McKenzie scored its only run in the fifth inning as Portland Splits in Doublebill Br United Press International Catcher Mike Brumley re fused at first to report to Spokane earlier this season after the Los Angeles Dodgers farmed him out and the Se attle Rainiers could be sorry today that he changed his mind. Reluctant Mike fired Spo kane to a 12th inning, 2-1 vic tory over the Rainiers Thurs day night by crashing a triple and then racing home on a wild pitch. In other action, Tacoma split a twinbill with Portland to remain on top of the North ern division by four games, San Diego belted Denver, 3-3, and moved to within two per centage points of first place Dallas-Fort Worth in the Southern scramble, and Ha waii swept a pair from Salt Ijike City which now has lost 15 straight.

' The next two batters drew in tentional walks. John Boyle ' then was sent In to relieve and " delivered the wild pitch that ruined Heffner and the Suds. " The victory went to Ken Rowe, 4-3. who took over for Uorman Koch in the Uth. . Jose Santiago held Tacoma to four hits while pitching Portland to a 5-0 shutout in the opener of their twin bill, but the Giants slugged back with 11 safeties in the night cap and won it, 8-3. Tacoma's Johnny Rivas was the loser in the first game. He had rolled up five wins without a setback. Home runs by Jim Ray Hart and Jesus Alou carried lefty Jim Con stable to victory in the second game after he survived a rough first inning. LINFSCORES: pVrH.'nT" ....

Big Chance for Little People In Golf's '500' Indianapolis - IUPD - One of golf's richest tournaments, the $55,000 "500" Festival open, begins today and strangely, one of the "little people" probably will pick up the check. Only four of the top 10 money winners are in the game this year, and none of the "big three - Arnold Pal mer, Jack Nicklaus, and Gary Player - were to compete. This clears the way for some one who can use the money to earn the $10,000 first prize. It might be Doug Ford, for instance, who won the first two tournaments run on the par 71 Speedway layout on which the course record is a nine-under-par 62. Casper Out Ford this year is 41st in earnings with $7,365. The course record holder and defending champion won't be in the running, either. Billy Casper, who set the mark three years ago be fore he triumphed last year, is out with a bad hand. Tony Lema, winner at Memphis last week and second only to Nicklaus in money winnings at $44,206, fifth place money winner Julius Boros, eighth place Dan Sikes, and ninth place Liow Finstcrwald are the only play ers in the top 10 who will compete. But somebody further down the list could come through too, such as Bob Charle, Phil Rodgcrs, who had a 64 to win the pro-am event, Don Janu ary, Johnny Pott. Jack Burke, Tommy Bolt, Billy Maxwell, Dave Ragan, or Jerry Barber. SPECIAL 2 IRRIGATION RUMPS 2HR Moton ....

OREGON Oregon State's Track Team Stuns Oregon Ducks 79-66 Eugene - UTO - Oregon State's track fjrees ended 15 years of frustration Thursday with a stunning 79-66 victory over archrival Oregon, the de fending national collegiate champion. The Webfoots had won 17 dual meets in a row from the Beavers since Bill Bowerman became Oregon coach in 1948. Oregon, in fact, had tripped coach Sam Bell's Beavers 80 65 in a r.ieet earlier this year. The pivotal events Thurs day were two Oregon special ists, the mile and the two mile. Oregon State's Morgan Groth won them both, the mile in 4:04.3 and the two mile in 9:13.7, Teammate Jer ry Brady was at Groth's shoul der in the latter. Keith Forman, Oregon's sub-four minute miler, ran third in his return after be ing sidelined for two weeks by a foot injury. The Beavers swept the in termediate hurdles and picked up five points when Oregon was disqualified in the 440 relay for passing far out of its lane. Oregon had a pair of dou ble winners in Mel Renfro and Dave Blunt. Renfro won the broad jump at 24-2 and the high hurdles in 14.1 seconds. Blunt captured the 10U in 9.6 and 220 in 21.4. Three meet records fell, two to Oregon. Gerry Moro won the pole vault at 15' -j and Paul Stuber high jumped 8-1 Hi.

O; Double Out Weird One Cincinnati-IIIPII- There were these two runners coming into home plate, see, so catcher Don Pavletich simply tagged out both of them in one of the strangest double plays of the current baseball season. It happened in the sixth in ning of Thursday night's Gi ants-Reds game. With one out. the Giants had Jose Pagan on at second base and Billy O'Dell at first. Cap Peterson hit a line drive to right-center field. Fearing the ball would be caught. Pagan wailed be fore starting to run. The bell rolled to the wall and Pagan ran. Due to Pagan's late start, the Reds got the ball to the plate before he arrived. He slid, but Pavletich tagged him out. And lo and behold, right behind him came ODell. Pav letich tagged him, too. and the inning was over. Chic Calderwood Wins 10 Rounder Glasgow, Scotland - MP!) -Only the final bell saved Von Clay of Philadelphia from suffering a knockout at the hands of British and Empire light heavyweight champion Chic Calderwood Thursday night. Calderwood, who lost to Clay two years ago, won the 10-round decision. But he nearly had a knock out victory when he floored Clay under a flurry of punches in the closing seconds 01 the 10th round. Referee Frank Wilson had Just reached the count of eight when the bell rang to end the bout. It was Calderwood's 35th win in 38 fights and Clays 10th loss in 29 bout?. NO STRINGS ATTACHED!

O. 161-7t, Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DeVoss Quite a hitch has developed In the most recent attempt to pass federal legislation that would create permanent refuges out of the present Tule Lcke, Lower Klamath, and Upper Klamath National Wildlife K.'f'iges. At the pres ent time these refuges are lo cated on federal land admin istered by the bureau of rec lamation and are constantly threatened by reclamation policies to drain it for agri cultural use. There are two bills before congress, S, 784 and S. 793, that will make these refuges more perma nent. These were reported on in an earlier column, and it was indicated that S. 793 was preferred because it made wildlife management the pri mary use of the land. NO FIRING LINE Both senate bills are before the Senate committee on in terior and insular affairs and passage of the bills seems de pendent on whether or not an amendment proposed by the Klamath Basin Water Users Protective association is adopted. The amendment would have the Interior de partment sell the 6,366 acre section -f the Lower Klamath refuge that is located in Ore gon just above the California border. This is the "firing line" utilised by so many of the Oregon hunters that are partial to duck and goose hunting. CHOOSING SIDES It would seem that with the ever - shrinking quantity of nesting and feeding grounds available to ducks and geese that there would be no hunter or conservationist willing to see more of it sold into private ownership. It also would be expected that those who profit from the use of these lands, namely the large land owning corporations that farm cheap government lands, will do everything in their power lo retain and hold ex clusive use of as much of the land as possible. COMPROMISE? Similar legislation to !ltal under consideration was be fore congress last year and failed lo pass because no com promise could be worked out. It is feared that the present attempt also will fail unless someone gives in and it ap pears that the most pressure has been generated by the large land owners in the Klamath basin. This is based on the fact that at the most recent committee hearing a letter from the governor of Oregon was read that slated he recommends the sale of the "firing line". It also was stated before the committee that the Oregon game com mission is in favor of the sale. WHAT HAPPENED? The governor has written a letter lo those concerned in which he states that he under stands the game commission has reached an agreement with the Klamath Basin Water Users Protective asso ciation and will support an amendment that will sell the land but retain hunting rights for the public. The game com mission has been asked for a written declaration of its po sition and at the present time has not given an answer as to lis official position. How ever, the commission has given indication that it fears passage of the bill that would stabilize the refuges and be cause of pressure from those in favor of the amendment will not oppose it.

The loss of the "firing line" is no small thing to those who hunt clucks and geese. The guarantee of hunt ing rights is not legally de fensible, and aside from that is the fact that if the farmer owners decide lo plant row crops the ducks and geese will not use the area. It is a situa tion that requires all sports men and conservationists lo unite in an effort to pass S. 793 without such an amend ment. THE ANGLERS LOG The old timers are claiming that this is one of the biggest salmon runs the Rogue has had in many years. It may be, but il also may be that the salmon are biting more read-' tly than in past years. Only time and the fish count will tell us. Applr-iate Rive r Fishing has been poor except in the upper area above Ruch. Mostly planted trout with a few cutthroat thrown in. Illinois It I v e r The onlv part producing fish is that where the trout were planted. Some cut throat were taken on opening day up one o( the (orks. These probably were a remnant of what uai once a goodsized migratory run. Klamath River Trout fishing has been good in the upper river. Some fabulous tales arc coming out of the reservoir behind Iron gate dam. Trout of 1 1 pounds have been caught and speculation has . that they are steelhead that were trapped by construction of the dam. Rogue River Trout fishing has been spotty but the salmon fishing above Trail has been excellent for almost anyone trying. Compared to last year it could be said to be fabulous. Fish Lake Several limits are being taken every day. The larg es fish thii week whs 17 inches long. Sires run from 7 lo 22 inches, and best results are with rgu or worms while stilliishiiiK. Fly fish ing early and lute is finding some. Four Mile I. a k e Fishing has been low mostly because there have been few fishermen. Most of the fish have been 7 to 10 inches. Howard I' r s I r I e Fishing has been excellent for almost every one. Lots of Huh arc In the shal lows at the unncr end of Hip 1k and are providing great sport for the fly fishermen. Hyatt Lake Fishing has been spotty. Slillfishmg tuts been best with velvecta cheese the preferred bait. Many of the fish arc over 20 inches. A few bass are being tak en up to 13 inches, and the cat- iian re running o iq 13 inches. On worms Willow Lake Some i.r rnti-liln. and some aren't. Mostly kokanee are being taken with worms near ! the bottom doing the job. They ! are up to 16 inches long and hog fat. The weather and the swim ming are fine. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER j Diamond Lake is coming' back as one of the best fishing lakes in the stale. Everyone is limiting on rainbow 12 to 14 inches long. No small fish1 are showing and the larger! kamloops are very scarce. Oponing day was comfortable, but now the word is out the mobs will be back. j GOOD LUCK!
