WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER RAINIERS IN FOURTH SPOT ONCE AGAIN (By the Associated Press) If the Hollywood Stars don't watch { their hits and pitches somebody’s | liable to bop them out of third place, | or even out of the first division in the Pacific Coast League. Manager Fred Haney's defending champions led the league the first, half of this season but succumbed | to Oakland July 12 and later »w:r passed by San Diego. The Stars seemed planted, in third place but the scramble in the middle of the race is so tight thht anything can happen in the last three weeks of the schedule Hollywood descended another step on the ladder by losing to San Diego 3-1 last night. This left the Stars only games ahead of the fourth place Seattle Rainiers, who took that spot away from San Francisco, again, by beating Los Angeles 9-5 while the Seals were losing to Portland 6-5. Oakland took a slugfest from last place Sacramento 10-7. With Seattle only a half ahead of San Francisco, and latter but three games atop Port- land, there are now only 6': game between third place Hollywood and sixth place Portland. Jim Baxes' 400-foot homer was Hollywood’s lone effort last night, nullified when San Di- ego’s Harry Simpson smacked a t\'\'u- then three game the score-tying Angels. Three-run clusters in the second and sixth were really all the Rainiers needed. Four Portland homers, by Jin Gladd, Mickey Rocco and two by Joe Brovia, his 36th and 37th thi year, were too much power for San Francisco. The Seals went down threatening, however, with a four- run rally in the ninth, stopped by relief pitcher Bill Fleming.

Sale FOOD SALE By Lutheran Ladies Aid at Se | Order Office Friday, Sept. a.m, To the Public 1 was very much interested and surprised to read in the Daily Alaska Empire under date of Sept, 14th, 1950, regarding the Postal Authorities thru the Clvll Aerondutlc.x Board allowing the Alaska Coastal Air- lines to receive a lump sum payment of $30,000.00 and a 609, increase in the future for mail carrying to Sitka, Alaska, and Way Ports over and above the revenue so far received. My inquiry to the Post- Master at Juneau was rewarded by the statement that she did not have any official notice of the allowance above stated. My surprise, I am sure, will be shared by resi- dents of all the communities along this specified route which for the past fifty years was served by surface transportation at the total cost to the Postal Depart- ment of approximately $15,000.00 per year; and in addition theerto the freight was delivered in any amount offered at a classified rate from $4.00 to $12.00 per ton instead of dabs and packages at the rate of $160.00 per ton. I am sure that it would be interesting to all con- cerned to know what the entire cost is, to replace this service that was previously done by boat. In addition to the revenue paid to the Alaska Coastal Airlines car- rying mail, it would be interesting to know the amount of Tax Payer’s Money expended in building and main- taining (at no expense to the Air Lines) the many floats and landing facilities served by the mail de- liveries, which are also used exclusively by the Air Lines for commercial purposes. Nothing of that sort was provided, expected or anticipated in the boat service, besides the boat in the past, and expect to in the future to pay the usual dockage fees at the various comunities including the starting point, Juneau, Al- aska. In this connection the Capital City of Juneau, therefore does not have any connection for mail service by surface transportation on this old established route. About one year ago the Island Transportation Co. of Juneau, Alaska, submitted a bid to thre Postal Department, to carry the same mail and serve these communitjes, Bondsmen furnished and qualified, and as yet we have not been officially notified one way or the other, or in other words the bid has not been accepted or rejected, altho the deadline was supposedly July 1st, 1950. At least one should expect under Democratic Rule the release of the bondsmen, instead of keeping them tied up while other concerns are doing the business for which our bondsmen have furnished the guarantee.
