and to explain the new projects.
To Remove ftnags.
The old burn, unsightly and haz
ardous, which covers about a square
mile at the head of Ditch creek, will
have lta snags painlessly removed.
The snags have heen a breeding place
for forest fires. A horse trail will

Pleasant creek to the head of Ditch
creek providing easy access to a huge
triangle of heavllly wooded country.
The guard house to be completed
thla summer will be on Ditch creek
at the junction of the King Mountain-Jack
creek roads. A guard will
be stationed there from four to sIk
months during the summer to see
that tourists and campers have per
mits and are properly informed about
fire regulations. Fortunate will be
the guard assigned to this location,
which Is rich In natural beauty.
A guard station will also be built
at the Junction of Jack creek and
Jump Off Joe creek at the present
site of Jack creek side camp: an
other near the top of Battle Moun
tain and the fourth at roley Gulch
on Coyote creek one mile east of
Wolf Creek (Pacific highway.)
Houses will be plsced at each of these
four points where guarda may live
through the summer with their fam
lllea. New Tower Planned.
Battle Mountain lookout station's
observation tower, now a "bird
house" attached to the tops of two
fir trees will be replaced by a first
class tower, stronger and safer. Sur
veyor Lou Amort la now busy laying
out a road to the summit of Battle
Mountain so that lookout men may
drive to the very foot of the new

will prohsbly be the first of the new
truck trails to be completed.

Elk Number 120,000
As to western game animals such
aa buffalo, elk and antelope, the

more numerous. Its estimates now
are that there are In this country
4700 buffalo, 65,000 antelope and
120.000 elk.

to what they were 60 years ayo

Others are turned over to Indian

Similarly elk numbers are reduced

BY KiWANIS CLUB
BEFORE DEPARTING
In honor of Klwantan Darwin K.
Burgher, Medford high school coach
who ts leaving soon to assume new
duties as coach at Boise, Idaho, high
school, the Klwanis club met yester
day at Hotel Medford with C. C. Lem
mon In charge of the farewell pro
gram. The entire meeting was devoted to
Coach Burgher's work In Medford
and proved very Interesting to the
large attendance of club members,
both from a standpoint of the fun
that waa poked at good-natured
"Burg," and In seriously reviewing
the Impressive basketball and foot
ball records he leaves.
The program began with a song.
"How Do You Do Mr. Burgher, How
Do You Do," from the entire mem
bership, and also Included a numbei
by the quartet, I Love You Truly."
Toastmaster Lemmon produced sev
eral childhood pictures of the coach,
much to the latter'a consternation,
that produced mirth on all sides.
Kiwanian W. J. Warner, having re
cently made a trip Into Idaho, Coach
Burgher's former stamping ground,
stated that In looking over the rec
ord at University of Idaho, he found
that Burgher was quite a card shark.
Mysteriously, Max Pelrce went over
to the coach and pulled a pack of
cards and a quantity of poker chips
from his pocket, amid much laugh
ter. After an elaborately wrapped gift
package was carelessly dropped and
shattered, only to find that It was
nothing but a "fake" in the form of
a couple of cheap tumblers, Coach
Burgher waa presented a beautiful
fountain pen as a token from the
club.
Rum Brown, former Tiger football
and basketball star, spoke In behalf
of those who played under Coach
Burgher, expressing their apprecia
tion for his splendid work at senior
high school, and telling of their deep
regret at his departure. Brown also
described a few personal sidelights of
some of the trips made by the foot
ball and basketball teams.
Coach Burgher's record waa review
ed, showing that In five years of
basketball, 73 gamea were won and
20 lost out of a total of 103. In five
years of football, 37 games were won,
three tied and five lost out of a tocal
of 45. At University of Idaho, Burgh
er was All-Coast forward for three
years In basketball, All-Northwest
end for three years In football, presi
dent of Beta Theta PI, president of
the Associated Students and presi
dent of his graduating class.

has given the teams during his coacn
