THE EUGENE GUARD
DISTRIBUTION HELD
AS PLAN IMFUTURE
Chanel f pollry in the planting of
trout fry by the siatn gome coinmiii-
iun are cnntrmplatui in order that
the fUli may be Mil longer at the
batrberiea until larger before being
distributed to the utreanw of the
stale, according to Hen V, 1'orrls,
member of the commission.
"At prenent the trout are distribut
ed when about one and one-hnlf to
three Inches In length but it has
. been found that the loss is great ond
that many of these small fish are de
stroyed. It Is believed that it would
be better to hold Uie trout until they
grow to threo to five inches." Mr.
Porris said.
The commissioner pointed out that
this would necessitate moro ponds
and also a heavier outlay for trans
portation. The McKoiwie' hatchery at
the present time, under the present
policy of distribution, iB carrying n
capacity load and if the trout are held
longer that more heading ponds would
be required. The transportation costs
would increase owing " the fact thai
only onc-fiftii Fiie uuinDer of the lar
ger fish could be contained in the cans
now in use, he said. '
'The egg-taking for the hatcueriea
Is limited by nature and we must
tnko steps to aare as many as pos
sible of the trout fry. Thia protection
would be had by holding at the hat
cheries and in this wny o much great
er number of the fish irould reach
maturity," tJie commissioner explain
ed, . Under the. present system the fry
are distributed about the motile of
the Rummer. The proposed plan
would be to retnln tho trout in the
ponds over tho winter and stnrt dis
tribution ns soon as the roads were
in condition early in the spring.
. Legislation concerning the state
fish and game administration which is
now pending would somewhat curtail
this proposed plan of Increasing tho
number of ponds and also the exteu
aion of the transportation method aa
funds for this purpose now at the dis
posnl of the sommisslon would have
to be obtained through appropriations
of the legislature.

With tho thought that the elder
members of the average family should
bo given un opportunity to see an ex
ceptional picture, A. II. McDonald of
tho Ilex thentftr has invited all per
sons over sixty years of ago to be
guests of t lie theater to sec 'any
showing of Colleen Mooro in "So
Big free of charge.
"Ho Big," In the opinion of Mr. Mc
Donald, is ono of theao pictures
winch havo such uuusual . entertain
ment qunlitios they merit special at
tention. The play is sn adaptation of
me famous J-.ilna Ferber novel, with
an exceptional cast supporting the de
lightful Colleen Moore, and produced
in a style that provides a genuine
treat for every member of tho fnmily
from the youngest to the oldest,
says the Hex managing director.
In asking tho old folks aa guests,
Mr. McDonald urges them to attend
either the matinee showing today or
v riday, ainco extraordinary, crowds
are expected and by so planning their
nrrival at the theater it will b-.i pos
sible to seat them without delay.
J lie ufroring of the ilcilig theater is
'Captain Blood," one of the best 8ca
pictures ever shown in Eugene, In
miiny waya it excels the famous "Sea
Hawk," and it is certain that tho
themo la pleasant and the uctlng of
unusual merit.
J. Warren Kerrigan does his role to
perfection, taking the part of Peter
Blood, the hero of tho thrilling talo
of the sea, His acting is versatile, and
tho tliomo Is well worked out.
Taken all In all, the picture can be
rocom mended ns decidedly pleasing
and thrilling as well. Beauty is iptcr
spersed, mid graudeur of some of
the sceiiea of the sen, with the big
soiling vcshoIh nt war is deserving
of high mention.
The film certainly created a hit
with Hcilig patrons Thursday evening
and bids fair to play to packed houses
for the remainder of the week.
At the Castle is Hebe Daulels in

the Eugene chamber of commerce is
the statement of officials of both or
ganizations. Many vocalists who have
displayed interest in both organiza

ity to belong to two separate groups,
both with aimilar aims.
"TJiero is no conflict of aim of the
two organizations and membership in
both would be of advantage as the
practice would be valuable. Meetings
will bo arranged In order that there
will be no two scheduled for the same
time, thus giving an opportunity for
those who desire to give their sup
port to both BocieeieB," said Hugh
Winder, chairman of tho chamber of
commerce committee.
George II. MeMorrnn,- president,
and John Stark Evans, director, of
the Oratorio society slso stressed the
point that it was the desiro of both
organizations to work in harmony to
ward tiie same ends encouragement
of music atudy and to provide a
meana of expression for those who
otherwise might not have tho oppor
tunity. "The oratorio plan is a civic
movement and we have hopes thnt it
will grow in membership and attract
the best musicians of tiie city to its
ranks, Mr. McMorran stated.
