night will launch a three-game
series with the f1rst-place Boston

1t was last Friday that the Mats
figured prominently in greasing

from first place by splitting a
double-header to keep New York S

capitalized on that good fortune
sweeping three games from the
Yankees to grasp the American

time this year.
Boston moved in front yester'
day at Yankee Stadium by beat

After Umpire Grieve called

"The runner slid under Houk
and that's all there is to it. Sure.
I could have made the easy call,
giving it to the home club; but in
my heart, I know I made the
right call.
"Houk was on the first base

side blocked"
Pesky. naturally. agreed.
II was safe," he said. "He tagged
me up here on my side. The ball
beat me, but Houk seemed to
freeze. he didn't even block the

There was indignation in Yam

Houk had the plate blocked.

Worth of H.H. Land

To be decided in Kalispell on OF

of the 100 acres formerly owned
by Mamie C. Bockover just back

campsite, and the % acres for
merly owned by the Rocky Noun

Federal Judge Charles N. Pray
in Great Falls this week ruled
that the land is needed for carry
ing on the building Of Hungry
Horse dam. Last July, the project
obtained titles to the two tracts,
and the March 80 of a BOARD Of

determine the value.
Previously the Bockover family

offer in excess of $500 an aero
for this land Il mile off U. S.

The Hungry Horse damsite itself
and the entire reservoir area is
being built on national forest SER
vice lands. Private holdings, few in

This raise was from $1.25 AT

President to Recommend Big Appropriation

Monday when President Harry
Truman presents his budget mes
sage to congress, he is likely to
recommend that congress appro-
pirate considerably more than last
years $14,611,65O for continuance
of Hungry Horse dam building.
A year ago the president re-
commended to congress that So
$4,000 be appropriated for the
first year of dam construction.
The house of representatives in
May trimmed this to $8,100,O00.
Then came the Vanport flood, in
creased power shortage in the Pa
cific Northwest, and poorer re-
lationships with Russia Hungry
Horse, furtherest upstream of Col
umbia river BODYBUILDING reser-
voirs, came through with it's SD
Gil, $50 for the 1948-49 fiscal year.
Meanwhile on April 81, the
prime contract for construction
of the dam itself and powerhouse
structure was let to General-Shee-
combination of II COM
panies, for $43,431, 900.
This January sees little concern
in the Hungry Horse area over
appropriations as compared to
previous years. At this time two
years ago, some of the more eau
thus residents still doubted that
the dam would be built, and the
appropriation of $2,5OO,OOO for the

fought especially by private power

The cold December and early

Mcdonald actually gets a COM

does. The 1947 date was Febru-
