Billy Weidner, the belt hold er, will also be on the card that night, but of necessity will fight in the second event spot.

April 5 () Rock-s-bye Rocky Graziano, who had-his New York boxing license revoked for not reporting a 'ix offer he didn't accept, is back in training again, and there's a chance a movie camera, as well as another fellow's fist,, may be taking shots at his chin before long. Some time in the next couple of weeks he's going to ask the New York Athletic commission to make him a member in good standing again. And mild Erving Cohen, his manager, insists that if the fistic fathers turn him down, he'll take his thumping trade elsewhere. Right now, Rocky's return shot at Middleweight Champ Tony Zale's crown figures to make beautiful music on the turnstiles. ' If the commission makes with the old thumbs down. Rocky and Tony will likely do their cauli flower planting in Chicago, where it's already penciled in tentatively for June, or in Cleve land. If that bout blows up, though, he'll campaign around the coun tryside, all the way to California which is where those movie cameras come in. Irving says a week or 'so ago a Hollywood agent, one Jack Beekman, got. the idea Rocky might make a' movie actor. "Interested in making movies?" Rocky laughs. "Sure why not? What's Charles Boyer got that I haven't got and where can you learn a French accent?"

Wildlife 'Holiday1 Blasted The proposal of the National Audubon society for a one-year moratorium on the hunting of migratory waterfowl has been drawing lots of local comment, but most of the Klamath sports men seem agreed that such a moratorium would be fine for the east but unnecessary in the west. The Audubon society proposal came through on March 21 in an article by John H. Baker, president, writing in the society magazine in which he said: "The National Audubon society advocates that hunting of mi gratory waterfowl in North America be discontinued for a year, with the understanding that during that time basic re visions of management and regulation policies will, be worked out and adopted." Baker also urged, "Let's go right on buying duck stamps during the year of a halt in the kill. Let's encourage general public participation in the pur chase of stamps.' This proposal drew a blast from Maryland duck hunters and their state game warden, Ernest A. Vaughn, who branded the suggestion as "untimely and ridiculous." Vaughn declares, "There is no reason that I can see for rush ing into a closed season at this time and every reason in the world for waiting until the United States fish and wildlife service makes its decision from assembled facts." The concensus of local opin ion seems to agree with Vaughn and many believe that no mat ter what the wildlife decision is, it is not necessary in the west. Real marine paints. Bakeliie spar Tarnish.

Ariz., April 5 P) The New York Giants closed out their exhibition series with the Cleveland Indians yesterday pre paratory to heading back to the Polo Grounds with a 10-8 vic tory that ran their unbeaten string to six straight. - The Giants twice drew level with the tribe on home runs by Willard Marshall in the fifth and seventh innings.

Already assigned to a Kansas City contract, Johnson went along for the ride to help the other staff members in the early exhibition schedule. Once Man ager Bucky Harris saw him throw, his days with Kansas City were over. The deal by which he became Yankee property was formally completed a few days ago. Johnson left Harris bug-eyed with his speed, prompting the new Yankee skipper to promote him to the list of regular start ers. Right now he is listed No. 4 behind Floyd Bevens. Spud Chandler and Allie Reynolds. The April 17 Yankee stadium date with Philadelphia already has been selected for his debut. Such a hullabaloo might have been anticipated about some youngster with a brilliant minor league record but Johnson has had only one year of pro ball experience. That was split be tween Kansas City and Newark in 1944 when he was only 17.

All of the remainder of tho farm lands within the refuge boundary re main under the control of the bureau of reclamation. During tho forthcoming season and perhaps from now on the service plans to curlull the farm ing of these lands on a sharo-cron basis and will uudertuke tho cul tivation of the lands ourselves so that the crops grown on tho 1500 acres can he used In their en llii.lv fur tlio benefit nf wildlife species. It Is planned to place al least 600 acres in crops this coming year. This will substantially In crease the amount of grain avail able for waterfowl and should go a long way In eliminating depre dation on private crops as wen us to provide batter control over the movement ol the birds. I must agree with you thnt waterfowl will flock to burned over stubblo fields and perhaps should have amplified my orig luul stutomenl in this respect. We have endeavored to discourage burning of stubblo fields for the two-fold reason that an estimated 20 to 40 per cent of such grain Is destroyed through tho burning process and also Hint me miming renders the remaining grain too readily available. As a ctinsrmicnce the birds are not .compelled to scratch for tlieir iced as tncy must in a stubble field and as a result the grain in such fields is cleuned up In a few days and the birds are soon searching for new fields. We have found the bureau of reclamation to be most sympa thetic with our desires and objec tives and tWy havo endeavored to follow. Insofar as practicable recommendations thut have been made by this service. We are hopeful thnt tho refuge farming program coupled Willi efforts to curtail the burning of stubble fields and to postpone tho plowing' of them as long as pos sible, will better service the needs of watorfowl In this gen eral locality, and thereby im prove shooting conditions for the local sportsmen.
