WaKonians Approve ay IO)am;
dDppose Blaiitelt GDeer Season
Medford&iTribuni
A John Day Dam on the
Columbia river was approved
and a blanket either sax deer
season in eastern Oregon was
opposed yesterday by directors
of the Oregon division of the
Izaak Walton League of Ameri
ca in resolutions passed at their
quarterly conference at the
Jackson hotel here.
They also voted to stand be
hind Division President Dan P.
Allen, Eugene, for taking U. S.
Senator Richard Neuberger to
task ,for his "inconstistency" in
supporting appropriations for a
start of Ice Harbor dam on the
lower Snake river.
Any appropriation for expan
sion of a guided missile range at
Ft. Sill, Okla.,' which will cut
Into the Wichita wildlife reser
vation was also opposed by the
directors.
Some 20 state officers and di
rectors gave unanimous support
to the John Day proposal on the
basis that power is needed and
that such a dam will alleviate
necessity of dams on other
streams which have sports and
recreational values.
Deer Season
'The either sex deer season
resolution passed by t a scant
majority of one vote. Those sup
porting the issue said they doubt
ed the advisability of a blanket
order for an area as large as
the eastern portion of the state
involved. The deer proposal was
set up in tentative hunting regu
lations made by the State Game
commission.
The John Day resolution will
go to the Oregon congressional
delegation and to federal and
state agencies concerned and the
Ft. Sill stand will be presented
to the House appropriations com
mittee. The deer matter will be
taken before the Game commis
sion.
Senator Neuberger in a news
release from Washington, D. C,
last week declared that a letter
from Allen was "abusive." The
letter matter came up at morn
ing discussion at which the Izaak
Waltonian opposition to Ice
Harbor was reiterated. Allen
said that his missive, making
clear the position of the league
on dams in the Columbia basin,
was not intended to be abusive
when he wrote it. Directors pas
sed a motion expressing confi
dence in their president.
Waltonians oppose Ice Harbor
and three other dams proposed
on the lower Snake river be
cause they .feel that they are not
justified economically and may
destroy the fishing industry.
Dr. David B. Charlton, Port
land, principal participant in the
morning discussion of dam is
sues, pointed, on the other hand,
to the previously mentioned rea
sons for support of a John Day
project, no matter who builds it.
"The John Day dam will have
to be built and we might just as
well like it," the IWL national
executive board member told di
retcors. Not Against Dams
Charlton declared that Wal
tonians are not against all dams,
as is sometimes represented. He
remarked that Ice Harbor oppo
sition "is not just a fisherman's
screwy attitude" and said that
there are others, including state
officials, businessmen and news
papermen, who feel that the low
er Snake dam proposals are like
ly to be more harm than good.
It's never been possible to
maintain a significant run of sal
mon over a dam 100 feet high,
Dr. Charlton stated. Losses suf
fered in salmon would be signifi
cant if four lower Snake dams
are built, he maintained, adding
the opinion that chances in get
ting a run over the dams practi
cally would be nil. It is felt, he
said, that other dams could be
built up the river first.
Red Hat Day
The directors also heard re
ports from sponsors of the new
Save Oregon's Salmon initiative
and on plans for Red Hat day in
Oregdfa on Sept. 23. Committee
men spoke on wildilfe, anti
litterbug, conservation education
and membership projeets of the
division.
The National Park service re
port on recreational resources in
the Rogue river basin was also
brought to attention of directors.
This study was compiled in con
nection with the Bureau of Rec
lamation's plan for development
of water resources of the basin.
It is indicated that the bureau
plan is no longer under consid
eration of the Department of
Interior.
L. L. Simpson was speaker last
night at the dinner which wound
up yesterday's day-long meeting.
Visiting Waltonians were guests
at an outdoormen's breakfast at
TouVelle park this morning.
Save Oregon's baimon pre
sentation was made by Howard
Hadley, Albany, state chairman
of SOS, Inc., and Bob Urban,
Corvallis, SOS secretary.
Nets. Seines Unlawful
- The proposed initiative, re
written since its defeat by voters
in 1954, would make it unlawful
to take, catch, or fish for salmon
or steelhead with nets, seines or
any other method except with
hook and line in waters of any
stream or river which empties
into the Pacific ocean in Oregon
south of the mouth of the Col
umbia river.
- Constitutionality of the rriea
sure was an issue in the 1954
election. Latest draft of the bill
is being passed through channels
of state agencies in effort to
stop this argument. The proposed
measure has been sent around
the state to interested parties for
their comment and approval, the
chairman reported.
Hadley termed the SOS prop
osition a good one but admitted
that it was poorly worded when
previously presented to the vo
ters. Since defeat of the measure,
"influential people" have ap
proached him agreeing . that
small commercial streams must
be closed to commercial netting,
Hadley stated. He said that these
people feel that taking nets out
of streams will be of actual fi
nancial benefit to Oregon, that
property values will increase in
areas involved and that there
will not be enough facilities to
, take care of sports fishermen.
Salmon Runs
Figures presented by Urban
brought out that less than one
third as many salmon were
caught in the affected streams in
1952 as were caught 15 years
before. He listed an annual aver
age catch of 3,719,995 pounds in
1935-1939 compared to 1,233,434
in 1952. Catches for only Sep
tember, October and November
were considered.
Urban mentioned also the de
clines on the Rogue and Umpqua
rivers before commercial fish
ing was halted. He cited the im
provement in the Umpqua, say
ing it is a proven fact salmon
runs have come back in 10 years.
The SOS secretary questioned
whether a 48-hour closures per
week and the fish commission's
nuota svstem means much in
keeDine salmon runs in the riv
ers. He pointed to natural
spawning as the apparent an
swer in maintaining and increas
ing the salmon runs and indica
ted propagation of salmon in
hatcheries as "nothing more
than supplemental."
Promote Sportsmanship
L. C. (Jack) Binford, Portland
Waltonian in outlining the Red
Hat Day project, said that people
working with the plan are con
vinced that it is the answer to
public relations between the
sportsmen and others. Binford
is chairman of Governor Patter
son's committee for Red Hat day.
He mentioned the nationwide
attention, including entry in the
Congressional Record, of the pro
ject which germinated in the
Portland IWL chapter as a gim
mick to promote better sports
manship practices. '
Hunters will have the oppor
tunity to sign pledges and will
receive buttons. In the pledge
they will vow "to be law abid
ing, to respect the rights and
property of others and to be
careful with fire and firearms."
Others here for the committee
meeting included William W.
Huber, Portland, membership
chairman of the divission; Wil
liam Niskanen, Bend, wildlife
chairman and national board
member; Karl Onthank, Eugene,
secretary of the division, and
Leighton Whitsett, Salem, treasurer.

Change-up And Curve Result
In Better Hurling For Buhl
By RUSS GREE
Philadelphia U.R) A
change-up which became a
money pitch and a curve ball
that rippled through the strike
zone are Bob Buhl's two big
reasons for his change-about sea
son with the Milwaukee Braves.
The tweet slinging righthand
er has a 7-7 record for the sea
son, not gaudy, but a vivid con
trast to his 2-7 record of a year
ago.
But Buhl, whose season has
been highlighted by a nine
strikeout shutout over Brook
lyn, and 12 strikeouts in one
game against the Philadelphia
Phillies, is satisfied. His 12
strikeouts against the Phils is
the Braves best single same
,mark, and his 74 strikeout tr
tal is topped only by Gene
Conley. .
Primarily a fast bailer, Buhl
is giving his change-up the big
billing in his rejuvention, and
has the added comfort that he
also is getting his curve ball
over. Add these to his live fast
one, and he's well equipped.
"The ' change-up is the big
pitch," Buhl chuckled. "I threw
it seven or eight times against
the Phils and it got me out of a
jam every time.
"On top of that, thefe were
a couple of times I got behind,
and I went for the curve. It
zipped in, and believe me, you
feel a lot better when you can
call on it"
Buhl admits his pitching Im
proved this year as a result of
his lay-off from winter balL Two
seasons back, he had a 13-8 rec
ord and then last year plummet'
ed to a mere two victories.
