ' . Bulkley's crew, winners of three straight this spring, nip ped the Shaslans by a slim 61 23 to 60 13 margin last year. And, there will not be too much difference in the final score again this year, Bulkley said as he ran his much-improved cindermen through their final paces this week, i Injuries, which have posed a not-too serious problem to the Raider squad so far this spring, popped up this week in leg Injuries to 440 ace Ora Bannister, and pole vaulters Brad Flanary and John Diclc erson, Bannister, a sophomore from Paisley, sat out last week's ; meet with Oregon Tech with a pulled leg muscle, but, according to Bulkley, should be ready for the Shas tn meet. j Poison Oak Sidelines The other ailing Raider is high jumper Steve Fllzwalt er, a freshman from Coos Bay, who was also sidelined lust week with a bad case of poi son oak, WHITMAN VICTOR Walla Walla -- lUI'D - Whit man's baseball team defeated Eastern Oregon 8-6 here Wednesday.

IPS' iirSy . tail Snlem-Wilh the opening of fishing season the stale ma rine' board has urged boat owners to check, their boat registration and safety equip ment. Tbe following check-off list would apply to an out board' motorboat under -26 feet in length: , 1. A Coast Guard approved life-saving device (life jacket, life preserver, ring buoy, or buoyant cushion) in good and serviceable condition for each person on board. 2. Proper lights if boat is to be used after sunset or before sunrise. . , 3. Coast Guard approved fire extinguisher. ' '. 4. Whistle or horn if boat is over 16 feet in length. ; 5. Annual boat license If boat Is 12 feet in length or longer.!, 1 . - ;; '.. fl. Certificate of Number if motor is ten horsepower or more.- " . '"... y . . , . Last,; but hot least, the board urged courtesy and common sense afloat and of fered these safety tips: ' 1. Do not overload. 2. Do not stand up In a small, open boat. 3. Never make a sharp turn at high speed. 4. Keep a sharp lookout for other boats, rocks, logs or other obstructions. 3. Watch the weather. . , 6. Always have children and non-swimmers wear their life preservers and, in small, open boats, everyone should wear a life preserver. WEE Bulkley also noted that a pair of school record break ers, freshmen Jerry Arndt and Harold Haugon will switch events this week end. Arndt, holder' of the 880-yard stand ard, will compete in the mile, while Haugen who claims the school mile record, will be en tered in the 880 where he has a 2:02.7 clocking. Arnd'ts mark in Hint event Is 2:01.7, set against OTI. Haugen's rec ord time in the mile is 4:36.7, set two weeks ago. Shasta boasts a top returnee from last year's squad in hurdler and high jumper Lar ry Johnson. Johnson won both the high jump und high hurdles against the Raiders In last year's meet. Another re turnee, Jim Chapman, will be entered in both hurdle events and the 100 yard dash. Top performances by both could spell trouble for the Raiders.

Only the Upper Rogue area above Laurelhurst bridge on the Rogue (located immediately below Prospect) and Big Butte Creek above Cobleigh bridge (below Butte Falls) will open this Saturday. The streams in the upper early open area are in much better shape for fish' ing than usual because of the early spring season. Best catches will result with the use of worms or single eggs. Willow creek flowing into Willow lake will remain closed until the later opening No legal-size rainbow will be planted until after the May 27 opening. Roads Open To River Most roads off the Crater Lake highway between Pros pect and Union Creek are open to the river, Access to the upper reaches . of the Rogue up the Diamond Lake highway will extend only to Foster creek because of snow drifts. ', Opening day anglers are ur gently requested Rivers said, to exercise good sportsman ship on this crowded week end. Particular reference is made for lakes and reservoirs where heavy pressure will tax to the breaking point the fa cilities . for parking, boat launching and camping. He urged people not to . leave their cars or trailers in places where through traffic and ac cess to launching sites may be blocked. People are request ed . to use available spaces wisely. Boats and motors should be operated in a safe and prudent manner at all times, he advised. One of the reasons fishing slacks off at the heavily fished reservoirs after the opening morning is the sound of many boats and motors racing back and forth across the waters, Rivers pointed out. Fish tend to go to go to deeper water for "protection" and refuse to bite. The game commission has issued a reminder that all streams of the Talent project remain closed until May 27.

He has now hit safely in all eight games in which he has appeared.

' Actually, only a small pos tiori of the moon was.' visible to everyone except perhaps the Dodgers, , who had ' their eyes on Wally Moon and saw him drive in five runs with two homers and a single in a 7-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. The home runs were the fifth and sixth of the young season for Moon, who not only lears the majors in. that de partment but also is tops in batting with a .536 average and tied for the runs-batted- in leadership with Bob Alli son of .the Minnesota Twins. Each Has 11 RBI's. , Both of Moon's homers came off loser Ernie Broglio, his first coming with two on in the opening frame and his sec ond with the bases empty in the fourth.
