Plaver Limit Is Unchanged.


 The most important subject dis cusscd in the annual Pacific Coast Baseball League meeting last week in Salt Lake City was the player limit. The number of players will remain the same, but four of the eighteen men must not have played g full season in class AA or higher baseball. The salary limit was not taken up.
 Three-week training season has been abrogated, because weather conditions often interfered with the conditioning of the men. and clubs may start spring work at their own discretion.
 For the 1917 season the ban against exhibition games has been lifted. The only provision made in the rule is that no preseason con- tests with outside clubs may be played later than one week before the opening of the league season.
 The season will open April and NH ClOsc OCtoUcs 70. foTtldnu Op- ems at Salt Lake. Vernon at San Francisco, and Oakland at Los An ycles. No holiday dates were dis eussed.
 A heated discussion arose over whether the schedule should be re- luced to twenty-eight weeks. but lnally 1t was decided to play thirty weeks.

Form Basketball League.
 Tom Mcdonald, the leader and director of athletics on Douglas isl- and and at Treadwell, has. issued q call for the managers and captains of all basketball teams on the chan mel to meet tonight at o'clock at the A. B. hall in Juneau for the purpose of forming a basket ball league.
 Invitations have been extended to the Perseverance. Thane, Alaska Ju- neau, Arctic Brotherhood, Tread well, and also to any other organi- zation or camp which wishes to get Ia basketball team together and en- ter the league. It is expected that at least four-team league will be organized and possibly other teams will join before the regular series of games starts.

Alaska Juneau ............... % Juneau High School ...- IS Arctic Brotherhood -.... IS Perseverance ................ 8

The above figures give the actual results of the two basketball games as played last night on the floor of the A. B. gymnasium. The Alas ka Juneau and high school game was fast one, but previous experience told and the Alaska Juneaus were able to gain substantial lead on their younger opponents during the second half. The first half of the game ended to 6. Every man on both teams played a good game, but in the second half the high school team seemed to lose a little of their team work which had been so effective during the first half. Under the leadership of Captain Vincent. the Alaska-Juneau team played like cloclfwork and their ag- gressiyeness in the second half was a surprise to everyone.
 The A. B. team through the game showed the effectiveness of training and also of playing on their own floor The Perseverance team put up a game scrap and until the second half it was anybody's game. The first half ended for Perseverance to D for the A. B. team The Perseverance team was composed of good, experienced and fast players, but they had been slightly handicapped through lack of proper training quarters and a floor to play on. The A. B. team has been practicing on the gym floor and has been working out against the high school and Alaska Juneau teams for several weeks.
 The game was fast and scrappy and there was not dull moment. l and Kletzing of the A. B. | team showed up especially well due to their aggressiveness and their ability to shoot baskets from long distances and difficult angles, and they were ably assisted by every man on the team
 The line up of the A. B. team, which has not been published be- fore consisted of Mcqueen and l Kletzing, forwards; Blackwell and | Ed. Sweeney, guards, and Mathews center

The worlds champion Boston Americans and the Brooklyn team, champions of the National League, probably will play series of exhi- bition games in the South next spring.
 Harry Frazee, the new president of the Boston club. said that Pres ident Ebbets, of the Brooklyn club, favored the idea and had already partly made arrangements to trans fer the Brooklyn training camp from Daytona, Fla, to Hot Springs Ark, where the Red Sox will pre- pare. The tour has been approved by President Johnson of the Am erican League, according to Frazee.

At the orpheum.

Several weeks ago Charles Rich man was seen as the hero in "Thc Battle Cry or Peace" and tomor- row night comes back in a smash ing naval drama entitled "The Hero of Submarine D." The plot deals with the methods taken by an agent in the employ of a foreign country to steal valuable secrets Of the American government. There is plenty of naval action. a deep love plot and on top of it all the story is full of real Americanism. Elean- or Woodruff plays the part of the American girl who is finally won by the submarine commander.

Fox Has New Idea.

Fox Has New Idea.
 Mary Pickford left her regular program company and is now ap- bearing at the head of her own company in her own releases.
 Mable Normand ditto.
 Norma Talmadge ditto.
 Clara Kimball Young ditto.
 Mae Marsh ditto.
 Charles Chaplin ditto.
 And others are to follow.
 Tn each case, with the exception of Chaplin, who confines his ef- forts to making two-act comedies, these stars are to appear in big productions costing many times the cost of the usual five-act feature, and in all these cases the star men toned are appearing on programs different from those they were for merly aligned with.
 Now comes William Fox with a brand new idea. A telegaphic an nouncement states that Theda Bara and William Farnum will, beginning January l. appear in nothing but stupendous features costing upwards of s1OO,OOO. which is several times the usual cost of features. One Bara feature in contemplation will cost $25O,OO0, it is said.
 The difference between the Fox idea and the others is the fact that these big Bara and Farnum produc- tions will remain a part of the regu- lar Fox program customers.
