tACE EICHT Yank-Dodger City Series Near Certain Both Teams Boast Sizeable Margins Going Into August Bv Tlie Associated Press A subway world series, founded on two dazzlnut western trips by the Brooklyn Dodgers and New Yorlt Yankees, appeared likely as the clubs headed Into Auoust, normally tin head of the stretch In the base ball pennant races. Thirteen straight victories by the under-rated Brooks have given Man ager Burt Shoiion's men a com miuidliiK Ill-game lead over the New York Omuls and the defending St. Louis Cardinals. The Yankees have opened up la- game margin on the defending Bos ton Red Sox. Brooklyn's feat has been more ex ceptional than the Yanks' because the Dodgers were not supposed to be in the same class with the Cardinals. In sweeping three straight from St. Louis al Sportsman's park, the third bv a 2-1 margin yesterday, the Dodgers left the champs hanging on the ropes. St. louls has 59 games to play as compared to 55 for the Dodgers but their overwhelming advantage In home games- now has largely disappeared and they must fight It out on even ground against that Uggering 10-game deficit. Even Howie Pollet, tlie old Dodger tamer, failed Manager Eddie Dyer although he pitched a smart" gatae, normally good enough to win. They were tied at 1-1 going to the ninth when Pee Wee Reese trippled down the right field foul line to score Bruce Edwards with the winning run. The New York Giants also helped the Dodgers build up their lead by bowing to Cincinnati, 8-7. The defeat left the Giants 10 full games back of the Brooks. Grady Ha. ton's three-run homer In the eighth turned the tide after earlier clouts by Johnny Mize and Walker Cooper. It was No. 31 for Mise. Dutch Leonard, whose American league release appears to have been an embarrassing mistake, posted his 12th victory for Ben Chapman's Phillies, a 3-0 five-hit shutout over the Chicago Cubs. Rain washed cut-tlie Boston at Pittsburgh game and "threatening weather" postponed the Detroit at New York game although the sun shone most of the afternoon on the Yankee stadium. j Cleveland swept Its three-game set from the Boston Red Sox, 5-4, on a pair of homers by Manager Lou Boudreau and Joe Gordon. Bob Savage stifled a hut-inn ingJ spurt by Chicago to save Phila delphia's Bill Dietrich his fourth victory over Ed Lopat, 3-2. Sav age finally retired Cass Michaels alter Kudy York's double and Luke Appling's single helped pull the Sox within one run of a tie. Mickey Haefner continued his ef ficient pitching, scattering live St. Louis hit for a 4-1 Washington triumph.

Cut ting the nation's duck-hunting sea son to a 10-year low. tlie fish and wildlife service predicted today a "very substantial reduction" In the kill of waterfowl this year. The agency which controls the sportsman's trigger linger reduced the shooting of ducks and geese to 30 days in the East and 35 days In the Central and Western states. This is the shortest season since the duck-depression years of the mid-thirties. The hew regulations also short ened each hunting day by an hour, and clamped new limitations on the number of waterfowl a hunter may kill In one day or accumulate In more than a day. Furthermore, no Indefinite Yet The season as set up for Ore gon California Is split, running 'from October 31 through Novem ber 3 and from December 33 through January 5, which for this section virtually means Just two weeks of shooting the first two weeks. The wildlife service's an nouncement of the dates was ex tremely sketchy and indefinite. The hunting hours haven't been explained and other phases of the law need a lot of clarifica tion. Duck daily limit is four, but there are a number of questions that need to be answered regard ing the goose limit. hunter may keep his catch in stor age for more than 90 days after the season's ending. Acting Secretary of the Interior Oscar L. Chapman said "reductions in the hunting season and bag lim its are necessary this year to stem the noticeable decrease in waterfowl over the past three years. "If the sport of wildfowling is to continue, wa must regulate the take to less than the season's increase." Albert M. Day, director of the fish and wildlife service, added the pre diction that "we are in for a poor shooting season." He said reports on waterfowl nest ing conditions on northern breeding grounds fc the most part are "ex tremely discouraging." Certain amply-watered areas In Southern Alberta apd Southern Saskatchewan hat'e reported favor ably on nesting conditions. Day added, but those areas provide ducks primarily for the Western states. RESCUE PORTLAND, Aug. 1 fycV-A house boat resident rescued two . young men from the Willamette river here last night, after their small boat overturned.

Then he was told he had been traded along with Pitchers Clartli Mann and Bud Beasley and Outfielder Bill Ramsey to Seattle for Pitchers Slg Jakucki, Rex Cecil. Charlie Ripple and Outfielder Johnny Rucker. The eight-player deal, the biggest swap In recent years on the coast, was a case of fourth-place Seattle and the fifth-place Salons juggling talent in a hope to hop up their pennant chances. Offhand, if anyone got the edge in the trade, observers were inclined to feel Fletcher's 13-11 record tipped the scales for Seattle. No spring chicken he's 33 Fletcher appears headed for another 20-game win mark. In 1945, he won 34, lost 14 for the Sacs. Last year. it was 19-13. Otherwise, it seemed a standoff.

' The Oaks scored seven runs in the first Inning, then coasted in on Floyd Speer's five-hitter. The loss dropped Hollywood into seventh place, a half-game back of Portland.
