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

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

The bait fisherman around the

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.

Duck Hunting Season
Lenthened Ten Days
Ickci Reveals 70-Day Shooting, Ex
tends Day to Sunset; Geese Protected
WASHINGTON, July 17 (IF) Federal migratory bird hunting
regulations for 1842 were announced Thursday by Interior Sec
retary Ickes, providing a 70-day shooting season for ducks instead
of the 60 days permitted in 1941.
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

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.
