Balsbery aUted specifically that the Son were using shoddy ma lerlnla In their construction work, and that no repairs had been made to the existing facilities at the park except to re-roof the grandstand. Salxbery aald that the latter was done only at his Insistence. cTrnlnl declared that the Sons were living up to the agreement a. fast as the work could be nanaiea. and that me city duuuuw had more or less Jumped the gun on his accusations. He said thai the agreement under which the Sons are Improving Uie park was okayed only about a month ago. Since that time. Carninl said, the Sons have spent about $600 for labor alone, outside of what work has been done for nothing, and right now owe a $400 bill for lumber. The central grandstand hat been cowed, a grandstand down first base line built, wire netting In front of the stands strengthened, a ramp leadinc into the main gate built, two ticket wlndowa and the ticket room built. "No shoddy material was used In any of the building," Carnlnl said. Salsbery ok'd the work Saturday morning, before Uie game twith Medfordl Sunday afternoon. The building Inspector has Uie Job of supervising the work at Recreation field. Carnlnl said Uiat the Sons fully intend to live up to the agreement with the city, but Uiat baseball sea son doesn't start for almost two nuo.; ..v ,r anoerioominK up next 'sun- ( dav are being held to raise money to "help pay for Uie work being done at the field. , The agreement between the Sons and the city covers these points: The Sons agree to build two new grandstands, along first and third base lines, and cover all tbe grandstands; pat the fence around the park in good shape; build two dugouts; set up two ticket booths; if lime permits, seed the entire outfield, and maintain the field and grandstand throughout base ball season.

Snapp Opponent Still Unfound No opponent has been lined up to meet Ursal "Ginger" Snapp in the local ring next Tuesday night, and according to Promoter Mack Llllard the Merrill middleweight is getting harder to match all the time. A good many of the boys in that weight class in Oregon and Cali fornia don't want any part of Snapp in the prize ring, particularly since Ursal maimed Wayne Parker in Portland last Friday night. However, Snapp Is signed to head line the next card here, and will do so even It the card has to be post poned for a week, Llllard said. Want To Ge FISHING?

S. fish and wildlife service estimated today It will have to close eight Instead of 18 fish hatch eries under house-proposed appro priations for 1M8. ' Albert M. Day. director of the service, told a reporter the hatch eries to be closed will not be de termined until after senate action upon Uie house appropriations bill. The alternative to closing some hatcheries. Day said, would be to operate all of them on a custodial or token basis "a wasteful and In efficient acUon we do not propose to take." rh.r fuh and wildlife service officials said that the agency also will have to close two mobile trailer laboratories based at Seattle, and that Uie laboratories at SeatUe and Ketchikan. Alaska, announced last week as facing closure, probably will be retained. Dav estimated that the agency will have to dissolve three of its 10 cooperative units for training per sonnel In wildlife management and research, and will have to discharge 34 employes in the field of wildlife management, including 28 trained technicians. Because the appropriation for Alaska fur seal migratory studies stipulates that the work be com pleted within a year, that project will have to be disconUnued alto gether. Uie director added. The study area involved is so great that nothing conclusive could be ac complished In a year, he explained. Hoop Fan Has Toiigh Time Of It I NEW YORK.
