American League batsmen when the
final averages are compiled. And
who will say he talks wildly when
he says he has a good chance? Cos
lin had a merry argument with Al
Simmons, OF the Mackmen, in the
lobby of the Alamac Hotel here
Wednesday.
AS an upshot Of their talk Goslin
wagered the Mackman 800 that he
would outhit him this season. He
offered to spot Bill Lamar rs points
for the same bet, but the wise lad
from Rockville, Md, declined with
thanks. Since making that gentle
mans wager with Simmons Goslin
has been considering the situation.
He now believes that, not only will
he finish ahead of Simmons, but
that he stands an excellent chance
of finishing on top of the league.

As q sample of Goslin's batting

done since his attack of pleurisy.

on the morning Of May Z he was
clamoring to get into a game in

Because Of the bitterly cold

of the entire series. Though
his absence cost the club dearly.
They were looking far ahead.

FREEDOM OF AMERICA FROM EP- lDEMlCS IS REPORTED BY
 HEALTH DEPARTMENT

BOSTON, Jan. 19. (P)-The United States has enjoyed absolute freedom from yellow fever epidemics for pe- riod of 21 years as result of prevent i've steps taken by the Public Health service. To insure exclusion of this prolific death-dealing diseases, off cers of the Public Health Service are constantly on vigil at the quarantine stations in this country.
 Surgeon General Hugh s. Cumming made these statements in review of the history of yellow fever.
 Yellow fever, pr. Cumming said, is an infection with which the general public is not familiar. Its geograph- ical range is limited and it is transmit ted to man by a species of mosquito, which is the only known agent of transmission.

 Dan Cupid had a slightly better year in Anchorage during 1926 than in the year previous, for fl marriages were performed in 1926 and only 40 in 1925.
 In the presence of a large number of friends, funeral services were held for the late Mrs. Julia Phinn, aged pioneer resident of the Interior who passed away at her Fairbanks home last week
 At special meeting at the Dis trict Court, held in Fairbanks last week, admittance to citizenship of the United States was granted the following: Charles Emile Nicolet, Gustaf Scharf, Alexander Niemi, Carl Alfred Johnson and Elizabeth Free man Mulrooney
 The number of deaths occurring in Anchorage during 1926 was 27, ac- cording to the records This was one nose than the number of births, in the local hospital during the past year, but was a marked decrease in comparison with the number of deaths in 1925, when 46 occurred. The number of deaths recorded is also the smallest during a period of five years.
 Mrs. H. A. Mills of Anchorage is the proud possessor of a letter from the White House in which gracious acknowledgment is made of the re- ceipt of two books which she sent to Mrs. Calvin Coolidge shortly before Christmas, to show the first lady of the land what the women of Alaska are doing and hoping thereby to in- terest her in Alaska and Alaskans. One of the books was the latest edi- tion of the Year Book of the Feder- ation of Alaska Woman's Clubs, con- taining a review of the club act1v1- ties for the year, and the other was the book of canning and cooking re- cipes compiled by Mrs. Mills as an aid to the student loan fund of the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines.
