OUKUON Heavy Odds on Louis Lull Fight Interest Game Chiefs Seek Education Personal Survey 'of State's Natural Resources Made. Wrestier " Britt . Really a Farmer. , Being a game commissioner doesn't guarantee that you know all about the fish and game resources of Oregon. ; That, at least. Is the attitude taken by George Aiken, member ot the commission from , On tario, la private life Aiken pub lishes the newsy and vigorous Ontario Argus. ' Aiken, who was in Klamath Falls Monday with other mem bers and officials of the com mission, believes In education The commission's trip was de- Toted to education, and many of the members visited Cas cade lakes and streams they bad never seen before. The fish and game resources of the Klamath country are re garded as ot high importance, ' With Klamatb Falls a tourist gateway to Oregon, many out- of-state sportsmen tisb. ana hunt here exclusively. Besides seeing that the Ore gon sportsman la well taken or, the commission is vitally in terested in assisting the tourist industry. Just to show the popularity of fishing In the east-of-the-mountain section, Aiken pointed out that on one Sunday alone more than four tons ot fish were taken from East lake in Deschutes county. - When that many fish go out of one lake on a Sunday, how many are taken in a season? The question is a little too huge to answer but k reveals the gigantic task the commission faces each year in restocking the streams and lakes. Aiken, who loves the out doors, admits it's a "lot of fun being a game commissioner" as long as yon don't get cracked too often by the warring fac tions Interested In various phases of Oregon'! natural as sets. Alvin Britt, -who la at the top ot his division in wrestling, is really a : farmer. The mlld poken, clean-cut champion ot the National Wrestling associa tion is the owner ot a 600-acre wheat farm in central Kansas. He calls Luray, Kansas, his home town. The only trouble with his -farm right now, the champion said, la that-: the recent wind storms in the midwest blew oft the top soil and made it a pretty tough proposition to get a good crop.. : .' .

SOUJ lanUncimisiini UJUU L a. if e r Carl Steinseifer E FALLS SHORT Schmeling Not Given Much Chance to Make Real Fight Thursday. NEW YORK, June 16. (AP) Over-confidence may not afteot the ability ot Joe Louis to make re latively short work of Max Sch meling In their 15-rouud henry- weight match In the Yankee stad ium this Thursday night but It has, relatively speaking, struck a blow at the gate receipts. With the advance sale today going beyond the half-million mark, there Is no danger of any of the parties involved losing money, but the "gate" Is likely to fall considerably short of tne goal of a million. . Apathy Affect Sale Even with a belated rush tor the box offices the aggregate is unlikely to exceed $750,000, which means that Louis and Schmeling each may have to be satisfied with a paltry 1200,000 for their ef forts to entertain anywhere from 60,000 to 70,000 onlookers, Until the publlo rush developed an unexpected million doner "gate" tor the Louis-Baer tight last September, the first since de pression days, anything like a half million seemed Just a dream to promoters. The punching power In the flats ot Louis set the new boom going, revived box office confidence and made the business million dollar conscious." Originally Promoter M 1 k Jacobs scaled the stadium to handle a 1, 250,000 house, at S40 top, for the Louis-scnmeiing oout. The least of Mike's difficulties Involved the disposal of the high est nriced tickets. It's the apathy of the 5 and f 10 customers that has affected the advance sale, Max' Chances 811m Primarily the apathy of the cash customers is traced to the neuei Schmellne has no more than Chinaman's chance to halt the sensational winning streak of the Brown Bomber. Published reports of a Jewish boycott of the tight, because Schmeling represents- Nan uerm anv. nerslsts desDlte. denials. The New York World-Telegram said bnslness houses have been circu larized with appeals to refrain from patronising the bout. To Joe . Jacobs. Jewish manager of Schmeling. this Is "all very silly, Unless the so-cauea wise money being kept under cover, tha fight will be marked by less wag ering than any big heavyweight bout in years, tney nave oeeu quoting even money that schmel ing does not last over five rounds.

Race for Leadership Grows Close in American Loop By The Associated Press While the National league seems to be pretty well resigned to a two-club race with the Car dinals and Cubs in the leading roles, and with the Giants and Pirates acting as dangerous pur- Buers, the clubs in the American outfit are taking desperate steps to keep their contest a close one. Even tboughthe ability ot the Yankees . to stay In front Is doubted and . the Red Sox haven't performed up to expecta tions, the efforts, especially at Cleveland, are becoming rather frantic. Always a tough spot for managers and players who couldn't produce, the lake-front city Is on the verge of another sbakeup nnless the Indians begin to improve their position. They now are in fourth place, nine games behind the Yankees and trailing the world-champion - Ti gers by a half game.

A couple, ot changes la the lineup were ue . today as tbe Tribe opened la series wltb the Yankees, but not because of the dissatisfaction. Hal Trosky, home run hitting first sacker, was laid on. the shelf for a week because of "a bruised shin and Billy Sul livan, the clouting young catch er, shifted to first.

Opening -an announced- drfv to regain fistic honors and the finances that go with them, the former heavyweight champion clowned, boxed and slugged through six rounds last night to win a referee's decision over Tony Souza, 220-pound Califor nia boxer. Baer, weighing 220 with ex cess poundage around the belt- line dropped Souza for tbree counts In the fifth round, but failed to follow up tbe advan tage. He also floored the coast battler In the second round. Except for the two short bursts of punching, Baer was content to Jab and duck and Souza, tried in vain to land his punches. The crowd of some 3,000 booed lustily as Souza per sisted in "hanging on." Baers timing was fair, his footwork fairly fust for an over weight man, and his punches car ried zip and thunder when he used thorn.
