Rogue Had Good Spring Chinook Run Portland It may not have appeared so to Rogue river anglers, but according to up stream salmon counts at Gold Ray dam, one of the best spring chinook runs in years moved up the Rogue this past summer. Cole Rivers, game commis. sion fishery biologist at Grants Pass, noted that 32.651 of the big springers crossed the counting boards at the Gold Ray station this year, more than doubling the parent run of 1958. The 1962 run repre sents 207 per cent of the par ent run which was tallied at 15,716 salmon. I his is the third consecu tive year that a high return of spring chinook has been re ported from the Rogue, coin paring favorably with the good runs of the early 1940's. Last year the count was just over 33,000 salmon, and in 1960 it was just over 26,200. Tile previous high count was in 1953 when more than 33, 500 spring chinook passed the counting station. The all-time high since records have been kept was the 43,400 salmon recorded in 1942. The 1961 and 1962 spring chinook on the Rogue have been exceeded only three oth er years since the Gold Ray counting station was installed by the game commission in 1942. Rivers also reported a good run of summer stcclhcad through the Gold Rcy count ing station which totalled 2.700 fish, about 42 per cent above the 10 -year average. The fall run of silver salmon also appears to be good with this tally incomplete to date. Crater Grapplers Subdue Myrtle Creek by 40-13 Central Point - Crater High school's wrestlers opened their slate here last night by defeating Myrtle Creek 40 to 13. The Comets won 10 of the 13 regular matches, taking five by pins. Myrtle Creek won two tussles by falls. Crater also claimed 10 of the 11 exhibitions. Next action for the Comets will be at home against Hen ley at 1 p.m. Saturday. There are five lettermen on the Crater squad this season. They are Doug Moore and Joe McCalvy, 141; Gary Gidney, STEINKE ALTERNATE Eugene - iliPli - Clayton Steinkc, junior from Salem, will be alternate for Ore gon's four-mile relay team on its trip to New Zealand later this month. Coach Bill Bow erman said today. The three-week trip starts Dec. 14. Those on the relay team includr Vic Reeve. Ar chie San Homani, Keith For mal! and Dyrol Burleson. Eagle Point Entertains Crater High Eagle Point - Eagle Point high's basketball Eagles em bark on another season this week end ambitious to even outdo their 1961-62 campaign, which was the greatest in school history. The Eagles open at home against Crater on Friday and against Myrtle Creek on Sat urday. Coach Dale Bates, with three lettermen ready to see service, says his new edition has good size and fair speed. He maintains that, "if the in experienced boys can come along we'll have another suc cessful year." Eagle Point finished last season with a 23-3 win-loss record. They were the Rogue league and District 6 A-2 champions. They won their opening game in the state A-2 tourney but dropped the next two. The Eagles won their first 16 games of the season and gained the state's No. 1 A-2 rating. One of the vets is Charles Pomeroy, 6-1, all-stater, a for ward and center, and two year letterman, who likely will handle a post job. Others are Richard Short, 6-4, center slated for post duty, and John Linder, a guard, who "quar terbacks" (he Eagles. The three are seniors. Other seniors on the squad include Wilbur Boatwright, Jack Straus, Gary Clements and Duane Whaley. Boat wright, forward, a jump shot artist, had to drop from the squad last year because of responsibilities at home. Wha ley, guard, who shows hustle and desire, was sidelined by a knee ailment last year. Straus, guard, up from the junior varsity, is a fine out side shot, and Clement, guard also with jayvce experience is aggressive and a hard worker. Two juniors from the jay vees are Bill Ayres, forward, who is working on the post and developing a hook shot, and Frank Charley, guard, who has a good jump shot and is pushing for a starling assignment. Sophomores are Bob Cor liss, forward, with fine of fensive moves, and Lone Mes loh, 6-3 center, who is gn;en but learning and developing a hook shot. Two senior lettermen who will not be eligible until Feb ruary are working with the squad. They are Tom Hudson, 6 feet, and Bill Hoefft, 6-2. Both arc forwards.
