THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, MONDAY, JUNE 30, 194! | HANGSUPSUT S | | SEATTLEIS [ BACK AGAIN P.C.L.RACE f;ke Doubleheader from, .San Francisco - Sacra- mentfo Loses Games | (By ASSOCIATED PRESS) | Seattle swept both ends of a doubleheader Sunday from San Francisco, making it six gamesout of (he seven-game series for the, Rainiers and putting them back in the Coast League race as Sacra- mento lost & doubleheader to the Hollywood, the Stars taking the FREE HAND COMINGUP | WANTED BY INJUNEAU ROOSEVELT SN Billy McCann Meels Sitka Adminislral?&n—io Ask Con- Kid in Ten Rounder on gress for Formal Night of July 4 Emergency | WASHINGTON, June 30. — The To settle for all thme who is the ,qpnjstration’ is reliably reported best man, Loil Lovas, ":"W“ as the o "¢ormal déclaration of national " | to have declded to ask Congress for pion, will put on the gloves ml‘; “: Commander-in-Chief of the armed rounds on the night of July 4th &% forces of the United States, a free the Coliseum Theatre. i | hand in defense moves. i The two boys have fought twice| qyo war Department, said in- | BIG FIGHT before, once in Juneau and once in Sitka, and both battles were de- clared draws, and both were furious, vicious affairs. Kid Is Favored According to information gathered from both promoters, “Slugger” Weaver and Dean Hamlin, the Sitka Kid is the favorite in the forth- coming scrap. The Kid will have in his corner, none other than Mc- Cann's favorite second, Eddie Pow- ers, who so cleverly engineered Mc- Cann through so many victores to his title. Besides the loss of his favorite second, McCann will be fighting a | fresh and well-trained Kid, while McCann, ‘Who is doing battle the! night before in Sitka, will be tired. | This may be his big mistake in at- | tempting to do the iron man stunt by trying to get the welterweigm‘ title in his Sitka fight. | The fight here will be for the) middleweight title at 160 pounds. Two fights for any man in two‘ nights is a big task but add to thls‘ a stronger Sitka Kid, and an in-| formed second in‘Powers who has sparred with and trained McCann, and it all adds up to the plain fact that McCann might be in for a good | lacing. Powers has been in McCann's corner in every fight up to his last | one in Sitka and if any man in, Alaska knows McCann’s weaknesses, Powers should. In Fine Shape The Sitka Kid, according to in- formation given by Powers today, is in excellent shape. He has been working out for some time in antici- pation of his fight with Brouillette | who was forced out because of a broken hand. This should be one of the best fights ever to be held in Juneau.} McCann is sailing from here short- : 1y after the fight to New York where ‘American Property he will attempt to get a shot at the world’s Welterwbight' titld néw held’ | formed sources, is urging such a' | declaration to permit indefinite re- tention of Selective Service trainees |as well as the National Guard and | Reserve Officers. | | Officials noted it likewise lifts the ! restrictions of the President’s power to order troops outside the Western Hemisphere. | by Fritzie Zivic. So a set back in this fight will not be so good. It is do or die for McCann in his last battle in Alaska. i Besides this main event whirl- wind there will be 22 rounds of pre- liminary fighting. Tickets are on sale today in many Juneau business houses. - DOUGLAS T0 MEET MOOSE ON ISLAND Rained out six days ago, a seven inning contest between the Moose and the Douglas nines on the Doug- las sand lot is scheduled to be play- ed off tonight in Douglas. i The game, third consecutive fray to be rained out in the last week,| will start at 6 o'clock.
