Dr. Clerwir-e ColUin, assistant bou of Die U. 8. (lull mid wlldllfo

Hirtallment In th duk iuuii and bog limit fur Oil coming (nil I
rtrtually assurd, though u yt not olllclal, and Dr. C'ulUni U In
tosltlnn to k:w whereof he speaks.
lit Mid, a ort of prediction, Hint th season limy be rrdticed to
10 day or avrii Iru, with dully kill limit on duck of five. Last year
til open non was 45 days, ban limit seven and a possession limit 14,
Otlior chouse In Ilia wililllfo regiiloilous which ro possible for thin

Dike from II to 1 for duck uni.
II sold Hint III estimated Nurth American population of duck
nss dropiied to A4.U00.UO0, from toul of la&.OOO.OOO In 1144. These
figure nr according to the full nnd wildlife services annual bird
wiiiii which wm taken In January.
fs Pacific Flyway Lost fn Shuffle?
A point HII lo be hit on the head I whether the Pacific count
migratory bird tlywny I as bud olf the wildlUn service's brush has
the overall picture pnliiled. Those figure quoted above concern the
three mnln flywny the tilicfn use In traveling from north to south mid
bnck Ui Atlantic, Mlulwlppl and I'nclflo.
No on aeemi ready to discuss whether the Pacific flyway la Just
gelling lost In the overall census future or whether that particular
flywny, which lead throuiih the wntrr and grain country around
Klamath and TulrUke. are a bad th other two.
A from th hoidra of bird her eurly lost fall and the amount of
crop damafe done, one might assume Hint fnr too little attention I
being paid to th Pacific flywny. 'flier U every chance that the bird
flock coming through her aren't represented properly In the census
figure.
One fact la known and generally overlooked. Mont of" the bird
coming down thla way nut far up In the Yukon rather than the
Canadian provlncea. and the type of hot, dry wentticr Hint drya up the
Canadian neatlng txitholea and wrecks the aprlng hatch tliere ho a
different effect on th Alaska nesting grounda, Up titer It thaw out
th tundr and provltlea more water and holra for the young bird.
Local Goose Flock Heavy This Year
Very little mention wan made of gees during Uie Portland dla
cuulona, but It'a a fart that the goono flight through here thla aprlng
going northward were M heavy and possibly even heavier than laal
year or the year before.
dome season will go along with duck season, anyhow. If there la
cut, but III bag limit for geese probably will remain the aame a
laat year.
In view of the particularly distressing local bird situation In relation
to farming, there la aom talk of a eclally tailored aeoaon tor Ui
Klamaih-Tulelak district, oiwnlug about thre week before Uie re
mainder of the mm. but there 100 per cent chance that nothing
will com of It.
If th season and limit is ihorteucd. Klamath will go right nlong

San Pranclsco Seals who rallied be
hind Uietr ace. Bob Chesnes, to beat
Oakland, 6-3. It was Chesne' 10th
triumph against two losses.
Chambers was reached for four
run and six hit before being lifted
for a pinch batsman In the seventh.
Joe Marty led Uie attack on Uie big
southpaw with a pair of doubles,
driving In two runs and scoring
another.
Another twirling test took place
In SeatUe where San Diego's Bob
Mulligan spaced nine hit for a 3-0
verdict over Kewple Dick Barrett of
th Rainier. After being held by
Barrett lo three hits In eight In

Innings for Barrett, and evened Uie

NEW YORK, May 34 WV-JImmy
Orlppo is a magician and a fight
malinger, and on occasion he has
combined the two to hypnotize Mello
lli-ulna for some of his fights. Bui
at his best, Jimmy never did a mes
merizing Job on Mcllo like Ous
Lesnevlch did with a right hand last
ulght In Madison Square Garden.
1 The world light-heavyweight cham
pion applied the sleep-maker on
the ex-champ In exactly 69 seconds
nt the first round of their scheduled
ten-rounder this Ume. And while
roly-poly Mello may not have been
i hypnotized In the accepted sense, no
one Is ever going to say he wasn't
I asleep. Particularly no one In the
crowa oi 10,20 wno paiu ai,i?.
to see the mesrderism applied by
Ous with three roof - caving In
knockdowns.
1 A a matter of fact, before he
recovered, It took a full half-hour
'of treatment and shot of adrena
! lln In hi dressing room for the
flabby Bettlna lo learn a wnere
he was, and b what he was doing
there.
At times he thought he was get
ting ready to attend the welghlng-ln
ceremony which had taken place
more than ten hours before and at
other time he didn't want a drink
af water because he was afraid It
would "put me over the weight." At
one point, he couldn't recognize
Manager-Magician Orlppo standing
