NKW YOHK l'PI Branch ; liieke-y hurled Baseball Commis ' siorer Kurd Frick's words back at hnn today with an angry retort that implied the majo- leagues are trying to scuttle the Continen tal League. It was the closest Rickey ha; j yet come to a direct charge of , ba I faith regarding coopcratiu.i i with the formation of the third league. Karlier, the 77-year oil first president of the Continental League called upon Frick and other baseball officials to honor 1 the r "unmiahfied assurance" that they sunpart major league expan sion through the formation of a third league. Kenny Lane Earns Nod Over Akins WASHINGTON U'Pli For mer welterweight champion Vir gil Akins yelled today. "We wuz robbed of a technical knockout!" and he demanded a return bout with southpaw Kenny Lane, who won the decision Wednesday night despite a ba lly cut right brow. ' ' In the third round of their TV f'ght at the New Capitol Arena. Akins of St. Louis had climbed down from the ring and was starting for the dressing room when Referee Ray Barnes called him back a id told him the bout wculd continue. The recall came after a two minute halt in the third round. during which the referee and Dr Dave Gordon discussed the advis ability of stopping the scheduled to-rounder because of a bloody, inch and one-half gash on Lane's right brown. They decided to let the fight go on. Commission Chairman Harvey "Jocko" Mi her said that was permissible under DistricMof Co lumbia rules. Lane's- seconds, headed by Manager Jack (Doc I Kearns. did a good job in limiting the flow of blocd from the cut during tne rest of the f'eht Mea-,:,". speedy Lane of Muskegon, Mich., used in-and-out tactics aga.nsi aggressive Virgil to win a ma jority decision. Rickey's new blast was touched olf by Knek's explanation that the majors "hae not committed o..i selves to a third league as lh. o.ly possible metlr.d of expa.; sio.i." ' Cn.f Vay Poiible" "It is the only way possible," roared Rickey. "They knew it when they first agreed to support us and they know it now. Base ball can't expand in any other way." Asked if he was scying the ma jors arc going hack on a promise "to avoid iute-ference," Rickey again roared in aner. "Interference, that's the word they said no interference." Rickey stopped then added in normal tones: "I'm shouting. 1 must compose myself. I simply refer to my earlier statement. I stand to that." Rickey had contend d in a 600 word statement issued Wednesday that Frick and the leagues en dorsed the Continental League on bo;h May 21 and August 18. Ex hibit A was ai August 18 state ment by Frick which said: "The members of the committee will nipport a tlii-d league movement and will attemnt to ovoid inter ference." Thinly-Veiied Accusation After making that point, Rickey concluded his formal statement with a thinly-vc, led accusation. "I entered the professional game of baseball in 1903 at the uw of 21. During the ensuing j years I came to know all the per sons connected with the ownership of major league clubs. By and large, they were, and are, good sportsmen and gentlemen of honor."

HUNTING PROSPECTS Elk hunting in Grant county should be go:d ill the Desolation unit on Desolation creek and hlcher e'evatiens on the middle fork of the John Day river.

Elk in the Wheeler unit are not numerous and hunting will be slow for either sex ani mals. With the mild weather and lack of snow, elk are scattered over their ranges. Opening weekend -sue cess hould be better at tipper eleva tions of ranges. Some of the bet ter areas for success in the Uma tilla district should be Hone SniiiiL's. headwaters of south and north forks of the Walla Walla river. Black Mountain, headwat ers of the north fork of Meach im creek. Meadow creek and Tower Mountain. Most all reads are passible, hut sr.itic m the Tollgate area have large mudholes. In I'n ion and Baker counties. prospects are fair to good in the Tollgate, Mt. Emily, Stnrkey and Sampler arras. A few patches of mi w remain m the high Wallo- Wa rnniinta ni; all other areas in Wal'owj c runty arc wet and muddy from recent rains ! In the Wenaha area. Jarheau neado.is. Rrcck Meadows. Look jut Mountain, Elk Klat. Round ind Luna meadows should be fair along the tip for hunter success .j ltoek creek. Slick Ear. Milk creek, and llutte creek should be fair along the Wenaha river.
