Crusading W o m a n Sportman
Saves Trapped Fish From Anglers
Local sportsmen are proposing
that the new entrance to the Rogue
River be known as Blessing Chan
nel. - Viola Blessing, who operates the
laboratory at the Medical Arts
building in Roseburg, is an ardent
sportswoman.
She recently became very dis
turbed by conditions at the mouth
of the Rogue River.
Under the direction of the Army
engineers, a new channel has been
built at the mouth of the Rogue
River, It is designed to permit
small boats to pass in and out,
something that couldn't be done
before because of the wide, shal
low bar.
Construction ' work necessitated
the building of a narrow channel
with jetties- and the closing of the
old channel.
The contractor, it seems, closed
off the old channel but didn't have
the new channel open. Water es
caped through the jetty.
Pit Against Jetty
. Confused fish piled up against
the jetty. Meat hungry fishermen
busily began snagging salmon con
centrated on the ocean side of the
Jetty.
Mrs. Blessing tried to contact
the Oregon Game Commission
through the local office, only to
find that the chief officials were
out of town. Then she tried to
contact the state game director at
Portland. Again without results.
Mrs. Blessing wasn't quitting,
however. She finally succeeded in
getting Gov. Mark Hatfield on the
telephone, demanding action.
And she got ill
Within a comparatively few min
utes the governor called her back
and told her that the matter was
getting immediate attention.
All fishing off the jetty was im
mediately stopped. The Corps of
Engineers took steps to deepen and
open the new channel and to seal
the jetty and the old channel.
Thai's why local sportsmen in
sist that the new entrance to the
Rogue River shall be known as
Blessing Channel. .
Fifth Ranked Roseburg Club
Meets Thurston High Eleven
The fifth ranked Roseburg In
dians travel to Springfield for
gridiron duel with Thurston Satur
day night at 8.
Roseburg will attempt to keep its
unbeaten record unblemished Sat
urday night against the explosive
Lane County 11. Roseburg opened
the season with a victory over
Grants Pass and then continued
its winning streak against Ashland
and norm tugene.
Varied Offanu
One of the main reasons for the
Indians successful season opening
and high state rating is the varied
offensive attack used by Roseburg.
Along with the fine offense, the In
dians also boast one ot tne Deucr
defensive units in the state.
Coach Roy Thompson reports
that bis squad is in good physical
condition for Saturday's game and
feels that Thurston will be rough
in spite of the 47-0 shellacing it
took at tne nanas oi me aiarsn-
field Pirates.
Fullback Mike Flury will be back
in the ostartine lineup for the In
dians Saturday. Flury was injured
in the opening minutes ot me Asn
land contest and remained on the
bench for the rest of the game,
Last week the hard-charging full
back saw limited action against
North Eugene, being used mainly
on offense.
Leading the Insians attack will
be quarterDack Mine urunaage,
currently one of the leading pass
ers in the state. At the halfback
slots will be Scott Crenshaw and
Marlin Burgess.
Edlon Davis will anchor the In.
dians forward wall holding down
the center position. Surrounding
Davis in the line will be tackles
Bruce Babbitt and Pete nutter
guards Ken King and Jim M union
ends Ray Palm and Tom Hobbs.
Hobbs replaced Leonard Blix at
left end after Blix broke an ankle
during a practice session at Fin-
lay Held.

The Indians defensive unit will
be led by Tackle Glen Goddard
and ends Bob Roark and Doui
Lyda. Goddard packs the weight
iur me inaians lorwara wan tip
ping the scales at 220 pounds,
while Roark was the outstanding
piayer againsi norm tugene re
covering four fumbles, and run
ning one back for a TD.
Paul Brother! will come into the
Roseburg backfield on defense
along with Tom Thurber to add
speed to the Indians oass defense.
Another defensive change will find
tackle Bruce Hanford in to
strengthen the line. Hanford is the
lone freshman on the Roseburg
varsity.
Thurston, a new high school at
spnngueld, is playing its first sea
son of football. The Thurston 11
does not compete in the Midwest
ern league at tne present time
rather it plays an independent
schedule as does Cottage Grove
and Willamette.
In the opening game of the sea
son Thurston faced a strong Marsh-
field club and lost 47-0. The next
week the Springfield team came
back with a different offense and
defense to down Sutherlin 324.
The "gap - six" defense used
against Sutherlin Droved effective
especially when it came to keep
ing the ball carrier inside the end
positions. This defensive pattern
can also be rough on a passing
team as it is difficult to get a re
ceiver iA the clear.
Thurston has a fast ' group of
backs and quarterback Fred Wil
lis can pass when necessary. Along
with Willis in the backfield will
be fullback Jack McCreray and
halfbacks Merrill Burge and Joel
Peacock.
Lining up in the forward wall
for the Thurston 11 will be ends
Jim Boyd and Dick Putnman;
tackles Toby Stucky and Mike Be
Bout; guards Bob Newby and Al
Beam; and center Bob Wicks. Al
though not the heaviest line
around, coach Otis "Bo" Clingman
feels he has a determined group
of boys up front that can make, it
rough on ball carriers.
Thurston is reported to run from
a standard T formation, sticking
pretty close to the ground. The
fullback and halfbacks will take
turns plunging into the line and
skirting the end. However, the
Lane County 11 is capable of tak
ing to the air and being success-
fur at it.

Deer Hunters
Asked To Use
Note System
Naturally you don't expect to get
lost or injured wnen you go nunung
thin fall.
But it's sensible insurance to jot
down the make, model, color and
license number of your car togeth
er with information on the specific
location where you plan to hunt
and leave it with your family when
you go.
It's wise to call home if you
change your plans enroute. And it
pays to leave a dated note on your
car when you get into the woods,
telling the direction you have gone
and your estimated length of slay.
These tips were ottered to Hunt
ers today by Sam Robb of Willam
ette Valley Lumber Co., Dallas,
chairman of the Oregon Committee
of American Forest Products In
dustries, as Oregon neared the
opening of hunting season.
Robb said virtually all forest In
dustry Tree Farm lands will be
open to hunters. The precautions
suggested, he said, will aid forestry
crews immeasurably in finding any
person who gets lost or injured
while nunung.
The industry spokesman pointed
out that while the primary purpose
of commercial timberlands is pro
duction of wood for man's use,
hunting is one of the many recre
ational uses wnicn inese same lor
ests also serve.
"Today's high level of multiple-
use forest management on Ore
gon's industrial Tree Farms to as
sure maximum sustained produc
tion of timber crops has also im
proved these timberlands as wild
life habitats," he declared.

Nimrods Urged To Keep
Eye Open For Hooligans

fAUl JONES DISTIUINO COMPANY, lOUISVUli, (X . M PWOf 7Zi 0AIN NtUTKAl 5PWTS
State game director, Phil Schnei
der on the eve of the state-wide
general deer season, urged all
hunters to be careful with fire
and firearms, to respect the rights
and property ot others, and to be
law abiding. He requests that all
conscientious nimrods be on the
lookout for "woods hooligans" this
year and to ridicule them out of
the fields and forests.
Schneider mentioned - that al
ready some of these undesirable
characters have been out causing
considerable damage which is a
direct threat to the hunting free
dom we now enjoy. Vandalism was
apparent recently around Baker
and Pendleton in eastern Oregon
by "Destructo Hooligans" who shot
insulators from nigh tension lines
putting the lines out of service
Shot Cuts Lin .
Some 200 families were vithout
in the Rieth area when some hoo
ligan blasted the control cable
with a shotgun, cutting 40 of the
51 pairs of wires. The control
cable between Pendleton and Ba
ker was also damaged by shotgun
oiast. i
Schneider also pointed out that
18 hunters have been firearms cas
ualties already this year while
while hunting, four of which were
fatal. In almost all instances in
vestigation points a finger to care
lessness as the cause.
Barefooted Trigger Tapper
Gross Ignorance of the rules of
gun safety was displayed by a
young hunter riding in a car with
his .2 rifle pointing toward his
shoulder. Barefooted, he reached
up and began playing with the
trigger with his toe.
Another hunter grabbed a load
ed gun by the muule and attemp
ted to break up a dog fight and
received a bullet through his chest
for hit ignorance of the safety
rules. Death was instantaneous.
A third hunter shot himself when
he ran through the brush with a
gun cocked and ready to fire.
Although no fires have been
traceable to hunters so far this
year, the fire danger remains high
throughout much of the state and
hunters are urged to use extreme
care so there will be no black
mark on the record. Unless rains
come to dampen eastern Oregon
forests and range lands this fire
danger will not diminish.
Schneider said that lightning
fires in eastern Oregon this sum
mer caused considerable damage
to several big game ranges. Hard
est hit were the Snake river deer
and the Wenaha elk winter ranges.
To prevent additional damage to
big game ranges, Schneider urged
hunters to drown all campfires,
break every match, and crush cig
arettes and pipe ashes. Make sure
every spark is out.
Schneider wished all anortsmen
the best of success and an enjoy-
aoie nunung trip.

Tigers To Meet
JV Creekcrs
The Canyonville Tigers will be
after their first win of the season
Saturday night at 7:30 when they
travel to Myrtle Creek to clash
with the Vikings Junior Varsity.
Canyonville opened the season
with a 37-0 loss to Oakland and
then the B 11 lost a heart-breaking
16-12 decision to its second A-2
opponent, Rogue River. The Vik
ing JV's have played one game
and suffered a 29-0 setback at the
hands of the Glide Junior Varsity.
Coach Don Simonieg of the Tig
ers reports that he has a very
young inexperienced squad, with a
tough schedule. The Tigers have a
lot of reserve power on the bench,
but along with the starting lineup
most of tne reserves are young.
With two tough games out of the
way the Tigers offense should have
the necessary experience to start
moving the ball. Against Rogue
Rivor the Canyonville 11
came back in the second half after
trailing 16-0 to score two tallies.
Quarterback Fred Grunst leads
the offensive unit for the Tigers
and is capable of connecting in an
aerial game as his 45-yard TD
aerial to end Loren Powell against
Rogue River proved. Alternating at
the quarterback slot with Grunst
will be a freshman, Rod Phelan.
Another freshman Richard Milp
is expected to see action at one
halfback slot while Terry Soeteber
wiu mi me other naifback posi-
uon. iiunninff irom tne ftii hark
position will be Leroy Sondenaa

Central Scores Win
A strong grid team from Cen
tral Junior High School smashed
the junior high club from Myr
tle Creak 34-0 In a contest at
Myrtle Creak Thursday after
noon. ' I
The Central squad, coachad by
Jim Cragory, stopped tha Creak
ars cold with a strong dafante
while racking up their own 34
points on some fin. running and
passing work.
JV's showed good speed and drive
in the backfield as the JV's moved
the ball into paydirt twice and
added a field goal for their 16
points. J
Show Good Spaed
Halfbacks Al Joelson and Arlan
Gilliland showed good speed as
they broke through the defense for
long gains. Quarterback Larry Wat
son handled the signal calling for
the JV's as he led bis team to the
victory.
The Frosh scored their only TD
late in the final period with quar
terback Jim Ecamer leading the
way to the end zone. With three
minutes remaining in the game
the Froh tried desperately to
score again, but were stopped by
the hard-charging defensive unit of
the .ftinior Varsity.
In regular play Roseburg's JV's
have a record of one win and one
loss. The season opener saw the
local 11 smash South Eugene 45-6,
and then lose to Grants pass in a
heartbreaker 16-12.
Penalties Hurt
Penalties hurt the Indians JV's
in their only loss as the local
squad would get near the goal line
the ball would be moved back 15-
yards due to a miscue. This hap-
Pened several times in the Grants
ass contest and coach Ernie Rob
inson feels that it cost his team
the victory.
Leading the offensive attack Sat
urday will be quarterback Watson,
Watson handled the signal calling
against South Eugene and proved
he can carry the ball as well as
pass it.
Joelson may not be in uniform
for the JV's in the Marshfield
game as the speedy halfback will
make the trip to Thurston with the
varsity. If Joelson does not play
Richard Flink will move in
fill the vacant halfback slot.
Holborow Plays Full
Gilliland will be in the starting
lineup at the wingback position and
Bill Holborow will handle the full
back duties. Another back that will
be out of action Saturday is Earl
Dixon who is deer hunting.
Offensive tackle George Gibbey
is on the doubtful list for the com
ing contest as he is recuperating
from an injured knee.
The Marshfield 11 is reported to
be strong and big, with a hard
charging forward wall. The coastal
power will come into Roseburg hop
ing to upset the Indians JV's.
