Dave Bancroft, brilliant shOrtstOp
of the New York Giants, is rated as
a smart ball player.
Hughey Jennings. now acting as
assistant 70 John McGraw in direct
ing the Giants. says that Bancroft
IS the brains of the New York club.
Only recently in a game in the
National League. Bancroft pulled a
play that might have given him

rescue.

II was a hard hit ball and the fielder
was compelled TO so deep 10 make
the play.
II so happened that the runner on
third was very fast man. also
that the fielder making the eaten
had a rather poor throwing arm.
These two things tended 10 save the
day for Bancroft.
The runner on third held his base
until the fly ball was caught The
moment il struck the hands OF the
fielder he dashed for the plate.
The fielder with the weak arm,
realizing that he was too deep to
have any chance Of cutting the run
ner down at the plate. returned the
ball Ieisurely 20 the !nfeld.

The team IN the field contended
that in fielding the ball, Bancroft
had killed chance for a play AZ the
plate and for such interference ;he
runner who had scored should be
declared out.
The umpire at the plate however.
ruled that the run had crossed the
plate before Bancroft even touched
The bail. and that the act OF the New
York shortstop In no way prevented
play. since there was no play 'os-

WILLS NOT LOGICAL
DEMPSEY OPPONENT
NORTHWEST THINKS
Negro Mauler Defeated in
Four Bouts and Is Classed
as Rank Amateur"

PORTLAND Ore. July 29-How
does it happen that Harry Wills,
the negro heavyweight. has been
matched to meet Jack Dempsey for
the title2
That is what boxing fans in this
section Of the country are asking
since a match between Dempsey
and the New Orleans ginger-drop
seems virtually assured.
OF all negro heavyweight maui
ers why should Wills be chosen as
the logical man to meet the hard
pounding Mr.. Dempsey?
Boxing enthusiasts Of the north
west simply cannot swallow Wills
as an opponent for the fast slugger
who hammered Fulton. Willard
Brennan and Carpenter into sub
mission.
And their opinions ere based on
frst-hand evidence. for the north
west has seen Wills i'm four bouts
during the last six months. In none
of these scraps did he show any
thing which appeared 10 entitle
him to consideration as an oppo-
nent for Dempsey and in two OF
them-those against Bill Tate-he

Of his so-called crown as negro
heavyweight champion

United States is Tom LOutitt re-

weight champion of the Pacific
Coast. who refereed all four Of

why he awarded Tate the decision

SCHOOL NOTES
ELTON ENGSTROM, Editor.

l The Wrangeli High School basket ball team returned home from its southern trip partly successful. The Ketchikan townspeople received a rather unpleasant surprise when it's heretofore undefeated team met de- | feat at the hands of the -Wrangell High School. The Ketchikan team played a very hard game. After the first half, Ketchikan made a strong attempt to regain the lead. The fn- ishing score was 15 to 10 in favor of Wrangell. At the end of the first half the score was to 2 in Wsangell's fla vor. Thefinishing score was 15 to 10 in favor of Wrangell. The end of the firstt half was to in Wrangell' s favor. The Wrangell team was hand icappen by the low ceiling of the Ketchikan hall.
 Metlakatla won from Wrangell Hi by score of 24 to IS. The score at the end of the first half was Is to s in favor of Metlakatla. The team feels that the loss of the game was due to the fact that the school gym in which the game was played was about the size of St. Philips Gymna- sium.
 The All Stars and the Big Five went to Petersburg and made clean sweep defeating both Petersburg teams. The scores were: All Stars 22; Petersburg Hi School 8. Big Five 27; Petersburg Scouts '. Poor Petersburg! Shell never learn."
 The Petersburg teams will play the All Stars and tho big Five next Sat urday night at the Rink.
 Mr. Everett of Metlakatla acted as referee for both games. His refer eeing was of the best, and showed no favoritism for any team.
 The Metlakatla people and teach CTS treated the team like princes, showing thm very good time. A l afterwards a dance was given.
 The weather was the best possible for travelling at this time of year. The engine broke down about fifteen miles from Wrangell and some of the passengers became seasick. Outside hof this incident the trip was enjoyed by all.
 Before the game with Ketchikan several telegrams were received from Home telling the boys not to be dis outraged by losing the Metlakatla game. These telegrams,' frightened the boys up good deal and they went into the game determined to win.
