Youthful Moyer took the day off Thursday. He "planned to resume his daily drill grind today with two sparring sessions on his schedule. Portland leavers TTBp IPDioenix 2-1 United Press International Milt Graffs double in the bottom of the seventh inning gave the Portland Beavers a 2-1 victory over Phoenix in the last game of a PCL series in Multnomah Stadium Fri day night. Portland's Mary Kutyna hurled a three-hitter to give the Beavers their second straight win over Phoenix to take the series 2-1. Kutyna now has a 6-4 record while absorbed his seventh loss in eight decisions. Early Lad The Beavers jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first inning when Charlie Secrest drew a base on balls, advanced to second on Russ Snyder's single and scored as George Freese singled over the third base man's head. Phoenix tied the score in the sixth inning when Hyman tripled and scored on Jose Pagan's single. Graffs double in the bot tom of the seventh drove Jim Westlake, who had doubled, across with the winning tally. It was a heartbreaking loss for Hyman, who had limited the Beavers to two hits before the fateful seventh inning. The Sacramento Solons, in the midst of a grueling endur ance test, open a battle for Pacific Coast league suprem acy with Vancouver tonight. The Sacs will be playing their third doubleheader in as many nights.

Port land moved into fourth place by again defeating Phoenix. A pair of second line pitch ers were responsible for keep ing the Solons in the top spot. Roger Osenbaugh and Bob Bowman, both of whom have seen only limited action so far this year, tossed sterling ball for the Sacs.' Bowman pitched a five hit ter in the seven inning opener and Osenbaugh held the Rain iers to one run over 10 in nings despite 11 Seattle hits. Clay Dalrymple batted in both runs in the. first game with a fourth inning single. Pinch Hit Wins Eddie Kazak lined a pinch hit single to center in the 10th inning of the second game to score Milt Smith who had opened the frame with a double-to win that contest. Vancouver's Charley Metro used up all his available pitch ing as he masterminded the 10-9 win over Salt Lake. Erv Palica, the sixth Mountie pitcher, got credit for the win. An infield hit by Brooks Rob inson in the 11th drove in the winning run. R. C. Stevens, who 'had four hits in six trips, paced the Bees to an early 8-3 lead. But the Mounties came back in what is becoming regular fashion. Robinson had three clutch hits and Ron Hansen put the game into overtime with a key single. Spokane built up a 4-1 lead in the ; first four innings in the second game and then held on to outlast the Padres.' San Diego got 12 hits to seven by Spokane. Ben Wade, who came in after rookie Larry Miller had thrown only six pitches, was given the win, his first of the year. Steve" Bilko hit a two run homer for the Indians in the third and Allan Jones hit a solo shot for the Padres in the seventh.

The Cowpokes upended Arizona, 5-3, Thursday night in the finals -of the NCAA college world series. ' Ben Bancroft whacked a homer and Bruce Andrew tripled in the winning run in the seventh inning to give Oklahoma State the crown. A squeeze bunt by Connie Mc Ilvoy added an insurance run. That outburst spoiled a fine pitching performance by Ari zona's junior righthander, Dave Baldwin. He had given up five hits and a pair of runs through six innings and was enjoying a 3-2 lead. Toby Bensinger, who had been a relief specialist throughout the season, started for the Cowpokes, but needed help in the fourth from Dick Soergel. Soergel, Oklahoma State's first six-letter man in 13 years, went five and one third innings, giving up two runs and three hits. It was the second final round disappointment for Ari zona fans. In 1956, the 'fcats lost, 12-1, to Minnesota. Both Arizona and Oklahoma State had made four unsuccessful trips to the national tourney.

Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DeVoss While on my way to Ash land today I saw a young buck with his antlers still in the velvet and he looked like he might be a forked horn. Seeing him reminded me of the nearness of fall, and an other hunting season. He also reminded me "of his brothers who didn't make it through the poaching season. POACHER'S LAMENT I used, to have a neighbor who told me that the good old days were the best and that he quit fishing when they passed all those carn sarned laws so that a fel low couldn't have any fun' any more. His idea of fun .fffras to go to the river with a few sticks of dynamite, a friend and a wagon; find a spot where the salmon were ' jumping; throw in a slick or two and then reap the harvest of stunned fish. These were then laken to Grants Pass and sold. GOOD CLEAN FUN .Those were the good old days when lots of sports would salt down a lick, bait il! with tin can alarms, tie an old rocking chair in the nearby tree and spend a quiet evening with flashlight and gun wait ing for the wary blacktail. This was an easy way to get winter meat and those sight seers who are interested can still find some of these old sets near abandoned mining claims. .. LIVING IN THE PAST Our present difficulty with game law violators is that many of them are still living in the past when there was plenty for the taking, instead of now when hunters are . hunted - and some fishermen get hooked. It has been said that the game law violator is a thief and that he is stealing from all of us. With so many peo ple turning to the enjoy ments of hunting and fish ing, there certainly is a need for rules in order to pre vent the destruction of our wildlife populations. We should realize thai the rule breakers are the ones who force more rules upon ui and we will help them unless we can convince our selves of their thievery. No one would deny a starv ing man food to feed him self, but how long are we going to allow people to make money from the sale of game birds and game an imals; how long are we go ing" to let hogs catch so many fish ihey rot in the freezers? Not too long, I hope. POSSIBLE TROUT CLOSURE - The game commission is conducting a creel census of the middle section of the Rogue river in conjunction with future management plans of a possible closure of this part of the river. The creel census indicates that 90.3 per cent of the fish caught are immature steel head heading for the ocean, 5.8 per cent are hatchery rainbows, 1.7 per cent are marked summer steelhead (planted fish) and ,the rest are salmon or cutthroat trout. There were two fish per angler and 0.707 fish caught per angling hour. The commission believes that, we can't fish for steel head at both ends of the life cycle and since the large, ma ture fish provides the most sport, fishing for babies will have to go. Don't worry, the middle section is below Sav age Rapids. . . NO SALMON BELOW Reports indicate there are very few salmon in evi dence below Savage rapids and total run now stands at about 10,000 over Gold Ray dam. The water tem perature there last week got to 63 degrees, which is usually reached in July. The man who probably knows best claims we might get 2,000 more if we're lucky. If this is true, I would like to see a closure by the first of July at the latest. THE ANGLER'S LOG The game commission planted 35,000 trout, some al most 12 inches long, in the Rogue and tributaries, start ing up at the North fork down to Grants Pass. . These fish have been giving the tourists and frustrated salmon anglers a hot time during this week. Let's hope they last awhile. Lake of the Woods Has been hotter than a firecracker., Lots . of fish over 15 inches. Green flat fish and orange triple-teaser are doing the business. ' Fish Lake Has been pretty good with lots of limits. Still fishing with single. eggs is the best best. Fish are averaging inches with i one or two 10 inchers in every limit. . - Klamath Lake . Has been picking up. Everybody is getting fish. Mrs. Charlene Stephenson of Medford made the big fish board . at Harrixnan's with a hV pounder. Caught on a Freak. Best lures are Andy Reekers, flatfish and Freaks. Fast trolling works best on all but the flatfish. Flyfishing at the mouth of Harriman's creek is good in the evening. Willow Creek Is slow during the day. Nice catches are made early and late ona trolled fly. The fish are active in the evening but seem to prefer a Royal coachman trolled straight. Crescent Lake Very good for Kokanee using Spin-n-glo or worms in front of a flasher. Diamond Lake Fishing is only fair. Still fishing with single eggs is doing best. Kamloops are nearing the end of their spawning activities. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER' The Army engineers are going to give us a look at their preliminary report on the Rogue river on June 25 at 8 p.m. in the Josephine county courthouse at Grants Pass. Let's hope their plans include plenty of water, plen ty of flood control and little harm to the fishery.
