PACE EICHT HLRALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON TUESDAY, JUNE 1, T? Memorial Day Sets Major Gate Records Cincy Reds Knock Cards From Froni Spot By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer Memorial Day, 1948, which produced the greatest single day turnout ever witnessed In the major leagues, will be remembered by baseball fans for a long time, but it will bring only poignant memories to followers of the St. Louis Cardinals. Only a comparative handful J4.0O9 persons of the record paid admissions of 337.776 were on hand In Clnclnnntl to see the lowly Reds Inflict two decisive defeats upon the slump-ridden Rcdbirds that knocked the Cards out of first place In the National league. The scores were 4-3 and 7-0. The defeats were the fourth and fifth straight suffered by the Cards. Today, as they prepare to open a long home stay, they find themselves out of the league lead for the first time since May 13. The new occupant of the top berth are the New York Giants, who assumed a hall-game lead over the Cards by earning a split in their double header with the Dodgers in Brooklyn. The Giants bowed, 4-3, In Die morning game, but came back strong to win the afternoon game, 10-1. The Philadelphia Athletics bounced first out and then back into the lead in the tight American league race by dividing a double- header with the Boston Red Sox before 24.838 hometown rooters. After Joe Dobson of the Red Sox had blanked them, -70, on four hits, the A s came back to win the sec ond, 3-1, to retain their game lead over the Cleveland Indians. The Red Sox have won only three of their last 15 games and Dobson has won them all. Manager Lou Boudreau's grand slum home run helped the Indians defeat the St. Louis Browns, 8-3, in the first game to put the Tribe Into temporary possession of first place. The huge crowd of 48361 Cleveland rooters was doomed to disappoint' ment, however, when the Browns came back to win the second game, 8-0. The New York Yankees defeated the Washington Senators In both ends of a doubleheader, 10-0 and 5-4, before 62,626 fans at Yankee sta dium. DETROIT THRONG ; Detroit's biggest crowd of the year 55375 fans saw the Tigers divide a doubleheader with the Chi cago White Sox. Scoring four runs in the first two innings, the Tigers won the ODener. 5-4. The Sox belt' ed four pitchers for 15 hits to win the second game, 9-3. ' The largest attendance in the his tory of the Chicago Cubs 16.965 saw the Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates split a twin bill. The Cubs won the opener. 4-3. ana tne nraies toon 4-2 second game and left the third place only one game behind the front-running Giants. After losing the opener to Phila delphia. 6-3, the Boston Braves sent the home crowd of 17.400 home happy by whipping the Phillies. 10-4. to snap a four-game losing streak. BROWNIES SCHEDULE TRY-OUTS ALBANY, Ore., June 1 The In fluence of the St. Louis Browns upon the baseball youth of the country will reach Into this com munity when they open a four-day instructional school at Municipal park Thursday, June 24. The school will be one of many scheduled by the Browns this sum mer for the purpose of discovering and training young ball players for their minor league clubs. The Albany school will be under the direction of Tony Robello, an experienced baseball player, coach, scout and manager. Robello is well known in this part of the country and has scouted and developed many ball players who are making good with the Browns' minor league dubs. The school will be open free to all boys 17 to 23 years of age, the only requirement being that they furnish their own baseball shoes and gloves. Out-of-town boys will be required to pay their own ex penses, but such expenses will be refunded to those signed to play ball with any of the Browns' clubs.

Return Bout Paces Card A return struggle between Pete Belcastro and Glen (Buddy) Knox is on the armory calendar for Fri day night. Promoter Mack Lillard said that Belcastro, loser last week, had asked for the return and that Knox had okayed It without reluctance. Last week the bald-headed Knox defeated Belcastro two falls out ol three, keeping the Weed wildman from getting back on the winning path he has been aiming at for the last month, but Pete maintains he was defeated by subterfuge and not squarely. Railblrds will remember that Knox gained his victory by rabbit punching Belcastro during the time out between rounds. The main event match on the card is slated for five heats. Trojans Snare Diamond Title PULLMAN, June 1 WP) Southern California's Trojans headed home ward today with the Pacific coast conference baseball championship as their reward for a 1000-mile trek to the rain-soaked Northwest.

The rain-shortened first game of the best-of-three scries was won by the Trojans last Friday. 7-5. Three-hit hurling by Southern Cal's Tom Klpp kept the Cougars well In check yesterday.

Tile Ratniers, three games out of first place, are scheduled to play the front-running San Francisco Seals tonight lu the first of a lend deciding seven-game series. Seattle moved Into close range by winning 17 of its last 20 games. The Rniniers achieved their latest two triumphs yesterday by tripping Portland S-2 and 4-3 before a Memorial Day crowd of 1X01)3. The two-ply win gave Seattle the scries 7-1. San Francisco, meanwhile, split Its holiday doubleheader with third place Los Angeles. The Seals won the opener 8 to 2 but dropped the. second game. 4-0. Oakland walloped Hollywood 10-2 in the first game but (altered In the second, 5-3. San Diego downed Sacramento 4-2 In the opener anil the curfew halted the second tilt after 11 Innings with the score tied at 5-5.

ONLY ONE SHELL IS SPOTLESS NEW YORK. June 1 (yJi-When they sound the "ready all" at Poughkeepsle June 23 there will be only one crew answering with an undefeated record so far this year. That will be the University of Washington Huskies from Seattle. The Huskies, already Pacific Coast champions after a victory over California, last Saturday drubbed the University of Wisconsin Badgers. one-length conquerors of Navy, in record time on Lake Washington. Navy's defending Poughkeepsle champions, meanwhile, returned to winning ways after a couple of de feats by handing Cornell its first loss Saturday on the Severn while the middies' commander-in-chief, an enthusiasla.it named Harry S. Truman, looked on. Navy previously had lost to Har vard and Wisconsin, while Cornell had beaten both the Johnnies and the Badgers. Thus next month's Poughkeepsle water fight will see the navy and Cornell as the East's chief obstacles to Washington's goal of taking an undefeated record into the Olympic tryouts scheduled for June 30-July 10. Washington repesentcd America in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. All Olympic aspirants who row at Poughkeepsle, however, will face the task of converting from a distance to a sprint beat In eight days. The 'Keepsle classic Is at three miles. while the Olympic tryouts are at 2000 meters. Pyle Takes Nod Over Palmer VANCOUVER, B.

Quebec Fernando Oagnon, 118, Quebec, knocked out Ralph McNeil, 114, Springfield, Mass., (2. Dams Should Be CCep? Off !&ogue Driver Public hearings conducted by governmental agencies have a way of not amounting to much, generally, but there is one scheduled for the Medford armorv June 8 that is touchv with dynamite. The hearing is over a proposal by the bureau of reclama tion to build dams on the Rogue river. Ted Conn, member of the state game commission, will represent that organization and, with plenty of help from resort owners and anglers, try to persuado the federal govern ment to drop the Rogue from its water development plans. The Rogue is probably the most important soort fishina stream for salmon and stcclhead on the Pacific Coast ond contributes a largo annual income to the region over there. The pleasure it gives the thousands of persons who fish the Rogue each year is unassessable. It should not be taken for commercial water development. Here in the West the bureau of reclamation is powerful, but not all-powerful. In the matterr of its plans for the Rogue river, sportsmen should put their collective foot down. "This far ye shall go and no farther," In a 1945 report the U. S. fish and wildlife service, which is a part of the department of interior along with the bureau ot reclamation, recommended that the Rogue be left alone and pointed out three reasons for the recommendation: 1 Importance of the river for fishing, 2 Economically prohibitive fish salvage problems that would be involved. 3 Oregon law against building dams on the Rogue. There is such a law on the books. However, the recommendation apparently has not been taken seriously. Thj state game commission made a report, jointly with the fish and wildlife service, April 29, 1948, pointing out 1 1 good reasons why the Rogue should not be turned into a water development project. One was that the series of six power dams suggested for construction above the town of Prospect would destroy one of the most beautiful recreational streams in the West and seriously damage the runs of salmon and stelhead below the town. A final recommendation was that conorcss dedicate the Rogue river to be set oside as a salmon and stcclhead refuge for all time and thot no further dams be permitted to be constructed at any point or time on the moin stream, in cluding the north fork, from its headwaters to the Pacific ocean. There is no vital reoson why the federal government and bureau of reclamation need to go into the Rogue country, and if sportsmen moke that statement so plain at the Med ford meeting, perhaps this one stream can be saved.
