Working with the Roseburg Rod and Gun Club, Newcomb is sponsoring circulation of the slo gan, "Kill Less Catch More" with relation to angling. The slo gan Is designed to call attention to the fact that virtually all trout caught in the Umpqua River and its tributaries are of migratory species. If permitted to reach the ocean they will mature and re turn as large fish. Newcomb is working to educate anglers to retain only large fish, releasing the unhurt small trout so that they may furnish better sport at a later date. Through contribu tions made by Individual Rod and Gun club members, Newcomb has had signs printed and posted at all major fishing spots along the main river and on the North Umpqua, as a means of keeping the slogan constantly before ang lers. He is now working on a match cover which will carry the "Kill Less Catch More" slogan, along with the "Keep Oregon Given" reminder, thus providing a double conservation message. The match covers are being ordered In case lots bv Roseburg merchants who will have their firm names im printed as a means of advertising. Program Wins Favor At a meeting of the Rod and Gun club membership Tuesday evening, Newcomb reported marked success for the educa tional program and said that more orders already had been received for the matches than had been expected although only few merchants had been contacted. Reporting on the Umpqua River study, which he directs, Newcomb i'eDorted that a few steelheads still were passing the counting station at Winchester, but that the count was approxi mately 1500 behind last year. The count on Chinook salmon Is gaining, but the season Is very late. Despite a catch by sports anglers of 208 known salmon, It Is anticipated that this season's escapement, because of the late season, will be far greater than last year, although the evele as a whole is expected to be light, judging from records of five years ago. Rod and Gun club members ap proved a site for the indoor rifle range building to be erected bv the Roseburg Rifle club on the Winchester grounds, agreed to soonsor a scholarship for a 4-H club member selected for profi ciency In hatching and rearing pheasants, approved a prize con test arranged by Cecil Graves with an outboard motor, shot gun, target rifle and wrist watches as nries, and granted permission to St. Joseph's Parish to use the club grounds for a parochial school picnic.
