MAKING FIRST
ALASKAN TRIP
Paul G. Reddington Here
to Confer with Game
Commission Officers

For the purpose of getting ae-
quainted with the problems OF
wild life in Alaska and confer
ing with II. w. Terhune, execu'
tive officer of the Alaska Game
Commission and C. T. Gardner,
president of the Alaska Game
Commission on matters mutually
concerning them. Paul G. Reding-
ton. Chief of the Biological Sur
vey of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, arrived last
night on the Alaska.

declared Mr.. Redington. Il was in
Ketchikan for six hours while the
boat was unloaded end met thu
people of the U. S. Forest Service
there and a good many fox farm
ers. I was particularly glad TO
meet the farmers and learn at
first hand of some of the problems
confronting them," he said.
Pleased With Cooperation
my time in Alaska will all
be spent in Juneau and its yicin

Circle trip to the interior and
westward on my first visit to tie

Mr.. Redington said. He will re
turn to the States on the south

about ten days.
Il have been particularly pleas
ed. since coming to the Biological
Survey at the splendid co-opera-
ton the officers of the depart
ment have received from peopl ,
in the Territory in enforcing the
game laws. 1t is of vast import
ance to have them enforced. II
the wild life of the Territory Is
to be perpetuated. Enough stock
for breeding purposes should be
saved and still allow for an
adequate take for fur and sport.
In this way the wild life will not
die out and future generations
will be assured both the sport
of hunting and the furs produced. :"
said Mr.. Redington.
Problems Are Similar
"The wild animal problem is
much the same as that of the
forests, if properly handled, they
can be used in such way as
not to do away with the supply.

Irish Hope to Chalk Up
Up Fifth Victory of
Season.
ARE FEARED
Basket Prowess of South
Blenders Respected.

BU Times Special
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 23-The
powerful University of Notre Dame
basketball squad invaded this city
today for its clash tonight with the
University of Minnesota netmen.
The Gophers have a wholesome
respect for the Hoosiers' ability,
having suffered a 24-to-19 setback
at the hands of the Irish last season.
The Notre Dame team already has
won its first four games from
Armour Tech, Illinois Wesleyan,
Iowa and Northwestern and expects
to annex their fifth in a row here
tonight.
Coach George Koegan of Notre
Dame today said he probably would
start Capt. Jerome Jachym and
Frank Grove at forwards, John
Colerick at center and Jimmy Bray
and Ike Voedisch at guards.
Jachym, the only veteran on the
team, is the nucleus of the fast
stepping South Bend aggregation.
Groves speed and eye for the bas-
ket more than make up for his
short stature. Colerick substituted
for the flashy Nyikos last season
and is dependable under the basket.
Among Koegan's substitutes are
Donovan, Smith, Newbold. McCar-
thy, Kizer and ONell, guards; Vo-
gelwede and Hamilton, centers, and
Forsee and Victoryn, forwards.

Packo Got Draw.

Joe Packo, Toledo who comes

round scrap with Roy Wallace, got
a draw with Chuck Virgins at FIT.

season in which decisions were rem

the third man in the ring on the
occasion OF the Virgins Packo

thought Chuck was entitled to the

Virgins cleverness at infighting
was offset by the heavy punching of
Packo.
The following year Wallace met
Virgins at Tomlinson Hall and
Chuck lost on a foul, although he
was away out in front when the low
blow was struck. Unprecedented fans
who witnessed both fights admit
Packo made much better showing
against Virgins than did Wallace.
Roy's intense partisans claim, how
ever, that Packo has gone back" in
the last two years and that Roy is
improving all the time.

Having just conducted a nation

with another important cue attrac-

Cooler this week handled the
match in which DR.. L. P. Macklin

Eight players drawn from six
western regions will come here for
the tournament, which Cooler plans
tentatively to start in the middle Of
February. The date is optional
with him and he will not fix it
definitely for a while.
Six of these players will be re-

AND HE LOST GAME

A LII the runs that were scored
IN off Gray's delivery came in
the inning in which he suddenly
became wilder than even a peace
full resident of Borneo.
Usually, Gray could work the cor
ners to the best possible advantage.
In this one particular inning he
was just missing his mark. I feel
that am conservative in saying
1 called at least twenty pitched balls
that didn't miss the plate more
than an inch or so. In a great,
many cases the count was three
balls and two strikes on the batter.
The only hit made in that in
ming in the entire game, unless my
memory is at fault, was the fuke
single made by Pat Dougherty on
a badly bounding ball to the short
stop. 1t would have been an easy
cut had it not been for the false
hop.
The following inning Gray was
back on his game and held the
White Sox at his mercy as he did
during the rest of the game. The
enc wild inning, however, was fatal

Stanford May Produce Surprise
in Grid Fray With Pittsburgh

There are those inclined to think
Stanford, because of her two defeats
this season, will be easy pickings for
the indicated Pittsburgh team
when they meet Jan. 2 in the an
nual Tournament of Roses game
at Pasadena, Cal.
Perhaps so, but not so easy as
the dope might indicate.
Stanford met defeat twice this
season, at the hands of colleges not
in the Pacific Conference, and tied
the strong Southern California team
that was beaten by one point by
Knute Rockne's Notre Dame outfit.
Nevertheless, one must give Stan
ford an even chance of trimming

be given, but one is enough-Pop

ComiSkey and his Office help usually

ton, otherwise Gray might not have
been permitted to remain on the
rubber and figure in a freak bit Of
pitching that otherwise couldn't
have happened. He would have car
ried out the thought of the popular
song and said "Good-by."
If dolly" Gray is living, and I
certainly hope he is, am sure he
will recall the game in question, for
l regard it as without an equal from
the angle Of good and bad pitching.
Il y y
Gray was southpaw along the
lines of Herb Pennock of the YAM
KEGS. He didn't have a world of
stuff, but he had plenty of pOise
and as rule great control. In
this particular game he was draw
ing the corners too fine.

WALKED EIGHT BATTERS
NAN you imagine pitcher work.
~ ing a game in which he al
lowed only one scratch hit, yet was
beaten soundly, because OF one bad
inning, which featured a sudden
lapss of control?
The game was staged in Chicago.
1t was the first half of a double
header. T always have believed
Gray should have been credited
with no-hit performance, which
would have made the incident all
the freakier.
If my memory serves me correct
Iy, Pat Daugherty hit the ball that
was scored a hit. 1t took a bad
bound as it neared the Shortstop,
causing him momentarily to juggle
the ball, losing the runner at first by
an eyelash.
In that same inning. Gray, who
prior to the one bad inning pitched
in fine style and who kept it up
after the explosion, gave eight bases
on balls, seven of them in. success
sion.

Ordinarily such thing couldn't
happen since the manager would
derrick his pitcher before he, got
into so much trouble. But, as I
have explained, Washington had
weak hurting staff.
