ACR TEN HERALD AND NEWS. KIJVMATIl FALLS. OREGON FRIDAY, MAY 2t, 10.14 The Sportsman 3 By CLAYTON 1IANNON With wis last spurt of warm weather and a forecast of fair to food fishing conditions, the next few weeks should see some" good fi&htnj days for the basin anglers. During the past week. Klamath River has been good to most anglers, with several limits being taken from stream, which has been low for quite a few days. Some have been Using all shades of Wobble Rites, others have re lied upon the Super Duper at times with good results. Lately the rainbows have been rising to take, a fly. In the late evening hours. Besides these above mentioned lures, the old 'fashioned gardcu hackle seems to have the secret touch at times when nothing else will do. Three local fishing enthusiasts. George Smith, Bill Jenkins and Doug Pucketl were a' few of the anglers who made their limit catch es this last week on the river. These three, like many others, re lied upon the fly fishing for their catches. the Jackson county lake. Diamond Lake, open just last week after being froten over since th opening of trout season, pro duced catches of near limit fish to some, while others failed to do much. The bait used by anglers who made the nice catches at Diamond were single eggs and clusters. The Umpqua River, in the Rose burg area, has been "hot as a fire cracker" according to all reports from sources who have been In that area the past few days. Gerber Reservoir is still produc ing fine catches of crappie and other spiny-ray fish. The road into the fishing area is In good condition this year, and a great many anglers have made use of It so tar this sea son, In Poole's Big Fish contest, two 10 pound plus rainbows tonght It out for the weekly prite, but Fred Scutter's 10 pound six ouncer took the top honors. The second largest fish entered was landed by Mrs. Lonnle Lewis. Her fish weighed in at 10 pounds one ounce. Suctter was using a hot rod when the big -one took a hold. Word from Neptune Park along Mrs. Lewis's fish took a Seeker in the east side of Agency Lake re-: the Modoc Point waters of the Up- porU that the fish in Agency are per Lake. beginning to take hold of lore: and worms. During the early part of the week, a family that was at the park, was doing very well, with near limits per person, every day. The fish that are being brought out of the lake should still be good, and will probably remain so until the real hot weather hits later in the summer, and then the lish will take on a taste. Crescent Creek and the Little Deschutes produced good catches for anglers last week, and with the continued warm weather, this week should also be good. A little later in the season fly fishing will le at it's very best on these two streams. Fish Lake has been the scene of several nice catches to anglers who fish those waters. Ford fenders with worms and other trailing lures seem to be the trend of thought on So far thts week the largest fish to be entered is a five pound six ounce rainbow caught-by Tony Schukis on the Upper Lake, while using a Wobble Rite. After a check with the state po lice office this week, their files show only three arrests for game violations during the past week of fishing. . Two were made in a road check when it was learned that two anglers have gone beyond their daily bag limit of trout in the Lake County area. The last one was made at Gerber Reservoir when the defendant was caught using perch as bait, and a wanton waste of $ame fish charge was placed against him. After catching the perch, the j Individual would skin the spiny-ray . and use part, of it to lure crappie hi. hMV K.tn ka ,.. 1,4 the,,,' ' V.ltW uw, Mil,, 1(G nuutu ,11, un the remaining part away.

Hanuicr got suspicious of a man tailing him and had him arrested. The man turned out to be an in vestigator hired by Phlls's owner Bob Carpenter, so Carpenter said. Hamner cried. "Gestapo tactics."

Wallv Plpp and others, At St. Louis, he suggested the players be his guests. He took a bunch of them to a night club, where he brought out drinks and pretty girls. Then he lined them all up and posed them for a pic ture, with himself included. A few days later the players were called Into Rupperl's oilier and confronted with the picture and the private detective. "That blnnkety-blnnk double' crosser," tho Yanks lumed.

The successful manager is the i one who solves this delicate prob- ( lem In human relationships, who knows when to bend a little in the cases of certain of his athletes who can "break training" with a minimum of harm and to crack down hard on those who cannot. . The manager who is aa absolute martinet, who lays down stringent rules and enforces them inflexibly against all hands, will end up with a sore-headed ball club rooted in the second division. The one who tries to be baddies with his boys end puts them on their honor to keep in shape as a certain fresh man manager did sine years ago will fall on bis face just as surely. ' , ' There Is, in other words, a very delicate balance. The best of the managers seem to strike it sort oi instinctively. Some never do, and that is why, more than any other reason, there is such a 'steady turnover of pilots in the big leagues. An owner, speaking hon estly and privately, almost always will tell you he fired his manager because he 'let the players get away from him." Granny Hamner cf the Phils has no real reason to feel liverish, just because he discovered that his employers were having him tailed. : It's been going on as long as we've been around the game, and doubt less long before that. Every player j we've ever heard discuss this facet 1 of the great national pastime knew he was subject to a certain amount of surveillance during . the late hours and accepted it' along with his salary check: ..While we have long heard of clubs, usually at the manager's re quest, hiring private eyes to check up on their athletes in exceptional cases, the normal state Is for the manager and his coaches to take care of the chore, themselves. Usu ally one of the coaches is known privately among the players as the club's "policeman." He gets around pretty well himself when the team Is on the road and makes some effort to mingle with the ath lttes, but as they are on to him his value as a gumshoe is strictly limited. .: Diamond Notes Frank Sedgman Trounces Riggs VICTORIA, B.C.

He means, of course, an other hitter who can drive in the runs when they're needed. That's what the Phils have been lacking. Most observers around the loop agree with Tebbetts. Now that Chet Nichols and Gene ' Conley have started to win for the Milwaukee Braves. Charlie ' Grimm's men could start moving. These two were supposed to take up most of the slack left by the departure of Johnny Antonelll and Don Liddle in the Bobby Thomson deal with the New York Giants. . . .

Oriole Manager Jimmy. Dykes, incidentally, says he thinks the club is playing better ball because the fans are behind it.

His sparkling 66 was good enough for a 2-struke lead over handsome Jack Burke Jr., the Texas registered from Kaitnesha Lake, N. Y. Burke, playing ha'lcss and frequently disdaining the shel' ter of an umbrella held by his caddy, posted his 6B earlier in the day, when the rain was even heavier.
