Game SET Back,

Series Lead
Help for New Yorks
Also Seen in Four

NEW YORK, Sept. e.-Bao
weather at a good time has given
the New York Yankees the only
break they've sustained this sea-
son which hasn't required
physicians attention.
Regardless of the outcome ol
today's tussle with their foremost
challengers, the Boston Red Sox
the Yankees lead will be secure
at least for the moment. Rain
yesterday assured the Yankees OF
no worse than a 1la-game lead
when the Red Sox leave town and
the margin could mount to 312
games by sundown.
Manager Casey Stengel didn't
disguise his contentment when a
shower forced postponement, for
with Washington invading for
successive double-headers tomor-
row and Sunday there was ample
excuse for delaying the washed
out contest with Boston until later
in the stretch drive rather than
double up today.
Injured Have Chance to Heal.
The Yankees will have five
games remaining with Boston after
today's test, but the earliest of
these won't roll around until Sep
tember "a, by which time some Of
Stengel's battered athletes are
calculated to recover from numer-
GUS and assorted ailments.
Tommy Heinrich, outflelder-f1rst
baseman who was feared lost for
the season due to back injury.
is responding favorably to treat
ment and may crash the Yankees
lineup within two weeks. First
Baseman Johnny Mize, nursing a
shoulder injury. should be fit soon
along with Outfielder Hank Bauer,
sidelined with strained abdominal
muscle.
Then, too, Yogi Berra may have
his hitting tuned when the clubs
clash again. The squat catcher
returned to duty Wednesday night
for the first time in a month, his
batting eye unadjusted after en-
forced idleness because of bro
ken thumb.
Crisis Passed, Stengel Feels.
Stengel feels the Yankees won
the key game of the stretch run
Wednesday night and likes his
chances of finishing on top. 'The
other night it was Joe Page, Bill
Johnson and Bobby Brown who
came through for us" declared
Casey. I'm Philadelphia it was
Joe Di Maggie hitting a homer
with three on to give us a lift.
That's the way it has been all
season. Somebody always steps
in to take up the slack. If it isn't
Di Maggie, it's Phil Rizzuto COM
ing through with a great play to
save us. That's the kind of a
team it has been and I don't think
things will change"

Cambria was working the Cuban beat IN
those days and when he showed up at the Sen
ators' training camp in Orlando in the late
1s3Os with Carrasquel in tow he actually thought
he'd stumbled across still another Cuban. 1t was
later, when Carrasquel was exposed by true
Cubans in the Washington camp as Venezue-
Ian, that that fame touched little Joe Cambria
and he became known as the first legitimate
South American to make the grade in the majors
Now Carrasquel wasn't good, nor was ne
bad. He couldn't speak word OF EngAsh at

ferred to speak only when absolutely necessary.

EARLY PINK SALMON RUNS ARE Sp0TTY, SAYS FW5 DIRECTOR

Early salmon runs in lowe Southeast Alaska are very spotty according to Clarence J. Rhode, di' rector of the Fish and Wildlift Service
 "some streams he said today "are making a definitely gooc showing, while others, where fish usually run consistently well, pre- sent blank spots in the preseason picture.'
 Joint daily surveys are being conducted by the Service and the Alaska Salmon Industry, Inc, fol- lowing a meeting Friday in which operators asked for an early open ing of the commercial fishing sea- son in specified areas, most of which are scheduled to open next Monday.
 "A lot of streams beyond Anan Creek have been seeded since the first request came for opening of that stream" said Rhode today That wouldn't have happened ii Anan had been opened up.
 If it appears that overspawnine is imminent, of course the streams can be opened early" he con- tinued. We have to look at the overall picture, not several iso- lated streams"
 heturns Sunday
 George Kelez, FWS supervisor of Fisheries, returned late Sunday with Rhode from trip to the west ward, and flew out this morning with Nick Beg, salmon packer, for a survey of the Southeast Alaska streams in question. These are chiefly in the Stikine district.
 Returning from Anchorage last week, Rhode stopped at Cordova where there was a question of ex- tending the season beyond its scheduled closing last Saturday at am. 3
 Packers, fishermen and FWS of- ficials met there Friday, and the concensus was that extension was not warranted. Rhode reports that the fishermen themselves take the lead there in supporting conserva- ton measures.
 Tt looks like a pretty good year for Cordova," Rhode reported to- day. "The season was good for clans and red salmon, and the run of pinks was better than last year This run should be about 25 per- cent under the cycle year d94D," :" he added.
 Rhode also reports that ground is being moved for the new FWS hangar at Anchorage, and fast pro- gress is expected. thanks to Army cooperation.

 The offer was for Chinook sal- mon caught before Aug 10. For Chinook caught from Aug. 10 to the end of the season, expected Aug. 26, the offer was 18 cents a pound. The union has been asking B cents until Aug. 10 and 181a cents thereafter.

This marked the second time MAJ

a South African legislative body.
Last winter they elected Sam Kahn

Natives must elect White men to
represent in legislatures because Of
the constitution which says natives
may be elected only to advisory
bodies.

Sales Tax Fine.points CIorified
Tax on Horsemeut for Example

Stores which find themselves
with two registration certificates
under the sales tax act because the
accountant and his boss both ap-
piled without the others knowl-
ege, may write an explanation on
the duplicate and send it back.
Anyone who buys back his prop
erty from a pawnbroker's ex-
change has to pay a sales tax on
the price he pays to get it back.
Sales of dogs, cats, goldfish and
other creatures for pets are tax
able, and so is their food. But
services to pets are not.
Regular telephone callers to the
division are a Washington watt
ress and her boss who cannot
seem to agree on how to handle
the sales tax. One calls, then the
other. And tax clerks gather,
bitter arguments are sandwiched
between the calls. The waitress,
in fact, has threatened to quit her
job If her employer continues to
disagree with her about the tax.
And some people who call up
are downright belligerent.

clerk, "are you going to do with
this tax money? How do you
know you'll get all the money
we're paying as taxes?"

Congress granted an appropria-

this year, and the two new load

Mr.. Xanten says the District
needs at least six leaders for a
