to release darker red Mongolian
and black mutant pheasants be-
fore the 1851 spring nesting sea-
son as a means of further test
ing the worth of stocking the
field with regular game farm
ringnecks.
More definite information on

duction purposes and on a put

goal" explains r, l. Blouch, d.
vision pheasant specialist.
Offspring of the two varieties
will be easily identified by
hunters because of the carry
over of the color characteristics.
Since darker reds and the
blacks are essentially no differ
ent except for coloring, Blouch
points out, there is no reason to
attempt to establish them SIM
ply as new hunting stock.
To start the project going the
divisions Mason game farm.
this spring, will try to get up
to 1000 cocks and hens from
the 200 fe m a e and 40 male
darker reds and blacks now on
hand. Stock bred would be held
until 1851 spring and then
turned loose In selected areas.
Game men will check on the
birds during the summer and
examine take of hunters in the
fall.
Game farm workers also plan
a series of controlled crosses
this year. Small lots of both
IS exes of mutants, Mongolians
and ringnecks will be crossed
in all possible combinations.
No black pheasants have been
released in Michigan, but few
Mongolian specimans have been
liberated at dog field trails the

In the feature game OF the

the Surface Combustion team

was fouled by Joe Horvath of

Skatingvanities
Is A Fine Show

Skating VanltleS OF 1SoU rolled
through two and one-haf hours
of d delightful ] entertainment
Thursday night at the Toledo
Sports Arena and, while II
seems that every type of skat-
ing show advertises that 1t Is al
ways "all new and different"
Vanities has brought us many
startling changes, unique novel
ties and a show which must be
classed as the best ever offered
here.
There Is a familiar lit to the
entire show-no doubt the re-
suit of Gae Fosters superb di-
rection. Yet, somehow, it is COM
pletely different than others,
either on rollers or on ice-and
1t is truly refreshing.
Gloria Nord again has the
star role and, while her werk Is
not as spectacular as that OF
some of the many brilliant
youngsters, she has a touch of
showmanship, a bit Of glamour,
a sincerity of purpose and such
polished craftsmanship that she
makes the different seem pleas
ing and restful.
Peggy Wallace scored heavi-
ly with her Navajo Indian Sun
Dance, while Norman Latin
gave a nerve-tingling exhibition
of acrobatics on skates, and to-
gether they rate their billing
as the worlds greatest team
amateur or professional"
Eileen Mcdonnell, now In her
third season as a soloist with
this organization, which last
summer amazed critics In
France, Switzerland, and Eng
land, reached new heights In
the lavish Symphony In Pink
and with the eclat delivery In
the Atlantic City Beach number.
Rose Piccola and Tony Mirel-
II whirled through a sizzling
adagio, while Mirelli teamed
with Ernie Wettler for some re-
marksble leaps and acrobatics
on skates.
This edition of Skating Vani-
ties was so richly costumed, so
well lighted and so excellently
produced that detailed descrip-
tions of the seven feature pro-
duction numbers featuring 60
we'll trained, eye-filling girls,
would run us out of space.
Those which caught our fancy
particularly were the Yuletide
Festival, the Spanish Fiesta, the
unrivalled Symphony in Pink
and the joyous Atlantic City
Beach Frolic.
Those who saw Skating Vani-
ties of 1946 may recall the walk
ing balls with delight, and to
those who haven't seen the
clever girls maneuver their way
around the floor 1t will be a
revelation, feature which,
combined with the bouncing ba-
looms, made the beach scene a
memorable one.
Il
Skating Vanities will be
shown nightly at $50 thru Sun
day, April 2, with matinees Sat-
urday and Sunday at 2:30.

Detrolts Tigers, tougn clup
at the finish last season and a
team which many observers fig
ure could take II all, will tell
Dick Kryhoski to take over first
base like he owned the bag when
training opens and the big for
mer Yankee, who hit 1928 for
Oakland and nearly 800 for the
Yanks last season, could be

with Little Rock in 1949, is

AL Widmar won % games for
Baltimore last season, that total
being high for wins in the In
ternational league. His eight
shutouts also were tops for the
circuit and the st. Louis Browns
rate him highly in their 1850
size-up. Sid Schacht, a 19-game
winner with Scranton, and Ed
AlbreSht, 29-game winner with
Pine Bluff, Ark, who struck out
no fewer than 800 men last year,
are other standout hopefuls
who'll report to Manager Zack
Taylor at Burbank, Cal.

Athletics, strengthened by the
acquisition of third-b m n
Bob Dillinger from the Browns,
are counting on pitcher Bob
Hooper, a 19-game winner last
season with Buffalo. Outfielder
Ben Guintini, up from Dallas
with .306 bat mark, and Ker-
nit Wahl from Montreal, an in
fielder who hit .286 for the Roy
