PAGE SEVEN :W -ii iSliiiiiisllSrSii LEAD WILL CARRY TO Preparations Started at Forbes Field for Staging Classic Reds Drop to Third Place by Loss By SID FEDER (Associated Press 8porta Writer.) They're ordered the lumber and started to build at Forbes field In xpectatlon of a Pittsburgh half to the 1838 world series, but The Cubs are coming back to life and have climbed back to second place. The Otants are taking strides along the road back. The Reds can't be counted out. Still, the Pirates are five games In front of the pack today, as the remit of the 7-1 whipping they hand ed Cincinnati behind Bob Klinger's six-hit elbowing yesterday. And with only 38 games to go. you can't sneeze at a five-game margin particularly now that Rookie Kllnger la definitely over his "sore-arm -itia." Reds Take Slide. The Reds, by losing to the Bucs, who are alternately blazing and frost ed these days, dropped down to third place, and the Cubs took over the runner-up spot with a 7-fl decision ever the St. Louis Cardinals. This was the Cubs' fourth straight success. The Giants got some effective pitching from Rookie Johnny Wittlg, recent Importation from Baltimore, and made It two straight over the Boston Bees by a 6-3 margin. The American league race, how aver, continues to be Just a business of playing out the string. The Tanks, boasting a 13 -game bulge, are due to arrive at the pennant clinch ing ceremonies In something less than two weeks, despite such interrup tions on the way as the 11-4 kicking around they were handed by the Boston Red Sox yesterday.

The reason is that 11 award winners are re- j v turning lor more jt '1 action, enough i fe -4 rft club of veterans. sometimes been Billy Rulen, accused of being an old-fashioned coach, teaching his players that the shortest distance to the goal line Is straight ahead, on the ground, yard by y&rd by sheer power. The accusa tion Is perhaps unjust, because It Is a well-known fact that a coach must develop his offense according to the material on hand, and Grants Pass always has been noted for Its bigf heavy, slow-footed lads who couldn't pull a rawJe-dnsale play If life depended on It. Whether Tuttle Is a coach of the od school or whether he has been Just doing the best he could with the type of material on hand will be known this season for certain, for the Cavemen, for the first time In many years, will be one of the light est teams In the conference. Bo say All the powerhouse players of Grants Pas have gone out via grad uation, and Tuttle, assisted by George Erlckson and Otis Wilson, win be forced to open up their offense If they want to score touchdowns. The head coach sincerely believes this can be done, and reports from there arc to the effect that the Cavemen will be throwing plenty of passes this year. Grants Pass plnys three conference games as usual, meeting Medford at ,MedIord, November 18; Ashland "at (Grants Pass, September 30, and : Klamath Falls at Klamath Falls, October 7. In addition to those games, the Cavemen clash with non conference opponents five times. The schedule follows: Sept. 23 North Bend at Grants Pau. Sept. 30 Ashland at Grants Pass, Oct. 7. Klamath Falls at Klam ath Falls. Oct. 14 Yreka at Grants Pas. Oct. 22. Marshfleld at Marshfleld, Oct. 28 Open. Nov. 4 Ashland at Ashland (non- conference).

Games will ba played with Med ford Junior high, Glendale high and probably second teams of Ashland, Grants Pass, Klamsth Falls and Med ford. Ken Htilbert, central Point 254 ELK KILLED IN CLATSOP CO. SEASON ASTORIA, Sept. 8 (P) Hunters bagged about 80 more elk In Clatsop county than the game commission predicted, hut thrft was because the bull population was larger than any one thought. Frank B. Wire, game superintend ent, said a noon count yesterday re vealed 284 mighty animals hsd fallen. The season closed at sundown last night. "We estimated that the kill might amount to 175 animals," he explained, "but these new statistics indicated that there are many more elk In Clatsop county than we considered." While the kill exceeded expecta tions, there were some 1200 of the estimated 1600 huntsmen who left the area empty-handed. AS NEW YOrtK. Sept. 8. fl) Donald Budge, the eminent amateur, has a great deal more on hla mind than a shock or red hair u ha atart out after hla fourth major tennis cham pion ship of the year tomorrow at the West Side club In Forest Hills If he wins this one, the Oakland swatter will become the first player In history to sweep the Australian. Freneh. British and American cham pionships In succession, and the value of such a feat will be more than considerable when he gets down to talking turkey with the profes sional promoters this winter. Conversely, a defeat would stamp him as something short of invincible and would be taken Into due ac count when the contract Is drawn up for his grand tour with Elly Vines and Fred Perry. That is why Big Red is carrying around a somewhat worried look that and the fact he hasn't been able to shake a sore throat he con tracted In Australia six months ago, or bring his game to anything like Its peak. An examination by a throat specialist here yesterday gave him little encouragement. No one who has seen Budge at his flamboyant best could doubt he was sorely afflicted In the Davis cup matches at Germantown over the past week-end. His first service was worth almost nothing to him, and he went Into frequent lapses where he netted or outed like a novice. It was with a painfully visible effort he pulled himself together and defeated Jack Bromwlch. the Australian, In their singles match. 4 Ducks Coming Back Strong With Better Refuge Plans PORTLAND, Sept. 8. (API Those strange fellows who stagger Joy fully through Icy swamps to bag ducks and, geese will have lest cause for moans this year, Ira N. Qabrlelson said yesterday. The chief of the biological survey i trailed autumn's first whispers Into I town and predicted a "much larger j flight this year" of migratory waterfowl. 'W are a long way ahead of the low spot In 1034," said the former director of Oregon wild Jlfe. "Water conditions have been good the last year In breeding grounds and the weather has been excellent, "If hunters will Just be patient we're going to have bird life back to something of Its old state." Oabrlelson, head of the Oregon of fice before becoming national chief of the biological survey, checked northwest refuge areas. "We're very much pleased with the progress made at Malheur lake," he said. "Already a tremendous number of birds are using the refuge. It's beginning to look like old times.' The lake held more than 40.000 acres of water 20 years ago. It dwindled to almost nothing but under the government's restoration program It has grown to 20,000 acres. "If we can complete our refuge system, which already Includes 120 waterfowl projects in the United States, we will have a safety valve against extermination of birds," Gab rtelson commented. TEAM MATCH ON GRAB GOLF LEAD MANCHESTER, Mass., Sept. 8. ;p) Bolstered by a commanding lead of two and a half points to a half-point, the British women's Curtis cup golf team appeared assured of gaining as many more out of today's six singles matches and relieving their Amer ican sisters of the trophy the latter have held since the International competition was Inaugurated in 1032. The visitors, undaunted by yr - day's rain at the Essex county club, won two and halved the third and final Scotch foursomes match to al most clinch the team play. Mrs. Hel en Holm, current British champion, and Clarrle Tie man gained the first point by defeating Mrs. Es telle Law son Page, current national tltllst, and Maureen Orcutt, by 3 up, Jessie An derson and Elsie Corlett gave Eng land Its second marker by topping Mrs. Glenne. Colic tt Vara and Patty Berg, 1 up. and the half-point was added when Mrs. J. B. Walker and Phyllis Wade won the last two holes to finish all square with Marlon Mi ley and Kathryn Hemphill. Team matches will be resumed In the Medford armory next Monday night, with Pete Belcastro and Tiger Tsakoff combining their talents against Alvln Brltt and Paul Mur dock. Promoter Llllard announced today. Tsakoff, 300-pound Bulgarian and Murdock will ba returning to the local arena after long absences, Tsakoff last appearing here over three years ago and Murdock being gone for about six months. Tn the opening event. Mike Stre llch will clash with Juan Sebastian for alx rounds or the best two out of three falls.
