CHANNELTEAMS ARE ANNOUNCED Selection Committee Names Members of First and Second Outfits Framed from the figures, and not embodying the judgment or dis- crimination of any individual—once again The Empire’s All-Gastineau | Channel League baseball team| makes its appearance. ! The selection committee of one has his own opinions as to the| most valuable men for the posi- tions on the 1936 stellar group, but though they differ from the play- ers named in some few instances, | he has faithfully followed the pre- cept proclaimed in the old adage, “Figures don't lie,” and all selec- tions have been made by the play- ers themselves throughout the sea- son’s play as noted in the scoring| records.

Aldare was knocked down in the first round for the count of nine and was counted out in the next round. Steele weighed 160 pounds, and Aldare tipped the scales at 162 pounds. — .- PRISON TERMS FOR MEMBERS, BLAGK LEGION National Head Also Indict- those who have regularly perform- ed in that position, with the next highest in ‘each position being placed upon the second team, (after the two infields were chosen, utility infieldere for each were selected from those who have demonstrated ability in all infield berths); the two pitchers with the lowest earned runs averages per game and the catcher with the highest score.

In all but perhaps three positions, the fi- gures gave a definite ‘edge to the players named.

It is a lean, lank figure with a beard, and* the name is Father Time. There are no rules that can keep him out, and he will be there at the final reckoning as two Italo~ Americans battle for the lightweight championship of the world in a re- turn match. In 1925, when Tony knocked out Jack Gardner in the first round, Lou Ambers was 12 years old. By the time Canzoneri had be- come featherweight champion of the world, he had a worshiper in his present opponent.
