In the Fairbanks Weekly Times ap-

After explaining the different occupa-

THE presiding officers of both houses
were republicans" and adds, "probab-

The public is very thankful for the
timely information no doubt. as many

Important Changes
Made in the Rules
For Basket Baners

Local basket ball teams will have
to get on to few changes of the laws
of the game this year. One of the
most important is that the center man
will not be allowed to catch the ball
on the jump, but will be compelled to
bat it. This Is expected to do away
with the holding Of an opposing CEN
ter when the ball is put into play.
Numerous complaints have reached the
ears OF the rules committee that hold
ing was becoming prevalent. and the
new law has been drafted to overcome
the foul.
Another important point touching
center man is the wording Of the rule
which starts the men of at center. In
the past the center men have usually
stood on their baskets, but the new
rule positively insists that the men
must each face their own basket.
The change in the rules outside of
these two important factors are not
very great, and summed up in a few
words are as follows:
Ball out of bounds If a man over
runs line and fails to withdraw his
foot Immediately.
Player returning ball out of bounds
must be given free throw.
Ball shall be held by the hands
only. II any other part Of body is
used 1t is a foul"

IN PEACE
MISSION
By JOE MURPHY

President Al T. Baum held his con-
ference with Ed Maier yesterday in
Los Angeles in regard to Overall re-
turning to the Seals, but, according
to press dispatch from the south,
nothing definite was accomplished.
Baum had his little talk with Maier
and at the conclusion of 1t the league
president decided to pass the entire
matter up to J. Cal Ewing.
Judging from the reports which
come up from the south Maier did
not induce or coerce overall to leave
the Seals, but the big pitcher solicited
the position which Maier agreed to
give him. The dispatch further says
that any suspicion that Maier had
an Interior motive in causing Overall
to quit baseball has been removed,
and this point Maier made plain to
President Baum
The reason why Overall decided to
quit the game has not been made
plain, but he must have a good rea-
son for quitting.
Ewing is still on the ailing list, but
as soon rs he RECEIVERS he can be ex-
pected to open UP the matter again
frestdent Baum is due to arrive some
time today.
Walter McCredie has decided to
retain his present staff Of players for
next season He was anxious to get
Grover Land and Buddy Ryan for his
club. but now that he has lost out on
these men he will not part with any
OF his present tossers. He was will
ing to allow Bill Rodgers and Tv
Lober to go to the big league If he
could land Ryan and Land
McCredie must be given credit for
trying to assist his men along. He
Is always willing to land them big
league berths. He seems to take ..
certain amount OF pride in developing
stars and he has furnished his share
of talent to the big leagues since he
has managed the Beavers.

sack during the coming season. With
McArd1e and Pfyl as first sackers,
Howard would have little to do. Del
is about finished as an active player.

Sepulveda, the young catcher. The
club Is willing to part with Schmidt
If fair trade can be made Ewing
and Howard would like to see Schmid-
dy get a chance in fast company, but
they want to get fair exchange for
him.
1t is figured that with Mig Clarke
working in the form he displayed DUR
Ing the last month OF the season and
Sepulveda improving all the time the
Seals will be well fortified behind the
bat.
Manager Walter McCredie OF the
Beavers announces an important
change In the lineup of his club for
next season. He has decided to make
a regular first baseman out OF Bill
Epeas and use Derrick for utility
first baseman. Speas showed q lot OF
class around the initial sack last sea-
son in the opportunities he had to
play there. Speas has developed into
