 Bruner has won all his games in Class A and becomes the winner of that class. Mathison is the winner of Class B. Class c has not yet been definitely decided but will be decided between Evans and Stine in all prob ability at their next game. If Stine loses Evans becomes the winner. If Evans losses to both Stine and Daub there will be three ties to play off in Class c before the winner can be de- termined

ANNOUNCEMENT.

In announcing my candidacy for councilman at the coming election, l want the voters and taxpayers to know just how I stand on matters per taining to the welfare of Seward.
 l believe the standard of our public schools should be equal to any in AL aska.
 believe in public improvements O" a sane and business like plan. l do not believe in squandering monies. l believe in conducting the business of the city on the same conservative plan in which business men conduct their private affairs. Am opposed to any Civic Improvement plan, involv- ing the expenditure of half million dollars. Those conditions might exist forty years hence, but we are not ready yet nor is any city in Alaska. l believe in bringing the assessed valuation of Seward down to where it justly belongs. I believe in a tax levy sufficient to conduct the affairs of the town for the ensuing year-Our | assessed valuation is too high.
 believe in maintaining an up-to- date Fire Department and paying the volunteers sufficiently to awaken a new and greater interest in the de- partment. Their efforts have not been fully appreciated.
 Water For Fire Protection.
 If the Council is aware of insufici- ent water for fire protection it is up to them to arrange for it, and if necessary, install an auxiliary salt water pumping station, an emergency station. I believe that all Federal property enjoying the protection of the police and fire departments should bear their share of the burden and up keep of these departments and with the proper cooperation with the Federal Commission this may be obtained
 I believe in employing the oldtimers on all city work so far as is consist ent, and paying not less than 50 cents per hour therefor.
 If the above platform appeals to you, l ask your vote.
 Respectfully,

With this record slowed away in cold storage Steve takes vacation Sunday morn ing a little trip down the bay only to find on his return that during his ab- sence Derry Lane, by fair means and some fowls, had in the boldest and most brazen manner pulled Steve's high average out of cold storage, re- placing 1t with one of his own of 2,44. No Class A player has been seen look ing at Class B score sheet since.
