The regular buck season was tentatively set .for Oct. 4 through Oct. 26. The commission will announce final hunting regulations after a public hearing July 25. The unit hunt system, which will replace the hunter's choice system of previous years, stipu lates that doe or fawn hunters nuist apply to the Game Commis sion to hunt in one of 60 herd ranges. The commission then will decide the number of hunters per mitted in each area and permits will be issued after a drawing. The commission also proposed a liberal bag limit on upland game birds, a sage grouse season for the first time in five years and elk seasons similar to last year. The entire state except for cer tain refuges and closures would be included in the proposed buck season with a bag limit of one buck with at least forked antlers west of the Cascades and visible antlers in the rest of the state. The unit hunt' season will allow permit holders to shoot one deer Longacres Set For 25 G Run SEATTLE (AP) - Count Chic nnd How Now, a couple of gal- lrpers ot wide repute, head a list of 57 nominees tor the 1958 run ning of the $25,000 Longacres Mile.

Last Sunday, Klamath knocked "No-Hit" Hayes from the mound after three innings, but the Grants. Pass athlete traveled all night to get to the game from a trip and was reportedly not in too good of shape. Facing Hayes will be Klamath's ace righthander Blake Griggs. A win in this afternoon's first game would give Klamath the title for the District -3 Southern Oregon race regardless of what Grants Pass does in its remaining league game against Medford. Klamath could still tie for the crown if they lose today, should Medford whip Grants Pass next Sunday after noon. A playoff game would then be needed to advance one of the two Southern Oregon clubs into the state playoffs. Should Klamath win the title, it ould be the first legion champion ship here in three years. Hatfield said he would be start ing Dick Moore behind the plate receiving Griggs' tosses this after noon. The infield starters will find Eslin Kiger at third and Dean Dunson at first. Steve Binney and Smiley Hcrrera will draw the nods at the keystone combination short and second. In the outfield will probably be Bob Yunck. Bill Worlein and ei ther Ken Womer, Glynn Michaels or Keith Ferrell. Ferrcll will be Hatfield's first choice should Griggs need relief help.

Besides the Yreka-Weed crucial and Klamath's game at Scott Val ley, the other Northern Cal game pits Mount Shasta at Dunsmuir. Klamath will be attempting to shake loose a three game losing streak that has dropped them from two games in front of the pack down to two full games behind the leader in fourth place. Ail this took place in a period of two weeks while the Kubs were unable to get by Weed, Yreka and Mount Shasta. Manager Irv Whitt hopes he has the problem solved and will be expecting to get a "new look" from his club in today s game against the Stars at Fort Jones. Klamath beat Scott Valley in the last outing 5-4, but not before the Stars threw a last-inning scare into the Kuhs via Bob Martin's grand-slam home run. Martin will be the big gun in Scott Valley's hopes of handing the Kubs their fourth consecutive de feat. Besides his hitting, Martin also shares his team's pitching duty. Whitt wasn't decided as lo who will throw today's game against the stars but hinted little Wayne Hironaka might get the call. If Hirnnaka doesn't throw, it'll be either Dave D Olivo or Charlie Bogle, a righthander and lcfthand- respectiveiy. wnitt also an nounced that he will have the serv ices of Ron Owings, local baseball product who is home from a short stay in professional baseball ranks this season. Owings was recently released by Las Vegas and the Pittsburgh Pirates who signed him lo a bonus contract last snnns. He might be starting behind the plate catching. Other starters for Klamath will he the same, with only one or two changes. At first will be heavy hitting George Hanson. Second base will be covered by either Jerry Burke or Ron Conner with Dorm Martin working at shortstop. Third base chores will belong to Conner if he doesn't start at sec ond. If the ex-Pelican baseball star moves to second, Mike McKenzie will be at third. In the outfield. Whilt said he will open with Donn Taucher in center Hoyd Ltnderman, one of the team s top hitters, in right and either himself or McKenzie in left, depending upon how the infield lines up. The Weed Sons will be battling to get into a tie for the league ieaa on ineir own base paths to day when they host Yreka. The heavy-hitting Weed nine got off to a slow start tnis year, but in recent weeks has been rapping the league's pitchers with solid and numerous base hits and runs. Mount Shasta is expected to main tain its third place position and possibly mine up on Yreka's league-leading position should the Seals top the Dunsmuir Merchants and the Indians bow to Weed. Klamath prepared for the Scott Valley game with a non-league home encounter against Prinevillc Saturday night at Gem Stadium. Next Satiday evening at Gem. Whitt's club will take on the trav eling comics of the baseball dia mondthe Cuban Giants. This is one of the special features the Kuhs board of directors has planned for local sports fan. San Francisco Los Angeles LTOLZLT Sunday, July 13, 1958 from ') fa Things with I local lasts A big round of plaudits Shidler, local sporting goods dealer, who turned in a fine showing in last week's national amateur retriever field trial championships held at San Rafael, California. Shidler s black Labrador in his fourth "national" and the full number of series required to be a national cham pion. On three other occasions twice in the amateur anil once in the open Hal directed his retriever through nine of the 10, but just missed the final go-around. Rut not so this time. Zcke did a very creditable job and placed high among those that finished wilh some very good land and water work. Only a cham pion is named and no second, third or fourth places awarded. The honor of finishing in a national is a high one indeed. The trial had a fatal climax tor another Oregon retriever handler who looked as if he was on his way to be the state s first nation al amateur winner. George Dukek had handled his Lab, Kingdale's Shaddrack. into a very substantial lead over the first nine series and needed only to do a fair job in the 10th. a long double, but noth ing too hard. The dog. which ev erybody had conceded the title to. failed. He got both diras, dui oniy after a poor showing. As it was, Dukek's dog missed the title by a slim two points re ported an unofficial source. Going inlo the final series the dog led by a large margin and a four or five rating, which is only average, would have won it for him. That's about as close as you can cornel to winning, yet not gain the win ner s circle. Also from the annual amateur national comes word from trial committeemen, owners and hand lers and national retriever officials that Jim Stilwell, another Klamath Falls businessman, did a very good job in judging the five-day trial. Stilwell was the only Westerner on the judging board of three with the Midwest and East also represented. The Northern California League is not just a hit and miss semi pro circuit as many sports fans think. The NCL boasts some very good young ball players who are on their way up and a few "old pros" who still pack plenty of ability for Sunday baseball along with a fair amount of experience.
