Loop Plan Bolster- ing Additions There will be many a new Iace among players in the second half ! of the Juneau City Basketball| League, scheduled to start play | Friday night on the High School | That is, the faces—most of them —won't be exactly new to Ju- neau fans; but they will be “new” in the sense that the added play- ers did not play during the first h And the cause of all this? Sim- ple: to strengthen teams. No less than five of the seven clubs have added new players, a | survey showed today. Only the| George Brothers line-up, which won the first half championship, and the High School quintet, which well step out and add 1l remain pat with first| half rosters. The other five are out to win| second half title. And that de- sire, of course, can have but one t: a much more evenly cnn< tested race. BEriefly, some of the reported and | rumored additions follow: | DcMelay—Addition of Harry Brandt, former star with the Al- aska College and School of Mines team. The leading scorer for that team, which showed its prowess to Juneau fans a year ago in several exhibitions here, Brandt strength- ens the DeMolays who are already | a title threat. Krause Concreters— Signing of Dave Turner. Turner, who ranges around six feet in height, is a suit- able replacement for Bill Culver. Paul Brown, stellar forward, wil move over to Culver’s center slot, and it is expected that Turner will fill in at forward. Bill Nikish, Ju- neau High graduate and frosh numeral winner at Stanford Univer- sity, also will play for Krause. | Moose—A weak team in the first half, the Moose may be dan- gerous in the following play with the addition of Wayne Yarrow, Haines boy. Douglas Firemen—Angus Guerin, once a hoop favorite on the Chan- nel, is slated to try a comeback at center for the Douglas club this half. Guerin worked a little on one of the last games played in the first half, and, although short on condition, may be a boost to the Islanders. Juneau Firemen—Noted as the only team to beat the title-winning | George Brothers outfit, the Ju-| neau Firemen will be all the more feared with the addition of Ab- bie Garn, who starred for them last year. Second half play starts Friday night when the DeMolays face the Krause Concreters in the second game of a doubleheader. The first game will find Juneau and Doug- | las High School quintets renew- ing their Gastineau Channel cham- pionship series at 8 o'clock. ————.—— ANNUAL PARISH DINNER Make your reservations for the Annual Parish Dinner at Holy Trinity Cathedral Thursday, Jan- uary 10, 6:20 p.m. 50 cents.

By FOSTER HAILEY (Ascociated Press Sports Writor) NEW YORK, Jan. 9.— United States track and field athletics in 1934 had one of the greatest years in the history of sport, setting 15 world records, twice as many na- tional marks and breaking meet records nearly every time they donned spiked shoes, Starting with the big indoor fix- tures in New York in February, Glenn Cunningham, Bill Bon- thron, Jack Torrance, Ben East- man and the rest fought it out among themselves for ceveral months, and then ganged on Eu- |rope, Asia and the Scandinavian countries for foreign laurels. The fifteen world records fell to Torrance in the “shot put, one hand and both hands, Cunning- ham in the mile, Bonthron in the 1500 meters, Eastman in the 500 and 800 meters and 44, 600 and 880 yard distances, Ralph. Metcalfe in the 100 and 200 meters. Norman His chief competitors, all of whom added their names to the world record roll, were Bill Cunningham (top), (center) and Bill Bronthron (lower). “year. | rack during 1934, Ben (in action) had to set five marks which were recognized as world Jack Torrance Paul in the 220 yard low hurdles, Glen Hardin in the 400 meter hur- dles, Percy Beard in the 110 me- ter high hurdles and Walter Mar- ty in the high jump. Bill Graber's margglous vault of 14 feet 4% inches, made in the 1932 Olympic tryouts but not presented then, also was accepted by the interna- tional body this year as the world mark. Indoors, Too! In addition to tnese records sev- eral indoor world marks, a cate- gory not recognized international- ly as indoor meets are held only in America, were set during the Notable among these was Cunningham’s 4:08.4 for the indoor mile, only 1.7 seconds behind hisl outdoor record; Keith Brown’s pole vault of 14 feet 4 inches, and Walter Marty’s high jump of | feet 8% inches. A thrilling rivalry between Cun- ningham and Bonthron was a fea- | ture of the year. The two greatl middle distance runners — on the fecord the two best of all .time— met twice indoors and three times out with Cunningham the victor in two races and Bomthron in three. The series started in the N. Y. A. C. indoor games where Bonthron won the mile by a stride. Cunning- ham came back a few days later to nip the Princetonian in the National championship 1500 meter | run, the finish being so close both were caught in of 3:52.3. They next met in the invitation games at Princeton in June and here Cunningham won decisively in the world record time of 4:06.7, the mark which was accepted by the International Federatjon. With the latter defeat as a spur, Bonthron flew west to whip Sunningham. by six yards in the National Collegiate mile in time of 4:089 and a week later at Milwaukee in the National A. A, U. Champignships made one of he most thrilling stretch sprints ‘n athletic history to beat Cun- ningham at the tape and drive the universal 1500 meter mark down to 3:488. the record time Great Battles Bonthron also had action during the year of finally lefeating Jack Lovelock, whom he chased to a then world mark for he mile of 4:07.8 in their first meeting at Princeton in 1933. Love- lock again defeated him in the rinceton-Cornell — Oxford-Cam- ridge dual \gain at Amsterdam shortly there- after, but Bonthron finally caught “im at Paris in a 1500 meter run and beat him decisively. Three groups selected from the vinners and runners-up at Mil- waukee ' toured ‘ foreign countries “Zunningham and Metcalfe headed me broup that went to Hawaii, ‘apan and the Philippines, Ivan 1qua. and Gene Venzke another 1at toured Germany, and Hardin, ‘astman, Bonthron, 3eard the third that toured Swed= n and Norway and then swung sack through Belgium and France. Many younger stars also came to the fore during the year. them is Jesse Owens, the fine negro sprinter and broad jumper from Cleveland; Ray Sears of But- ler, who ran two miles faster than any American ever had before — 1:07.4—George Anderson, of Cali- ‘ornia, a sprinter; Paul, the low "urdler—Bob Clark, all-round star ‘rom California; Eulace Peacock, Temple's ebony . flash, and others who probably will be heard from in 1935 and the year after in the Olympics. the satis- e - ANNUAL PARISH DINNER Make your reservations for the Annual Parish Dinner at Holy 6 | Trinity Cathedral Thursday, Jan- uary 10, 6:20 p.m. 50 cents.

Money matters have com- manded almost as much space in the news as the actual golf com- petition. ORGE McMANUS PARDON:- SIR - BUT THE DRESSER 1S GONE.! enterprising writer, The.results of the meeting were published along with all that took place and the reaction was hardly favorable to he pro cause. Just A Show! If the boys are smart enough to look ahead a bit they cannot help but see what this is going to do to their very pleasant source of income. Golf tournaments are cer- tain to become nothing more than exhibitions and as much as the paying public wants to see highly advertised stars in action, the; The the pros have been juggling the matter of prize money and its distribution is in no way going to help to build up or make rich golf tournaments more popu- lar. On the contrary, instead of promising real competition among the best pro golfers there is a tendency to make these meeting mere exhibitions, Witness the way the pros have gotablished their monetary policy. A few years ago Gene Sarazen and Johnny Farrell eed to poo their winnings for a certain period, dividing the profits. That was the beginning. The little band of American pro stars who invaded Australia last fall decided to share the winnings {The result was that when Leo } Diezel won the rich Melbourne Sentenary pro-championship he pocketed only the same share he would have had he finished well down the list, provided, of course, one of his group won the event. It may among pro golfers but it seems hardly the proper basis for com- | 2etitive sports. To the victor . be- longs the spoils and any arrange- ment that might cast even the slightest doubt on hte possibility of any entrant not trying his utmost to win is not a healthy one. Each and every man should be in there doing his best without the slightest hint of agreements. Gentleman's Game? To go on to the recently con- \tested Miami Biltmore Open. The donor of the rich prize chose to add an extra $2,500 to the original 1$10,000 offered in the past and » io1 prised of those big names in the to be made up of golfers who de- voted most of their time to in- structing and paid little attention to tournament prize play. { It seemed like a good enough plan and promised double interest in the tournament. The Bombers, as the first division was named, did not take kindly to this ar- rangement. And particularly did they question the way the prizes divided. It was one thing for some- one to put up the money—that was @ grand idea, but when that party took the liberty of trying to say how the mcney was to be hand- ed out—that was something else ‘|again. It was a bit more than the club swingers could countenance. So they called a meeting and staled the prizes to their own lik- ing. Everything might have gone along smoothly had not one enter- prising sports writer voiced the sire to publish the decision of the meeting. That brought forth a storm of protest. It was no one's business how they decided to split, some argued. The argument be- came so heated that “Wild Bill” Melhorn became wilder than ever and took a few swings at the be the accepted practice ! to split the field into two divis-| the first section to be com-| pro ranks while the second group | in their own group were to be| do not care for the very sound of the word exhibition.

YANKEES DETROIT, Jan. 9.— Predicting another pennant for his Tigers thi: year—"“if our luck holds out"— Frank J. Navin, owner of the De- troit American League flag win- ners said that the New York Yan- kees are the team the Tigers must | | beat. “They have the power and the | pitching,” Navin said of the team that gave his club a merry battle in the 193¢ campaign. “I them pretty well, |going to be a six-club race, it is going to be difficult for any team to win.” | Cleveland, | Detroit, New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Wash- ington, Navin pointed out, have bright chances to cop the pennant in 1935. “Of course, well have to ibe lucky,” he said of Detroit pros- (pects.
