PAGE EIGHT
Rod and Gun Club Doings—
The Ramrods basketball team
took Bay City Market into camp
last week to the tune of 44 to 22.
This explains the grin that Whi
te’ Mattson has been wearing
lately. The first home game for
th* Ramrods will be tonight, Jan.
20. at the high school gym, when
they will face Smith River.
So many are expecting our
local lioys to take the league
championship that a big turn-
out of spectators is anticipated
for this first of their home con-
tests.
At the last regular meeting of
Chetco Rod and Gun club there
were nine committees appointed.
Many of these are already func-
licning and arc getting the new
program off to a flying start. A
separate list of these committees
will be mailed to each member
so that complete co-ordination
may result; for it is only with
such team-work that accomplish
ment may be achieved for such
a program as has been set up

Enthusiasm is running high,
however, that many members
have voluntarily offered their
services to many committees al
ready appointed. It is this indom
itable spirit that has put these
Rod and Gunners on the map and
made their organization what it
is today.
Fishing Gossip—
Due to the long period of dry
weather, the streams are very
low. The water is not too far
above summer level and is very
clear. Eor this reason fewer steel-
head are being taken. We still :
have about six weeks before the
season closes, however, so there i
is plenty

Hershel Obye, supervisor of the
Siskiyou National Forest, with
headquarters at Grants Pass, was
principal speaker Tuesday noon
at the Rotary club, telling of the
importance of "Conservation."
Prefacing his remarks, Mr.
Obye reminded Rotarians that all
westerners had long revolted at
the idea that conservation was at
all necessary'. "However, the in
flux of new settlers in the west,
sufficient to say that a population
shift is definitely in this direction
makes us see the need of con
servation."
Where the west once saw only-
scattered population, with plenty
of land for each person and fam
ily, there was no need for any
type of conservation. However,
especially since the war, the en
tire* west has seen a definite pop
ulation gain, and the old belief
must change too.
Mr. Oby-e pointed out the im
portance of the so-called water
sheds, and the control of mois
ture. Denuded land gives rise to
quick run-offs of water, and with
this run-off the depletion of the
topsoil, which is vital in the well
being of the world today.
Fish and game conservation is
another result of the wanton de-
truction of our forefathers, who
looked upon the supply of all re-
ources as inexhaustible. In the
past game has been slaughtered j
fish stocks so depleted that w-e
now must put stringent limits on
sportsmen, and yet the outlook
coos not appear bright.
Now, after the point ef food
/applies are almost diminished
beyond repair, we attempt to re
stock game, and the streams wit^h
9sh. This problem is growing by
the hour, the speaker pointed out
and described the forest scO*
ice’s attempt to aid the situatici.
In closing his talk. Mr. Obye
explained the forest service’s idea
of "sustained yield’’ in the Na
tional Forests. It is the plan of
the department to keep the tim
ber industry going forever, by
regulation of the disposal and
the replanting.
