The San Francisco Seals and Sac- ramento today open a series to set- tle their second-place dispute and possibly land one of them in the driver’s seat. Two games separate the Seals and the Senators, while ‘hie latter are only two and one- alf games behind the Padres. f Portland trims San Diego, a otably poor road team, and the Sclens lace the Seals the standings may be considerably juggled.

G. Linscott, mining engineer rnd Past Exalted Ruler of the Lodge of Elks in his home city in| California, was suddenly stricken with a heart attack at a birthday party at the Columbia Development Mine near Atlin, B. C, last week. Death resulted. Mr. Linscott was apparently m‘ good health at the time, but it was later learned that he had been subject to similar attacks. No reason could be determined for his being stricken at the time. As mining engineer for the com- pany backing the Tom Mitchell operations on Frances Lake, Y. T., Mr. Linscott passed through Atlin several times last summer, and himself became interested in cer- tain Blue Canyon properties. Following the failurc of the Frances Lake development and the | cessation of operations there this year, Mr. Linscott had interested some capital in the 'Blue Canyon claims near Atlin, and was in charge of drilling operations there | this summer. | According to reports, the Blue Canyon ground was proving up well | when Mr. Linscott was stricken, but it is not known whether the development there will be con- tinued.

The commission for the same period realized a re- turn of $28,000 from the various licenses issued pursuant to the Al- aska Game Law and from fines and forfeitures.

His every stride bespeaks power imofe than a world record. It means Ithat his comeback is complete. He |was rated the top half-miler of the ,world in 1935, when he toured Eu- !rope without suffering a defeat iafter winning National AAU and |National collegiate titles. He created |a new mark for the 1,000 meter run on the tour. | 1In the spring of 1936, in a race egainst Cunningham at the Drake relays, he broke an ankle, With .that fall went his hopes of winning la place on the Olympic team. He came back to the races last winter He won the National AAU 11,000 meter indoor title on the Mad- |ison Square Garden track. In May 'of this year he lowered the world mark for the 1000-yard run to 2:09.7, three tenths of a second be- low the figure held by Luigi Bec- cali of Italy. Robinson’s new. half-mile mark |appears safe only so long as no one presses John Woodruff to thé point that a better figure will be nec- essary. Long John merely runs fast enough to win. And it is pretty well established that he is capable of beating any of the current crop of half-miler aces—including Rob- inson. In their only previous meet- |ing Woodruff beat Robinson in jconvincing fashion to win the Na- fltlonal 800-meter title {COWBOY HEAVYWEIGHT 'STOPS FRESNO BOXER |IN BAY CITY FRACAS ; SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Aug. 2— {Sonny Walker, Phoenix, Arizona |cowboy heavyweight, kayoed Frank |Connelly, of Fresno, California, in !the fifth round of a scheduled ten- frame fight here. !, To Robinson the new mark means of residents and natives, and each | year when necessary makes recom- mendations for modifications in i the regulations to meet emergencies and to provide for the welfare of |those dependent upon these re- |sources, with due consideration for proper conservation of the several species of wildlife. hrough the efforts of the members of the commission and the enforcement personnel of that organization, a very wholesome re- |speet has been developed in most |sections of the Territory for proper conservation, and no effort has ibeen spared to educate the people !of Alaska along these lines. | “This jcommissiont continuously {has been deeply interested in the conservation of the wildlife re- sources of the Territory and condi- tions have steadily improved since lits inception in 1925, while at the same time the greatest possible use of these resources has been allowed rthe natives and other people of Alaska. 1 All to Aid Indians | *“The depletion of the wildlife resources in Alaska is fraught with | grave consequences. Native Indians, !Eskimos 'and halfbreeds comprise slightly more than half of the population of the Territory, and a great proportien of these natives 'are largely dependent upon these resources for their food and cloth- ing, and if these resources should ke seriously impaired it would have the effect practically of pauperizing large numbers of these peoples, with the result that they would become a tremendous burden upon the Pederal Treasury as wards of the Government. Because of this, the continuation of Federal con- trol of these resources is considered advisable; and it is believed that the United States is in better posi- tion than the Territory of Alaska would be to deal with transient exploiters, Not Self-Supporting “Administration of the wildlife resources in Alaska is not self- supporting.

The itch to fly is getting him. After a long pediod of convales- cence at Fairbanks, Pilot Hubbard and his mother went south to Se- attle about three months ago. Fol- lowing an operation on his injured foot, Pilot Hubbard spent a good part of his stay in Seattle with that member bottled up in a big plaster cast. N Now the cast is off and his clipped wings are nearly full grown again.

Miss Phillips has been in Alaska since last spring, traveling here in connection with the motion picture party of Mr. Norman Dawn. She returned from the Interior with the film group, early this summer, and has been visiting in Juneau since then.
