    Battle zucchini

    Overwhelmed with zucchini? Some of us at the Herald and News are. One of our copy editors brought in a box of giant zucchini last week and put us to the test. I turned one specimen into four loaves of zucchini bread and a casserole and still had a significant amount left. That’s not counting the zucchini that ended up in my eyebrows. Luckily, the Herald and News is here to help. Each year we print recipes from readers. If you have a tasty favorite, send it to news@heraldandnews.com.

    Name that rivalry

    On Tuesday night, the H&N sports department covered the crosstown doubleheader between Triad and Hosanna Christian.

9-year-old wins trophy trout derby

5 p.m., Saturday, April 12, 2008

Kylee Matthews, 9, yanked and pulled on her fishing rod to get the 28.5-inch trout she caught from Upper Klamath Lake onto the boat.

The fish earned her $1,000 on Saturday during the 2008 Trophy Trout Fishing Derby sponsored by the Herald and News and other local businesses. Of 350 participants, she caught the longest trout during the inaugural catch and release contest, which benefited the South Portal Project, which will develop the south entry into Klamath Falls.
