PACING ROUNDUP
R, C. Woodruff, the active
nan behind this second year
Klamath effort at horse-racing,
reveals that over 200 camels
save signed, with exquisite pen-
nanship, to race nere iwixi
'una, 11 nnrl June 21. inclusive
iates of the Klamath Jockey
tlub meeting.
This virtually fills the local
133 horse stable capacity.
Of the owners who last fall
raced at the Fairgrounds, most
have re-entered Indicating
satisfaction with the way the
thing was run. In addition
Woodruff has received entries
irom stablemen as far south
as Phoenix. Aril.
Thus far we have lined up
Art G ruber from San Mateo, cur
rently racing eight head at Bay
Meadows; Will McPherson from
John Day, Ore.; R. G. Vantatta.
Chico; M. D. Wilson, Phoenix;
R. A. Hume, Bakersfield; C. C.
Conley out of Red Bluff; Jack
Hudson of San Mateo, now rac
ing at Bay Meadows; and Jack
Miller, owner of Fervorita which
last fall paid off well and often
locally.
The June meeting this sum
mer should fare far better than
the weather-hampered attempt
of 1940. On that occasion,
only the hardiest of Klamath
followers braved icy Fair
grounds winds with any de
gree of consistency and the
consequent take was smaller
than expected.
With fine weather a practical
cinch, the coming meet should
draw a full house through its
entire run.
FISH FACTS
The first of D. H. Peoples'
Bend Tourist Greeter guides for
this year came lurching off the
press over the weekend.
Peoples, with the assistance
of Myra Loeber, discloses that
the best "hot spot" of the young
season is SutUe lake, "with lim
its being taken all over the
place." The best time of day
for bluebacks, claims the Guide,
is either from 9 to 10 in the
morning or from 6 to 7 in early
evening. Lures being used are
salmon eggs and worms.
Mrs. Minnifer of Prlneville
on opening day bagged a giant
Eastern Brook measuring 271
inches and weighing almost
12 pounds.
The Deschutes is paying off
well, says the Bend dope, but
nothing much is known of lake
fishing other than at Suttle.
Joe Wharton reports from
Grants Pass that salmon fishing
is still not up to seasonal nor
mal, due principally to con
tinued discoloration of the
water. Several fine fish were
caught recently, however, along
the Grants Pass section of the
Rogue.
