G n 0 o O co Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank AU the local Robin Hoods will be heading for the taU timber this week end, hoping lor a close, itanding shot at a buck, doe, fawn type o deer. Contrary to the pronounce ments of a variety of expert anti-doe hunters, the word is that an easy winter and wet spring have left some areas with more deer than have been seen in years. Methinks that last year's hunting sea son may have had something to do with it in leaving a heavy carryover of surplus deer. The archers will be the first to benefit if they go to those areas where the surplus exists, and unless some rifle hunters change their style of hunting they may have a re peat of last year's season. HOW TO Most of the blacktail ranges west of the Cascades will pro vide good hunting for the hunter able to take a stand and willing to wait out the deer. This works best if there are enough nervous-type hunt ers who can't hold to a stand and move around enough to keep the deer moving. The archer on a stand has the bet ter chance of a shot that will be unhurried and accurate, but this always is dependent on his skill and luck. The mov ing hunter is at a disadvant age because of a deer's sharp er vision and hearing, al though he can even the odds somewhat by moving slowly and with long pauses between steps. The best advice would seem to be that each person choose that style of hunting best suited to his tempera ment and then work to be come expert at it. Last but not least is the hope to be in the right place at the right time. ATTENTION Young hunters, 17 years of age or under, are reminded by the game commission that if they intend to hunt this fall they must have in their pos session a certificate of com petency in the safe handling of firearms. This is a pro vision of the law passed by the Oregon legislature which became effective January 1, 1962. The law further states that any youngster 17 or un der who desires to obtain a certificate o f competency shall first satisfactorily com plete r course in the safe handling of firearms. DO IT NOW The commission urges all youngsters who intend to hunt this fall and who do not have a certificate of competency to enroll in a hunter safety class immediately.

THE ANGLER'S LOG Salmon fishing at the mouth of the Rogue has taken a turn for the better this week. The latest reports indi cate that the fish are moving in and are providing some red-hot angling between the jetties. Brookings reports nothing doing out in the ocean, and one might suspect that the fish are moving in close while they wait for that first fall rain that will start the urge to move upriver. Klamath River Reports from downriver are that the salmon and steelhead are in and provid ing some excitement up the riv er to Happy Camp. The best ru mors are those that tell of fish larger than normal being taken early in the season. This is sup posed to mean a tremendous run again. Sounds Great! Rogue River . Steelhead are providing excetlent fishing on Kimball riffle. Flyfishing has been lousy as the fish seem to prefer spinners and oait. Enthu siastic rumors are ciming up re garding fish of six pounds and more. Better and better! Diamond Lake The trollers have been having fair luck with the usual FF&W, but the best troll ing gear is the smaller type lure. Flyfishermen are finding good suc cess early and late, and a troll ed fly will do as well as one drifted. Fish Lake Has been good. All boats have been finding fish, and 23 are limiting out. Fish are averaging 9 to 12 inches with a brook trout of 18 Inches taking large size honors. Howard Prairie Trolling has been becoming more popular as the fish seem more cooperative. Hyatt Lake Getting better and better. Trolling a flat fish is the favorite method for now. Still fishing is better lor fish but it isn't as popular. Klamath Lake The best fish ing is for catfish and perch us ing worms. The trout are taking a black gnat on a slow troll. All fish are eager to fight boys or girls whose fathers are willing to bait their hooks. Catfish and trout to 14 inches: perch to t pound. Stillfishing for the cats, keep the worm moving for the perch. Lake of the Woods Fishing has been good with limit catches. Rainbow to 24 inches and brooks to IB. inches stillfishing with cheese, eggs and worms. Willow Lake The kokanee are hitting FF&spin-n-glo on a slow, deep troll. They are fat and 14 inches long. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER Low water temperatures in all migratory fish streams have al lowed a record escapement of downstream migrants. With Im proved management of the streams, we ought to be able to expect the benefits to fish runs to pro vide us with more and better fish ing. And maybe It will work out that way. GOOD LUCK! Underground Piping Trend in Lawn Care Louisville, Ky.-ftM - The next trend in home lawn care may be underground piping to eliminate the choice of hold ing a watering hose, dragging out sprinklers or letting the grass die. New rigid plastic pipe and fittings expressly designed for lawn sprinkling systems can be installed underground at costs that are within reason for most homeowners, accord ing to Chemetron corporation affiliate Tube Turns Plastics Incorporated. MORE THAN ONE FISH Bridgewater, England lUPD Newsboy Frank Woodward, 81, was jilted Thursday short ly before his wedding to re tired nurse Irene Trend, 67, but he was philosophical. "I think I know someone else who will have me, but I'm not saying who she is," he said. 1 1 ! San Diego Chargers Have Their Best Team So Far; New Offense Installed Editor's notet This it n other in a series of dispatches siiing up the prospects of pro fessional football teams for the 1963 season. By RAYMOND C. MEANS San Diego, Calif.- (I'PD -The San Diego Chargers start the fourth American Football league season with their best team yet, one which is de fensively sound and offensive ly more versatile than Sid Gillman-coached teams of the past. Despite the 1960 and 1961 successes of Jack Kemp, this team never really possessed a strong passing attack. "This year will be differ ent," Gillman promises. "We are installing a new offense to utilize the great speed we now have." The key men are quarter backs Tobin Rote and John Hadl and flanker Lance Al worth. Rote, a veteran of 13 years of National and Canadian league football, was acquired in an off-season deal with Buf flo. Now, however, his job is in jeopardy. Hadl Brilliant Hadl, who quartcrbacked the Chargers most of last sea son and finished with only a 41 per cent completion record, has looked brilliant in the ex hibition games. His chance came when Rote suffered a bruised breastbone in the first series of plays during the first exhibition game. Rote now has the added task of teaching Hadl what he knows. Alworth has a sprinter's speed and excellent hands. The other receivers are Dave Kocourek, the all-league tight end: and split end Don Norton. They are backed by Jacque MacKinnon, who is 6-foot-4, weighs 250 and doubles as an offensive tackle; T. R. Robinson, a sprinter, and Bert Coan. Breakaway threat Paul Lowe has return to halfback after missing a year with a broken arm. Lowe will share the posi tion with Keith Lincoln, vot ed the most valuable Charger last year. Lincoln, the club's best blocking back, led the Lead Upped By Yakima United Press International Yakima stretched its lead in the Northwest league to 2'2 games and Wenatchee moved into third place in Thursday night's games. Yakima defeated Tri-City 6-4 while second place Salem was losing to Wenatchee by a 5-4 margin. The victory pushed Wenat chee one-half game ahend of Lewiston in their battle for third place. Lewiston lost a 10-2 decision to Eugene as catcher Howard Wood had 4 RBI's. Reminder of Past Inspire young and old with this needle-painting - symbol of the vigor of our pioneers.

Pat Shea and Sam Gruneisen have the size and speed to handle the guard slots but have had only a year of experience each. Don Rog ers is adequate at center with last year's rookie standout, Wayne Frazier, out for the year with a knee infection. Ron Mix and Ernie Wright backed by rookie Walt Sweeney give the team excel cent protection at tackle. Defensively the Chargers have a solid front line of Earl Faison, Ron Nery, Ernie Ladd and rookie George Gross of Auburn. Depth is provided by Hank Schmidt at tackle and Bob Mitinger and rookie Fred Moore of Memphis State at end. Linebackers Emil Karas on the left. Chuck Allen in the center and either Paul Ma guire, Frank Buncom or Mit inger on the right rank with the league's best. Charley McNeil and Dick Harris are among the best de fensive backs in the league. The other two backfield spots are up for grabs among in cumbents Bud Whitehead and George Blair, rookies Keith Kinderman of Florida State and Dick Westmoreland of North Carolina A&T. Venturi, Johnston Set Pace By GENE MEAKINS Denver -(UPD- It has been a Ion drought for veteran pro fessional golfers Ken Ven turi and Bill Johnston, but they were off and running to day at the head of the pack in the $35,000 Denver Open. Each carded a 66 in Thurs day's first round of the 72 hole tourney over the 6,774 yard Denver Country Club layout, good enough for a one stroke lead. Neither has won a tourney since 1960 and each has pocketed only about $3, 000 in winnings this year. For the 32-year-old Venturi of Crystal River, Fla., who has been hampered for two years by various ailments, his physical condition pleased him as much as his hot, four-under-par round.. "I feel fine," he beamed after burning up the course with a five-under-par 30 on the front nine. "I've had two real bad years physically with a back ailment and tendonitis. Then, two months ago in Cleveland I was bruised in a car accident." Score Entitles Venturi said he had not mentioned his physical trou ble before because "I didn't want to say anything when I was losing." But he feels his 66 entitled him to explain what his problem has been for the past two years. "It's tough not feeling really strong enough to play my shots," he said. "I was winning my share of tourna ments in 1957-58-59. I don't think I was king, but I was winning my share." Venturi's hot putter gave him five birdies on the front nine and two on the back nine. The 38-year-old Johnston, of Phoenix, Ariz., who doesn't play the pro circuit continu ously, missed only one green, never missed a fairway and used only 31 putting strokes all day. ' I played belter than I know how," he commented. Rex Baxter Jr., Amarillo, Tex., came in with a 67 as did Bill Eggers, Henderson, Nev., and Lionel Hebert of Lafayette, La. Ten contestants were bunch ed next with 68s. They in cluded the 1961 champion, Dave Hill of Jackson, Mich. College Station, Tex. -t'PD-The marketing process from steer to steak pares down each beef animal to less than half the live weight, Texas A and M college farm etperts say. For each 100 pounds of live weight, a U. S. choice grade animal will yield about 59 pounds of carcass beef. The final step in marketing will take around 12 more pounds off in trimming and cutti-.r; meat into retail ' the remaining 47 T.,..us, only a portion is steak, so retail prices for steaks must be at least twice the live steer price, the ex tension experts say. DEFINES EXECUTIVE Washington -CPU- Accord ing to the Labor Department, a man must earn at least $100 a week to be an executive. By government standards, the department said Thursday that to qualify for the title of executive a man also must supervise at least two employees. XAJL TBIBUNE. MEDFORD. Layne Will Be Honored At Detroit United frmm IntesMtieial They're foing to roll out a barrel of sentiment in De troit tonight to hono one of the most hard-nosed competi tors the game of football has ever seen. Bobby Layne, the tough Texan who ruled the huddles of the Detroit Lions and the Pittsburgh Steelers with an iron hand, will be honored during halftime festivities when these two clubs clash in a pre-season game. One of the greatest quarter backs in National Football league annals, Layne estab lished NFL records for career passing yardage and touch down passes before he retired after the 1962 season. The highlight of "Bobby Layne Night" will be the official an nouncement of a scholarship fund in his name at the Uni versity of Texas, his alma mater. ' The only other scheduled exhibition game tonight pits the San Francisco Forty Nin ers' "walking wounded" against the Dallas Cowboys at Bakersfield, Calif. In other NFL developments, middle linebacker Ray Nit schke of the Green Bay Pack ers brushed off criticism of New York's Sam Huff for his violent tackling of teammate Jim Taylor in last year's championship game as part of "his job." The Packers were preparing for a Labor Day rematch with the Giants, whom they have now beaten five consecutive times. The Los Angeles Rams dropped defensive halfback John Griffin and acquired Nat Whitmyer, a castoff of the Cowboys, for the same po sition . . . The Chicago Bears will spend tonight in a Chi cago hotel where they will be under an 11 p.m. curfew prior to Saturday night's meeting with the St. Louis Cardinals. In American league camps, the San Diego Chargers dis closed that their outstanding end, Don Norton, will miss the entire 1963 season because of a ruptured disc suffered Tuesday . . . The New York Jets, in the role of hungry dogs waiting for something to drop off the table, snapped up tackle Charlie Janerette, who was released Wednesday by the Giants . . . Kansas City re ported that offensive stars Curtis McClinton, Abner Haynes and Stone Johnson had recovered from minor ail ments and were ready for Saturday night's game with the Houston Oilers, a rematch of last season's championship encounter.

"It is a practical car, de veloped jointly by stylists and engineers for study of many advanced ideas that could ap pear on cars of the near fu ture," Bordinat said. "Experi mental projects of this kind give us a useful framework for engineering exploration and provide styling themes for possible application in both domestic and foreign markets." Sloping Roofline From the side, the Allegro is similar to the Ferrari Gran Turismo cars and its sloping roofline is much like the one seen on the Corvette Sting Ray.
