arEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 2. 1938. PAGE NINE FOR UPPER ROGUE TALKEDAT MEET Chamber Directors and Re sort Owners Gather at Prospect Gates Urges New Advertising Angle Directors of the Jackson County Chamber of Commerce met at Orleve'a resort at Prospect Thursday noon, and in an open air meeting un der the trees, discussed with upper , Rogue river resort owners the prob lem of how to Increase tourist travel over the Crater Lake highway. Fifty persons were present. Earl Ulrlch of Prospect was the host director. Eu gene Thorn dike, president of the chamber of commerce acted as chair man. Need of advertising different from that used by other sections In adver tising the area's rweatlonal points, and cooperation between resort own ers, and the Jackson county Cham ber of Commerce, was urged by W. A. Oates, MM lord, main speaker of the oocaslon. All Use Same Language It was pointed out by Mr, Gates, that practically every section "west of the crest of the Rockies uses the same language in describing the country, and sets forth no new van tage points. The speaker declared there were many admirable points which could be stressed, and new apots and pleasures created for tour ists In this section. The Joys of a middle western tourist sleeping in the upper river section, far from the heat of his homev lulled by the song of the Rorrue, and the sigh of the wind In th pines, was named as the unsung glory of the section. After a tourist has driven 1,500 miles by auto, he Is In a mood for new things, the speaker said, and the problem Is to find amusements that will cause the tourist to linger longer. He suggested a comprehensive fishing map. The co-operation of the cham ber of commerce was secured. Competition Keen O. M. Hurd, chairman of a tourist otnmlttee read a special report, ahowlng competition was keen these days, and the need of meeting It was necessary. Al Ollhousen, j-rletor or the Rogue River resort near rrall, said most of the tourist business this Tear had been "repeat business," or people who had been here before, and there was comparatively little new business. He said he hired a fishing guide, who proved to tourists there were fl&h In Rogue river. He said he bad found a guide practical, and oaused the tourists to linger. Other speakers suggested the use Of pack trains to take tourists to out of the way spots in the high hills away from the beaten path. K. C. Obye of the forest service, said the Skyline Trail trip, one of the best oenlo Journeys, was comparatively unknown and had few visitors. He thought It might be developed as a horseback trip. He further stated the forest service was doing what It could to Increase tourist travel. O. Axtel informed the gathering he was establishing a pack train string, and was prepared to take tourists to points In the forests. He said by next year he would have regular trips of two three, or four days, or as long m the guests wanted to stay. Need More Effort O. H. Gunther of Portland, publish er of the "Adventures in Oregon" booklet, stressed the need of Oregon resort owners taking steps to gain more of the tourist trade. It was admitted, this year had been poor season on the Crater Lake highway, and some of the decline was attributed to the wide publicity giv en forest fires which raged over the northwest In July and early August. One resort owned said travel nad fallen off as the news spread, and that tourists feared they would be drafted for flreflghtlng service. As a result of the session tt was decided, the upper Rogue tourist ca terers, appoint one of their number, to meet with the chamber of com merce soon and work out a program for next year, and for this season, if possible. A mixed, quartet, under direction of Mrs. Elsie Carlton Strang, and composed of the Misses Mary Ann Gates and Margaret Luman, and the Ateverson brothers, rendered four pleasing numbers during the meal. A vote of praise was given Mrs. Mary Grieve for the excellence of the fried chicken, and accessories. Killed On Highway WOODBURN. Sept. 2.
