Gold bar has been hitting In tho Pel ican cleanup spot tho past few games, and that may be the rea son ho is not hitting. A change may help him as it has other pro-ball players.

July 2 Three truckloads of Rainbow trout from the Klamath hatchery were planted recently In Loke county streams ,and rivers by the state game commission. The three leads comprised about 84,000 fingerlings two inches in length, part of the shipment expected for planting this year.

One load of approximately 28,000 Rainbows was dumped in to Bowers, Camp and Cotton wood creeks, another load in Coffee Pot creek and Chewau can river, and the third in Buck creek, Bridge creek and Ana river. It is expected that about 102, 000 additional Rainbows and some 20,000 Eastern Brook trout will be planted in more remote areas as the roads become ac cessible to travel.

Frick Continues June Game Between Dodgers, Phillies NEW YORK, July 2 (JP) 1 President Ford Frick of the Na tional league yesterday upheld the protest of New York Giants of their June 13 game at the Polo Grounds with the Phillies end ordered the gome continued as of the tenth inning with the score tied 3-3. The game will be continued on August 6 preceding the regu larly scheduled game, with both clubs using identical lineups as of the end of the ninth inning, insofar as is possible. Manager Mel Ott of the Giants protested on the ground that Babe Dahlgren of the Phillies had deliberately stepped in front of one of Ken Trlnkle's pitches White Sox-Outfielder Nurses Hickory Stick Hitting Streak For 26 Games With .362 Average in the ninth inning and should have been called out, retiring the side. At the time, Umpire Beans Reardon ruled that Dahl gren should remain at bat. Dahl gren then hit a double, scoring two runs and later scored him self to give the Phillies a 6-3 edge. In explaining his ruling, Frick said Reardon had ordered Trin kle to pitch and thereafter didn't call time. "Hence, the pitch was legal," said Frick. "Since Dahlgren, who was outside of the batter's box, deliberately ran in front of the pitch, which the umpires said would have been a strike, he should have been called out. By JUDSON BAILEY Since Joe DIMagglo swept through his spectacular 36-game hitting streak two years ago every other consecutive-game bitting performance has been dwarfed Into insignificance. But a little known rookie out fielder for the Chicago White Sox, Guy Paxton Curtright, right now Is nursing a hot hitting streak that has reached 26 games and it rates attention from the fans not only because it is the longest of the year but because it has made Curtright currently the leading batter in the major leagues. His average today was a glossy .362, 24 better than Vernon Stephens of the St Louis Browns, who has been the American lea gue pace-maker most of the spring. Curtright is a chunky right handed hitter whom the White Sox brought up from St. Paul this spring. He has been used as a regular only a short time and bounced into the bat leadership yesterday after he had passed the requisite 150 times' at bat. Actually, he made only one hit yesterday, but this was a lusty triple and it kept his streak going although it did not figure in the Sox' 2-0 triumph over the Washington Senators. The Cleveland Indians were given a 3-2 decision over the New York Yankees when Rookie Charley Wensloff walked two men with the bases loaded in the first inning to force in two runs and Catcher Ken Sears fumbled a grounder with two out in the eighth to let in the Indians' other run. Detroit, outhit 12-7, nosed out the Boston Red Sox 3-2 when Ned Harris singled with the bases loaded in the ninth and the St. Louis Browns humbled the Philadelphia Athletics with a 2-1 eleven-inrung victory. In the National league the Brooklyn Dodgers lost a wild 10-9 twelve-inning verdict to Cincin nati and missed a chance to move WEEKEND FISHING PORTLAND, July 2 (IP) With stream conditions report ed improving steadily through out Oregon, the state game de partment today predicted better fishing for the Fourth of July weekend.
