on April 12. With a very few changes Moley's men will line up in this formation against the Vols in the opener.
 White sox Are Classy
 The White Sox have an unusually strong lineup to present against the Barons, considering that only com rarRtively short time has passed since scandal wreaked terrible de- struction in Chieagos offensive and defensive strength. Here Is the way the White Sox will line up this after noon:
 Johnson, shortstopG Strunk,
 center held; Collins, second bnsei
 Hooper, right held, Mostil or
 FaIk, left field; sheely, first baseI
 Ostergard or Mcclellan. third
 base; SchaIk or Yaryan, catcher;
 Hodge, pitcher.
 Hodge is the ex-Vol who twirled such good ball in the Southern league while back.
 There are several notable figures in major league baseball listed to op- pose the Barons this afternoon. Ray Schal6 Is regarded as one of the best catchers in the game today, it not the best Amos Strunk is splen- cid hitter, while Yaryan, who helps sohalk do the backstopping, is the noted home-run expert from the Western association.
 Hooper, cleanup man for the Sox, while not a Babe Ruth by any means, made homers with surprising regu- larity last season. He takes healthy swat at the ball. and Is a corking good fourth position man.
 Local raiibirds have yet to witness their first professional baseball game for 1922. and. weather permitting, an unusually large crowd is expected to be on hand to witness the Barons start operations with the big league ufhitn Snr this A affarnoon

Pinehurst, N C.. March 31.-Good luck and good golf conspired to place Jock Hutchinson of the Glenvlew club of Chicago, British open champion, in the lead in the North and South Open Golf Championship tournament here. His card of 33-37-70 for the morn ing round was bettered in the after noon by Pat OHara of Richmond county, who made 33-S6=69 for second round.

 The Panther lnfeld is probably less experienced than that of the Bulldogs as two of the men holding down posi- tions in the inner works are fresh men. Ben Englehert on third base. and Julian Anderson on short, are the two new ones. Second base will be in the hands of Frog Miller, veteran on the Hilltoppers machine, while Jack Stuart. another regular, will round out the infield by holding down the initial bag.

George Farrar, old-time Yukon pros pector, has located discovery claim on Gladstone Creek, on Indian River and has recorded his discovery at the gold office in Dawson, according to the Dawson News. Both quartz and placer are reported to have been found, and applications have been made by other stakers for about 10 quartz claims and the same number of placer claims on the same creek.
 It is reported that number of other men in the vicinity have gone to stake, and that some others are leaving Daw- son for the creek.
 Gladstone Creek enters Indian River about seven miles above the mouth of Indian. which in turn flows into the Yukon River.

 More than two years ago the Alguni- can Development Co.,, a Belgian syn dicate, bonded this group, along with the adjoining Woodbine and Cobalt groups, but financial reverses, due to the aftermath of the war, forced them to relinquish their bond on these and other properties. These condi- tions have now undoubtedly worked to the advantage of the Premier com pany, since the Northern Light can

H. c. Strong of Ketchikan and Charles Black, president of the Seat tie Hardware Company of Seattle, have taken an option on the Riverside group of mining claims on the main road leading out from Hyder and will begin development work as soon as the snow disappears. The group is known as the Seven-Mile property and is owned by Dan and Andy Lindeborg and H. D. Ickis. It was among the first locations to be made on the Amer ican side of the line.
 Considerable development work has been done on the property. One tun- nel was driven in for 240 feet and an other at a lower level for 100 feet. Both tunnels are said to be in ore practically the whole distance. Sam bling has resulted, it is said, in finding an average value of $2O ton. Ore running as high as $2OO a ton, it is said, has been found in the lower tun- mel.

 Egan Petrokov, a well-known min ing man of Valdez, together with Mike Grubic, a miner at Kennecott, recent ly located ten claims on a rich gold lead in the Skagit Valley, in the State of Washington. Assays of ore from the claims, made by w. c. Lord, as sayer for Faulkenburg & Co.,, of Seat tie, gave returns of $52 in gold and eight cents in silver per ton.
 The vein was first discovered by MT. Grubic some time ago while he was doing some blasting on the Skagit Power project. He kept his find a secret, and lated confided the story of his find to MT. Petrokov, and in April they went outside and located the ground. Both men returned to Alaska, MT. Petrkov to Valdez and MT.

The Healy River Coal Corporation, which is supplying fuel to the Alaska Railroad on the northern division, and local markets at Nenana, Fairbanks and the creeks in the district, hopes to secure capital for the construc- tion in cooperation with Alaska Rail- road of three-mile spur to the mine and for extensive development on the property With the showings he has of coal deposits and operations al- ready under way he anticipates little difficulty in securing the necessary if nances.
 The Healy River Coal Corporation is one of the pioneers in the coal min ing industry in the interior. It opened up it's first workings on leasing unit over which the railroad passed and mined there for about two years. Later it secured a second lease on unit on the Healy River approximately two and one-half miles from. the railroad. On this tract it has surface showing of series of coal veins ranging in thickness from 47 feet down to 20 feet. The coal is a very high grade of liz mite. It has given satisfaction as steaming coal to the railroad and for fuel purposes at both Nanana and Fair banks and the company has made con siderable shipments to Anchorage in competition with the Matanuska coal.
 It is the plan of the company to con struct a spur leading from the rail road at point a short distance above Healy up Healy River to the mine. The undertaking involves spanning the Nenana River with a bridge and also a bridge across Healy River. Here tofore the company has been deliver ing coal from it's new workings in the winter months only. It's workings consist of a series = open cuts in the exposed veins from which the coal is conveyed by chutes down to sleds on the river and hauled over the ice about two and one-half miles to the railroad, where it is dumped into bunkers Under this method of operation coal has been landed in Fair banks and placed on the market at $6 per ton in car lots. By the develop ment planned by the company, the cost of mining will be greatly reduced as well as the transportation costs.

WANT BETTER SERVICE

business men at and near Francis
Creek have complained to The state
railroad commission about the charac-
ter of the service given by the c. &
n. w, railway at their station. The
following is the petition;
1--WE the undersigned, do hereby pc
tition your honorable commission for
the purpose of getting better service
from the Chicago and Northwestern
Il. Il. company at our local station. We
want the same service that we had
previous to the last change, viz: that
the depot be kept open for business
any time during the day with the ex-
ception of the noon hour.
Under the present schedule The Of
fees of our depot are closed for a
time in the forenoon and also for a
time in the afternoon. This present
system is a very great embarrassment
to our business men and also to all
people who ship freight of any kind.
"Thc present system is not only a
great loss of time to the party who has
any freight shipped in or shipped out
but if continued will ncceSstate desig
mating Manitowoc as a shipping center
for our local people, thereby assuring
them service any time that a customer
50 desires, We believe that the freight
rates are high enough to grant better
service from the c. & n. w. Ry. Co.
We therefore make this appeal to you
with the impression that you will give
us full consideration and use your good
influence to bring about a change.

LAST WIND JAMMER GONE

An epoch has definitely closed. The
last one has gone. She cleared port
Saturday as she has done so often in
the past, but this time never to return.
The schooner Oscar Newhouse, our last
survivor of large fleet of sailing
craft, most of them built here, has
been sold. The schooner was suppant-
ed this season by the power barge
White Swan, but the presence of the
old ship in the lower harbor moored
at her old wharf still kept the cord
unseyered that linked us to the past.
Now it's over. The boat was sold to
A. Larson of Green Bay for service
in carrying lumber.
There is no purpose in incoming over
old times. The old order passes away
and very few of our present day pop
ulation knows anything about, or cares
anything about, the gallant old sailing
ships that once made Manitowoc
known all over the inland seas. But
we have in town men who commanded
and sailed some of these ships in the
70's and SOS and they sighed perhaps
as they stepped into the car to go
down to the movies.
