The three players who go to the White Sox are Jimmy Dykes (left), Mule Haas (top rizht) and Al Simmons (lower right). For years Simmons has been considered the best outfielder in the majors and in 1930 and 1931 he was batting champion of the American Leagus. His acquisition by the Chicago team is considered the most important con- structive move made by the Wh}te l‘S«'n( since 1915 when it acquired Joe ackson |the 1932 production of the Fair- ‘g‘round during the spring and no 0 TP T IN ] 93 work was done on that creek. | Expected Good Season | On the basis of results obtained |last fall officials of the Beaver | Dredging Company, operators of It.he gold boat, had looked forward —_— lw the best season since operations P > began.

There was considerably more ac- tivity in the (Circle Country than heretofore. Production from exist- ing plans was good and several new projects were launched. It is expected they will more than offset the decreased output caused by the working out of the Berry ground on Eagle Creek, for many years a cohsistent and rich pro- ducer. Bad Luck at Livengood Livengood had bad luck. All other disticts had abundant watet but Livengood was short of it all season and accordingly the oupu! will probably be less than in 1931. Gold mined in the Kustkokwom and the Iditarod is not handled through Fairbanks, so mno close check is obtainable on the output in those regions. However, xg- ports say the year was an auspie- ious one. Especially in the negh- @ busy one. Much new machinery including two drag-lines, was in- stalled last spring. 5 Same at Hot Springs - The Hot Springs output wil probably be about the same as for several years past. Liittle change one way or the oth- er is expected in the Rampart area. No reports have come from Ea- gle and the surrounding country. Production from the Koyokuk this year was nearly negligible, Ruby gad a good season. It is said between $120,000 and $130,000 will be mined there, which repre- sents a good increase.
