Shorter Duck Season Prospect WASHINGTON, June 6 (IP) Duck hunters this year face a shorter shooting season, a re duced bag limit, or both. This will be necessary, Di rector Albert M. Day of the fish and wildlife service said today, "to halt and reverse the alarm ing decline in the wild duck population." In the past two years, Day said, there has been an average decline of about 23,000,000 birds a year. The continental population of migratory waterfowl began to decline in 1945 when the annual inventory of the service indi cated 105,500,000 birds, com pared with the peak of 125,350, 000 in 1944. The downward trend continued in 1946 with wild ducks and geese dropping to 80,000,000. Meanwhile the number of licensed duck hunters skyrocketed to 1,696,368. Oakland, Calif.

Although the merits and qual ity of fish caught there are constantly under discussion, D. L. "Bill" Vinson, 2325 Cali fornia, is proud of a H pound salmon trout hooked there. Fishing in the swift water just below the dam on Link river, Vinson, 65 and an ardent fisherman, cast his line out not 10 minutes before the big fish took it. "He took the reel right out of my hands five or six times," declared Vinson. He used a small hook, about a number 2, one ounce of weight on his line, and had a live min now as bait. The fish was hooked about 4:30 Monday afternoon and Vin son, fishing the spot alone, land ed it after a 25-minute battle. The fish weighed 9 pounds four hours after it was caught.

DRIFTWOOD CAFE 126 So. 7th Unitr New Manmt- Barbecues Steaks Hamburgers OPEN ALL NIGHTI Closed Sundays r Bucs Hear Quit Call PITTSBURGH, June 6 (fl't Major league baseball faces the threat of the first union strike in its long history here tomor row night in a scheduled game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the New York Giants. Robert Murphy, ruddy-faced labor relations director of the American Baseball Guild, an nounced last night the Pitts burgh Pirates had voted unani mously not to take the field against the Giants unless Bucs officials meet their demands for an immediate collective bar gaining election. William E. Benswanger, pres ident of the club, discussed the case with his attorneys this morning and told Murphy he expected to give him a decision later today. Averted Last Night Only a dramatic eleventh hour session in the Pirates club house kept the strike from com ing off before last night's game with Brooklyn, which the Dod gers won, 5-3. The rapid-fire developments followed a breakdown of a con ference earlier in the day at Benswanger's office, during which the Pirate management suggested the guilt issue be de ferred until the baseball season is over. First word of the strike threat came shortly after 6 o'clock when Murphy met with the pjayers and telephoned Pirate officials. The players had voted to stay in the dressing room until Benswanger came to talk to them. If Benswanger didn't show up within an hour. Mur phy said he "wouldn't be re sponsible if the game did not go on." He said the players were ready to vote in that event. Trip To Clubhouso But Benswanger heeded the ultimatum and made his first trip to the Pirate clubhouse in 12 years, while thousands of fans poured into Forbes field unaware of the drama that was being enacted. Benswanger let Seward H. French Jr., his chief counsel, do most of the talking. But he did tell the players he thought he always had been fair with them and would leave any de cision up to them.

Relief Hurler Keeping Cubs In Flag Chase Br The Associated Press Emll Kush, a local boy from Chicago's North Side, who waited nine long years to make a boyhood dream come true, was rivaling the Boston Red Sox' Earl Johnson as tha number one relief pitcher in the major leagues today. Not since Jack Russell, whose yeomnn relief work helped the Chicago Cubs win the 1038 National league pennant, have the Bruins boasted such a brilliant rescue artist as this 29-yeur-old righthander. Kush gained his fourth victory without defeat yesterday all of them in relief roles as the Cubs shaded the New York Giants 6 5 to move Into third place In the National league pen nant race. The native Chicagoan entered the game In the seventh inning after the Giants had pummelled Johnny Schmitz and two successors for a dozen hits and all their runs, and held the New Yorkers hitless the rest of the way. With Peanuts Lowrey again starting the fireworks as he did In Tuesday's victory over the' Giants, th Cubs overcame a 5-1 deficit with four runs in the sixth and won the game In the ninth when First Baseman Ed Waitkus walloped a two-out single with the bases loaded. No Ground Gained The Cubs, however, could gain no ground on the pace-setting Brooklyn Dodgers and sec ond place St. Louis Cardinals who won their games to retain their respective six and half and three game margins over the Bruins. With few of the 26.026 Forbes field fans knowing that only an hour before the arc-light con test was scheduled to start, the Pirate players had threatened to strike over a demand for union recognition, the Brooks downed the Bucs 5-3. Buster Pinch Hits Pinch Hitter Elvln (Buster) Adams singled with the bases loaded in the ninth to give the Cards a 2-1 edge over the Bos ton Braves in another arc-light contest. The New York Yankees re duced the American league lead ing Boston Red Sox margin to six and a half games when they waltzed to a 9-6 decision over the Chicago White Sox before 57.283 paid fans at the third night game in Yankee stadium history. A total of 35 players saw ac tion as the Sox waged an 8-8 tie I with the St. Louis Browns. The; game lasted three hours and 29 minutes and went 12 innings before it was called on account of darkness. Play had been sus pended for 61 minutes in the mmii uuvauw 01 neHvy rain. Ten pitchers were used, six by ine crowns.
