Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DaVou Maids Take Jills 4-3 In Softball Memorial Field, White City A home run that brought in two other runners during the last inning were not enough to take the Roseburg Lumber Jills ahead of the Rogue Val ley Dairy Maids as the Maids edged out the Jills 4-3 in a non-conference softball skir mish here last night.

First fall big game hunt of the year will take place Aug. 17 through Aug. 21 when 650 tag holders stalk the sage brush lands of southeastern Oregon in search of prong horn antelope. TIME AND PLACE The Oregon gam commis sion reminds that applica tions for antelope tags must be in the Portland office of th commission by 5 p.m., July 22. Application forms are the sain as used last year and ar now available at license agencies, throughout tha state. A fee of SS per ap plicant must accompany the application. Any person who had an anielop tag in 1961 or 1962 it not eligible to apply lor a tag for the 1963 season. Hunters who are successful in drawing tags ihis year will not be eligible to apply again until 1969 since the regula tions now stipulate that a hunter may have a tag once every five years. CHANGES In setting the antelope sea sons, the commission made some minor changes from the previous year's ruling. For the 1963 seasons, party ap plications will be accepted with two hunters eligible to apply on the same form. How ever, applications containing more than two names will not be accepted. Also, seven areas are available to hunters this year as compared to six such areas last year. The new area, with 50 tags available, en compasses the Interstate unit and the Klamath unit south of highway 66. APROPOS SNAGGING The cjame commission has completed its study of the re cent salmon-snagging season on the upper Rogue. A run was made of 24 holding areas from Laurelhurst bridge to Shady Cove. Divers were used to attempt a count of th salmon that were carry ing snagging marks and also to make a random check of the fishing gear found caught on the bottom of th river in these areas. Observation of the salmon was found to be rather diffi cult because of the extreme wariness and scattering of the fish whenever the divers en tered the holding areas. It was estimated that about 936 sal mon were observed; of which SO fish, or S.34 per cent, could be seen to have snag marks on their bodies. The check of the fishing tackle found on th bottom revealed that 60 per cent was legal equipment, 23 per cent was altered for the purpose of snagging, and 17 per cent was sear specifically designed to snag a salmon. Th greatest concentration o f snagging gear was found at Tucker chute, Casey park, the Barn hole, and below Trail creek. APROPOS SNAGGERS There have been quite a number of complaints regard ing the seemingly poor show ing made by the state police in enforcing the laws relating to snagging. The situation was so bad this year that it was pleasant to hear so many peo ple in accord regarding the need for something very posi tive to protect the salmon. The need for a change in the law so that treble hooks would be illegal would be a first step toward this positive need. But this is not all that is needed. GAME PROTECTORS An opinion was expressed in this column some lime ago that the present system of gam law enforcement in Ore gon should be changed. Th use of the state police may have been fairly effective at a time when game law enforce ment was of small conse quence, but th present situa tion shows that the problem has outgrown the system. Those officers of the state po lice who are assigned to game law enforcement are under the direct control of superiors who are responsible for the eniorcement of laws other than those relating to game. The $1,587,281 of gam com mission monies given to the stale police for th 1961-63 biennium is for the purpose of gam law enforcement. It would seem sensible to be lieve that a more consistent use of this money would be possible if those involved in the spending of it had game law enforcement as their sole responsibility. We need game protectors more than we need policemen, and a system of enforcement organised around the idea of protecting game rather than catching law breakers would be more ef fective. THE ANGLER'S LOG The weather has had some thing to do with the fishing the past week, but the catch reports are so conflicting the only conclusion possible is that it made a lot of fisher men quite miserable. Diamond Lake Some slowing up but still producing fish of bet ter than average size. Fly fishing is waiting for warmer weather while the trolling and atUUishing is as usual. Fish Lake Has heen very good through the week. Limits are coming out, and the fish are big ger 12 to 16 inches. Best bet is still-fishlnc with eacs or worms. Howard Prairie Fly fishing hRS tapered off to the frustration point. Lure trollers are picking up plenty of small fish at the lower end of the lake. Stillfishing seems to be the most consistent payoff for the larger fish. Hyatt Lake Has been stow. The catch report from the lodge givea about two to tnrce tlsn per boat. Best bet is stillfishing by the snags with eggs or cheese, Klamath Lake The cool weath er has kept the fishing good up to the last two days with me tlsn staying fairly active. Brown trout to a pounds and rainbow to 14 '3 pounds were caught this week. Best bet is with KF&W and FF&ff. Most fish are in the 16 to 18 inch bracket. willow Lake Slow. About two to three fish per boat with hard work. Stillfishing or trolling will ind tnem. Average size rainbow kokanee. of 12 inches means two or three fish will make a fine meal lor two people. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER The wild reports coming in from the coast regarding the salmon fishing are too good for the trout fishing. There are so many fish that the commercial market is glutted and the price the lowest in 10 years. Wowl GOOD LUCK! Track Competition Scheduled Saturday U.S. forest service smoke Jumpers from Cave Junction may be among those compet ing on Saturday in the Med ford parks and recreation de partment all-comers track and field meet at the senior high stadium. Mike Hanby. Southern Ore gon college athlete, has in dicated to Dean Benson, meet supervisor, that a jumper delegation will be on hand for the evening portion of the meet.

Old Man, Youngsters Gain Semis By HAL WOOD Sacramento, Calif.-lliPll-One old man and three brash youngsters teed off in the 36 hole semifinals of the National Public Links golf tournament today-with defending cham pion Dick Sikcs already shunted to the sidelines. The "old man" is Dante Vicinl, a 49-year-old glass ma chine operator from Ottawa, 111. The youngsters are Steve Opperman, 21, South San Francisco, who meets Vicini; Jerry Yuke, 20, Sacramento, State student; and Bobby Lunn, San Francisco, aged 18. Vicini Knocked out the great Dick Sikes on the 19th hole of their match Thursday -and should play the favor ite's role. But in 100-degiee heat, the youngsters have the edge. And it's no doubt but what they have the confi dence. Went To Pieces Two down with two to go, Vicini actually stayed alive when Sikes' game went to pieces. The veteran, playing in his 11th National Public Links event, won the 17th and 18th holes with pars, against bogies for the defending cham pion. And he won the match on the 19th with another par against Sikes' third consecu tive bogey. Vuke, son of a Chinese dent ist, had to come back to win, too. One down going into the 17th, he won the next two holes with pars as Wayne Os borne ran out of gas. Opperman, assistant in a golf course pro shop, was one over par in disposing of Ed Castagnetto of San Francisco, 4 and 3. Hanby has reported also that he plans to bring a group of young athletes from Cave Junction for the morning rivalry. Boys 6 to 14 years of age and girls 6 to 16 will take part in events from 9 to 12:30 a.m. Competition for boys 15 16, high school boys and the open class will go from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Open To All The meet is open to all athletes interested. It is hoped to draw from Klamath and Siskiyou counties as well as Jackson and Josephine. Ben son said that the meet is open "to anybody who wants to be there." Benson also has asked for volunteers to serve as meet officials either in the morn ing or evening or at both times. Those willing should report to him ahead of the 9 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. starting times. Because of the renovation of the stadium turf, partici pants and spectators are ask ed to stay off the tender grass on the infield. Grass in the middle of the field is fairly well established. That on the two ends of the field has just sprouted. The meet is the first of four on schedule this year. A fifth meet may be added City Tennis Team Tops GP Netters Medford city tennis players swept the girls' competition and won four of seven boys' matches yesterday in play with a Grants Pass team.
