FENCE CRASHES DO MILLERS NO
 GOOD IN GAMES
Milwaukee Makes 4 Triple Plays in Three Games
 Against Minneapolis

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 10.- Be- tween crashing into the right field wall at the Milwaukee baseball park and setting up triple plays for Mnw3al-ee's Brewers. M,nneap- olis is having a tempestuous time Keeping cut in frclt il' the Am erican Association race.
 Five Nlil.er eatfielders, d doin g their daredevil act in trying to spear drivas off the right field wall in Browertown, cracked dp' in the first three trips to Mil waukee. During this time, the Brewer players clicked off four triple plays, all against the Millers!
 The right field barrier began taking it's toll on the very first day of the season when Outfielder Leo Ogorek hit the boards while chasing Q fly. The next day Dave Barbee duplicated the act. On the second visit to Milwaukee, Buzz Atlett kissed the wall in mighty smash that dented the parapet and dazed the daring heavyweight.
 The string of collisions took a spurt when the Millers appeared in Beerville on their third trip. In successive innings Outfielders Alb Wright and Monk Joyner cracked up against the fence, both having to leave the game.
 The big performer in the wave Of triple plays was Billy Sullivan, Brewer third b2seman and son Of the old White Sox catching star. He started two of the extraordinary stunts.
 Perhaps the beatings the Millers took in pounding the wall aided in the Brewers speciality. Certainly slew work on the paths helped the last one when a ground ball to Sullivan with the bases full brought force outs at third and second with time still remaining to whip the plodding Atlett out at first.

by DR.. Pennoyer F. English OF the
Game Division, State Department
OF Conservation. as being destruct-

DIR. English, who is In charge OF

ed that marsh fires not only kill

destroy excellent cover and feed
ing grounds for many forms OF
wild life. especially phesants and
quail.
Marsh areas with their tall
grasses and dense verdure are ex-
cellent shelter and hiding places
for game birds OF various species
and the burning OF these areas
drives the wild life to other sec
tons where they are easy prey to
predators.

nor to destroy what little cover
that remains by burning them.
