Warden Ovid Holmes at Fox Bragg reports that ranchers say they haven't seen the usual number of deer in that section this year, and have seen a larger than usual percentage of small forked horns. The country is brushy and dogs are needed to rout the deer out. In the Southern counties, waders report the deer are in better shape than last year and fully as many are on hand last year. Because of the early season most of the bucks will be in the velvet yet though. Although more private land than ever is reported posted against hunters, the nimrods will again get a break from the Forest Service, which is keeping open major sections of the Los Padres National Forest. In the Monterey section, around 8000 acres of the Los Padres is open to hunters, who must obtain fire permits before entering the hunting grounds. In the south, all of the Los Padres north of the Cuyama river is open, some on permit basis and some clear. Check with your nearest ranger station for local details. Entry permit stations on Monterey division are located at King City, Arroyo Seco, Chew Ridge, Carmel and Big Sur Guar Stations for the entire season, and at Palo Colorado and The Indian until Sept. 30.

Bobby Schantz Holding Firm Grip On American Earned Run Average NEW YORK. (P)—Wee Bobby Shantz of the Philadelphia Athletics, seeking to become baseball’s sixth triple crown hurler, has a firm hold on the American league earned run today. Averages compiled by the Associated Press reveal that Shantz able righthander, is second to Shantz in the American league with a 1.94 average. Third at 2.11 is New York’s Allie Reynolds. Frank Shea, Washintgon’s rotund righty, is fourth at 2.21. Others NEW YORK. (AP)—Wee Bobby Shantz of the Philadelphia Athletics, seeking to become baseball's sixth triple crown hurler, has a firm hold on the American league earned run lead today. Averages compiled by the Associated Press reveal that Shantz, also the AL's leader in victories 19 and winning percentage .864 boasts a phenomenal 1.53 ERA. The pint sized lefthander who has dropped only three decisions, has permitted only 33 earned runs in 194 innings. If he maintains this torrid pace, Shantz will join such former triple crown greats as Walter Johnson, Grover Cleveland Alexander, Dolph Luque, Lefty Grove, and Carl Hubbell. Roberts in Nats In the National league, right hander Robin Roberts of the Philadelphia Phillies, holds a slight edge over teammate Curt Simmons and Brooklyn's Billy Loes. Roberts, with a 16-6 record, has given up 57 earned runs in 207 frames for a 2.48 mark while both Simmons and Loes show 2.51. Mike Garcia, Cleveland's durable righthander, is second to Shantz in the American league with a 1.94 average. Third at 2.11 is New York's Allie Reynolds. Frank Shea, Washintgon's rotund righty, is fourth at 2.21. Others Billy Pierce, Chicago's southpaw, is fifth at 2.48, followed by Washington's Connie Marrero, 2.65, Joe Dobson of Chicago, 2.76, Bob Porterfield, Washington, 2.77, Cleveland's Bob Lemon, 2.78, and Vic Raschi, New York, 290. Karl Drews, Phillies, is showing surprising ERA form to hold fourth place among National league pitchers at a 2.63 average. Cincinnati's Ken Raffensberger is fifth with 2.68, followed by Carl Erskine of Brooklyn, at 2.69. Chicago's Bob Rush is seventh at 2.89. Rounding out the top 10 are Gerry Staley, St. Louis, 3.00; Warren Spahin, Boston, 3.07; and Brooklyn's Preacher Roe, 3.14. Virgil Trucks, fireballing Detroit pitcher who has hurled a no-hitter and a one-hitter, is 19th with 3.65.

Hunters in general are careful with fire, but there is a certain percentage who do not know how to be careful or don't want to. These few give us trouble." "There were approximately 20 thousand hunters on the forest in the first day of the season last year. It is like an unorganized army turned loose." "It is only because most hunters know how to handle a rifle that there are not more accidents." Let's hope that Lee, and other officials who are working to preserve natural resources will be able to say even better things about sportsmen after this year's seasons. If every hunter will take on himself to see that even is definitely out, and to only when he is sure of what he is shooting, and what he is ing at, California this year have its biggest and safest season, despite the increases that will take to the Stars Topped from PCL First Place By Soaring LA Angels by 1-0 Score By The Associated Press STANDINGS By The Associated Press Pacific Coast League W L Pet GBL Oakland 73 54 .575 Hollywood 72 54 .571 ½ San Diego 70 56 .568 2½ Portland 63 62 .504 9 Los Angeles 68 64 .504 9½ Seattle 60 62 .452 10½ San Francisco 54 72 .425 19 Sacramento 48 79 .378 25 Yesterday's Results Los Angeles I, Hollywood 0.

The Stars staggered through the week with first place still in their possession. It was too much for them to expect Los Angeles to roll over and play dead last night when Hollywood and the Angels opened an eight-game "civil war" series at Wrigley field. Los Angeles won 1-0 with a squeeze play, the very play Hollywood has used so many times this year to win games. Idle Oakland went into first place. Peden Bunts With the bases loaded in the seventh, Catcher Les Peden, the Angels' slowest man, but a long hitter, crossed up the Stars by laying down a perfect bunt. Les Layton, running for Ron Northey, another slow man, was across the plate by the time the ball was retrieved. Hollywood had the bases loaded with one down in the fourth when suddenly, Catcher Mike Sandlock started sprinting for home and was an easy out. Los Angeles made it a double play as Peden threw out Dick Cole going for second. That was the only game scheduled. Beavers Coming Oakland, gaining first place the easy way, now will have to fight to hold it against Clay Hopper's red hot Portland Beavers.

Raschi-Reynolds Team May Take NY to Pennant Remember when Hal New-houser and Dizzy Trout combined their talents to hurl the Detroit Tigers to the 1945 American League pennant. At the time, baseball fans didn't think their great two-fold performance would be matched for some time to come. Don't look now, but Vic Raschi and Allie Reynolds, a pair of New York Yankee moundsmen, are threatening to do it all over again. Posts 11th Straight Raschi tossed his 11th straight win last night, a 1-0 blanking of the Washington Senators that brought his season slate to 13-2. Tonight, Reynolds faces the same Senators in the nation's capital and will be shooting for his 13th in 20 decisions. That means the two Yank righthanders, with 25 wins between them, have accounted for better than '40 per cent of their team's '62 triumphs. Raschi's stint against the Sen- Old Adversaries Team for North-South Grid Game Gene Geselle, all-CIF Anaheim high grid star of last year's Sunset league team, will team with two former adversaries Thursday night in the coliseum as members of the Southern High School All-Stars as they meet the Northern All-Stars in the first annual Shrine football classic. Geselle, standout defensive linebacker on the Colonist squad, will face action as will Santa Monica's quarterbacking Sandy Lederman and end A. D. Williams. The Ramohi squad narrowly defeated the Colonists in a first round CIF playoff last year in the Fullerton stadium. Thursday game, which will take the lid off king football in southern California, will highlight play by the top high school grid stars of southern and northern California. Game time is 7 p.m. and will be preceded by a Shriners' pagant. Approximately 3500 paraders will participate with 30 bands and scores of mounted and marching nits. Among many stars to date volunteering to appear in the pagant are Dennis Morgan, David Wayne, Ann Blythe, Marge and Power Champion, Ida Lupino, Howard Duff, Lloyd Nolan, Florence Chadwick, Alan Young; with Roy Rogers and Dale Evans as sand marshal of the equestrian division. Proceeds from the game and ageant will provide funds for maintenance of the newly completed $2,500,000 Shriners' hospital. Slo-Mo-Shun V Averages 102 Mph On 9-Mile Course SEATTLE (AP) — A rocketing saucer of wood, metal and howling power, the Slo-Mo-Shun V went nine miles at an average speed of 102.564 miles per hour yesterday to qualify for her Saturday defense of the Gold Cup. America's most prized speedboat trophy. Heavy-footed Lou Fageol of Kent, Ohio, pushed the V to an unofficial qualifying record a few minutes after Stanley Dollar qualified the Slo-Mo-Shun IV, holder of the world speed mark of 178.497 miles per hour. Dollar, of San Francisco, drove three laps of the three-mile course at an average 93.023, easily beating the 75 mph minimum required to qualify. LA Pro in Upset Win in Tourney. SOUTH ORANGE, N.J.

Won in Sixth The Yanks won it in the sixth inning when ex-New Yorker Bob Porterfield walked Gil McDougald with the bases loaded to force over Hank Bauer with the game's only tally. Bauer reached base when with one out Mickey Grasso fumbled his tap in front of the plate. Mickey Mantle then moved him to third with a bouncing double over first baseman Mickey Vernon's head, after Yogi Berra filed to Gil Coan. Porterfield then passed Gene Woodling intentionally to load the sacks. So the Yanks are now 3½ games in front of second-place Cleveland and another full game ahead of third-place Boston, both of which were idle last night along with the rest-of-the American League and all of the National. MIDGETS GO SATURDAY The second big step along the road to the classic Gilmore Grand prix will be taken by the mighty midget fraternity Saturday night when the thunderbugs return to action over the half mile Gardena oval.

His onboard today will win last night, a 1-0 blanking of the Washington Senators that brought his season slate to 13-2. Tonight, Reynolds faces the same Senators in the nation's capital and will be shooting for his 13th in 20 decisions. That means the two Yank righthanders, with 25 wins between them, have accounted for better than 40 per cent of their team's 62 triumphs. Raschl's stint against the Senators was one of his top shows of the season. He scattered six hits and fanned eight while walking only one. Win in Tourney. SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. (P)—Noel Brown, a 26-year-old former professional from Los Angeles who won the Southampton Tournament last week to everyone's amazement, may be another flash in the pan, but don't try to tell it to Lewis Hoad. Brown, back in the simon-pure ranks only since December, eliminated the 17-year-old Australian boy wonder in the first round yesterday in the Easter Grass Courts Championships just as he did the top-seeded Straight Clark at Southampton. The scores were 11-13, 11-9, 6-3. The closeness of the match is an indication young Brown is not one to give up easily. Hoad had him at set point twice in the second set, but couldn't make it. Brown came back to take the finale with no trouble. Brown has a well-rounded game as have most of the teaching pros. He has a deceptive service which doesn't look dangerous, but it stays close to the ground and is deadly accurate. His ground strokes are murder and he can volley. His opponent today will be William Tully, an unseeded swinger from Larchmont, N.Y. Oak Players Warned Not to Play Seals SAN FRANCISCO. (P)—Police today said two members of the Oakland Oaks baseball team received a threatening letter after having been involved in free-for-all fight with players from the rival San Francisco Seals July 27. The letter, mailed in San Francisco and signed "The Group of Nineteen," warned Calcher Jay Noble and Infielder Piper Davis to stay away from Seals' stadium for a series between the teams opening Aug. 26. Police reported they had been asked by Oakland Manager Meltt to provide protection tor the players. They plan an investigation. If every hunter will take it up himself to see that every fire definitely out, and to shoot when he is sure of where he shooting, and what he is shooting at, California this year can give its biggest and safest deer season, despite the increased numbers that will take to the hills.
