I> AMBLINGS IV OUTDOOR '•K BY LANS LANEVE Recently an article written by the Game Comm ission's cor respondent was accorded space In newspapers published In var ious parts of the state. The article dealt exclusively with steelhead fishing, and was of a very Informative nature, that is , to the novice and the unskilled fisherman in general; but It was no doubt taken with that proverbial grain of salt by the seasoned angler. Such persons long since have ac quired the habit of relying en tirely upon their own Initia tive when it comes to the match ing of wits against that of the lronheads, by resorting to those "tricks of the trade" that have Commissioners Weekly Report The board of county co n i- m issicnersm etw ithjerry Orrick, ex ecu tiv e secretory of the As sociation of Oregon Counties for an afternoon session and in the even in g t h e group m et with other interested citizens to dis cuss the |<ossibility of forming a housing authority to fulfill the n e e d for new housing in the county.

The article was captioned, “ Where are the Steelhead?” That’s exactly, what no doubt, thousands of fishermen have been asking them selves, and all otiier steelheaders encountered fishing our coastal stream s during the past several weeks; that Is, when such waters w ere fishable. It still Is the ques tion of the day, wherever fish ermen may be found. FISH DISAP PEAR- FISHERMEN BAFFLED Ih e season started out with a bang, good catches were taken from most of the fish eries up and down the Oregon coastline. Then, almost "over-nlght-over storm " might describe the situ ation far better. The steelle s disappeared In the wake of a sue ces slon of storm s that served to raise the waters to flood-level stage. It was predicted by anglers in general, as being just what was needed In order to bring In a fresh run of steelle s, ana In far greater numbers than the first rains had produced. But alas, when the water finally receded to a fishable condition, the fish w ere not to be found; it appeared that they had almost entirely disappeared from their usual favorite habitats. th e sam e held true of virtually alt the coastal stream s. Even the most seasoned an g lers were entirely baffled as to Just where the big sea-going rainbows had taken off to. They still remain baffled concerning their whereabouts. Not only are the fishermen completely mystified concern ing the disappearance of the ste e lle s, but both the Game Commission an d the Fish Commission find them selves stumped to the extent of falling to come up with a solution to the perplexing problem that has steelheaders agog throughout the state.

Not all the traffic was south bound to East Africa. Within the las» three weeks six Italian Transports have gone north through the canal carrying over 9,000 victims of malaria, dysen tery and typhoid from the great adven ture to a country unbeknow” to Italian Soldiers. Lee M. Sauers, President of the Port Orford Townsend Club, has often been asked the question; "Would not the adoption of .the Townsend pension plan destroy, or tend to lessen the human desire to save?” Or, In other words, put aside a certain percentage of our sal aries, wages or Incomes to provide for the comforts of life In our declining years? Mr. Sauers, in answer to this ques tion, points out the ( s e t th a t th e aver Mr. Glen (Stan) Black, proprietor of a barber shop here In Port Orford, left unexpectedly Jast Friday night, October 4, with Deputy Sheriff, Ted Flnucane, only ten minutes behind at the California line. Black, who several weeks' ago came to Port Orford with his wife and fami ly, rented the Barber Shop location from Mrs. Marlon Kusba, installed equipment, hired Mr. George Steven son as barber and opened for business; two weeks later Black offered the busi ness for sale, due to his lack of knowledge In the business and feeling he would be unable to pass the State Barber examination. Without notice, Black left Port Or ford last week, Friday evening, October 4, leaving obligations outstanding and unsettled. Prior to this, Black offered his household equipment to Dr. Rockwell and wife, owing to the fact that he, Black, was unable to advertise same for sale, also that he was at a loss to mention his loss in the business, would leave Sunday, October 6. , The following day, Black majje an offer to Snider of the purchase of chairs, table, cot, stove, hotwater tank and linoleum. Snider gave Black. In payment, »20 for the purchase of said Inman Mines Again in Court Last week suit was filed by J. C. Johnson, attorney at Gold Beach: Mrs. C. C. Inman Vs. Gilbert E. Gable? It has been asked in the suit that the Inman Mines now known as Gable’s Camp, be placed into the hands of a re ceiver, awaiting the outcome of court action. Port Orford Women Organize Association Papers have already been served on Mr. and Mrs. Oable, who will give their reply within the ten days granted them. o if] x x ■ The complaint was sent to J. C. Johnson at Gold Beach, by A. C. Hough of Orants Pass, attorney repre senting Mrs. Inman in the case, who claims a settlement of »2,000.00 due her from Oable, who at the time, 1931, was Trustee of the Inman Mines. An attachment against the Inman Mines by Bill White, owner of the Western Hotel, Port Orford, forced Trustee Oable to immediately raise approxi mately an additional ♦3,000.00. Mrs. Inman along v^lth other eastern ln- vesters, turned over to Inman and Mr. Oable the »3,000.00 plus, releasing the attachment. In doing this Mr. Inman gave Mr. Oable a mortgage on the mlpes. . • At the time the mprtgage fell due, Mr. Oable foreclosed, adyertlsed and bid the mines in with proper proceed ings; later Mr. Oable organized the Oregon Engineering Corporation transferring the mines over to this new company.
