Med: srPdDmir Unscreened Turbines Seen Possible Chief Factor in Rogue Fish Run Decline Unscreened turbines ' may be the No." 1 factor of decline in fish runs on Rogue river, Cole Rivers, Oregon State Game Com mission biologist, told members of the Jackson County chapter of the Izaak Walton league Mon day night. Rivers, who listed catch, floods and disease as other fac tors affecting fresh runs, gave information on fish mortality and damage at Savage Rapids dam. Waltonians seek installa tion of screens at the site to pre vent downstream migrating fish from injury or destruction in the turbines used in pumping water into Grants Pass Irrigation dist rict ditches. Chapter President Norton Smith listed the screening as one of the main objectives of his administration this year. Con struction at the dam has left place for the four screens which reportedly will be required but a special Congressional appro priation is necessary to provide for installation. Get McKay To Ask Smith told chapter members at the meeting at Jackson hotel and the Game Commission that the matter is now in the hands of. Secretary of. the Interior Douglas McKay, whom, he said, is familiar and in sympathy with it. The main job, Smith de clared, is to get McKay to ask for the money from Congress and then to appeal to Congress. The president reported that Grants Pass Irrigation district officers are in favor of the screening but cannot afford to finance the installation. He said also it is hoped to get the sup port of Ashland, Grants Pass and Jackson County Chambers of Commerce. A resolution advo cating the screening was passed at the state convention of the IWL last month. Rivers gave figures from in tensive study in 1947, 1948 and 1949 on the north side diversion at Savage Rapids which employs pumping system to take water into the ditches. From plottings taken from "good samples" it was figured that 210,000 fish were pumped into the two high- line ditches in a season. Because RICA'S FINEST STRAIGHT Vffii66etf oSto OlSTlLUfKS JgANADi of other information since learned, the figure must be re garded "very conservative," Ri vers said. Later tests, he brought out, showed 38 per cent of the fish brought into the ditches were damaged in the process. A sampling indicated 25,000 fish mutilated out of those going through the tailrace back into the river. $244,000 Loss The biologist, from informa tion on the years tested, listed $244,000 loss per year from the economy of the valley from fish damage. Rivers pointed to a material decline in the past 25 years in the fish runs of the Rogue. But he said that one should not get too alarmed concerning the river. Others have declined, also, he said, and a picture of the development of civilization can be seen. By study certain factors can be correlated from the various streams concerning fish runs. Catch on the Rogue river is being controlled, the biologist mentioned. Bag limits are the protection. Floods have affected salmon particularly with eggs deposited being flooded and washed from the gravel. How ever, Rivers said, gigantic pro gress is being made in watershed protection. Logged areas are go ing back into cover which holds the water. Picture on disease is just now being gotten, Rivers reported, and disease is not unique to Rogue river. The more that is found out about disease the more that can be planned for control, he pointed out. He re ported that most of the mortal ity this year appeared to be in the mouths of the cooler tribu taries where the fish appeared to "hole up." Pond Weed Harms Pond weed was given as a cause of fish losses last summer. It thrived because of the lack of a "scouring flood" and chok ing the river caused stagnant water. Lack of oxygen in the water was figured to have caused some fish deaths. Unscreened turbines at Ideal Cement company diversion near Gold Hill and at Gold Ray dam were mentioned. Rivers re ported an 8 per cent mortality rate among fish going through turbines at Gold Ray and 13 per cent at the other location. Rivers reported the spring Chinook salmon count at Gold Ray as 16,550, lowest in history. He said the summer steelhead was one-half the normal run and gave a Gold Ray count of 1,123. A lot of steelhead holed up at the mouths of cooler tributaries in the lower canyons; however, he stated. The biologist reported a good trout catch this year, saying the low water helped. Advantage To Crop Concerning the ease of catch ing trout at Fish lake in late sea son because of the low level of the water, Rivers remarked that it is to advantage to crop off the large fish under the stocking program. He said that the trash fish, roach, are coming back and said that treatment of the lake is being eyed and may 'be ac complished as soon as 1958. Charles Shepard, Game Com mission field man for the area, reporting on the hunting season in this locality, said that he be lieves the buck deer kill ex ceeded 1954 but that the total kill may be lower since the hunter's choice kill along Rogue river apparently was "not enough to do us any good." The game man said that hav ing the hunter's choice con trolled season in September proved not to be successful in harvesting the deer that feed on farmers crops and "kind of de feated our purpose." Shortly aft er the short controlled season ended, according to Shepard, he began to receive the usual dam age complaints. He reported three active cases presently in the Gold Hill area. One man re ported 52 deer on his seven acre property. A neighbor listed 28. A third man did not mind to deer browsing on his oats but objected to the trampling. Must Harvest Deer "There are just too many agri cultural deer and we'll have to harvest them," Shepard de clared. Shepard said that herd compo sition studies so far have shown a good ratio of bucks to does, 33 per hundred. He Indicated a ra tio of one buck per doe in the USE S1EADY- Phone 2-5336 or 2-5897 M. C.

Seattle Pacific lost its first game of the season to Pa cific Monday night. Butte Falls area which is heav ily poached. Poachers don't dis criminate between does and bucks. He called the situation unfortunate and said the area is hard to police because of the many roads in and out of the area. A good pheasant season next year was forecast by Shepard despite the larger bag limit this year. He said that roosters sur vived in good numbers, that the birds appear in fine shape and feed is good. "We have quail coming out our ears," he added. Chapter president Smith stated that another big objective of the local group this year is better sportsman-landowner relations. Phoenix HigK 85-50 Victor Phoenix Phoenix high turned the tables for a previous loss by thumping the Glendale basket ball team 85 to 50 here last night. In a previous contest Glendale used a pressing defense to come from behind and lick the Phoe nix club 51 to 49. This time the same tactics . worked to the Douglas county club's disad vantage. Phoenix, normally a set style club, took to fast breaking when Glendale ganging of the ball handler left other home club men unguarded. It meant a lot of easy baskets for the Pirates. Phoenix also did some good rebounding to help its cause with Ray Dahl and Bill Madden the big guns on the boards. The home club rolled up mar gins of 18 to 12, 34 to 18 and 58 to 37 at intermissions. Charles Wall scored 26 points, Jim Korth 22 and Madden 15. Berg had 18 for Glendale. Phoenix made 31 of 40 free shot tries. Phoenix goes to Rogue River Friday LINE-UPS: Phoenix 85 R.
