PAGE EIGHT BASEBALL OPENER PLANS COMPLETED, FIREMEN MEETING Mill Ap pofniiis Group fo| Furnish Material for Douglas Beach ‘ The monthly Firemen's meeting got underway last night with com- wmittee reports and final prepara- tons for the season’s opening base- ball game Relative to furnishing the club room with new furniture, the fire- men agreed that the present pieces would require so much in the way of repairs that it would be more profitable to wait and buy new furnishings at a later date. Howard | Dilg reported that three hand- pumps for the small boat harbor| were on order and that other im-| provements for the harbor and docks remained under considera- tion. Jim Orme reported the base- | ball field to be in fair playing shape following the recent clean- | up by firemen. Joe Werner's proposal to form | a baseball school for Juneau's younger prospects was approved by a unanimous vote. Werner plans to conduct school- ing sessions for the young plnyera‘L beginning about the first of this summer, which is intended to in- clude the formation of a wooden- face club for young hurlers as proposed by Dr. James Ryan, Terri- torlal Commissioner of Education two weeks ago. Through this| medium it is possible that an ex- hibition with the teenage “wood-} en-face” winner from Seattle can be arranged. In addition to the developmem of a local “wooden-face” contest, coaching in all fields of baseball will be included in Werner's plan, in which he will be assisted by other local ball players. M. P. Mullaney, head of the Gastineau Baseball League, reiter- ated his desire that consumption of alcoholic beverages by specta- | tors be held to a minimum this season. Opening Game Battery O. R. Oleveland, league vice- president, named iour of the Sun- duy game starters, any of which cquld profitably be signed by the major leagues. Mayor Waino Hen- drickson will toss the first with U. S. Attorney P. J. Gilmore, ' Jr., catching the expected fire-ball. | Judge Holzheimer will be umpire in chief backing up the catcher, and Fire Chief Mill will be the first base-ruler on the field It was generally agreed at the meet that the construction of a fence to equalize the home run distances | in right and left fields would not be undertaken in the immediate future. Curtis Shattuck, chairman of Boy Scout activities in this area, said | that participation of the scouts in | ticket sales would not be definitely known until after the district com-l mitteg meeting Saturday. L. V. Card was voted concession rights at the park for an est mated two to three year period | in return for furnishing a ticket- | taker at the games and the con- struction of a portable refresh-! ment stand to be used at the park.! The definite period for which the! concession rights will be held is to be decided by Card and the firemen's ground committee. It was passed that the fire de- partment would not be respon- sible for league umpire payment| this season, and that complimen-| tary tickets would be furnished to| players and their families. Douglas Beach Work Chief Mill appointed a commit- tee of Spike MacLean, Frank Heinke, Herman Porter, Jim Orme and Ellis Reynolds to make ar- rangements for the provision of recreation material for the propos- ed Douglas Beach, being jointly undertaken by the city if Juneau and Douglas. The primary objec- tive in this field is to provide amusement for children visiting the beach. It was also voted to investigate further the proposed purchasing of some cyclone fencing from the ¢ity. The fencing can be had at & bargain price and can be put to good advantage at a later date, Mill said. In the way of commendations, firemen praised the Alaska Coastal Alrline crews for the excellent handling of their recent fire before the firemen could arrive. Mill pointed out that the Alaska Coastal crews proved to We excellently trained in accepted fire-fighting routines, and added that other or- ganizations in the city should strive for a similar perfection. At the request of firemen, Mill gave a short resumé of his recent trip to the states, and added that the Seattle Fire Department was a host second to none during his visit there. Mill witnessed a fire drill and commended the Seattle Department for efficiency in their work. He said he picked up quite | a few good ideas from the attle Department which ne will make known to the local fire fight- ers at their next meeting In concluding, Mill announced neau fire drill for May 13 at 7:30 o'elock in the evening Guests at last night's meeting were Curtis Shattuck, A.
