"PlPPINes FROM ge's SHELLS"

Tha tboy Francis sure robbed john
son of "a safe blow when he reached
over and knocked one down on the
line, recovered and threw Johnson
out at first. 1t was the fielding thrill
.of the afternoon and Francis was
given a good hand by the stands.
Kowalski went hitless in yester-
days game, which is something rare
for the little second sacker to do.
Whitley has been singing them on the
nose of late and has shown more bat
ting Improvement than any member
of the team.
Ever stop to count the number of
ball games that the Highlanders have
won in the first frame? figure them
up-it's good exercise.
Thursdays visitors will be the eel
larites, from Jaytown. It's not the
same gang that the locals have been
walloping of late. and some good
games are in store for the fans. If
you doubt it, look at yesterdays
game at Orlando.
The management of the local club
has changed the LADIES DAY from
Tuesday until Wednesday. as will be
noticed elsewhere on this page. So
come out every day, ladies, if you
will. but be sure and come Wednes-

coast of Valdez Island. off the British
Columbian mainland.
Prospectors leading pack animals
laden with provisions are rushing TO

Meanwhile II. T., Neave, veteran
prospector, who discovered the field
after nine years fruitless search, is
trying to induce more prospectors
TO come instead of claiming the whole
rich field for himself!
Neaye is probably the most altru

pick. He's carried on his search for
a new radium field, not to enrich him.
self, but to bring relief to cancer vic
tins.
A decade ago, when 1t first became
established that radium would alle-
viate If not cure the most advanced
cases of cancer. Neave. mining
engineer, resolved to devote his life to
seeking a new radium field.
Today in his home here he review.

that carried him from the heart of
Africa to Central Alaska-a tale OF

and finally-success
