 DUCKS GIVEN
Regulations Are Signed by Presidernf- -Sporfsmen.
 on Coast Get Break
By Vern Haugland

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29-,Rt-Pre- sident Truman signed the annual duck-hunting regulations today and gave Pacific Coast sportsmen break.
 The 1850 rules heightened the duck-hunting season in the Pacific flyway-the west coast states and Idaho, Utah, Nevada and Arizona by five days, and increased the daily bag limit.
 They reduced waterfowl seasons in the Mississippi flyway a like amount because of signs of a small CT supply of birds.
 Albert M Day, director of the Fish and Wildlife Service, called the Pacific flyway changes "an ex- pertinent in an area that can stand it because there are more birds per hunter there than in any other"
 The seasons, in summary, include.
 Alaska-In the Second and Fourth Judicial Divisions, Sept. to oct 25. In the Third Judicial Division except the Kodiak -Afognak Island group, Sept. 7-Oct. 31. In the First Judicial Division and the Kodiak Afognak Island group, Oct. 1-Nov 24, provided that Scoter and Elder ducks also may be taken in the Se- cond and Fourth Judicial Divisions from Sept. to Oct. 31 and in the Third Judicial Division west of 15l degrees west longitude from Sept. to Dec. 21.
 The bag limit for Scoters and Elders is 10 day singly or in the aggregate of all kinds, and not more than 20 ducks singly or in the ag- gregate in possession. Wood ducks-in Alaska, limit k one wood duck in bag or possession Closed seasons include: On mourn ing doves in Alaska.

CLOSE RACE IS SEEN IN
 AMER. LEAG.
(By Associated Press)

So you thought those recent tWo- team dead heats in the American National Leagues were hot stuff
 Pooh they were just routine fin ishes compared to what may happen this year. For those who are looking for real, honest-to-goodness, spine tingling excitement, how about a four-way deadlock for first place?
 Don't scoff. It could happen. The way the American League race has been moving along it wouldn't cause too much of a surprise should De- troit, New York, Cleveland and Bos- ton wind up all even on the evening of Oct. 1-the regular seasons fin al day.
 Get closeup of the last two days of the campaign. The Tigers will be host to the Indians on Saturday, Sept. 30 and Sunday, Oct. l. The same two afternoons, the Red Sox will tangle with the Yankees in Bos- ton.
 Here is the picture today:
 Detroit is on the top with 34 games left to play. New York is se- cond, one game behind, with 32 left to play. Cleveland is third, one game behind New York, with 30 to play.
 Boston is fourth, one game be- hind Cleveland, also with 30 to go.
 Boston was the only one of the big four to win yesterday. The Red Sox came from a mile behind to outlast the Indians, 15-14. Detroit bowed to Philadelphia's oft-beaten Athletics, 4-3. The Chicago White Sox upset the Yankees, GA.
 Singularly, only one homer was among the collection of 30 base hits in the Sox- Indians affair. But that was the big one. It was hit by Al Zarilla to provide Boston with its final run. Bob Teller, third of four Cleveland pitchers, was the loser.
 Outfielder Sam Chapman, who batted the As to victory over the Tigers Sunday, did it again yester- day. His double in the sixth scored Philadelphia's third and fourth runs
 Ray Scarborough's six hit pitch ing plus two-run homer by out fielder Gus ZerniaI kept the Tank ees from virtual tie for first place
 Philadelphias Phillies increased their first place margin over Brook lyn in the National League to five and-a-half games. The Phils split a doubleheader in Chicago while St. Louis Cardinals were taking the second straight from the Dodgers 3-1. In the Philadelphia Chicago bill, the Cubs won the first 75 and the Phils the second, 9-5.
 A home run by Homer Howell with two out in the last of the ninth gave Ewell Blackwell and the Gin cinnati Reds a 3-2 victory over the New York Giants.
 Young Jim Pearce pitched shut out ball for eight innings as Wash ington defeated the St. Louis Browns, 9-3.
 Pittsburgh and the Boston Braves were not scheduled.

With one exception, the major
league teams were catching their
breath today while the scenery was
being shifted in the sizzling pen
nant races in both the American
and National Leagues.
In the American the teams were
going West, the Tigers going home
with only narrow 112-game hold
on first place.
In the National, the teams were
coming East with the Phils sched-
uled play the last-place Pirates
tonight for the only contest in
the two circuits. The Whiz Kids
whizzed into first place in by a
half-game margin by a double
win yesterday over the Reds.
The Cards. who defeated the
Braves yesterday. are breathing on
the Phils' neck and If the Kids
can defeat Pittsburgh tonight
they will open their home stand
tomorrow with q one-game hold
on the lead. If they lose tonight
they will be. deadlocked with the
Cards.
Tigers Snatch Victory.
The Tigers, who cleaned up on
the road the last time they were
East, found the going tougher this
time and retained their first
place position yesterday only by
Snatching one-run victory from
the Yanks after two were out in
the ninth.
Even at home. the Tigers won't
be able to take it easy. Not overly
successful at Briggs Stadium this
year, the Tigers open against the
slugging Red Sox, who are 61a
games out. The Indians, who are
closing fast, now are only 3la
games out of first place. They
open against the AS.
At the moment, many thing the
Phils are the team to beat in the
National League.
The lone fly in the ointment is
the imminent departure of Curt
Simmons, 21-year-old star left
handler for tour of duty with the
National Guard. Simmons leaves
July % for a 14-day hitch at
Indiantown Gap, Pa. During this
spell the Phils are at home for II
games.
18th Win for Simmons.
Simmons recorded his 18th VIC
tory yesterday when he cooled off
the Reds.
The $65, 900 bonus beauty turned
back the Reds, 1874, in the opener.
The Phils took the second, IA,
behind Russ Meyer and Jim Kon-
stanty to snap their tie with the
Cardinals for the top rung. The
Cards beat the Braves, ga, in a
single encounter. -
The proceedings were enlivened
when fist fight between Connie
Ryan of the Reds and Jones broke
out in the third inning of the
second game. Play had to be
halted for almost 10 minutes.

from the game, but not before vir-
