WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1962 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON 1 1 :' 5S; Regional Roundup : by Cleva Twitchell Mail Tribune Regional Ediior BIG TROPHY Earl Bliss of Prospect was one of Ihc lucky elk hunters returning from a week's hunting on Strawberry mountain in the John Day country. Bliss shot and killed his elk about three miles from where he and his three com panions (his father Voyed Bliss, brother David Bliss and brother-in-law Elmer Ogborn of Talent) had made camp. The antlers measure 54 inches at the widest point and each horn measures eight inches around at the base. One of the points had evidently been broken off while still in the velvet as it was healed over. The elk weighed 450 pounds dressed out.

The street is scheduled lo be paved. One of the commonest topics of conversation around the Tiller-Drew area these days is still the big slide. You will recall that the side of a medium-sized mountain about three miles northeast of Tiller began sliding down last February. The moving mountain of earth threatened a couple of homes for a while, but then slowed down before getting very near them. It also partially blocked off Dompicr creek and created a new small lake. We arc told that there is much speculation among residents of the area as to what effect the coming win ter will have on the slide. (Apparently the slide area got only about two inches of rain last week end while Medford was getting four, and the slide did not go tumbling down.) While revisiting the area a couple of weeks ago we visited with H. M. Lilligren, the district ranger in the South Umpqua P.angcr district, who indicated that there are about as many opinions on what will happen this winter as there are persons speculating. "Some think it won't move for 50 years. Others think it's very dangerous," he commented. "All I know is that I wouldn't sell life insurance to anyone up there and I wouldn't live up there myself." One thing we learned was that there has been a gradual slippage in the slide area all summer. Mr. Lil ligren told us of another ranger, John O. Wilson, who had taken month-by-month photos showing the gradual downward movement of the earth. Unfortunately he wasn't in. But just by looking at it ourselves and comparing what we saw with a mental image of how it appeared last February, we could believe that in deed it had moved quite a bit. There appears to be more bare rock exposed at the top of the slide, indicating that the sliding portion has slipped farther down. Also different is the fact that the lake formed at the bottom of the slide has doubled in size since last February, but that may have been due to other factors than further slippage of the moving earth. The gradual sliding this summer, coupled with the original movement, has altered the drainage pat terns in the area, Mr. Lilligren indicated to us. Some residents' water supply was cut off as their springs ufMi( rirv TICn l'1 nllipr grpa. tllpre are nnw springs whore there had been none before.

Before the side of the hill above started sliding down, this body of water was just a little creek. The leaning trees on the bank suggest how the earth has been piling up at this point.
