BRINGING UP FATHER OH.DEAR! IF “THAT HORRID COUNT CALLS ON US TO-DAY, Ll FAINT- o WO I.EAGUE BOWLING TEAMS .. . END PLAY INTIE Parke—Davis, Carsten Line— ups in Eik Tourney Knotted B LEAGUE (Final) Carstens Parke-Davis Libbys Schillings Sherwin-Wil. Swifts Hills Bros. Philcos Del Montes 7 K 9 10 11 13 15 16 20 The Parke-Davis team in the Elks bowling competition had an idea, last night before rolling in the final matches of the B League schedule, that it was a einch for the championship in the aforesaid B League. But that was before the bowling last night, and also before the powers-that-be gave Carstens, chief Parke-Davis rival, a “win"” for a tie game played previously. 8o now, with the B League regu- lar hedule completed, Parke- Davis and Carstens bowlers are tied for the title. The playoff, to see which team enters the inter- league championship competition, will not be held until after New Years Day, officials said today. Last night's finale for the B League found three close matches, all decided by the 2-to-1 route. In the first one, Libby's took third place by besting Fills Broth- ers. The second battle wes featured by the high 611 and 221 bowling of F.- Henning for the winning Phil- cos over Parke-Davis. The last en- gagcment gave Carstens the victory over Swifts, when Mrs. Nick Ba- vard rolled 523 and 180. The Cars- tens had high team figures of 1,- 461 and 513. Just exactly four teams are in the C League running as that loop faces its final three matches to- | night. In the first encounter, Frye's Delicious and Kaysers mix at 7:30 o'clock. At 8:30 o'clock, the | Purolas and Mojuds duel, while the last regular game of the season for all leagues is due for 9:30 o'clock, with and Spark Oil Heaters scheduled.

Last night—of all nights—they braved the arduous sea voyage ‘Totals across Gastineau Channel to bat- tle Douglas High School in the very, very cold Douglas Natator- jum In fact, the Douglas “Nat.” was so cold, the visitors warmed up with their overcoats on, and played with sweatshirts for three quarters But that didn’t stop the first half champions in the City Basketball League from defeating their young- er, less experienced rivals, 53 to 26, Aided by the play of Lawrence Hill, “borrowed” from the Juneau Firemen, the Green Shirts went to work and soon had command. The quarter scores were: 14-8, 27-11, 39-18, and 53-26. Claude Erskine, George Brother guard, was high man with 14 points. Bob Davlin aund Hill, for- wards, weren't far behind, with ten and nine points, respectively. Cash- en, losing center, claimed ten markers. Although badly beaten, Coach | Martin Pederson’s lads showed 472—1425 | plenty of potentiality for their com- ing bid for a Southeast Alaska championship.

And yet that is exactly the light in which the American pitching records for the 1934 sea- son show him. “Iron Man” Gomez topped the league by pitching to 1035 batters in 282 innings. He won 26 games with an earned run average of 2.3. And hurled 25 complete games! A grand record of skill and gura- bility—and one which was not ac- complished without cost. was a mighty tired athlete out there on the mound when the end | | of the 1934 season rolled around. A dozen pounds under his normal playing weight he certainly loaked | as though he would welcome the! | winter lay-coff above all else. \ Instead of seeking rest far away [ from baseball diamonds in W to regain the old vitality, Lefty hurriedly packed his bags and has~“_ tened to join the group of big league barn-stormers heading Ior‘ | Japan. No Rest Fer the Weary All through October vember and on up to the middle of December the party including Ruth, Gehrig, Foxx, Averill and other stars played exhibition games in the Far East, ending the tour with a series in Manila. Gomez pitched more than his share of the games, striking out an even dozen batters in the final game f the tour team. With the exhibition tour out the . way,. his vaeation ‘seally z gins, His party is to move on*™to Java and then continue around the world to New York. The old left arm will have a couple of months' | rest before the stunt begins. Nine months is quite a stretch for a pitcher to keep his arm to'| the grindstone—even for a physi- cal giant. And Lefty, with a top | weight of 173 pounds spread over his 6 ft. 1% inch frame is hardly a physical giant. spring training Look At the Record! Gomez might do well to study the cases of Lefty Grove and Carl | Hubbell, two of the game's great COAL The value of any coal to the consumer depends solely upen what results he is able to secure with it in daily operation and under exitsing conditions. . . .
