The Reds can't be counted out.
Still, the Pirates are five games
In front of the pack today, as the

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

254 ELK KILLED IN
CLATSOP CO. SEASON
ASTORIA, Sept. 8 (P) Hunters
bagged about 80 more elk In Clatsop

bull population was larger than any
one thought.
Frank B. Wire, game superintend

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

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

Maureen Orcutt, by 3 up, Jessie An
derson and Elsie Corlett gave Eng

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
