Debris Hampers Umpqua Fish Portland-Salmon, steclhead, and other sport fish in the lower Umpqua river are hav ing a difficult time negotiat ing Umpqua tributaries as they buck heads against nu merous log jams and debris choking many of these small er spawning streams. This is the word from biolo gists of the game commission following an extensive survey of the lower Umpqua system. Biologists estimate at least 70 days of hard work in the area to clear the jams from these streams. The jams are mostly the result of logging debris which has swept into the creeks stacking up in many places to provide barriers to migrat ing fish. Especially vulnerable are silver salmon which pre fer the lower Umpqua tribu taries for spawning purposes. The game commission is now planning the removal of these jams in the next several months to enhance anadro mous fish runs in the lower river. Easter Recess Set For St. Mary's The annual Easier recess for students of St. Mary's Grade and High schools will be Monday and Tuesday next week. Classes for both schools will resume at the usual hours Wednesday. Catechism classes for Cath olic children attending public schools will be dismissed Sat urday and Sunday, with the Saturday classes for grade school pupils resuming at 10 a.m., April 28, and the public high school of religion classes resuming at 5:45 p.m. April 29. Two No-Hitter Grade Tussles Two no-hitters were record ed yesterday in Medford dis trict grade school baseball.

Grif fin Creek trimmed Howard 3 to 0 and Roosevelt nicked Jackson 2 to 0. Wirth, a fifth grader pitch ing for the first time, went four innings for Griffin Creek. Carney had two doubles for GC.

Carl Fischer, Re publican candidate for Con gress in the fourth district, raid Oregon should gear up a massive promotion immedi ately becaiue the Seattle World's Fair "may be unable to handle the crowds It will attract." Fisher said if Seattle Jams occur many visitors will look elsewhere for entertainment and Oregon is the likely spot. He called the situation a "once-in-a-lifetime chance" for Oregon real estate men to make permanent residents of visitors to the Northwest this year.

Those eager beavers who think this Saturday opens the trout season around here had better take a long close look at the 1962 synopsis of the Oregon Angling Regulations And then they- ought to take another close look at the ther mometer before they go out into what will be a cold, cold world. The weatherman is promising below freezing tem peratures early in the morn ing, and very little sunshine to thaw out those who survive the freeze. WASTED BREATH It doesn't do any good to tell the frustrated trout fish erman thai the fishing will be much belter in another month. He's been waiting for this Saturday for several months and is ready to act out the mailman's slogan. One can only hope thai the suffering won't be in vain - they ought to at least get a few strikes. Also there is the hope that they read the synopsis and realise just which water is open for angling. WHAT'S OPEN The Rogue, including all tributaries, is open above the Laurelhurst bridge. And just for trout over six inches. Big Butte creek is open above Coblcigh road bridge. And just for trout over six inches. Jenny creek and all tribu taries including those below the Howard Prairie delivery canal. And for trout over six inches. Emigrant lake, Fish lake, Howard Prairie lake, Hyatt lake, Squaw lakes, and Wil low lake. EMIGRANT LAKE This is a new lake, at least in sue. and the trout that were planted last yaar ought to have put on enough growth to be about seven to 11 in ches long. The water isn't what one would like for trout fishing, but the fact of its muddiness won't hurt the taste of the fish. The best spots should be in the tribu tary arms, and close to where the stream it coming in. FISH LAKE This lake has quite a record of excellent fishing, due main ly to the tremendous amount of food it grows for the fish planted in it. The brook trout are a part of the old record and are coming back. Con trary to the rainbow the brook trout can spawn in the spring holes in Fish lake Rainbow will make up the bulk of the catch this Satur day and will be eight to 14 inches long with a few fish running up to 2 1 i pounds. The eastern brook will be nine to 12 inches long but won't catch on until later in the summer. Most fishermen won't get their limits. HOWARD PRAIRIE Should have another grand opening similar to last year. This year the snow won't be quite so deep, but the people probably will be deeper. Fish ing will get better in a couple of weeks when the water warms up and fishing fevers cool down. Catches will run in three sizes: eight to 11 in ches, IS to 18 inches, and from 20 inches on up to seven or eight pounds. Largest percent age of the catch will be in the smallest site classification. None of the tributaries to the lake will be open. About 30 per cent of the fishermen will gel their limits, maybe, HYATT LAKE This lake was a surprise to everyone last year when the first year plants grew to a whopping 10 and 11 inches. The fishing this year wlil be exciting more than surpris ing. Catches will run in an eight to 11 inch size and an 18 to 20 inch size. The lake i is scheduled to go to a spiny Salem -HW- Gov. Mark ray fishery with a planting of Halficld has indicated that ex pansion of the Oregon High- Diuegui tins tall. It seems a shame to lose such good trout water, but there are those fishermln who enjoy the spiny ray and have a right to expect sonic good water to be devoted to this use.

Variety in the catches it caused by a cross ing of rainbow with cut throat, giving a crosscut - or maybe a rainthroat, I dunno. WILLOW LAKE The latest word from the man who knows is that good fishing will come to Willow if the fishermen leave their boats at home. Research seems to show that the fish go to the bottom and pout when the lake is covered with sitter type fishermen. Maybe this is why the bank fisher men do so well. Fish caught will run nine to 10 inches, with a few up to 16 and over The kokanee will be from nine to 14 inches long. THE ANGLER'S LOG One of the most pressing questions in this fishing situa tion it the one dealing with which bait or lure to use. It really doesn't seem to make much difference on opening day. The fish are hungry and their memories are dim. Cold water will make them tlow and it the biggest factor to .....lend with in determining success this Saturday, THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER Someday the so-called plan ners in this country are going to realize that a stream doesn't look its best when it is com pletely denuded of cover right down to the water's edge Someday we'll have planners who can tolerate natural en vironment. My trouble is that 1 hate to have to wait that long. GOOD LOOKl said all three men live "either on U.S. AO or U.S. 30, and we're on U.S. 101 " Responding to Ayers, Hat field said, "You have a very good point." But the gover nor also noted that for :. long time all three commissioners lived near U.S. 30 only. The present commission is marie up of Ch 'r.nan Glenn Jackson, Medford; Kenneth Fridley, Wasco, and David Simpson, Portland.
