Mr. Perry Kitzmiller, secretary and treasurer of the club, is keeping a 

 record of salmon that have been caught on light tackle. Over one hundred 

 and forty of these fish have been landed during the past two months — many 

 of them not coming up to the qualified weight. Some of the members have 

 landed several fish which have been above the qualified weight. Mr. Harry 

 Abele, the first man to qualify by landing a chinook salmon weighing 20 

 lbs. 4 oz., soon after landed two more salmon, — one weighing 25 lbs. and the 

 other weighing 26 lbs. 



Walter Backus, of Portland, has been trying out light tackle on the 

 Umpqua Eiver. He recently landed three chinook salmon, each of which 

 was heavy enough to qualify him for membership in the Salmon Club.
