The Oregon Ducks faded in the
closing minutes of a rough-Aoagb
Northern Division Pacific Coast
Conference basketball clash vviti
Washington State College last n'gh;
to give the Cougars a 50-43 vie ory
and a firmer grip on the division’s

Washington into second, and sef
the stage for a key clash tonight in i

have Washington State far ahead j
of the pack.

JOPLIN, Mo., Feb. 6- .PI—Chare j
(Gabby) Street, former major j
league baseball player and manager j
died today. He was 68.
Street, manager of the St Loui j
Cardinals irr the early 1930;., ha.
been in a weakened conditi ;n sine; :
;ii operation last mirner.
With a few changes recommend- [
ed in the trapp; .; of small fui
bearing animals the Alaska Gam
Commission hunting and trappin1
regulations now in effect appeared
in the. majority to be general!;
satisfactory in the southern divi
ion from the conclusions at hear
ings in Wrangell and Ketchikan
held last week bv Dan Ralston,
lame Enforcement Supervisor for
the Fish and Wildlife Service, lie
-aid this morning. Ralston returned
•\er the weekend from the south
ern division.
It was the unanimous opinion a:
i;cth the Wrangell and Ketchikan
hearings that the season remain
the same- for hunting deer, moose,
cat and bear, Ralston said.
At both meetings hunters report
-d an increase in the deer popula
tion and a fine crop of fawns this
season in the southern division.
It was recommended at each
hearing that the wolf control or
better knewn as the predator con
t;ol program be increased in south
east Alaska.
Trappers at Ketchikan and Wran
gell recommended that the mink
season be opened next season. Ral
ston said they feel that the mini
population is in good condition
end warrants a harvest next year.
It was recommended that the sea
son on mink, land otter and weasel
be open from December 15 ,to Jan
uary 15 in that district. Mink trap
ping is closed this year.
To eliminate the possibilities of
poaching during a closed season
it was recommended that mink skins
be sealed and a limit of 30 skins
to each trapper be set. There is
no limit on the take at the present
time.
Raltson said there was some
controversy on opening the season
for trapping beaver which is r.ow in
its third year of closure. Trappers
were divided in opinions as to whe
ther the population of the beaver is
yet great enough to warrant an
open season. It was then recom
mended, he said, that the beaver
season be open from April 1 to
April 30.
A report of the game regulations
hearings at Ketchikan and Wran
gell and recommendations made will
be 'presented to the Alaska Game
Commission at its annual meeting,
scheduled to be open in Juneau
February 12.
