Hearing on ISilD To Outlaw FdsDh ieirboes iraws r: Big Crowd IE Derby Sponsors Challenge Claim Of Destruction By BILL FORCE United Press Correspondent Salem U.R) An attempt , to outlaw the big business of fish derbies in Oregon attracted a capacity crowd to a statehouse hearing room here last night, in cluding members of the fisher ies committees of the Washing ton Legislature. Spokesmen from half a dozen Oregon communities which each year sponsor well-patronized fish contests known as derbies appeared before the House Fish and Game Committee to oppose a bill that would outlaw such competition as destructive of fish. Proponents Challenged They challenged proponents of the measure to prove that derbies had any effect on fish resources and they contended the number of fish taken in the contests was insignificant in comparison with the numbers of the same species of fish taken by . the ton by commercial fisher men. Rep. Robert Elfstrom (R- Salem), who sponsored the bill along with Rep. John Amacher (R-Roseburg), said the measure was a conservation move to re lieve the mounting pressure on available fish supplies. He said the numbers of fishermen were increasing annually without the added incentive of competition end prizes. His position was supported officially by both the state fish and game commis sions. Would Support Bill Geprge Fulton-of the . Astoria Regatta Association, sponsor of the famed Astoria salmon derby, declared his organization would support the bill if it were not made effective until a similar prohibition was passed by the state of Washington. A ban in Oregon would be meaningless on the Columbia, he said, unless 1 Washington derbies were also stopped. C. B. McCorkle of the Port land Fishing and Hunting News told the committee that if there was any real danger to conser vation of fish resources, the fish and game commissions would have shortened fishing seasons and reduced limits. On the con trary," he said, limits of steel head and salmon actually had been increased. Washington visitors gave no indication what move Washing ton.. might make regarding derbies but promised close co operation. Vrv Daily Weather Report ; 7 . FORECASTS , ..''

K. C. Jones, special assistant to the UAL .president, met Wednesday with Klamath Falls city and chamber of commerce officials to outline his firm's plans. Jones said the traffic available at Klamath Falls is not sufficient to economically sustain two airlines and there fore the company will apply to the CAB for elimination of Klamath Falls from its certifi cate of convenience and neces sity. Jones declared that an im portant factor in UAL's decision to request elimination of the Klamath Falls stop , was denial by the CAB of United's request to operate over a route between Klamath Falls and Medford. The route was given to West Coast Airlines and United planes do not operate between the two cities. He added that, in United's opinion, if West Coast were al lowed to become the sole car rier of traffic at Klamath Falls, it could result in greater fre quency of service on more economical operation by the local service carrier. United will present, simul taneously with its request for withdrawal from Klamath Falls, a motion to consolidate that re quest for hearing with the cur rent West Coast Airlines re newal case, already before the CAB. Both the city of Klamath West Coast for renewal on a permanent or further tempor ary basis of its certificate of public convenience and neces sity. " If West Coast's . request is granted, it will continue traffic between Medford and Klamath Falls. Some arrangements would be made for service between Klamath Falls and Bend, Red mond and Portland, and it is also expected that an attempt will be made by Klamath Falls city officials to bring South West Airlines to Klamath Falls for traffic between that city and California points.
