BURNS Associated Press Staff Writer The 16 seats in the State Prep Basketball tournament were filling: up today,' with Oregon City firmly esconced in ' one, Rainier climbing into another, ' and feet hooked over the rungs of a half dozen more. Oregon City, runner-up for last year's championship, plop ped officially into the district 12 seat with a victory over Mil waukie last Friday. Rainier, al ready assured of at least a tie for the district 14 spot, battles to clinch it tomorrow night with a tilt against St. Helens. Myrtle Point, Eugene, Leba non, McMinnville, Hillsboro, and Washington of Portland all had a foot on tourney seats though there was still a chance that old man mathematical chance and upset might toss them back on the floor. Around the rest of the circle, it was still a strictly musical chairs proposition, with a score of squads battling for the seats when district tournament and playoff music stops next month. Baker, Blue mountain confer ence leader, plays Pendleton this weekend, then enters the crucial Baker-La Grande games next week for the right to play off for the district 1 title.

Myrtle Point, barring a -complete reversal of form, ex pects to take the district S crown at the March 1-2 tour ney in Coquille.

Pardon My Snow Dust wildlife service rcDort that fish ladders operated successfully in the river over a ten year period. The fish passed Bonneville and Rock Island dams without difficulty but development of Grand Coulee dam made spawn ing impossible above that point The Wildlife service trapped salmon below the dam and trans planted them in other streams. The salmon spawned by the transplanted fish returned to the streams in which the transplant ing was done, the wuoaue serv ice said. "This operation" the senator said, .' changed uie namis oi we fish and it seems that the plan will be successful. The success ful operation of the fish ladders over a ten year period seems to show that additional dams on the Columbia will not endanger our salmon runs. "The Fish and Wildlife service say. and I agree, that the experi ments on transplanting salmon to new streams, even though costly, must be continued so that there will be no decrease in our salmon runs. "The service believes there still is some danger to the runs but that it will be overcome by continuing our experimental work."
