Clem Heater&apos;s report from Lake Cushman Resort says the silvers began hitting again and are "big and worth the effort", but the "best news is that cutthroat are now hitting and will continue un- til close of the season October 31." Some cutthroat to ltA lba. were checked through the resort but the average is 9 to 10 inches. Trolling the shoreline with or without a troll and no weight is getting re. suits, Mrs. Heater reports. Silvers are still deep but are running to 14 inches consistently. Some rainbow are also hitting now, she said. Other fresh water areas are do- ing well, too, with a scarcity ot feed in some lakes presaging hot fishing for the tailend of the sea- son. On the other hand, tgo much feed is plaguing ]t water an- glers, who say there are plenty oI fish in Hood Canal but the plenti- tude  herring makes it difficult to tempt them. Ole Kjonaas picked up three on two trips last, week, two of 5 lbs., a King at 12. Eldon Todd had a King at 10-1 Sunday, Galen Burgess an 8-1b. ilver Saturday.

GROUSE WILD Grouse hunting has been fea- tured by unusual wildness on the part of the usually docile birds this year, according to many who have tried their hand. Floyd Lord's limit Sunday is one of very rare reports of suc- cess to date. ARCHERS ITCHING Devotees of the bow-and-arrow sport are itching to form a local rub and anyone tnterted in such tn activity is invited to contact Merritt Wingard at Wingard's port Shop for further informa- l.ion. Wingard has erected targets behind his store Which he invites myone who wishes to use.

BLAZERS SCRIMMAGE FOR STARTING POSTS FRI. AFTERNOON Speedy Times Fool Rpon Owners; Pole Fassio Birds Score Mason County pigeons made ex- cellent times Sunday in the final race in the series for young birds, so good, in fact, that at least one loft owner was caught completely by surprise. Pete Fassio's entries took three of the top four places in the race originating at the 300-mile sta- Uon in Roseburg, Oreg. His blue bar hen averaging 1301.36 yards per minute was a fraction of a yard ahead of Larry Johnson's blue check hen at 1300. 53 YPM. Two other Fassi0 en- ries took third and fourth, a sin er hen at 1297.33 YPM and a blue check cock at 1295.96 YPM. Dick Giles was the surprised loft owner. He hadn't expected anything like the time and was not at home when his first three birds arrived so he didn't get times on them. "The winds up here were against them," he comnented. "They must have had good tail winds at the start." Giles had the satisfaction, how- ever, of having the top average times for the five-race young bird program at 1144 YPM. Dean Smith of Union was second at 1139.86 and Fassio, also of Union, third at 1137.66 YPM. Racing will be suspended now until next spring, when adult l bird events will open the 196( season.

Chub Nutt 227 High total -- Bill Roberts 613 To slender Bill Roberts goes the honor of hanging up the year's first 600 series in Shelton bowl- ing play. With a consistent 203-203-207 pace, he banged off a 613 total in the men's Commercial league last Wednesday night, a feat which steered Local 161 to a 3-1 victory over the Moose (Cliff Howard 549) and into a first place tie with Wingard's Sport Shop (Harry Pe- terson 511), which duplicated that decision over Gott Oil (Lloyd Clark 488). Two shutouts completed tim night's play, B & R Oil (Fred Snelgrove 208 and 574) blanking Verle's Sporting Goods lEd Byrne 483), and Rltner's (Chub Nutt 227 and 555), Sonny Lowe 564) goose- egging Delight Park (Don How- ard 505). ing bowed into its 1959-60 sched- ule last week at ShelL.on Rec, but her efforts came m a losing cause when Shelton Recreation lost to Mick's Tavern  Alice Crosses 437 ). All decisions went by 3-1 mar- gins, other victors being Raipier Beer (Rubye Frisken 454.) over Log Cabin {Pearl Archer 334), Lmke's Service (Betty McLain 400) over Olympia Beer (Jan Hoff 401), and Ritner's Straight Shots (Norma Coram 434} over Lucky Lager (Pat Truman 374). =, Battles for starting assignments in the Blazers opening game Sep- tember 25 ....... the night tilt with Washington of Olympia in the Ki- v'nis Club benefit - ..... will hit a pinnacle this Friday afternoon when Coach Bill Brlckert pits the Greens against the Whites in a full scale scrimmage. Fans are invited to come out and watch the head-banglng, which gets under way about 4:00 o'clock. Much of Brickert's decisioning regarding starting calls for the September 25 game will come out of the showings of the gladiators in this scrimmage. THE BLAZER mentor express- ed pleasure at how fast the squad has come along up to this point In its training, which consisted of ten turnouts through Tuesday after- noon, the main weakness rearing its ugly head at this time being a lack of depth. "We have 14 or 15 kids who look pretty good," Brickert said, "but beyond that we're going to have to hold our breath." Defensively the club has shown .good potential with some of the rural boys from Kamilche and Hoedsport taking leading roies in these early workouts.

Manager Ed Miller's club scored 9-0 and 4-2 victories respectively over Oakville and Nisqtmlly to capture the tomey title. Lee Johns, a surprise starter in Saturday's game, blanked host Oakville with a two-hit, seven strikeout slab job. With plenty of stuff,, Johns has had trouble get- ting the ball where he aimed, but he walked., only three Oakville hitters and had the game under complete control all the way. ALEC GOULEY'S double to left- center in the second inning driv- ing in Mel Smith, who had sin- gled to left, gave Johns the run he needed for victory, but the Sko- komish sluggers went on with a 12-hit attack to submerge their victims. Ray Johns singled home Pete Peterson, who was on second aft. er an error and wild pitch, for a third inning tally, then Skoko- mish broke the game wide open in the fifth ,with a seven-run spree in which Jtm Byrd's double to left- center cleared the bases.

After hearing and dis- cussing the suggestions action was deferred until a later' meet- ing in November, aving the re- presentatives of t h e various schools time to digest aud tlmr- oughly think out the ramifications of the suggestions.

BLAZERS SCRIMMAGE FOR STARTING POSTS FRI. AFTERNOON Speedy Times Fool Rpon Owners; Pole Fassio Birds Score Mason County pigeons made ex- cellent times Sunday in the final race in the series for young birds, so good, in fact, that at least one loft owner was caught completely by surprise. Pete Fassio's entries took three of the top four places in the race originating at the 300-mile sta- Uon in Roseburg, Oreg. His blue bar hen averaging 1301.36 yards per minute was a fraction of a yard ahead of Larry Johnson's blue check hen at 1300. 53 YPM. Two other Fassi0 en- ries took third and fourth, a sin er hen at 1297.33 YPM and a blue check cock at 1295.96 YPM. Dick Giles was the surprised loft owner. He hadn't expected anything like the time and was not at home when his first three birds arrived so he didn't get times on them. "The winds up here were against them," he comnented. "They must have had good tail winds at the start." Giles had the satisfaction, how- ever, of having the top average times for the five-race young bird program at 1144 YPM. Dean Smith of Union was second at 1139.86 and Fassio, also of Union, third at 1137.66 YPM. Racing will be suspended now until next spring, when adult l bird events will open the 196( season.

With a consistent 203-203-207 pace, he banged off a 613 total in the men's Commercial league last Wednesday night, a feat which steered Local 161 to a 3-1 victory over the Moose (Cliff Howard 549) and into a first place tie with Wingard's Sport Shop (Harry Pe- terson 511), which duplicated that decision over Gott Oil (Lloyd Clark 488). Two shutouts completed tim night's play, B & R Oil (Fred Snelgrove 208 and 574) blanking Verle's Sporting Goods lEd Byrne 483), and Rltner's (Chub Nutt 227 and 555), Sonny Lowe 564) goose- egging Delight Park (Don How- ard 505). ing bowed into its 1959-60 sched- ule last week at ShelL.on Rec, but her efforts came m a losing cause when Shelton Recreation lost to Mick's Tavern  Alice Crosses 437 ).

Fans are invited to come out and watch the head-banglng, which gets under way about 4:00 o'clock. Much of Brickert's decisioning regarding starting calls for the September 25 game will come out of the showings of the gladiators in this scrimmage. THE BLAZER mentor express- ed pleasure at how fast the squad has come along up to this point In its training, which consisted of ten turnouts through Tuesday after- noon, the main weakness rearing its ugly head at this time being a lack of depth. "We have 14 or 15 kids who look pretty good," Brickert said, "but beyond that we're going to have to hold our breath." Defensively the club has shown .good potential with some of the rural boys from Kamilche and Hoedsport taking leading roies in these early workouts.

Manager Ed Miller's club scored 9-0 and 4-2 victories respectively over Oakville and Nisqtmlly to capture the tomey title.

ALEC GOULEY'S double to left- center in the second inning driv- ing in Mel Smith, who had sin- gled to left, gave Johns the run he needed for victory, but the Sko- komish sluggers went on with a 12-hit attack to submerge their victims.
