NEWS NOTES

Knut Roland brings the report that the mining activity in the Iditarod and Tocotna will be greater this com ing season than ever before. Higgins and Thorns, of Tocotna, recently bought two horses to haul their machinery and 800 cords of wood to their property on Gains creek. A new dredge is reported to be going in on Yankee creek next spring
 Nate White came over from Sun rise last Saturday on a little business trip, and will return next Wednesday morning.

AUTO LINE

An auto line is to be established between Anchorage and Seward. L. P. Byrne owns the machine, and Tom Nicely will operate it. The govern ment is now employed in breaking the trail beyond Eagle river, following the course of the summer trail. It will not be possible to use the rail way grade beyond Eagle river, be- cause track-laying gangs will soon be employed thereon. As soon as the new trail is we'll broken, the auto will begin to make runs.-Cook Inlet Pioneer.

TWO LIVES LOST IN STORM

WRANGELL-Two lives at least, and possibly more, are the tolls of the big storm that ragged here last Thursday Charles Ya-cook and George Kelly left Deep Bay on Zarembo Island bound for Wrangell on the gas boat Susie, last Thursday, which was the last seen of either alive. The boat was found drifting Saturday betwen Vanks Island and Brush Island, with all her upper works a total wreck and her house carried away. A searching party was sent out at once to look for the missing men, and Peter Johnson and George Shakes found the body of Va cook on the lower end of Vanks Island where he had evidently perish ed from exposure. He had discarded his clothing all except a suit of under wear and placed a life belt on and succeeded in swiming ashore where he arrived exhausted after his battle with the waves and crawled up the beach some fifty feet from high wat CT mark where he probably became numb from the cold and perished. The body of Kelly has not been found and it is believed that he perished as he was not used to roughing it as he only arrived up from q school in the states some three weeks ago.
 Charley Ya-cook was a well known native of Wrangell and leaves a widow He was about 49 years of age. George Kelly was about Is years old and leaves a father, John kelly, and two brothers here and a sister in Juneau. John Kelly heading searching party is still looking for his body-Wrangell Sentinel.

x When successful the hit and run is vastly more valuable than any other form of attack. A sacrifice simply puts a runner on second at the expense of an out. A steal is risky, and if it goes through the runner has advanced only one base. But the hit and run. when going through just as hoped for, Ad- vances a runner from first base to a scoring position at, third, and at the same time. puts the batter on first, without the expense of an out.
 It is small wonder that some mana gers go nutty. about this play and at tempt it over and over again to the ex- clusion of ali other forms of attack. The trouble with it lis that the per- centage of times that 1t really goes through as attempted is very small gThe main objection to it is that it as qften causes the batter to hit foolishly at bad balls which he has no chance to drive safely and that takes too much responsibility off the runner. who does not try to steal for himself, but relies too much on the batter to help him out. When used with judgment and only
 with a batter up who knows what he is doing it is valuable form of attack.
 When used too frequently and without
 regard to the caliber of the hitter it is a delusion and snare.

Some Brothers Who Have Helped Make Sporting History

absolutely refused to train and passed out of the game without attaining any prominence aside from the fact that they were brothers to the once Terrible Terry.
 Leonards Promising.
 Of the present crop of fighters. aside from the Gibbons and Ertles. the name of Leonard is most impressive. Benny Leonard. by his great fight against Freddie Welsh, is looked upon as the next lightweight champion. Bennys brother Charley joined the profession al clan only recently and quickly gained a reputation as a knocker out. The Moore family of Philadelphia has no less than five fighting boys-PaL Tommy, Reddy. Willis and Joe. In the Cross clan of New York there are Leach. Phil, Dave and Marty. All have earned some money in the ring. Joe Chip and George Chip are both middIeweights. George having held the championship a few years ago.
 In Philadelphia there is Young Jack O'Brien. brother of the original Phila- delphia Jack. the first light heavy weight champion in the game. The eld- CT Jack retired nearly five years ago. About three years ago he presented his younger brother-about sixteen years younger-to the boxing public. The lad started promisingly, but was rushed along too fast and received many se- were ybeatings. He dropped out of the game for year, and now he is fighting in his old form again.

Number of Baseballs Used
 In Game Varies Greatly

THE number of balls used in cham
 pionship game varies greatly. Sometimes only two or three are used during the entire contest, while on oth- CT occasions a dozen or even more may be called for. It is an extremely rare thing for single ball to go all the way through game.
 To baseball writer's knowledge this has happened only once at the Cincin- nati bail grounds in the past ten, or twelve years. One afternoon in 1913, when Joe Tinker was manager of the Reds. full nine inning game lasting nearly two hours was played with only one ball.
 E Hank O'Day was umpiring. and he called Manager Tinker's attention to the unusual incident after the contest was over. \ Tinker kept the ball which had lasted nine innings as memento of the occurrence, which. he Said, he had never observed before
 i The reason so many balls are used is not that they are worn out or torn to pieces. but that so many are batted out of the grounds or into the stands. A league ball is guaranteed by the man. ufacturers to last for full nine inning game and retain its shape and sub

SOME GOOD "wHIF" RECORDS.

THE record of twenty-four strikeout
 in a nine inning game. credited tc Pitcher Davis of the Killeen (Tex.) high school team in a game against Belton, calls to mind other remarkable strikeout records.
 The American league record was made by the late George (Rube) Wad- dell. who famed sixteen in the contest between St. Louis and the Athletics on July 2s. 1908.
 Pitcher Daley struck out nineteen in a Union association game between Chi cago and Boston on July [. 1884: Tom Ramsey turned seventeen batters back to the bench in an American associa- tion contest between Louisville and Cleveland on June 2: 1887. and this was remarkable performance as at that time the four strike rule was in ex- istence. t
 On Aug. 21. 1909. William Mitchell famed twenty batters in Texas league game involving San Antonio and Galveston. During the year 1912 Frank Davis of the Knoxville Ap- palachian league club. and Fred Ap- plegate of the Blue Grass league. also famed twenty batters. A. A. Stagg. now coach of the University of Chica- go. while student, at Yale struck out twenty Princeton batters in the Yale Princeton game of May 26. 1888. and this probably is the best college record to date.

Why Managers Cling to
 The Hit and Run Play

IN = game between Cincinnati and
 Pttfsburgh recently Bill Hinchman, 1lio heavy hitter of the Pirates, gave n illustration of why it is that mana GeEs cling 90 closely to the hit and run play. Twice in one game indeed, in ouccessive times at bat-Bill advanced ' baSe runner from frst all the way around to third by dinky hits placed exactly right.
 In both cases he drove the ball through to right field 1uat aa5 Louden Wto going over to cover second base. thb runner on first having started down ao # to steal. Hinchman is more apt to hit to left field, and for that reason \ 1joudeh war signed up to cover second n case of an attempted steal.
 V Hinchman outguessed the Red de- fense both times. and his cleverness was good for . run on each occasion. That is the essence of the hit and run play which succeeds, and is a valuable ntfaclEing medium if the batter is able 10 hit the ball through the infieId. K With such . good hitter as Hinchman ID 1t often looks extremely good. If 4 khe batter is clever enough to discover which man is going to cover second base and then hit the ball through his position he has turned a stroke of poli- sy that may win the game for his team.

stance. If 1t does not do so 1t will be replaced by new one without charge
 But to avoid delays the rules provide that the umpire in charge of the game shall always have at least one ball in his possession besides the one that is in play. As a matter of practice the umpire is always provided with three new balls before the start of the game. As soon as ball is knocked into the stands or over the fence he at once pro vides the pitcher with another ball. which becomes the ball in play.
 If this ball, is also knocked out of the grounds before the other is returned he asks for another ball from the man ager of the home team or whoever is acting as custodian of the balls. So he always has a fresh ball in his pocket. and the game is never delayed by wait ing until ball is returned from the stands. The official ball is five ounces in weight and nine inches in circum- ference.
 The same ball is. used in both the Ma tional and American leagues, though it goes under different name. Both of fetal balls are manufactured by the same firm. the only difference being ip the stitching

Withdrawals From Beaten Sixteens

THE habit contracted by many well
 known golfers of dropping out of the beaten divisions of the various six teens is not beneficial to the game at large or to the golfers themselves in particular When a player enters a tournament he has usually made pro- visions for remaining until the last day. in the expectation or the hope of get ting into the final round. The various clubs are only too generous in provid- ing separate trophies for these beaten divisions, and a succession of defaults is not calculated to impress upon the tournament committee the advisability of purchasing similar unappreciated trophies on future occasions. The more golf each man plays at tournament the more successful the tournament is and the more enjoyment the individuals derive from it. It is for this reason that the usual handicap event is played on the last day of the tournament. and

NO SUCH THING AS PITcHER's
 fat BOX

NEARLY every baseball writer and
 fan talks of the pitchers box, all though there Is no such animal. Many years ago the pitcher used to work from parallelogram, which was called his box, just as the batters box is laid out today. But the pitchers box was eliminated long ago. There are no lines in the diamond to indicate where the pitcher must confine his efforts.
 The modern hurler pitches from slab or plate and not from box. Slab- man Is, therefore, a much better term for the hurler than boxman, though the latter term, for historical reasons, is used. The pitchers plate is slab of rubber 2 feet long by inches wide sunk into the diamond at distance of sixty and one-half feet from the rear corner of the home plate.
 The slab is placed with it's longitude extending across the diamond, and the front side of 1t is just & shade more than three feet in front of direct line connecting first and third bases. The pitcher, therefore, does not work from a point exactly in the center of the diamond, but he has the advantage of about three feet, being that much near es the batter than he would be if the .nitcher's plate was laid right in the middle of the field.
 The only restriction on the pitcher in working is that he must keep one foot in contact with the plate until the ball leaves his hand. The plate is two feet long, and he can stand on either end or in the middle so long as one foot is touching the rubber.
 The pitcher used to work from a point much nearer the home plate than he does now If the effectiveness of pitchers ever threatens to injure the game seriously by reducing batting to a minimum the simplest remedy will be to move back the pitchers plate three feet pr more

JOE STECHER. the phenomenal
 young wrestler. brought from ob- livion by the revival of the mat game. says many of his matches have been won for him by newspapers
 "On account of the dope written about me am known as the chap with wonderful leg scissors hold," says Stecher. Tt has been written that l have a squeezing pressure of several thousand pounds in my legs and that the hold I use is deadly. In fact, the leg scissors has become as famous as the Gotch toe hold.
 Consequently, every wrestler meet is on the lookout for the scissors grip and he leaves openings for other holds.
 'I have not used the scissors in half my bouts. I know and use other holds. just like other wrestlers do. Half the time do not have to think about us-
