It's addressed to Mr. Fisherman and Mrs. Fisherman and Johnny and Jane Fisherman if they angle In Oregon waters. . The comish wants fish re pert cards. They are asking your cooperation In reporting each catch alter each fishing trip. The Idea Is to furnish aid la the body's program of stream surrey and fish libera tion. Working now under the com missions authority are four crews busy surveying state lakes and streams In order to determ ine the amount and species of fish to release in Oregon waters. Your report card, which may be obtained at your sporting goods store, will aid immeasur ably in helping the game men in their final decisions. The cards need neither signature nor postage. To every fisherman goes the earnest request they make it a regular habit to report catches during the entire 1M1 Nylon fishing leader material In continuous lengths is now available for the first time, a message from the du Pont Plas tics department reveals. It's pro duced in strengths from six pound test to 20-pound test.

It may be tied dry- cast dry. and straightened easily while still dry. High school bowlers, both boys and girls, will compete in a na tional tenpin patterned after the erniil ABC classic in the spring of 1843, Brunswick-Balke-Col-lender, which seem to have an interest, claims in a broadside. Plans were announced by Mil ton Raymer, chairman and sec retary of the newly chartered American High School Bowling congress. Raymer said the new congress will have members in prep leagues in every repre sentative city in time for the meet. The new group is chartered as a non-profit organisation and will be directed by high school teachers and students ia cooperation with bowling pro. prietors. With the interest shown here in Klamath Falls on the part of young bowlers, it appears the local kegling association might well look into the new proposi tion. Conn-Barlund Fight Set For Tonight CHICAGO, April 3 (UP) Pittsburgh Billy Conn conducts another experiment with a full grown heavyweight Friday night in his latest effort to prove his 182 pounds of blinding speed is more than enough to handle any man even Joe Louis. His target is Gunnar Barlund, a rugged Finn who never in his long career has lost a fight to a favorite. Although Conn will spot the Finn nearly 20 pounds, the young Irishman still is a 7 to 1 favorite to win a decision at 12 rounds. Promoter Bill Rand indicated the stadium may be sold out with a gate of $33.000 drawn chiefly by Irish Billy and the prospect of an upset. S. F.

There isn't a pushover In the field of eight, including Portland which wheezed over the course in 1940 with the anchor drag ging to end up 56 games behind Seattle's pennant winning com bination. Better balance, in the early reading, appears to have been attained throughout the circuit. Clubs without a wallop last year have come up with a fair punch, especially in the case of the aforementioned Portland squad. Some, Los Angeles in particular. may show less swat but more zip. Seattle Favored Pitching, as a whole, may not be as formidable as a year ago. Moundsmen like Dick Newsome of San Diego, Ardizoia and Flem ing of Hollywood, up for big league workouts, don't grow on trees. A few rookies might come through but they are in the long shot class. Seattle is the logical favorite because it is the least affected In the annual talent turnover. First Baseman George Archie was the biggest loss. Les Scar sella, a driving hitter, should provide ample replacement Unless the league does a one horse shay act and falls apart the first and last place clubs should be separated by not more than 20 games at the wind-up.

As Close Oscar VMS ' diction trance, here is another tubful: Seattle will lead the league in attendance again. Ted Norbert, who will slug for Portland this season, will lead the circuit in runs batted in and home runs (Crackerbox park). Jake Powell, new hired hand of the Seals, will lead all um pire baiters. Bill Skiff, new Seattle man ager, will get tossed out of more games than Bill Sweeney of Hol lywood or Oscar Vitt of Port land, (Skiff is Mr. Scrappy him self).

Angels LOS ANGELES, April 3 (UP) The University of Southern Cali fornia baseball squad scored its second consecutive victory over a Pacific Coast league team to day when it trounced the Los Angeles Angels, 11-4 Sophomore Pitcher Bob Folti. producing a puzzling change of pace, held the coast leaguers to four hits and one run .for six innings, allowing five scattered hits and three runs in the final three innings after the game was under Trojan control. Southern California defeated the Portland Beavers Wednes day. Battle Pepper Martin Ballou will gnash his teeth over this prediction. Ray Harrell of Portland will strike out the most batters. Rookies most likely to make good will be J. Wellington "Wimpy" Quinn, Los Angeles first sacker, and Bill Rlgney, Oakland shortstop. Edo Vanni, Seattle outfielder, will lead the league in hitting. Either Don Guttcridge of Sac ramento or Jojo White of Seat tle will snatch base stealing hon ors from John Barrett of Holly wood. Barrett, with the Seals last season, was the league's leading bag burglar. LeRoy Parmelee, new Seals acquisition, will make the other wild pitchers look tame by com parison. San Diego will again produce more red hot fans per square foot than the rest of the clubs can round up in a bleacher row. t NOW a wax . t m im rotMi r nr, n - m im jw-M-vi i soo KIIILIH'I PfllVATI B LINO A ILINDID WHttNIV, Tl Neutral lottitt tftatlffaft from Oraln.

Senate Votes Boost In Farm Parity WASHINGTON, April 3 VP) Rejecting economy pleas, the senate voted today to increase from $212,000,000 to $430,000, 000 the "parity payments" pro vided in the annual farm appro priation. The vote approving the larger sum was 61 to 9. The house previously had ap proved $212,000,000 for these benefit payments to farmers complying with administration programs but the senate accept ed the $238,000,000 increase recommended by its appropria tions committee. Of the total $130,000,000 would be used to step up payments on this year's crops. With this major controversy decided, leaders expected quick approval of the record-breaking $1,340,610,744 farm bill.

South Twin Poisoned Tons of Troih Fish Die Following Toxic Action BEND, April 3 MV-Tons of trash fish, principally chubs, floated to the surface Monday following the poisoning of South Twin lake with derris root, Charles A. Lock wood said yes terday. The 60-acre lake In the upper Deschutes basin was cleaned out with dvrris root compound spread In marginal waters and scattered with depth bombs, Lockwood, game department of ficial In charge, reported. He termed the experiment highly successful. South Twin, which has no outlet, will remain toxic for about a week. Restocking with large trout flngcrllngs is planned for 1942. Dead fish were removed and buried as they succumbed to the suffocating root, which is harmless to humans. Chubs were introduced to the lake by bait fishermen. Lock wood said, and multiplied rap idly, soon devouring all natural foods and virtually exterminat ing the trout. The experiment was watched by state and federal game offi cials, who said the same meth ods might be used in other lakes. MARION HOLLINS TAKES CYPRESS LEAD DEL MONTE.
