Fishermen Advised To Check Rules Portland - Oregon anglers are urged by the game com mission to check the angling regulations before venturing out for the opening of the gen eral trout season on Saturday, April 20. In general, the April 20 date will open all waters of the state to trout angling except lakes in the Cascade and Paulina mountains within na tional forest boundaries, and all coastal streams in zone 1, which includes Columbia riv- tributarics to St. Helens, and streams in zones 3 and 4. These areas will remain closed to trout. angling until May 25. All lakes in the coastal zone will open April 20 as will the upper portions of the Ump qua and Rogue rivers in zones 3 and 4. Anglers planning to fish in streams heading in the coast range from the east side should be careful that they do not cross over into waters of the coastal zone. Each year well-meaning but uninformed fishermen are surprised and dismayed to learn they are il legally fishing in tributaries of the coast streams, such as the Nehalem, Wilson, Nes tucca and Siletz. The main trouble spots appear to be Rock creek, Wolf creek and the upper Salmonberry in the Nehalem system. Anglers are reminded these streams are tributaries of the Nehalem which will not open until May 25. Don't Qualify In clarification of the def inition of "lake," as applied to the April 20 opening in zone 1. commission personnel offer this suggestion: If the body of water is a natural lake and bears a name or is a man- made impoundment, then the body of water qualifies as a lake. Beaver dams in the stream course which back up small pools or ponds of water do not quality tor tne cany opening. Anglers in doubt should check the detailed synopsis of the angling regulations avail able at all license agencies. Recent wintry weather is expected to have little effect on the enthusiasm of thou sands of Oregonians when the general trout season opens Saturday but it might) hold down catches, the state game commission said. Many streams, as well as lakes and reservoirs, have been stocked. The commission emphasized angler success will depend on water conditions. Snow run off could dampen opening week end success in some areas, while muddy conditions because of damp weather are expected in many spots.

Or per haps the pitchers are getting away with that old devil the spitball'.' Whatever the reason, the pitchers have been , having a ball at the expense of the hit ters during the first two weeks of the campaign. The figures show that there have been nine shutouts pitch ed and only 59 homers hit in the AL's first 35 games. At such a pace over the entire season the pitchers would ac cumulate 180 shutouts - far more than the league record of 146 set in 1909 and con siderably above the major league record of 163 in one league set by the National league in 1908. Also, a mere 59 homers in 35 games represents a 13 per cent decrease in homer out put from 1962 when AL slug gers hit 1,552 in 810 games. First Stigman Shutout There were only two games played in the American league Thursday and both resulted in shutouts. Dick Stigman pitch ed the first major league shut out of his career to give the Minnesota Twins a 3-0 win over the Los Angeles Angels and Ray Herbert tossed a three - hitter as the Chicago White Sox beat the Kansas City Athletics, 3-0. Two homers were hit -one by the Twins, Earl Battey and another by the White Sox' Dave Nickolson. Stigman, a 27-year-old lefty in his fourth big league sea son, gave up scratch singles to Lee Thomas and Albie Pear son and a solid double to Jim Fregosi. He struck out five and walked only one, Herbert, a 20-game winner last season, struck out five and walked only one in post ing his first win of 1963. Floyd Robinson scored the first two White Sox runs after a single and a double and Nicholson' homered in the seventh for their final run. Nelson Fox singled for the Sox' fourth hit - the 2,400th hit of the little second-baseman 'a career. MEOCO KEG1.ERF.TTES Starlighters (37-19) 4. Clara Tor rey 323: Black Balls 128-28) 0.

Other high scorers were Marvin Nelson 367, Ernie Cox 366 and Ralph Mc- Kinsey 365. Local fishermen ought to find some interest in HB 1832, whicli was introduced by Rep resentatives W. O. Kelsay, Sidney Lcikcn. and Senator Al Flegel at the request of the Roseburg Rod and Gun Club. GAME COMMISSION This piece of legislation would give tht gam com mission sole jurisdiction over "the fiah in any of the riven, bays, streams, lakes, inlets, loughs, or other water or tributaries thereof in the slat or any waters over which th state has jurisdiction, concur rent or otherwise. Including water of the Pacific Ocean, extending for one mile sea ward from the coast, within the boundaries of the state or over which the state has juris diction." The fish commission would transfer all jurisdiction and power over fish to the gam commission except that which applied outside th limit ex tending . on mil seaward from th coast. This would limit all commercial fishing to th Pacific Ocean beyond th on mil limit, and It would place all fish within th described boundary under sport or game fish regulations. WOW1 If this proposed bill be came law there would be a great deal more lost by the commercial fishing interests than just -the right to the stcclhead arid salmon in the Columbia river. It is an ex treme reaction to a situation that needs some solution, even thought this bill is not the best or wisest means of finding it. It is the result of an attempt to place control of all anadromous fish in the hands of interests other than sports fishermen. SOLUTION NEEDED Th stelhad and salmon fisheries of Oregon are worth a lot to th economy of th siat. It has always been th belief of this writer that Or. gon would gat more out of its fisheries if stlhad war mad a gam fish and re served solely for th sports fishing industry. Eventually this will com to pass, and th commercial fishing inter ests will have to face giving up th Columbia river as ihay had to give up netting in th other rivers of th slate. HB 1832 would not b If th commercial fishing intar- sts were not trying to place control of all anadiomou fish in th hands of on agen cy. This agency is reported to be a part of th depart mnt of natural resources that th. governor is allampt ing to create in th present legislature. Proposed amend ments to th bill creating this department make it illegal for anyone ever connected with a sports group to have any function in an agency con trolling th salmon and steel head of th Stat. Commercial interests are not so limited. Conclusions, anyone? THE ANGLER'S LOG All anglers are urged to check the angling regulations before going out tomorrow. Every year there are a few illiterates who show up on the Rogue, Applegate, and other streams that are closed and won't open until May 25. Poor readers are cautioned to play it safe and go to one of the lakes that will be open. lhc only difficulty with this advice is that the weather may make it impossible to get to any of the lakes on open ing day. Fish Lake The last rtsarl showed 14 inches of snow at the lake and more coming down. The axe la tun ana clear, out the roads to it are not getting in bet tcr shape as time goes on. Eager lishermen are advised that chains will be required and anyone try ing to pull a trailer up there had better not try It. There are plenty of lish in the lake the game com mission planted 190.053 rainbow and 41.610 eastern brook laat Au gust and September. They were planted as three to five inchera and should be legal size by now. Hold-over fish from previous sea sons Will run UP to a fat 20 Ineheu and between three and four pounds. Howard Prairie The pavement waa clear to the lodge as of yes terday afternoon, but the latest re ports Indicate snow and more snow for the area over the week end. The road to the dam was open it the last report. Chains may be necessary by opening morning. Fishermen are cau tioned to check with the state police just before going up. Last August the lake received 498.731 rainbow, and they should be about eight inches long by now. Catches are expected to show fiah up to 28 or 30 Inches this year. Hyatt Lake The highway from the Greensprlngs highway is im passable, and the road in from Howard Prairie, at last report, was open to within about 300 yards of the lake. Brave, adventu rous souls who want to try to reach the lake are adviaed to check with the state police before and not after. The game commis sion planted 100,032 rainbow last August. Also planted were 17 bass about to spawn and 794 blueglll. Squaw Lakes Had 93,020 rain bow planted last September. At last report the road was impas sible except by four-wheel drive veniciea.
