a i ~gthwe>) 4 em ~ wr; bo ys & rr~ PERRY'S BRILLIANT FIVE-HIT ~ PITCHING BEWILDERS LEAGUE CHAMPIONS IN SEASON OPENER Nevada City’s nameless up to its promise it would baseball team Sunday lived not be the doormat of the Placer-Nevada league this year by decisively dumping the 1948 champions 3-2 in 10 innings Sunday afternoon at Placerville. Floyd “Babe’’ Perry set Bartletts down with five hits and was only in trouble once. And he got himself out of that hole by picking two successive runners off first. Perry struck out 8 and walked 2. Two of the five hits were long ones, going for a triple and a homerun and accounting for both Placerville runs. Perry gave but one hit the fina] six innings of the game. Tony. Kozinski’s long triple to start the tenth inning was the pay-off blow. With the power side of the Nevada City lineup coming to bat it was almost certain he would be scored to wn the game and sure enough Cameron placed a long fly to Pelligrini to win the game. The Bartletts drew first blood in the third inning. Whitmyre, shortstop, dragged an infield hit and Babbit, right fielder, smashed & mighty triple to, deep center. With. none out: Perry -rese to. the }. task and Carpender and Johnson grounded to Goldsberry at short and Nonpariel Pelligrini struck out. The Nevada City comeback was fast and in the fourth inning. With one out Schroeder doubled to left and rolled home ahead of Babe Childer’s left field single. Williams walked to start the Bartlett fourth but Babe Perry picked him off first. It turned out to be the game-saving throw as the next batter Duncan slammed the longest hit ofy the day for a circuit run and a Placerville lead of, 2-1. Until the eighth both pitchers had control of the game. Kozinski opened with a single. Goldsberry singled to center and Pelligrini picked Kozinski off third on the throw-in. Cameron: singled to left field and the runners added a base when Carsten was slow in relaying the ball in. Schroeder flied to Carsten and Goldsberry scored. Perry drove a long fly into center to give Pelligrini the star catch of the day. The fleet Bartlett centerfielder ran around a jumping pit, leaped over a log and ran up a 1&-foot embankment to make a_backhanded catch of the drive. With a tie score, Perry struck out Babbit and Carpender and Johnson lined to Kozinski to retire the Bartletts in their half of the eighth. Jones picked up a single for Nevada City in the. ninth but died on stolen second base. Kozinski’s triple and Cameron's fly broke the deadlock. In the last half of the tenth Whitmyre and Babbit lined out to Kozinski and Clark grounded out to Goldsberry to end the game. Box score: Nevada City ab r h po a e JOREs, Cf 32.5.

CROW SHOOT IS CANCELLED AS BIRDS SCATTER The proposed crow shoot, tentatively .scheduled .for Sunday, May 8, in the Meridian area,) has been cancelled, according to word received Tuesday by H. F. “Si” Sofge, secretary of the Nevada County Sportsmen’s association, which held its regular meeting the previous evening in city hall. J. C. Fraser, Allen Pollett and Bruce Kinsey of the Bear river base of the California division of fish and game were present at the meeting Fraser told the club poisoning of lakes in Nevada county would be slackened. Four lakes in the county were poisoned in 1948, while none were poisoned in the other seven counties of the district. Fraser said Kinsey would be in this area this season surveying lakes for possible poisoning in 1950. Cautioning the club about the pitfalls of attempting to predict, Fraser believed the salmon trout fishing in Donner lake ought to be good The Kokanee_ species first planted there in 1944 have spawned and salmon trout were taken in the lake in 1947 and 1948. Cc. P. Dancer, Grass Valley, interjected and said although he wouldn’t say a word about the fishing in Donner lake, he would be there. Asked the reason for good fishing in newly formed reservoirs Fraser said the division was not certain of the reason. A theory advanced by Fraser. indicated shore soil newly submerged was highly productive of the organisms and minerals of -fish food. Fluctuation of water level also affected fishing conditions, with a steady water level being conducive to better fishing. By all indications, Fraser said, Scotts Flat reservoir should be good fishing the next few seasons. Following the success of Kokanee salmon trout plantings in Donner lake, Fraser said the division is planning to study the possibilities of planting Kokanee in Lake Tahoe. There are some already in the lake that escaped from Tahoe hatchery and it is believed. the salmon trout. will not harm fishing or fish. Pollett declared the hatcheries suffereq large losses during the severe winter, with Tahoe losing 0 per cent and Yuba river hatchery suffering a 50 per cent loss. The club reiterated its opposition to a 40-day pheasant season. Gene Johnson and Lou Brown 250 Sacramento HAVE YOU MET

Folks working in town—including some of the store owners—were taking up all of the space along Main Street. Farmers coming in to shop never found a place to park, and sometimes had to lug stuff a half mile or so. Some started to do their buying in other towns. Finally, store . owners and farmers had a gettogether—with the result that the empty field near the depot was fixed up for. all-day parkers. Now farmers get their shopping How We Licked The Parking Problem done comfortably, and the merchants have a better place to park than they had before. Just took a little friendly co-operation to make everybody happy. From where I sit, most differences can be ironed out by just talking things over—maybe with a cup of coffee or glass of beer—and seeing the other person’s side of it. Next time you have a problem or a little difference to settle, why not try just that? Poe Maran, Copyright, 1949, United States Brewers Foundation’ e one of them.
