H. Van Winkle said today in ruling that the state game commission is powerless to extend tho seasons. Tho dcur season will last until October 31. If the ban lasts until that time, there will bo no deer hunting this year. The gamo commission wanted to extend the season, but tho attorney general ruled that a 1025 law deprived tho commission of Its authority to open up closed seasons. The commission bannod all hunting because of the sorious forest fire hazard. Governor Spraguc, asserting he wants to permit hunting as soon as pos sible, said he would havo a con ference today with State For ester N. S. Rogers to determine if the ban con be lifted soon. Tho governor sold, however, that he could not sec any pos sibility of lifting the ban with in the next few days. Sportsmen were hopeful that tha ban would be lifted In time for tho elk and bird seasons, which open during October, and that a few days of deer hunt ing would bo permitted before tho season closes at the end of Octobor. .

Game Group Buys Land For Public EVERETT, Oct. 2 (W) Offic lals of ' the Snohomish county Sportsmen's association have an nounced the purchase of approxi mately 150,000 acres of land known as tho North Bay Duck Flats and Snaggy Point on South Bay along the south fork of the Skagit river. This property, one of the best in the northwest for hunting of migratory watorfowl, will be turned over to the general public for an open hunting grounds, to be used free of charge by any one during the hunting season. The area, filled with sloughs and small waterways, offers every type of duck shooting and tha Snaggy Point area is out standing for geese. Rail, coot and snipe are found in some parts. The move was made by the sportsmen's group, leaders state, as private clubs and groups have taken over so much of the tide- lands that the thousands of in dividual hunterss now have trou ble finding a hunting ground.

Yet other clubs looked twice and began doing it. None ever equalled the Cards, how ever. Their policy remained one of making ball players; not buy ing 'em. And now that Sam and Branch have decided to come to the friendly parting of ways they could have found no more fit ting time to close the books. Their sixth pennant-winning team, made up almost entirely of youngsters off the "farms," is in the midst of a ding-dong world scries and given an out side chance of ending the New York Yankees' long reign as un beatable world champions. Buy it througn the want-ads. Oregon Sport Notes By FRED HAMPSON Associated Press Staff Writer Bud Forrester, the former Oregon State college advance man for sports but now a press association worker at San Fran cisco, was In Portland this week with a warning not to sell Cali fornia short on the basis of one game. Tho Golden Bears, who are In Corvallis tomorrow for a try against the Rose Bowl Beavers, squeezed out a 6-0 decision from the St. Mary's Collegians (not Pre-Fllghters) last Saturday. For a team that had considerable backing for the championship, it was a sorry start or at least so a ' lot of bay district writers thought. The Bears won by vir tue of a blocked punt. But it didn't reflect California power, vouchsafed Forrester on his arrival In the northwest a few days later. The Californians Just weren't quite ready, he continued. They were ragged and -had first-game jitters and otherwise flunked out, but they still won the game and they're still one of the clubs If not THE club to beat for the pennant. Bud may be suspected of try ing to needle the Oregon Staters with these words of Bear power but he sounded sincere. Forrester was impressed by Jim Jurkovich, the thin-skulled Californlan who was continually suffering concussions until special steel helmet was devised for him, and by Frank Porto, a third-year player who in the past has been ordinary but who suddenly has . blossomed into great performer. Continuing his evaluation, Forrester said the Bear line men were only fair against St. Mary's but that probably is de ceiving. Coach Jim Phelan's Gaels kept them off balance all afternoon and the lesson may prove valuable. Summing it up, Forrester pre dicted that if California gives off another effort like last Sat urday's, Oregon State will take the Bears to the cleaners. But, he interpolates . vehemently, there isn't much chance of a team like the Bears laying two eggs in a row. A Tennessee thief stole an an tique bed. Maybe the police will catch him napping. .

Spokane hotels are so crowd ed, the coach said, that he pre ferred to keep the team together in a railway coach for the night after the game. He said Wes Deist, a quarter back, would not be included in the traveling squad due to a knee infection which also held him on the bench during the Oregon State game last week.

Susick, a senior from North Bend, Ore., was the Huskies' field general against College of Pacific, and Welch Is inclined to believe he will be of more value in that role than in his old spot at right halfback. Two Vichy French Ships Intercepted CAPETOWN, Union of South Africa, Oct. 2 (JP) British and South African . warships and South African planes have inter ceptcd two Vichy French ships which escaped from Madagascar during the British invasion of that French island, naval au thorities announced today. The ships were the Marechal Gallieni, which has been escort ed to a South African port, and the Admiral Pierre, which was scuttled. The latter formerly was the Greek ship Ylannis and was seized by the French in a Madagascar port High Negro Crime Rate Contradicted PORTLAND, Oct. 2 (AP) Claims that crime among negroes in Portland is dispro portionate were contradicted by 75 representatives of Portland protestant churches and social agencies last night. The group adopted a resolu tion which asserted "no evi dence can be produced so far as we can ascertain to support this position (public claims of high crime rate among negroes). The delegates asked the Port land Council of Churches com mittee to petition federal hous ing officials for "adequate pro visions ... to house negro de fense workers in Portland. TIMELY GIFT INDEPENDENCE, MO (AP) The courthouse clock may run again, if Chairman R. S. S. Offutt of the scrap drive said Triple With wartlmo manpower shortage hitting many oollog football squads, triple throats such as Bob Erickson of th Uni versity of Washington are particularly handy. Smallest turnout at tha Seattle institution in years numbered no more than 39. one contribution was 300 feet of cable, exactly the kind" and amount needed to replace that which rusted off the old clock. City and county officers are not sure, though, how to get it from the scrap pile or whether they should take it If they could. .
