    Yaks, Braves
Victors in
NWL Frays
By HAY ANDREWS
Unittd Preu Sport! Writer
Two Northwest league hurlers
bumped into the ninth-inning
blues last night but weathered
the storms to post victories.
Don Boenker of Yakima went
all the way in the Bears' 5-4
decision over Salem. Salem had
pushed across two runs in the
ninth and had the tying run on
base before Boenker got off the
hook.
Yakima got its winning run
in the top of the ninth on an
error, a walk and a single by
Dick Renner.
Ted Kazek of Tri-City was
rocked for two homers in the
ninth but stayed around to notch
a 9-6 decision over Lewiston.
Bruce Macintosh belted a two-
run homer and Gene Kllngler hit
one with the bases empty for
Lewiston in the ninth. Joe Riney
hit a solo homer for the Broncs
in the sixth.
However. TH-City collected 14
hits including a two-run homer
in the fifth by Tom Perez to
stake Kazek to the victory.
Ray Zarl, Tri-City catcher, had
two doubles and drove in three
runs and Perez had two other
hits to go with his homer.
A scheduled game between
Spokane and Wenatchee was
washed out at the end of four
innings with the score 0-0. Glen
Isringhaus. Wenatchee pitcher,
had not allowed a hit and Bill
Bottler, Spokane's moundsman,
had allowed only one scratch
single in the four innings.
GP, Glendale in Feature
RVL Brush; Colts Go to BF
Grants Pass will be the scene
of the main attraction this Sun
day in the Rogue Valley Base
ball league.
The Merchants will be hosts
to Glendale in their afternoon
rucku:i. Rivalry between the two
clubs is for lone possession of
the league leadership. The two
clubs currently are tied in the
race.
Other games take the Cheney
Colts to Butte Falls, Eagle Point
to Cave Junction and Ashland
to Camp White.
The Colts and Cave Junction
are favored in their tangles and
victories by the two clubs would
move them into a tie for second
place with the losers of the GP
Glendale skirmish. First place
is out of reach this week for the
Cheney and Junction nines.
Colts' pitching call Sunday
likely will go to Duane Sides
with Howard Morris catching.
Infielders may be Harvey Tonn
at first base, Morrie Churchman
at second, Frank Rector at
shortstop and Donn Johnson at
third. Outfielders will be chosen
from among Doy Gatlin, Ed
Reinking, Larry Bigham, Bob
Serak and Laval Meunier.
Bigham pulled a muscle in the
Wednesday game at Roseburg,
and his status for the Sunday
mix is not certain.
Bruce Forette, from Contra
Costa Junior college may be
with the Colts this week end.
He made a tryout appearance
with- the parent club Studs on
the mound at Bend on Wednes
day. Bob Nelson may get the start
ing call on the mound for Camp
White with Al Waldron and Don
Mintz on hand for relief if re
quired. Ashland may choose
from among Gene Pareftt, Jerry
Montgomery and Eldon Durham.
Joey Lopes
Faces Rosi
New York (U.R) Lightweight
Joey Lopes of Sacramento, Calif.
pits his speed and skill against
Italian Paolo Rosi s punch to
night in their TV-radio 10-round-er
at Madison Square Garden.
Lopes, 25, is favored at 13-10
because of his combined youth
and experience, and his former
ranking.
Until last Jan. 13, Lopet was
raied tenth among contenders
for the 135-pound crown. Then
he was defeated by Ludwig
Lightburn, number seven, in a
close fight at San Francisco; and
he dropped out of the ratings.
Since then California Joesy
registered four straight victories.
He hopes to score an impressive
TV win tonight and bounce back
Into the rankings.
Rosi, 28, is a "name" fighter
although unranked. Because of
his punch he has difficulties
getting matches with top-flight-

Ernie Given
Nod in Bout
Portland (U.R) Ernie Dur
ando, 162 pounds, Bayonne, N.J.,
won a split 10-round decision
from Jimmy Martinez, 160, Phoe
nix, Thursday night.
The referee scored the fight
56 points to 51 in favor of Mar
tinez, but the judges scored it
for Durando by slim margins,
54 to 53 and 57 to 53.
Durando, making his first ap
pearance in the ring in eight
months, wasn't the Durando of
old, according to his handler,
Joe Vella.
"His timing was off," said
Vella, "but that was to be ex
pected because of his inactivity,
We have no excuses to make."
United Press scored it seven
rounds for Martinez, two even,
one for Durando.

31,600 Silver Salmon
Rescued From Potholes
Portland The Tenmile Lake
Sportsmen's Association and the
Oregon State Game Commission
recently combined forces to ac
complish a sizable job of sal
mon salvage In the Tenmile
lakes area.
Up to the present time 31,000
young silver salmon have been
rescued from potholes and re
leased Into the larger stream
flows of the Tenmile lakes sys
tem. The group is now working
on Big Benson creeks, the last
tributary streams to receive at
tention. Most of the work is being
done by the fish salvage com
mittee of the Tenmile Lake
Spo-tsmen's group assisted by
Bill Saltzman, game commission
fishery biologist at Reedsport.
Game commission nets and pack
cans are being utilized by the
committee in the salvage attempts.
Unsanctioned
River Race
Class Added
Redding, Calif. Two classes
have been cut from and a special
unsanctioned ' class has been
added to this years second an
nual Stockton to Redding river
race, August 18-19.
The cuts are CU and DU, both
two-day classes last year. Addi
tion is a Sunday-boater division
with four classes within itself.
CU was cut because of the
lack of possible entries. The two-
day DU class was eliminated in
order to channel more of the big
boats into the straight-through
Diamond cup race on August 19.
ine changes mean no cut in
the sack full of prize money
($5,000), however. First place in
the Diamond cup still pays
81,000. All the others, with the
exception of unsanctioned, pay
$500 first place money.
To encourage professionals to
stay out of the unsanctioned
class, no money will be offered.
Trophies only will be awarded.
The four unsanctioned groups
will be divided primarily by
horsepower motor ratings: 15-20,
20-25, 25-30, 30-35.
Exact details on all classes
can be obtained by writing the
East Bay Boat club in Oakland.
EBBC was low bidder on pro
ducing the 316-mile event this
year. The race was run last year
by the Northern California Out
board Association.
A $2,200 Diamond Cup tro
phy, won last year by Arvid
Nyleen of Willamina, Ore., will
be awarded the DU driver who
can take first in the Diamond
cup classic three successive
years.
All classes are AU, BU, 36,

Trappers' Year
Good One Despite
Market Slump
Portland Oregon trappers
again enjoyed a good year dur
ing the 1955-56 trapping season
despite a small slump in the fur
market that carried throughout
the year.
Figures compiled by Chet
Kebbe, chief of furbearers, Ore
gon Game Commission, show
that 53,532 pelts brought a re
turn of more than $219,296.00
to the 1,598 licensed trappers
during the 1955-56 season. This
is a drop of approximately $53,
000.00 from the fur returns of
the previous season.
Muskrats lead in the number
of pelts taken, numbering more
than all other fur animals com
bined. A total of !6,240 muskrat
pelts brought a return to trap
pers of $35,152.80. Malheur,
Klamath, and Lane counties
were the leading muskrat pro
ducing areas.
Beaver Market Stable
The beaver market held stable
at an average price of $11.90,
bringing to the trappers $137,
242.70 for the 11,533 beaver
pelts taken. Lane county was
the big beaver producer with
1,690 taken, followed by Clatsop
where trappers took 889 pelts
and Columbia with 707 pelts.
Trappers took 2,890 mink for
a return of $39,621.90. Average
price was $13.71. Clatsop, Lane
and Douglas counties were the
top mink producers.
Highest prices were brought
by otter pelts which sold for an
average price of $20.65. How
ever, only 188 pelts were taken,
bringing to the trapper a little
more than $3,880.00.
Long haired fur animals were
lightly trapped as their pelts had
little value on the fur market
Most of the trapping efforts
were devoted to catching mink,
muskrat and beaver, all of which
brought a fair return for the
trapper's efforts.
