HBBWB UNLIMITED DUCKS - Tim lamest breeding stock in many years is expected to re- t u r n to Canadian nesting grounds this spring, Ducks Un limited offers. Tlnrlca Unlimited, vou know. Is the official publication of the organization ot ine same name, n organization probably more responsible than any other sin gle agency for wildfowl restora tion and conservation. The hug return is foreseen because of last fall's smaller bags which were due. In most areas, to extended Indian sum mers which stymied a million American wildfowlers. In the central flyway. gunners wait ed until Norember 23 for a freeseup to sweep down from the northwest and chase southward a good portion of the duck flight which had been dallying on northern marshes. In most eastern "states the main flight was only beginning when seasons closed. The same was true in Pacific flyway areas. " Abnormal fall rains also con spired to reflood dry marshes and cause a wide dispersal of flights. . - The first quarter issue of the wildfowl mag presents an excellent quartet of main migration routes as deter mined by duck banding records.- Four main flight lanes wing through the Pacific fly way from Alaska to South America. - 'One' follows the coast out lines in its complete path. A second branches off the coast route at Portland, passes through Klamath and continues down the Sacramento valley. A third, on the flyway's eastern fringe, veers westward from upper Idaho and hits the Klamath area. A fourth cuts directly west from southern Idaho and hits Klamath before turning south again. The southern Oregon high plateau country is the only spot on the flyway where three flights converge. A Missouri gunner draws a press from the publication for bagging three ducks on a single day which were each from different Canadian marsh. One was banded at Rogina. Sask.. another at Min lstik lake, Alts- and the third at Big Grass marsh. Man. . . . Tnwitv-thnw new DU areas wen . created in Canada last year, according to the mag. They brought the total of prot ects under waterfowl develop ment to 960,940 acres.

" - - , NICHOLSON LOPSIDED AVALON, Calif. When Con nie Mack gave up on Bill Nich olson as a prospective big lea guer, he threw him in with $25,000 to get Outfielder Dee Miles from Chattanooga. Kiki Cuyler, then managing the Look outs, took Nicholson in hand and by mid-season had sold him to the Cubs for $35,000. But Cuyler, now a Cub coach, says Nicholson is strictly a fast ball hitter and, after the pitch ers hit their stride, Bill is lost. Last season he batted in 51 runs in the first 50 games, and 47 in the last 97 games. Cuyler hopes to do something about that.

Pelicans Drop to OSC Rooks In Last Home Game, 49-30 Bocchi Tops Klamath In Scoring With 11 By BOB LEONARD Nm-HaM Spertt Editor An Oregon State Rook quintet superior In every department, overwhelmed Klamath's District 3 champion Pelicans, 49-30, on the KUHS floor last night. Topped by the all-around play of blonde Erland Anderson, big Rook center,, and the one-handed basket weaving of ex-Pelican Marion Reginato, -the - little Beavers were never in danger. They led at the quarter, 9-4, were in the van at the half, 24-13, and paced at the third pole 37-18. Save for the shooting of Slim Jim Bocchi the leadership of Captain Gene Love and the occasional sensationalism of tow--headed Ingvar Swanson the KlamathS were never in the contest. Bocchi bagged four from the field and three from the foul line for 11 points to top the Pelicans. Big Ingvar opened the tiff with a paralyzing left-hander from off to one side and for a few short minutes It looked like a game. But Reginato evened the count with a - southpaw swisher of his own and Mickey Brophy and Spike-Johnson com bined for three points. - After Cox's short one, black shocked Ethan Dale canned a pair of gifts and Anderson counted a two-pointer as the quarter ended. Anderson, Reclge, Johnson and Finley began to hit as the Rooks picked up momentum in the sec ond period. Bocchi's five points paced the Pelicans as Cox and Swanson added four more. During the period the junior Beavers demonstrated to a good sized house a beautiful passing and waiting game that paid off in setups. The Klamaths, mean while, were hitting only a min ute percentage of their at tempts. A rash of subs poured off the Rook bench midway in the third as the Klamaths dropped farther behind but Dale's six points and Anderson's half-dozca held the invaders on their pace. Bocchi. Swanson and Bellotti bucketed five for the Pelicans. In the final period, each side holed an even dozen. Lee Hunter inserted in the place of lankv George Brosterhous, gave the hometowners an added under- tbe-basket drive which helped nullify the visitors' early com mand of the wicket. Bocchi added four to his earl ier seven and Swanson, Hunter, and Love shoved in another eight. Dale topped the Rooks with six during the last quarter. Throughout the uneven en counter, the Pelicans were hampered by the lack of more than two scoring threats. Bocchi and Swanson were the only real dangers to the Oregon Staters while Love, usually good for close to ten, holed only one bas ket in 14 shots. The Rooks, meanwhile were firing and hitting from all angles, corners, and guns. Six of them canned five points or more. Only Guard Hal Marten dale was blanked. Reginato piled up six on three excellent one handers despite a badly injured knee. The Rooks holed 18 baskets In 50 tries for an average, of .353. The Klamaths sank only 11 out of 48 for .229. It was the last home stand for the Pelicans who Monday leave Klamath's District 3 Champions fersr ---1 ?vA & i A which started the 1941-42 season the district 3 championship and for the annual state tourney at Salem. It was their fifth loss in 21 starts during the 1941-42 sea son.
