Major Leagues IVlum On Hew York Area For Second Ball Club By MILTON RICHMAN Uniled Press Sport Writer New York HP) The major leagues caused a surprise at their meetings Saturday by refusing to approve a new rule on club territory, but top officials said the action did not mean barring New York as the future site of a Nation al league team. The National and American leagues, meeting first sepa rately and then jointly, had been expected to give "cut and dried" approval to a rule proposal drawn up by a spe cial four-man committee. That rule would have for bidden the location of two major league teams in cities of less than two million pop ulation. It also would have or dered that the teams playing in the same city have their ball parks located at least five miles apart. But objections to the pro posal sprang up in both the leagues and the vote was to table it for more study. Base ball commissioner Ford Frick said the committee on terri tory will continue to hold meetings and may be expand ed .to six members. The rejection meant that the present rule on territory changes remains in force for the present, each league vot ing separately when a team wishes to move into an al ready occupied area. If the leagues disagree, Frick re tains the deciding vote and he indicated today he will always vote in favor of "open" territory. "I would oppose anything where an effort would be made to try to close the door," said Frick. "But this should not depend on the whim of the commissioner. We must not rest until we construct a rule we can live with." It was learned that Lou Fish Lake Treatment Possibility Treatment of Fish lake for eradication of trash fish is tentatively planned this year, Kenneth G. Denman, state game commission chairman reported yesterday. Whether the rehabilitation is undertaken depends on what Is done concerning other such projects proposed. The rotenone treatment of Fish lake might not be possible un der the circumstances, he in dicated. If the commission does see the way clear to go ahead with the project, a later order Is anticipated raising the bag limit at the lake. That would permit the taking of as many fish as possible before the lake is "poisoned." Fish lake was treated about six years ago, restocked and closed for a season. Some of the trash fish (roach), how- ever, escaped suffocation. Den man stated that the roach again are seriously interfer ing with trout growth. The commission chairman said that fisher division men plan new- techniques over the spring holes in the lake which gave some of the roach refuge. In the treatment process ex isting trout as well as roach will be killed. Perinl, owner of the Milwau kee Braves, had demanded at the National league meeting that New York be expressly declared an open territory at this time. Frick favors such a declaration. For the first time, Frick of ficially recognized the trans fer of the Dodgers to Los An geles and the Giants to San Francisco, effective Feb. 1. The commissioner said that the National league will have until Feb. 15 to control the New York area, after which a prospective club wishing to move to New York could do so by obtaining permission from both leagues or by get ting Frick's vote in case of a stalemate. At the same time, N.L. President Warren Giles dis closed he has invited New York City representatives to a meeting next July for the purpose of reporting what progress they have made to where a prospective new franchise may be located. Men Plan National Crossing Sacramento (IP) A two man relay marathon team from Stockton sprinted into Sacramento Saturday to wind up a 50-mile warmup run for a crosscountry race. The duo, running under sponsorship of the Stockton Chamber of Commerce, made the run in five hours, 43 min utes, winning the race from another three-man team by only three minutes. Victors of the race were Jack Marden, 23, and Charles Curtis, 21, former holders of the world's ten-mile record established last November in '44 minutes, 47 seconds. The challengers were Jack Briner, 18, Jerry Gleason, 22, and College of Pacific Pro fessor Arner Gustafson, who ran with the boys for the final 25 miles. ' A third team not actually in competition was com prised of Stockton Mayor Harvey Stull, outgoing Cham ber President J. A. Simpson and incoming President Harry Goodfriend. The cross-country run will be attempted by Marden and Curtis in June. They will try to make the run in 80 days.

Season for lakes, reservoirs and their tributairies, with some excep tions, within national forest boundaries in the Cascade mountains will be May 24 through Oct. 5. The month later than usual opening for the river systems designated is aimed at permit ting larger escapment to the ocean of downstream migrat ing yearling salmon and steel head. Game department staff members recommended the move to protect the mirgating fish, which are a decreasing resource in the face of increas ing anglers. Four Lakes Early In the way of compensation for the Rogue area, the com mission called for trout seas ons to start on April 26 at Lake of the Woods and Fish, Willow and Squaw lakes. Also legal sized hatchery raised trout will be held for release a month later than usual to povide larger and better fish for anglers. While the late opening met with some opposition, princi pal from guides and merchant interests, the game commis sion decision had the support of such agencies as the Jack son County and Ashland chap ters of the Izaak Walton league, the Grants Pass Rod and Gun club and the Shady Cove chapter of the Oregon Sportsmen club.

All three ring officials had Sonny Boy ahead in the TV fight at the New Capital arena Friday night when he lost on technical knockout in the fifth round because of an eight-stitch cut, high on his upper left eyelid. "I chased him all over the ring, and he had to butt me to stop me," said 22-year-old Williams. "Maybe the butt was accidental but it did the trick. I'll watch out for his head if he'll meet me in a ti tle fight." Ernie's eyelid was nicked in a neaa collision in me third round and it began to trickle blood in the fourth; and another head collision in the fifth caused it to bleed profusely.

Aim is to prevent trash fish infestations which have resulted in costly reha bilitation programs. The commission this year projects the rotenone treat ment of some six lakes. In most cases the trash fish in festation has resulted from release by fishermen of these fish in the lakes. The regulation reads: "Living, dead or preserved fish or parts, thereof, exclus ive of salmon eggs, may not be taken, used or held for use as bait for angling in any wa ter, provided that living or dead herring, candlefish, sar dines, anchovies and cottids (bullheads) may be used in the Pacific ocean and tide waters and also that dead fish or parts thereof may be used in the Gerber, Drews and Owyee reservoirs in the main stem of flood plain lakes or sloughs of the Willamette and Columbia rivers and in the Snake river main streat."
