during a 1 3 1 a hour period, one ad

changed hands three times. At the

Pollution Problem In Klamath Lake
May Be Solved By Fish
By WALLACE MYERS
Wanted: A battling game fish
with a voracious appetite for blue
green algae.
This angler's delight should also
have a healthy liking for tempera
tures In the Upper Klamath Lake.
Such a fish could very well make
Uie big lake one of the world's
top resort and recreation meccas.
Upper Klamath Lake, with a 94
mile shoreline is the largest fresh
water lake west of Uie Rockies.
Few readers of this paper have to
be told that it Is one of the most
beautiful bodies of water In Uie
enure nation.
uui mere is one nig mult; an
over-abundance ol algae has the
lake water resembling something
asm to cneap restaurant soup. II

Thomas said the contract with Bob

signed yet, but the company was
notified to go ahead with Uie work.
Tho contract was held up while
the new firm obtained equipment
lo enlarge Its mixing plant.
Thomas said the work may take
about two months.
Street work Is late this year be
cause tho city went through the
procedure of calling for bids twice,
the first time getting Just one bid
for the repair work and the sec
ond time Just two.
Another big loo now underway
is the replacement of an old six-
inch steel casing water main run
ning along S. 6th from Main to
Walnut, being done by the Oregon
Water Corporation.
Tho old Dine in the block be
tween Main and Klamath was In
stalled in 1909 and In the next
block down in 1910.
It is being replaced, with 12-Inch

teeming with undulating algae
might give you an uncomfortable
urge to oop. If you'll pardon the
expression. Eating fish taken from
the lake In the summer usually
makes one long for a nice steak.
Strangers with a yen to swim take
one look and decide to go hiking.
And on Uiese warm days, persons
living and working near Uie lake
are wont to go about wrinkling
tneir ouenoed noses,
TERRIBLE
You may have the idea by this
time that algae are terrible pests.
Not so. The tiny blue-green marine
plants may be pesky in the Instance
ol Upper Klamath but they're not
undesirable pests; on the contrary,
algae is very necessary to healthy
lish and larger marine life. Big
trouble In Uie Upper Klamath Is
Uiat we have way yonder too much
of the stuff.
It Is of Uie utmost Importance
that nothing be done to hurt the
lake's fish and wildlife value. The
lake is a vital link in Uie Pacific
Flyway, the migratory route trav
eled by ducks, geese and other
fowl. Certainly, nothing must be
done Uiat would seriously disturb
tins natural pattern.
PROBLEM
The situation Is one of the tough
est problems confronting Klam
ath County Chamber ol Commerce.
Question is: how can Uie algae in
tlie lake be reduced to an inoffen
sive qunntity without harming fish
and wildlife?
In cooperation with state and fed
eral game experts and sportsmen,
the chamber has been wrestling
with the problem for several years
now. Chamber Mgr. Frank Tuck
er has accumulated voluminous
flies of correspondence and pamph
lets gathered in consultations with
scientists at various colleges and
universities.
Until a recent letter came from
an Oregon State college professor,
all effort toward solving the algae
problem was centered on finding
some chemical that would econom
ically and Inoffensively reduce the
algae to the desired degree.
There aro chemicals that will
kill Ihe algae. Best known of these
is copper sulphate, often used In
irrigation ditches; trouble is ih
this one that it also kills just about
everything else in the water. Most
desirable of the chemicals now
seems to be a concoction labeled
"2, 3 dlchloro naptho qulnone "
Research by three University of
Wisconsin prolessors, Dr. Folke
Skoog,' Gerald Serloff and George
Fitzgerald shows that this tongue-
twlsUng solution will effectively re
duce algae content without harm
ing anything else in the water. But
the stuff Is expensive . . . expen
sive lo the point It would cost at
least, i50.ooo a year II used in
Upper Klamath.
In the midst of all this chemi
cal talk. Prof. R, E. Dimick, head
Introduction
of fish and wildlife management
at Oregon State, has dropped an
entirely new Idea. This has to do
with Uie game fish with an appe
tite for algae we mentioned at the
beginning of this piece.
Let's forget about expensive and
experimental chemicals for Uie
nonce, says the professor, and try
and lind a good game fish Uiat
win eat Uie algae and also provide
anglers with a new sporting foe.
The professor's suggestion Is so
intriguing Uiat the chamber chiefs
and their iriends are at the mo
ment in something of a dither.
Wouldn t it be great if some fish
could be found that would thrive on
Upper Klamath's water and algae
and further be a battling challenge
to anglers? Sounds almost too good
to be possible. And maybe it is but
ti uie cnamoer's enthusiasm holds,
we're going to play this theory to
Uie bitter or sweet end.
RESORT CENTER
Because of Its location and size.
Upper Klamath Lake could easily
become a resort center Uiat would
make Sun valley look like an over-
site motel. Is our enthusiasm run
ning away with us? Well, let's
take a look at what we would have
texcept for Uiat pesky algae):
Plenty of room for any number
of resort hotels on a beautiful lake
surrounded by majestic and pic
turesque mountains, year-round
resorts, with water sports In the
summer and unlimited winter
sports, boating, fishing and swim
ming at the front doors, skiing and
bobsleddlng at the rear doors.
Granted It's only a dream us vet
but certainly not the type of fan
tasy that comes from an onium
pipe.
The chamber of commerce is tro.
Ing all-out on Uie idea and we
suggest Uiat you not scoff your
neck out too far If you're a Doubt
ing inomas , , ,
This dream Just might come
true.

Greek Army
Opens Fire .
On Bulgars
BULLETIN
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
oT L'nlted Nations observers
on the Greek-Bulgarian fron
tier said Thursday that big
forces from both countries are
ready for action. They said the
situation is "very dangerous."
ATHENS, Greece OH Greek
troops opened fire Thursday morn
ing on Bulgarian soldiers on the
Greek-claimed border Island of
Gamma. In the Evros River, Uie
Greek general staff announced.
A communique said the Greek
fire from machmeguns and mor
tars was not returned by the
troops irom Greece s soviet satel
lite northern neighbor.
The attack began at 8:30 a.m.
(An Istanbul dispatch said that
a top Turkish official at Adrlan
ople, Turkish border town 10 miles
from Gamma, reported that Uie
firing continued for about an hour
and a half, stopping around 10
a.m.)
The attack came after Bulgarian
troops had been noticed on the
island during Wednesday night, the
announcement said.
COMMUNIQUE
Earlier the general staff had
Issued a communique saying no
Bulgars had been seen on the
island after expiration of an earlier
Greek ultimatum demanding Uiat
all Bulgarian troops quit Gamma
by 8 a.m., Wednesday.
Press dispatches from corres
pondents in the area, written after
the expiration of the ultimatum but
apparently prior to the Greek at
tack, said those on the Greek side
of Uie frontier still could see uie
Bulgarians on the Island.
Thursday, army announcement
said the United Nations peace sub
committee was present when the
Greeks attacked and Uiat Just prior
to opening fire, the Greeks warned
the Bulgars by loudspeaker.
BULGAR ATTACK
The Island was the scene of a
Bulgarian attack on a Greek pa
trol July 27.
Three Greek soldiers were killed.
Reporting the incident to United
Nations headquarters, the U. N.
Balkan sub-committee condemned
the Bulgarian action.
(Greek diplomatic sources In Is
tanbul described the incident as
local, one of a series of flare-ups
in the area over the past live
years.
The Gamma dispute arose wnen
Uie Evros changed Its course. The
Greeks insisted the boundary re
mained Uie same. The Bulgarians
arirued it shifted with the river
and part of Uie newly created
island was theirs. The Evros rises
in Bulgaria southeast of Sofia. It
flows alone the Greek-Bulgarian
border and the Greek-Turkish bor
der and finally Into the Aegean
sea.)
McKay Denies
Long Reprieve
NESKOWTW. Ore. W Got.
Douglas McKay will not commute
the death sentence of Wayne Le
Roy Long and the convicted killer
will die Friday morning in the new
state prison gas chamber at Salem.
McKay, vacationing at t n l s
beach resort, said he would let Uie
law "take its course."
He said he understood Dale Ja
cobs, Long's attorney, was com
ing here Thursday to appeal for a
commutation, but Uie governor
said "the answer Is no."
The only time a governor has
authority to use executive clemen
cy in such a case is when he finds
Uie convicted man has not nad a
fair trial or new evidence is un
covered, the governor said.
"Long had a fair trial and there
has been no new evidence,'1 Mc
Kay added.
Informed of McKay's stand, Ja
cobs agreed that Long had been
given a fair trial but said he would
make the trip here anyhow, be
cause we leel we owe it to Long
to make this one last etfoiy." He
said no court appeal was planned,
and Uiat his request to McKay
would be made on the grounds that
Long might become a useful In
mate at the prison.
Long, who has made many un
successful attempts to escape, was
convicted of the murder in June,
1930, oi waiter KucKer, a Port
land carpenter.
He killed Rucker to get his truck,
used later in Uie robbery of an
east side branch bank. Long was
wounded and captured by FBI
agents as ne tied.
