The rival circuits, convinced the major league map is due for an extensive revision in the near .future, are casting covetous eyes at the two mainstays of the Pacific Coast league with their combined population of 6,000,000. The American League, through. Del Webb, co-owner of New York Yankees, already has sent out feelers to the coast with a suggestion that St. Louis Browns and Philadelphia Athletics be i moved to Los Angeles and San Francisco. The National League has bean - discussing the possibility of moving Philadelphia Phillies and Cincinnati Reds to those California cities. . DETERMINED BID The American League already knows of the National's intentions and is going to make a determined try to get there first. A committee made up of Webb, Tom Yawkey of Boston, Spike Briggs of Detroit and Chuck Comlskey of Chicago already has been appointed to explore the Pacific Coast situation.

These, however, were not considered sufficient assurance for future years. Application by the club for a rinsed season on deer in the district was considered undesirable by the provincial Game Department. Close to 300 ring-necked pheasants will be at large in the Smithers district between Evelyn to the west and Telkwa to the east by fall, it was announced. This figure will possibly be exceeded as there is no record of natural hatches by birds already at large. Forty-eight adult birds were received through the Game Department and released by the club this spring. The club purchased 85 day-old chicks and four adult hens and a cock- Lheasant. From the latter a large number of eggs were received and hatched.
