Indians May Lose
Youthful Hurler
Wesley Terrell Leaves Game
With Red Sox in First In.
ming With Sore Arm
nv The Associated press\


The Cleveland Indians, leaders of
the American League, find themselves
in a rather tough spot as they open
their stand against the strong eastern
clubs.
The Indians not only have to face
opposition which looks somewhat
stronger than what they have met,
but they may have to meet 1t without
the services Of Wesley Ferrell, king
pin of their pitching staff.
Terrell started against the Boston
Red Sox Friday and retired volun-
tarily in Tie first inning. After giving
three doubles he complained Of q sore
arm.
If Terrell remains out long, Cleve-
land has only Willis Hudlin who has
proved reliable so far. Brown and
Harder have started regularly but sell
dom have finished their games. AS
for relief hurlers. it took three of
them to stop the Red Sox Friday and
they did not succeed until Boston had
put over five runs in the fourth in
ring to win 8 to 4.
The other game which escaped the
weather in the American League Fri
day created a slight disturbance in
the theory that the balance Of power
in the circuit lies in the east. The
Detroit Tigers outlasted Washington
in a. 10-inning mound duel between
Earl Whitehill and Lloyd Brown to
win 3 to 2.
In the National League. two games
were scheduled to wind up the intra-
sectional struggles before the western
teams open in the east Saturday and
one was washed out.
The Brooklyn Dodgers won the
other, making very good use Ut four
hits and eight walks off Stewart Bo-
len to beat the Phillies 4 to 3.

Low Water Level Is Seen As Menace
Fish Life in State ImperiIed as
Result of Drought, Game
Commissioner Says

Three projects aimed at corserva-
ton of North Dakota waters WILL get
Under way soon to combat one OF the
worst drouth periods in the states
history. Burnie Maurek, state game
and fish commissioner, announced
Saturday.
Water levels Of lakes and streams
in the state are at a dangerously low
ebb, MI. Maurek said, and have made
apparent the necessity for conserva-
ton. Stagnation In many lakes has
killed off considerable fish life In re-
cent years, according to the commits
sioner.
The recent legislature enacted leg
islation which will make possible dam
projects on Arrowood Lake near Ed
mond, and Carpenter and Gravel
Lakes in the Turtle Mountain region.
Receive Appropriation
An appropriation Of $1,000 was
provided by the legislature to permit
the state engineer to take such &C
ton as may be necessary to conserve
the water levels and rehabilitating the
streams and brooks in the Turtle
Mountain region" Another measure
sets up machinery for the institution
of condemnation proceedings in con-
nection with the construction of a
dam on Arrowood Lake, for which
$500 has been made available by
the game and fish department, and
a similar amount assured by organi-
cations in the affected region.
The game and fish departments
share for the Arrowood Lake project
has been available for some time, MI.
Maurek said, and easements procured
for the necessary land with one ex-
ception. The law enacted by the leg
islature provides machinery for con-
demnation proceedings against q
"holdout," and this will be started aft
er July l, when the act becomes ef-
fective.
Carpenter Lake at present Is three
feet lower than the natural level, and
stagnation has exterminated consid-
cradle of the fish life. The plan is
to divert waters from q watershed in
to the lake, at a cost estimated at
$1,000. which would be available from
the $1,000 legislative appropriation.
To Fill Lakes
The Carpenter lake project con-
templates filling five lesser lakes
from the overflow, MI. Maurek said.
Gravel lake, at the eastern end of
the Turtle Lake region, has suffered
considerably from drouth, fish life
disappearing during the period of
stagnation. The plan Is to drain
three lesser lakes into Gravel lake
and in this manner bring the lake
back to its normal level. The overflow
would be diverted into Lake Epsilon
on which the st. John fish hatchery
is located.
Mr.. Maurek termed the projects as
"just a beginning" in water conserva-
ton, declaring that there are "un-
limited possibilities" in such work.
This is especially true, he said, In the
Turtle Mountain region.
A fourth project is being consid-
cred at Oak Creek north Of Bottin-
eau. but no definite survey has been
made in this case. Mr.. Maurek said.
The proposal contemplates diversion
of water from the creek to nearby
lakes, and an investigation of its FEAST
bility is expected to be made.
