Public Interest . In Conservation, Waltonian Plea A plea for the public to be come more conservation-minded and protect fish in streams and lakes for future generations was voiced by Henry DeVoss in an address Tuesday at the Medford Rotary club meeting. . DeVoss, president of the local Isaac Walton league, speaking at a luncheon meeting at the Jackson hotel, cited the spring chinook salmon and summer steelhead in Rogue river as the number-one game fish of the west. They are diminishing in number, he warned, and steps should be taken to preserve those that remain. The Rogue is known as one of the world's great sporting streams from the days of 1860, DeVoss told Rotarians. Zane Grey and other famous nimrods have spread the fame of this river. The effect of dredging and establishment of dams without adequate provision of the pas sage of fish have damaged the fishing, he said. Starting with a 12-foot power dam in 1890, followed by con struction of Gold Ray dam in 1890, a structure below Savage Rapids in 1905 and the Savage Rapids dam in 1921 provided al most insurmountable - hazards for fish, he said. Now screens and ladders are installed, and the Isaak Walton league - has successfully worked for a fund for turbine screening. Improved lake fishing in southern Oregon is following the program of clearing trash fish in Lake of the Woods and Diamond lake, Devoss reported. EjVoss was . introduced by Rotary program chairman Em mett Bullard.
