CHAPTER NEWS
SALEM CHAPTER No. 1
During August and September 26
new members have been taken into the
Salem Chapter. This gives us a total to
date of 190 members, most of whom
are paid up and in good standing.
Roy Boldt’s oiling crew have finish­
ed their season’s run and most of the
regulars are either vacationing or have
returned to their regular jobs. Harry
Melton is next on the list to wind up
his oiling.
Jerry Farrar, Chet Paulsen and a
couple of other characters went to As­
toria during the late lamented sport
season for Columbia River salmon. It
occurred to one of the boys, after a
little quick figuring, that their possi­
ble catch would run into several hun­
dred pounds. So they took a trailer
(1-ton capacity) to bring all those fish
home, and what do you think. No you
almost guessed it, but the other char­
acters did catch a fish apiece but boy
did that trailer look empty. Chet and
Jerry got a beautiful sunburn for their
trouble.
It is with deep regret that we an­
nounce the recent deaths of two of our
members— Stephen Ingham and L. M.
Nickerson. The Chapter expresses its
sympathy to the families of these two
men.

I’m going hunting now— so long
everybody!
(Editor’s note: It is interesting to
see how our correspondent from Salem
failed to note the names of the other
members of the above mentioned fish­
ing trip. As a matter of fact our corre­
spondent, Mr. Webb Ross, happened to
be a member of the party and the trail­
er belonged to him.—N uff said.)
ROSEBURG CHAPTER No. 2
Meetings are held regularly and all
members are well pleased with the ac­
tivities of the association in general.
Plans and nominations for candi­
dates to fill the office of District Di­
rector are under way for the forth­
coming election.
This chapter is considering a plan to
hold its meetings alternately at the
different headquarters of its members
until the present gasoline rationing is
over, as many of our members find it
impossible to attend the meetings regu­
larly. It is our hops that we will have
a greater attendance, more activity and
more news when the war is over.
BEND CHAPTER No. 3
Bend Chapter was honored at our
August meeting by a host of out of
town visitors, including A. J. Ford,
State President; Forrest Stewart, Ex­
ecutive Secretary; I. A. DeFrance, Sec­
retary-Treasurer; Herman Kherli, Ex­
ecutive Secretary of the League of Ore­
gon Cities; Eddie Clymer, Editor of the
Oregon State Employee and Public Re­
lations Director; Floyd Query, Chair-
