Missoula = Weather and grades
will play an important factor in
Montana's baseball fortunes this
spring. Although Missoula expert
enced a mild winter, recent rains
and cold have kept the Grizzly
diamond team off the turf.
This week the Tips are in
Lewistown, Idaho for their annual
spring trek for exhibition games
and a chance to work out in warm,
sunny weather. The Grizzlies had
but two team practices outside be-
fore they left last Saturday and
hope to use their spring vacation
in LewistoWn to good advantage.
pitching could become a major
problem" according to Grizzly
Hal Sherlock. Although several
moundsmen have reported for pre-
season workouts some failed to
nit the text books properly and
may not be eligible this season.
Sherlock faces another problem,
about which neither he nor any
one else can do much. There isn't
a single left1handed hitter or
! thrower ON the Grizzly team.
Throw the ball and duck" says
Sherlock. ''That's about all we
will be able to do sometimes with
out any portsiders."
The Grizzly infield is expected to
improve considerably this season
both extensively and defensively
Hitting, a frequent problem with
Grizzly ball clubs, should be i'm
proved over recent seasons also
as several candidates for the team
nave power to spare.
Two losses that will be keenly
felt are John Matte and Norris
Barnhil. Matte, a two-year let
terman, has class conflicts witt
practice times and cannot report
for duty at third base this rear
Barnhil, also a letterman, is
working in Missoula to finance his

Senators Protest
 Arctic & IZembek Wildlife Ranges

The budget submitted by the administration for the Depart ment of the Interior included funds for the management of two game ranges in Alaska which were strongly protested by Sen ator Gruening and Senator Bart lett in testimony before the Ap- propriations Committee.
 Tn his statement to the com- mittee, Senator Gruening urged deletion of $181, ,000 budgeted for management of the Arctic Wild life Range and $206,000 budgeted for the Izembek Wildlife Range. The senator characterized expen- allure of funds on the 5000, ,O0O- acre withdrawal as folly" He pointed out that the establish ment of this range had been steadily and consistently opposed by the governor of Alaska, the Alaska State Legislature, the De- partment of Fish and Game of the State of Alaska, and the Alaska congressional delegation.
 Gruening further pointed out that isolation of this area should be sufficient to protect it and that it's status could not be im- proved by expending the funds requested by the federal govern ment.
