SAN FRANCISCO. April 20
R.-Willie Mays. getting his
flrst homer OF the season along

one-man show before 1924

second in a row over the Cubs,
who came 10 town In first place.

not enough for two tables OF
bridge.
Any day now that group could
be infiltrated by a flock OF
confirmed pop-fiy hitters. their
names weakly wedsed among
those who performed the feat
honorably, under exacting con-
ditions, and unaided by n
freakish fence which threatens
10 sap the substance from the
record book.
Those records mean some
thing. Twelve runs batted In by
Sunny Jim Bottomley OF Sthe
Cardinals In 1924, four homers
IN one game by a precious few.
90 homers In one season by the
mighty Ruth. To cheaper them
by constructing a fence that
makes 1t possible for the left
fielder TO shake hands With the
shortstop Is a farce which
Prick must remedy.
There's no hiding from the
situation. II exists. There's a
distinct possibility the Coliseum
screen will erase virtually all
batting marks. It would be a
shame. but Prick has been I'M
willing to face that fact.
An ostrich attitude at this
point is unrealistic and unfor-
givable. Quick notice has been
served by some Of the games
less noted hltters that the Coli
scum screen Is to baseball what
a 4-foot bullseye would be to a
pistol expert at short range.
Baseball is a boys game
played in the majors by men,
but in Los Angeles the leftfield
distance is strictly Little League.

Bartlett Declares Candidacy for Senate

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, R - Alaska due to hold it's first pri- mary election as a state Aug. 26, Delegate E. l.. Bartlett D-Alaskal Friday night twisted the terri tory's political threads into a tangle of ifs and maybes.
 Bartlett, who has served Alas ka in the nations capitol for IA years, had been expected to an- nounce that he was a candidate for either the governorship of the new state or for seat in the US. Senate.
 Speaking before the Fairbanks Democratic Club Friday night, Bartlett said he had decided to file his candidacy for the US. Senate.
 Then he stunned the 300 Demo crats present with a qualification which amounted to a blunt battle challenge to Territorial Governor Mike Stepovich, Republican.
 Bartlett said if Stepovich be- comes a candidate to be the first elected governor of the state of Alaska, he, Bartlett, would with draw his Senate candidacy and file for governor. Stepovich, who has not indi- cated his political intentions, also had been expected to announce for either the governorship or the Senate.
 Bartlett's announcement set up an almost certain battle between the two party leaders for either the Senate or the governorship in the Alaska general election Nov 25.
 Stepovich, appointed to the governorship of this huge north ern territory by President Eisen- hover last July, is the first na- tive-born Alaskan to head the territory.
 Stepovich and Bartlett both made their homes here before launching their political careers. Stepovich was a territorial sena- tor when he was tapped for the governors chair.
 Bartlett, before going to Wash ington, DC, served as territorial secretary.

JUNEAU, R n Delegate E. L. Bartlett said Saturday he would be a candidate for the United States Senate from Alaska with no strings attached"
 His surprise announcement, during a stopover at the Juneau airport, removed him from pos sib1e contest with Republican Gov. Mike Stepovich for the job as first elected governor of the new state.
 After brief but sufficient re- flection," he said, T have come to the conclusion that a candid acy such as this should have no strings attached. Therefore I now reaffirm my candidacy for the Senate without conditions of any kind"

National Budget Shows S2 Million Deficit on June 30

WASHINGTON, R m The gov- ernment said today the national budget was in the red by $2,813,8 ,80O,O00 at the end of the fiscal year last June 30.
 The deficit was recorded after two fiscal years in which the governments budget books were in the black.
 As recently as last January, President Eisenhower estimated the budget for the 1858 fiscal year ended June 30 would be in the red by only 400 million dol lars.
 Receipts during the fiscal year totaled $69,100,OOO,OOO, down nearly two billion dollars from fiscal 1857. The drop was caused largely by the recession slump in earnings of businesses and in- dividuals.
 Budget spending during the l2 months total $71y9OO,OOO an increase of 215 billion dollars over the previous fiscal year.
 Spending was boosted by post Sputnik emphasis on defense, on anti-recession programs and later outlays under the farm price SUD- port program.
 For the new fiscal year which began July l, officials are esti- mating a budget deficit of 10 to 12 billion dollars.

Forest Fires Burn Uncontrolled In
 British Columbia

VANCOUVER, B.C., R - A shroud of smoke five miles thick hung over northern British Co., lurnbia today where fires burned uncontrolled over an estimated one million acres.
 The smoke forced fire fighters to stand by helplessly. All air craft were grounded, making it impossible to spot outbreaks.
 Sun, wind and lightning teamed to make the situation what chief district forester D. B. Taylor described as the worst he has seen in his 37 years exper- fence.
 lightning caused fires are breaking out everywhere and we just haven't the equipment to fight them," Taylor said.
 He said the provincial govern ment already has spent more than one million dollars this year in fighting fires in the parched woodlands. That is ten times more than was spent throughout 1857.
 Showers dampened the 800,000 acre blaze in the Lower Post area of the British Columbia Youkon border yesterday. But in the Prince George district the situ- ation was completely out of hand with more than one million acres going up in smoke.
