LUNKERS STARTING TO FEED AT LAKE Some of Upper Klam
ath Lake's big rainbows are starting to forage now that the ice is
out. The trout cruise along the shallows this time of year and can
be taken with spoons and lures fished close to the bottom. The
favorite method of fishing, as shown here, is to cast out a dead
minnow, sit back and relax. At left, Mrs. Wilbur Anderson, South
Poe Valley, displays her hefty 5 'j -pounder. Marion Cain, 220 Pa
cific Terrace, landed the smaller fish. The center photo displays'
the minnow soaking technique. The most important equipment here
are the comfortable chairs. On the right is part of the "bonus" bag
from a day's outing; those odious chubs that apparently are begin
Ing to take over the lake. People in Klamath Falls have wondered (or
several years what can be done about the chub problem. If area
residents expect to enjoy good trout fishing in the big lake, the
time to take action on the chub situation is now.

The circuit court jury sitting in
judgment of Jerry Richard
Haines. 24. gun slaver of his preg
nant wile. Christine, was expected
to begin its deliberations some
time Wednesday altcrnoon and
bring to a close the first degree
murder trial which started 10 days
ago in I lie circuit court of Judge
David R. Vandcnlwig.
Attorneys, (or the slate and de
fense made their closing argu
ments to the jury early Wednes
day, capping testimony of tliel
previous day in which Haines tes
tified in his own behalf.
Haines was summoned to tho
witness stand about 10 a.m. and,
excluding the noon recess, testi
fied until the court adjourned at
4:47 p.m. The defendant reiter
ated remarks made during his at
torney s opening statements in
which it was .said the shooting
was accidental.
Haines appeared calm during
the early part of his testimony
but lost his composure at 0 n e
imint in Hie afternoon part of the
trial. The jury is composed ol
seven women and me men.
struck him on the head with a
rifle following the shooting.
Meanwhile, sheriff's deputies
were attempting to piece together
the tale of the gun battle during
which 15 shots were exchanged
between the estranged couple in
the home of Airs. Bell.
Deputies Jim Conroy and Lou
Bogart stated that the trouble
started early Tuesday morning
when Kness shattered a window
in the Bell hqusc, climbed through
it, and went to a bedroom occu
pied by Mrs. Knesj.
wnat lollowed is a subject lor
conjecture, deputies said.
Investigation has indicated that!
Kness opened fire on his wife wilhl
.22 caliber pistol, and seconds
later she returned the blasts with
a barrage fired from a .25 cali
ber automatic. Mrs. Bell suddenly
appeared with a rifle and directed
the barrel toward Kness.
For some reason she couldn't
explain, the rifle kept ejecting
shells rather than firing them.
During the next several mo
ments, Mrs. Bell struck Kness on
the head with the ride and, in
turn, was knocked down and beat
en by the latter. Meanwhile
Kncss's 12-year-old son Eugene
arrived at the scene and struck
ins lather on the head with an
ash tray, ending the melee.
Sheriff Murray "Red" Britton
staled Wednesday that deputies
were assembling physical evi
dence to send to the Portland
Crime Laboratory while other of
ficers were in Bly obtaining state
ments from Mrs. Kncss's five chil
dren who were in tlie house at
the time of the shooting.
District Attorney Dale Crahtrce
said that a formal complaint
would not be signed against Kness
until his condition improved.

air service. Later during the
meeting, Jim Misfeldt, Glass
Mountain Block, Inc., Klamath
Falls, told those present that 90
per cent of his firm's business
was with Nevada companies. If
the Reno flights were set up, Mis
feldt said he would use (he serv
ice about 15 times per 'month.
Sawyer also remarked that
Reno was solidly behind the proj
ect and would soon begin check
ing restaurants, hotels, and other
establishments to gel, a "ht-ad
count" of Orcgonians visiting or
passing through that city. The in
formation would be sent along
with the petition to the CAB to bol
ster the arguments for the need
of such a flight. Sawyer recom
mended that members of Eastern
Oregon chambers of commerce
conduct a similar head count of
Reno visitors staying in their re
spective cities in order to support
their case for the "need of the
flight on this end."
After Sawyer suggested some
of the material which should be
sent to the CAB in support of the
proposed flight, Haakenson ad
dressed the group on what infor
mation it would be expected to
present to the CAB substantiating
the claim that the flight would be
in the public interest.
Haakenson outlined his views
in five principal points. He said

BONANZA - A group of In
terested citizens met at the Bo
nanza Library Feb. 24 lo make
plans for an "Old-Timer's" pic
nic to be held in the Bonanza
Park on July 28.
Anyone having tlie names and
David addresses or information of old
limers living away from Klamath
County are requested 'to send the
information to Mis. John Brown,
or Mrs. Francis Lilly, Rt. 1, Bo
nanza, so that invitations may
be sent to them,
the group must show that tlie
present round-about air route to
Reno was either inefficient or too
time consuming; must prove a
real need for the service; pro
duce records showing the number
of passengers going to Reno on
flights originating from other
parts of Oregon, such as Port
land; show that the flight would
serve a real heed for business,
not just the casual traveler; pro
duce evidence that the Ore
gon cities and Reno were of a fi
nancial stature to support such
a flight.
Croson, representing West Coast
Air Lines, remarked later during
the meeting that if his firm were
awarded the franchise it would
probably schedule the flight by
way of Portland, Salem. Bend
Redmond. Lakeview, Klamath
Falls and Reno.
Three members of out-of-town
chambers of commerce voiced ap
proval of tlie plan during the
meeting. Don McNeil, manager
of the Medford chamber, said.
"We have always sought better air
service to Reno. Our problem is
that tlie present service is by way
of San Francisco and Sacramento
and is not efficient."
A. B. Johnson, representing Eu
gene, commented, "1 am here to
lend all possible support to tlie
program. We, have a large num
ber of people who visit Reno fre
quently and are in favor of this
proposed I light.
Rill Castle, Lakeview, stated.
"Lakeview has always sought
Ibis air service. We have been in
support of the Klamath County
chamber on this project and w
continue to do so."
Haakenson said a petition would
be prepared and mailed lo the
CAB sometime soon, but added
the CAB would probably not
schedule a hearing bolore six or
eight months after it is received.
