HIBLW
PAUL HAINES
NO FISHING
We recently received word
of a bill that was introduced
in the lower house at Salem
making it unlawful to fish in
certain portions of the Rogue
river from s boat.
As a great number of Klamath
sportsmen fish the Rogue, we
thought them entitled to know of
inis penoing legislation, jicic
is the nroDosed bill: Section 1
"From and after the passage of
this act, it shall be unlawful for
any person to
fish with hook
and line, com
monly called
angling, from or
in any boat or
from or on any
other floating
device in the
waters of the
Rogue river be
tween the e a s t
boundary of the
Siskiyou nation
al ' . ...hnn
it crosses said OAiaca
Rogue river and the confluence
of uauey creeK ana saia nugue
river, or to have within any boat
or on anv floating device in said
waters herein described any as
sembled fishing tackle.'
- Section 2. "Any person con
victed of a violation of this act
shall be punished by a fine not
less than ten dollars ($10) or
more than one hundred dollars
(5100), or by imprisonment in
the county jail not to exceed
30 days, or by both such fine
and imprisonment."
It would be well for Klamath
anglers to carefully consider this
measure and enter their recom
mendations or protests at an
early date.

two weeks and the return of
ranev Jerry Thome to the fcl
icon camp was a distinct help.
Thome made good use of his
height last weekend in the Ash
land series, controlling the back
board play the majority oi tnc
time. Thome is only a sopho
more and has been in there
reallv working all season.
All the other Klamath hoop
stcrs, starters and reserves alike,
have been showing an added
spirit and drive that was notice
ably lacking at the start of the
season.
Coach Marble Cook is drilling
the boys in ball handling and
ball control in an effort to off
set the great height advantage of
the Medford five. In the two
previous games with Medford
here, the K-men lost the ball as
soon as they shot at the basket.
They captured very few re
bounds in either game.
Cook is endeavoring to remedy
this by stressing accurate passing
and ball control. Thome's
heieht will helu the Pelicans a
great deal in this final series with
me BiacK lornaao u ne can
manage to take the rebounds
away from Riggs and a few other
Medford beanpoles.
With the fighting spirit and
dash shown by the Pelicans to
bolster their confidence, tney
will let the Medford lads know
they have been in a ball game,
win, lose, or draw.
Davidson Meets
"Silent" Rattan
In Mat Opener
An old favorite will return to
the Klamath grappling wars Fn
day night when "Silent" Rattan
tangles with "Blood and Guts'
Davidson. Rattan is a deaf mute
muscler and a capable grappler
who has been popular with
Klamath rassling fans. -
This bout opens a card that
features a rematch between
Tough Tony Ross and the "Grey
Mask" in the headline event.
Last week Tony all but flopped
the hooded hoodlum and has
promised to go all out Friday in
an effort to accomplish the here
tofore impossible feat of un
masking the masked menace.
This rematch was Booked By
Promoter Mack Lillard, the great
white father of Klamath crunch
circles, by an urgent public de
mand. There will be no raise in
ticket prices for this battle of
the century ana extra seats are
being set up to accommodate the
crowd.
In the semi-final tussle. Jack
Kiser is pitted against Pete Bel
castro in another fracas that
should prove a crowd pleaser.
Both boys are popular here and
Pete is more inclined to use the
rough stuff than Joltin' Jack.
This rounds out another ton
notch card staged at the Klam
ath arena and everything can,
and probably will, happen when
the bicep boys twist torsos Fri
day night.

Wanted, for post-war delivery:

when they're not being used for
baseball and football. . . The as

are beginning to realize that the
expensive plants stand idle some
300 days a year mid that thev
can profitably rent them out for
fights, circuses, etc. . . . One mi
nor league club which figured
to lose about $50,000 Inst season
with a poor team, realized more
man sao.uoo profit instead Just
by renting its park. . . . What
they really need, however, is
something new that will corre

ice snows, which now are the bic
money-makers at indoor arenns
built originally for boxing.
OBSERVATION POST
The other day when Ed Bar-

cussing baseball prospects, Ed
remarked: "It's got to be quan

We must sign up a lot of green
hands to be on the safe side." . .
