Tn clear ud some mlsundei standing around the Basin, the dove season is still open as is the pigeon season, the dead line for hunting these birds is September 30 for pigeons and October 10 for the dove hunter. FISHING STILL HANGS on the local sportsman's menu, but has fallen off a great deal in the past month or so. The Williamson Riv er is still producing a few good catches, with night crawlers and Wobble-Rites bringing the best re sults. ' . Reports from coastal fishing in dicates that the salmon fishing from Astoria to Winchester Bay, just north of Coos Bay, is at its best and the catch could very well be a record. Trolling and still fishing in East and Paulina Lakes have continued to be fair to good, with some very nice catches being taken from the two twin-lakes south of Bend. Diamond Lake will be another place where the fisherman without a pole will be able to clean up next Tuesday afternoon. The State Game Commission is noisoning the lake to rid the waters of trash fish at this time, and ang lers are allowed a limit of 30 fish a day. The poison will not effect the fish as far as the eating is con cerned, and some very good sized fish are expected to be taken when the poison takes effect on the trout and trash fish. Added help is wanted by the local sportsman's association and the State Game Commission to help distribute the poison and also pick up the fish as they come to the top of the surface. Work will start early Tuesday morning and the poison should begin to take effect by noon, according to all reports. IN ANSWER TO QUESTIONS on the special elk season held in the Tenmile Lake area in North- By JOE REICHLER . Associated Freaa Sports Writer Beaming with pride over his pennant-bound New York Giants. Leo Durocher today called his 1954 eaiue leaders a greater club than liis 1951 miracle team that came from way behind to defeat the Brooklyn Dodgers with the never-to-be forgotten finish. The voluble little manager, gush ing with good will and in a bless em-all attitude, lauaeo nis mams as the "gamest team that ever walked out on a field ' following what probably was their happiest day of the season. Combining brilliant pitching, a tight defense and timely hitting, the Giants twice whipped the Mil waukee Braves by 6-3 scores yes terday to sweep the three-game se ries and stretch their first-place lead over Brooklyn to 4i games. A 9-3 defeat inflicted by Cincinnati uoon the Dodeers helped the Giants pick up a game and a half in one afternoon. 'Did you ever' see such a club this one?" boomed Leo in voice loud enough to drown om the clubhouse din. "This Is the earnest club I ever managed. And one of the best. Certainly .better than the '51 Giants. It has more pitching, a deeper bench and an improved Willie Mays. 'Maybe my 1941 Dodgers were better. But I'm not even sure of that. Anyway, these guys of mine are great. Simply great. All of them." GOOD REASON Durocher had good reason to be proud of his team. Once again when the- chips were down they came through like champions. The more precarious their position, the harder they have played. Four limes during the last four weeks. the Giants' lead shrunk to tnree or fewer games and each time they have come through with resound ing victories. As a result of yesterday's activi ties, the Giants can count their pennant chances on the fingers of one hand. The magic numoer is now three. Anv combination of five Giant victories and-or Dodger de feats would clinch the flag for New York. The game but hard-luck Braves, now 7i lengths off the pace, are virtually eliminated. The combina tion there is three. In justice to the Braves, they played the entire series without the services of slug ging Joe Adcock, their injured first baseman. In addition, Eddie Mathews was handicapped by a lame left leg. Bobby Thomson missed yesterday's win bill be cause of his ailing ankle and Henry Aaron was out with a busted leg. Only one other major league came was Dlaved. In that one. the New York Yankees prolonged their agony, defeating the Detroit Tigers 4-2 to keep their faint pennant hopes barely alive. They still trail the pace-setting Cleveland Indians by eight games with only nine to go. Cleveland aiso una nine gamco Despite the Giants' big bulge. Durocher refused to make any brash pennant statements. "We play one game at a time," he said. "We've got to win again today." (The Giants play Philadel phia tonight). "But those two were good ones. My guys played like champions. You can't give them enough credit. Gomez . . . Gris som . . . Wilhelm . . . Mays . . Irvin . Dark . . Williams . . all of them Everybody took part. I'm proud of all of them." HEROES Ruben Gomez and Monte Irvin were the first-game heroes. Gomez, the Puerto Rican right hander, turned in an eight-hitter for his 16th triumph and fourth in a row. Monte Irvin drove in lour runs with a double, single and sac rifice fly as the Giants knocked out Warren Spahn for the first time this season. He has started six times against them. Grissom and Wilhelm combined to hold the .Braves, to seven bits in the nightcap. Grissom, making his first start since May 1, gave up all the hits before he was re moved after Mathews' 37lh homer had tied the score at 2-3 with one out in the sixth inning. Wilhelm gained credit for the victor', his 12th, holding the Braves ruuless and hitless in 3 3-3 innings. He now has pitched 9 2-3 consecutive hitless innings. Mays slammed his 40th homer and two singles to boost his batting average to .343 tieing him with Brooklyn's Duke Snider for the league lead. Alvin Dark and Davey Williams also homered off loser Lew BurdeUe in the nightcap. Joe Nuxhall, the only lefthander to beat Brooklyn at Ebbets' Field, did it again with a route going 10 bitter. . The Reds walloped five Brooklyn hurlers for 13 his in cluding home runs by Wally Post, Bobby Adams and Ted Kluszew ;ki. It was Kluszewski's 49th. Only three National Leaguers Hack Wilson 56), Ralph Kiner (54) and Johnny Mize (51) have hit more in a season. 2x8s - $45 per M LOPDAHL LUMBER 6410 So. 6th Phone 8230 Rent A Vacation Travel Trailer Slp u te S - For Informetiee han 5520 ei 7551 POOLE'S J"7,s; Thor Slostad had to close his bowling alley for a few days in Mt.
