The Roseburg High School boys soccer team defeated Crater 5-0 in a Southern Oregon Conference Hybrid game Saturday at Finlay Field in Roseburg.

"Last week was, I think, a tough week for us," Roseburg head coach Alexander Ferere said. "We didn't get the results we wanted against Thurston, and we didn't really show up in form against Grants Pass, so this was a nice reset. And hopefully, we can keep this momentum for the next rest of the season."

As the sun set over Roseburg on Friday, visitors of Fir Grove park sat with their eyes glued to the sky. Then, one by one, small black shapes began to dart back and forth across the twilight. They were few in number, but there was no question: The Vaux's swifts had returned.

The gathering was one of two viewings planned by the Umpqua Bird Alliance (UBA) to view the annual return of the migratory birds, who gather year after year to roost for the evening in Umpqua Valley Art's Clay Place chimney.

From 2024 to 2025, Oregon saw one of the largest increases in homeless veterans in the U.S. Now, the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) is working to reverse that trend by distributing millions in grant funding to community organizations.

On September 16, the VA announced via press release it has awarded over $38 million in grants to 22 organizations in Oregon. Funding will go towards helping Oregon veterans who are either currently homeless or at risk of becoming homeless in 2027.

According to the VA, the funding is part of a nationwide $1.17 billion in grants awarded to over 680 organizations across the U.S.

Part of the grant funding was distributed through the agency's Supportive Services for Veteran Families program, which aims to provide low-income veteran families with housing support. Seven organizations operating in Oregon received funding from this program.

Another 15 Oregon-based organizations, including ones based in Portland, Salem, Eugene, Corvallis, Medford and Beaverton, received funding through the Grant and Per Diem program, which provides transitional housing and case management support for veterans

A zipper merge is now in place for drivers traveling on Oregon 42 from Winston Interstate 5.

Dan Latham of the Oregon Department of Transportation said new signs and pavement markings were added early Thursday morning directing eastbound Oregon 42 drivers to take turns merging near the bridge over Interstate 5, where two lanes narrow to one.

Latham said under the old pattern, most drivers would get in the left lane miles before the merge point. The lane imbalance often stretched back to Kelly’s Corner and beyond, creating congestion, causing delays and affecting operations at upstream intersections.

Drivers are now encouraged to use both lanes all the way to the merge point, then take turns merging like the teeth of a zipper.

Latham said cooperation is the key to making the new system work. Neither lane has priority. The new signs and pavement markings suggest that drivers in both lanes need to move over.

While Sutherlin's sidewalks are usually empty on early mornings, drivers commuting across Central Avenue saw them lined with students sharing a singular message: Those struggling with mental health are not alone.

The display was Sutherlin middle and high school's 5th annual Signs of Hope Campaign, an annual student gathering held between students and school staff to raise awareness for suicide.

From 7–8 a.m. on Wednesday, participants waved signs with positive and encouraging messages, such as "you matter," "tomorrow needs you" or "dial 988 no suicide." Passing cars honked to show their support as the school's bulldog mascot danced and waved.

According to Sutherlin Middle School councilor Amanda Roig, the event began five years ago as a way to participate in National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. As the years progress, tragedies have made participation particularly significant for Sutherlin.

"We lost a student a couple of years ago to suicide and a lot of community members," Roig said. "I think that it's important to show people that they matter and that someone cares about them and that there's help...They don't have to be alone in it."
