Coach H. B. Waid of the Ju- neau aggregation will take ei men with him on the trip. The; are: Livie, alternate center and forward, whose shooting has help- ed the local to cop several games this year; Fred and Jim Orme; forwards, who are counted on for many markers in the s ries, and who have been the sia- bilizing element of the Burke, guard, long shot threat and running defense; Berggren, standing guard, one of the bast School THiil- champions of “* the Hilltoppers have had for someé years.

In the outset, the locals have a much longer boat trip Lo reach Wrangell than do the south. ern men. Petersburg, Waid sai.l, undoubtedly reached the peak of its condition later than the Hiil- toppers did, and as a consequence the layup for both fives during| the last two weeks should tend| to favor the Petersburg team.

FOUR CLUBS LOOK TO 1928 FOR THE FIRST WORLD TITLE NEW YORK, March 13—Four of the 16 big league ball clubs train y|ing for the coming season never have won the World series and one of them never played in onc. The four clubs that have yet 10 gain the coveted stake are Brook lyn and Philadelphia in the Na tional Leagué and Detroit and St Louis in the American. The St Louis Browns are the only club that never won a pennant. The Phillies gained but one pennant— 11915; while Brooklyn, prospering most in presidential years, topped its league in 1916“anad*1929; and the Tigers in 1907, '08 ‘and *09. CUBS PILOT SCORES VETERANS'TREATMENT CHICAGO, March 13—If Ray Shalk, manager of the Chicago White Sox, has a pet peeve it ic the tough break he says down and out ball players get. “It's a down right shame,” said the fiery little manager, “the way many men, who have given tue best years of their life to base ball, are forced virtually to beg for a living in their old age. Thc average fan does not realize that where there is one highly pald player there are scores who re: ceive only ordinary pay.” Ray declares the present bene- fit organization is not functioninz the way it should. He says one modeled after ‘the actors’ assocl ation is needed. e e ATTENTION It you neea a good carpenter phone 498. Hardy Andy's Shop. A. P. LAGERGREN, Prop. adv.

A crowd of barely 10,000 looked on as the big rough and tumble man from Cleveland battered Sharkey out of the elimination contest with an awkward bt tireloss and frequently offective attack. The battle khad no particular thrills and onl, me £oill, that ex- perienced by Sharkey when he took the count of three in the tenth round, half from the effects of a left hook and half from slip- ping feet. It was a wrestling, mauling hit and miss battle most of the way, too drab and unexcit ing to add any luster to the al ready somewhat listless and life less heavyweight elimination tour- nament.
