DICKISON TIlE¥'RE SAYING • , , This being Clu'istmas week antl one jammed so full of things to do the Sideliner should be twins, he's going to take the easy way out of column-writing by lifting contemporary Bill Mattiek's words from his "Sports Shorts" in ttel Centralia Chronicle of recent is- sue• Bill writes: George Hermes, Shelton high school principal, made the sanie suggestion Saturday about South- west Wahlagton athletic leagues that we were discussing with Principal Harohl Gehrke of the Centralia high school the other day. Hel'mes told memhers of the onthwest Washington Athletic association lie thougilt it would be a good idea to reshuffle all the leagues so that each league would be made up of approximately the same teams in all major sports ...... football, basketball and baseball. • He pointed out that this change would make for a better spirit of competition and would increase the interest and support of the general public by engendering a natural year-after-year rivalry in all of the sports. Tim Shelton school official suggested that Chelmils, en- trails, Shelton, Aberdeen, Ho- qulam and Olymplit wonld make np a good league. The rivalry is natural and traveling dis- tances would be cut to g mini- mum. That league would be the same as the junior high setup, which matches those same six teams in football, basketball and track. The way the high school lea- gues are lined up now in South- west Washington, they don't cor- respond in any two sports. In football, the Southwest Washington league spreads from O1. pla, Aberdeen ami Iloqulam southward to Vancm|ver. The Central A loop Includes Sbeiton, Montesano, Elma, St. Martin's, Chehalis and Raymond. Moving into basketball, we find a completely new breakdown in the leagues. Shelton moves out of the Central league into the nor- thern division, along with Olym- pia, Centralia, Aberdeen and Ho- quiam. Kelso, Longview and Van- couver join with Battle Ground nd Camas to form tim southern division. In baseball still again the lea- 7ue makeup is altered. Centralia and Chehalis finally get into the same league, along with Shelton and Olympia. Aberdeen and Ho- quiam drop over into competition with Elma and Montesano. The southern division basketball lea- gue stays pretty well intact for the diamond sport.

Tim new three- division basketball arrangement eame abont because some small schools were getting snowed under too often hy larger Scbools. What to do with St. Martin's prep at Lacey was also a problem that led to the change. The Rang- ere were dechu'ed too strong for B league competition, st) they were shoved into A competition m both football and basketball. But where care has been taken to divide the schools according to size in football gnd basketball, such is not the case in haseball. Elms and Montesano are in She same league as big Aberdeen, and Chehalis and Shelton compete with Olympia. So you can see thai u resbnf- fling (if lealgqles to get tile teams Into similar grOllii, in all sports wouhln't be lln easy job. But we think Mr. llermc's suggestion is a good one and should receive some consider't- thin. THIS 'N TIIAT If there's a sports fan--stun or woman.--who can beat Ami Eac- rett's interest in things athletic let's hear about him or her now or forever hold your peace. Over a week's period just re- cently Ann witnessed 11 basket- ball games, taking in five city league encounters, two high school doubleheaders, and one junior high double-bill. She had to travel all the way to Poulsl)o for one of the prep programs. And she was still thirsting for more after that "spree." Ann lilts a particular reason for watching the high school games as her son, Bob, plays on the ltighcllmber B team, but it's just plain slmrts fan interest which takes her to every junior high and city leagne game. Stop to think of it, husband Francis is generally right there with Ann, so perhaps that accolade should come under the heading! heard so often "you can say that again." Johnny Dunbar, ex-Highclimber hoop scoring ace, appears to have won himself a starting berth at one of the forward spots on the Grays Harbor junior college bas- ketball team. Those tedious but so important duties of secretary-treasurer have been relinquished by Bob Kier to the charge of Jobnny Storts in the Commercial Bowling' League, not so long ago.

ILLEGAL TRADE IN FISH BARRED An order designed to augment biological data and to circumvent sales of illegally caught fish was issued today by the department of fisheries. It makes mandatory the use of official Washington State fisti tickets in all commercial trans- actions and requires the signature of the fisherman as well as the dealer on the tickets: Exact loca- tion of food and shellfish catches must be indicated• Failure to meet these requirements is a punishable offense. Director Alvin Anderson said he has" "put teeth" in the new regulation to counter poaching and Lo obtain statistical information necessary to maintain sound man- agement of the fisheries. In the past ninny dealers have been lax in furnishing the proper data, he said. ltow does altitude affect motor performance? Since air pressure is lower in the mountains, iL is necessary to set the carburetor for a lean mixture. Thus more oil should be used to compensate for the reduction of fuel flowing into the nlotor. Mann factnrers now recommend the following' dosage: An increase of 20 percent at 4- 5.000 feet; 25 percent at 5-6,000 feet; and 30 percent above 6,000 feet. What size motor sllonld be nsed with the or(Unary nonlllaning boat? This point is most fre- quently debated by anglers who use coastal waters and rivers where tides and tricky currents are encountered, Most of them favor ample power, a motor as large as the boat will permit. But there is another large group which favors a smaller motor.
