The former, a rookie who looks something like old Tony Freitas, ex- Sacramento ace, took his second straight since coming up from Ta- coma. Hector Brown and Jim Davis were Seattle’s winners against Portland, 6-4, and 9-0. Davis posted a five- hit whitewash over the short route. The Beavers’ Luiz Marquez got orders to report to his draft board in Puerto Rico. The 24-year-old ace of the Portland outfield will leave today and may be lost to the club for a week or more.

The defending champions eked out a 2-1 victory in 10 ipnings over the Chicago White Sox to cut Detroit’s first place margin to one game. Cleveland trails by two.

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUN INAMES DRAWN T0 HUNT AFOGNAK ELK, BIG DELTA BISON Only one Southeast Alaska hunt- | er applied for a special permit to hunt elk on Afognak Island under the limited provisions of the Al- aska game laws, and he will not be able to do so unless ten men from minds. Lou A. Hudson of Juneau is that one hunter—the only one from these parts of the 79 applicants to the Alaska Game Commission. As the 1950 game laws specify that only 50 hunters will be licensed for the Afognak season, applicants’ names were drawn from a hat this morn- ing, to determine impartially which licenses would be issued. Hudson is the tenth alternate. All other ap- plicants are residents to the west- ward. Names of 20 alternates were drawn. The name of A. J. Cichoskl was the first drawn. ‘Tiny,” who is a 1good 6 foot 5 tall, is a well-known Kodiak hunter. Object of the special hunt is to remove 50 useless bulls from the herd which was estimated at 212 animals in the 1948 count. Afognak was stocked with eight elk in 1929 The drawing to decide which 25 hunters will be licensed to shoot bison in the Big Delta area left the season strictly in ,spormmen from Kodiak, Anchorage and other places to the westward. l!{unk and Anchorage change their \ Even the seven Cordova applicants | and one Valdez hunter were -left | out. No Southeast Alaska hunters | were among the 295 men and women who applied. The nameé of Constant H. Morse, Fairbanks, was the first drawn. Between October 1 and 15—the same season as that for elk on Af- i ognak—limited hunting of bison will be permitted in the Big Delta buffalo refuge, as provided in Sec- tion 1652 of the game laws. This hunt will be to remove 25| surplus, old, non-breeding bulls. | Hunters will be acompancied by Game Commission agents, who will | designate the animals. The special hunt is one of two measures to reduce the herd at Big Delta, where the winter range has been seriously overgrazed and bison are interfering with Army opera- tions. The other program is to trans- plant some young stock to the Up- per Copper River as nucleus of a new herd. In 1928, the district was stocked with 23 bison. The 1948 count showed 325 animals. The drawing was yesterday morn- ing in the U. S. Fish and Wildlifé Service office, Federal Building. \ gional Forester B. Frank Heintzle- man drew numbers corresponding | to those which identified the appli- cations. The numbers were in a big Thlingit hat made of spruce root, the hat brought from the Territor- ‘ial Museum by Curator Edward L. Keithahn. W. A. (Bud) Elkins, FWS Wild- life Management suervisor, was in charge of the little ceremony, and Miss June Eliason assisted. With the Governor they were photographed at their work by J. Malcolm Greany.
