COME BACK WITH THEM BOXE D" 7 i SPORTS BRIAN BELL (As;‘gcu'rw PRESS SPORTS wnn-ti NOT SO GOOD AS HE LOOKED A big man in a big overcoat stood against a post in the lobby of the ‘Waldorf-Astoria hotel as the National league magnates met in their annual scheduled assembly. Every baseball man spoke to him and most of them stopped for a chat with Arthur Devlin, one of the great third basemen of all time. Art left active baseball behind him in 1912 and has since devoted most of his time to coaching scouting. He is now with the New York Giants and soon will be watching the college boys perform. The matter of shortstops moving over to play base and third sack- ers converting themselves into shortstops came up for discussion. Art gave some testimony. “When I was in college and just breaking in,” he said, “I played almost anywhere. If there was a vacant spot I dropped in on it, but after I began to play in a serious way and became a professional ball | player I decided I was a third baseman, “I was getting along pretty well, I thought, at third for the Giants when an emergency arose at short and they told me to go over and play there “I thought I was terrible and felt worse and worse as I went along. After a few games they sald to me, ‘You look pretty good out therz, We'll leave you at short’ I came right back at them: ‘I may look pretty good, but I don't feel good,’ I said; ‘I'm a third baseman.’ They took my word for it and got Art Bridwell to play short and I was glad | of it. I still think I was a third baseman trying to play short.” NO SCRAPS OF PAPER FOR BOB QUINN J. A. Robert Quinn, president of the Boston Red Sox, has no con- lract with his able manager, Bill Carrigan. Neither are his scouts or Logches under contract. Bob, as he is called by almost everyone in baseball, never had a contract when he was a minor league executive ind when he became a major league president he decided such docu- nents unnecessary. “I told Bill (Carrigan) last year,” said Quinn, “that he eould stay two years, five years or ten and that was all there was to our agree- Inent. “I don’t see what good a contract would do, for if Manager Carri- ran did not want to stay with me I would not want to force him rgainst his will.” President Quinn has spent some 30 years in baseball without a con- tract and perhaps he figures he is too old in the game to change now. ! DARING BASE RUNNERS PASSING Paul Krichell, Yankee scout and minor league vice president, was a yuick throwing catcher when he was active at the playing end of the ' yame, so he qualifies for a query as to base running. “What player took the longest lead off first base?” he was asked. The former catcher was quick with an answer; in fact he had two teady. “Fritz Maisel in the modern school and Bill Dahlen among the vder fellows,” he said. “Of course,” he added, “just getting a big lead is not enough to make 2 good base runner for the big lead is no good if you have to keep watching yourself and starting back to the base all the time to keep from being caught. “But these two boys could get that big lead and hold it. It was no use to throw, for they would get back. They were good base runners,” “TOM HEENEY IS DEFEATED BY MALONEY Heeney Tal(;—Bad Beating NOTICE!

Glick was down twice for the count of nine and was covered with blood. Glick tried to rise the third time while being counted out, but fell flat on !the mat. — e ‘GUN CLUB SHOOT AS USUAL SUNDAY Rain or shine, tomorrow the | members of the Juneau Gun Club will shoot. Secretary Morris and President Carter both said: “There were too many new fans getting the bug to lay oif for a mere rain shower. The new fans must be giv- en the weekly chance at the clay | birds or they might lose interest.” The Secretary will start._tomor- row keeping the scores made in a | permanent book form and the end of each month will make the aver- ages and single scores public. This has not been convenient hereto- fore. No record books that are regulation with the National Clubs, were available here. ~Morris re- ceived one yesterday and in the future “the whole wide world” will know how poor or how expert each shooter is. With the real season not far dis- ,tant more interest is being shown iby the fans. Several trophies are promised and will be shot for dur- I1ng early spring. — P SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES b mours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not iyet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against king- dom; and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the be- ,ginning of sorrows.” Matthew 24: 6-8. { How many of these signs have we seen in the world during recent years, even down to the presenf moment? All we need to do is to read the daily newspapers and we shall read of “wars and rumors of wars, famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in divers places.” China was recently torn by civil war fol- lowed by disease, pestilence, crop failures, and famine. Only a few 1weeks ago there was rumor of war between Bolivia and Paraguay in South America. Continual rumors of wars come from Europe and particularly from the Balkan coun- tries. Pestilence stalks even thru the United States of America. The, * Government reporu that thousands HF GOES 00T “Ye shall hear of wars and ru-|. died of influenza during the last fow weeks. Several weeks ago there was a terrible earthquake in Vene- {zucla. A few days before that there was an earth-shock in Turkey. Scarcely a week passes without the | report of an earthquake in some} |part of the earth. And these earth | disturbances are not confined to the | far corners of the earth. Thex-p[ have been frequent and recent re- | minders of God’s prophecy rigm‘ here in Alaska. Less than 11 years ago the world vas engaged in a terrible war imong supposedly civilized and Christian nations. But God's Word says, “nation shall rise against na- | tion, and kingdom against king- dom.” The war was followed by a world-wide epidemic known as Spanish influenza which took lit- erally thousands of people. In view | of these facts the question arises: When during history have so many | of these calamities occurred in so many different places and relative- ly at’the same time? God's Word says, “all these things must come to pass” which things are “the be-! ginning of sorrows.” Only read the | (daily paper in the light of Bible prophecy and you shall see many signs of the latter times, which by‘ the way is another reason for be- | lieving that Cod's Word is true.

LOSES T0 CAL First Gacoe - of Champion- ship Series Taken By Bears SEATTLE, March 2.— Smarting under a crushing defeat by the) basketball five of the University of | 'Californlfl. the University of Wash- | ington team is hopeful tonight of turning the tables and evening up the championship series. Last night the Bears won the game, before 8,000 fans, by a score of 43 to 31. The Huskies suffered from “stage fright.” ANGUS MACKAY ' FORMER ALASKAN DIES IN SOUTH Angus Mackay, who was a prom- inent resident on Gastineau Chan- nel for about a dozen years before his departure for the States over a detade ago, died in Berkeley, Cal, on January 5, according to word received by Charles Naghel ifrom B. M. Behrends, who is in California now. Hardening of the arteries was the cause of the death, the letter said Mr. Mackay was first taken to the hospital when a blood vessel burst in an eye, and it was though that he would be out of the hospital again in a short time. Before he {was well, a blood vessel burst in| the brain and he never recovered from the stroke. He is survived by COOKS WILL DEFEND A. A. U. COURT TITLE KANSAS CITY, March 2—Col- lege and independent basketeers will struggle for supremacy March 11-16 when more than 50 quintets meet in the national A. A. U. tour- nament. National honors nwn.!t the team winning the week’s competition. The Cooks of Kansas City, last yenr'sl winners, will defend their title after a strenuous season on the road. Fifty-three teams entered last, year's tourney, which eclipsed pre- | vious records for attendance and re- ceipts. More than 30,000 saw the 1928 contests. A Big Six ruling prevents con- ference teams from entering the tournament, but senior athletics generally are signed by independent teams at the close of the collegiate season. . College teams, however, have won the title twice in the past eight years—Butler in 1924 and ‘Washburn in 1925. - e — Old papers at the Empire. i The TAVERN OPEN FROM 7 A. M. UNTIL 2 A. M.
