NEW YORK, July 26 OF) A spree grew in Brooklyn Monday night as the artless Dodgers blasted nine runs in the seventh inning to beat Pittsburgh's Pi rates, and the fans hummed - ''Dixie" along the banks of the Gowanus in honor of Outfielder Walk., who hit the game-clinching homer. ' Today, however, after yester day's 14-6 loss to Chicago the 22nd defeat in 25 starts for the "Durocher Dopes" the backers of the.

Chavez proposed that congress return August 1 prepared to hold 60 days of . full sessions before recessing for the November elec tions. It has been planned to postpone major legislation at least until after Labor Day, Sep tember 4, either by an extension of the present recess ending August 1, or by a scries of rou tine sessions punctuated by three day recesses. If the recent developments inside Germany mean that the nazi collapse is in sight, we should be prepared for that eventuality," Chavez told a re porter.

Radio-Controlled Fire Fighting Proves Worth BOISE, Idaho, July 26 (IP) Radio-controlled fire fighting, the United States grazing bureau said today, "is proving Its ef ficiency in detection, communi cation and actual suppression" of blazes which threaten the na tion's range and forest lands. Regional Grazier Kelso P, Newman said 115 fires most of them set by lightning have been controlled in Idaho since July 1, an average of one every eight hours. They range from tiny fires which are curbed before they burn over more than a few square yards, to the 30,000-acrc blaze that blackened ranopanA in the desolate wastes northeast oi tne craters oi the Moon monu ment in south-central Idaho.

Tho hapless San Diego Padre dug deeper Into the leaguo cellar which they occupied Sunday when Clem Dreisewerd, Sacra mento southpaw, hurled tho So lon to a 1 to 0 shutout over the Padres. It was Drclscwcrd's fifteenth win in 17 starts. HI STARTS As a result of the severe lightning storms last week, four fires were started in Bonanza District 1. Horsefly allotment and one fire in Basin District 2W1 in tho Jerry Barry allot ment in Sage Hen. With the close cooperation of the forest service, the logging companies and the grazing applicants those (ires were quickly controlled and damage held to a minimum, ac cording to District Grazier Pol lard of Lakcvlcw. Because of the June rains the forngc is particularly dense over most of the grazing areas and too much stress cannot be placed on continued vigilance in report ing fires and in preventing the start of man-made fires, he said. There have been numerous re ports of campers and fishermen leaving urcs unattended on pri vate and federal range lands. On Sunday, July 23, one fire was found deserted without hav ing been quenched on Camas creek, and two on Deep creek. If this practice Is continued it will be necessary to take steps to close all fire hazard areas to camping for the duration of the lire season, roilard warned. Fire Destroys Car Belonging to Hadley A car belonging to Pete Had ley was destroyed by fire early Wednesday morning.

"Lookouts, oven in remote re gions, nave spilt second com munications to report fires to the central dispatcher, who radios the location and route nf travpl to tho smokecliascr cquip- pca mr lire iignung," INewman said. "The smokechaser notifies lo cal rancher crews who drop their work and accompany him. Progress on the fire line is report ed to the central dispatcher by portable radio direct from the lire.
