BALL MEETING 1S SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY The baseball brains on Gastineau Channel will swing into action to- morrow night when the Managers of City teams and League officials will meet at the Fire Hall at 7:30 o’clock. ‘The revision of League rules, the opening date of the season, player rosters and a number of important questions will come before the meeting. League officials are keenly aware of the responsibility of maintaining high caliber base- tall in Juneau, and every effort will be made at this first meeting to get a strong baseball league established. New ball players in Juneau and Douglas will get a chance to try out for Gastineau Channel base- ball immediately in special prac- tice sessions which will begin Wed- nesday or Thursday evening. It is Lelieved that these early practices devoted to the newcomers will en- courage new baseball talent on the Channel to turn out, as it wil allow sufficient time to get arms and batting eyes in shape before the first game. League officials are of the opinion that the general public can do a lot in recruiting high class ball players for the league. Every ball minded citizen is urged to contact ball players who wish to play this summer, Fire Chief Minard Mill and League officials spent Saturday afternoon at the City Ball Field studying the work necessary to get the grounds and structures in shape for the season. Chief Mill stated that considerable work will be necessary at the ball field this year, and that the Juneau Volun- teer Fire Department will take care of these details early in May. 51 ABOARD PAN AM WEEKEND CLIPPERS Pan American World Airways flights carried 52 passengers on weekend flights as follows: From Fairbanks: M. Flint, Mr. and Mrs. John Lind, Arthur B. Judson, Mitchell Kiamie, Lee Tay- lor, and Mrs. H. E. Young. From Annette: Irene Lohman, Regina Hetfleisch, J. D. At Los Angeles, 11,514 fans saw the Oaks bang out six homers to win 9 to 3 and 11 to 6. George Metkovich and Loyd Christopher each got a pair in the two games. At Seattle, the Rainiers’ Guy Fletcher won his third straight in Bridges in the opener.

Tom Neill doubled tin the winning run for Seattle. In the second game, Portland handed tig Herman Besse his fifth loss of the season. The Beavers notched the win when the Rainiers’ shortstop Jackie Albright let one 20 through him. Leo Thomas scampered home from second for the deciding run. Attendance was 9,040.
