PHEASANT FLUSHING BAR The state game commission, wor
ried about the high mortality rate of nesting pheasants, recom
mends the use of a "flushing bar" on tractors, as illustrated above.
In a news release last week it said they have proven successful in
experiments in Ohio and Iowa, and that the number of hen pheas
ants which are killed by mowers can be reduced by 35 to 45 per
cent by using them. The unit weighs some 85 pounds and can be
constructed for $25 to $30 of new materials, and less when mate
rials found around almost any farm are used. Plans for such a
unit can be obtained free from the game commission office, P.O.
Box 4136, Portland.

Mims Gets Nod
In Shoddy Scrap
Philadelphia (U.R) If Holly
Mims of Washington, D. C, hopes
to move into a middleweight title
fight, he'll have to improve
greatly on his shoddy though
winning performance over Bob
by Jones of Oakland, Calif., in
their roundly-booed bout Friday
night.
Mindful that it takes) two to
tango the dissatisfied crowd of
several hundred expected Mims,
No. 4 middleweight contender
and 9-5 favorite ,to force some
action even if Jones was unable
or unwilling to do so.
Boxers Warned
The little flurry of fighting
there was in the nationally tele
vised and broadcast match came
in the final three rounds after
referee Zach Clayton had warned
the boxers to "step it up" for
the third time. The 25-year-old
Mims was responsible practically
for all of this action and it paved
the way for his unanimous decis
ion triumph.
The bout was so lethargic by
the end of seven rounds that
State Athletic Commissioner Al
fred Klein stepped to the ring
apron and exhorted the boxers
to "get in there and fight."

In Major Debut
By UNITED PRESS
Herb Score's big league debut
was pronounced a success.
Score, the fabulous rookie
strikeout king up from Indian
apolis in the American Associa
tion, hurled the Tribe into first
place Friday with a 7-3 victory
over the Detroit Tigers while
the Yankees handed the Boston
Red Sox their first loss of the
campaign, 6-4.
The Brooklyn Dodgers ham
mered out three home runs to
beat the New York Giants, 6-3,
and hand the world champions
their third straight setback of
the new season in the only other
big league game played.
Score, who had a 22-5 record
and struck' out 330 batters for
Indianapolis, had fits of wild
ness and walked nine batters.
But he proved his mettle with
runners on the base paths, struck
out nine, allowed only seven hits
and left 10 Tigers stranded on
base. -

G. Gorbous
Cincinnati
t
Reds Player
A former Medford Nugget
has reached the major leagues
Glen Gorbous, third-sacker on
the Medford entry in the profes'
sional Far West Baseball league
in 1949 is now on the squad of
the Cincinnati Redlegs of the
National league.
He appeared as a pinch hitter
for the Reds on opening day last
week.
Gorbous, since his departure
from here, has been switched
to the outfield and he is a spare
fielder for the Reds.
The Vulcan, Alta., Advocate,
newspaper of Gorbous home
town, has this to say about the
baseballer:
"A member of the Brooklyn
Dodgers farm system for some
years, Gorbous played for sev
eral different teams before his
services were acquired by Cin
cinnati. Last year he was with
the Dodgers' farm team at Fort
Worth, Tex., where his powerful
hitting from the port side and
fine throwing arm impressed
Cincinnati scouts and resulted in
his tryout this spring with the
Redlegs."
: He is reportedly one of two
rookies on the Red's club. ,
Gorbous stars on a Vulcan
hockey team during the winter.
So far as is known, he is the
first player for a Medford club
in the Far West loop to reach
the majors. The league folded
after the 1951 season, its fourth.
