George Fisher, Modoc forest er who has worked on deer cen suses for three years, pointed out the current concentration of the interstate herd and Califor nia Class mountain herd in and around the lava beds area. . He has made a strip survey every month this winter and is to make a final check this week to determine as far as possible the exact actions of the inter state herd from the time they cross the state line at the begin ning of cold weather until they cross it again going north in the spring. By his count, at the peak of this winter, some 17,700 resident California and transient Oregon deer were using the lava beds and bittcrbrush winter range. That figure, he said, is some 10,000 less than last winter when the navy's bombing range shoved deer into the area which would normally winter east and south of the lava beds. Fisher had some interesting figures for the ratio of bucks to does and does to fawns for the two herds, charted not later than January while the bucks were carrying antlers. For the interstate herd the buck to doe ratio in 1044 was one to seven, in 1945 was one to six and this winter has dropped to one buck for nine docs. For the Glass mountain herd the ra tio for the past two winters is about one buck to four does. One reason for the slender ra tio of the transient herd is the fact that the bucks were shot at twice once in Oregon and again in California because of the different seasons, Fisher be lieves, and the decline over the last two years is partly due to more hunting last season. Biologists say that for a healthy, well-balanced herd the best ratio is one buck to four or five docs. Current doe-fawn ratio of the interstate herd, Fisher figures, is two to one for does, and of the Glass mountain deer just a slightly better sprinkling of fawns. The ratio of fawns in the interstate herd has been going down rapidly in the past few years. Predators, disease, still birth, accidents and illegal hunt ing are all factors in the small fawn crop. The watchers also found that spike bucks are increasing, but forked horns are on the decline. Two-pointers are legal game in Oregon, three-pointers and over are legal In both states. Four pointers are a little more numer ous, however, because the mini mum of hunting in 1043 and 1944 allowed more of them to grow up and become wary of hunters. Big bucks are way down, those having more than four points and 250-poundcrs and over, generally because of hu man nature. They're the ones hunters go for. Randall McCain, Fremont for ester also studying the herds, told the gathering that it was his observation that California, be cause of a three-point law, is carrying over 30 deer for every shootable buck, but that in the Fremont forest there was a legal buck for every six deer grazing. He advanced the Idea that deer is a crop that should be managed just the same as cattle or sheep, the herds a public busi ness and the forage a public re source. A rancher who slaughtered only the heaviest and best-conditioned animals of his herd, as is being done to the deer herds, or who left his lamb to ewe or calf to cow ratio dwindle as the doe to fawn ratio is, would soon go broke, McCain asserted. Driving down to Alturas in the afternoon persons attending the meeting from Klamath Falls spotted numerous groups of deer within a few hundred yards of the highway, just north of the border checking station, and coming back at n l g h t noticed that the deer had come right up to the edge of the highway to feed. The browse did not appear too good. SALEM, Murch 18 !) The jjftic Axemen held their first ute prep mtsKciunu vuiuiiiiiuu LUirv 11)27 after a stunning.

BartlesviUe s Phillips B0 Oil ers, looking as mugnificcnt as ever in a Bli-ll) rout of Torring ton, Wyo., still loomed large as the team to beat and tlio conserv ative betting men still figured the Okluhoman's most serious challenges would come from the ranks of the old reliables who have dominated this nationwide cage classic for a decade. Uut it will be a rough roud to Saturday's f inula und there urc a couple of service teams that will have youth nnd stamina on their side when they tangle witli the "big names" of cngedom. Looking particularly impres sive among the newcomers in Sunday's play were the sun bronzed young giants of the fleet marine force who flew to the states from Honolulu with a 34- gamc winning streak in the Pa-'l clflc and smashed Denver s mod erately good Eaton Metals team, Eagles Need One Victory In Division PORTLAND, Ore.. March 18 (l) The Portland Eagles, tak ing last night's Northern Divi sion Poclfic const hockey lcoguc game from the Vancouver Ca nucks, 5 to 3, need one more win to cop the division title. The Eagle's victory gave them a two to one edge in the title playoff scries, and If they take tomorrow's game here, the scr ies Is In their bag. Up until the first eleven min utes of the second period, Port land had all the scoring, with the lead piled to 4-0. Tho Canucks finally scored their three mark ers, two in the remaining lime of the second, and one in the third. , , The Canadians tried some rough stuff near the end of the game, but the confident Eagles Just tightened up around their goal and held the score until the finish. 78-29, in their tournament bow. The lengthy marines from Camp LcJeunc, N. C, also ap peared capable of making trou ble for almost anyone as they outscored the Old Home Bread team from Sioux City, Iowa., 86 51. SHU another likely looking service club was that from Camp Hood, Texas, which coasted to an cosy 55-30 win over Lowry field of Denver and seemed to be saving up for its second round test tomorrow against Phillips 00. Riverside, Roosevelt Still Tops Riverside and Roosevelt are as yet undefeated in the grade school B basketball tournament going on at the KUHS gym, and gel together this afternoon at 4:30. Saturday morning Pelican edged out Fremont, 18-10, with Keith Holloway hooping eight points for the Pels. Riverside knocked over Mills 17 to 5.

Lane Swedish Duo Ousted From Free Track Gundcr Haegg, Andersson Ruled Professional By Secret Conclave STOCKHOLM, March 18 () Sweden's famed running twins, Gundcr Haegg and Arne Anders son, have come to the end of their record-breaking trail. The two outstanding middle distance racers, who hold eignt world standards between them and who came within less than two seconds of achieving the four minute "dream" mile, were declared professionals yesterday by the Swedish Athletic associa tion board and barred from amateur competition for life. In one of the most sweeping actions in amateur sports his tory, the board, after nolding a secret two-day conference on an island in Lake Maclcr, not only ruled out Haegg and Andersson but also penalized seven other runners of lesser reputation for infractions of amateur regula tions. Other Swedlsn athletes in volved in the investigations which began last November were cleared because of "insufficient proof. The Swedish press said they numbered between 30 and 40. While the board did not re veal the amount of money Haegg and Andersson were ac cused of receiving for partici pating in track meets, a reliable source told the Associated Press they acknowledged receiving 40,000 crowns (approximately $10,000) when asked to make a report to the association. Swe dish sports writers generally es timatcd their financial rewards "at more than 75,000 crowns' ($18,500). (In New York. Dan Ferris, secretary-treasurer of the A.A.U., uho handled HaeEK's U. S. tours in 1943 and 1945, said the Swe dish swiftie received only $1 a day for incidental expenses while he was here in addition to allowances for meals, hotels and transportation).

The silent partners must keep one hand on the corner turn buckle at all times.
