(International Soundphoto) ILLINOIS VALLEY Seek Site For Fish Pond By HELEN BOTTEL Cave Junction William J McLean has been named as chairman of a committee to find suitable sites in the valley for a warm water fish pond. Discussion of such a pond was conducted at a recent meeting of the Illinois Valley chamber of commerce. It was pointed out the State Game Commission has offered to take over the stock ing problems. Blue gill and bass would be most practical and less costly, and would require only a dam across a small stream in an accessible place, where the fish would not escape into local rivers during high water. It is believed a warm water O fishing lake with boating facili ties, would attract many tourists to this area. Another possibility for fish ponds here is indicated by the Oregon Game Commission, who has asked the Chamber for sug gestions on winter steelhead rearing ponds. Mr. and Mr. Everett K.
