And on low balls that| keep a mental library containing | ably know, are given with fingers projecting from under the mitt, held between the legs away from the eyes of baseline coaches and the opposition dugout. It's a good idea to work out an alternate set of signals and switch back and forth when a man's on second so that he can't catch on to your sig- nals and relay them to the coach- es and batter. Now a few rules of play: Al- ways keep an eye on a runner on first and fake an occasional throw to first to keep him close if you think he’s contemplating a steal. Never leave your position at the plate if there's a runne rin scoring position. And when a runner is pounding for home on a basehit do all these things: Block that plate, legitimately, and watch the runner out of the corner of your eye as you concen- trate on the ball speeding toward you. If he slides as you catch the ball, play for his foot, Always tag that foot—it's the first part of his body to get to the plate. There’s no doubt about it, catch- ing is a tough job. But if you have any aptitude for it and practice plenty, you can master it. BRISTOL BAY IS REPORTED Many Red Salmon Packed |, , i, \"' uflv"nhg"! L % . %n. KFAR E"G|“£ER Corporal Bob Clarke of Atlin, now by Eight Canneries in Operation A very favorable early run of red salmon in Bristol Bay, a run which was increasing last week, is reported to the Bureau of Fish-| eries here. In the first five days of the| season the pack of the eight can- neries operating in Bristol Bay this year amounted to 73,902 cases. The pack consisted of 69,534 cas | reds, 2,080 kings and 2,288 chums.| Good catches are expected this year because of the curtailed oper-! ations which give those fishing better breaks due Yo lessening of competition. Another report received by the Bureau was that there has been no settlement to date in the Ko- diak Island fishermen's strike, Four Island canneries are packing trap-| caught fish. One packer is salting| and one Alitak packer operating at capacity under cooperative agreement. —,—— i REPUBLICAN PARTY MEETING at Juneau City Hall, 8 p.m., Tues- day, July 9th, 1940, for report on; Philadelphia Convention from seat- ed delegates.
