SPORTS ROUNDUP By GAYLE TALBOT, NEW YORK The past tow letters have produced a rash of open days to Rogers Hornsby from his friends of tho press.

But there's one silly lie still going the rounds. and one dangerous lie now being led the sporting public, Let us straighten them both out, The first fib Is merely a myth, one of those old wives' tales that never die. That's the business of the bear's catching salmon by scooping them out with a dexterous paw, flipping his bright-hued out onto the gravel bar.

You have seen that picture on ware store calendars countless times; you've read accounts of such doings In supposedly reputable writings. Any bear, black or brown, may catch a salmon with his feet. But scoop or flip. The bear will pounce on him just as your dog will pounce on tadpoles or minnows In a pond. The bear anchors the humpy or coho against the bottom and then picks it up his teeth.

He may even grab his meal in those fangs first off. But it you think you have seen bear, elther brown or black, using lunch paws like dipnets or swiping his up onto the bank with a roundhouse right, you'd better change your brand or get those spectacles fixed. It just ain't so. The really dangerous lic, a men: ace to the preservation for the American public of the greatest American game animal, is the sidlous propaganda that brown or Kodiak bear threatens the salmon. Industry.

Sure he eats salmon. Almost every creature of the constal area save the Sitka deer, creatures furred, feathered and finned, elther directly or indirectly depends on salmon runs for a living. But the bear doesn't threaten: the salmon canning industry. The industry threatens itself. For lack of a better scape-goat it now threatens the bears.

there are ten grown bears on a salmon stream, which is posaible but too big a family. for any save the biggest creeks. Assume further that each of them cats three meals a day, three salmons at- whack, which is an extreme consensus. But granting such oxtremes during the months of July, August, September and bears' Hope Gets 2nd Win of Week Over Spa Team OLDS MA might conceivably cat sal-1 mon, Actually they wouldn't.

Mc-1 Math, who goes to Prescott night for aunther Truman-styled give 'em hell campaign speech, charged his opponent today with being "afraid to meet me in joint debate." In a letter to Chancellor Francis Cherry, who faces him in the Aug. 1 2runoff for the Demberatic gubernatorial nomination, McMath repeated his debate challenge and set Aug. 8 as the date. Cherry promptly turned down the governor, declaring: "Sid McMath knows that I am literally cutting him to and that "my talkathon schedule is set up in advance." The governor wrote Cherry, "To prove to the citizens of ansas that you arc afraid to meet me in joint debate and that the excuse you offer for not meeting me in your hometown of for a discussion of the vital issues of this campaign is just a subterfuge, I herewith challenge you to meet me in joint debate at the Robinson Auditorium, Friday ing, Aug. 8, at 8 p.m.

Royce Weisenborger; Perry Donald Purtle 13, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ted and William David Kennedy, 6, grandson of Police Chief Baker. Young Purtle definitely has polio and is still under an oxygen tent.

The Weisenberger youth is still under an oxygen tent and physicians had not completed their diagnosis Monday morning. The Kennedy youth is out of the oxygen tent and is believed to be resting better. His fever is gone. Sharon Roberts, 7, definitely does; not have polio, her mother, Mrs. H.

Many Boys Have an Ambition to Be a Fireman or a Cop Boyle's Was Some Different By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK UP) There is a period in the lives of boys when they want to be a cowboy, a fireman or a cop, When I was that age I had a different ambition. I wanted to grow up and be a "Saturday night sport." It seemed like life could hold nothing finer.

You don't see many Saturday night sports anymore. Like the village blacksmith, has passed them by. But to me they will always have a memorial glamor, because they were the heroes of my childhood. Just what was the Saturday night sport? Well, he was the forerunner of the cake-eater, the drug. store cowboy, and the modern-day corner wolf.

But he was much more than these. He had a falir, an aura of temporary splendor about him--the nonchalant air of a dead-game guy ready for any adventure. During the week the Saturday night sports of my childhood were just ordinary fellows grubbing out a living. One was an undertaker's assistant. One was a grocery clerk.

One worked in a cleaning shop. Another had a steady job with the city. But 'on Saturday night they crawled out of the cocoon of the commonplace. They met at the corner barbershop and took turns loping in the chair like millionaires while Verne, the barber, gave them the -shave, haircut. massage, and tonic.

All the time they kept up a line of rapid-tire chatter, knowing inside stuff about baseball, babes, and politics. I was selling newspapers on the corner then, and used to love to come into the barbershop and sit quietly and listen to them.

-Horace A Hope police report tells us hat A series of store burglaries vas solved when they arrested hree small Negro buys, ages 8 13. There's a question, of course. Wether this constitutes a crime! vave. Between the ages of 8 and 3 a fellow isn't entirely responible. Periodically The Star revives its uggestion that the custom of curew ought to be observed strictly.

When your writer was a boy mar-school kids had to be off the street by 9 p.m. At 6:59 we start-! ed trailing off for home and when the dolorous sound of the Orfew whistle boomed across a great city at exactly 9 there wasn't juvenile in sight. Actually, the curfew idca wouldn't have applied specifically in the police report mentioned above. Instead of staying out late to do their mischief these kids got up carly. But generally speaking the curfew whistle has a wholesome effect on growing youngsters a reminder that there is law and order in the land, and kids have 10 business roaming around in the dark hours.

Curfew is a practice brought over to America from Great Britain and Europe. On the way back in the Middle Ages a bell was rung as a signal 10r people to cover up their hearth fires and go to bed. It applied to adults as much as children because not very people owned clacks in those days, land the curfew was a community Ame signal. Furthermore, few houses had chimneys, the fireplace was in the center of the and the curfew was a ing to bank the fire so it wouldn't burn up the house during the night. When the curfew was brought from Europe into England by William the Conqueror (1066) it was applied against all people found the streets at nignt.

There was a good deal of objection, as to expected when adults. are interfer-1 ed with. It was' modifidd by King Henry And so it has continued to this day, as an. ordinance forbidding young children to be out of their homes after, a reasonable hour. The curlew is pretty generally observed in New England and the East, not so well observed in the South and West.

But It's a good idea, and its strict observance here in Hope would remind small-fry that if they're not home by 9 p.m. that's where they ought to be, Describes Bus Crash as Horrible WACO, Tex.
