DIDN'T GET AWAY One of the nicest catches of trout seen in these parts for many a day was
made Friday on the North Umpqua by the lucky fishermen pictured above. From the left they
are: Bill Marsters, Emmett Long, Chuck Long and Bob Meredith. Where on the North Umpqua
did they get them? -You might as well query a prospector, before he registered his claim, who
just had discovered the mother lode. (Picture by Paul Jenkins. I

Oregon's sharp decrease in 1949
traffic deaths gained momentum
during May with a tentative total
of 25 fatalities compared to 44 in
the same month last year. Secre
tary of State Newbry reported.
The year's death toll to date
stands at 96, a reduction of 35
per cent from 149 at the same
time last year. This figure is the
lowest since 1944, when traffic
volumes were less than half their
present level, Newbry said.
Only three of the May fatali
ties occurred in cities, two in
Pendleton and one in Medford.
Portland and Multnomah county
were death-free .for the second
consecutive month.
"Although the drop In deaths
is most spectacular, it is equally
gratifying to see that the number
of accidents and injuries has also

"Too often this side of the pic

He said Oregon is leading the
nation in reducing traffic deaths,

agencies to prevent a recurrence

219 persons lost their lives in the

Alarm Calls Firemen,
Drunk Gets Their Feast
WASHINGTON, June 14.-W)
Mix firemen, fried chicken, an
alarm and a drunk and you get a
little story like this:
The men of No. 2 truck com
pany were sitting down to a fried
chicken dinner when the fire
alarm sounded. They dashed off
to answer the call of duty.
It was just a small fence
blaze. And they were back in
30 minutes, hungrier than ever.
But all that was left of the chick
en dinner was a neat pile of
bones.
A block away a drunk was
weaving his way happily until
the firemen caught him and
noticed grease on his face and
hands.
He pleaded guilty to intoxica
tion in municipal court yester
day, and Judge Myers suspended
his sentence, as he does with
most drunk suspects who come
