fev - Fishin's Br WALTON IZAA1C ' For a while, fishermen wilt have to get used to registering into tome of their fishing spots. Fortunately, the fishing In this area la Just now coming into its own. The fishing In the UPPER KLAM ATH LAKE has never been bet ter. Contrary to general opinion, the fish are in rery good shape. Rocky Point and Harriman lodge report good fishing and the fish caught are running big. Trolling is by far the most popular means of luring the fish. Jigger wobblers are the No 1 boys In the fish parade. Andy Reekers are probably next in line with quite a few of the boys using flashers and worms, SEVEN-MILE creek, WOOD river, and WILLIAMSON river have produced largest fish to date. A 16-pound rainbow . is the largest reported with any number running around six to 10 pounds. Fishing at FISH LAKE has had a shot in the arm and limits are. being taken on bait. Eastern brook are running small, about eight inches. Some silversides on small-bladed flashers and worms. DIAMOND LAKE fishing Is now worth the trip in. "Flat fish," the crown prince of the fishing lures, rules the roost The fly fishing in the summer home section has been very good. Flashers and worms ara still the popular pastime and prob ably account for the largest per centage of fish. The bait fisherman around the buoy line still get their share. - ' Don't forget to register into the area in which you intend to fish or camp. 1 Share your rubber and "Take a boy fishing.", . G. Pass To Oppose Pelicans Klamath Nine Expected to ' Win Sunday Doubleheader The Grants Pass Merchants, stronger than ever fortunate lyplay host to Manager Ernie Bishop's Klamath Pelicans this weekend-in a Sunday double- header-which will probably de termine nothing that hasn't al ready been demonstrated. Most ly that GP is a chronic last place club. The stumbling Merchants have won but two games in 14 attempts this year, both from Dorris. The Pelicans currently rest in second place with nine victories and five whippings. Hurlers for the Bishop nine will probably be the same as started against Medford last week, namely Virg Haynes and Ken Benham.' Benham, former Willamette U. mainstay, dropped both tiffs to the Craters on ninth inning scores. The Merchants recently have teen bolstered by a couple of ex- Silverton players from the Ore gon State league but even with the added talent aren't expected to give the Bigbills much tussle. While Klamath and Grants Pass tangle, the league-leading Craters clash with third place .Dorris on the Lumberjack field in a pair which may reduce the valley nine s margin. NO BOOS CAMP RUCKER, Ala., July 17 iTP) Here's a hall player who went sprawling to miss an easy out and nobody booed. He is Rex W. Beasley, man ager of the 81st division artil lery officers' softball team. With the score tied, 3-3, against head quarters officers, Outfielder Beasley reached for a high one, and went ka-whup on his face over a pile of brush. Artillery lost, 4-11, but nobody squawked because . . . Manager Beasley is Brigadier General Rex W Beasley. NEW YORK, July 17 UP) Lefty Al Smith of the Cleveland Indians was slated to pitch against the New York Yankees today and his appearance should bring back sad memories to one Yankee Joe DiMaggio. It was just a year ago tonight that Smith stopped DiMaggio's 66- game batting streak, with a lit tle help from Jim Bagby in the late -innings. Today DiMaggio will risk a new streak that has reached 13 games. LEATHERNECK GRADES The various grades in the ma rine corps, enlisted and commis sioned, correspond to those in the U.

Duck hunting will begin in the northern lone on September 36, intermediate zone October 15 and southern tone, Novem ber 1. While liberalizing the restrictions on hunting ducks, which showed a vast increase in num Tulelake Bird Grounds Held Large Enough TULELAKE Sportsmen who come to Tulelake for the goose and duck hunting will find a hunting area large enough to provide for all who come, re gardless of the fact that the new ly organized military zone will cut off some corners of the area formerly hunted over, it was an nounced this week by B. R. Fau sett, secretary of the Tulelake Butle Valley Sportsman's asso ciation following a meeting Tuesday night in the office of Charles D. Weise. Members of the association are cooperating with officials of the War Relocation Authority and army authorities in an ef fort to establish definite boun daries of the military zone be fore opening date of the season. Provision for reestablishment of grounds for the association traps will also be made in the near future. The traps were lo cated east of the peninsula, now well within the restricted area. Election of new officers was tabled until a larger attendance turns out. Pressure of farming and other activities was respon sible for a small attendance this week. Laabs Batting Spree Aids Browns Over A's Little St. Louis Fielder Continues Streak; Yankees Extend Edge to IVx By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sports Writer The biggest batting spree of the season is now being staged by little Chet Laabs of the St. Louis Browns and, brother, when he hits people forget all about the complaint that the ball is deader this year. . In the last six days he has in 16 tallies with amazing raids delphia. His total productions- all last year for the Browns was 15 homers and 59 runs batted in, but with his recent surge he already has brought his mark for this season to 15 circuit clouts and 58 runs driven in. Yesterday he drove in four runs to beat the Athletics again, hitting two homers, each with a mate aboard, to help Al Hol lingsworth win 5-1. Laabs' im petus has boosted the Browns to an even .500 per centage and a tie with the Detroit Tigers for fourth place. Detroit stumbled to its fifth straight defeat and eighth in nine games last night at Wash ington. The Tigers made six errors and lost 6-5 in ten innings even though the Senators were held to five hits. - : In the meantime the New York Yankees boosted their first place margin to 7 J games by belting the Cleveland Indians 8-5 while the Chicago White Sox nosed out Boston 3-2. Ernie Bonham pitched seven-hit ball for the Yanks' fifth straight triumph, but served up homers to Les Fleming and Oris Hockett. At Chicago the wrought-up Chicago Cubs and Brooklyn Dodgers divided a doubleheader in approximately five hours of paying strict attention to base ball. The Cubs made 14 hits and took the first contest 7-0 with Lon Warneke helping Lefty John Schmitz in the ninth. Then Brooklyn battled back in the nightcap to win 2-1 when Arky Vaughn pinch singled, Pete Reiser doubled and Joe Medwick singled to account for two runs in the seventh after Lou Stringer had homered for Chicago in the fifth. Mel Ott shook up his New York Giants at Pittsburgh, send ing reserve First Baseman Babe Young to centerfield for the first time in his life, and old Carl Hubbell conjured up a four hit pitching masterpiece that stopped the Pirates 3-1. It was Hub's third win and he had a two-hit shutout till the ninth. The Phils, led by Danny Lit whilcr, who batted in three runs and scored twice, topped the St. Louis Cardinals 4-3 in ten in nings. Cincinnati took a 7-6 decision from the Boston Braves, even though Ernie Lombardi hit his second homer in two days and made three other safeties against his old teammates. AEF HEARS FIGHT NEW YORK Boys in the armed forces throughout the world will sit in on the 10-round T a m i Mauriello-Red Burman heavyweight fight at Madison Square Garden, July 23. A de scription will be short-waved to .Ireland, Honolulu and Australia. bers last year, Ickes tightened rules for the protection of geese, doves and other birds that have not increased in popu lation. Duck hunting hours will run from sunrise to sunset, instead of from sunrise to 4 p. m. as formerly, and legally killed birds may be possessed for 30 days after the close of the sea son. Instead of 20 days. Regulations governing bag and possession limits of ducks re main unchanged except that a new provision makes the pos session limit on the first day of hunting conform to the dally bag limit. The regulations reduced the bag limits on geese and includ ed other special safeguards, since investigations had shown a decline in goose populations other than the blue eecse. c Front Runners y The AwooUttd PrtM AmeriMit League Bt tine Gordon, Htw York, Mil iUmi, Boston, .iw.
