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.

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.

Joe Peak, for 31 years connect

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

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

her of the city school teaching staff
fpr over 20 years. Mrs. Peak has
accepted a position in the Brook

Peak said his first year at Brook

"After that," he added, "we'll
have to wait and see." Peak did

favorites.
Middlecoff hasn't won a tourna

shooting in the 60s and said he
feels strong.
Snead never has been able lo

in Ihe Western here last year on
the Plum Hollow course.

Right out of Ihe University of

for the'eity schools. He kept this
position until 1037 when he pur

ified cars before 8:30 a. m. to
morrow, when all engines must
be turned off until the race starts.
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.
