KLAMATH Thousands An estimated 6.000 deer died this winter on the grazing ranee south o( Tulelake In Modoc County, and despite recent good, weather deer iTiwewnr ayinr wwm. ' Last. weecna and early-mis week the Klamath Sportsman's As sociation, the U.S. Forest service and California Fish and Oulile Com mission conducted a census of deer losses In certain areas where the Interstate deer herd of Oregon and California, ranges. COUNT They found 112 carcasses of dead deer In an 8400 acre area Saturday and Sunday, and another count Monday uncovered another 70S carcasses In 6000 acres. The counting crews gave each area a "100 per, cent coverage" blanketing whole sections. Men were lined up abreast of each oth er 100 feet apart each within talk ing and seeing distance of another. Each deer counted was marked by placing a limb, rock or piece of bark on It to Insure no duplica tions In counting. . The 8400-acre area checked south M'Kay Says No Daylight Time SALEM IB Standard time will be official In Oregon this summer. Governor McKay late Tuesday snld facts failed to warrant a switch to daylight saving time. A year ago his finding was the reverse of that and the state then had daylight time. The governor, in making his 1953 announcement, said that in view of the facts, he could not "con scientiously proclaim daylight sav ing time for the state of Oregon." That, officially, Is Uie last word before Sunday when the eastern part of the country, California, Nev ada nnd some cities of Washington, switch to summer time. Unofficially, a movement start ed In Portland to get a switch to daylight time on a voluntary basis in tne city. Cltv Commissioner J, E. Bennett said he would put the matter be fore the city council immediately, but Deputy City Attorney Marion Rushing said the state law bound the city. The state law prohibits daylight time unless the governor proclaims 11. Representatives of Portland radio network stations scheduled a Wednesday meeting to see whether they shouldn t go on daylight time as individual stations to avoid con fusion when the networks, switch Sundny, The Portland Retail Trade Bureau scheduled a similar meet ing to talk over the possibility of Individual stores adopting fast time hours.

CONDITIONS While checking the kill examiners were able to determine the browse and grazing conditions of the rang According to District Ranger Oeorge Fischer. Modoc NaUonnl Forest, deer conditions are improv ing, but the animals are still dying each day because of the accumu lative effects of their starvation. Vlrgit Davis, last year's presi dent of the Klamath Sportsman's Association, reported a doe Jumped up in front of him ran a short distance and dropped. He found the animal dead. Trev Wright, California Fish and Game officer, figured about 80 per cent of the carcasses counted were fawns, four per cent were year lings and 16 per cent were adults.

CONCENTRATION . Fischer figured the deer kill Is concentrated on about 34,000 acres, and prorated from discoveries this weekend would make the. kill stand at about 5000 deer. This does not, according to Rogue River District Ranger R. L. Cooi er. who made the deer tour, take Into consideration the losses which may have occurred outside the con centrated area, nor those occurring since the weather has moderated and the concentrations have spread out. The areas checked were both north of the big Modoc burn of last summer, but there may have been a tew more deer on those browsing lands because of the shortage of food In the burn one of the best feed districts of the Interstate herd. Tule Hospital Verdict Eyed TULELAKE--There was strong lndicaUon here today that Siskiyou County's Board of Supervisors isn't going to support the Joint hospital plan proposed recently. Modoc Supervisor Jim Stearns and Mayor Dick Moore. Tulelake, have scheduled a trip to Yreka to attend tne next sisnyou meeting. They hope to get a final yes of no at that time. The hospital as proposed would have had 16 beds, and would have serviced Northwestern Modoc and Northeastern Siskiyou counties. At present the closest county Hospitals to the Tulelake and Butte Valley areas are in-AUuras and Yreka both several hours drive away. The Modoc County Board of Sup ervisors nad been giving strong support to the plan. The hospital would have been Jointly financed by the two counties, with federal and state aid expected.

Key States By The Associated Press Elsenhower-for-President leaders staked a claim Wednesday to the lion's share of Republican presidential-nominating votes In New York and Pennsylvania, where the general scored lop-sided election victories Tuesday. - In the Pennsylvania popularity poll.

Taft's name was not on the bal lothe kept it off and urged his supporters not to write it in and his backers called the results "meaningless." But Eisenhower leaders hoped this showing, plus 17.712 votes the general drew among Democrats might bring the state's 70 votes his way at tne uuf nominating convention in July. NEW YORK In New York, friends of Eisen hower won seven ot li primary con tests, indicating he will receive at least 85 of the state s 96 conven tion votes. Taft backers won three and one was undecided. The results seemed to strengthen the hand of Gov. Dewey, who wants Eisenhower as Republican presidential nominee.

Wednesday accused the steel Industry and big business in general ol trying to impose a "feudal system" on the American people "in the name of private enterprise." . He told the Senator Labor Com mittee that big business is "cheating the American public" and trying to put the burden of industrial expansion on "the backs of the common people of America."
