In the first quarter the Demolays were consistently ahead. The play was slow with both sides missing .ree throws. Ralph Bardi sustained n injured ankle during the first few minutes of play and Howard Jackson was put in as substitute. Play in the second quarter was more spirited with Jackson taking the lead with long shots for the basket which were completed. The second half ended Ketchikan in the lead 21 to 12 In the third quarter Juneau High began' to act as a real threat for the visiling team and scored three baskets to the Demolay’s one. Jack- son was injured during the play and was taken out of the game. Play- ing a fighting game. he crashed into one of the players and suf- fered a broken ncse. The fourth quarter was outstand- ing for the baskets made on both sides. Bob Wells who was high point man for the visitors, showed excellent floor work and. the min- utes of the quarter were marked with plenty of spirited trys for goals many of which were good with SUMMARY DeMoiay (32) Wells 10 ‘W.

When the pitching staff needed bolstering Walters took up hurling again. His pitching re- | cord showed nine victories against the same number of defeats. But | the strange part of it all is that Walters finished up the season right where he started—at third base Bobby Reis of the Boston Bees is another infielder-outfielder-pitch- er. Most of his mound work was con- fined to relief pitching but he won | the two games he started for Brook- lyn last year, one an 1l-inning af- fair, Al Lopez, now of the Boston Bees, often took off his catching gear while with Brocklyn to go out on the infield and see just how much fun it was for a second baseman to |tak2 a throw from the catcher, dodge flying spikes and get a would- be base stealer. | Ralph Winegarner went to the Cleveland Indians with a reputation |as a Handy-Andy. He made a de- cided hit with Manager Steve O'Neily by the way he handled him- self in his numerous assignments. He hit 300 and did a creditable job on the mound. Ryba Plays 'Em Al Pepper Martin alternate between the outfield and infield for the Car- dinals. He had one brief whirl on the mound but did not threaten Dizzy Dean'’s regular turn.

Jimmy of the alleys. SPORT SLANTS Versatile players came into their own last season and almost every major league club boasted at least on= Handy-Andy who was capable of filling in when injuries or slumps forced regulars to the sidelines. Big- time baseball is still pretty much of a matter of specialization, but with the limited rosters’ a Jack-of-all- baseball-trades is a mighty handy fellow to have on the bench when an emergency arises. Bucky Walters certainly earned his pay-check at Baker Bowl last year. The versatile ace of the Phil- lies went to the training camp with hopes of winning a job at third April 1, 1936. | Foxx played third, first and caught | for Connie Mack while he was with | the Athletics. Mark Koenig played every infield position for the Giants within a two-weeks' period. Mark once took a fling at pitching when his eyes were troubling him but he didn’t set the leagues afire. Babe Ruth wasn't exactly an all- around ball player but the Babe did all right on the mound before his slugging prowess demanded that he be played every day. He wasn't a bad first baseman and, ‘before his legs gave out, he was a mighty fine outfielder. —l e NOTICE From on and after this date, I will not be responsible for any debts contracted by my wife, Fran-’ ces Reynolds.

Dolan started fron Stewart with a full load of hundreds { of pounds of trading goods, she said, | bui because of traveli:a_ condition: arrived at his post with only 5( ! pounds of rice and 25 pounds of tea. Miss Joyce was sick with the flu for several days at the Dolan trading post. Fourteen days were “equired for the trip from Kluane Lake to Tanana Crossing, she said Heavy Snow Enccuntered A sled was used during the earlier part of her trip, from Taku to Whitehorse, and considerable diffi- culty was encountered due to heavy snowfall. At Whitehorse the slec was exchanged for a toboggan with much bettcr resuits. Miss Joyce was hampered through- out the major part of her trip by inability to carry sufficient quan- tities of smoked fish for dog food dians in the Interior never carry food for their dogs, she said, but dépend upon shooting a moose to feed them. If no moose is to be had the dogs go hungry, she said. Miss Joyce answered questions bgcause of the deep snow. The In-| WHO ? HIDE THE CHAMPION WRESTLER ? YOU WORT PAY ?
