ANOTHER ANGLE FOR THE
SNAGGER OF FISH—
Happenstance resulted in a trip
Monday to the Keasey power plant
of the Oregon Gas and Electric
Monday to be followed by the short
walk to the dam providing water
for the pipe line of the plant by
two people familiar with fishing
laws prohibiting the snagging of
fish.
The decrease in flow of water
over the dam at this tinfe of the
year has closed the fish ladder
which makes possible the journey
of fikh past the man-made obstruc
tion. Consequently, locked below
the dam were fish probably num
bering in excess of one hundred.
The flow of water was low and
the amount of protection offered
fish therein of little consequence
making it possible to practice the
“art” of snagging easily.
A decision by the members of
the Vernonia Softball League last
Thursday evening adopted an eight-
week schedule of play for the first
half of the season. The play for
that time will have two exhibition

sixth weeks of play at which time
it will be possible for make up
