MONDAY, NOVEMBER 28. I960 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. ORE. B 3 National Leaguers Reject Interloop Play Proposition Louisville, Ky. IUPD The American league Is stuck. And there were no more sorry spectacle than the glum group of American leaguers who stood around hotel head quarters of the baseball meet ings today vainly trying to work their way out of the expansion pickle they now are in. Turned down flatly by the National league in their com promise nine team, inter league play proposal, AL offi cials conceded in blunt but scrubbed-up language that they must now fish or cut bail. "You might say several pos sibilities are open to us," said one disgusted American leaguer. "And you can also say that which ever possibility turns out to be the most rea- Waltonians Recommend More Escapes for Deer On Howard Prairie Canal Salem-IUPD-The Oregon Di vision of the Izaak Walton League of America Saturday approved 18 resolutions in cluding one calling for a long er closure of the commercial salmon fishing season on the Columbia river next summer to allow more fish to escape to spawning beds upstream. The league recommended a closure in 1961 from 6 p.m. Friday, July 7, to 12 noon on Aug. 7. The league estimates this would permit another 50,000 steelhead to escape above Bonneville Dam. The recommended closure amounts to about 18 days longer than in 1960. Dates for the closure will be determin ed in mid-January at a joint public hearing by the Oregon Fish commission and Wash ington Fisheries department. Tentatively, the meeting has been set for Vancouver, Wash. To accomplish greater es capement, the resolution asks the cooperation of the govern ors of Oregon and Washing ton State Fisheries Depart ment, Oregon Fish commis sion, and game departments of Idaho, Washington and Ore gon. Support of recommenda tions of the Legislative In terim committee on Natural Resources include one calling for creation of a state recrea tion department and consolid ation of the hydroelectric com mission and state engineer with the State Water Re sources board. A resolution backing mer ger of the state fish and game commissions was voted down. But the league earlier went on record favoring the move so its position is no changed. Other recommendations: -More federal money for sewage treatment to "assure a constructive pollution abate ment program" in Oregon. -State and federal laws put ting responsibility for full de termination of safety of pesti cides on the manufacturer and liability for proper appli cation on the user. -Matching federal funds for state agencies to continue re search of water pollution "at an acceleration rate." -Accelerated action by state fish or game officials to con trol seals in coastal streams due to loss of fish. -A state law to require minimum safety requirements for those 18 and under before they can get a hunting license. -More escape devices for deer on the Howard Prairie delivery canal on the Talent irrigation project. -A resolution urging the president, congress, and sec retaries of interior and agri culture to assure that their subordinate officials not ap pointed under civil service are named on the basis of "proven professional compe tence In scientific natural re sources management as well as administrative ability with out reference to party affilia tion." The resoluton asks the same for appointments to de partment heads. SEARS AUTOMOTIVE Mid-Week Specials fTir SERVICE .11 I I SPECTACULAR I I TIIFS ft WFn ONLY each O Lube Job O Oil Change 5 Qts.

Ridiculed and poked fun at from all sides because of their fumbling efforts to put a 10- club structure into operation by 1961, some American league officials even were going so far as to say they deserved the public humilia tion they are suffering. General Manager Frank Lane of the Cleveland In- dians, however, feels the AL will go through with its an nounced intention of having or placing a team in Los An geles next season despite the objection of Dodger owner Walter O'Malley and. other NL officials. Lane thinks this will be ac complished by changing rule 1, which covers expansion procedure. Commissioner Ford Frick already has called a meeting in New York Wednes day with league presidents Warren Giles and Joe Cronin for the purpose of drawing up a rule. Stilt Sparkles In Tussle at LA United Press International Big Wilt Chamberlain made his first appearance of the National Basketball associa tion season Sunday night in Los Angeles and gave a pa tient crowd of 10,706 some thing to be happy - and sad- about. The Philadelphia Warriors star turned in a dazzling per formance by scoring 41 points and snagging 27 rebounds that had the partisan Los Angeles Lakers fans spellbound. The only rub for Lakers fans was that Chamberlain's high-scoring performance led the visitors to a 113-106 vic tory over the home team -after fans had waited an hour and a half for the game to start because the Warriors had transportation troubles and were late in arriving from Philadelphia. In the only other NBA game Sunday night, the New York Knickerbockers beat the Cin cinnati Royals 122-118 in over time in Cincinnati despite a 42-point performance by the Koyais' Oscar Robertson.
