Substi- tute for this a bargain-day attrac- tion each day, a double-header every day of the playing season. Do not increase the present price of admission. Let them remain as they are. “Instead of the regular nine- inning game, two six-inning games could be played each afternoon. Instead of the championship season schedule calling for 154 games this could be increased to 308 games. “This plan holds forth many fine features. TFirst of all there would be far keener interest in a schedule of 308 games on the part of the public and players. The season would scarcely be consid- ered over and done with and the championship decided by May 15 or June 1, as has been the case on occasions in the past. “Times without number ball games are decided in the first or another, but came back with 10 in one frame themselves and won the battle 17 to 11. The. Pirates beat the Cardinals recently by talling 10 markers in the ninth. But, on- the average, two ab- breviated or six-inning games cer- tainly would furnish more excite- ment and add more life to the sport than the ordinary nine-in- ning affair. THURSDAY’S GAME Rain last night. drowned out the Legion-Moose game on the City League schedule and tonight's tilt between the. Elks . and Veterans was apparently due to suffer the tion of any immediate break in the weather, and Weather Man Mize, while holding out hope for clear- ing tomorrow, saw nothing on the charts pointing to a cessation of rain by game time this evening. If tonight’s game cannot be played, it and last night's will have to be carried over the Fourth of July due to the two-game series for Monday and Tuesday. This leaves no time for playing post- poned games. PET CANARIES LOSE LIVES IN FIRE AT KOBAK HOME TODAY Defective wiring is thought to have been the cause of a fire which broke out at 10 o'clock this morning in the kitchen of Mr. and Mrs. Nick Kobak’s residence on | Third and Harris Streets, accord- | ing to V. 'W. Mulvihill, of the Juneau Fire Department. Consid- erable damage was wrought in the kitchen before the blaze was ex- tinquished by the Department. When the firemen arrived on the scene, Mrs. Kobak was vallantly fighting the, flames with the aid of a garden hose. In addition to the damage to the house, two pet canaries lost their ‘lives in the blaze. — BESOLOFF FUNERAL The funeral services for Ivan Besoloff, who died at St. Ann's Hospital last Sunday morning, will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 oclock in the Chapel of the Charles W.

When the Yankees or some other team scores five or six runs in the early innings of the game the fans lose interest in the proceedings. “It, would not be working a hard- ship on the players to ask them to participate in 12 innings each day. They are not overtaxed physically and a half hour to 45 minutes extra work should not .result in any falling off in their -general play.” . Nothing New to Cards It sounds like a radical proposal and no doubt most major league club owners would shrink away from it at first thought. Yet the idea already has been developed to some extent, by the steps taken to increase the number of “bargain” double-headers. 8t. Louis clubs have been permitted to combine regularly scheduled Mon- day games in Sunday double bills, as an added attraction, as well as an acknowledgement of the fact that fans want all they can get for their money nowadays. It would take considerable argu- ment to convince the old-timers, especially, that six innings consti- tute a real ball game. They could point out that most of the crises are reached in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings and the records probably would bear them out. Those are the innings wher a pitch- er is most likely to crack. Would Pep Up Game : This season has produced many examples of extraordinary come- backs in games apparently lost be- yond control. The Yankees pulled out one game, with a 12-run rally, while trailing the White Sox 11 to 3, in the eighth.
