April issue of Current History, he predicts that the time is not far distant when the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes will be as well known and as popular with sight seers as Yellowstone Park.
 Dr. Griggs gives some interesting facts concerning the immensity of the cataclysm which produced the remarkable valley. He ayers that the eruption of Mount Katmai in 1912 was one of the greatest vol canic disturbances of historic times. The fact that t occurred in a part of the world almost uninhabited accounts for the small notice taken of the upheaval. However, the vol canic dust which was discharged in to the upper layers of the atmoz- phere had far-reaching effects. Tt was responsible for the notoriously cold summer of 1912 by intercept ing the suns heat.
 One of the important results Of the volcanic eruption was the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes. This nat ural phenomenon has been frequent ly described in scientific papers. It is a large valley whose floor is per foratel with a million orifices from which issue jets of steam. These vents, large and small, are called fumaroles. The explorers did their cooking over these steam jets.
 Although the eruption of Mount Katmai resulted in depositing en- ormous quantities of the ash over the surrounding country, within few miles of the wonder valley are lakes and forests which cannot be excelled anywhere. The forests are destined to be a game preserve as important as Yellowstone Park. The lakes and streams abound with trout.
 Whether the road to the valley of Ten Tousand Smokes is built by the Territory of Alaska or by the Fed eral Government, it should be un- dertaken as soon as possible. The scenic wonders of Katmai's crater. the marvellous valley of smokes and the magnificent lakes and forests

GRADE LOCAL TRACK
IN DETERMINATION
TO SET NEW RECORD
Local Racing Driuers Will
Go After BoIling's Mark
April I.

Determined to make the races as
fast as possible and break Johnny
Bolling's track record of 1:19, the
association of San Antonio automo-
bile racing drivers, promoting the
Easter Sunday race meet at the two
mile San Antonio speedway, south of
the city, has let contract for grad
ing and rolling the track. This is
the first time the track has been
graded since the meet of January,
1921, when Bolling's record was made.
So far, % entries have been re-
ceived, mostly local but several from
other parts Of the South, for the four
automobile races and two motorcycle
events which will make up the pro-
gram on April 1.
The association has resolved TO
make the meet snappy affair, with
short races and lots Of entries, and
has set so cents, including tax, as
the maximum admission charge in
order TO encourage public support
with view of staging a profitable
race meet once every month. Trans
portation facilities from the end Of
the South Flores street car line to
the track will be provided for those
without automobiles.

SOUTH AND COAST ARE
PRODUCTIVE OF MOST
MAJOR LEAGUE STARS
Cobb and Chance Say It's
Because There's More
Playing Weather.

Philadelphia. March 17.-In recent
years many Of the major league stars
have come from either the sunny
South or the Pacific coast.
incidentally, great many of the
big stars in baseball call small towns
home. rather than the big cities.
Why SO? Does the South and the
Pacific coast offer more possibilities
for the development of ball players?
Is there more chance for the. small
town youngster than the big city
kid?
During the recent meeting of the
American League in this city, the
question was put to Frank Chance,
who halls from California. and Ty
Cobb, who is the outstanding figure
in baseball from the South.
Both seemed TO have the same
viewpoint. 1t was this:
The more you play baseball the
better you progress. The climate in
the South and on the coast makes it
possible for the youngsters of those
two sections to play the national
pastime two or three months longer
than is possible in other parts of the
country.
Both agreed that in the small
town baseball was the chief amuse-
ment of most youngsters because
there was little else to do. Also thS1sv
was more room to play than the big
city usually affords.

Youngs had made fine catch of
Hooper's dinky fly back Of second
base. Mcclellan was safe when Ban
croft pulled Long George Kelly off
the first sack. Mostil was passed.
Bancroft and johnson had a confer

by the Sox and Giants is blamed by
some. He didn't look to see if any

criticizes another.
Back in 1911 the New York Giants
played the Philadelphia Americans
in the world series. A number of
star players on both clubs were
signed TO write newspaper articles of
the games.
Every baseball fan recalls the
Baker home-run incidents of the
1911 series. In one of the gaNes,
Frank Baker of the Athletics, with
Rube Marquard of the Giants pitch
ing. hit home-run in a pinch and
broke up the ball game.
In Mathewson's story of the game
the next day, which he may or may
not have written, he took Marquard
TO task. In the article it was pointed
out that Marquard pitched right in
Bakers groove, and his poor judg-
ment in so doing cost the game.
The next game was pitched by
Mathewson. For eight innings he
held the Athletics scoreless. With
one down in the ninth and Baker
up. Matty pitched one where the
Philly slugger liked it, and n home
run that tied up the game resulted.
The Athletics won out in extra in
nings.
The next day in story Of the
game. Vanguard in an article that
appeared over his signature. ridi-
culed Matty for his poor judgment
in pitching to Baker. 1t is said that
the Giants took sides in the matter
and the two articles caused much i'll
feeling on the team.

owners tried to pass rule that
would prevent any player who
