Both bovs came out of their

Lipscomb came back to take
the second full in nothing flat

Another exchnime of plcasan

NEW YORK, July 14 (P)
An artificial boom in class L
baseball seems to be in the mak
ing as an outgrowth of the
much-discussed signing of Kiel
players. ... In the past few
days reports have turned up on
plans to form a new circuit
(class unspecified) in some of
the larger southern cities and
for a definitely "D" loop in
some smaller cities in Western
association territory. , . . One
club owner, who adds that the
W. A. plans to operate next year
and may have its troubles find
ing players, explains that the
big league clubs have been sign
ing 16-year-olds "and paying
them real money" only to find
that they're not ready for any
thing but the lowest minors. . .
As a result they're now trying
to organize more leagues and
clubs for theso youngsters so
they won't lose out entirely on
their investment.
BOOMERANG BOOM
The proposed Bntl-teen rule,
sponsored by Commissioner Hap
py Chandler, may check the
signing of youngsters, but as the
better players return from the
war, a lot of kids will be shoved
back down the ladder to fill up
tho "D" clubs. . . . Then after
a couple of years there'll be a
new problem whether to pay
older, players more dough than
most small teams can afford, let
tho teams fold up or go back to
signing teen-age boys.

Boston has kept pace with Its

Although -Washington's surge

the Red Sox as the "dark horse

The Red Sox climbed up even

Antlerless Deer Season
Opposed By Klamath Group
The Klamath-Modoc chapter
of the Izaak Walton league of
America has come out strongly
against any authorization of an
antlerless deer season in the
Klamath lake area at this time.
Members of the Klamath-Modoc
chapter also recommended
that the Oregon state game com
mission establish the limits of
the deer hunting season for the
Seriod from October 1 through
ovember 4, in a letter to the
game commission.
Members of the chapter have
also become concerned over the
firesent status of the deer popu
ation as indicated by reports
of the game commission and the
forest service.
According to figures released,
the chapter feels that the deer
population figure is at a compar
ative standstill, if not decreasing
at the present time.
If the total kill of deer in 1944
was 2000 animals, as indicated
by the report of the commis
sion, ' the chapter expects that
4000 animals will be killed in
the 1045 hunting season, there
