One of Lucas' biggest assets is his ability to control the ball. Like Alexander and Jack Quinn, “Red” can put the sphere just where he wants it. In his four complete | seasons in the majors, Lucas has been in 130 games and has walked but 129 men.

PROPOSED FOR CITY/| | . | A new traffic code for Juneau is | proposed by the City Council which discussed the matter at some length | last night. A special committee composed of Councilmen Messer- ‘schmidt, Scott, Bothwell and 1George was appointed by Mayor T. B. Judson to study the matter and ’drart a neyw code which it hoped to put into effect without delay. | This Committee will hold a spe- |clal meeting Monday evening and jread several municipal traffic ordi- nances procured by various mem- bers from Pacific Coast cities. A model law, drafted at the instance uscd in preparing the local | ordi- nance. i The present City code is said to be obsolete and inadequate to meet local conditions. It is planned to dreft a new one and introduce it at the next meeting of the Council. Only routine matters were brought before the Council last night. The regular monthly bills were audited and ordered paid. O’MALLEY PRAISES CABLE EFFICIENCY The local cable force and the service of the Army cable system is one of the most eficient any- where in the country, declared Henry O'Malley, U. S. Commis- sioner of Fisheries, today. The manner in which it expedites busi- ness is truly remarkable, he added. As an instance of rapid com- munication service, he cited an in- cident that happened Friday. At today. At 9 p. m. yesterday he had the order in his hands. “When one considers that the tle, forwarded from there to Wash- route, and required action by de- partment officers, the time elapsed {from filing of the original message juntil the receipt of the reply was Inothing short of remarkable,” the ICcimmmhmer said.

It will return to the coast over Richardson Highway to Chit-| ina and the Copper River & North- western to Cordova, visiting the Kennecott copper mines. From Cordova it will proceed south on the Tahoe. Aids In Mission The assignment of the Tahoe by | the Coast Guard has aided the Subcommittee materially in its mis- | sion, said Chairman Dickinson. It ers only to reach the heights in other positions because of their hit- ting ability. But Mr. Red Lucas of ‘the Cin- cinnati Reds has developed into a capable hurler after having made his major league but as an in- fielder—a second baseman. It was back in 1924 that Lucas Jjoined the Boston Braves. He was assigned to the keystone sack. Came a day when the Braves were short on pitchers but long on infielders. So young Mr. Lucas was sent to the hilltop. The red-head did such a good job, he never returned to second base. Lucas, of course had done some pitching before but he still was a bit unfamiliar with the fine points of hurling, so he was shunted to Seattle of the Pacific Coast circuit in 1925, Lucas won nine games and lost five for Seattle. The fol- lowing season he was back in big time again. This time with Cincin- nati. Red worked in 39 games in 1926, V. Hampton, Seattle; Miss F.
