Hunters Split Over Combining
Deer, Elk Season at Game Meet
PORTLAND. June 13 (PI
Friday over proposed dovetailing

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. Tho gamo

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.

Choke your grip, moving the

Hit the ball before it hits
