To Wrestle
No-Time Tilt
Georges Dusctte and Pete Bel
castro nave finally agreed to a
continuation of their struggle to
determine a challenger for the
Weidner light heavy belt. This
time it will be a no-time-lim t,
2-out-of-3 full battle in the main
event spot Thursday night at
the armory.
I After last week's fiasco which
was supposed to determine a
man to fight Weidner and turned
out, instead, to be a rough and
tumble draw; both Dusette and
Belcastro felt that they had
shown enough stuff to be In the
challenger class. Neither wished
to repeat a fight, but both could
not battle Weidner. Finally
Promoter Mack Lillard got them
to agree to wrestle a no-time job
for the challenger role.
Billy Weidner, the belt hold
er, will also be on the card that
night, but of necessity will fight
in the second event spot. His
opponent has not been decided,
but with Weidner at the con
trols, it will be a good fight.

By SID FEDER
. NEW YORK. 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

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.

-Hot 'Ball

Don Johnson, a 20-year-old fire
baller from Portland, Ore., went
south with the New York Yan
kees for a "look" and comes
back tabbed the hottest pros
pect on the ball club.
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.

ully only 1500 acres that the fish

of so-called "buffer strips" that
hnvo been made iivnilablo to us
by the bureau of reclamation for
tho raising of crops for the feed
ing of waterfowl. 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.
