Rogue River is getting so awful
low at thia time of the year that I
am beginning to wonder how low
will it be when August rolls around.
And I wonder how much damage it
will do to the fish life because it is a
recognized fact tixat when the water
gets too warm, thousands of fish will
die. Then that is where I wonder
what kind of fishing will we have
next year? This year it has been a
very poor fishing outlook up to now
though lately It has improved and I
hope may continue to do so.

There are thousands of salmon
lying behind the Gold Ray dam un
able to go over the dam because of
the low water and right now I wish
there is some kind of a scheme that
we could catch practically all of them
and put them above the dam with
out serious harm to the salmon eo
that they may continue on to their
spawning holes.
—0—
To have a big hoist over the edge
of the dam, right in the middle, then
use a big salmon net and catch all the
salmon and bring both ends of the
net together to be hooked on the
hoist and pull the entire load and net
up to above the dam and release
them promptly. Though the entire
idea Is crazy on my part but who
knows it might help some to get more
salmon above the dam.

it is too bad that Copco did not
start the construction of a new lad
der last summer because it looks like
to me that there are considerably
more salmon this year than last year.
Our softball team certainly had a
merry time last Friday when they
crushed Gasco 19 to 6 with 2 home
runs by Lee Pinkham who pitched a
good game by allowing Gasco six
hits.
Entire players on Faber’s
team played fine ball and I believe
that they have hit their stride at
last.
WRESTLING NEWS
After dropping the first fall to his
clever opponent,
Portland's Ernie
Plluso came from behind to grab two
tumbles and defeat Don Sugal of
Salem in last Monday's main event
wrestling match in the Medford
armory.
A series of painful and potent ham
merlocks gave Piluso the victory. Ilia
first fall came six minutes after the
rest period and he wound up the
spectacular and scientific bout in one
minute and 20 seconds of the third
heat.
Jimmy Mitchell, alias the Black
Panther, scored a two fall to ono
victory over Frankie Clemens in the
middle event, and like Piluso he w is
forced to take two tumbles after los
ing the first.
In the opener Prince Selaki Mehall-
kis whipped Canadian Herbie Parks
in two straight falls.
