The Red Sox have lost a majority

put them right back As contenders
for the 1918 pennant. With Bush re-

the single exception of the worlds
champions. Thus, the American
League is practically assured OF a
two-club fight, and not a runaway
affair for the White Sox.
According to the present outlook
the National League hopes TO weather
the storm OF war through the efforts
OF New York and Chicago. The
American League will do the same by
means Of Chicago and Boston. In
each case the city most easily
strengthened has been aided. 1t has

JOHNNY LAVAN TO
QUIT DIAMOND TO
SERVE UNCLE SAM

Johnny Lavan is not likely to be
found in the Griffmen's shortfield next
season. He has passed his examina-
tion for a commission in the medical
corps of the navy, and is now await
ing orders to report, according to dis
patches received today from st. Louis.
DIR. Lavan, now practicing his profess
sion at q ST. Louis hospital, went to
the Greet Lakes naval training sta
tion for his examination.
Lavan's enlisting will have no effect
upon the recent trade between the
Browns and GrIffmen. 1t was under
stood that each team took chances at
having the players report. Therefore
st. Louis keeps Bert GalIis and the
$4,000, while Washington stands to
lose LavanS
Manager Griffith declines to give
up hope OF having Lavan with the
team, at least for this coming season,
but at the same time he is not letting

which several similar ones have been held, between representatives of the Miners Union and Publishers of the Nome Daily Nugget, and after care fully considering the matter from every conceivable point of view, dur ing the past few months, the pub fishers of the Daily Nome Industrial Worker, have decided to cease the publication of the Worker as a daily newspaper, on and after May 1st, 1918. Thereafter, and until further notice, the afoTesaid news paper will be published as a tri- weekly to-wit.- on Tuesday, Thurs day and Saturday.
 The Nome Dcily Nugget will also be published as a tri-weekly, com mencing May 1Gt, to-wit:- on Mon day, Wednesday and Friday.
 After the contemplated change has been made, the price of sub 1criptions, and the advertising space will remain the same as at present. This change is being made to correspond with existing conditions brought about on account of the Worlds crisis now raging ir Europe. Printing material of every descrip- tion has gone up nearly 400 per cert since tle war commenced. There will be no reduction in our telegraphic news service. We will If Ger the change is made, publish two days telegraphic messages in each alternate days issue. j. Instead of publishing the Worker in the morning as at present. We will endcavor after May 1st to pub l:sh it on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at about o:30 p. m., so to reach the business houses before hey close at 6 D. m. When the above change is in vogue, there will be just one. daily newspaper in Nome, between and D. m. each of the six days in the week (except Sunday).
