MOBILE DUE TO

MICKEY" FINNIGAN WHO AL
LOWED MOBILE ONLY TWO
HITS TO PITCH TODAY.

Mobile Bears are out to win base
ball-they are also out after one Mr.
Mickey Finnigan scalp this after
noon at Maxent Park at o'clock.
They seem quite a bit peeved at the
manner Mickey let them down with
only two hits on last Sunday.
The Cushnocs, however, '.opine' that
whatever he may need to win they
will have right with them. There will
be several changes in the Cushnoc's
lineup today and they are "all set
to win. Finnigan is one of the best
semi-pro hurlers in the south and the
other pitchers are in good form.
Manager Coleman of the Mobile
team announced Saturday night that
he would probably use three pitchers
in todays contest, Luckonovic, Sc
cured from the St. Louis Browns;
Lance UT, of last years club, and
Dick Ching, a very capable southpaw.
Catching will be divided between Art
Ponds, youngster who seems to have
come to himself as a backstop after
trying numerous positions in the in
field.
A large attendance is expected. The
Mobile team is regarded as a strong
contender for the 1920 Southern
League penant and they will use the
same team here today that will play
the opening league game with New
Orleans next week.

gerous are New York and Detroit, be-
cause of their punch.
We can safely count Chicago, Wash

a remote chance of winning. The White
Sox are badly shot and are getting no
better, and while both the others have
improved the improvement is not suf-
ficient to give them a dark horse

In the National League. however,
only Boston and Philadelphia can be
thrown out entirely. st. Louis does
not figure well, but there are many
latent possibilities in the team.
Getting personal a bit, do not think
that Cincinnati will win--in spite of
the fact the figures show her to have
the most strength. Remember, it re
quires only a slight change of luck or
a few bad breaks in games to turn a
National League team into either a
champion or a sixth place club.
1t is human nature for Champions to
get a bit chesty and the Reds have
shown symptoms of this. Also it is
human nature for all the others to try
to beat the champions. In other words,
every team in the National with a
couple of good left handed pitchers
will save them and rest them up to

THE FINAL STANDINGS
American Leaaue.

Cleveland wins the American League
Dope Championship easily, with New
York a bad second, and Boston and
Detroit tied for third place and ST.
Louis close behind them.
In the National League the dope is 50
close that to pick a winner from the
first five is practically impossible. By
the closest sort of doping, and by
dealing with the fractional differences
between the teams, Cincinnati seems
TO have a slight shade due only TO the
consistency of the team. which may
or may not endure. Chicago dopes
second with Pittsburg and Brooklyn
very close up and practically tied in
every respect, except pitching in which
Brooklyn excels at present.
And here is one thing the dope has
taught me: When teams practically
tied in the dope figures, play the team
with the strongest pitching staff.
The National League dope shows a
queer thing in one respect. You
know, by my system, we endeavor TO
learn the position strength of each
team, in defensive work and the at

we simply figure the pitching strength
of one team against the attacking
strength of each other team in its

MOBILE Wins
FROM CUSHN0CS
VISITORS GO OVER THE TOP IN
FOURTH AND ROUT THE LOCAL
WITH FIVE RUNS.

A bad play at third by the Cush-
noes started a scoring matinee in the
fourth for the Mobile Bears and at
the close of this inning the neat sum
of five runs was of record. A wild
throw let in two runs and seemed to
unnerve other players during this ses-
sion, although they allowed only one
other run during the entire game, they
were unable to overcome this lead
against the brand of pitching served
up by Haid and Fulton.
Hero is how it all happened: The
two teams had struggled along for
four innings without advantage for
either side when Felber led off with
a single to left, Walter Golvin, on a
hit and run play, smashed safely to
| center. Manager Coleman singled,
| sending Felber across with the first
run of the game, Had hunted in front
of the plate and. when kircher's throw
to third was late, all hands went safe;
Mcmillan hit to short forcing Golvin
at the plate.
Then came the break of the game
and it was against the Cushnocs. AL
len hit to Coleman, at third for the
Cushnocs, and after cumming up the
play, he made it worse by heaving
the ball into the stands, allowing two
runners to waltz in home. Emmett

a couple of sacks to right center

total of runs during this inning.

BRIGHT PROSPECTS

It looks as though next season would be Alaska's year in mine de- Velopment and exploration in this district. Geologists have reported in tepms unintelligible to us com mon folks that owing to glacial ac- tion probabilities of finding ore at depth are better along the lower reaches of the mountains than above timber line. ProSpectors have dis covered and partially developed numerous properties on the Alaska side of the line, and some of them are still plugging away at their prospects, which are more accessi- ble than claims lying up toward the head of the divide
 In way. we hope the geologists are wrong, in part. We want to see such properties as the Forty Nine, Silver Tip and Spider, which ! above timber line, turn out to be big mines, and we believe they will do so. While recognising the val- ue of the geologist along certain lines, we haven't much use foT him in a mining district. He is usually pronounced pessimist, looking for the hole in the doughnut. But for this very reason such encourage ment as he offers becomes doubly valuable.
 Seven-mile, Fish Creek, Eleven mile and Texas creek will, we be- iieve, in the Ae ,uture .ustify the faith placed in them by numerous claim owners anu usher ill a wave of prosperity such as even the phe- nominal showings on the E. (. side of the line have not been able to produce.

methods have met with some criticism
from several prominent residents, it is
highly approved by Governor Coolidge

whom not only strongly defend the
girls. but highly praise them for their
plucky efforts.

AS they take to the broad highways
to sell their wares they seem to leave
