MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOKD. OREGON, MONDAY. JULY 22. 1935 PAGE THREE E PLAN WILL MEET Grants Pass Sportsmen De clare Move Probably 'Bluff At Least One Claim False, Is Assertion. GRANTS PASS, July 22. (AP) Announcement in Marshfteld over the week-end of plan to file pre liminary petition today for an in itiative to open the Rogue river to commercial .fishing met here today with plans for a determined fight If it reaches the voting stage, but also with the declaration that the move is probably a "bluff and that at least one of the claims is false. The petition would ask for open ing of the river from March, 15 to June 30. The "Rogue Flaherlea Un ion" and individual citizens are named as sponsors and claim is made that sports fishing is "prac tically nil" during that period. Says Move Bluff State Senator James T. C 111 n nock, who was leader of the senate drive in the last legislature which closed the river by statute, declared that he believes the action Is "a blurt." Senator Chlnnock also pointed out that a new law forbids the pur chase or payment to agents for names on petitions, which would hinder securing enough names lor the- initiative. An initiative also re quires more names than does a referendum. Sportsmen denied the assertion that sports fishing is poor between March 15 and June 30. When a similar proposal was before the last legislature to open the river to net ting during that period they were vehement In their objections. They declared that practically the only fishing for Chinook salmon In the upper river comes during that period and officers of the local chapter of the I2aak Walton league announced that the proposal was an attempt by commercial fisher men to net the only run which they had not previously ruined. Closed By Commission The state fish commission recog nized that commercial fishing was depleting the river of salmon and by department order also closed the river at all times for five years In order to study the damage done and to re-stock the river. It was not known here If the Initiative was also specifically aimed at the commission order or if it would stand unaffected should the initia tive win. Josephine county legislators and sportsmen felt assured of support from Gold Beach, which in previous campaigns always supported the open river. Curry county, they said, has been definitely won to recog nition of the fact that more wealth could be secured from sports than from commercial fishing. E The suit of George M. Roberts, and others, as shareholders of the "Lucky 13" mine, against W. E.

National league bat ters pounded the offerings of Lefty Gomes of the Yankees, and Mel Har der of the Indians, far and wide out their efforts went for naught when the outfielders hauled their smacks down for put-outs. 'What a spot!" remarked Gomez after the game. "You Just toss It up there and let 'em hit; someone Is sure to catch the ball." The National leaguers made only foun hits off the combined efforts of Gomez and Harder. Three hits In six Innings waa Lefty's yield while Harder gave but one in the three frames he pitched. The Cleveland mound ace didn't have quite the chance to steal the show in this year's all-star affair that he did In the game last year, but he shared the pitching honors with Go mez. Perhaps Harder needs a setting like the Inter-league meeting to In spire him to do his best. He did not disappoint the home folks who went wild when he stepped out on the mound in the seventh inning. Harder seems to be headed for the best season of his big league career, for he already boast an even dozen victories against five defeats. He turned in 20 victories last year "out had 13 losses charged against him. Even so, he ranked second only to Lefty Gomez In the earned run aver ages with a mark of 3.61 runs per nlne-lnntng game. Combs Still Going Strong. Even after Earle Combs flashed ht old-time form in the early games of the season the skeptics insisted that hla come-back would be halted when the warm weather set In. Well, the warm and even hot days are here and have been with us for some time. But there has been no sign of filter-' ing on the gray-haired Yankee's pnrt. Instead, Combs seems to be moving forward all the time. One might reasonably expect that the near-fatal accident In St. Louis last summer would take Its toll but apparently It has not, for Combs In sists that he feels stronger and fat?r than he did last year. He doesn't mean that he feels as spry as he did four or five seasons ago that would be silly but he does feel that he Is going better than he has at any time In the last couple of years. It's chasing files In the outfield that makes him realize that he is slipping a bit as far as his speed Is concerned. Fly balls that would hsve been easy oa tehee a few years ago now take a bit of extra pressure to snare. That's one of the reasons Earle Is coming through with so many spectacular catches this year. Double-headers, too, have a way of getting the veteran down for they take so much out of him that It la days before he finds his stride again. Couldn't Stay Away. For 35 years, A. H.

And then a few weeks sgo he decided that he had enough of baseball, or thought he had, and quit. A few weeks of leisure away from the boys convinced him that he could not be happy in his self-imposed exile. So back he went to the bench beside his players. Woodward has always been one of the most popular owners in baseball, so it Is no wonder that his return was greeted with cheers by his friends and associates In the southern lorp.
