PAGE EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON THURSDAY. MAY 23. 1P53 OUT OF DOORS with By Clayton Hannon Oregon high lakes and several of the choice slreams east of the Cascades opened for the first time tills season last Saturday and thousands of anglers invaded their favorite fishing spots over the weekend. .Most of the streams and lakes throughout the stale had opened April 16. Diamond Lake which wa: jammed with 1.4(H) hoats and an estimated 4.000 to 5,000 people on opening day last year, looked hare last wccKend as only 207 boats and less than (100 anglers turned out Saturday morning. About the ame number were in attendance Sunday. But the fish were not missing The anglers who opened the Diamond Lake season had one of the finest weekends on record as most took home their limits of "over 12-inchers" both days. The average catch ranged from 13 tx 17 inches, which is a real nice kamaloop. Very few of the "under 12" fish were caught according to game officers reports. The brilliant opening weekend is expected to draw a large number of anglers this weekend, a three- day vacation foi most people. Last weekend, camping space was open everywhere, but the word is out and tent spots may be harder to find this week. Lake officials are expecting a good turnout over the Memorial Day weekend. To the north, Kast and Paulina Heavy King To Meet Foe NEW YORK (UPD-Floyd Pat terson will defend his heavy weight crown for the third time In July, somewhere outside New York State, it was learned today. Manager Cus D'Amato is ex pected to announce the challenger and the site at any hour now. Young Patterson will change training camps on Monday and begin serious preparations for the defense. He has been conditioning off and on, for four months at the Long Pond Inn, Grenwood Lake, N. Y. Ho will shift to the sqanky Kulscher s Country Club, Monti cello, N. Y., to have more priv acy in his own cottage and more room to work in a large arena D'Amato has been negotiating with five dillerent promoters and five different managers but has steadfastly refused to disclose any information about the negotiations lest some one try to prevent the match before it's signed." He is a hittel crusader against the International Boxing Club. Some boxing men guess that unbeaten Hoy Harris will get the Mile shot in a fight at Houston, Tex. But Hint's only their guess, It Is rumored that Texas backers have offered a large guarantee lo Patterson. Hurler Sets Comeback Bid By United Press International Rudy Minarcin set his sights for another major league comeback Wednesday night by tossing a four-hitter as Toronto shutout Co lumbus, 60. I Minarcin, a former Cincinnati and Boston hurler, racked up his fifth victory against two setbacks as the Maple Leafs climbed to within a game o( the second-place Rochester Red Wings in the' In ternalicnal League race. Rocky Nelson, the league's lop home run hitler, aided Minarcin's cause with his 16th circuit clout. Stan .Ink chipped in with his filth, as Miami edged Rochester, 1-0 in 10 innings. Dick Riiketts went all the way for the Red Wings but lost out when he issued a run ill extra-inning play. In the only other game played, Havana tallied twice in the eighth Inning to beat Bullalo. 6-5. Vicente Amor won his first game of the season alter sultcring five straight setbacks. Richmond and Montreal were rained out. Oregon Prepper Sians For Bonus I1KHMISTON. Ore. i.M'i Keith Friend. IK. n high school pitcher who graduated Tuesday, was sipno'l Wednesday to a bonus contract with the Cleveland In dians. Friends, a nchlhander with a 4 0 record this season, will report to the Indians' farm chili of the Class C Northern League at Mi not, N.I). He said he received a $6,000 bonus llud niemker set a record lor doorgia ech s basketball team last season by making IH2 held goals He 'leld the lonner record of 161 set ihe previous season. lakes were both very good on the first weekend, hut the anglers packed the crowded campgrounds with boat and house trailers, caus ing several tralfic jams. Most of Ihe limit catches were taken on worms and single eggs by still fishermen. A few nice size rain bows and german browns were hooked by trollers. Big Lava and Cultus lakes both were good for Ihe smaller pan sized trout with many anglers claiming the two-day, possession limits of 20 (ish per person. Crane Prairie Reservoir in the Bend LaPine area was also good, but crowded with anxious anglers. The Thursday, Friday and Sat urday rain storms put the damper on what was expected to be a fine opening on Ihe Williamson and Wood rivers here and made fish ing Ihe Deschutes and Little De schutes tough. Saturday morning, some lunkcrs including one that scaled better than 13 and three others that went over 10 pounds were taken Irom the Williamson, but the action soon died down to a walk. The already high water wasn't helped by the down pours prior to the opening. Wood River, which looked high but slill in fairly good shape earli er last week, turned muddy with all ol the rain and tishing there was poor. A few catches, includ-, ing the usual number of first-day german brown beauties were hooked on worms opening day. F.arly morning fishermen Satur day picked up a few scattered limits, but on the whole, the stream was very slow for an opener. Ihe two Deschutes streams tapered off fast last Saturday and Sunday and fishing experts in that part of the state blame the high water and rainy conditions which started Thursday evening. The slreams aren t cxpecled to be much improved Ihis Saturday and Sunday, uniess Ihe rains slop and the water clears. Crescent and Odell lakes high in the Cascades had fair to good fishing over Ihe weekend. Some nice kamaloop catches were re ported at Crescent and Odell was good for blucbacks. A few scat tercd catches of mackinaw were laken, but nothing of any major size. Klamath River, the two forks of the Sprague and the Sycan were ill reported to be high and murky over the pasl weekend. Little change is expected here. While at Diamond Lake Inst weekend, we noticed the Jackson County Sheriff's office in action, slowing down speedboalers. There a 10 mile an hour speed limit on the lake, the same as Crescent. Tickets for speeding were issued lo two boats Sunday morning by the patrol boat, which seemed to slow down a few others. Boaters are reminded that speed checks are being made on Ihese two lakes. There is no speed limit at Lake if the Woods, but one at Kast and Paulina as well as the two before mentioned spots. This week's series on the finer points of bait fishing and the care of your Dait supplied by Frank Addision of Frank's Bait Stop, I26 Klamath Ave. has to do wilh the care and storage of worms: Quite as important as bedding, yet often neglected by most, is Ihe packaging of bail. The wild worms as we know, must be kept cool.and even though we have been extra careful in storing them in a cool place, quite possibly Ihe car ind. or the boat that we intend In use will be Ihe holiest spot lhat we could subject our precious nishlcrawlers or garden worms lo sutfer. A little ice is wonderful to help keep the temperature below the killing point (or bait worms. It's quite a bit of trouble, hut well worth Ihe effort 1 think. If liquid rolrcshmonls are going along loo. the worms could be put down in Ihe cracked ice used to keep the soda pop cold. Remember tins however, care must he taken to keep the water from entering the worm carton, because worms can drown in a few minutes. Water will kill them as last as heat hat is Ihe reason that you see worms crawling on the streets and sidewalks atler a gooil hard rain They have left the protection of the ground, their natural home, for the sole reason ol self preserva tion. They would drown if they re mained. 'A new package lias been de veioped that helps to preserve bait worms without the use of ice II is of a porous paper-like maleri- il and when filled with worms and damp peat moss or other material, keeps Ihe contents cool by the aid of moisture evaporat ing from Us sides. The same prin ciple as canvas water bags or evaporative coolers." I IPaBc lesiggis Pi Pst KF Schools To Lose 31 -Year Staff Chief By CLAYTON HANNON Herald-News Sports Writer Joe Peak, for 31 years connect ed with athletics and physical edu cation in Ihe Kiamalh Falls school system, announced Wednesday he had submitted his resignation as director of physical education and nealth of the city schools. The resignation announcement by Peak came as a big surprise and opens a very important posi tion in Ihe schools' supervisory de partment. Peak, who established the first physical education and health program here in Klamath Kails, has beer in the local schools since 1927. After handing in his resignation to Superintendent Arnold Gralapp Wednesday, Peak announced he was moving his home to Brook ings, Oregon. With Joe will go his wile, fern, who has been a mem her of the city school teaching staff fpr over 20 years. Mrs. Peak has accepted a position in the Brook ings High School English depart ment. Peak said his first year at Brook ings will be spent building a home. "After that," he added, "we'll have to wait and see." Peak did Golfers Vie In Western DKTROIT (UPD Par is sure lo take a whipping in the 72-hole 55th Western Open golf tourna ment beginning today at the Red Run golf club with a more bril liant field lhan even Ihe U. S Open will command at Tulsa. Don January slashed six strukes off the par 72 layout in the final warmup rounds Wednesday with Gay Brewer of Lexington, Ky., turning in a 67 on the flat course. Lloyd Mangrum, 1046 U. S. Open champion and winner of the l!l:2 and 1054 westerns, called the Western contestants the best field ever entered "any place, in cluding the one they'll have in Tulsa for the Open." Only Ben Hogan and Jack Burke of the "big" names are missing from the list of 132 pro fessionals and 19 amateurs going for the $25,000 pot with the win ner taking $5,000. ken Vcnluri, holiest player on the tour, Sam Snead, Arnold Palmer and, surprisingly, Dr. Cary Middlecoff, are the chief favorites. Middlecoff hasn't won a tourna ment in two years but he's been shooting in the 60s and said he feels strong. Snead never has been able lo win in Detroit. A miserable 10 on par 4 hole killed his chances in Ihe Western here last year on the Plum Hollow course. The pros predicted the winner will have a four-day total of 272 lo 280 par is 238 and the course record is 274 say he had two or three things which have opened up for him, but would not disclose them at this lime. Right out of Ihe University of Oregon, Peak came lo Klamath Falls in 1927 for the purpose of es tablishing abd organizing a physi cal education and health program for the'eity schools. He kept this position until 1037 when he pur chased hall ownership in a local sporting goods and hardware deal ership. In 1940 he sold out and re turned to Kiamath Union High School as a health and science teacher and coach of freshman and Wildcat tsophomorel sports.

The following year he assisted foot ball mentor Frank Ramsey with tne Pelicans as backheld tutor. During 1942. Joe was named as director of athletics and physical education for all the city schools. lie held that position until 1957 when he stepped nut of the high school athletic program to devote all his time to the city s PE and health schedule. While here, Peak has served on the city parks and recreation hoard for 16 years and worked with the city recreation depart ment. Joe directed the recreation swimming program for several years and organized the boys Vic lory League basketball play which started in 1942. He has also worked on several statewide physical edu cation and health curriculum committees. "I feel Kiamalh Falls' school children have a fine physical edu cation program," Peak said Wed nesday, "and as in everything else, there is still some room for im provement. When I first came to Kiamath Falls, there wasn't a gym in the city. The high school (Klam ath County High School at that time) played in the old legion building. Now every grade school. junior high and high school has at least one gymnasium and good locker room and shower facilities. 1 hat s more than some school sys tems have now," Peak added. "It is hard to leave Klamath Falls," Peak remarked. "It's been good to us, but the opportunity in Brookings affords us a chance to improve our positions. I have en joyed working with the administra tion, faculty and students here, all of which 1 will miss areatlv." Peak and his wife have a son Jim, who graduated from the Uni versity of Oregon last spring wilh a science education degree. lie is now stationed at Fort Lewis, Wash ington.

Last year's start. under a new system was fouled up so' badly that two car,s were wrecked be lore they reached the starting line. Alter numerous wrecks in tha 1956, including one in the pits, tha pits were moved away from tha track and behind a concrete re taining wall. The new arrangement did away with the old system of wheeling cars out of their pits and lining them up in 11 three-car rows be fore the engines were started. The drivers started the engines in their pits, then scrambled into the proper order as the pace car made a parade lap. The flaw in the system was that the cars in the half-mile row of pits were not arranged in start ing order. Tomorrow the cars will be lined up in proper order, sin gle file, on Ihe pit apron.
