Chamber Meeting
Road To Jordan Valley
Along Sucker Creek
To Be Sought
Ormond Thomas, a member of the
Nyssa chamber of commerce roads
committee, told chamber members
at their weekly luncheon "Wednes
day noon that the proposed Sucker
creek road between Adrian and
Jordan Valley should be the next
highway project to receive the ac
tive support of the local group.
Thomas explained that the coun
ty court has set up funds to send
County Judge Sewell Stanton to
Portland occasionally to attend
highway commission meetings with
a vietv of "trying to get some farm-
to-market roads". Tiie speaker said
that Stanton will ask the commis
sion to build a road up Sucker creek
to connect the Jordan Valley and
Sheaville areas to northern Mal
heur county. To go north or south
now, a motorist must go into Idaho
if he desires to travel on a modern
highway.
Irrigation water standing on the
new highway between Nyssa and
Ontario also received the attention
of the chamber of commerce.
Thomas said T h e water on the
highway is going to cost us money.
The practice has been going on for
several years. It is a difficult prob
lem, but something must be done.
Highway officials know about the
water and have investigated the sit
uation".
President Thomas Jones appoint
ed Clyde Snider and Ted Morgan
as members of a committee to con
duct further moves against the
practice of allowing irrigation wat
er to flood the highway.
Bernard Frost said Judge Star-
ton has shown concern over the road
to the Owyhee dam and to Leslie
gulch. He indicated the county and
road district will improve the road
to the dam and send a bulldozer to
Leslie gulch for use on the road
there for a day or two. As Leslie
gulch attracts more tourists, the
road wil’ need to be improved. Frost
said tourists will not encourage oth
ers to go there because of the con
dition of the road.
Oene Stunz reported on a high
way 20 association meeting that he
and Elmer Cruson attended in Burns
Monday night. A new road is under
construction from Tumelo to Bend
and a section from Newport to
Toledo will be rebuilt. Stunz said
association officers will seek the sup
port of the legislature in the pro
ject o f improving and promoting
highway 20, which is not considered
as a military highway. Highway
20 association was organized several
years ago by residents of the Will
amette valley and coastal areas.
Cruson said the association plans
erecting a series of small signs a-
long the highway through southern
Idaho.
Oene Orasty discussed the high
way 20 meeting to be held In Vale
Monday night and also signs to be
erected along the highway.

Hungarian partridges a day and six
for the season, which would run con
currently with the pheasant season.
The league suggested an open sea
son on mountain quail during the

a day or in possession.
Ace Gunderson, president of the
league, reported that sportsmen at
tending a tri-county meeting In La
Grande recommended the deer sea
son be open from September 29 to
October 25. the elk season from Nov-
euvber 3 to 28 and the antelope sea
son from August 4 to 12.
At a previous meeting of the Mai
heur Game league, the members
suggested the sagehen season run
concurrently with the antelope sea
son with bag limit of four a day or
eight for the season.
The sportsmen voted in favor of a
straight season on ducks and recom
mended that an applicant for a
special license must send in his
license number with his application.
Bill Lightfoot of the game depart
ment said the organization Is think
ing of dividing the antelope territory
into three sections and Issuing spec
ial licenses for each section because
of the concentration of animals In
certain areas. The sections would be
roughly Malheur, Harney and Lake
counties.
Lightfoot and other fieldmen
indicated t h e y would like to
have the sagehen season during
the antelope season. They would
also like to have the elk sea
son open the same as last year.
The department is In favor of a re
duction in the deer population.
