Elk in the' Desolation and middle fork of the John Day River areas will be moving to higher eleva tions. Main roads are slick but passable. Some mountain roads are impassable. Hunters have been having better luck in the Heppner unit. Some of the better areas as Madison Butte, Bear Creek, Opal Butte, Ditch Creek, north fork of the John Day River, Ellis and Big and Little Potamus. Chains are required for travel on roads. The Wheeler and Ochoco units are fair for antlerless elk and should improve with adverse weather. Heavy snow in the high er mountains of the Umatilla dis trict has moved elk to lower ele vations. Hunting has been poor for bulls, fair for either-sex ner- mit holders in the Starkey unit and fair to good in the Umatilla unit in the vicinity of Kamela Mt. Emily. Hunting pressure has dropped in Wallowa County. Waterfowl Hunting has im proved as a few ducks and geese have moved to the Columbia Riv er.

Markham made the suggestion when he at tended the installation of officers at a meeting held last month. It was also decided at the meet ing to limit the Klamath Falls Babe Ruth League members to teams within the limits of t h e Klamath Union High School Dis trict. The city league will consist of two divisions made up of teams competing in the American and National leagues last season. The board and officers expressed their willingness o work with Kemnitzer and outlying districts in forming a new league to encompass the county teams. The new league is to be called the Klamath Basin Babe Ruth League, it was report ed. The group also voted to make the winning coach in both the Ameri can and National leagues an auto matic selection for coach of the All-Star teams necessary for tour nament play. The winning coach will choose his own assistant. The two of them will choose the All- Star team with the assistance of the other coaches in each division. All selections will be subject to the approval of the board of direc tors. A date for the next meeting of the group hinges on the reply of the state officials in regard to the tournament plan.

One of thp Ifi nLivor tativrs told The Associated Press Wednesday the players already have discussed "the possibility of taking dias'ic action," should their demand for a 25 per cent cut be turned down by the club owners. The player, who asked not to be identified, declined to say what such drastic action might be. League representatives Robin Roberts and Eddie Yost have boon authorized to ask the own ers for a quick reply to their de mand when the major leagues: meet next monih at Washington The players are asking for a slice of rcg'ilar season revenues They already receive 60 per cent of the 3'a million dollars baseball receives for TV and radio rights to the All Star game and World Series. That cut goes to the play-! crs' fund. Player representatives will meet in Washington Dec. 1 lo decide a course of action. "We don't want to draw any conclusions," the player informant said, "until we know the owners' reaction. But we do mean to back up our demands. We'd look ridic ulous if we didn't." Roberts told the AP he did not expect any difficulty with the owners. "Their gross income, be cause of television, has gone up tremendously during the past sev eral years." he said. "Baseball salaries have gone up too. but not nearly in ratio with the clubs' earnings." A report sent to all major league players by their attorney. J. Norman Lewis, showed more than a 10-million-dollar increase in the clubs' gross income from 1950 through 1956. The report stated that player salaries in creased only $230,000 during that span. The report listed major league gross revenue at $32,035,481 in 1950 and $42,836,327 in 1956. Play er salaries totaled $5,291,850 in 1950. according lo the report, and $5,521,515 in 1956.

The hustling, durable Philadel phia fighter announced Iwo days ago he aims to retire Flanagan from boxing. But Del is a slight favorite. "I've beaten him twice, the last time in St. Paul where nobody ever heat him before, Turner said. "He can run if he wants to tonight but he isn't going to win."

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Moaning coaches aren't exactly a phenomenon in Pacific Coast Conference lootball. But the an guished cries at the moment over injured players seem to have reached crescendo proportions in some quartet's. Stanford's Jack Curtice echoed this theme when he asked Wed nesday, "don't we ever get a break?" What he actually meant was: "Why did wc have to get that break in Jim Byrer's left foot?" Curtice had scheduled no-contact drills this week in the hope none of his Berkeley-bound Indians would be hurt. But Byrer, a senior and a start er at left half, managed to get a foot bone broken anyhow in a running play Wednesday. He'll be replaced by Rick McMillen or Skip Face when Stanford meets California Saturday. Curtice's troubles appear minor. though, when you listen to Trojan Don Clark talk about his quarter back shortage at Southern Cali fornia. Then there's UCLA, which came up with the oad news Wednesday that first string tailback Chuck Kendall, already troubled with a sore knee, has a wrist injury, too. Kendall, 'he Bruins reported, will definitely not be a starter against USC. Bill Kilmer, who has logged only Wi minutes of var sity ball this year, was tabbed to sub for Kendall. Also on the ailing and doubtful list at UCLA are left end John Brown and guard Dave Dabov. In the northern reaches of the PCC, no fresh hurls were detailed Wednesday. But the Washington Huskies and the Washington State Cougars had their problems too- weather. Coach Jim Owens gave his Huskies another mud bath Wed nesday, otherwise described as a stiff defensive drill. Owens is as suming nothing short of a blizzard will keep WSC from throwing its whole attack at his team in Spo kane Saturday. Rain in Pullman shoved the Cougars into their fieldhouse. But the rugged WSC gridders managed to accomplish a tough defensive workout nevertheless on .the dry dirt floor. End Bill Steiger and guard Angelo Brovelli rejoined the squad and the Cougars now are expected to be at full strength Saturday. At Corvallis, Oregon Stale's Tommy Prothro pre-empted the basketball team s floor in the OSC coliseum for an indoor practice behind locked doors. The Beaver football team worked in sweat clothes and gym shoes. By going indoors, Prothro not only kept spectators away but saved the football turf already cut up hy earlier practices in heavy rain.

Meantime, the Beavers' arcl rivals, the University of Oregoj Ducks, divided up in groups at Eugene.

He conceded afterwards that Tom Maudlin and rookie Bon Charles both looked fair. Maudlin has been having shoulder pain and Charles tossed with a split mid-: die finger received in practice earlier.
