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.
