ELKS AND MOOSE MEET FOR FINAL
 GAME THIS YEAR
Lodge Entries in City League Finish Their Schedule
 at Park Tonight.
CITY LEAGUE STANDINGS

Both of the lodge entries in the City League finish the seasons sche- dule tonight when they meet at City Park in Timing fray. The Moose team has the pennant cinched no matter which way the game goes while the Elks have to win to hold clear title to second place.
 The Alaska Juneau, with one game to play, has an opportunity to tie the Elks for second position if the latter lose to the Moose tonight. If the American Legion wins in the final game with the miners the teams will finish the season in the respec- tive positions they now occupy
 So far this season the two lodge teams have met three times. The Moose lead in the interclub series, winning two out of the three games. By winning tonight the Elks can tie the series.
 Williams will work in the box for the Bills and be matched against Jimmy McCloskey, who is leading the league in the number of games won. Coughlin for the Elks and Gamara for the Moose will do the receiving.

 LIST UNCHANGED
E. McCIoskey Still Leads but Margin Is Cut-Parma-

Relative positions Of batters i'll the City League remained virtually unchanged last week, according to averages made public today by League officials. Of the players who have been in games most of the season, E. MeCloskey, J. Me Cloehey and Parmakoff occupy first, steond and third places respectively
 Nominally Bobby Coughlin is in second place with an average of .500 but his record is fer only a single game. Gene MeCloskey's ay- craze, although over 100 points higher than Jim's, and Parmakoff's B. took another big slump, falling from .609 to .53S. Jim McCloskeY's 8 dropped from .444 to .429. Parma koff's jumped from 400 to .421 and he is giving Jimmy a real contest for second place. Woodland was the only one of the old players to climb into the 300 class during the week, making a gain of 80 points and boosting his average from .26S to .34S.

one navy officer. Nothing will be done in regard to Goat Island until the Alameda site has been definitely assured by Congress. However, the main factor for a naval base is good railroad supply facilities, and it is obvious that Goat Island falls short of the fundamental requirement.
 The virtual abandonment of Goat Island by the navy has brought forth the suggestion that the bay islet be used az a terminus for trans continental railroads. The railroad moles run out into the bay within two miles of the island today, and the water between the end of the present moles and the island is uniformly shallow, railroad officials point out. Approximately two miles would be cut off the ferry trip be- tween the Oakland moles and San Francisco if Goat Island were used as terminus, railroad men state.
 However, naval officials say that no one railroad will be given mon- opoly of Goat Island in =egept .it is thrown open to the transportation companies. All railroads twill be given an equal right to use the island as a terminal base.s Buta the island could not be used as a rail road terminus if the navy made use of it as naval base.
