SMILEY Wtwiltvltw Correspondent) Delegation ol the Southwestern Oregon Sportsmen ! association Tuesday asked the assistance ol the Port of Umpqua commission in providing accommodations for launching and mooring small boats at Reedsport, Gardiner, and Winchester. Bay. This group consisted of Jack Hays of Westlake, president, M. H. Durbin. Ray Rookard, Ellis Dolan, Byron Serfling and Chat. Pfelffer of Gardiner, and Warren Waggoner of Reedsport. They were told that they should take their problem In Reedsport to the city council, with the possibility that the city and port might work together toward a solution. A committee from the port will Inspect the condition at Gardiner, where a hoist recently erected by individuals for use by the pub lic in lowering and raising small boats, is approximately 20 feel from the nearest water at ex treme low tide. Dredging Required A small dredging Job, or pos sibly digging a narrow channel by use of a towboat and letting its propeller churn out the mud, will be attempted soon if investi gation indicates this type of woik feasible. This would be only a temporary effort, to allow for the use of the hoist during the next Marijuana Possession Jails Two At Pendleton PENDLETON, Ore.. Aug. 6 (JP) Two Portland men, Francis co Salvadore Villegos, 29, and Jimmy Ralph Argenbar, 24, are in the county jail here awaiting a hearing before the U. S. Com missioner on a charge of pos session of marijuana. State Po lice arrested the two at StanfieM junction and said they found eight pounds of the drug in the car the two occupied. Villegos and Argenbar said the car and marijuana belonged to an other person, officers said, but did not divulge the name of the alleged owner. The sheriff's department here said Villegos Is on parole at pres ent from the State Penitentiary said he recently moved to Port land from Hawaii. few months. It was pointed out that the upper river, in the Gar diner and Reedsport vicinities, will soon be popular fishing grounds when the silverside run arrives. The main Interest of the group, however, was with conditions at Winchester Bay, which have been so bad during the past two months that it nas at times been impossible even to drive out onto the dock for the purpose of un loading a boat from a trailer or top of a car. The delegation was informed that the port commission was definitely interested In the proj ect at Winchester Bay from two standpoints: first in getting a disposal area for the deposit of material when the channel and turning and mooring basins are dredged. The port is obligated to furnish such disposal area, and the project is approved, and awaiting an appropriation. The port is also interested in developing the Winchester Bay locality for use by both commer cial and sport fishing craft, and has some tentative plans in this connection. Title Transfer Desired However, nothing along this line can be accomplished while the title remains with the county, and the transfer of property there, from Douglas county to the Port of Umpqua, has never been made although tentatively agreed upon a few years ago. The delegation expressed a de sire to work with the port, and asked that if the title transfer is made at a future date, and the group be considered for any con cessions that might be allowed on the dock, instead of making such a concession to an individ ual. In this way, any profit made from the concession would be used to further the wildlife con servation and development. A letter was read from Con tractor Tom Lillebo, asking per mission to use the south end of the port dock, now fenced off is unsafe for general use, for un loading trusses for the Smith Riv er bridge. In his letter, Lillebo agreed to make any repairs need ed at his own expense, and to hold the port free from responsi bility while using it. This permis sion was granted.
