Bevos Spoil
Two-Hitter
San Francisco (U.R) What
Portland Beavers do to Steve
Nagy shouldn't happen to a
pitcher. Their behavior toward
the short-statured southpaw is in
corrigible and . . . well, just
in downright poor taste.
It was only little more than
a fortnight ago that Portland,
held to one hit, beat Nagy and
Seattle 2-1. Tuesday night Steve
soft-balled a two-hitter . . and
lost 3-2.
Partly to Blam
However, the unlucky left
hander had himself partly to
blame for the loss. He had a 1-0
lead until the sixth, when he
walked Mike McCormick. Short
stop Artie Wilson then commit
ted his first of two- bobbles on
Joe Brovia's grounder.
Don Eggert dropped a bunt
and' Nagy, with a good shot to
force McCormick at third, threw
the ball away. One run was in.
Brovia scored on Herm Reich's
fly ball. And Eggert came home
on Ed Basinskl s single the
only hit of the inning.
Vic David VFW

Vic David took high over all
honors Sunday in the big bore
rifle shoot of the VFW Rifle and
Pistol club at the Camp White

Childers qualified. as marksmen
with scores better than 130.

Fingerling Trout
Placed by Plane
In Cascade Lakes
Portland The game com
mission's Cascade mountain aer
ial fish planting mission is near-
ing its goal of 400 remote Cas
cade lakes stocked this summer
with 3,180,000 rainbow and
brook trout.
Stocking of Mt. Hood national
forest lakes from Hood river and
Deschutes and Willamette na
tional forest lakes from Fall
River trout hatchery flight strip
has been completed and fish
plants are now being made in
Umpqua and Rogue river nation
al forest lakes from the Fort
Klamath air strip. Aerial pho
tos are used to locate many of
the lakes for planting.
Special Equipment
Tiny fingerling trout are
flown to the high lakes, most
of them accessible only by trail,
in a Piper super cub fitted with
special belly tanks and an aer
ation system. Sam Whitney of
Newberg has piloted the fish
run for the past four years, with
fishery agents Reino Koski and
John Dimick handling transport
of fish from hatchery to air strip
and over-all planting,.
Heaviest aerial plant was an
allocation of 00 ,000 rainbow
and 300,000 eastern brook trout
,to Waldo lake, a 5500 acre body
of wilderness surrounded water
on the crest of the Cascade
range.
A two-man game commission
survey crew outfitted with pack
animals is checking on fish pop
ulations in many of the remote
Cascade lakes to determine trout
survival, fish growth rates and
numbers, and fishing success re
sulting from the aerial stocking
program.

lenger Rocky Marciano started
training here Wednesday to meet
Jersey Joe Walcott in their
heavyweight title fight, reliably
reported to be set for Philadel
phia's Municipal Stadium Sep
tember 23,
As the unbeaten "blockbuster"
from Brockton, Mass., began con
ditioning at this swanky resort
in the Catskills, everyone offic
ially connected with the bout
still insisted that the match was
not made and that no city had
been selected for the "millyun
dollar" brawl.
Marciano was an early 2 to 1
favorite.' It was "even money"
Walcott would not last the sched
uled 15 rounds.
KID SOON READY
Portland (U.R) Jack Hurley,
manager of Harry Kid Matthews,
said Wednesday that his fighter
would soon be ready to go into
action. Matthews was knocked
out in the second round last
month by Rocky Marciano in
New York. Hurley would not
say where Matthews' "come
back" would begin, but said a
number of cities had made of
fers. These include, he said,
Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Cleve

Wasp and HobsoiT
Collision Blamed
On Young Skipper
Washington (U.R) The
Navy Wednesday closed its books
on the disastrous collision of
the destroyer minesweeper Hob
sort and the aircraft .carrier
Wasp after . placing the blame
on a youthful skipper who went
down with , his ship.
A Navy Court of Inquiry
found that Lt. Cmdr. William
J. Tierney,- commanding officer
of the, Hobson, was solely re
sponsible, for his ship being
ramrred .by the Wasp during
maneuvers in mid-Atlantic last
April 26.
The Hobson sank almost im
mediately after colliding with
the Wasp. The accident, in which
176 crew members of the Hobson
were lost, ranks as the Navy's
worst modern peacetime sea dis
aster. The court said Tierney, a 32-year-old
former reserve officer,
"committed a grave error in
judgment'' in making the fatal
turn which brought his ship di
rectly into the path of the Wasp.
The court, which functions
much as a civilian grand jury,
was set up to determine the
cause for the disaster as a pre
liminary to disciplinary action.
Since it pinned the blame soley
on Tierney, a Navy spokesman
said, there would be no further
Naval action in the case.
