June 13 (PI Friday over proposed dovetailing state game commission opened a With argument set for today, western portion of the stato indicated they are In general agree ment witn tne proposal. Eastern The deer season usually starts around September 20 and runs to October 29 with th elk sea son running from around No vember 1 to IB. Under the new proposal the deer season would be extended about one week and the elk season moved up propor tionately. The opposition view Is that the number of hunters In the woods at one time would be in creased, that animals would not be In good condition, that long double season In warmer weath er would Increase spoilage of meat. Western support contends that the dovetailed season would be better from the standpoint of tire and gasoline conditions, that more deer and elk would be killed In areas where they have Increased most, that many per sons would ba enabled to lay in bigger supplies of meat for cold storage. In addition to the hunters' ar guments the commission will hear viewpoints of the army and forest service which concern military factors, forest fire and range conditions.

By Th Associated Press The San Francisco Seals are about tho happiest lot of base ball players in the Pacific Coast league today. They took two games from Seattle last night to climb into fourth place and tho upper divi sion for the first time since they slumped to the bottom of the heap early In the season. Tho wins, both by a 3 to 2 margin as was a San Francisco victory on the previous night, dropped the former league-leading Rainlcrs, three-time coast champions, into sixth position behind Oakland. Seattle scored in the first and last frames of the first game, a seven-inning affair which fea tured a pitching tilt between Sam Gibson, veteran Seal hurl er, and Rainier chuckers, Ed Cnrnctt and Al Libke. San Francisco batsmen paced by Ferris Fain, who has been in a batting slump, bunched five hits for their tallies in the sec ond and third innings to drive Carnctt from the mound. The Oaks blanked San Diego 5 to 0 in a twilight game at the Padres' lane behind the five-hit twirling of Jack Salveson. At Sacramento, Blix Donnel ly, the league strike-out king held the powerful, Los Angeles Angels to five hits as the Solons took their second straight game from tho Angels, 3 to 1. Freddy Gay, Hollywood pitch er who has lost his last six games, turned out a seven-hitter as his teammates blasted Port land for 16 hits and a 9 to 3 win. Joe Orrell started on the mound for the Beavers and gave up 13 hits and seven runs be fore Lee Stlne took over in the eighth. Weekend Fishing Prospects PORTLAND, June 13 (m The state game commission re ported improving trout fisning today. Spinner and bait anglers have reported excellent catches in the Nehalem river, a bulletin said. The report by counties: Douglas Good catches of perch in the Tahkenitch lake. Trout fishing poor in western Douglas because of high water. but fishing improving in the Urn- pqua river district. Streams are a little high for this time of year, but aro clearing and trout are taking ' files. Gray Hackle, Royal Coachman and Bucktall Coachman files best. Salmon eggs are still the best bait. Josephine Fishing conditions on Grants Pass section of Rogue river greatly improved in last few days. Best salmon fishing just below Savage Rapids dam. Salmon plentiful in all sections, although tho water is still a little high and a trifle discolored. Beat fishing of the week was at Ag ncss. Mining operations ceased fo rthe season on the Illinois and that tributary is coming in clear. diluting muddy water of Rogue and making good salmon fishing for a half mile below its con fluence. Trout fishing also im proving generally. - Klamath Trolling good at Link river, and at Klamath lake points of Harrlman Point, Rocky Point and the mouths of the Wood and Williamson rivers. Miller lake fair trolling, bait used behind flashers. Odell and Crescent lakes fair to bait and trolling, North and south forks of Sprague river good to bait eggs, Seven Mile and Wood riv ers fair to bait fishing eggs and worms.

Strengthened greatly by the acquisition of three new players, all of whom were signed thU week by Pete Lesmeister, persistent scout and president of the Pelican Baseball club, the Klamath Falls nine will tangle with the Grants Pass Merchants tomorrow afternoon at Recreation park in a Paul Bernadou day double header that will present an excellent opportunity for the local semi-pros to take over undis- putcd possession of first place In Oregon-California loop stand ings, provided the Dorris Lum berjacks and the Medford Cra ters split their two-game series.

He leaves for duty in the United States navy .Sunday night.- A Whitman college hurler, Ken Beham, who won 15 and lost four for the Missionaries this year, is one of the Pelican newcomers; and, according to Manager Ernie Bishop, he may do some mound duty during to morrow's games. Virgil Gross, catcher for the 1941 Klamaths in Oregon State league competi tion, is scheduled to arrive here Saturday night along with Beham. He undoubtedly will get in a bit of backstopplng if arrival is not delayed. . Third new diamond perform er who will be seen in a Bigbill uniform for the first time tomor row is Bud Larson, 18-year-old youngster from Mollala, Ore., who played shortstop and batted .442 for his high school team this spring. He is n left-handed hitting baseballer whose big bat is expected to add strength to the Pelican offense. Bishop Saturday nemed Virg Haynes, undefeated pitcher of this year's contingent, to one of the starting assignments tomor row with Van Driesche or Be ham billed for the other opening hillock job. Dave Dixon and Virg Gross will divide the ac tion behind the plate with How ard Phillips in. reserve. Infield lineup is likely to be juggled slightly because Paul Crapo, slugging first baseman. may not be m uniform for the Sunday engagements.. Present arrangements call for Bishop at first base. Earl Hampton on sec ond, Bob Yancey at third and Larson at shortstop. Outfield positions will be filled by Mario Pisan in center. flanked by Paul Bernadou in left and either Hi Hatfield or Roy tsramora in right field. Manager Fred Hofer of the last-place Grants Pass aggrega tion had not named his lineup up to Saturday. The Merchants will probably field a youthful group composed principally of prep school players. Pelican batsmen are sure to face the slants Of a southpaw mounds- man named Martlndale, who let the locals down with three hits and two runs in six innings at Grants Pass late last month only to lose, 2-0. . . 2 Top Teams Tangle in Inverness TOLEDO, O., June 13 (TO The stage was set today for some scrambling of standings in the eighth annual $7650 Inver ness four-ball matches, as the fourth and fifth rounds brought together the top two-man teams In the birdie barrage.
